We were very nervous for this trip because this was the first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. Linda was great and very reassuring. She sent us pictures throughout the day and gave us updates on how they were doing. My older dog doesn’t like strangers and Linda was able to come him down. During the two meetings before we went away, Linda remained calm and Koda warmed up to her pretty quickly. Both dogs seemed like they had a great time while we were away! Would 100% use Linda again and recommend her to others!

Lily and Philip are the best. We are currently going through a challenging period, and they are always ready to help when we need them. They not only cared for our dogs but kept our outdoor plants alive in this heat!

Whst a wonderful thing it is to know your fur babies are in capable, loving hands while you spend time away. Patricia is a sweet, special lady and my two dogs fell in love with her immediately. I will certainly be calling on her again soon.

Janine was amazing watching our pets while we were away for a few days. Severus is a large dog and we trusted Janine to take him out for walks and to care for him. Our cat was very playful and rambunctious and she kept him entertained. We were able to rest assured on our trip that the animals were in good hands during their first weekend without us. Thank you, Janine!

Savannah was great. She responded quickly to the original request and communicated very well throughout the stay. She also came by to meet our dogs in advance. Our two dogs were happy and well-cared for. We would definitely ask Savannah back to stay with our dogs!

Highly recommend Kayce!!!!! We used Kayce to house sit while watching our senior cat Morticia. Kayce was AMAZING. Best vibes. Mature, fun, open & honest, responsible and patient. Great communicator! She was wonderful with Morticia and sent pictures of their interactions. She respected our home as though her own. We will not hesitate to use her again for sitting the cat and/or house sitting.

Great help to have Alanna assist with my variety pack of 4 often rambunctious canines! This crew can test any seasoned dog lover while she can love on the Yorkie, calm down the sheepdoodle, reign in the Rotty mix and relax with the lab--& alway goes the extra mile on the long walks, long days and long commutes!

I left my two with Sharolyn for a week without a concern and my reading was absolutely correct! My pets are happy and healthy, my home is as I left it. Everything is perfect! Sharolyn even offered to stay late when my flight was delayed several hours. I would not ever hesitate to ask her for future support. All 3 of us are very happy to have found her! ?

Tim did a great job with Bo. He sent updates as agreed and left the house in great shape. He even took out the garbage! He even helped out when our train got very delayed by going back and letting Bo out and feeding him after he had officially left.

I have a senior dog with a lot of special health conditions, and he was extremely well cared for by Victor. I received a number of videos and updates while away, which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Victor. His genuine love for animals was so clear, as he took excellent care of my precious pets.

Charity has pet sit for me outside of Rover many times. She’s very responsible and has many pets of her own. (The cat whisperer:)She’s a very loving human being with a big heart. You can count on her spur of the moment and long term. Very friendly and outgoing, Charity is. She’s the best!

About: Growing up I was the neighborhood dog walker and pet sitter! The last 10 years I have watched and walked many of my friends and families pets. I do have a full time job but I can still enjoy my morning coffee while playing with a pup, or squeeze in a lunch break walk with a new furry friend. I work 12 hr shifts so the days that are marked unavailable I have a shift. If your pet can be left alone that long we can work something out on those days. Your furry friend will get all the love, attention, and playtime they need, and your home will be kept tidy and secure. Trust me to give you peace of mind while you're out exploring!

Catherine was great with our two dogs! One of our dogs is a senior, and Catherine worked well with him. She was on time and responsible. This was actually our first paid dog sitting, and we will definitely book Catherine again if we need a sitter.

About: Your four legged family member is just as important to me as they are to you! You can expect personalized attention given to your pet, and I will treat them as if they are one of my own! My own pets are obedient but also spoiled, they get the perfect level of training and loving every day! I have had a variety of dogs, from squirrel chasers, to loungers, from 30 pounds to 110 pounds! I can handle anything and everything they have to offer! I believe that pets are therapeutic to be with, and in order for them to be that way they need their own source of therapy- socializing and walks! Let your pet continue to grow through different experiences with me today! Pet care is my priority! I can dedicate 100% of my time to your furry family member to ensure their needs are met- no matter what! Plenty of outdoor time is a given for any type of service. At my home, the fully fenced backyard will be the ultimate playground. And of course some walking around the quiet neighborhood for some mental stimulation!

Lindsey stayed at our home for a week while we vacationed. Our dog loved her to death! She watched over our home, got the mail and watered plants on top of caring for our dog Reesey. Highly recommend her for long or short term care.

About: I have owned, trained and taken care of a huge variety of breeds, temperaments and sizes. My current dog is a 120lb Shiloh Shepherd. My last was a 7lb Rat Terrier, Chihuahua mix! I'm currently in school online and self employed, so I can modify my schedule to fit your needs! From early mornings, to late in the evening, I have you covered! Pets are part of your family and as such, will be treated with the utmost care, respect and diligence. It is a big leap to trust a stranger with a family member, and I strive to provide the best care for you pet!

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals cats, dogs, fish, and even plants! I love to help my friends, family, and more with walking their dog, feeding their cat, or watering plants! I work only a few days a week because I’m a stay at home mother so I would give your pup all my love. I’m available during the week from 11am - 8pm. I take my dogs on walks as well as play fetch at least once a day! I feed them twice a day and let them out every 2-3 hours. If i dog/cat sit for someone I go to their house 2 times a day to feed, walk, or whatever else I’m instructed to do.
