Maddie was just what our family needed. She is responsible and a good communicator- our two Goldens really felt relaxed around her and she gave them really good care. Maddie even got our one storm-phobic dog through two Thunderstorms and they had all their needs met. We felt completely at ease being out of town and leaving Maddie in charge.

About: My family has rescued animals my whole life, and I have worked with all kinds of animals professionally since my very first job at a dog groomer. Since then, I've spent most of my time working at emergency animal vets, with foster dogs, and at doggie daycare! I love working with all species of animals and will treat yours just like my own! I'm here to make sure your pets feel happy, loved, and safe while you're away. I currently have a pretty open schedule and am looking to care for pets full time. I can easily do late nights and early mornings! When I stay in your home, I stick closely to your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I'll make sure they're fed on time, exercised, and getting lots of attention (and cuddles if they want them!) I pay close attention to each pet's needs and act accordingly. I pride myself on being dependable and having strong communication skills. I will always keep you updated with messages and pictures so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

Diane is incredibly thoughtful, conscientious, and kind. We have 2 dogs and 3 cats that all have particular needs, and she took the time to learn about navigating these "waters" with such consideration and professionalism. She exudes positive energy and prioritizes creating a trusting relationship with each of them, and the humans. She keeps us informed leading up to her stay, during her time with them, and after leaving. We are so grateful to work with Diane, and having our little fuzzy monsters in her care is a such a relief when we are away from home!

Dana is our go to sitter for our dog Felix. He is always excited to spend time with her and her daughter. Our pup has had ongoing medical issues that has made caring for him and leaving him alone tough for us. Dana has taken care of him like her own and I feel confident about leaving him in her care. She is also so accommodating and thoughtful while we have had some tough times dealing with Felix’s health this past year. We truly appreciate all the help she has provided us.

Justice took good care of my dog and four cats. She was very communicative and had to follow a medication regimen and somewhat complicated feeding system. I will definitely book her again when I’m next out of town!

About: Hi, I’m Lauren! I work from home, which gives me a flexible daytime schedule, and I’m also available evenings and weekends. I’m comfortable administering both pill and liquid oral medications, so you can feel confident your pet will be well cared for. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, and I’ve had animals my entire life, caring for them truly comes naturally to me. Being part of Rover has been a great way for me to not only do something I love, but also help support my own pets’ medical care. I treat every animal like they’re part of my family and always aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress free experience. I work from home so I enjoy getting out of the house and going on walks later in the day. On the weekends I like to stay busy. I always try to meet your pets while you're home if possible, this helps keep your pets from getting anxious meeting a new face. When going on walks I try to meet the dogs pace to make them as comfortable as possible, I often go on runs with my own dogs. Please let me know if there is anything extra I can do to ensure your pets comfort.

About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve just really cherished being around animals, even the ones who aren’t super cuddly. I have a lot of patience and respect for each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their people are away. I work full time during the week and try to stay busy on the weekend, but I will absolutely work my weekend schedule around you/your pet’s needs. I have a big fenced backyard and plenty of space inside for house-trained pets to relax, whether that’s on the couch, a comfy chair, or the floor. I share my home with one dog, a terrier mix named Minnie. She’s playful and friendly, but if your dog prefers to keep to themselves, I can easily keep them separated. Older dogs sometimes find her a bit too energetic, while younger pups usually have a great time playing with her.

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Brian! He stayed at our home for a full week while we were away and took amazing care of our two pets — our cat, who requires daily medication, and our older French bulldog. Both animals were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when we returned.

We had Cheryl watch our senior dog, who had only ever been left overnight with family before, so I was definitely a bit nervous. Cheryl was absolutely wonderful and put my mind at ease right away. She took such great care of our dog and kept us consistently updated, which meant so much to us. We could not be happier with the experience and will definitely be using Cheryl again in the future. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve had the pleasure of meeting dogs of all different backgrounds who have plether of needs. From walks and cuddles to medication and daily specialized routines. I know first hand how important our pets are to us and how important it is to keep them on schedule. I look forward to playing a small role in making sure your pet feels how much they are loved by you at moment when they are unable to see you. I am currently a freelance photographer and have a fairly flexible schedule. I’ve decided to make my life daily experiences a mix of two things that add joy to my life. Pets and photography. I have fully fenced yard. 1 dog 80 pounds who is a gentle teddy bear! He loves to play with dogs of all sizes and ages. I am a photographer and my schedule is fairly flexible. I would be able to stop by your home for an hour at a time 4 times a day for my house care service. When I come in I usually am already speaking so the pets are getting a feel of my personality before they get to sniff me to make sure I check out. 😌 depending on your pets needs, will determine how the rest of the visit will go. I definitely like to get in some playtime or belly rubs before I head out. I make sure my checklist is complete and will take photos throughout my visit.

Ashley’s daily presence in our home during our recent vacation was a great comfort to us and our crew of three dogs. We our so thankful that she made our trip possible and free of a concern about our dogs’ welfare. They adore her and were so happy that she got to have an extended sleepover!
