I would just like to say that I absolutely love Erin I have used her as a sitter for a long time now and every time she follows instructions to a t. Both of my kitties need a specific diet and feeding times and she always updates and ensures that I know they’re being taken well care of! She sends tons of photos and videos that melt my heart. I have come to view her as a wonderful person over all and her whole household has been amazing with my kitties. She is loving warm and over all receptive when you speak to her about any concerns or questions you may have. She is super attentive to all animals and I appreciate her so much. She has made things super great for me and my kitties love going over to her place! They feel right at home and are treated as family.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs of all ages and breeds since I was a baby but starting dog sitting about 10 years ago. In my free time, I take long walks anyway so I’d love for your pups to keep me company! I’m a student at UMass Amherst so most of my flexibility is in the mornings or late afternoons, but I’m willing to work with you on figuring out a good time to keep your pups company! I live in a dog loving home with lots of space and a yard for them to play outside. I also live in a town where there’s lots of safe areas to take a good walk.

We couldn't be happier with our experience! Our Macie had an absolute blast with Novelette. Not only did they provide animated commentaries on our pup's day, which we loved reading, but they also spent countless hours throwing the ball back and forth. It was clear that our dog was not only well cared for but also thoroughly entertained and engaged. Novelette went above and beyond to ensure our furry friend had a fantastic time. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dedicated and fun-loving dog sitter.

We can't tell you how very grateful we are to have found Kristin on Rover. This was so much more than simply a safe and healthy boarding experience! She (and Mark!) engaged our Blake in daily life like he was their own. The frequent notes and photos let us know he was happy and content, not to mention thrilled to be with other dogs! He really had a great time! To say "highly recommend!" is truly an understatement. Thank you Kristin!

About: Hi there! My name is Imani and I have a deep sense of love for all animals, especially dogs and cats :) I’ve been working alongside my girlfriend the past three years with dog walking/house sitting and after gaining so much experience and knowledge I decided to start my own profile. I’ve had the opportunity to work with many different breeds and sizes of dogs which gives me the confidence to handle any pup that comes my way! I’m extremely reliable and meticulous when it comes to my work and caring for my clients pets. My main focus is always safety, fun, and providing owners a sense of comfort while their pet is in the hands of someone they can trust. You can count on me to deliver the best job possible every time and give your pets the love and kindness they deserve. I look forward to connecting and working with you and your pets in the future! I currently have open availability and tons of time to give your pet the care and attention they need. I’m very flexible and and can always provide more care incase if an emergency/late flight etc. When providing any kind of pet care in a clients home I always make sure to be respectful of the space and follow instructions attentively. Trust is fundamentally important to me and I promise to follow any guidelines/instructions for your pet you and leave your home cleaner than when I found it.
