1. Kathleen H.
“Kathleen was great. We needed a short-notice stop in so we could attend to a family emergency and she was quick to reply and take the weight of cat care off our minds. She came right on time and sent plenty of pictures of the cats, plus one of their food bowls so we knew they were well fed.”
2. Chelsea R.
“Chelsea has done drop-in visits with my mini labradoodle for a number of months now and has done a wonderful job! She’s great with communication, my dog loves her SO much, and she lets me know when something seems off with my dog. AND she takes the cutest pictures on every walk with my dog! Chelsea is the first sitter I’ve dealt with on Rover and because of her good nature with my dog, the only one I’ve needed to reach out to!”
3. Regan M.

An added bonus is that she loves to teach dogs new commands in addition to caring for them and showing them love. Linnea was spectacular and a high recommend!”

“I have a Great Dane and Meghan has always been so wonderful with walking her. She is not always a easy walker and she always does great with her. Opal (my great dane) gets so excited to see her and spend time with her! I can recommend Meghan enough to love on your pets when you can't!”

17. Kaley B.
About: I have taken care dogs since I graduated from college in 2014. I have dog sit 2 dogs down south. I would let the owners know how they are doing and send them pics to update on their pets. I have taken care of dogs who need medicines. I can do puppies and older. I have a dog who I take out daily. I work the night shift at UPMC Monday nights to Friday nights into part of Saturday morning 8pm-4:30am. I’m available during the week days and free on the weekends. I make sure the dogs are in safe environment which they are used to by their owners. Owners usually tell me what’s their favorite thing the dogs loves to do. I make sure to include the activities that the owners do. With my past experience I have treated the pets as if they were my own. In the past owners have personally told me what makes their pet feel safe and set rules in house.

Based on these pictures and the visit descriptions everyday, I could tell that Lucy & Matt were very caring and deliberate in how they spent the time with my pets.”
