Mario is extremely reliable and an animal lover! He has taken care of a few of my pets, including a cat and a dog. Mario always comes to take care of the pets on time and even goes the extra mile to bring them treats and toys. Not only do I trust Mario with my animals and having access to my apartment, but my animals love him! Overall, I would recommend Mario to anyone who needs a responsible and loving person to look after their pets.

Janill was great! My pups is winded out. I thought 30 mins wouldn’t be enough because I usually walk her for 40 minutes. But I didn’t really see a difference in my pups she’s as tired as she usually is. Walking her has really stopped destructive behaviors but I couldn’t walk her everyday because of my work schedule. Thank you Janill for being a great dog Walker!

Having Michelle as my dog caregiver for four months in the past was a pleasant experience as she demonstrated to be trustworthy and caring at all times during my absence. I would recommend her to anyone who owns pets with special needs and characters.

Tashiyana is a life saver, available on a short notice when I needed a walker. My Lulu is usually very shy and takes awhile to feel comfortable, but she warmed to Tashiyana within minutes of them meeting. I was so much less stressed at work knowing she was checking in on my Lulu and giving her lots of love.

About: My name Katrina. I have 1 and 1/2 years working with dogs as a profession and about 11 years of experience caring for my own personal animals(4 cats and 2 dogs). I do rover part time to help pay for school. My rover schedule works around my work schedule leaving my afternoons free on weekdays after 1pm. I like to follow the directions of the owner based on my stay. Due to small children in my home sitting would be at the client's home. I am also able to administer medication and give your dog a bath if needed or requested.

Shivarah took great care of our high energy German shepherd puppy! She was patient and it’s obvious that she loves animals. She arrived on time every day and gave us a detailed report with pictures after each visit.

Karen was great! Communicative and easygoing - and really saved me on a pre-holiday weekend when I had to go into the city to meet some friends. Could tell Jack had some decent exercise and was happy to have gotten out and about. Thanks so much!

As a first time dog mom of my baby boy Charlie ( Golden Retriever almost 1 year old), I can say that I did not know it was possible to love a little life so much. That being said, the past year has definitely had its challenges especially when it came to trusting someone with Charlie. This all changed when I met Denise and her little princess Ginger. Seeing the way Denise cares for Ginger, I knew Charlie was in good hands. As a pet parent herself, I know Denise truly puts herself in our shoes and cares for the pups as her own. When Charlie is with her, his safety is her number one concern, followed by having fun. I truly appreciate all the updates and pictures I get from her during the time they are together. As if that was not enough, I love that when Charlie sees Denise he is super excited and showing his affection with kisses. If that isn’t proof of a good time, I don’t know what else. Denise is the full package as she’s someone I trust and Charlie loves!

Marli has been taking our dog on weekly walks for several months and she has house-sat for us on multiple occasions as well. She has been absolutely wonderful to work with since Day 1. She is quick to respond, always prompt, and most importantly, our dog really enjoys spending time with her. We have a large dog that has medical needs and she can sometimes be difficult when getting to know new people. Marli demonstrated tremendous patience and kindness with her and she was able to gain her trust as a result. We are incredibly grateful for that. We would HIGHLY recommend Marli to anyone looking for a kind, passionate, and highly communicative caretaker for their pet. Thanks Marli :)

I’m very grateful for Alexis. ❤️ Her rates are affordable and she’s always been reliable for me whenever I needed her. She takes good care of my pup every time I book with her . Ive had dogs as pets all my life and I can very much tell when a dog is being well taken care of. Every time Chico comes back from Alexis he is full of joy and when he’s sad it’s because he doesn’t want to come back home. I don’t know what Alexis did to my dog but there’s been a few times Chico did not want to come back home 😅

Rebecca is one of the most responsible pet owners I know. She cares for her older Puggle with the care and attention you'd give to your own aging family member. She knows a lot about animals and dog care and discipline specifically and stays on top of her own dog's medical needs, medications and the dog never goes without a healthy meal and companionship.

About: Hello! My name is Lyric, and I am 20 years old. I’ve been around dogs specifically since before I could walk, animals of all nature have a special place in my heart. I love cats just as equally and my positive attitude will make every experience a smooth and relaxing one! I’m a very quick learner and can adjust to any needs your babies may require. My schedule is very flexible and I am very transparent all around. I’ll make sure your buddies are safe, cared for, and loved while they are around me. :) I make sure to fit pet care into my daily or weekly routine by prioritizing whatever the pets needs are. For example, depending on the breed, I research their daily need for exercise, food, and attention while also keeping the owners needs and wants at the very center of mind for the pet. Then I prep as needed. I care for pets in my home and/or my client’s home by giving them as much affection, food, and exercise that they need. Walks around my neighborhood, scheduled feeding and bathroom time, and much needed belly rubs while never leaving their sight at all times.
