“Lisa and Matt are amazing people! Their love for animals is immense and instantly obvious. They are so warm-hearted, detail oriented, loving, and communicative. Our golden retriever has epilepsy and requires a special regimen of (a lot of) medication. They set alarms to ensure his medication was administered on time, provided updates about his behavior and food/water intake, sent pictures of him, and made us feel so at ease. It is hard to find and trust quality pet sitters in general, but especially when your fur baby has special needs. We would 1000% recommend Lisa and Matt to anyone looking for quality care. Leo can’t wait to go back and spend time with their family and pets 🐾🖤 thank you Lisa and Matt!”

Merve E.
“Mel (Merve) is simply AMAZING! From the very first meeting, her warm smile and genuine love for animals won our hearts. Our dog Coco, who’s usually shy around strangers, started wagging his tail non-stop the moment he saw her. She sent us plenty of photos and videos every day, making us feel like we were right there with them. With Mel, our dog wasn’t just safe—he was absolutely showered with love. When we came home, we were greeted by a happy, clean, and relaxed pup. Mel went far above and beyond our expectations. If we could give 6 stars, we would! We’ll never trust anyone else with our dog again.” 🐾💖”

Leslie D.
“I highly recommend Leslie as a dog walker on Rover! She is responsible, caring, and fantastic with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’ve personally seen how attentive and patient she is, always making sure each pup gets the exercise, attention, and love they need. Leslie is reliable, punctual, and great at following special instructions, whether it’s administering medication, handling multiple dogs, or adjusting to different energy levels. She genuinely loves caring for pets and it shows in the way they respond to her—tails wagging and happy! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and experienced to join Rover as a walker, Leslie is the perfect choice. Any pet parent would be lucky to have her caring for their furry friend! 🐶🐾”

She has immense love for every living being and you can feel it in her presence. Growing up, my mom treated our cats like they were our siblings, and she was always the first to get a call whenever friends or neighbors were going out of town and needed dog-sitting coverage. I’m so happy that Rover is giving her the opportunity to care for pets again!”
