“Very friendly and made us feel very comfortable leaving our pup for the first time. He wears a pet fit bit and we could see on our app that he had plenty of exercise. The pictures and videos sent showed he had plenty of fun as well.”


“While our mini-dox Bella was somewhat nervous about being away from home, Tania and her family did what they could to make her feel comfortable. We appreciate that.”


“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”


“Cameron was sooooo good with our little ones, we will use her whenever she is available for future trips!”


“Keith and Megan were a perfect fit for my Boxer. They were loving and welcoming and I instantly felt comfortable leaving my boy with them for a 5 day stretch. They treated him like one of their own and set pictures and updated every day. I had flight issues and got laid over for an extra day and they completely took care of It and never asked for anything in return. They will always be my first pick!”



“Hamilton loved staying with Cecilia and her family over the holidays! I received updates and photos throughout his stay and Cecilia was very flexible with scheduling. Thank you so much for taking great care of him!”


“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”


“Denise was great with my cockapoo! I left him with her while I was on an extended vacation. He was taken for walks daily, nurtured with love and fed well. His diet even improved under her care. Her place is located adjacent to Delta Ponds so she is fortunate to have some wildlife come by to visit outside her back slider door. Dexter was able to see a Squirell, Blue Jay and other birds. His walks to the ponds kept him engaged and happy. He was also socialized with other dogs that she sits. All in all he came back as a better dog and was very happy to spend time with her. He had no separation anxiety at all and was very content. I received daily photos of him and was updated about how he was doing regularly. I would recommend Denise to any one looking for a sitter. Her rates are great as well.”


“So pleased to find this wonderful family! Amy, Robert and their adorable daughter took great care of my cavalier Juliet. She met a new friend, Oakland who was a sweetheart, full of energy, friendly and they got along great. I was a little nervous to see how this was going to go because it was my first time with Amy, but she made it so easy, kept me updated and I felt so comfortable with the care they were giving to Juliet. I will be reaching out again soon!”


“So thankful for Renee. She has a nice large yard to play in. My pup loved her dog instantly. She was on her own vacation at Renee’s! She even got a bath before coming home. I could tell my pup had a great time because she was tuckered out at home :) Thankyou Thankyou!”


“My dogs have stayed with Sabrina and Derrick several times now, and I know they’re always in good hands. I love the frequent text updates and pictures, it really helps set my mind at ease while I’m away. Every time I’ve dropped the pups off, they’re always so excited to see Derrick. I highly recommend them!”


“Felt very reassured that Shadow was in good hands. When I got him back he just fell asleep for the entire ride home. I would definitely bring him back. Great people to watch over your pet ❤️”


“Diane has such calm, patient energy for dogs. She has a great house and a big yard for them to run around. You can tell she loves dogs, and loves having them at her house. We felt so comfortable leaving Annie there for 10 days, which was a long stay! She was loved and cared for in every way.”


“Took great care of our dog and puppy while we were away. Got updates and pictures every day. It was nice to know they were in good hands while we were gone.”

“Julie took great care of my husky Cayde while I was away for 4 days. She would send daily pics of him and provide updates on how he is doing. I would book Julie again if ever I need to go out of town in the future.”


“Talitha was great with our sweet dog, giving her lots of love and she worked hard to make her feel welcomed. I definitely would recommend her to others!”


“Amazing couple! So communicative, so sweet and understanding with Ariston, and sent updates and photos while we were gone. I'm always nervous leaving my dog alone with someone, but they asked plenty of questions about him before we ever dropped him off, and within moments after meeting, I felt so comfortable knowing my precious dog was with such pleasant and considerate people! Will absolutely rebook again.”


“Lemon had a meet and greet with Susie a while back and has now stayed with her two times. I was totally happy with the outcome! Lemon felt so loved and cared for. Susie was enthusiastic and was so kind to send all sorts of texts and pictures while we were gone. Susie's home is so inviting. Any dog would be lucky to be in her care. We will definitely use her again. I'm sure Lemon will be eager to return. Thank you, Susie!”


“My dog Willow was so excited when she met Michelle that it was easy to leave and know she was in good hands. Dogs are good judges of character. It was so nice to receive daily updates and photos while we were gone. All truthful because we know our pup is not perfect. They seemed to figure Willow out quickly and worked with her so everyone could enjoy themselves (especially Michelle’s cat!). Thank you, Thank you Michelle and Anthony. We hope it will work out again so when we travel we can relax and Willow can have a great time as well!”


About: I worked at a zoo where I took care of reptiles birds and mammals! I have some experience in taking care of animals, from medications to trimmings to just basic feeding and bathroom breaks! I do have a kitty cat. she does get fed twice a day with her little box cleaned every 2 days and of course play time and cuddles!! Depending on the need of the animals will match what I need to do. My apartment is pet proof (cat proof) but just let me know what your animal needs and I can do it!

“I’m excited to recommend Bella as a dog walker and pet sitter on Rover! She has experience caring for both dogs and cats, and has a natural ability to connect with animals. Whether it’s a high-energy pup that needs long walks or a shy cat who needs gentle companionship, Bella can take care of your pet. She is reliable, attentive, and always go the extra mile to make sure pets feel safe and loved. I’ve seen firsthand how pets warm up to her quickly. If you're looking for someone who treats your furry companions like family, Bella is the perfect choice!”
