“Just took our new 2 year old for the first time. Jaime has been watching our 10 year of dog for almost a year now. Both love going to her place. Always love the updates daily to see how much fun they have”
“Deree and her husband were wonderful with our English bulldog, Parker! She’s not even a year old, so it meant a lot knowing they took extra care with her and paid attention to her needs as she can be very hyper at times and needs some re direction. I felt completely at ease the entire time knowing she was in such good hands. I forgot to pack enough food for the second day, and they stepped in without hesitation to make sure she was fed and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. Their yard is nice and fully fenced in, making it a safe and fun space for the dogs to play. Parker clearly had a great time she slept the entire day when she got home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl. We will definitely be using you again!”
About: Surrounding myself around pets has always given me serenity and peace. I worked at a dog resort where I fed, walked, played with, cleaned up after, and even had nap time with many dogs. I have studied dog behavior and group play through lessons given by my employment at the dog resort. I can administer medication and do my absolute best at following any requirements your fur baby needs! I have a friendly mini golden doodl), a playful toy Australian Shepherd, and two sweet cats whom I love to pieces! I also work from home and have a very flexible schedule. If you choose to get your baby taken care of by me, I will treat them like my own ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so they will have all of my attention! If they want it lol. I can also work around specific times you want your dog to eat, medication administered, etc. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that love to play! I can also provide a safe room and playpen for your dog to be in whenever I’m not home if that’s what they please!
“Best ROVER experience I have had. Wish I Could give this wonderful couple more than 5 stars. Great experience for me, but EVEN better experience from my pup. He was elated and exhausted. Perfect!”
About: I have owned pets my whole life. I have owned cats and small dogs and even big dogs including Belgian Malinois in my lifetime. I will give your dogs and cats the best love and care while watching them. I am a stay at home dog mom so I have plenty of time to care for other peoples fur babies and give them the best care and love. If your pet stays in my home they will get lots of walks and lots of play time. I have a nice neighborhood for walking.
“Absolutely amazing experience! We were regularly sent pictures and updates! He went above and beyond in communication, care, and every other aspect! We will definitely be booking again! So thankful for how Tank was loved and cared for!”
“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”
“Brittany and her husband were amazing. The night before our dog got out and cut his ear and had to have stitches and they did hesitate to help our puppy out despite the extra care that he needed and even though we were very late getting him to their house they were always upbeat and flexible as updates came in and never made us feel anything but certainty our sweet pup was being cared for. I can't recommend highly enough.”
“Ruth and her husband provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. They have great knowledge about dogs and offered a wonderful home away from home for my pup. Highly recommended.”
“Amazing sitter!! Communication was easy and Penelope was so at ease under her care! I had a great experience and I know Penelope did too! It’s so nice to know that she’s not anxious while I’m away!”
“I asked Kelley to board my dog and was very pleased with each and every aspect of her care for my dog. I called her with very short notice and she didn't hesitate to accommodate my request. I received updates throughout the stay and was assured of my pets condition. I highly recommend her service and will be sure to use her again in the future.”
“Sharon is wonderful! She maintains great communication with pics and texts during your pets stay. She is super friendly and my dog loves going to her house. I would highly recommend her and I will certainly be using her services again.”
“Darlene treated my dog Summer like family! She was so accommodating with our last minute request. She was wonderful with communication and very knowledgeable about the animals. You can feel her passion for what she does within minutes of meeting her. Thank you Darlene for taking the best care of our girl! We will definitely be using her for all future pet sitting needs.”
“Kallie is very kind and very knowledgeable about dogs. My Charlie was given a lot of attention and excellent care during his stay in her home. I amany photos daily, which eliminated my anxiety about leaving him in someone else's home. I will definitely hire Kallie again to keep my Charlie when I have to travel.”
“These have been the greatest people ever to watch our boy! They are compassionate and take very good care! We had an unexpected delay in our travel and they worked with us tremendously! 10/10 recommend!”
“I have used Rover for several years now and Bethani is by far THE best Rover sitter I’ve ever had. I know my dog is being cared for, has plenty of room to run, and can play with other dogs while I’m gone. My dog can be handful at times too, but Bethani works great with her and sends updates, photos, and videos.”
“Crystal was amazing with Baxter! We will definitely use her again when we come to town! She treated him as though he were a part of the family- could not have asked for more!”
“I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.”
