Our dogs are a bit of a handful and Ash did a great job! They got lots of love and attention and we felt very safe with her here. Would definitely recommend!

Jenevieve totally saved our vacation! I had originally hired another Rover sitter to drop in on our dog while we were on vacation. The other sitter didn't show up for 2 visits. Luckily I was able to book super last minute with Jenevieve and she is awesome! She was always there on time to take care of my dog. He is 15 and takes heart meds, so it's important that he gets them twice a day. She seemed to really care for my dog and sent pictures every visit. I was totally impressed with her attention to his care. If you are looking for a great sitter, look no further!

Angie did a great job taking care of my two kitties they were both relaxed, healthy, and happy when I returned. I highly recommend her... she spent a good amount of time each visit not only feeding and cleaning up but also holding and petting them. I am booking her again for my next trip this coming February.

Jada loves all animals and has her whole life. She takes excellent care of her two dogs. She’s very dependable and punctual. Her dogs have the run of her large backyard. She’d be an excellent choice to care for animals.

My chocolate lab, Otis, recently stayed with Leah and her family for eight days. He had a wonderful time playing with Leah’s dog, Bear, in a large fenced in backyard. He also had a private spot to curl up in when he needed some solitude. Leah kept me up-to-date with text messages and pictures so I could see that he was in good spirits. Leah and her family took amazing care of Otis. I will always choose her “home away from home” over a kennel in the future.

Donna has had several pets throughout her life that she has taken care of through thick and thin. She loves animals, especially dogs. I feel she would be a good fit for anyone looking to trust someone to sit with their dog.

About: I have taken care of all size and breed of dog. I’ve had pets all my life! I have a passion for animals. I would love to be able to give your pet(s) the love and care they need while you’re away ❤️ I work at a school. I can do before 8am and after 4pm Monday-Friday Weekends I’m free unless blacked out on my calendar. Summer months: my schedule opens up more. I am not afraid of any pet and I am very knowledgeable when it comes to animals but you know your pet best! I’m happy to accommodate any rules you have for your babies.

AMAZING!!! Tracy watched our fur babies while we were off getting married. INCREDIBLY professional. I gave her the number to my personal attendant; even though I got updates through the app Tracy updated the attendant so as so not bother us on our special day. I would recommend her to anyone & hope to use her again! 2 paws up
