Laura G. was an excellent catsitter with my big elder kitty, Axel. She was wonderful about establishing trust with a meet and greet, and she was flexible with our needs for Axel overnight. 10/10 experience...when I got home from out of town, I could truly tell that Axel had been cared for and adored. Laura is a total professional; the photos and videos of our beloved Axel while we were away was a nice touch every day. Laura also respected our home greatly. I felt very safe leaving instructions for Axels care and our house with Laura G. We appreciated her so much and absolutely will use her services again. Axel says thanks Laura and hopes he gets to hang out with you again soon! Use Laura, she is a rare gem!

Abby was great to work. She communicated frequently and asked questions to make sure she followed what Yoly needed. She kept Yoly in her routine and was a great house guest. I would not hesitate to book with Abby again.

Laura was great! She made our first Rover experience so easy. Didn’t have a problem with last minute plans change. Sent us pictures throughout the day and let us know we didn’t need to rush.

About: I love dogs!! I live alone and it's nice to have company. Be sure I like to spoil them and take care of all their needs. I usually make appointments as early as possible so I can be free for daytime hours. I babysit my great nephew who's 4 and can come with me too. I have a fenced in back yard and lots of walking paths in my home. They are welcomed on the furniture if you don't mind.

About: I have always grown up with pets! From cats to dogs to hamsters, everything between! I currently have two cats of my own that are my entire world so I know what it feels like to trust others to take care of your fur babies :) I do work full time, but I am available early mornings, late evenings, and full availability on weekends to hangout with any and all friends! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home. I’ll stick to your pet’s schedule, keep things neat, send plenty of updates, and make sure your furry friend gets all the love and attention they deserve while you’re gone.

About: I have been the one to take primary care of dogs and other animals since a very young age. I currently have a 10 month old puppy who I've taught to dance with me to different songs that play along with other tricks. I see dogs as everyone's best friend so I treat them with the love and kindness as if they've always been my buddy. I'm currently unemployed looking for work. My schedule is free almost every day with a few exceptions! I can make any time or place fit into my routine. I can't wait to meet and work with your furry companion. I have a young friendly Golden Doodle who always is ready to make a new friend. He has 0 instances of even barking at another dog. The dog's receive bi-hourly walks to ensure they get exercise and all the time in the world to potty in case they're potty training or may need more frequent breaks. We have plenty of puppy pads just in case too!

About: I care about animals and I’m focused more about the animals than the money and I want to make sure the customer is satisfied and happy. I get to take care of them the days I don’t go to school and I’m not forced to work hours that are inconvenient for me. I will play with pets and give them a lot of attention as well as follow any specific rules my clients will have and will treat their dogs like they want me to treat them and keep them safe.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a child and been the one to care and mantain them. I’ve trained 2 puppies who were potty trained and knew commands. I’ve administered flea medicine. I am currently doing GrubHub and I would create my schedule around my rover schedule so I could be home as much as possible. I would prefer when not boarding at my home, to be doing Rover related activities during the day and GrubHub at night. While doing GrubHub I would be able to make stops to take pets on walks or to potty or to just say hi! I have an extremely large backyard and I also go on daily runs and house members who love animals with lots of love to give! I’m currently just doing Grub Hub and I make my own schedule and could base it around my Rover Schedule no problem, although I do require working Grub Hub from 5-11 Friday’s and Saturday’s but would still be able to drop ins! I have a huge unfenced in yard so a tether would be required but would have lots of room to run! Daily runs and lots of love!!
