“While we were away for Christmas Kimberly came over twice a day to check on our cat S'more. He is a blind senior cat and she went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of while we were away. She was amazing! We are so thankful!”


“Nathan and Laura were great! Awesome communication and pictures! We felt totally comfortable leaving our babies in their care. We will definitely be booking with them again!”


About: Fostered dogs with medical needs through Emotional Rescue. Experience with dogs of all life stages from puppies to senior dogs, including pregnant dogs. Experience with reactive dogs. Cat owner and have experience giving cats pills due to a cat undergoing chemo. I work remotely with a flexible schedule. So I have a good amount of available time during the week and often on weekends for both drop ins and sitting. This will obviously depend on your specific dog! I'm happy to follow owners instructions as they know their pets best. I am comfortable with giving medication, going for walks, playing with toys, doing some basic trick training and prepping dog meals.

“Chrissy took excellent care of our three kittens. They were wild and she played with them while cleaning up after them. She stayed in contact and sent photos of the visits which was great! I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to her for future visits.”


“Amber took care of my two cats, two budgee parakeet birds and our corn snake through the duration of a week by dropping into my house to feed and care for them all, twice daily. Absolutely no complaints, she rocked it, took great care of every baby under the roof and followed instructions to the exact detail! She happily accommodated our booking request over Christmas time, which says alot, but also did so with only a few weeks notice so bravo to her for her flexibility as well.”

Her ability to go with the flow and adapt to situations is one of a kind, however that does not stop her from maintaining control, following rules or creating strict routines. All in all Julia make people and animals feel loved and would be a great candidate for any Rover services you may need.”
