“Took great care of Khoda; Spent time with him, took him for walks, kept me updated daily with photos of him, he definitely did not want to come back home lol Thank you again for taking care of my dog and ensuring his attention-needs were met. I'll definitely be in contact for future trips/vacations, I know he can't wait to come back and see his human and dog friends again!”
“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Sarah is caring and compassionate with us and our dog. She provides us updates on how our pet is adapting to his new environment. Our dog loves being with her pets. It’s like a play date for him.”
“Patrick is wonderful. He has watched my puppy and now my senior boy. My senior boy had a little trouble adjusting and Patrick was so kind and easy to communicate with. He provided much appreciated photos and updates and I never once had to worry about my buddy.”
“Michelle took amazing care of our dogs while we were out of town! Her house and yard are a dog’s a paradise. She was also super responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend her for boarding!!”
“Vivian and her family did a wonderful job taking care of our older min pin, Annie. I was sent several pictures everyday which was so comforting, and she looked as happy as can be. I could see she was treated like family and was very spoiled! We would highly recommend Vivian. We would use her again without thinking twice! She even went out of her way and bought Annie a large box of Cheerios which we forgot to drop off. So kind of her! Vivian was a wonderful sitter ❣️”
“Tina was great. The nice perk is she has a big yard and a doggie door so my Yorkie could go in and out of her house whenever he wanted to. He is very attached to people and she took very good care of him!”
“Emily took excellent care of my Barkley while I was traveling for a family wedding. Barkley was dealing with some seasonal allergies, and Emily sent me updates daily to let me know how he was feeling. He needed to take some medications and supplements during his stay, and Emily did a great job providing those, as needed. This was Barkley's first visit, and he enjoyed exploring the fenced yard and spending time with Emily's dogs. It was nice to know that Barkley was well cared for while I was away!”
“Lindsay was so kind and caring - she went above and beyond to make our doggy Cricket feel safe and secure on the first night that she stayed with her. Lindsay kept us updated with texts, pictures, and a video. Cricket had so much fun at her house! And, Lindsay was able to accommodate our last minute boarding request. This was a wonderful experience for all of us!”
“For my first time using Rover, I was very pleased with Augusta. She is very nice, calm and patient. I appreciated her good communication which gave me peace knowing my fur baby was in good hands.”
“Carol is amazing. She was loving and kind with our pup and we were extremely comfortable with her when we left our pup at her home. We received regular photos and updates on sleeping, eating and playing. I highly recommend Carol!!!!”
“I highly recommend Renae for anyone needing a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! It was my first time leaving my Addie for a whole week but I felt at ease knowing Renae was taking care of her. Renae treated Addie like her own, including letting her play with her own dogs in her spacious yard. Renae showed how much she cared by making special food for Addie when she wasn’t eating well at first. The daily updates about how Addie was doing, always with a picture of short video made me feel confident that Addie was happy, healthy, and safe. Renae is so sweet and caring, and you can tell she really loves dogs. Knowing Addie was in such good hands made it much easier to leave and relax on vacation. I couldn't possibly say enough good things about Renae!”
“Our mini golden doodle loved spending the weekend with her new friends! Highly recommend! Received pics and videos the whole time! We will definitely be booking again! Thank guys for everything! 🥰”
“Gary and his partner were amazing! Great communication and updates. And my dog was so happy when I picked him up! They will be our new regular sitters. Highly recommend.”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“Johanna was absolutely excellent with my pup Mia. She kept me updated everyday by sending pictures and videos. Her dog Stella is very sweet and playful. She became to be a friend with my dog instantly. I enjoyed watching their play videos thanks to Johanne. We’ll definitely see Johanne again very soon.”

“Kaleigh really stepped up when the previous sitter canceled without even so much as a message. She obviously has a history of working with dogs. She was informative and easy to contact. I would definitely recommend and will keep her at the top of my list next time I need a sitter.”
