12. Emma H.

“Emma was a fantastic dog and house sitter! We'd never used Rover before and we're so happy we did and found Emma. She was very responsive and followed up to ensure a meet and greet as initially scheduled, and was detail oriented making sure she got to know their routine during that visit. During the stay, she sent pics of our babies throughout the weekend with updates on how they were - very apparent that our babes loved her! Emma was kind enough to also do a couple last minute favors around the house like watering a couple plants outside. We had a better trip away knowing she was there and are excited to have her for future needs. Thank you, Emma!”

18. Rachel B.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11. I have experience with training (to an extent), walking, feeding, bathing and playing with them :) I’m currently a student and working part time. But I’m always missing my dog back home, I will have plenty of time set aside to play with your pups. I care for pets in my home/clients home by ensuring they are happy and healthy. I do this through play time, baths, feeding, and exercise.


19. Allison R.

“Allison watched our dog Agnus for 12 days, and we scheduled two drop in visits prior to her stay to get her familiarized with our pup. She did an amazing job, our dog was happy and well cared for. Would 100% book again. Thanks for everything Allison!”


20. Allison P.

“Allison was great at watching our Dog and house while we were out of town. She sent daily photos and updates and working us into her busy schedule. I would recommend using her to anyone who is interested and would definitely use her again.”
