Olivia was amazing with my year old GSP. She was punctual, friendly and enthusiastic during the initial meet and greet. Afterwards, she was always on time and even stayed a few minutes past the allocated 30 minute session just to make sure my pups needs were met. I highly recommend her for any of your pet watching needs.

Christy has always done an excellent job at taking care of or cats and foster cats. So is good at communicating during each visit. She sends daily updates and lots of pictures. We never have to worry about leaving our animals in her care. I would recommend her to people. Christy has had no problems with dealing with the giving of medicine to our older cats. She has no problem in asking questions if the needs arises.

Sarah was always on time with visits and provided a photo checkin every time. My kitties seemed to love her based on the photos and they were well cared for. Sarah was also responsive to messages prior to my trip. Thank you, Sarah! The kitties look forward to seeing you again soon!

Shawntil was great. She followed my cat's care instructions, she was quick to respond, wrote updates, and posted very cute pictures daily. I'd trust Shawntil to care for my cat again. I would recommend her if you're looking for drop-in cat visits.

This was the second time Teresa took care of my cats, and everything went as great as the first time. She spends real time with them, especially my needier cat, and I always appreciate the updates and pictures after every visit. She also gave medication without any problems, which was a big help. It’s a relief to be able to travel knowing my cats are in good hands.

Crystal was amazing with our two cats. They don’t get much interaction with other people but they took to Crystal so quickly. She was patient with them and spent the time needed to earn their trust. One of our cats is especially skittish and Crystal worked with her and it didn’t take long until our girl was coming out for her and asking for attention. We will definitely be hiring Crystal again. Thank you Crystal for taking special care of our kitties!!

Ned came for a meet and greet so I could introduce LucyLulu and show him how I feed her, what commands we use and how to get her in and out of the house and kennel. LucyLulu liked Ned and he reported she was a good girl both visits. He lives very close and it is a good match.

About: I have taken care of neighborhood and family pets intermittently throughout the years. My experience is primarily day care, which includes home visits to walk, feed, and play with the pets! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule at the moment, which allows me to dedicate the time and proper care and love towards your pets! At my client’s home, I will provide care for their pet via the instructions and information given by the client. I won’t do anything outside of the information given to ensure the pet’s safety and comfort! I will provide updates and share any concerns or questions if needed!

Anaiah saved the day. Literally. I was experiencing some issues after a major surgery and the Rover person I had scheduled didn't show up so I was desperate. Anaiah was here in twenty minutes to take them out and then came back a little later to take them for a walk. I'm sooooo impressed!

About: I am a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for large breeds, especially strong, energetic pups like German Shepherds, Huskies, and other working breeds. I’m comfortable and confident handling dogs who need a calm, steady leader — including those who may be reactive to other dogs, people, or environmental triggers. I also have experience caring for dogs with special medical needs. I have experience applying ointments, eye drops, and administering pills and liquid medicines. I understand that cats have unique personalities and routines, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and litter box care to administering medications and giving space to shy or independent cats. I provide calm, attentive care and make sure every pet feels safe, respected, and comfortable in their own home while you’re away. I like to be transparent when I take care of other peoples fur babies and will often share updates via text with added videos and photos of the time I spend with your pet, as well as time stamped detail of feeding, playtime, and potty updates. Pet care is a planned and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I organize my schedule to ensure I have dedicated time for walks, drop-ins, feeding, play, and companionship without feeling rushed. I build in flexibility to accommodate different pet needs, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. Because I plan my time carefully, I’m able to be reliable, punctual, and fully present for every pet in my care. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I make sure feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and medications are handled exactly as instructed. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and any behavioral or medical needs. For dogs, I focus on safe, structured walks, positive reinforcement, and calm handling. For cats, I provide attentive care while respecting their boundaries, keeping their environment clean, and offering affection at their comfort level. I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and leave detailed updates so pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Abby was so wonderful with my cats! They could sense that she was a kind and calm person, and they took to her right away, which they do not do with other people. She sent wonderful, entertaining pictures, which helped us feel that they were in very good hands. I will definitely be calling Abby again.

Christy was absolutely fantastic! I had to leave town for a week while one of my senior cats was sick and Christy gave me such thorough and thoughtful updates, and came up with new ideas for how to help my cat recover. I really appreciated all the photos and how quickly Christy responded. I felt like my cats were in the best hands possible, and I could enjoy my trip without anxiety. Would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Christy!!

Krista is a genuinely cheerful person who truly loves animals, and it shows. She is incredibly professional and precise, following all my briefing instructions perfectly and managing a somewhat complex key-handover without any issues. Not only did she ensure that food, water, and the litter box were always perfectly clean, but she also spent time giving my cat long, fun play sessions. I felt completely at ease leaving my cat in her hands

We had to find a sitter for our cats during an emergency, and we truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Sofia! She responded to us right away and was more than willing to care for our three kitties while we were out of the country. She has done an amazing job spending time with them, feeding them, giving them their medications, and even cleaning up around the house to keep everything tidy. We could also see how comfortable and happy our cats were with her, which says a lot that she’s clearly a true cat person! Sofia has also been incredibly flexible with our schedules and very respectful of our home and space. We highly recommend her, and we will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s available!

She takes care of our home like her own and it’s been a relief to have someone like her watching over our cats while we’re away.

Mad did a drop by visit with our two dogs, in preparation for a longer stay ahead with them. Mad was conscientious and attentive with our dogs, and very willing to do what was necessary to help them feel comfortable (especially one of our dogs, who finds meeting new people a little scary). Mad clearly understands dogs and has a wealth of experience to draw from. We feel confident our dogs are in good hands!
