“I am extremely impressed with Renee. She came over and met both of my dogs and treated them with patience and compassion. One of my dogs is very suspicious of strangers and she was able to manage her anxiety which speaks to her dedication. It is obvious she is a true animal lover and knows how to communicate well with them through body language.”
“Anja and Josh provided top quality and loving care to my cat Jade while I traveled to Europe for 7 days. If you want mature and reliable service, Anja and Josh are the choice for you!”
“Rae’Na is the best there is! She takes wonderful care of our puppy during drop in visits. She is always very attentive, detail orientated, and professional. Would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Dogs are my absolute favorite creatures on earth. I have almost 40 years experience with dogs. I have owned dogs, trained dogs, helped deliver puppies and most importantly loved & spoiled dogs. I currently have a 6 year old little girl Montana that I helped deliver. She is my whole heart. I have a flexible work schedule allowing me to be available for dog walks when needed. I am available every day of the week and on holidays. I am just joining Rover and look forward to building trust & getting regular clients. Fur babies rely on us to take care of them. My babies are loved, spoiled, played with and talked to every day. Yours will be too while in my care. I also have 4 Granddogs that I care for when needed. Gramma spoils them when their Mommy & Daddy are away. I love taking dogs on walks. It's the equivalent of taking children to the playground. Their happiness makes me happy.
“Kellie handled our four senior kitties with ease. Came home to everything in its place and clean. She even got our kitty Koona to finish her meals (she had been not eating for a day before we left). I could tell by the pics the kitties were happy. Thank you Kellie!”

Christy O.
“Christy has worked in customer service for many years and prides herself in making sure that her customers needs are met and that they are treated with respect. Christy and her dog visited me in California and I was able to see first hand how her dog's health and happiness are a big part of her life. When Christy is out in public if she runs into someone with their dogs she always asks if she can pet them. If the owner says yes she loves on each dog as if they were her own. Christy works very well with people as well as animals. She loves all animals not just dogs and I believe she would make an awesome pet sitter or dog walker for anyone.”
