Drew did a great job taking care of our 2 Shih Tzus. One needed medication given to her at definite times and the other pup is just demanding of attention! Drew shared many photos that I was happy to share with all of our family members during Thanksgiving. If Drew had a question, he immediately asked me. I felt very assured that the pups were receiving lots of care and companionship!!! I will ask Drew to help us again in the future!!

We have used Rachelle a few times now. Twice for day trips and most recently for several days and over nights. My animals bonded with her instantly. Even my cat that’s can not be bothered to like anyone loves Rochelle. I never worry about them when she’s with them. She seems to really care about the animals. Beyond that she leaves my apartment as she found it no matter how much I tell her to make herself at home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future!

Chelsey pup sat for us on the evening of July 4th. I can’t recall the last time we went out on the 4th of July because I don’t like to leave our pups alone on that evening!! However, we received an invitation that was too good to pass up on that night. Chelsey did a fantastic job keeping the pups away from the outside noises! She sent wonderful, reassuring photos of them stretched out and sound asleep!! I was so relieved!! I would highly recommend Chelsey!!!

Richard “Dylan” stayed the day with our senior girl, Dottie. She has separation anxiety and I needed to be away for a few hours. Dylan called me the day before to go over her care as this was her first time with him. He was very prompt and communicative. I definitely recommend him. He has a calming manner about him and that was much appreciated! Thank you Dylan

Melissa has been absolutely wonderful, Enzo is so excited to see her every time she either helps out with a walk or boards him overnight for the last year constantly. She is super nice and very flexible. She really makes sure he gets lots of good exercise, pets, play time, and love. Bottom line - I completely trust her and Enzo does too and I recommend her to everyone needing some help.

"Choosing Christine as a pet sitter and dog walker for our beloved Buddy was the best decision we ever made! Christine seamlessly blended expertise with a genuine love for animals, providing impeccable care that went beyond our expectations. With a keen understanding of Buddy's needs, unmatched enthusiasm, and an unwavering commitment to his well-being,Christine became Buddy's second best friend, we started to wonder if he liked her more than us! She made sure every walk and visit was filled with joy and attention. If you're looking for a trustworthy, passionate, and skilled caregiver, Christine is the golden standard for pet care excellence!"

About: Hi there, I'm Sarah, your experienced dog sitter with over a decade of hands-on experience. Growing up on a ranch, I've had the privilege of working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments from a young age. My connection with these furry friends is more than just a job; it's a lifelong passion. As a proud cat mom myself, I understand the unique joys and quirks of our feline companions too. When you entrust me with the care of your beloved pets, you can be confident that they're not only in capable hands but also a warm heart that genuinely loves and comprehends their needs. Working from home as a dog sitter has been a game-changer for both me and the pets I care for. The beauty of my job is the flexibility it offers. I can tailor my schedule around your animals' needs, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Being at home means I can create a customized routine that aligns perfectly with your pets' daily habits. Whether it's morning walks, playtime in the afternoon, or cuddles in the evening, I'm there to make sure their routine remains consistent and comforting. This flexibility also allows me to adapt quickly to any unexpected situations that may arise. If your dog needs an extra walk or your cat requires some additional playtime, I can accommodate these changes effortlessly, ensuring your pets remain content and happy. Ultimately, working from home as a dog sitter enables me to provide not only the care your pets need but also the peace of mind you deserve, knowing that your furry family members are in capable hands throughout the day. Caring for people's beloved animals in their homes is a responsibility I take very seriously. It's not just about feeding, walking, and playing with the pets – it's about creating a safe and comfortable environment where both the pets and their owners can feel at ease. First and foremost, I prioritize cleanliness. I understand the importance of maintaining a tidy and hygienic space for your pets. This means keeping their living areas clean, regularly disposing of waste, and ensuring their food and water bowls are fresh and sanitary. A clean environment is not only healthier for your pets but also promotes their overall well-being. In addition to cleanliness, I am always courteous and respectful when in your home. I treat your property with the same care and consideration as I would my own. I make sure to follow any specific instructions you provide regarding access, security, and the care of your home. You can trust that your space will be just as you left it when you return. Furthermore, I understand the importance of respecting your pets' routines and boundaries. Whether it's adhering to specific feeding schedules or respecting their personal space, I ensure that your pets feel comfortable and secure in their own home. My goal is to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both you and your animals. I believe that by maintaining a clean, courteous, and respectful approach to pet sitting, I can create a positive and nurturing environment where your pets can thrive while you're away.

Nancy's lifelong journey with pets, ranging from mice to cats to her cherished black lab, reflects her deep-seated passion for animal care. I've witnessed her dedication firsthand, as she has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure the well-being of her furry companions. What truly sets Nancy apart is her extraordinary commitment to her elderly dog. Despite the challenges that come with caring for an aging pet, her devotion shines through. She invests considerable time and effort into ensuring her dog's comfort and happiness, showcasing her unwavering love and compassion. Nancy's nurturing nature extends beyond her own pets. Her genuine love for animals, coupled with a responsible and attentive approach to their needs, makes her an ideal candidate for a caregiver role on Rover. I wholeheartedly recommend Nancy, and am confident that her caring and responsible demeanour will make her an invaluable asset to your platform.

Mari was great with Hunni. She checked in regularly with updates and photos, and she left my home as it was when I left. Hunni is kinda funny acting but I could tell she got along great with Mari. She was immediately available last minute to book and I would definitely book her again.
