I would highly recommend Kalea! I liked her from our first meeting and felt she was competent and capable of caring for our pups and our home while we were away. She sent lots of great pics and let us know our pups were getting all the love and attention they’re use to.

Monica was amazing with our two dogs! She came for a meet and greet and I could instantly tell she knows how to handle dogs by her interactions with them. Monica was very friendly and easy to communicate with. She really tried to let the dogs stick to their normal routine as much as possible. She hung out and played with them. This was the first time we've had someone stay at our house to watch the dogs and we felt very comfortable with Monica there. We will be using her again for a longer stay! Thank you Monica!

Marcus did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, cat, and house. I received pictures throughout the trip with messages of what was going on. I came home to healthy and happy pets and my house in good order. Marcus is sweet and extremely respectful. I will book him again in a minute.

Michelle was great!!! My fur babies instantly gravitated towards her (that gave me peace of mind which isn't easy). She kept in touch, followed instructions and everything was as I'd left it. This was a a trial run prior to a longer stay coming up. Thank you Michelle for making them and me feel comfortable!!!

Matthew was great!! We have a 5 month old vizsla puppy and he came and stayed at our house. He took Mater on long walks, always sent updates, photos, and videos. Mater was so happy when we got home, but also seemed like he missed his new friend! Matthew also cleaned the sheets, made the bed and washed all the towels. He kept the house very clean! Thank you so much!

About: I am a great pet sitter because I truly care for every animal as if they were my own. I make sure they are well-fed, comfortable, and entertained, whether that means going on walks, playing, or just giving them love and attention. I’m responsible and always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care they need. Pet owners trust me because they know their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away. I love spending time with animals, and making sure they feel loved and comfortable is always my top priority. I currently working part time after school but for only 3 days so I’m available most days for pet sitting and any other things as well Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their routine, including feeding, exercise, and any special care they need. In my home, I create a pet-friendly space with plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep pets on their regular schedule to minimize stress. I always provide fresh water, clean up after them, and give plenty of love and companionship to ensure they are happy and well cared for

This was the first time we used a house sitter thru Rover.com and the experience with Jordyn B. was outstanding. We received regular updates and photos and the three dogs; Raylan (2 years), Riley (one year), and Olive (14 years) really seemed to enjoy her and being able to stay in friendly environs. I can recommend Jordyn wholeheartedly and we will definitely use her again when we are out of town and need a sitter..

Working with Skylar has been fantastic. She's a clear communicator and easy to schedule with (even when I initially messed up my own dates!) When we arrived back home, our cats and dog were all in a good mood, happy to see us but not stressed since Skylar had been here to give them attention and affection along with the food and water. We'll definitely try to book with her again in future.

A+++ Harley was knowledgeable and mature, caring and trustworthy! We could not have found anyone more qualified to pet/house sit for us. There was not one moment of concern while we were away as to whether or not our pets were in good hands. She communicated every day with photos and messages showing how happy they were. We couldn't be more grateful for her service, her time and her attention shown in loving our dogs as if they were her own.

Melissa and her family are great!! We have a challenging puppy and she can give anyone a run for their money. Melissa was up for the challenge and handled our girl in stride. She was great with communication before and during the stay. Melissa checked in daily with photos and reports of our girls behavior and progress. We brought her home tired out and thats pretty hard to do with a 9 month old bloodhound. We appreciate Melissa and will definitely be using her again. 100% Recommend!!

About: I am certainly a detail oriented person with great communication skills. I am also an honest worker and natural caregiver at heart. I have had many years working in the babysitting field along with being a pet sitter. I work part time as a bartender/server throughout the week. Typically, my schedules are released weekly on Thursdays. Mondays off are always a given and I will adjust my availability accordingly. I will always be sure to be interactive with the pets I am taking care of whether it be giving them walks, taking them to a dog park, or just playing with them inside of the house. I am also keen to providing for them whenever necessary. Following the owner’s instructions are also a necessity to me as a caregiver - along with an open stream of communication.

About: I have taken care of every kind of animal since I was 12. Goats, dogs, pigs, horses, you name it! I just can not get enough animals in my life. I was also a dog groomer in the past! I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to love on your pet and give them the quality time they deserve and need. I am always cautious and sure to keep your pet or pets safe by listening to instructions you have or using instinct I have gained from experience.

About: I am a work from home mom who loves pet sitting. I started this journey a few years ago, and has had the privilege of hosting several dogs of all ages, personalities and sizes. My children absolutely love animals, especially dogs, so there will be lots of cuddles and love from us. I take dog sitting very seriously, so I am very careful, and I always aim to please my pet parents, so I am always sending pictures, videos, and making sure your baby is happy and well taken care of. I am big on staying fit and healthy, so I take daily walks to get my steps in. I am very accommodating, so nothing is ever too much for me. I’ve had pet parents ask me to scramble eggs for their fur babies and put it on top of their dog food, and I’ve also had pet parents tell me to only feed their fur baby with a spoon, so please don’t hesitate to ask for any special request, because I aim to please! I work from home during the week and I have lots of down-time allowing me to interact and play with your fur baby . I am off during weekends and holidays I have a big house with an unfenced yard, and a loving family that will play and love on your fur baby. We will take daily walks, play outdoors, and have lots of play time and cuddles.
