1. Donna W.

“Donna did a wonderful job looking after my 2 kitties while I was out of town for the week! She made sure to send daily updates with pictures and I felt comfortable putting their wellbeing into her hands while I was gone. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy person to look after their fur babies!”


2. Tina V.
“I have known Tina Vela for over 40 years and would highly recommend her to Rover. Tina is responsible, honest, hard working, reliable, and trust worthy. As a pet lover she has always had cats and dogs. Recently, 2 young cats showed up in her backyard. While trying to find the owners, she made sure they had food, water, shelter and heated blankets. Eventually she was able to bring them out of the harsh weather and give them safety. She fell in love with the both kitties but her 2 resident cats were not happy! Tina was able to get the both kitties fixed and adopted to good homes. This is just one example of her compassion for animals. She is a true animal lover through and through who has a huge heart and love for “all” animals. She would be a reliable asset to Rover, while offering a “peace of mind” to the pet’s owners knowing that their fur babies are being taken care when in her care.”


3. Elizabeth H.

“Our girls just love Beth! Very sweet and accommodating for pups needing special attention for medicine/well-being. She sent multiple pictures of our babies and kept us well informed while we are away and thinking about them. Great sitter!”


4. Ava P.
“Ava is so amazing! My two doggos loved her so much and I felt very comfortable having her take care of them. I’m definitely a very protective dog mom and don’t just pick anyone. Ava was very responsive, sent many pictures of my pups while I was gone and exceeded my expectations for how she watched my dogs. I’ve had many rover sitters that would say one thing and do another and Ava was the best experience I have ever had with rover. Definitely a 5 star sitter that I would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”


5. Lauren E.

“Omg thank you so sweet went above and beyond!!”
6. Stephanee K.

“Stephanee was amazing with my dog. I could tell by the photos she sent with each visit that he was so happy to have her there with him. He has some special circumstances (aggressive on walks, needs meds with each meal, etc) and she handled it all like a pro. Will definitely book again!”


7. Cynthia A.

“Cynthia was amazing! Attentive, responsive, and flexible with my schedule. I trusted her completely taking care of my puppy. Highly recommend!”


8. Phil L.
“I have known Phil for many years and he has always had a love for animals. We have used him many times. He is reliable and is attentive to their individual needs. He takes the time to play with them and provides photos to show our pups are ok. When taking a vacation it is always hard to leave my pets but having Phil watching them because of his attentiveness know they are being well cared for and that give me the peace of mind needed to enjoy my time away.”


9. Gabriela M.


“Gabby is wonderful with our dog. He can be easily agitated but she was able to keep him calm.”


10. Audriana D.
“We first met Audrie when she knocked on our door seeking to sell us Girl Scout cookies with her mom. Discovering that she was a neighbor we asked if she would be interested in doing some cat sitting. We’re fortunate that she said yes. She subsequently became our sole support for a number of years. We had full trust in her abilities, reliability and honesty. We know she will be competent and capable care taker of all kinds of pets.”


11. Ferha M.
“Ferha has looked after my dog on multiple occasions now and she has been amazing every time! As a previous canine bahviourisy I can be exceptionally picky about who takes care of my dog, but Ferha exceeded all expectations. She follows instructions precisely, looks after him like her own dog all while following the dog rules I have in my home. You can see she truly cares and my pup absolutely loves her!”


12. Janelle T.

“Janelle was very friendly and professional. My dog Emily was comfortable and enjoyed Jenelle’s visit with. We will definitely be booking Jenelle again in the future.”


13. Eliza L.

“Eliza was absolutely great with our cats! She is patient and understanding with our more nervous cat, and allowed them both to get used to her, which paid off as they came to be very comfortable with her. She is very responsive and gladly accommodated our requests, like texting us detailed reports and sending pictures as we weren't able to use the Rover app. She even went above and beyond to make sure they were still taken care of, after encountering an issue, to the point of giving up some of her own personal time. We will definitely ask her to care for our cats again in the future!”


14. Kayla G.

“Thank you so much for taking care of the kitties. Seems like they loved having you! You were awesome!”


15. Olesia S.
“For many years, she owned charming Burmese cats. The care and affection she showed towards them was simply amazing. If I had to leave my pet for a while, I would definitely choose Olesya and trust her completely.”


16. Sara N.

“Sara was a lifesaver! I had out-of-state family obligations and my plans were fluid. She was so flexible and positive. My kitten adored her, she supplied her own toys to play with him. I wish I could tip more than 30%!”


17. Amaya B.

“Amaya made my first Rover experience amazing. She sent photos and videos every time she checked on my cat. My cat looked so happy to be with her and was even sad when Amaya finished her last visit. I am looking forward to booking her to watch my cat the next time I go out of town!”


18. Emma H.
“Emma is my go-to pet sitter whenever I'm out of town. My dog is my only baby and I wouldn't trust anyone else! My fur baby is always 110% taken care of, loved, and happy to see her, she is both reliable and responsible. I always know that I never have to worry about my pup when she in in her care!”


19. Abby S.
“Abby has helped care for two of our dogs, an older golden retreiver that is no longer with us, and our current puppy-esque 11 mo lab/mastiff mix. She employs a lot of patience and love towards our furbabies, but leads with a firm hand and has helped us to be better dog parents. She is very adept at reading dog body language, and can often times stave off issues before they get out of control. She is very repectful to the wishes of dog parents, but is great at employing her own methods within boundaries. Thank you Abby! :)”


20. Julie G.
About: I have cared for dogs of all kind since I was a child. I am a dog lover and well experienced in caring for pets. I currently work part time and work from home so I have a lot of availability to care for dogs. I am available weekends and week days as well. I have a fenced yard that is large. I have two separate gated areas in the back. I have a large garage area for playing in open space when weather is cold. Dogs are also welcomed inside, outside and in garage.
