Jill was absolutely phenomenal with our fur babies! This is the first time we've used Rover and were incredibly nervous. Not only were we trusting a stranger in our home with our dogs but we would be out of the country and unable to do anything if things went wrong. Jill was everything we could have hoped for and so much more! She loved our babies and made sure they were happy! She even gave our cats attention eventhough they weren't on the list of pets for her to care for. Jill made sure to keep us well updated daily and took some of the best photos of our pets. We were able to fully relax on vacation knowing she was there to care for our babies and we will without a doubt, book her the next time we go out of town. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Jill! You are one of a kind!

Will definitely call Kari again next time I need someone to check in on my 2 kitties. She sent photos each time she checked in. Kitties were well taken care of.

Excellent for a difficult situation with two cats that have only been cared for by two people the last 10 years. One cat that hid on every visit. She was still able to keep both of them fed and looking great on my return.

About: I started off by volunteering at a local human society when i was 16 and periodically pet sit for my neighbor and i am now currently in school majoring in biology for pre-veterinary science. I love animals and I've grown up with pets and animals around me. Im currently working a part time job and am in school but i have time after classes, after work and on weekends to help out. On a day-to-day basis, caring for an animal In my home or clients home i would make sure the animal has plenty or food and water, gets some exercise wether its just playing with toya or going on a walk, and of course giving them all the rubs and love. I truly do have a huge spot in my heart for animals and having one of my own, i love him to death and i wouldn't want anyone to treat him poorly so i will take care of your animals as i would do mine.

Alexis came everyday and made sure my dogs were fed and watered and she took the time to play with them and give them attention. She even went out of her way to go buy a bag of dog food for them while I was out of town. I will definitely use her services again. It’s nice to find someone you can trust not only to come in your home but to care for your animals. Can’t thank her enough!!

Ryleigh has grown up with dogs, and prefers them over pretty much anything (except maybe pizza). She's been a dog person all of her life (just like her momma, never met a dog she didn't like!). She has grown to be a very reliable and responsible young lady, finding a part time job on her own at age 16, and working consistently while finishing high school. She's been the preferred dog-sitter for our neighbors. She recently moved away from home, but quickly found her perfect fit in a job, working through the summer, and now weekends at a doggie daycare, while attending college. She has this incredible enthusiasm and joy being around animals; you immediately see and get this vibe when you meet her. I know she really misses her dogs, Chewie and Juno, who are at home. I'm confident that she will spoil your fur babies as if they were her own. If you're looking for the perfect dog sitter, she's definitely your girl.

My cat Daisy and I had another fantastic experience with Jenny! She worked her magic on her drop in visits to care for Daisy while I was away and my typically stranger shy kitty was happy to come out to visit with her. Jenny shared many photos so I could see my girl was doing well and I returned home to a very well cared for and happy cat.

Animals that have been abused and even used as bait dogs she has turned into loving animals. She would be a wonderful asset to your team. Thank you, Alison Bell 480-276-3125

Brooke has cared for my pets (1 dog, 1 cat) on multiple occasions. This consists of drop-in and overnight care. My pets love Brooke, even my temperamental cat that hates most humans. She is a true animal lover and is always sure to follow our guidelines and requests. My only complaint is that my dog totally ignores me as soon as Brooke arrives.

Amanda is excellent. Not only is her communication top notch but so is the care and attention to detail she had for my cats/my asks (her 1st sitting was for 18 drop ins over 10 days). My pets loved her too, she is clearly an animal lover, they came right to her on the 1st visit. I highly recommend her.

Samantha Barber is a very responsible and reliable person. She is also honest. She goes over and beyond her duties. She always put animals first. Animals love her. When they see her they come running. She even has animals that are not social come up to her. She definitely would be the right person to care for someone' s loved one. She believes that animals are like family.

About: I have spent my life with pets. I've fostered for rescue, worked with several pet food companies and am very educated in pet nutrition. I've volunteered at my local humane society. I'm an experienced pet handler and have worked with a pet relocation company providing boarding and long distance ground transportation. I have and excellent knowledge of dog breeds and breed specific behavior and needs. I treat every animal I work with as if he/she were my own. All animals in my care are treated as royalty. I have a special love for senior and special needs dogs and always welcome them for services. I will always treat your pet as a member of the family and take extra special care when taking them on dogs walks and transporting them. I'm bonded and insured and a member of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters I work from home part-time so I'm always home for daycare and boarding. I also have the flexibility to do drop-in visits and petsitting in your home In home boarding and daycare are cage free. Pups are crated at night for sleeping depending on how many dogs are in the house, how well I know them and of course, what they're sleeping preferences are. I'm not a fan of crating pups unless its necessary for health and or safety.
