1. Dawn B.
“We have Dawn on repeat. She is great with our animals and we feel very comfortable leaving our pups in her care. She takes great care of them, gives them plenty of love and attention and always keeps us up to date with what’s going on at the house. We live in a remote area so it’s great to have someone who can make consistent check ins multiple times a day and give the animals the love they need when we have to be gone.”
2. Genavieve B.
“My sweet baby girls were provided with so much love and attention! We could see how happy they were in each phoro/video that was sent. We highly recommend Genevieve and we will definitely be needing her again soon.”
3. Paula P.
“Paula took care of our elderly dachshund boys while we were away on vacation and showered them with so much love and attention while giving them the proper care and administering their many necessary pills. She cares deeply about all the animals she watches and ensures they’re well taken care of. We’ll be using her again and again!!”
4. Angela G.
“I am so thankful for Angela! I booked her last minute on a holiday weekend for an early morning drop-in visit. She came to meet my fur babies the Friday before their scheduled drop-in which made me feel so much more comfortable. She fed, watered, let them out to potty, and stayed an extra 30 minutes to give them some extra play/exercise time out of their kennel. She messaged me as soon as she arrived, left, gave me a report on the boys, uploaded pictures, and let me know they were safely back in their kennels before leaving. Her communication skills were great, she did everything exactly as I asked, and I know the boys were well taken care of while they were in her care! We will definitely be using Angela from here on out for all of our drop-in needs! Thank you, Angela for your excellent care!”
5. Kristen M.
“Lauren is absolutely amazing with animals! She has fostered many animals over the years for her local animal shelter. She has taken care of animals with diverse needs. Working with visually and hearing-impaired animals, as well as newborns that requires patience and specialized knowledge that she excels at. My 2 dogs absolutely adore her and get so excited when she visits!”
6. Alayna B.
“I highly recommend Alayna. She was a life saver with her reliability and flexibility. I was in town for a month of work with a sporadic schedule and changes in lodging, and she was there every day I needed her without an issue, even with short notice changes. My pups and I were grateful we found her.”
7. Kaitlynn H.
“Kaitlyn took great care of our dog! She was very responsible & showed up on time. She sent us pictures & kept us updated.”
8. Richard W.
“Wonderful with our dogs! Great service!!”
9. Kayla S.
“Kayla is absolutely wonderful! She has taken care of my dog many times for several years and I always feel comfortable leaving my pets in her hands. She really takes the time to love on my dog and give her everything she needs! I highly recommend her for caring for your animals!”
10. Cayleigh T.
“The meet-n-greet with Cayleigh went very well, and all requirements of the visit with the dogs were discussed. She followed up with a good visit where all requirements were met with no additional information needed. Good Job.”
11. Christine D.
About: I've owned animals since I was little. My husband and I started working for an animal rescue and have fostered many pets over the years. I work part time, so I have a very flexible schedule and able to accommodate anyone looking for help with their pets. I am home during evenings and weekends as well. I have a fenced yard and a doggy door so they will be able to go outside whenever they need to. I own a very playful golden retriever and a cavapoo. They love to play!
12. Grace S.
“She is very loving and caring when it comes to pets! Grace was telling me how she has a pet of her own, and she seemed really passionate about it so that reassured me. She was great to work with and very open and understanding about requests/needs. Highly recommend!”
13. Catharine J.
“I have known Catharine for over 35 years. She has dog sat/house sat for me on many occasions over the past 10 years. My dogs absolutely love her, and I have total trust in her when she is with my 2 dogs. Catharine is loving and gives my dogs the attention and care they deserve. My corgi is almost 14 now, so I like many others want someone who will be there for the needs of an elderly dog as well. Catharine is that person in all areas as a dog sitter!”
14. Kailey J.
“Kailey was wonderful. She was so good with my older dog and communicated with me the whole time. Will definitely be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”
15. Maddie M.
“My 3 dogs have never boarded anywhere so we found Maddie on Rover. She came and spent time with them and became their best friend. I would highly recommend her for your furbabies! Great job!”
16. Linda T.
“Linda is amazing with animals of all kinds. Her heart most certainly shows it. She's patient, compassionate with the slower / older ones, and good at exercise & play with the younger ones. She's helped with my dog over the years with certain diets & medications. Super thankful for her!!.”
17. Haley G.
“Haley was very attentive with taking care of my pets. She pays attention to details and communicates very well! I would use her again and again. Highly recommend!”
18. William R.
“William is a great young man. Very kind and respectful he has had pets his whole life and takes care of ours all the time. We trust him greatly”
19. Phoenix O.
“Phoenix was amazing! He was right on time everyday, extremely patient with my wild bunch (I have 3 big dogs). My babies aren’t used to being with out me so we had a couple of accidents..Phoenix responded like a champ when I feel like some people would have said that wasn’t what they were getting paid for. I think my dogs might prefer him over me at this point because he gave lots of treats. Would definitely use again! Thanks Phoenix!”
20. Jennifer B.
“Jennifer is ALWAYS my go to dog sitter!! She’s always down to the watch my fur baby. Gives her bunch of snuggles and treats, sends me pics through the days! Always saved the day last min too!! 10000/10 recommend!”