“This was our very first Rover booking and it couldn’t have been better! Allison was absolutely fabulous taking care of Lil Cat! She took pictures and was very communicative while we were on vacation. She also spent time with him & now they are the best of buddies! We will definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all of my childhood. I just started this as a side hustle, and I absolutely love it! I love meeting new pups and being a helping hand to somebody as well! I work a full time job outside of pet sitting. I’m gone from 10am-4pm and my off days are Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. My schedule is very flexible, so if there are any issues with my work schedule, it can be moved around. I’m typically gone between 6-8 hours depending on travel time as well. I stay at the client’s house so that way their pets are comfortable in their own home and environment. I do an initial meet and greet before the date needed to pet sit so the pets meet me and recognize me while i’m staying with them.
“Jessica took excellent care of our cats while we were away! She maintained ongoing communication throughout the visits and went above and beyond to make sure our girls were comfortable. We felt so relaxed on our trip knowing they were in such good hands!”
About: *I will not offer cat services in my home due to my husky, sometimes she’s has her prey drive intact & other times she does not. But I will come to you.* Watch my mom’s cat, my sisters and my sons while they travel. Took care of my dad’s 17 Siamese breeder cats while he was hospitalized as well. If you don’t mind if my sister comes along, she provides excellent and outstanding kitty care. No extra charge for her, I pay her out of my own pocket! She will have a full background check completed in the coming weeks to carry along as well!
“WOW!!! How fantastic it is to find someone who loves your pets (kittens) as much as Dayna. From the first meet & greet we new Dayna was the perfect pet sitter. Bowie & Iggy took to her immediately. Dayna made sure we got pics everyday at both visits and we even got some FaceTime in on Sunday morning. They were well cared for...and didn't miss us quite as much as I hoped they would LOL. (Translated...they got plenty of playtime & kitten cuddles with someone who genuinely cares). Definitely a repeat customer when the next trip comes up. 😻😽😺”
About: I've been taking care of cats and cat sitting since I was about 13, for neighbors, friends, and family. Additionally, my family has three cats of our own! Their names are Onyx, Mabel, and Casper. They are all rescue cats as well. I feed them, change their litter, and play with them every day.
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats in my household my entire life. I have trained puppies all the way to providing extra love and TLC to senior dogs and cats. I have 2 cats and one Pitbull mix at home :) My Pitbull mix is reactive who has improved by leaps and bounds due to my training--I am very familiar with reading a dog's body language and reacting accordingly. I work part time as a First Responder at the local EMS agency and am recently starting school to further my career. I have a very flexible schedule and I will bring patience, fun and lots of love to your furbabies! I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for one year at a local vet clinic--I am comfortable with medication administration and have experience with recognizing medical conditions in our fur babies as well. Medication and injections are free of charge! I will provide you with updates and pictures at each visit unless specified otherwise so just let know! :) My intent is make you, the pet parent., feel at ease with me coming into your home and caring for your pets. Whatever is instructed by the pet parents will be completed. Guaranteed routine feeding and watering to be done at every visit. Any mess made from your pet will be cleaned and taken care of during the time I am taking care of them. I am not responsible for any destructive behavior from the pet that causes destructive damage to the home or property. PLEASE NOTE: I do NOT offer continuous care as I do need to leave to care of my own family since my husband is an over the road truck driver. Thank you for understanding. My house-sitting rate includes me conducting 30-45 minute drop ins every 6-8 hours. If extra time is needed, just let me know and I will try to accommodate as best as I can; an additional fee or an increase fee may be applied.
About: I’ve been around cats my whole life and know that every cat is different. Some are social and playful, while others prefer a quiet space and a slower approach. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, medication if needed, and sticking to your cat’s normal routine. Whether your cat wants attention or simply someone they can feel safe around, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and treated like one of my own while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of cats since I was 10 years old. I've had cats and kittens throughout my life and have tended to stray cats in the neighborhood, giving them food and shelter. Experience cleaning litter boxes and giving flea and tick medicine.
