Devin was a great cat sitter. They sent me updates every day which was nice while I was gone and left my apartment very clean! I would highly recommend Devin for anyone that needs a pet sitter.

Kay was fantastic with my anxious senior pup Phoebe, and made us both feel so comfortable. Phoebe has a complicated meds routine and Kay was super diligent with it. She understands Phoebe's communication style, and I can tell that Phoebe loves and trusts her. I will definitely to ask Kay to sit for Phoebe again 🙂

Brianna was such an incredible and wonderful sitter. She took very good care of my cat and home while I was away for five nights. I came home and my house was in a better state than when I had left it! Brianna made sure to send me pictures and updates throughout the day. She listened to my needs and answered any questions I had. I will definitely use Brianna again and trust her very much!!

Paul did a great job caring for my dog and communicating while I was out of town. Having a large dog finding proper care has always been a concern, but with Paul there was no reason to worry! He provided regular updates, was responsive at all times of the booking, and took great care of my dog. 10/10!

Gabrielle treated my cat like a king. I did not have to worry at all when I was away because she treats him like her own. I’m not sure if my cat even noticed I was gone. She is also an excellent and prompt communicator and not afraid to ask questions.

Tara watched our two dogs and stayed in our apartment during a long weekend. During our meet and greet, it was obvious that she was a dog lover and felt comfortable taking care of one of our medically complicated dogs. She was responsible and communicative while we were away. The pups looked happy and our place was clean upon our return. We would definitely have Tara stay with Chance and CJ again!

We have never used rover before so we were initially a little nervous about leaving our babies and going out of town. But Danielle was FANTASTIC. We felt really comfortable during our meet and greet so we booked her to watch Elsa and Frank. She was great with them both. Always made sure we were updated with their daily routine, sent us so many pictures and took such great care of our babies. She even helped train Frank who is still a puppy. Thank you Danielle!

Lydia was amazing! She was very communicative and sent lots of great pics of my happy and tired out pup. She had good questions for me and left my apartment very neat and clean! My neighbors who encountered Lydia told me she was great with my dog and seemed very sweet as well. I’ll definitely be adding her to my rotation of sitters.

It was great o have Lia back again, this time for a full week overall including overnights. She did an excellent job taking care of our senior and very needy cats and was very communicative around medication times. She sent awesome photos that showed very clearly how comfortable our little furballs were hanging out with her! We felt so much better going away knowing Lia was looking after everything at home and will definitely reach out to her again.

We loved Skylar! She was friendly and playful with our puppy while providing frequent potty breaks to prevent accidents in the house during his potty training experience. Would definitely use her again!

About: I'm new to Rover but not new to loving dogs! I've owned a dog since I was a kid, helping raise our sheltie/border collie mix since she was about about a year old. Goldie loved running after balls at the park, going on hikes, or just hanging out under my bed. Starting with her, I have a deep love for all dogs. As a sitter I'm reliable, very active, responsible, and simply love spending time with dogs. I'm a runner so I can run or walk with your pup. Petting dogs on my runs is always a highlight! I am available for house sitting, walks, and drop ins but sadly I'm not allowed to have pets at my apartment. Friends and friends of friends have relied on me for dog and cat sitting and I'm hoping to do more! I currently work from home, with a lunch hour, so I can be available for walks early,midday or late. I can house sit on most any day, since I don't need to go to the office. For house sitting, I can adapt to any care needs you have for your dog, while keeping your dog comfortable in their own space. For walks, I let the dog lead and sniff as they please, while making sure they are safe around cars, other dogs, and people.
