We have finally found a dependable, competent, all around amazing babysitter for our cats. Gary was reliable and punctual. He really put in effort to get the cats to trust him and we came home to clean litters. As long as he is available, he will be our go-to cat sitter!

This was our second time with Marta, we are so glad that we can enjoy our travels and not worry about anything at home, she is fantastic! She kept us updated after each visit and is very responsible and follows all instructions exactly as given, and she has been so patient with our shy senior cat who hides under the table! We will definitely hire her again.

I am so glad I found Liz. Our usual pet sitter was unavailable so I used Rover to find someone nearby who had great reviews. Liz was it! She put me at ease straight away as she clearly genuinely loves animals. Liz treated my dogs and cat like her own and gave them lots of love and attention. I received detailed reports and photos for each visit and everything was clean, neat and tidy when we returned. Aside from how great Liz is with pets, she also has a brilliant personality and is great fun to chat to! I hope to keep working with Liz because I doubt we would find anyone better.

Christy was sooo amazing at taking care of our senior pups while me and husband were away for a 10 day trip! She stayed in communication and shared updates and photos, and kept us posted on our dogs energy levels. We really appreciated her care and felt safe leaving our pups in her hands!

While on vacation our young pup wouldn’t stop crying when she was left alone in our beach rental. Lauren was able to help watch her the very next morning. So responsive! So sweet! So punctual! I can’t say enough good things about Lauren!

About: I strive to make the lives of our furry friends as fulfilling and fun as possible! I'm very comfortable taking care of any pet, and I have taken care of senior animals who require insulin shots and meticulous diets. One of my favorite electives at university was my 'Psychology of our Pets' class where we learned about how to best care for our furry friends and keep them active and healthy. I have owned dogs, cats, and even birds! Since I'm home from university for the summer, I'm pretty much available at the drop of a dime! While I would prefer a day's notice, I should be able to take care of your pet within two hours of your request. I believe that activities and fun are just as important for pets as they are for humans. Who wants to be stuck in their house all day? I know tons of dog-friendly walking trails, and I'd love to spend a few hours with them & make sure they are well-exercised. I've dealt with a lot of dietary restrictions for pets, so I can follow any directions very closely if needed. For Cats/Kittens, I have a few toys I'd be happy to bring, and even a harness if they want to explore outside for a few minutes!

About: My name’s Regina and I have been a dog lover since my family adopted our first dog when I was only 2 years old. She was my best friend, and ever since then, my friends and family have joked that I love dogs more than people! I walk my two dogs on a daily basis, and I know how difficult that can be when working around a busy schedule. I work remotely so I have the flexibility to accommodate you and your dog's schedule. Since I was 13 I have cared for countless dogs of neighbors, friends, and family while the owners were on vacation or even just stuck at work. I know how important my dogs are to me, so I always treat all pets with love and care. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, and would love to help out with your furry best friend! I work remotely so I have flexibility to accommodate your schedule. I'm of course available early morning and evening hours, and can also give your dog attention and exercise mid-day. If your dog is in need of extra attention, I can even work from your home for an agreed-upon rate. I will make sure you dog receives the exercise and attention they need. I will provide plenty of time for walks and/or playing outside in your yard. I always ensure dogs have food and water before leaving as well!

About: Even if it's just a quick drop in for a potty break, I always make sure your pet gets some extra attention & snuggles. I am meticulous about special dietary needs & medication administration. Right now, I am available during the day mon, thurs, fri, and sun. I can also do evenings all week. Hoping to be able to add more availability to my schedule I always make sure that pets aren't able to get out if they aren't secured on a leash, or in a fenced in yard. I make sure to let other dog walkers know if a dog I'm walking isn't friendly. Temperature and terrain is always taken into account when dog walking

Carly did an amazing job. We required one of her drop ins to include a walk. She went above and beyond and took our dog on another short walk. Being home all day by herself this was great. She was prompt and on time. Will use again

I have used April once, but intend to use her again soon. She is responsive and thorough whenever I contact her. She sent an adorable photo of my dog from her drop-in visit. I feel overall that I can trust that she will be there when she needs to be and do what I have asked of her.

About: With over 10 years of dedicated dog care experience, we offer compassionate attention and reliable care tailored to your furry friend's needs. From daily walks to playtime and grooming, your dog will receive the utmost love and attention, ensuring their comfort and happiness while you're away. Travis works from home which allows us to offer constant companionship and supervision. Roberta is a teacher nearby, providing the ability to come home early for extra cuddles. We had a 10 year-old German shepherd mix named Marshall, that recently passed, that we adopted from a rescue at 8 weeks old so we have the ability and patience to host puppies. Marshall was our first family dog, Roberta grew up with multiple dogs caring for them from pups through seniors. Additionally, our 6 year-old daughter has enough energy to provide tons of additional fetch and chase time. We also have a 1 year old that can’t wait to get in on the action! We are able to (and love) having pups with special needs. Marshall's best friend was blind and we cared for him on many occasions. We can also administer medications and prepare specialized meals when needed. We have a large backyard that allows for plenty of jaunts and potty breaks. As well as plenty of space in the house for quiet time and naps. Your pup will have full access to make themselves comfortable in their home away from home. Travis works from home allowing for full time care. Roberta is a teacher nearby and is home early to allow for additional time and attention. We are able to fit your pup into our daily feeding, potty, play schedule or can adjust to meet their needs. In our home, your pets are treated like family. They'll enjoy a cozy environment with plenty of playtime in our large yard or indoors if it's too hot/cold. They'll have plenty of play time if they like or space to chill if that's what they prefer. Your pet will have access to our home to nap and play wherever they feel comfortable, and we also have the space to crate if, that's your preference.

Wow. I can’t say enough about the quality of care Brandon provided to our active dog Coco (who needed medicine administered and extra TLC during his visit) and our kitty Cora. His communication with us and the animals was wonderful, he updated us in real time, and everyone was in great shape when we arrived home. We’ll definitely be rebooking with Brandon!

About: I've been a dog owner for 20 wonderful years, dogs are my passion! They love me and I love them, from puppies to seniors, toys to giants. I am lucky have a fenced in, wooded, private, 2 acre property with plenty of room for zoomies. My beagle, Piglet, is also a fine hostess. She loves to have canine company to play with, then snuggle with us and relax at my comfy, quiet home together. Piglet is my sweet rescue senior beagle. She's friendly, quiet and submissive. She has the final say on who may enter Her Queendom. Dogs are my main gig, so I will be with your babies almost 24/7. When I go out, I bring Piglet and friends along with me everywhere I can, especially to parks, trails and forests. But if your dog is more of a homebody, I can easily stay home with them all day. I live in a safe, wooded, quiet, 2 acre, fenced-in lot. There are lots of dogs on my block who love to socialize and have play dates if that's what your dog is into. I'm at the end of a dirt road, nowhere near any traffic, so it is very safe and private.

Dan Bee took great care of Bouji when we travelled for 3 days. Bouji was not yet 1 years old and not used to being alone. Dan Bee took time each visit to find her (hiding!) and engage her and give her attention and socialization, in addition to taking care of water and food and litter. I could enjoy my time away knowing Bouji was in good hands.