About: I've taken care of cats, moody and sociable, ever since I was a little girl. I have experience caring for senior cats and administering medication with my childhood cat, Jellybean who lived to be 20. I now care for my own cat, Dakota, who I have had since I was 10 years old. I have frequently been asked to drop-in on my friends' and neighbors' cats when they are away. I have no problem cleaning up hairballs and litter!
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
About: I have had cats and other pets since I was a child. Now as a grandmother, I still have my own cats. My cats are my babies and I take care of them as such. They both are cuddlers and I'd love to cuddle yours. I have administered medicine to my cats when it was needed.

“Renae had a welcome sign out with our dog's names on it at our first meeting. She sent us a picture and updates about how our dogs were adjusting to their new surroundings. She is very thorough in taking information about the pets she watches. We felt confident that our dogs were being well cared for!”
About: I live in Scottdale but I’m very familiar with ALL surrounding areas. I’m a homemaker, so I’m available practically any time to come offer care to your furry (or not so furry!) loved ones! Currently we have 2 dogs, a purebred 32lb female Siberian Husky & a Designer Breed 15lb female Pomsky. They are both crate trained & house trained. Both are fully registered ESA (Emotional Support Animals) & I take that very seriously as to their training & how exactly I want them to behave. I recently lost my female German Shepherd; & a year prior my male Siberian Husky. My male Siberian was epileptic so I’m experienced in offering meds and know that having them on hand & on time IS A MUST for things of this nature! My shepherd was very elderly (about 14) & required a lot of extra love, care & attention also. So I am also compassionate about animals that need some extra loving. *I offer very basic kitty care. I cannot host cats in my home due to the prey drive of my husky, sometimes she’s ok with them, other times not. *I’ll do feedings for lizards as I have had a few bearded dragons myself as well so I’m knowledgeable here also. (But under no circumstances ask me to care for your snake, or your spider!) ***I offer potty breaks, walks, playtime, feed & water breaks, treat time, medication administration ALL in my standard fee.

We can almost always work out an agreement. No fence but my yard is safe, multiple leashes, 2 porches, in a friendly community for walks. Small home but very lovable and friendly and cozy. My dogs are crate trained but good with other dogs, socialized, UTD on shots, but my girls are not spayed so if you have a male I allow ONLY altered ones at this time.
About: Animals have been a passion of mine my entire life! I have owned and loved cats and dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 10. I would love to show that same love to your babies, too! I am available to do in-house stays, walking, play dates, and much more! I work full-time, but work from home so that makes it easy for me to care for your furry friend. My weekends are usually filled with playing with my puppies, but I would love to make time for your pets to join us for walks or play dates! I have a fenced in yard and an open floor plan home that allows for plenty of room to play, rain or shine. I live on a quiet street that makes walking your pet a breeze. All doors remain shut in my home to ensure no nosy pups can get in to things that they should not. I am big on taking pictures and can keep you updated on the status of your pet to ensure you feel comfortable with leaving your pet in my care!

About: I’m Emily! A little about me: I love to run, lift, paint, and read. I am currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh studying Speech Pathology and Audiology who’s home for the summer! I've been a pet owner myself for about 5 years now. My family currently has three cats and has had a dog and another cat in the past. Within the last seven years I have dog and cat sat for a lot of my extended family and friends. I'm currently on the hunt for a part-time job for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands to look after and care for pets. I also have my own car and am hanging out with friends a lot, so I am always around. I am very diligent with making sure doors and windows are shut and locked to ensure that your pets do not go in or out (if they're indoor pets/ not on a leash) as I have to do that with my own pets! I also realize as it grows hotter, animals become dehydrated and hot as well, and I am careful to make sure water bowls are filled, and there is water during walks as well.
About: I do work full-time, but am home in the evenings. I LOVE animals, but do not feel that I have the time needed to be a 'full time' caregiver. This is perfect for my lifestyle! I would treat your pet like a part of my family. I've always had dogs growing up and love having them as companions. I would walk your pet in the mornings and evenings. Looking forward to meeting you and your special pet!! I can accommodate special requests and am happy to answer any questions that you might have. References are available upon request. Thank you for reading my profile. I currently work full time, but would love to come and stay with your pet to provide day and nighttime companionship. I would adhere to the schedule for your pet and would not adjust (no people food, etc). I would let your fur babies out in the morning, again at lunch time, and would be at your residence for the rest of the day and night, starting at 4:30pm on workdays, and all day and night on the weekends. I would care for your pets as if they were my own. I take pet sitting very seriously and want to be the person that you could depend on to look after your fur family.

