1. Jessica F.

“Jessica is the best! She's super trustworthy and kind. My senior cat, Watson, fell in love with her. Jessica wrote great reports about her visit each time she came & she took excellent care of him & kept me posted with photos. When I returned home from my trip, Watson was relaxed and content which made me so relieved. I recommend Jessica!”

5. Alexa A.

“I have 2 semi-standoffish dogs, and I always worry about them being taken care of by someone else. Alexa was the absolute best person! She was so patient and kind with my pups and made me feel so good and comfortable while she was at our home.”


6. Nicholas B.
“Nick has been taking care of my dogs when we are out of town for years. Very attentive and my pups love him. Highly recommend him!”


7. Haley S.

“Haley was exceptional in caring for our dog! Our dog is overly shy/anxious and Haley was amazing in how she approached getting our dog to trust her. It wasn’t easy, time consuming, and didn’t happen in a day but kept trying until she earned our dog’s trust! She stayed longer than she needed to when our dog was being skittish to ensure she got the necessities during a visit. Haley provided updates for every session including an overview of the session, pictures, videos, and even did some training with our dog! She played with our dog/took her for walks when she noticed our dog needed to burn some energy. She also reached out to us with any questions and asked for our opinion when needed. I will definitely be using Haley to watch our dog in the future!”


8. Elizabeth E.

“Elizabeth was prompt and took great care of my pup. She was easy to get a hold of and responded super quickly ahead of my booking and then sent lots of photos after the visit. My pup was well cared for! Will definitely book again.”

“Kelsey is literally the best ever! I have a timid Great Dane and and Boxer Mastiff, and they love her and get so excited when I ask or tell them Kelsey’s coming today! I recently was im a bind traveling for work and Kelsey has been a lifesaver. She literally goes above and beyond without asking and I look forward to the Rover reports! Can’t say enough great things about her and definitely trust Kelsey with my furr babies.”

She also is great with cats and knows how to interact and play with them but also give them their space. Izilda is a great animal person and shows every pet, small or big, the love and care they need.”


16. Lana S.

“It was a wonderful experience to have Lana look over our three cats. She very quickly became friends with all three even two that are normally very reserved with new people. She went above and beyond with live updates, photos and videos. Made me feel totally happy that the fellas were in good hands while we were away. Would ? recommend Lana to anyone needing Roger services. I totally love this app/service and how it can connect you with people like Lana who are so good with our furry friends. ?”

“We had a wonderful experience with Marideth. She was incredibly attentive and caring towards our little boy, ensuring he was well taken care of during our absence. We returned home to find everything just as we left it, a testament to her respect for our home. Additionally, her regular text updates and photos kept us informed and reassured about our pet’s well-being. We highly recommend her services.”


18. Melissa K.

“Melissa was incredible. I was in town for a little over. A month for work and used Melissa for a check in every day for an hour. My puppy was 5 months at the time. She sent pics every day and status updates. My puppy loved her and always looked forward to seeing her. Super reliable and great with dogs”




19. Carolyn B.

“Carolyn was easy to get a hold of and very responsible- she made it over to see my cat just days after the blizzard! I also appreciated that she kept my place tidy, despite my cat's best efforts.”


20. Sarah W.
About: I have had constant dogs in my life since I was 6 years old and have never looked back! Being around dogs is an absolute joy for me. My cattle dog Otto has been with me for 13 years now and we have grown up together in many ways. He was my first dog as an adult so learning how to take care of a puppy to now him in his senior years has been challenging but so incredibly worth it. I am happy to work with whatever needs your dog has and nothing is too much for me personally. All animals deserve love and care. I am a local business owner of a photography business therefore all of my hours are made by myself! During the week is typically very open for me so being able to spend time with your pup is more than achievable for me to do. My weekends are typically what are the most busy so Saturdays unfortunately are not usually available for me. I truly believe that all animals deserve compassion and love so with that being said, I treat all pets as if they were my own family. I myself am a helicopter dog mom, so I am incredibly attentive, am always on the lookout for possible disasters (chicken bones on a walk, dogs getting into things, health symptoms, etc). My pets free roam in the house while I am home however I am always keeping an eye on them. We play throughout the day, go on walks, have time for mental stimulation games and then of course some good cuddling. Not only am I well educated when it comes to health concerns of pets but am incredibly dedicated to making sure your pet is well taken care of and feels no discomfort without your presence. I am meant to be your step in as closely as possible! Your pets are in the safest of hands as this is not a responsibility I would ever take lightly.
