Nina was great, she gave us updates every day, left our home in clean condition, and most of all kept Libby company while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking Nina again! 😊

Caitlin was wonderful watching my dogs this past weekend. This is my first experience with Rover. She was highly responsive with communication. She came over to my house in advance to meet the dogs in order to ensure a smooth transition, especially given my dogs protective nature. She also walked me through the process and expectations, not having used Rover previously. My dogs took well to her and that was most important! I would absolutely book with her again.

Evelyn did an amazing job looking after our high maintenance girls! They both take medication and need things added to their food and Evelyn had no problem handling all of it. I knew things went great when they went down to the bedroom she stayed in looking for her the morning after we got home :) Evelyn also went above and beyond shoveling the walk and wash the sheets she used. Honestly can’t say enough about the great job she did!

Eva did a great job taking care of our big dogs. She was able to adapt to both of their quirky personalities and took them on regular walks. It is so nice to know your dogs are well taken care of when you are gone!! It really makes being away so much more comfortable❤️

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and needs. I grew up in a family that always had dogs, and caring for them has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. Today, I share my home with two wonderful dogs—a Cocker Spaniel and a Bulldog—who keep life fun, active, and full of love. Over the years, I've gained experience raising two puppies of different breeds, giving me a strong understanding of puppy care, training consistency, socialization, and the patience that young dogs need as they grow and learn. I've also cared for senior dogs, including administering medications and accommodating age-related mobility and health needs. In addition, I have experience working with special-needs and disabled dogs, and I understand the importance of providing compassionate, individualized care tailored to each dog's unique situation. As a teacher on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply relaxing with a caring companion, I'll make sure they receive the attention, affection, and care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I'll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, secure, and loved—just like they do with you. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and providing the same level of care I would want for my own pets! I am currently not working a set schedule so I have plenty of time for all of your pet care needs! I can do house sitting, dog walking and drop ins on any day of the week. When I stay in someone’s home to care for their pet, I will treat it with the upmost respect, leaving it better than I found it. I am clean, respectful and responsible.

Evy did a great job with our dog , Waylon. She was extremely responsive and was great during our meet and greet. We received some pictures while we were away which was much appreciated. She made everything very easy and comfortable. She was so kind to change bedding around before departure which was never asked and she cleaned the bathroom. All of that was appreciated more than she will ever know! Waylon was happy and healthy when we came home and our house was spotless! We couldn’t ask for more. We would love to use her services again!

We hired Laura to house sit and take care of our dog while we vacationed. Laura is by far the best choice we could have made. She is very professional, courteous, responsible and trustworthy. Laura provided periodic updates about how our pooch was doing, which was very much appreciated. And, she went above and beyond our expectations by leaving our house in better condition than when we turned it over to her! She is absolutely wonderful and we wouldn't hesitate to ask her to provide these services again. Thank you Laura!

This was our second time having Missy dog sit for us, and she was fantastic. We didn’t have a single worry while we were away on vacation! She communicates well and provides timely updates, which we loved. They made us smile knowing our dog was being well cared for and having her own little vacation 😊. Would highly recommend.

Anna was so awesome. She was so good wtih our Aussies from the moment we first met her. I can't leave our dogs with just anyone, but the moment we met I knew they were goin to be in great hands. I was not wrong, we had lots of updates and photos. And she clearly was having fun with them. I was able to enjoy our short get away, and not worry which is a huge relief. I am so thrilled to have found Anna, and will have her back again. She is a true professional with a huge heart for dogs, and all animals.
