My first time ever using Rover and I feel I am spoiled with Hadija! She is magnificent at communicating and takes extra care of my one dog with severe anxiety. I can say enough about her.

Leslie was amazing with our 2 spoiled little mini poodles and they totaly loved her! Not only did she respond to our last minute request she also went above and beyond by pampering their needs by pre-warming their food and walking them in their usual path! She is highly recommended and we will definitely reach out to her again.

This is the second time we are using Sara’s service, so this review is for our previous experience as well as this experience with Sara as our cat sitter: Sara is not just a cat sitter, she’s a care taker in general. She would keep the place clean, spend time with our cat Titan, send us prompt updates with pics and vids of Titan. She communicates very well and is a very kind person. We left a list of things to do for Titan’s care - she went above and beyond. We trust her so much and she is the ideal person you’d leave your precious animals with. You can always count on Sara!

About: Hello there! My name is Ricki and I’m an experienced dog walker and former dog bather. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I understand the amount of trust it takes to let someone else care for your animal so I’ll always treat them as my own when caring for them. The goal is to earn not only the owners trust but the animals trust as well and in doing that, I understand that animals get attached just as much as we do so if it were to become a regular job, it wouldn’t be a problem. Your furry friends deserve nothing short of the best and that’s what I’ll provide! I work from home so I’ll always be able to provide the extra attention and loving your pet needs. Not to mention sending you pet selfies to ease your mind knowing they’re in great hands! I have an open layout apartment on the first floor which is easily accessible for pets. Please note: I do not allow people into my apartment but will send a video upon request so owners feel more comfortable with where their pets will be staying! Any items that are essential to them can be be brought with them upon arrival to make them as comfortable as possible.

Michael was great with our cats! They are not socialized well and so are a little shy and Michael was patient with them and took the time they needed to warm up. Michael was incredibly responsive and kind- highly recommend him!

This was our first time using Rover. Usually our family members watch our fur babies, but this time no one in however many years were available. I was super nervous about the idea of having someone I know come and watch my puppers, but then I came across Monica’s page. She has a long list of great reviews AND she was close to home. When I met her for our first meet and greet she is truly that wonderful

About: I grew up with a German Shepherd and Siberian Husky. I now have two dogs that I adore. My babies are apart of the family. I have experience with small, medium and large breeds. I pay a lot of attention to dogs body language which allows to see when their uncomfortable or want something I work remotely, full-time. this allows me to walk my girls four times a day and play with them throughout the day as well. this also allows me to give them cuddles throughout the day I have a fenced backyard that your loving pet will be able to run around and and have all the fun. In addition, they will be walked four times a day. I have a dog room that has a Furbo (Camera) which allows me to monitor the pups while I run errands. It also loves me to throw them treats!

About: Hello 😁 I have experience with dogs of all sizes but have an extra space in my heart for larger breeds. I grew up with 4 cats, so I’m no stranger to them either! I don’t have pets of my own so that I can spend time taking care of so many others. If I get the privilege of an overnight sit, you will always come back to a clean home, guaranteed ✨ I work from home, so I’m always available for longer sits as well as shorter visits and walks. Weekdays and weekends are great, I just like to plan ahead as much as possible. I make sure to honor specific and detailed instructions so that I can provide the same level as care as you do! I want your babies to feel like you never left. I’ll never fill your shoes, but I will surely try 🙂
