“Tess was one of the best walkers I have found on Rover. Her communication was great and always sent pictures. She is definitely at the top of my list if I need to book a walker in the future! 10/10 recommend!”
3. Tim P.
“Tim Plahs is the most amazing pet sitter I have ever had care for my dog. He himself owns 2 dogs and 3 cats so all of his knowledge of taking care of his own pets gets transferred to any pet he cares for. My dog Beau just loves every time Tim comes over because he knows that he will get lots of rubs, and treats. Tim is a fantastic dog walker and will always remember to fill up the water bowl. He is patient, attentive, playful, and will do everything he can to make sure your pet feels right at home.”

“Alex is extremely thorough and caring. He wants to get to know your pets and have enough information to make sure they are safe and loved at all times! He is very personable and easy to communicate with the entire time! Thanks Alex!”
5. Whitney P.
“Whitney is an extremely caring and gifted animal lover. She not only takes great care of our pets but she is always looking beyond their everyday needs. She is diligent about getting the best quality natural food for our pets. She often buys treats and new toys to keep them mentally stimulated and active. All of our pets require a lot of attention: Durga 🐶 is around 12 years old and has allergies which require a special diet. Whitney gives her natural foods and supplements that will help Durga’s digestion and keeps up with her care. Durga has also had mast cells twice and Whitney nursed Durga back to health after two separate surgeries. Whitney is vigilant about lumps, skin spots and any signs of potential mast cells on Durga. Ziggy 🐈, our 2 year old boy gets crystals in his urine and Whitney is always watching for subtle signs of inflammation and urinary tract blockages which can be very dangerous to his health. Millie 🐈⬛ is our youngest kitty at less than 5 months old and Whitney has been taking care of her vaccines, vet appointments and a parasite infection that results in diarrhea. Whitney has been managing of all of these concerns as well as providing them with constant love, affection and top notch care. Any pet parent who hires Whitney will see how dedicated she is to making sure all animals are well cared for and loved. She is sensitive to a wide variety of pets’ needs and will make sure they are all addressed. If you hire Whitney to watch your pets you can rest easy that they will be taken care of extremely well”

“Excellent and reliable care! DAMACIA was available with short notice planning and ensured that Bear got everything he needed. She even made sure he got excellent care on the rainy day and bear, like most pups, is not a fan of the rain. I highly recommend DAMACIA and will book with her again when I’m looking for help!”

“Cindy's care for my small Yorkie during our Rover booking was nothing short of exceptional. Her secure, fenced yard was a major plus, providing a safe and playful environment tailored perfectly for small dogs like mine. What truly set Cindy apart was her dedication to keeping me in the loop with daily photos and updates. It felt like I was right there with my furry friend, sharing in their adventures and relaxation. Cindy's genuine love for dogs shone through in every interaction. She didn't just offer care; she provided affection and attention, making my Yorkie feel like a cherished member of her family. Moreover, Cindy's reliability and responsibility were outstanding. She followed all instructions to the letter, from feeding schedules to medication administration, giving me complete peace of mind during my time away. But what truly stood out was Cindy's willingness to go above and beyond. She took the time to understand my Yorkie's specific needs and preferences, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay. In conclusion, Cindy is an exceptional dog sitter who offers a secure and loving environment for small dogs. Her daily updates, commitment to providing exceptional care, and willingness to personalize the experience make her the top choice for anyone seeking the best for their furry companions.
