Brian is great! He asked a lot of questions during our meet and greet to get an idea of my dogs needs. He’s really good with my senior dog who needs frequent trips outside. I definitely recommend him!

Lyle did a great job taking care of our (3) dogs and (1) cat at our house for 4 days and 3 nights. The animals were well cared for - we received pictures and notes throughout the stay. He picked up our mail, brought the garbage cans up to the house and left the house in great shape. We’d definitely recommend Lyle!

Milo did an amazing job caring for my dog Juniper and cat Clara and taking care of my house while I was away for 3 days. He sent me pictures, videos, and updates and played with Juniper to make sure he had enough exercise. When I got back home, Juniper and Clara were very happy and the house looked great.

We were in a bind due to another Rover sitter backing out at the last minute. Melissa was flexible and responsive to our needs. She communicated with us frequently and shared a pic of our happy pup.

Had an amazing trip and part of that is thanks to Corena! She made everything stress free and we came home to a clean house and a happy cat and dog. She took great care of both of them and I got pictures and videos throughout our trip to keep me updated on how they were doing. I cant say enough good things about her!

Kate was amazing! She house sat our pups for 3 days while we're were on vacation and did a great job! Our dogs loved her! She was prompt, reliable, communicative and trustworthy. She sent us pics of them and was comfortable enough to ask questions. I would definitely recommend Kate and call on her again to take care of our puppers!

About: I have been an animal lover ever since I was a little girl. Outside of Rover, I have taken care of many animals for my friends while they were out of town; I often watched my roommates cats in college while they went home for weekends and breaks. When I was home in the summer, I took care of my neighbors pets while they were away. I myself have 2 dogs and a cat that mean the absolute world to me and I promise to love your animals just the same!🥰 I’m currently working part time from 8-4 on Wednesday's, Thursday’s, and Fridays. Outside of those hours, I am always available for pet sitting and dog walking. I do not have a built in fence at my house as my animals stay close by, so dogs being boarded at my house will be taken outside on a leash. In a client’s home, whatever works in your home works for me😊

Sarah was amazing with our two dogs. She sent so many pictures and took wonderful care of our home. She even comforted our pups when fireworks were going off and walked them each day. She was able to give one of our dogs a pill each day as well. We can’t recommend her enough! We will be using her again!!!

Autumn was amazing with our pup. She watched him for 9 nights and was great with him! Our first time leaving him for more than a weekend and we had zero worries. She always communicated well and provided updates. Listened to our instructions and made sure Finn had quality cuddle time. We will only use Autumn for watching Finn moving forward, highly recommend!

Milo did a terrific job watching our 3 dogs. They were happy and relaxed when we got back from our 5 day trip. The dogs took right to him from the first time they met and snuggled right up to him while we were away. I was very comfortable leaving our dogs with him. He was very reliable, sent us pictures, and left the house in great shape. I will definitely book him again soon!
