“Allison did a great job with our elderly, diabetic dog and our cat while we were away for a trip! Our animals were well cared for, and our house was taken care of for us while we were gone. Allison followed all of our instructions, and communicated well. We would definitely reach out to Allison for help again!”
“Ashlee did a wonderful job housesitting for our 3 dogs! She was considerate of their routine and respectful of our home. She sent regular updates with pictures or videos and communicated her arrival and departure. All in all a wonderful experience working with her!”
“Daniel was amazing! He agreed to watch Jc last minute which was a huge blessing! I would 100% recommend Daniel as he made sure Jc felt safe and loved!”
“Meg is simply the best! This was her second time staying at our house with Benji, and we couldn’t be happier. She’s so kind, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. Benji absolutely lights up when he sees her. She kept us updated with photos and check-ins, which made it so easy to relax while we were away. We came home to a happy pup, a tidy house, and zero stress. It honestly feels like leaving Benji with family. Meg, thank you for loving on our boy and taking such great care of him (and our home!). We’re so grateful for you and can’t wait to have you back!”
“We were apprehensive leaving Joey with someone we didn’t know due to some special needs but felt at ease when connecting with Dawn during our meet and greet. Dawn was great and Joey was well cared for. She provided us with updates and we didn’t worry about him one bit. We’ll definitely ask Dawn to care for Joey again!! Thank you Dawn!!”
“Yasmin went above and beyond and took my kitten Sir Snuggles to the vet when he was not feeling well (with my approval) when I was on travel abroad. She even got the vet on the phone at the appointment to talk to me. She was fantastic - and Snuggs is all better now thanks to her help.”
“I appreciated Nadine sending me updates and pics of my dogs. One of my dogs is very skittish and scared, I know that couldn’t have been easy. But I know he was still well taken care of! I would book her again!”
“Mackenzie and Anthony were great! We got lots of photos and videos of the pups having a blast and we returned home to three very tired and happy pups! Thanks, again!”
“Kendra was great! Excellent communication, responsed quickly, and took great care of our girl and house! When she was gone I could barely tell anyone had been here. Got some great pictures too. We would happily book with her again”
“Emily was amazing with our two pets! We got lots of updates and photos and came home to two very happy and relaxed animals after a week away. We've already got Emily booked to come back!”
“Nancy is fabulous! Our little Buster took to her like she was family! She took such good care of him while we were gone for a long weekend. So thankful for her and felt grateful to have someone as loving and caring as her to stay with our little 3 month old Shih Tzu.”
“Abby was wonderful and very communicative. She made sure to send lots of pictures and some videos which brought me so much joy! Abby took great care of all 6 of our babies, you won't be disappointed with her service!”
About: I grew up always having cats and being a total cat lady, however after bringing home my first dog ever I realized how much I absolutely love and adore dogs! I have experience with having a dog of my own (sadly he went on to the rainbow bridge), plus caring for my sisters dog who I jokingly say is my part time dog. I also have experience with all the dogs I’ve gotten to meet through Rover. I would love to have a dog of my own again but I don’t have the proper time or space to have one right now, so I’m looking to get my fix by spending time with your dog! I’m currently available any time of day on weekends and anytime after 4:15pm during the week to care for your fur babies since I work until 4pm during the week. Im very attentive to your pets needs and making sure they are comfortable this includes lots of outdoor time with nice walks, and giving them lots of love and attention(not to mention treats!). :) I work until 4pm during the week, and I’m off on weekends. So I’m available anytime on weekends, and anytime after 4:15pm during the week to care for your fur babies! I live in an apartment with 2 cats so any pets that stay with me need to be familiar and friendly with cats. I do have a spare bedroom that I can use for separation purposes however prefer to be familiar and good around cats if I will be watching in my home. If house sitting I will be available to stay after work and will send lots of pictures and updates along the way.
“Angie is our go-to sitter. We have a senior dog with special needs and 2 senior cats, one of which takes medication daily. We never feel the need to worry about them when Angie is watching them because we know they are in good hands. Our house is exactly the way it was when we left, if not cleaner when Angie is here.”
“Natasha was an amazing dog/house sitter! She left my house spotless and sent the perfect amount of updates. We felt very comfortable with her staying at our house and taking care of our dog!!”
“Sam was nothing but amazing while we were gone! She had great communication skills, and was very professional. She sent us photos of the boys and kept us in the loop of everything going on. I would 1000% recommend her again!”
“Oh gosh where to start! She was amazing. Definitely wore the boys out which they LOVED. She even left the boys some toys and treats. Would definitely use Pricilla again!”
“Oh my gosh where do I start? Hallen was the most professional, caring, communication rover I’ve ever had. She left the house spotless, and even helped me troubleshoot internet issues happening at the house while I wasn’t there. She sent so many cute photos which were so nice and really kept me smiling while I was away. I will not be using anyone else except her in the future if I can help it. Hallen, keep being amazing…Rover of the year award should be a thing and you have my vote!”
