It was my first time using Rover, and the first time for my dog to be watched by someone outside of family. Tamara was amazing at communication, sent the cutest pictures, and made me feel so comfortable! I would highly recommend her!

I cannot recommend Stephanie enough! Stephanie is clearly someone who cares and connects deeply with all animals. She watched our two cats for 2 weeks and was responsible and punctual and we could tell she showered them with love. Her communication was great and I intend to book with her again in the future!

Leeanne is really professional and really knows what she is doing! She did a great job with my dog who is a little nervous and slower to warm up to new people.

About: With over 9 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including my beloved rescue dog Matilda, I am a passionate and experienced pet care provider. I am dedicated to providing your furry friend with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m working at a virtual part-time job at the moment, so I should have ample opportunity during the 9-5 workday to walk or check-in on your dog. I’m happy to feed your dog, make sure it goes potty, and play/walk with them outside so they get the exercise and brain stimulation they need! Happy to make sure they take their meds, and I can give them a treat too if you allow it.

Emily was fantastic with Zaria. Sounds like they got a lot of play time in so we look forward to having her back. Zaria had a little excited tinkle when Emily got there and appreciated her cleaning it up!

Sarah did an excellent job checking in on my two elderly dogs while I was away - one of whom is recovering from a major health issue and has special needs. She sent regular updates and photos, which kept me from having to worry while traveling. Highly recommended.

Joie was a wonderful sitter for our two cats and dog. Joie was timely and provided great summaries of the visits with our animals, providing comfort while we’re away. She even walked our dog in a wicked storm & dried him off when they got inside. Our night away was easy knowing they were all well cared for. Would highly recommend Joie! Thank you again!
