Tiffany took great care of Jackson while we were away. She was very sweet with him and kept us updated throughout the weekend. She was very pleasant to work with and we would be happy to have her care for Jackson again in the future :)

My pup and I both love Julia! Julia cares for my dog as her own. I always come home to a happy pup and house exactly as I left it. Julia communicates her arrival and departure times and sends photo updates throughout her stay. My furry bestie looks forward to Julia’s next stay.

Kayla was awesome. She took great care of our two cats and our house. She’s a good communicator and and kept us informed during her stay. One of our cats requires medication three times a day, and Kayla didn’t flinch at this extra work. We’re grateful for her attentiveness and gladly recommend her without reservation.

Danielle did an above and beyond job caring for our senior dog and cat while we were on vacation. She communicated daily with photos and updates about how our pets were doing, she was transparent about her schedule, when she would be able to check in during the day, our pets behavior, health etc. She even had a great recommendation to discuss with our vet to help our dog's arthritis. This was our first time using Rover and we were admittedly a little nervous to leave our senior pets with someone they didn't know but Danielle's attentiveness made any concern disappear on day 1 and we had a much better vacation knowing Tonka and Basti were in her care. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

We have hired Angelica to take care of our two dogs Tibby and Chula when we go out of town and also occasionally when we need someone to come take them for a walk when we are working busy schedules. Tibby is a Shepherd Lab Mix and Chula is a Husky Shepherd Mix. They both have high energy and require a lot of play. Angelica is amazing with them and gives them the love and attention they deserve when we are gone. She is dependable and very knowledgeable about pet care. We trust her and highly recommend her.
