“We have used Edmy several times now to check in on our cat while we are out of town. Edmy is extremely reliable and trustworthy and communicative. My cat is pretty low maintenance but they always go above and beyond - checking our feeder, auto litter box, bringing in packages and mail. Would always recommend this Rover!”
“Tracy has been amazing. My dogs warmed right up to him. They have a few accidents, and Tracy cleaned them up very well. He also let me me know so I could make sure the pups weren't getting sick. He is easy to reach and always respectful of my home.”
“Ben is an older dog with a heart problem. I told Linda to use her own opinion to walk or just visit since the weather has been so hot. Since I have 2 dogs she visits Ben so he gets outside and walks Mazy our pup. She makes less money on a visit but she still doesn't wk Ben when its hot. This is a lady that cares about our pets like they are her own. I recommend Linda to any one that needs a caring dog friend”
“Angie took great care of my fur babies. One cat doesn’t take to people right away but that changed with Angie. Wanted to be petted and very talkative. I highly recommend Angie.”
“Lisa was great with our girls! Lucy required alot of special feeding and medication care which Lisa did well. Lucy is also very skittish with new people and, by day 2 she LOVED Lisa!! Would definitely request her services again and highly recommend!!”
“Brooklyn is awesome. Takes great care of the house and me importantly Edmund, my dog. He now like for her in the guest room! Hahaha. I'd say he's happy with her service as well.”
“Kristen is great! She sends updates and takes excellent care of my dog. Super reliable and responsive. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter or walker.”

“Jennifer is a favorite of mine and the dogs. They both love her. She's fantastic to work with, incredibly reliable, and just everything you hope for. Thank you so much, Jennifer!”
“We can't say enough wonderful things about Bree! She took care of our two cats, Coco and Buddy, with so much love and attention—it truly felt like she was treating them as her own. From the moment we met her, we knew our fur babies were in great hands. Bree went above and beyond in every way. She didn’t just make sure they were fed and comfortable— but kept them happy, and even managed to groom Coco better than we ever have (and that’s saying something!). Coco looked like she stepped out of a cat salon when we got home! We came home to two very content, well-loved cats—and a clean, organized space, which was such a bonus. If you're looking for a trustworthy, kind, and truly exceptional pet sitter, Bree is it. We feel so lucky to have found her.”
