My dog takes a long time to warm up to people, but by the end of the visit he was letting Sarah pet and cuddle him! I felt a lot more at ease knowing my dog was comfortable and cared for while I way away. I have already booked with Sarah again! Highly recommend! :)

Savannah was incredible! I was able to see all the updates and love shown throughout the pictures she took every day. She was even amazing to help clean my cats’ items (and them!) which was beyond what I could’ve asked for.

Ashley is absolutely wonderful! She watched our birds while we were away and made sure they were safe, happy, and well cared for. Ashley was calm, attentive, and genuinely kind. She sent thoughtful updates/photos and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat!

Tammy was an in-house cat sitter for my two cats while my wife and I were on vacation. She always came in to ensure my two kitties were okay. Whenever we're on vacation, we worry about our kitties' well-being, but Tammy always helped us understand what was happening through clear communication. We asked her for updates and pictures, which she consistently provided. We appreciate her help each time.

Meghana was an absolute lifesaver, being able to watch Moose on short notice. Moose, our 8 month old puppy, can be quite anxious and requires a lot of care, including frequent naps (1-2 hours at a time) and a consistent routine. I was nervous as this was Moose's first time being away from us for hours, but Meghana handled everything flawlessly. She followed Moose’s routine perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and happy in her care. She even took him on a walk and made sure to give him plenty of opportunities to relax and decompress. What stood out most was how natural Meghana is with dogs. Moose, who is typically anxious around new people, warmed up to her almost instantly. Her calm and patient demeanor made him feel at ease, and it was incredible to see how quickly he was able to settle and relax in her presence. Her neighborhood is a fantastic space for dogs to safely explore on walks, and Moose thoroughly enjoyed sniffing around and investigating his surroundings. Meghana kept us updated throughout the night with pictures and messages, which was so reassuring. It was clear from the updates how comfortable and content Moose was in her calm, welcoming environment. Meghana was incredibly friendly, professional, and easy to work with. She communicated clearly, was always responsive, and made coordinating dropoff and pickup times seamless. This all made us feel completely at ease, knowing Moose was in the best hands. Meghana’s communication skills and attention to detail allowed us to fully enjoy our date night without any worries. Her skill, professionalism, and kindness make her an incredible dogsitter, and we cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter for their pets. We will absolutely be reaching out to Meghana again in the future! Thanks for taking such great care of our Moose!!!!

Theo is an animal lover, from lizards and snakes, to cats and dogs. Theo has rescued many cats. He cares for them lovingly and then finds them all a good home. However, sometimes, he can't help it and his animal family at home gets a little bigger:) Theo has watched our dog Dexter four or five times over a weekend. My dog experiences separation anxiety. Theo happily stays at our house and spends good quality time both snuggling him on the couch, as well as ensuring Dexter gets two long walks, is fed on time and ensures his water bowl is full. Theo is reliable and has a flexible schedule. I highly recommend him. Dexter does too!

About: My first pets as a child were chickens and I cared and raised them until they passed. Even training one in particular to come to me like a dog. Since then I have always loved animals and currently have a few dogs of my own with my family. I believe that all animals should have a loving home and there is nothing more endearing than to have an animal feel safe and cared for by an individual. Currently I work full time from home but can occasionally slip out to take care of some animals. I am mostly available on the weekends and would love to meet some special animals. I will gladly send you picture updates of your animal. I am more than happy to play with them, walk them and cuddle them. Whatever they need to make sure that they are happy until you arrive home I am more than happy to do.

Juliette is a rare individual who connects with pets and people alike. I have found her to be knowledgeable, compassionate, and understanding of the unique needs of my Springer Spaniel Marley. She loves her 4 legged pets and cares for them in a professional and kind manner. When it came to trustworthy pet care, leaving our sweet Marley with Juliette was the best decision we could have made. She offers a safe haven where your pet can play and feel the warmth of a caring home. Once my husband and I arrived at her home, Marley settled in immediately, at that point I knew she was in kind, caring and capable hands. When we picked up Marley she was sad to leave. I could not have made my once in lifetime trip to Thailand without Juliette! Highly recommended!!

About: I’ve taken care of animals for most of my life. I have experience with many different types of personalities and behaviors, ensuring that I know how to handle almost any situation. I’m currently in school but I do enjoy spending time with animals any chance I get. I’m available on weekends and the evenings throughout the week. I have two dogs, I make sure to take them out for walks multiple times a week. When we aren’t able to go out I like to play with them in my backyard and sometime in the house. Every once in a while I spend the week teaching them a new trick to keep them active and engaged.

Mario is fantastic with dogs! He's very attentive and truly enjoys spending time with them. He has helped me with my dogs before, and he was especially great with my high-energy pup, managing to match that energy perfectly. Plus, since he works at night, he has more time to look after the dogs during the day. I highly recommend him!

About: My whole life I’ve always had dogs, I grew up loving animals and it is one of the main reasons I work here on rover, but not only that but to also be able to help others in helping caring for their pet companion. Some of my skills and experience include : -Maintaining comfortable, clean and sanitized animal quarters. -Observation of pet behavior for signs of illness or injury. -Managed basic animal needs, including regular feeding and watering. -Conducted play sessions with multiple animals to promote socialization and reduce stress levels. -Cleaned kennels, cages, and litter boxes regularly. -Administered medication as prescribed by vets - taking pets on walks regularly to ensure exercise and socialization. (Of course with owners request or permission) -Monitored animal behavior and condition for signs of distress or serious medical issues. -Fed and provided fresh water. -Promoted physical and mental health with play time and contact -Updating owners with videos and pictures I’m currently working full time on rover but also I’m school online. I do stay at home most of the day,but there is always someone at home. When it comes to my schedule though I’m very flexible with time and I’m almost always available at short notice. I completely understand that there are emergencies and having to find a last minute sitter, that’s where I come in Though my house isn’t big from the inside, the backyard is very big and it’s enough space for all the dogs to run around and play. Of course I don’t leave them unsupervised when outside. I’m always with them at all times making sure all pups play nicely and not get into any fights
