1. Katie K.
“Katie was great! She was very responsive and helped keep us at ease while we were on vacation. She went above and beyond for us while we were away. We had a building fire next door and she came over that night to check and make sure our cat was fine. I can not recommend Katie enough!!”
2. Alina Z.
“Pew Pew was very happy in Alina's care. Alina is very communicative and helpful. Alina gave Pew Pew her medicine daily and was flexible with a last minute change. Thank you Alina!”
3. Anjelica P.
“Anjelica is truly one of the most compassionate and caring people, especially when it comes to dogs and cats. Her love for animals is evident in the way she interacts with every pet she meets. She goes above and beyond to ensure they are well-cared for, whether it’s taking dogs on long walks or providing cozy, quiet spaces for cats to relax. Anjelica treats every animal with the same love and attention she would her own. You can trust her to not only meet their needs but to make them feel safe and loved.”
4. Cheryl & Elmar V.
“Cheryl & Elmar each dropped-in to visit my new 10 week old puppy who is adapting to his parents going back to work. Hudson absolutely loved playing with them and they provided plenty of pictures and videos to ensure Hudson was comfortable and having a great time.”
5. Rebecca V.
“Rebecca grew up loving animals, especially cats! As compassionate human being, a mother and a medical professional, she is more than qualified to watch over your fur baby. Moreover, she is knowledgeable and trained to help administer meds, or simply ensure the health and safety of your baby while you are away. Rebecca has a soothing and friendly demeanor, is a great communicator, and is very detail oriented (so no worries about her following your needs and your baby’s needs to a tee). You can be rest assured that you will feel at ease leaving your fur baby in good hands! I have personally seen her keep her 20something year old cat alive for longer than she should have through her love, attention, and medical expertise. There is no one I trust more with anyone animal or human.”
6. Priscilla M.
“Priscilla is known to have taken care of her dogs throughout her life. Her love of dogs is unparalleled to anyone. She treats them as if they were her own children. Priscilla loves to play with them, go on long walks as well as provide overall care. If you are looking for a dog sitter, Priscilla would be a great choice. She did an outstanding job taking care of my dog.”
7. Cathy B.
“Cathy came to let my 12 week old puppy out for a break while we were away all day. All went great. Pictures and texts were a great reassurance. Thank you!!”
8. Chloe S.
“Chloe clicked with my dog Ellie instantly, they loved each other during the meet and greet. We left Ellie in good hands for one day with Chloe. She stopped by several times during the day and next day to make sure Ellie was well fed and loved. The pictures she sent made me relieved that Ellie was well taken care of while I was away. I’ll definitely be asking her to care for my dog next time I’m away 💛.”
9. Vicki H.
“Vicki is great with my dogs. She's always answers promptly and is very flexible with her scheduling. She's reliable, dependable and trustworthy. My mind is at ease knowing she is taking care of my dogs and is in my home.”

12. Joshua R.
About: I've been a dog dad for over 20 years now (with several senior dogs of my own). I work from home in IT so I'm pretty much always available with a little bit of notice. Also, I just love dogs. If your dog is bored or lonely during the day I'd love to stop by for a hang or a walk or whatever your little guy needs. I work from home in IT. I'm full-time but I can work any hours I want. Basically, I'm always available with some notice. Also, I like not staring at my laptop. I have a fenced in yard which my dog has the run of (as long as I'm out there with him). Otherwise, he mostly sleeps in his office (the couch) until my wife comes home.
13. April I.
“April is amazing, we had an exceptional first experience with Rover thanks to April! Our dog is usually territorial and hesitant to new people entering our home, but April did a great job getting our dog to warm-up in the sort amount of time during the brief check-in. April was thorough with all the instructions we left, and knew exactly the right questions to ask to be sure our dog was well cared for. You can tell she truly cares! April was so patient with our dog who can be stubborn sometimes and was communicative the entire time. We are looking forward to working with April again!”
14. Julianna C.
“Julianna helped us out on short notice and she was so good it’s our kitties! She even got the shy one to come out to play. Thank you so much!”
15. Raquel W.
“Raquel has been walking and doggy sitting for me since the first week we got our puppy Tony. She has taught him so much over the last 2 years, he no longer pulls when on walks, he listens to simple commands and is 100% housebroken. In the times we have been on vacation for a few days she has stayed at our house and spent all of her spare time with Tony, not to mention my cat as well. My fur babies and my family could not be happier with the love and care she provides to my pets. Thank you Raquel!”
16. Yvette B.
“Yvette was awesome! Took such good care of my 3 little fur babies. Definitely went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and I was in the loop with pictures and updates. One million percent would book again! Thank you!!!! 🐾🐾🐾”

18. Anna S.
“Anna is such a sweet caring person. I’m so happy I found her on here. My cats love her accompany while we are away on vacation. I was concerned as they are both kitten and never left along for such a long time. Now she gave me the peace and ease. Would highly recommend her!”
19. Michael K.
“Michael cared for my two Golden Retreiver dogs while my family went on a week long cruise. I was able to enjoy my time away so much more knowing our two boys were being cared for by the best. I received picture updates throughout the whole week for piece of mind too. When we got home, the boys were as happy as could be. They had their own little guys vacation too! Michael genuinely cares for all animals and takes the time to give them all the attention they need. He has worked with veterinarians before. With his medical knowledge, I feel my animals are completely safe in his care.”
