“Abby helped us out last minute while we were out of country and our pet sitter had an emergency. She did a great job and I would definitely recommend her!”
2. Kara P.
“Kara is fantastic with our energetic lab puppy. She's so loving with animals and has been dependable for our dog walking needs. She's also really good with training out bad behaviors in our puppy. Thanks so much!”
3. Olivia S.
“Olivia was amazing!! Will definitely be booking again for more walks in the future.”
4. Shelby R.
“I hesitate to sing Shelby’s praises for fear she won’t have available walk times for my sweet boy! Let’s just start by saying my guy barks at unknowns loudly and often when he out on the lead. I heard him barking, went to check and there he was quiet and attentive with Shelby talking to him as she arrived for the appointment. I can tell this woman LOVES animals. Their walk was great, he was tired and I am convinced I have found his new dog walker! Great job, Shelby!! Thank you!!”
5. Samantha L.
“Sam did an incredible job taking care of my golden retriever, Tucker, while we were away. Tucker is a ball of energy, and Sam not only kept up with his daily walks and playtime but also made sure he felt loved and comfortable the entire time. I got regular updates and photos of Tucker, which gave me such peace of mind. When I came home, Tucker was happy and relaxed—a clear sign that he had been in great hands. I couldn't recommend Sam more for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
6. Reanna G.
“Reanna did such great job!”
7. Lindsey G.
“We have just recently hired Lindsey to walk our german shepherd on a weekly basis. She has been great to work with. She communicates well with us and is quick to respond to messages. She has been flexible with schedule changes. She messaged right away when she noted our dog had not eaten her morning food, concerned that maybe she was not feeling well.”
8. Lindsay C.
“Lindsay is so down to earth and friendly, Tink loves having her come over for walks. Usually if Tink doesn’t like the person she heads right home, but after a photo Lindsay took of Tink not wanting to come back inside, it truly showed how much Tink trusts her! She’s also extremely accommodating and very good at communicating schedule changes etc. We can’t say enough good things about you!”
9. Victoria P.
“Tori has been great with my pup since they met. Gives detailed updates of drop ins and walks with lots of pictures (which I very much appreciate when Im away). Always prompt and very trustworthy! Thanks again Tori!”
10. Brigid S.
“Brigid is the best! She has helped me with my sweet pup, Scarlett, dozens of times - for weekends, longer trips, and even daytime walks. My gal Scarlett is anxious and spicy (she gets it from her momma) and Brigid has demonstrated a perfect temperament for her. She’s welcoming, warm, mindful, and engaging. I trust Brigid with my whole being and know when I leave Scarlett with her that she’s in good hands.”
11. Wendy P.
“My dog Elsa loves her”
12. Nina C.
“Nina is an amazing dog sitter. I have a 1 1/2 year old boxer mix and he just loves her. We never have to worry when we know Nina is going to come over to help with our little guy, we know he is going to be safe, and happy while we are away.”
13. Katy & Luke C.
“I felt like my dogs were well taken care of when they were with Katy and Luke. They did a wonderful job of communicating with me, meeting the dogs prior to their walk, and showing kindness to us as well. This was a terrific time for me using Rover for the first time.”
14. Mashuka A.
“Mashuka will be a great pet sitter because she has 2 cats who she treats like her own children. She is loving, caring and nice.”
15. Rachel B.
“You can count on Rachel! I have entrusted Rachel to walk my dog on many occaisions. She is reliable, responsible, and trustworthy. My fur baby gets so excited when she comes over because he knows he will get a breath of fresh air strolling the development! I know that he is in good hands and she gets the job done with a smile. Her love for animals is obvious and I couldn’t be happier with the service she provides. This has been the best thing for my dog and for myself too because I have peace of mind knowing he is getting exercise when my schedule doesn’t allow. Thank you Rachel! You have been a blessing to me and to my sweet boy!”
16. Brandon L.
“Brandon was awesome he came colt warmed up to him so quickly the bonus was he brought his dog Blue which colt loved even more I would highly recommend Brandon.”
17. Candice S.
“Candice is a kind and compassionate person and adoring animal lover. I have entrusted her on more than one occasion with my 2 golden retrievers. They adore her and she is also a great person that brings happy vibes.”
18. Brianna L.
“We have hired Brianna a few times to watch our 2 cats for a period of a day and our longest time away of a month. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were fed on time and engaged while we were gone. We always took comfort in that they were being taken care of by someone we trust fully to meet their needs and enhance their days while we were away.”
19. Patricia Z.
“The trust you feel with Trish makes it comfortable to go on vacation. She took great care of my Cat Lilly I would recommend her”
