“Jill is always great. I have had Jill look after my pets literally 100% of the time I have ever used Rover. I had an emergency that took me far away from home and she took great care of everything while I was out. Love the pictures she sends. Love the responsiveness and kindness. Definitely an animal person and definitely a good person.”
“This was my first time leaving my cat, and Gabriel made it feel so easy. She was so quick to respond and would send pictures and videos whenever I asked. I Whenever I checked in, she always made me feel like she was really paying attention to him. She even went out of her way to accommodate dropping him off at my place when I had asked last minute.”
“We're so happy to have found Jenny on Rover! She's super sweet and clearly loves animals. She took wonderful care of our two kitties, who, evidenced by the photos, loved her because they won't play with just anyone. We're so grateful for her patience with one of our kitties who needs daily medication. She sent thorough update after each visit and really great pictures too!”
“I had to hire Emily last minute due to my kitty getting emergency surgery 2 days before I was ? to leave the state for a week. To say she was exceptional is an understatement!!! She came twice a day, gave her meds, checked her incision daily and monitored EVERYTHING. I am more than grateful, highly recommend and will definitely will use again!!!!!”
About: Been caring for dogs since I was 5; Own a standard goldendoodle along with mini goldendoodle boys of my own. As well as a shih-tzu, so rounded out experience with dogs of varying sizes. Also have done house sitting for my relatives. I’m currently unemployed, when I do get a job/online schooling I’ll update my schedule. However, my genuine passions for animals make it less of a ‘job’ and more of a hobby :) For my own dogs, I ensure they’re walked at most every three hours. Access to water from when I wake up to a few hours before bed. ALWAYS leash my animals before I take them out. My mother is a dog trainer and taught me body language so I can tell if they’re uncomfortable or not.
About: I’ve always had a heart for little critters, both wild and domesticated. I love to get to know them and care for them and give them as good a life I can for whatever part I have in it.
