About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.

Elizabeth stayed at our house to pet sit for our senior kitty. Elizabeth gave picture updates and was communicative the entire time while we were away. When we arrived, our kitty had clearly gotten tons of care and attention! The house was also kept clean and tidy just like when we left. Will definitely be using Elizabeth on future trips!

Todd was excellent with our little one. He was prompt and courteous and loved spending time with “sharkey” baby teeth. He stayed at our condo the week we were gone. He played with him all the time, kept up with his current training and learning activities. They were best buds together. Bubby even cried out for him when he went to his car. Condo was left neat and straight and he even cleaned. Couldn’t ask for more gentle and positive sitter for our newbie (13week baby). It was a joy to find such a great sitter and will definitely use him in the future. He also has a medical background if needed.

THIS IS BIG! ROCCO LOVES CAITLIN :D! We threw EVERY spoiled little bratdog curveball at Caitlin and she delivered excellent poochy care with each loving pet, hug and cookie! (Truly, Schnoz was likely a cat in a previous life and is disgusted by all humans' inadequacies.) Caitlin spent three (probably long days) in our home with our moody little knucklehead .. and with us popping in and out. We were all a handful! Caitlin was prompt, caring, detail-oriented and devoted to Rocco having a bestest time ever while Mom & Dad were gallivanting around Funk Fest without him. (He even got to stop at his beloved Golden Lantern where all of the bartenders have finally earned their keys to his heart.) Our happiest moment was when Caitlyn sent over a picture of Rocco ALLOWING her to snuggle him. NO SMALL FEAT! Caitlin, you're a GODDESS, and we're thrilled to have found you! (Rocco is, too, even though he'll never admit it.) See you soon! :D

We are sooo thankful for Cheryl! Our dog requires a lot of extra care and attention for her urinary incontinence, and we got so lucky finding Cheryl. Her extensive experience caring for animals at all life and health stages helped ease our worry and stress leaving our fur babies home for a long weekend. She took great care of our babies, and we came home to a clean house and happy fur babies. Couldn’t ask for better, thank you!!!

I never write reviews because I like to maintain my privacy. Nevertheless, it would be an absolute crime if i did not leave a review for Bianca. She is a top tier sitter. She created daily reports on how my fur babies did each day; sending me pictures throughout the day. She kept my house spotless, but most importantly my fur babies happy. She took them on multiple walks and I could tell they now miss her since we have returned. She will now be my 1st choice every time i use Rover. Thank you Bianca!

Jamie was fantastic! I contacted her last minute and she easily jumped in as an overnight dog sitter for a long weekend. She is great with my dogs. One is a puppy and the other a senior dog. Both dogs quickly took to her and they enjoyed their new sitter. Jamie is very attentive, honest, caring and flexible. She made my trip so much easier without worrying about the dogs or house. She took care of my dogs and house as if they were her own. I’d recommend Jamie to anyone! I’ll definitely be booking her again! She is the best!

Macie was great taking care of Ava during the long weekend. She went above and beyond at caring and playing with her. She even took care of the house and did way more than expected. Ava had the best time and was as happy as can be when I got home. Her communication was perfect, and I knew Ava was in good hands.

Emily was the best pet-sitter we have ever had! She was caring, responsible, and had great communication. We received lots of pictures of our fur babies, and she checked in often, putting our minds at ease. We came home to very happy animals and our home was cleaner than how we left it. We will definitely be asking Emily to pet sit again!

She has watched my dog several times now - from occasional pop ins for feeds and pets to doing overnights while I am working out of state. I trust her with not only my sweet fur nugget but also my home while away. She's trustworthy and friendly and communicates with images during her appointments. Highly recommend.
