First time using Rover and jenevieve made everything so easy for us! She watched our boy milo for the week and went above and beyond for us! Milo looked as if he was missing us and so she took Milo over to her own home so Milo could play it with her pups and even got to stay the night! We appreciate everything she has done. Highly recommend this lady here!

Kassy has been helping taking care of our animals for years. She has bathed and walked my pitbull. Her help with our foster animals has been invaluable. She has also watched our two cats. We will definitely be booking her through Rover!

Our cats are still warming up to the idea of people and tend to hide (even from us on some days), but Nichole did her best to win them over anyway. It gave me great peace of mind to know the person checking on them was so attentive, even if the cats themselves weren't enthusiastic about a new friend. Thanks so much!

About: I’ve worked with animals all my life and have been in the veterinary profession for 3 years. I have experience handling all different types of cats and dogs on all behavior levels I’m available for drops ins twice daily. I accept any days of the week as well. I will happily work with your schedule. If you have any conflicts or short notice cancellations I ask for a 24 hour notice in advance. I work in the ER/ICU as a Registered Veterinary Technician so I can determine if your pet becomes ill or is not acting how they should be. I’m a very vigilant person and respect your privacy of your home as well as your pets. I treat any animal as if it were my own!

Lacey has taken excellent care of my two Boston terriers on a regular basis for years now! One is a senior who needs carried up and down stairs with assorted health issues that come with age including needing eyedrops and different meds. The other is a high energy little guy who needs constant cuddles, playing & attention. Both absolutely adore her and I know they get the best possible care with her! I travel often for work & she’s the only person I feel comfortable leaving them with. She’s also incredible with cats of any age & temperament. Your fur kid will thank you for having her come hang out with them. Couldn’t reccomend higher.

Priscilla loves dogs and happy helped us raise our litter of Great Pyrenees/Red Bone Coon Hound puppies. She was helpful in setting up our puppy area and keeping it clean. She came and helped me keep the puppies and Mom on their feeding schedule and did all our other chores as well. She lives her own animals and is very positive person.