About: If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely care about your pets instead of just checking off a to-do list, you’ve found the right person. I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and understand that every pet has a different personality and routine. I currently have a large dog of my own, so I’m comfortable with big breeds, energetic pets, and those that need a little extra patience. Whether your pet wants to play, go for walks, get belly rubs, or just have someone nearby while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like they’re my own because that’s exactly how I’d want someone to care for mine. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my schedule. My work schedule changes from week to week, but I do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s needs. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a walk, feeding, playtime, or overnight care in your home, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for everyone. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. All services will be provided in your home, where your pet can stay in a familiar environment and stick to their normal routine. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, walks, training, or special needs. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, and I’ll treat your home and your animals with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.
“Such a pleasure working with Christina, she is SO good with our dogs. I feel really confident in her and trust her with my pets. I highly recommend her and she is a great communicator as well!”
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old! I have always had a love for being around animals. I am a college student, so currently my summer is mostly free! I have a good amount of availability at any time of the week. I have a fenced in yard so both of my dogs can run free, yet stay safe! Both of my cats spend their time indoors.
About: I started training dogs at a very young age, and decided to make it into a career a few years ago. I specialize in fearful and reactive dogs, the overlooked and misunderstood. I have open availability Saturday through Tuesday! Even on the other days I am working, I’m always working with dogs. We can always work around work schedules If your dog is up for it- I will include your dog in my daily life as if they’re part of the family. If they prefer a place to be calm by themselves, I have a few runs to offer for that as well. I also do in home training, as well as meeting up at dog friendly locations depending on the need of the dog.
About: Hi! My name is Brittany and I have been taking care of pets since I was 6 years old. I have tons of knowledge about all types of animals, from dogs, cats, reptiles and even farm animals. I love them all & I will treat any pet like they are my own. I currently work full time. I am off on the weekends and will have extra time to play and love / cuddle with your fur baby. I have a fenced in yard. I welcome any pet into my home and would treat them as my own. They would get the run of the house, bed, couch etc. as you would like, and my own pet would get. Also, please make sure all pets are flea treated before arrival, as I have my own dog, and this will maintain a clean and safe environment for my family, dog and as well as your pet.

Of course only if the owner request will they be in it.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was about 10 years old. They always seem to love me and I love them as well. I also have experience in training as well I’m available all the time as I’m unemployed at the moment. I have plenty of time to spend time and care for pets. I have a dog of my own and he was the sweetest. He gets along with other dogs well I can easily create a dog if needed. But I do have another dog in the home. He is very sweet and gets along with other animals very well.
About: I graduated with a BS in animal science with a companion animal emphasis, obtaining knowledge/experiences through classes, labs, internships, and employment. I worked as a veterinary assistant and kennel tech throughout undergrad seasonally and for several months post-grad at 2 different clinics. I also worked as a wildlife rescue & rehab intern and aquarist intern during undergrad, focusing on animal care and husbandry. Lastly, I have owned/helped care for family pets almost my whole life (including rodents, rabbits, and a dog) and have pet sat dogs and cats for family friends/neighbors on the side. I am beginning a full time gig on July 13. I will not be working a typical 9-5, so my availability may vary week to week and we can discuss further details upon inquiry! I will not make myself available if the time allotted is not appropriate to truly care for your pet. I deeply care about animals and would love to do what I can, especially since I cannot have my family pup & chinchilla with me at school. I will surely abide by clients' wishes regarding their caretaking directions and preferences. I will also be mindful and respectful of being in another person's space, and clean up after myself and the fur babies.
