Taylor was amazing! I reached out to Taylor last minute for a few nights of house sitting with our zoo. Our dogs all have different personalities but she made sure to cater to them all. I am so glad I found her as she was extremely accommodating and made sure to keep me updated throughout my trip away from home.

John is the best at what he does when it comes to pet care. He went above and beyond caring for our dog, cat and the house and was extremely responsible. It was our first experience with the Rover app and definitely a successful one. John sent daily pics and videos and kept us informed throughout the week. Our pets were secure and happy, and our house was spotless upon return. Exceeded my expectations. I would definitely book with him again! Thanks, John!

April was great! She ensured I was kept up to date on my senior kitty and asked questions to ensure a deep understanding of how I take care of my cat. She was transparent about her schedule and experience as well. I will definitely book April again if we need a cat sitter.

Skipper did an excellent job. I am so thankful he came and took such good care of my cats. The automatic feeder has a gel pack to keep out moisture broke and dispersed into the food. It was the perfect example of why even with an automatic feeder it is important to have someone check on the animals. Skipper provided excellent communication and updates.

About: I have tons of experience with pet care . I’ve been working with dogs for about a year now. I’ve developed skills in feeding and grooming. I’m knowledgeable about different pet needs, ensuring that each pet receives personalized attention and care. I’m currently working part-time, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available on weekends and weekdays. Flexible with times during the days. I would provide a loving and safe environment. My approach includes regular feeding schedules, plenty of playtime, and daily walks to keep them active and engaged. I play close attention to each pets individual needs. And of course always ready to give them lots of love and attention!

Tyler was amazing. Extremely communicative, but a good balance of not being overbearing. Asked the important questions, including idiosyncrasies about the dogs, and was able to send photos and updates throughout the trip. He truly bonded with them instead of treating it like just a job. We will use him again !

Nicole is an amazing sitter! I am so happy that I reached out to her when I was looking for someone to stay in our home with our 2 dogs. 1 of my dogs is very anxious, and especially around new people. Nicole took her time to get to know him and be patient with him. Everytime she updated me on our dogs, they looked happy and well taken care of. She even took them to parks a couple of times in the week and they looked so happy on their walks. We came back from our trip and our house was clean and the dogs were so happy! I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for an honest, responsible, and kind person to look after their pets! Thank you again Nicole! 10 out of 10.

I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

About: I have cared for many pets in various neighborhoods of the local area. I provide basic needs and go above and beyond to make sure the pet feels comfortable and cared for while their family is away. I work full-time and will have time to care for pets in the mornings before work and anfternoons after work. I will still make an effort to ensure your pet sticks to their normal routine as close as possible. I require a meet and greet with the pets in their home (to prevent any territorial issues) before the service for any new clients. My current living situation prevents me from hosting pets in my own home, but I ensure the pet is safe and well taken care of in their home, following the care instructions left by the family.

Emma was wonderful. I could not have wished for a better sitter for my fur babies. I received pictures and messages on how they were doing every day. She gave my old, nervous doggo the care she needed while I was away. And I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my animals were well taken care of. Thank you Emma!
