Myia (pronounced my-ee-uh, IPA: /maɪˈiː.ə/) was absolutely incredible. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a Rover sitter who treats your pets like they’re her own. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly attentive to every detail. She followed all of our instructions to a T, but what really stood out was how much she went beyond the basics. You can tell she genuinely cares. Our pets got real love and attention, not just a quick check-in. We also had a situation with our cat being injured, and Myia handled it with so much calm, patience, and extra care. She kept a close eye, made sure both the cat and our dog were comfortable, and gave us the peace of mind you can’t really put a price on when you’re away. On top of being an excellent sitter, she’s just a genuinely great human with an awesome soul. We feel lucky we found her, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Myia again.

Lex was an excellent In-house sitter for our 4 pets while we were away for Christmas Holiday.She lovingly cared for our 2 little 10 yr old dogs and 2 cats that had never been apart from us .She sent updated pics and messages. She made 2 meet and greets prior to our scheduled booking just so the pets could get used to her.She left the house spotless! If it wasn’t for Lex, we could never had gone away for the Holiday. Our dogs are paper trained only and Lex kept up with that meticulously and cleaned the litter box regularly. We would highly recommend Lex to anyone needing a loving and nurturing pet sitter. She is very trust worthy to let stay in your home.Lex will be our go-to pet sitter again for sure!!

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s dogs for many years. I make sure to walk them every day with a balanced meal. I will bathe your dog if requested or as needed. I’m a recent college graduate so I’m available most of the week. I’m ready to devote myself to giving care to animals and I love spending time with them. I live in an apartment with my partner and our two cats so, I’ll only be able to provide services at the client’s house. I will take the dog on leash if there is no fence. I have worked in animal clinic in the kennel so I experience with crating dogs at night. I additionally love spending time with cats and will play with them. I like to meet cats where they are at and not push their boundaries.

About: I have been caring for animals since I was a child. I started small with hamster and fish, eventually teaching myself to care for larger species through rigorous online teachings and experience. I work part time so that I can spend as much time working with and caring for animals as possible. Ideally taking care of at least 3 pets a day would be best case for me. I do not have the ability to care for pets in my home but I do have the knowledge and experience to crate fur babies when needed without causing them distress. I am familiar with getting animals of all domestic sizes into a state of calm for walks or sleep time or even cuddles after a long day of missing their folks.

Lauren was very communicative and responsive for our entire vacation. She went above and beyond to make sure Forest had what he needed and even got him out on some nice long walks. She also made sure things around the house were taken care and even took a few additional requests with ease. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone else who needs loyal and proper care for their furry friends.

Samantha was absolutely amazing and made me feel so comfortable leaving my pets with someone for the first time. She gave me daily updates, cleaned up my dog, and even took care of my cat’s litter. She sent pictures of my babies every day, which made me so happy and gave me so much peace of mind. Not to mention, my house was well taken care of when I returned. She is absolutely wonderful, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies!

Linda went above and beyond taking care of our pups while we were out of town for the night. We had a last minute schedule change due to an emergency and Linda was responsive and flexible. We have two fussy eaters and Linda was patient and tentative with frequent updates to ensure they both ate. We also loved all of the photos we received of our puppies happily snuggling while we were away! We would absolutely recommend Linda to anyone looking for an experienced and professional dog sitter!

We felt 100% confident leaving them in such loving and capable hands and were not disappointed. We look forward to having her back. Lulu and Stella love her too! We highly recommend Evelyn!

We felt so comfortable leaving our pup in Cheyenne’s care! Cheyenne went out of her way to make sure our girl was not only safe and cared for, but also had so much fun playing while we were away. We received such great photos and updates while we were gone, and knew our girl was in the best hands. We had so much confidence knowing Cheyenne’s extensive history and experience with animals, which was even more reassuring (our pup has seizures from time to time and takes a daily medication). Cheyenne was also so respectful of our home, and always communicated promptly and professionally. Thank you again, Cheyenne!!

Nicole took such good care of our golden retriever Tanner and tuxedo cat Milo for a week while we were away. She gave them both a lot of attention, took Tanner out on walks and made sure they both received a lot of love and treats. I enjoyed the pictures of both of them each day and I could see they were both happy and enjoying her care. She made sure the house was tidy and picked up after our week away which I greatly appreciated. She is an excellent pet sitter.

Nina was wonderful with our shy boy. She is calm but confident which was perfect for our dog who is not so sure of new people. She communicated often and sent pictures so we could see for ourselves how well he was doing. She left the house clean and even watered my wilting plants. I would have her watch Boomer again anytime.