About: *Hello! My name is Jessica and I cannot wait to pet sit for you! I have roughly 15 years of experience with pet/house sitting. With me, you'll be able to enjoy vacation, spend time with family, or whatever it may be with reassurance and a sigh of relief knowing that your little furry family member is in good hands. *I started off many years ago cat sitting for 2 cats and one of them needed a lot of care including medication twice a day. Over the years, that led to dog sitting 2 dogs. Pretty soon, that family referred me to another family, they did the same, and next thing I know I had about 4 different families that I was sitting for. I recently took some time off, but I am ready to start again! *For my job, I start at midnight until usually 8:30am. At some point during the day, I do online college courses (I'm done with schooling at the end of this year), so that means I will be able to spend basically the entire day with your pet! *Not only will booking with me help you, but it also benefits me because I thoroughly enjoy being around animals. Where I live, I am not allowed pets so anytime I am able to help people and it so happens to involve an animal, I am happy! *For pricing, I'm willing to talk about it. I will work with you especially if you have any additional services that may need done like cleaning up your house, etc. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you consider me when choosing a pet sitter. I work full time but start at midnight until 8:30am. That gives me the ability to be able to be at your house all day with your pet(s)! That means they won't be lonely while you're gone! In your house, I will give your dog all the comfort that it needs because I'm sure not having their owner around will be an adjustment at first. I am able to take your pet on as many walks as needed, follow whatever food schedule that is required, and have as much cuddle time as they let me! I would care for your pet with the mindset that this is a little family member and treat it with the kindness and respect all animals deserve and I never bring anyone else over to the client's house.
About: Hello and welcome! My name is Erika. I have a 3 year old who loves dogs and has wonderful dog manners. I am a SAHM and looking to get my dog fix! I love loving on and catering to your animal(s)! Long walks and vigorous play time are a critical role in my canine care routine. As always I pride myself in having the utmost respect of your already set routine with your loved one, and try to make the time spent with your animal flawless! I have been working with animals for 15 years and have a load of experience handling all sorts! Having worked at Waynesburg animal hospital, PVSEC emergency unit in Pittsburgh, Nemacolin woodlands with the wildlife academy and Pittsburgh zoo in the educational department. I have unwavering confidence in caring for your pet! Catering to their needs, and yours too! For owners interested in overnight stays or doggy drop off! A tour of my living spaces, accommodations I provide and cages are provided upon request.
About: I have taken care of animals on my own for over 4 years. I love all animals. I currently have 2 cats and one dog who I love very much. All my pets are really spoiled, in my home they come first they are my children. I would love to watch dogs and act as if they are my own. My dog is currently a puppy and he hyper and loves to play. He is extremely friendly. I can help with basic training like sit, paw, down, up. All my experience with animals has come from having many on my own. So I self taught myself. Animals deserve all the love possible. I currently do not work so I have all the time to give any dog attention and love. I can help with potty training and other simple things. And will keep your dog company and make sure they are not alone I have a yard it’s not fenced but I do have a puppy who would keep your dogs company and they will have a playmate because he’s super friendly and playful.
About: I’ve been around pets all my life. From the moment I was born we had cats and my family members had dogs. My cousin trains dogs and has been for 3 years, she gets them as little puppies and I am always around them. I walk dogs frequently and am around them frequently! I help a lot of people dog sit! I would like to get some extra cash and exercise while I am at school! I have an easy schedule this semester and would love to walk a dog or care for a pet. I’ve dog sitted many times before. Everytime I make sure I take them on walks, make sure they pee/poop, and feed them properly, but you can’t forget to love on them!! At home I love on my pets a lot, feed them, and change their litter box.
About: What sets me apart is my attention to detail and my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—whether your cat is shy, energetic, or senior, I adjust my care to make them feel safe and comfortable. I’m also patient and attentive, which helps when caring for nervous cats or those who need extra time to warm up. I have experience with administering basic medications, maintaining strict routines, and recognizing changes in behavior or health early on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a SAHW—I prioritize it just like any other responsibility. I plan my schedule to ensure I’m available for consistent visits, whether that’s morning, afternoon, or evening. I’m very mindful of keeping pets on their normal routine, so I build my day around their feeding, playtime, and care needs. I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible, whether in my home or my client’s home. In a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely—feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also make sure the space stays clean and your cat feels comfortable in their familiar environment. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe space with plenty of attention, enrichment, and a clean setup. I always prioritize safety, hygiene, and clear communication, and I send regular updates with photos.
