“Lindsey was amazing over a full weeklong stay with my crazy band of pets.

9. Shereen i.
“I’ve had three other dog sitters from rover before, and they’ve all been truly amazing. Shereen, however, was the best sitter I’ve ever had and it’s not even close. Our rescue dog is incredibly challenging, high energy, strong, petrified of strangers, and reactive; but Shereen won her heart over, took amazing care of her, handled everything our dog threw at her, sent amazing pictures and updates, knew exactly what to do, and even managed to train her in being less leash reactive! Thank you Shereen for being so amazing! If you can hire Shereen, do it!”
