This was our first time using Rover and we could not have been more satisfied. Monica did so well with our 2 anxious dogs. She treated them like her own and gave fun, detailed reports with each visit. We will definitely use her again in the future.

First time using Rover and jenevieve made everything so easy for us! She watched our boy milo for the week and went above and beyond for us! Milo looked as if he was missing us and so she took Milo over to her own home so Milo could play it with her pups and even got to stay the night! We appreciate everything she has done. Highly recommend this lady here!

Brad was great for my 2 dogs! One older, one a pup! His communication was timely and continuous. It was so nice to check the “card” to know what happened during his visits. He sent the best pictures, too! I will definitely use Brad again!

Tanya provided Dasher with an excellent break from a long day in his kennel. We came home to a happy, content dog! We appreciate Tanya’s willingness to spend time outside with him.

Jessica was a lifesaver on short notice. She took great care of our babies and sent photos. We got a super cute letter from the kitties :) It was nice to know they were loved on in our absence!

Maddy is awesome! She went above and beyond to take care of my dogs over the 9 days. When she saw my dog was scared during a storm, she stayed and comforted her. Communication was friendly and timely-I looked forward to the updates. Already working on the next visit. Thank you!

What can I say about tori but wow… she did such an amazing job with our cats and spent tons of extra time with them. Sent us tons of updates and pictures. Truthfully, if you need someone to watch a pet or stop by, someone who truly has a kinship with animals, tori is the one to go with. Furthermore, she’s a good person and we felt secure with her entering and leaving our house. We will exclusively use her from now on and you should too. We don’t just give good reviews, they must be earned… and she did that. Aces all the way…

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old. Dogs need a loving companion and enough attention and food and water and love. Currently unemployed so always available, Monday to Sunday anytime of the day, I can come there or you can come to me whatever works, thank you! I live in an apartment and I let them go out on the balcony. They don't bother the neighbors and most of my neighbors have dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of animals throughout my life for friends and family, both through house sitting and boarding. I am happy to accommodate special requests or accommodations so you can know your pet is being taken care of as well as they are at home! I do work 8-5, but I have a flexible enough position to be able to check in during the day if needed! I prefer cats, but I am able to dog sit or board any day of the week. I live in a two bedroom apartment with two cats. The complex has a fenced in dog park that dogs can run and play in.
