3. Cammie M.

“She spent a lot of time cuddling and playing with my dogs. She was great with communicating and sending updates. My senior dog needs medicine, and my rescue can be needy at times and Cammie had no problem managing their needs.”


4. Kristi V.

“Kristi was amazing with our crew !! She knew we had just taken in our Gracie as a rescue pug and gave her all the extra love and snuggles that she needed to feel safe and loved ....she spent lots of extra time in our home to ensure they didn't feel our absence even working remotely at our place which was great for our pugs/cats. She kept us informed of daily events and sent lots of snuggle snaps which made us feel better. Kristi even left us homemade biscotti for our return home. I can say with full confidence that Kristi is motivated by love of animals and helping others...we will most certainly hire her back to our home for all our Rover needs :)”

13. Darian H.
“Darian has been nothing but amazing with my pets! I have a 7 year old golden retriever, who is highly active. And I also have a 1 year old cat. She goes above and beyond with both, but especially my dog because she’s so energetic and needy. She takes her for walks, brings her to the park and plays fetch. It’s comforting that she provides photos and updates while they’re together. She also feeds my dog and makes sure to give her the supplements she needs at the right feeding times. It makes me feel at ease when she’s taking care of my animals because I know they’re in the best hands! Highly recommend Darian to everyone!”


14. Susan C.


“Susan was awesome! She stayed for 3 nights and took care of our cat and dog, and she was everything we could want in a sitter. Very responsible, responsive, and caring. We only booked Susan 6 days in advance when she came over for a meet and greet. It almost felt like we were old friends catching up; she was here for an hour chatting and I knew right away she was a great fit. She sent photos of our animals on my request and even did something for us related to our pool. The house was spotless when we came home and we could tell our boys were very well cared for. We will definitely keep Susan in mind in the future and highly recommend her!”


15. Kristin L.

“I can't stress enough how amazing Kristin is. I am a repeat customer for a reason...she is trustworthy, my dog loves her, she goes WELL above and beyond...she's the real deal and my go-to when I head out of town. She even deals super well with my last minute schedule changes. She. Is. Awesome. Full stop.”


16. Madison S.

“Madison was amazing. She was punctual and communicated with me regularly. She took very good care of my 14 week old puppy. He is a rambunctious puppy but Madison was patient and calm. I highly recommend Madison to take care of your pets.”


17. Kenny I.
“I highly recommend Kenny! He was so loving and attentive towards my dog, Benson. I get nervous leaving my dog with just anyone and Kenny was amazing. He kept me updated and my dog was always safe and happy. Every time Kenny has watched and walked Benson, he couldn’t wait to run up to Kenny’s door, wagging his tail and ready to give kisses! 10/10!!!”
