“Andrew did an outstanding job with our pups while we were away on vacation. I have a very shy rescue that I was nervous to leave behind, and he took to Andrew immediately! He will be our go to from now on. He was great about sending lots of pictures, and I could tell our dogs were well taken care of. Thanks! :)”
“We are traveling in an RV and had a couple of day long tours. Mishel came in to "walk" Maggie (Bicheon) once each day for about half an hour. She did fantastic and was great with her communications. Since we were in an RV we were difficult to find and it took extra effort for her to get to Maggie. I'd give her 6 stars if Rover would allow it :-)”
“Laura is one of the best sitters I’ve ever had! Fantastic communication, lots of care for my dogs and going above and beyond to make sure my pups were happy and getting everything they needed. I would recommend her to anyone!!”
“Kim was wonderful! My cats immediately warmed to her, and she went above and beyond in visits. I felt so much more at ease travelling knowing she was taking care of my babies.”
“I’m so grateful for Megan. She was able to watch my pup with short notice. She was very kind and kept me up to date how my guy was doing. I could tell he was in great care with Megan. She let me know before she was leaving and I would love to work with her again! 11/10 stars!”
“Emma did great watching our cats while we were away. We loved the detailed notes and pictures on how they were doing! She was on time, reliable, and communicative. We will definitely book with her again!”
“This is my second time to use Danielle and she is so reliable! Her Rover card is informative and detailed and somehow she manages to get cute pics of my shy cat. I highly recommend her and hope she never leaves Rover!”
“Marissa is amazing! She has been so patient with our timid pup, Wilma. We feel super relieved having her at the house, knowing that she will show just as much care for Wilma as we do. She’s responsive, thorough, and positive. She’s a bit of a pet-whisperer, honestly. I highly recommend Marissa for anyone’s fur baby!”
“Great communication and very accommodating! Was quick to respond and super convenient by coming to my place to pick up key and meet my animals etc. Would definitely book with Luna again!”
“Wow! Thank you Madison for taking such great care of Smokey and Bandit! They absolutely loved hanging out with you and can't wait for you to pop in again. You are a total lifesaver! For those of you out there looking for a Rockstar sitter/walker --- Madison treated our dogs like her own—tons of love, long walks, and constant updates with the cutest photos. We came home to happy, relaxed pups and a spotless house. She’s reliable, caring, and simply the BEST! Book her—you’ll wish you found her sooner!”
“Katie was great with my dog. She came in for a drop in while I was at work and found a fenced lot to play fetch with him in. She was responsive and sent lots of videos of my dog having fun”
