8. Kelsey K.

“The last person we used from Rover was not very good so we were kinda worried using Rover again. This was our first time using Kelsey. She was awesome. Both of our dogs are seniors and have health issues. Our oldest dog has arthritis and requires pain meds, but may need more or less depending on activity level. She sometimes also refuses to eat while we are gone. We gave Kelsey some tips to gets our oldest dog to eat. Our second dog is almost scared or everything so we were worried about how she would react to a new person. Kelsey was awesome. When we came home, our nervous dog would go to Kelsey and let her love on her even though we had just gotten home. Our oldest dog who sometimes refuses to eat, Kelsey went above and beyond all of the things we told her to try. When we got home, our older dog looked beautiful and had not lost any weight. Usually when we get back from vacation, she has lost so much weight we can see her spine and sometimes her ribs because she wont eat. Kelsey took the time to figure out how to work with each of my dogs to keep them happy and healthy.”


9. Krysta C.

“Krysta is so sweet. Both my dog and my cat absolutely adored her and she made sure to keep us updated while my husband and I were out of town, sending us lots of pictures, which put both of our minds at ease. Our dog was having some separation anxiety issues and Krysta was so great. She let us know what was going on and found a way to help my dog calm down. Both pets were well cared for and I would love to have Krysta care for them again.”


10. Kalen R.

“A great friend and companion for our 2 dogs! Very communicative, professional, and friendly throughout the visit. We recommend him wholeheartedly!”


11. Katie B.

“Katie was an outstanding dog/cat sitter at our home for the week. She cared for our three cats and three dogs, all of varying age levels and needs. Throughout the week, she comforted us with pictures and updates. She made sure the house was clean when we returned. We highly recommend her!”


12. Alana C.


“Alana took such great care of my girls! 3 can be overwhelming but she was great with them! Her communication was amazing the whole time and I came home to happy fur babies!”


13. Nikki C.

“Nikki came and stayed with our pups for a week while we were out of town. It was a 10/10 experience. She went the extra mile and took care of my fur babies as her own while we were gone. I couldn’t recommend her more. ♥️”


14. Caryssa K.
“She took care of my dog niko and went above and beyond for us! She definitely knows what she is doing! I highly recommend working with her! She’s very flexible and willing to work with whatever schedule you may have!”


15. Kassandra O.
About: I've always pet sat for my friends and family. I started when I was in high school. I sincerely just love animals and it makes me happy to help others being around pets. I just do Doordashing in my free time. So I can work the two apps around each other! I started Rover last year but stopped to try other things instead and take care of my health more. I'm currently down 110lbs and ready to take care of your beautiful animals! I have my two cats right now. I'm also the one my friends and family always ask to take care of their pets when on vacation. I'm the type of person to stop and move the turtle out of the road or help a lost dog find it's way back home.


16. Wolfe S.
“Wolfe is amazing with animals they have wanted to be a vet since they could talk. They love learning everything about dog training and has went to one on one classes to learn more. Every animal loves them I swear. So whether or not your looking for a full time dog walker or cat sitter they are a top choice for best service.”


17. Melissa H.
“Melissa is an awesome dog mom. She has a pack of her own and has fostered dogs too. She is caring, responsible and is interested in providing enrichment opportunities for her dogs. Your dog would be in great hands with her as she would treat them as her own.”


18. Lisa E.
About: I grew up around dogs and cats. I love spending time with my own and would love to care for yours while you are away! I work full time Monday through Friday but can be flexible with mornings and afternoon check ins during the week with plenty of time for walks and playing in the evenings or weekends. I have elementary aged children that are animal lovers and can also offer extra play time unless you do not want kids around your pets. We are flexible and happy to spend free time with animals! I follow the pet owner’s guidance for check ins, play time, house rules, and pet needs. I am open and flexible to do what you and your pet need to feel safe and cared for while you are away!


19. Caitlyn H.

“Caitlyn is great! I worry about leaving my 2 dogs when going anywhere and I have one that is aggressive until he knows you. Caitlyn took time with him until he was comfortable with her and by the time we got home she had him out of his pen and sitting by her. What a huge relief it was to see this. We will be using Caitlyn again for sure and now maybe we won't have to board our biter when we go anywhere.”
