“Rachel is the BEST sitter we have ever had. I would book every weekend with her if I could. She sent constant updates which was great for me because I am VERY anxious leaving my pets at home for a few days. She was extremely clean and even washed the bedding for us after she left, which I couldn’t believe!! Will be using again!”
“Everything is always perfect with Robin being here with our fur babies she’s wonderful jazz absolutely loves her and I never even know that I’m gone because she’s so comfortable and the kitties are finally starting to come around they’re just a bunch of old kitties thanks Robin will see you in December”
“If we can book Grace for every upcoming trip we have, we will! INCREDIBLE. So caring and loving towards out two dogs. And on top of that, I got to come home and not clean my house. She kept it clean and tidy and even did the laundry (which she did not have to do). HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Silke took such good care of our fur babies. It’s very hard d for to leave them for and extended period of time. This was our 1st time using Rover and our 1st time hiring someone we don’t know to watch them. Silke sent us pictures everyday and kept us up to date. She made it very easy for us not to worry about them We will definitely use Silke again to watch and care for our fur babies!”
“Theo stopped by to meet my dogs before house sitting for us and they immediately fell in love with her. She has a calm and kind presence. It was nice to come home to dogs who had obviously been well cared for.”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter. Literally zero complaints, she was communicative, helpful, took notes on the goods and the bads, went above and beyond to provide service for my pets. Absolutely will be using her again, first choice.”
“Mandy was great with our pack! She took great care of the housemaid kept it nice and clean. The babies all seem to enjoy her company. If anything, they probably want us gone more often! She sent us plenty of photos and videos and also took our youngest dog out to hang out with her dog so he can get some energy out. Will definitely book again. Thank you Mandy!”
“Sammi took most excellent care of Skittles!! He was happy and healthy when I returned from my trip and the house was in perfect condition as well.

I felt very comfortable leaving my kitty and house in her care!”
“Our babies were very well taken care of while we were away, and we returned to a home that was in better condition than what we left! We received daily updates with multiple photos and the boys were taken out for walks every day. Cannot recommend enough!! Will be a returning client, for sure.”
“Brett was great at following directions, asking questions and sending updates, and tending to our enthusiastic pup! He was very flexible and thorough in the random “extra” asks we had when housesitting. Definitely recommend.”
“Vanessa really put our minds at ease while watching our dog while we were out of state for the holidays. She took care of our Boxer with just as much attention and care as we do and he absolutely loved spending time with her. I can tell that she is a dog lover just like myself! She was also very communicative, tidy, even made home made dog treats for our dog to celebrate Christmas.”

About: I’ve had 9 pets in my life and know how to handle defensive dogs. It’s been 6 months since I started taking care of a family’s old dog over night and I’m ready for more work. I’m available for any sort of service, popping by for a walk and a meal, staying overnight, or even taking the dog on a road trip 😂(serious offer) I am still in school but I don’t have responsibilities after 4pm so I have a lot of time. My weekends are free as well. Not long ago I took care of an old dog called Apollo on weekends. He was in pain and had to take multiple meds. I had to eye him all the time to make sure he wasn’t scratching himself to injuries, I gave him his drugs, cleaned up after him, and played with him when he had energy. He was lovely and taught me a lot about compassion. I can work with a dogs needs and try to build a trust based relationship with them.
