Aditi responded quickly, was communicative, and receptive to all my needs and requests. I needed help taking care of my kitties and bunny during a busy workweek and Aditi was a lifesaver! Thank you! :)

Jennifer O was the best! It was great to be able to visit my daughter knowing my Willow was being well cared for! She even came over before I left so she would be a familiar face! The daily updates and pics really helped me feel not so far away. I immediately took to Jennifer’s friendly, trustworthy, & knowledgeable air and her gentle, caring nature. I can’t rave about her enough! Your pet will be in good hands with Jennifer O!

Deedra, was extremely helpful and went out of her way to do a few extra things that were needed and wanted. She worked with my dog originally a bit skittish with new people and won her over. She was persistent, super friendly and very understanding, and I would recommend her to anyone.

About: Every pet is unique, and I love discovering what makes yours happiest — whether it’s long walks, gentle play, or quiet cuddle time. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and treat every animal like family. Clients appreciate my reliable updates, flexibility, and the genuine bond I build with their pets. Your furry friend’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. Your fluffy friend will the center of my attention for their stay, whether it's just for a walk or sleepover they will be loved and taken care of. I live in an apartment, but their are two parks within walking distance so they will definitely have as much outside time as they want.

Jennah was amazing! I know who to call when I need pet sitting. She went above and beyond and was super understanding when an issue came up. I felt comfortable with her being in my home and she was communicative which is all you can ask. My kitties were given the best love and care🥰 she was especially understanding with my senior cat and that means so much! I’m always so anxious to leave her.

This is the first time we’ve used Rover, so I was a bit nervous. when we signed up and Reece agreed to watch our 14 yr old golden doodle. My fears were allayed the minute Reece came over for a meet and greet. She was so good with our old dog. I went over all the instructions with her and she made sure she understood every detail. We were away for 3 days and got daily updates and photos. Vinny was in heaven, being walked every couple of hours and having Reece’s full attention at each visit. I’m sure he missed her when we came home!! We will definitely be asking for Reece the next time we need someone to watch Vinny. Thank you Reece 😊.

Kristin took care of our kitties Poody and Ozzy while we were on a European cruise and we couldn’t have asked for anyone more dependable and compassionate! She sent detailed updates, great photos every day, brought in our mail and watered our new container gardens. We were at such ease knowing both kitties were being loved and our home was being checked on daily, while we were out of the country. Kristin loves animals and we will definitely use her again soon! 🩵

I’ve had the pleasure of booking her every single time I need someone to take care of my two fur babies. She does an amazing job every time. She consistently follows directions, is always punctual, and communicates exceptionally well. If for any reason she can’t make it at the scheduled time, she always reaches out ahead of time to explain the situation and check whether the adjustment works for me. I truly appreciate the communication more than anything else. I especially appreciate how accommodating she is when last-minute situations come up. She’s always willing to work around changes to make sure my pets are still cared for. Even when I give her plenty of notice in advance, she keeps it in mind and is always happy to help. I’ve continuously booked with her because she’s the first person I think of whenever I need someone reliable to care for my pets, and I fully plan to keep booking with her going forward.

Anthony has been a great help with our pug, Max. Max is really comfortable with him. It gives us peace of mind that Max is in good hands while we're not home. We work all day. We feed Max brrakfast then walk him and spend a little time with him in the morning then we have to go to work. Anthony comes twice a day to spend time with Max, take him for a walk, feed him dinner and this has been a big help. Thank you, Anthony!
