“Kylie was very communicative and really helped us out with a last minute booking on a holiday. She was punctual, sent great updates, and instantly put our senior dog at ease. We were nervous using Rover for the 1st time, but we would highly recommend her services and will absolutely call her again the next time we need someone.”
4. Alexandria P.
“I cannot recommend Alexandria highly enough for her outstanding care of my dog, Topi. I needed help on very short notice, and Alexandria stepped in without hesitation. She was absolutely wonderful with Topi, showing great affection and attentiveness. Topi was happy and well-cared for during my absence, and it was such a relief to know she was in such capable hands. Thank you, Alexandria, for your exceptional care and kindness!”

Rachael is the one who you want to use as your dog sitter, giving you peace of mind while you are away.”
