Melody did a wonderful job sitting for our 14 year old dog and two cats. Great communication and we felt like our animals were in good hands.

Whitney was very attentive and asked great questions on our meet and greet. That was super helpful to me as I was a first time Rover user. She's great at receiving feedback and adjusting visit-by-visit! The dogs loved her so I'll be rebooking for the next few weeks! Highly recommend Whitney as your dog sitter, she's made the whole process super easy and worry-free.

Loved Rinnah! This was my first time ever using Rover, and I had a lot of hesitation, but she made everything so easy. I had trouble figuring out the app at first, and she walked me through the whole process. She was amazing with my two large Bernedoodles, super communicative, and went above and beyond while I was away. I’d absolutely rebook with her again!

About: My name is Jacob and I have 15 years of experience caring for mine and my family's pets. I also have approximately 4 years of volunteer experience at shelters caring for cats and dogs. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds and energy levels. From tiny pups to large, strong dogs, I'm confident handling them safely and calmly. I've worked with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as leash reactivity, anxiety, fearfulness and high energy. I'm patient, attentive, and always focused on understanding each dog's unique needs. I'm autistic, and I've found that this often allows me to connect especially well with animals. I'm very attentive to body language, routines, and subtle behavior changes, which helps me respond calmly and consistently- particularly with dogs who need a little extra understanding. My goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience. My schedule is pretty flexible to do drop-in care for your pets or walks as needed. I am willing to work with clients so they can get the care they need for their pets. I am willing to do drop-in care at client's homes as needed. I can also take dogs for walks from client's homes as requested by client.

About: I am mostly experienced with cats, but I have been around dogs for years in care or for fun, just never having direct ownership of a dog. Willing to try it out! I am more than happy to watch over a pet overnight or during the day, including pet care, watering and feedings. I am also capable of walks. In my own personal care, I have raised or adopted several cats including doctors appointments, cleaning, etc. Of other clients pets I have taken care of more or less the same, all satisfied in their pets care.

Sarah is great with my high energy dogs! It’s hard for me to find care for them because one of my dogs is scared of strangers, but Sarah made her feel comfortable and relaxed. Very thankful and looking forward to future appointments!

Eric did an exceptional job! It was clear that he went above and beyond giving our cat some quality love and playtime, was communicative, and was generous with cute photos. During our meet and greet, he was punctual, knowledgeable, friendly, and curious about our cat's habits. We would highly recommend him.

It was immediately apparent to my fiancé and I that Ember has the confidence, experience, and passion that we were looking for in a dog sitter for our two German shorthair pointers, and she did a wonderful job doing a very short notice drop in visit and walk. I whole heartedly recommend her and plan to book with her again in the future!

About: Love to walk and hike, have one lovable six year lab mix that is super friendly and still thinks he's young and would love to take your dog out. I am busy most of the day but am able to house sit and/or walk your dog rain/snow or shine alone or with my lab mix. I have a six year old lab mix that could stay home, or can walk with your dog on walks/hikes. My dog loves everyone and other dogs.

Sharon and co. did a wonderful job with my boys, catsitting for three weeks. I worry of course but she sent pictures and made sure they were ok everyday. I was very happy that my more timid boy was comfortable with the new visitors right from the get go. They also cleared my driveway of snow after we got a ton RIGHT before we got home! So very sweet of them to do! I highly recommend:)

Absolutely 5/5 star pet sitter!! My picky territoral husky/lab trusts her out of everybody! She has watched my pets from 2 weeks to 3 day trips... 100% more reliable that I can explain (: I receive so many pics of each pet and a thorough detailed day of each pet so I can monitor my pets health while I'm away. Thank you for my happy & healthy pets while I'm out of town! (: <3
