Mary Kay was wonderful with our two dogs and cat! We had to head out of town last minute and I felt so comfortable leaving our babies in her hands for a few days. Our animals are usually with us almost 24/7 and not used to us leaving and she took time to give them all love and potty breaks. She checked in with loads of adorable photos which helped put my mind at ease. Thank you, Mary Kay!

Caitlin was fantastic and took great care of our babies! We have an odd set up due to our cat's personalities and she handled it with no issue, and even helped the strays that we leave food out for. We'll definitely hire her again next time we're out of town.

Jeannette took great care of our little guy while we were away! I was initially apprehensive because this is the first time I’ve used Rover, but Jeannette put my mind at ease with lots of pics of our cat being spoiled while she was there. Would 100% book Jeannette again to drop in on Mo!

JJ took great care of our cat. This was my first experience with Rover and she made it very pleasant and worry free. My cat seemed to adore her as well and we really appreciated all the photos we got. We will definitely be using her again for our next trip.

My Basset Hound has medical issues and Mya is great at making sure he is well taken care of, and knows exactly how to give him medication and put eye drops in his eye. My animals love her!

Tiffany is amazing! She's such a sweetheart, and takes such good care of my fur babies. I'm very particular on who I allow to take care of my cats, and Tiffany exceeds expectations. She sends daily updates and photos, which is much appreciated. I've used her as a sitter multiple times, and I plan to continue to book with her if she's available for future dates I need. When I got my second cat, my two cats weren't getting along well. I was really nervous about leaving them while I was out of town. I expressed these concerns to Tiffany, and she took excellent care of them. They behaved better for her than they ever had for me. Ever since her visit, the two cats have gotten along much better. She's a total cat whisperer!

Paige watched my labradoodle Bella while I was out of town for a week. She stayed at my house and kept everything as I left it. She followed instructions I left for my dog and sent me updates throughout the week. Very accommodating and will book again!

About: Hi! My name is Kayla, I’m currently a student and working from from home and love dogs to my core. I have a 5 year old toy poodle named Mason. He’s so sweet & playful and he’s always looking for another puppy to play with. I have had experience with dogs my entire life, but in college I decided to get one of my own and I have no regrets yet! I will make sure your pet receives endless love and affection, long walks, loads of fun and trips to the dog park to mix and mingle. Safety of your pet is my priority so there’s no need to worry while they’re under my watch. I understand how stressful it can be to find someone you trust with your baby, so I will be sure to keep you updated throughout our day. I enjoy taking photos of my dog and nature so expect pictures updates as well. I am super flexible so for whatever you need, don’t hesitate to ask! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I’m available for daily walks, drop in visits and boarding. I work from home so I have the time and flexibility to care for your pet and give them the attention they need throughout the day. I am very respectful of your space and your dog and their’s. Making sure only do what I am advised to and anything outside of that I’d check with the owner prior.

Hannah was great with our boys! She was responsive and flexible to our schedules. She was able to take care of our two giant dogs when we were away for drop-in visits. One of our dogs is a very senior dog, and she had no issues giving some extra encouragement and care. We'll be requesting to book Hannah again soon!
