Bailey is a super sitter for sure! On first meet she came ahead of time to ensure our pup was familiar with her and she knew where everything was. She’s amazing with our Rottie, who’s a huge gentle giant that demands lots of love and kisses. She took him to play consistently and ensured he had everything he needed while we were gone. Very mindful and kind sitter. Would absolutely recommend.

Siobahn has been great with our 5 month old puppy! She gives her tummy rubs, leaves great notes/updates after a check-in, and responds quickly to new requests.

Gretchen saved the day for us when we needed to be away for a Christmas weekend family event. One of our dogs is prone to barking at strangers A LOT. Though the dog is not agressive - she definitely is annoying and Gretchen was a sport to put up with the noise. We were very thankful to be with our family (w/o two big dogs!!)

Rosa dropped in and walked my anxious dog during the day while I was out of town. She sent detailed updates after each drop in, which eased my mind as I was far from home. She followed all instructions perfectly. I would absolutely reach out to Rosa again in the future.

About: I’ve on and off taken care of pets of my friends and family since middle school, and my love for animals has yet increased! I also have a little dog of my own, and caring for her has been a pleasure. Currently, I am a college student attending UNC-Chapel hill! When I am home, I am on a daily routine to feeding, walking, and caring for my dog. Consistency is key for pet care! I have a little dog who loves attention, and I give her all of it! Furbabies are my favorite thing and they need play time, yummy food, clean water, and love!

Andrew was great! It was my first time using Rover so I was a little anxious leaving my boys. Andrew was communicative, accommodating our last minute plans, and our timid orange boy came up to him for pets on the first visit, which is a great sign! 😂 Will definitely book with Andrew again!

It was an absolutely wonderful experience. Dana was patient, dedicated, and above all loving toward my extremely shy cat. Thanks to the many photos she sent, I was able to see every day that my baby was calm and comfortable. I never imagined he would come out of hiding and play in his favorite spots with her. Needless to say, her detailed reports gave me tremendous peace of mind. I also truly appreciate how clean she kept the house while I was away. I would love to book with her again.

Megan took absolutely wonderful care of our kitties while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such kind, attentive, and capable hands. She kept us updated, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and clearly treated them like her own. We came home to relaxed, well-cared-for cats and a home just as we left it. We’re so grateful for her care and would trust her again without hesitation.
