“Cristina is the Best sitter we ever had!!! She is always on time and follows the instructions. And leaves the house clean like we can’t even tell someone was there. Truly animal lover, cares for them. We received multiple pictures and very detailed reports every time she visited my 2 senior fur babies. They were enjoying the time with her. I definitely can trust her more than 100%. If you are looking for trustworthy sitter, she is the one you should contact to.”


“Outstanding pet sitters! They went above and beyond to care for my cats—ensuring fresh food and water, clean litter, and a clean environment. They gave the beasts plenty of love, attention, and brushing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets.”


“Erin was great at communication and updates! She was friendly and willing to follow our, very complicated, pet care instructions to the best of her ability! Dependable and reasonable rates with a ton of flexibility. I will definitely ask her to sit again for us in the future! Thank you, Erin!”


“Jamiela has been wonderful with my puppy, Enzo! She comes by midday to feed him, play with him, and give him a much-needed break while I’m at work. She’s always on time, very reliable, and keeps me updated with great communication. I know Enzo is in good hands with her, and it gives me peace of mind while I’m away. Highly recommend her!”


“We asked Kevin for drop-in visits to take care of our puppy for a couple of days. Kevin was always on time, and he was very thoughtful. We appreciate all that he did, and we plan to re-book at the next opportunity.”


About: -Kennel walker and care provider for 2 years -K9 School Dog trainer apprenticeship program -Several years of dog walking experience -Experience with Large Dog breed and care I have a now 1 year old Corgi and a very talkative and loving 6 year old Husky, I’ve always had a passion for dogs and am looking to work with them as much as I can. Currently I have a backyard and I love to have hands on play time with my current pets. I like to spend lots of one on one time with my own dog and love to do so with others. I love meeting new dogs to see new personalities, I try to make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable and just as happy as I am to meet them and care for them.

“Jenna was great for checking in on my pup while I was at work! She took lots of photos and a video of their time at the park. It’s easy to tell she genuinely enjoys taking care of pets and spending time with them. I’ll definitely continue having her take care of my pets!”


“Whitney was willing to check in on my new puppy, Ollie, after having him for only one night and not a lot of information on his temperament. Whitney communicated quickly and kindly, which I very much appreciate. As a first time Rover user, it's a little unnerving having someone come over whom I never met, but Whitney completely put me at ease. She provided pictures of Ollie having fun with bubbles in the back and gave him a report card for me to look at. I'm definitely going to ask Whitney to return soon!”


About: I’ve owned dogs ever since I was a child and have cared for dogs outside of my family for a little over 5 years.

She’s always on time, very reliable, and keeps me updated with great communication. I know Enzo is in good hands with her, and it gives me peace of mind while I’m away. Highly recommend her!

Payton is awesome! She was super flexible and even available for last minute changes which happens a lot with my crazy work schedule. I felt so relieved knowing she was giving my dog lots of love and cuddles while I was away. Will definitely book her again in the future. Thanks Payton!

Shannon took such good care of our dog while we were away on vacation! She checked on him 3 times a day and always at the scheduled time. She walked him 2-3 times a day, sent us numerous pictures, and frequently kept us updated on how he was doing. She made us feel confident that he was being well taken care of and given lots of attention, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We would definitely have Shannon watch him again the next time we go out of town!

Leah is so kind and understanding. From the first time meeting her, she made us feel comfortable and confident in her helping with our two very large and sometimes chaotic dogs. She listened to our concerns, their quirks, and all the information we threw at her. Finding her has been a huge relief knowing we have her to help us out when needed. She is the best!

Kessayah was great. I booked her last minute and she was very flexible and friendly. She took great care of our doggo and she even stayed a little extra on a day because we had a requested to feed him last minute. Great communication. Will definitely book her again.

Daniel is amazing! He is great with my pup, even thought Cody is a bit moody sometimes. Daniel took the time to help Cody adjust to a new person coming into the house. With more visits, I'm sure Cody will come around and feel a lot better with having Daniel around. I book Daniel as much as I can, and would recommend him to anyone in the future.