About: I have been taking care of my own dogs and those of neighbors, family & friends for 15 years. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages and some with special needs. I’m on break from college for now, so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets! I can take care of pets weekdays/weeknights/weekends. I will use a harness and leash each time I take them out, unless otherwise directed (such as invisible fence). Their safety and happiness is my top priority.

“Took great care of Khoda; Spent time with him, took him for walks, kept me updated daily with photos of him, he definitely did not want to come back home lol Thank you again for taking care of my dog and ensuring his attention-needs were met. I'll definitely be in contact for future trips/vacations, I know he can't wait to come back and see his human and dog friends again!”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Sarah is caring and compassionate with us and our dog. She provides us updates on how our pet is adapting to his new environment. Our dog loves being with her pets. It’s like a play date for him.”
“Michelle took amazing care of our dogs while we were out of town! Her house and yard are a dog’s a paradise. She was also super responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend her for boarding!!”
“Emily took excellent care of my Barkley while I was traveling for a family wedding. Barkley was dealing with some seasonal allergies, and Emily sent me updates daily to let me know how he was feeling. He needed to take some medications and supplements during his stay, and Emily did a great job providing those, as needed. This was Barkley's first visit, and he enjoyed exploring the fenced yard and spending time with Emily's dogs. It was nice to know that Barkley was well cared for while I was away!”
“Lindsay was so kind and caring - she went above and beyond to make our doggy Cricket feel safe and secure on the first night that she stayed with her. Lindsay kept us updated with texts, pictures, and a video. Cricket had so much fun at her house! And, Lindsay was able to accommodate our last minute boarding request. This was a wonderful experience for all of us!”
“Our mini golden doodle loved spending the weekend with her new friends! Highly recommend! Received pics and videos the whole time! We will definitely be booking again! Thank guys for everything! 🥰”
“Gary and his partner were amazing! Great communication and updates. And my dog was so happy when I picked him up! They will be our new regular sitters. Highly recommend.”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“Jennifer is absolutely incredible!! She is so kind, responsive and flexible. Hank was so happy during his stay and treated like a king! Jennifer helped tremendously to put our minds at ease that Hank was taken very good care of during an extremely difficult time in our family. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“This was the 2nd time Nicole watched Pepper for me, this time it was for a couple of days. She takes such good care of him, treats him like he’s her own little guy. Nicole is amazing!”
“After a stay with Wade, I was worried that my dog Pisco wouldn't want to leave. Wade took Pisco on a couple of forest and town walks each day. He played with him. He took the kind of care that I would - and I love my dog. I was impressed and super appreciative. I highly recommend Wade if you need someone to care for your beloved pet.”
“Ashlyn was great! She made the the dropoff so easy, and we had no issues. She was great with sending pictures, and eased my worries big time. This was the first time we've left our little guy in someone else's care, and I was very nervous, but she did a fantastic job walking lots and taking care of him. We would definitely have her watch him again 😁✋”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Raeann was by far the best Rover we ever had. She took the time to meet our dog beforehand and was wonderful. She gave us updates with pictures very often and made us feel like we left our dog with an old friend. I'd recommend Raeann to any pet owner who wants a worry-free experience! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Crystal was fantastic for my pup who needs to be the only dog in the house. She was very kind and sent photographs and updates every day of our trip. She accommodated all of his emotional needs as well as physical.”
“Victoria is wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family for more than a weekend and she made us so comfortable. She sent twice daily updates with how he was doing along with pictures and videos. Franklin can be slow to warm up in a new place and often won't eat for the first day or two but he was completely fine there and ate all meals each day! We have used her again since and have had a similar experience. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate pet-sitter.”
