“Stephanie and her family took amazing care of my dog Mac(aroni)! I brought Mac for one night in February to make sure she would be comfortable for her longer stay in March. When we arrived in March to drop her off for an 11-night stay, Mac was thrilled to see Stephanie and her family! That was very reassuring. We will definitely be booking with Stephanie again in the future. Thank you!”
“Laura was an excellent care provider of our dog, Happy! Happy got sick the day after we left town… He developed pancreatitis…The vet thought from the cicadas he had eaten the days before. Laura checked with us and took him to the ER (vet) because she saw blood in his diarrhea. They kept him for two days for IVs, meds, etc. when he started eating, she was able to take him home and took excellent care of him as though he was her own dog. She cooked chicken, and rice to help him start eating again. Her dog, ‘BOO’ watched over Happy also. She kept us informed with videos and texts every day. When we got back home, Happy was clearly feeling well at Laura‘s home and happy being with BOO. Laura keeps a sharp eye on the dogs. We definitely recommend her!!!”
“Summer took great care of Lemmy! We got regular photos, she did a great job with his meds, and she was very patient with us in our first time using Rover. Summer, her family, and her own pets were great to our temperamental little chihuahua. Can’t thank her enough!”
“Melissa took care of my pup for a week, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was friendly and easy to communicate with. I could tell right away that she really loves animals. Every day, she sent me the cutest pictures and videos, which made me feel so relaxed knowing my dog was happy, safe, and having a blast. It felt like he got treated just like one of her own — lots of love, attention, and playtime. When I picked him up, he was so calm and clearly had an awesome time with her. And as a sweet bonus, she even gave me the cutest little gift when I came to get him. I’d highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thanks so much, Melissa!”
“Shirley kept my 9 month old puppy for 4 nights. My pup is very high energy but Shirley’s dogs kept her entertained. I received pictures and updates several times a day so I knew she was having a good time. Shirley loves dogs and cares for each one like they were her own. Mine has been sleeping since we got home ?”
“Brenda is so good with my puppy scout. She always gives him personal attention and make sure that he is safe and comfortable when I am away. I will continue to have scout stay with her when I am gone for this reason.”
“Charlene took great care of our baby Filson! Charlene was so kind to send us pictures and videos every day while we were gone. She has a huge heart for animals and we knew our pup was in great hands the whole time. Thank you Charlene!”
“Sandra took great care of Benny. She sent lots of photos of him playing and he seemed very happy when I picked him up! I would trust her to watch him again in the future. Thanks so much Sandra.”
“She was amazing with my dog. He had the best time and she kept me up to date with pictures and how was doing each day. They were even very accommodating when I was running 30 minutes late as well. I would absolutely book with her again if she is available.”
“We were nervous leaving our elderly small dog with a new person. Brittani took very good care of Gabby. She was even flexible with us picking up our little one late because our flights home got delayed. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone with small dogs.”
“Jill was fantastic! She was able to help us in a unique situation and kept our rescue safe healthy and happy. She was great at communicating and sent us updates while we were away. Would book her again”
“Cliffton is a polite, attentive and respectful guy who did a great job pet sitting our cat in his house. He was very easy to communicate with and he kept us informed with pictures and messages. We will not hesitate to use his services again.”
“Patti has taken care of our two fur babies twice now and we are very happy with her services. Our boys seem to really like Patti and they seem to enjoy their visits. From the pictures Patti sent us while watching our boys, the yard and patio seem perfect for small dogs without the worry of their escape. Believe me our Yorkie is an escape artist and staying with Patti we have no worries. We look forward to our next trip and booking our boy’s stay with Patti. Lynn & Denny Harley & Matey”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and currently have four large dogs – three of my own and one foster. I also volunteer with local animal rescues and spend many Fridays at the Dog Pound, giving all the animals love, walks, vaccinations, and sometimes even a trip to my home (I’m always joking that I’m one dog away from a divorce – but he knew what he was getting into!) Joining the Rover community lets me share my passion for caring with other pet owners. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members, and I’m here to provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I’ll make sure they’re happy, well cared for, and keep you updated with plenty of pictures to give you peace of mind! I’m currently staying home with my babies so I will have plenty of time to love yours! Don’t be afraid to ask about my schedule! I have a full fenced in yard. Two of my dogs are inside. One roams freely during the day with a doggy door to the outside fenced in yard. One is kenneled during the day. Both are kenneled at night. One is outside full time (unless it’s freezing cold and I have to force him inside). I also have one large kennel outside where my foster dog stays most of the time. All dogs are up to date on vaccines and receive monthly flea tick and heart guard meds. As for your home, I’m up for a meet and greet depending on what you need!
