Heather was wonderful house sitting for our dog and cat. We enjoyed the pictures and texts daily,so we could see how they were doing. Our pets ate well and were very at home with Hearher. They loved her, and we feel the same.

This was our first time utilizing ROVER sitters, and I am so glad we were led to Lindsey. From our initial meet and greet, our three-year-old playful and energetic Shepherd Theo loved her.She asked very thoughtful questions about his routine, and we could tell she genuinely loves animals. She quickly put our minds at ease as we had to go out of town for the day. I highly recommend Lindsay and we will definitely be reaching out to her again.🤗

Aubrey was wonderful!!!! She took great care of our babies and send a ton of pics to keep us updated. When we got home the dogs were super excited to see us but after a few minutes they were right back at Aubrey’s side. That’s a great sign!

We are so thankful we found Caylene! Our dogs love her & had the best time with her while we were away. It’s always comforting to have someone you can trust to care for your fur babies when you’re not home. The dogs can’t wait for their next visit!

About: Full disclosure I have not been paid to care for dogs yet however i did raise a puppy from a couple months to a year and worked on training. Ive also grown up with and cared for all types of dogs and dog sizes. I have cared for senior dogs as well. Bathing, walking, clipping nails, giving medication, feeding, basic training etc are all things I have experience with. I am currently waiting on a review for school, as of right now i am free any day of the week. After I start school it will only take up 4 days of the weekday and be mornings/early afternoons where i am not available. In the clients home, i will adhere to the needs/wants of care to a T such as what times to walk/play with your pets, feeding times, bathing, cleaning up as soon as possible if a mess is made, sending pictures of your pets to reassure or just because, etc. I will care for your pet as if my own, and respect any and all boundaries made.

Lauren was friendly and even came a little early! I left for work knowing Diego was a happy pup in good hands. He greeted her with lots of kisses and even took the initiative to find out where cleaning supplies were after I mentioned Diego happy pees and cleaned up after him without needing to be asked. We will definitely be repeat customers! Thanks Lauren :)

Lauren is AWESOME! My dogs instantly loved her, and she played frisbee in the hot, hot heat until one pup was satisfied, and snuggled with the other to his hearts content.

Nate was amazing. Our two dogs and cat love him. He followed all instructions and shared several pics each day. He also took the animals on walks and gave them ample cuddle time. We will definitely invite Nate back.

Our first time using Rover and Adriana. It worked out quite well. Adriana was great! She was responsive and on time for our meet and greet and her scheduled dog sitting event. She was very sweet and continued to smile when our big 90 lb baby Remi happily (and powerfully) greeted her, Mr Remi as she affectionately called him. She followed our instructions as discussed. She sent pictures and text updates during her stay with Mr Remi and left our home just as neat as when she arrived. We are feeling fairly confident and happy we have found our Rover match! We look forward to calling on her again to stay with Mr Remi and continuing to foster a healthy and safe dog care relationship.

About: When it comes to the type of dogs in my life, I have owned large shepards to small chihuahuas. Currently, I have a five year old Plott Hound mix. You could say she keeps me busy with walks and playtime! Open to doing lots of outdoor activities with any pup that comes into my life. I have recently relocated from the Delaware Area to West Virginia. Walking and playing with dogs really is therapeutic for me! I’m looking to pursuing a career with Animal Care and figured this was a great place to acquire more quality & training time. I’m pretty energetic and have a great connection with most dogs. I meet them on their level and earn their love and trust over time. It’s a knack I’ve always had and really cater to what the animal and owner need. It’s a case by case situation every time I meet a pup! Waking up with my pup keeps me out of bed and physical every day. She is relentless with her need to be outdoors! She keeps me young. Breaking up a day or week is a nice change. I don't have a standard work schedule so I have the flexibility to do this for enjoyment rather than a job. I would love to have animals stay with me but it isn't something I am able to offer at the current moment and time. Maybe in the future.

About: Grew up with Dachunds, then had 3 large dogs during marriage now I have the youngest one left with me Baylee May about 6 yrs old. I often dog sat for multiple friends and family. I am very flexable. I do not currently have a full time job and only am busy when my step children need to be taken to school in the mornings, but even that only takes an hr out of my day. I am extremely reliable and trustworthy. I value and respect peoples homes, items and ofcourse their pets. I would always treat every pet the way I expect people to treat mine. I can provide refrences if needed.

Taylor was a last minute lifesaver because I accidentally booked the wrong dates with our regular in home dog sitter. Outside of this, Taylor did an awesome job with our three rambunctious dogs, sent updates with pictures and even vacuumed before she left. We can’t wait to rebook with Taylor!

Kristine is a warm and caring individual and my dogs picked up on that immediately. She was fantastic with our three German Shepherds. She took great care of our dogs and our home while we were away. She was respectful of our property, cleaned up after herself and the dogs, and went above and beyond by mopping up after a rainstorm and even throwing linens in the wash before we returned. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so thoughtfully. Great communication, too. I would absolutely book Kristine again and highly recommend. Kristine, if you’re reading this, thank you so much for putting up with all the shedding, the Shepherds were dropping their coats like crazy.

About: I have had animals throughout my whole life. The animal I’ve had with me the longest is my 16 year old chihuahua. I’ve had him since I was 5 years old. I grew up with him and I take really good care of him. He’s very healthy and also very spoiled. As of right now I’m only doing the dog walking service and the dog and cat drop ins. I am available anytime as of right now. I will give them lots of attention and love. If they have certain times they eat at I will feed them at those times. Whenever they need to go potty I will let them out if there is a fenced yard or I will walk them if there is not a fenced yard.

She was great! My cat warmed up to her quickly even though it took him 1 year to warm up to me! She helped me in a bind with my car keys and was understanding when I forgot to leave her my house keys. We worked it out.
