Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

Lisa has been cat sitting for me for over 30 years. She treats my cats as though they are her own. She has a lot of great experience with cats and dogs and is comfortable playing with them and caring for them. She has been a really good cat sitter for me whenever I’m away. She sends me pics of my kitties and that helps so much. I’ve had kittens and older cats over the years and she’s done great with them all.

Look no further for an amazing dog walker! From the moment I met her, it was clear that her focus was not on meeting me but getting to know my dog. Which is exactly what I want!! Can’t wait for future walks with her, and Mochi was smitten the moment she pet him.

I wish I could give even more of a tip (rover won't let me give more than 30%), but Monica did an amazing job today. My dog had an accident in the house and she cleaned it up even though she didn't have to. Words cannot describe how awesome Monica is. 12/10 would recommend to anyone.

I hired Chelsea to walk and feed my two big dogs while I’m at work. She far exceeded my expectations. Often took them on longer walks than she had to and gave me updates as she interacted with them. They love her and are always so excited when she comes by.

Laura has helped me out with my dog Joseph several times, and I always know that he's in great hands. She has been a lifesaver in emergencies as well as a reliable caregiver for planned trips. Joseph is an odd little guy and Laura has learned his many quirks to work with him for the best experience possible. I get frequent pictures and updates, and I know that Laura respects and honors my requests for his care. I don't know what I'd do without her!

Would 1000% recommend her to anyone who has fury babies that need taken care of while away. Emily is your girl if you want someone who you can trust with your animals!
