Bernice takes such good care of my fur gurls. I call her their Other Mother because she treats them as if they were her own. I love that. I know they can go to Miss Bernice and be happy and safe. Thanks again! WE LOVE YOU!!!🥰

Kassia was a great sitter for my pup. She met with me and Penny in advance to make sure we were a right fit for each other. During her stay with Kassia, Penny sent me lots of great pics to let me know she was doing just fine.

Mercedes is my pups best friend. They know, that while in her care, they will be loved and cared for. This is their second visit with her and after only minutes of being back with her and her family, they knew where they were and settled right in. My pups love her and her family. I know that in her care, there’s no need to worry about them. She’s a kind and gentle soul who will take great care of your furry babies.

Christine is a great dog sitter. Love that she has a fenced yard for the dogs to run around in. Christine sent photos daily and advised how my fur baby was doing. Highly recommend Christine and would use her again in the future.

About: I am an animal lover who has successfully raised both cats and dogs. Not only would I treat your pets as my own, but you will be updated frequently on the well-being of your pet. I enjoy all animals and have trained several dogs throughout the years. Before becoming interested in Rover, I have previously housed several dogs for friends and family members through WAG. With currently being in school to become a veterinarian, working with Rover would be a wonderful opportunity to become even more involved with taking care of animals. I am currently home full-time and will be easily accessible. With allowing me to house your fuzzy loved ones, be prepared for a very nice, professional, loving, and safe experience for the both of you. I currently work from home so I will have ample time to be present and support your fur baby. Daily walks and treats are provided I have a large fenced in yard for play time. I also provide as many updates as you need; this includes pictures and videos of your pet.

Rhea really likes Bryce and I hope they become long-term pup friends. I would definitely book again without giving it a second thought.

Chloe is a shy and cautious puppy. Janet sent me updates frequently during her stay. She cared about her happiness and went above and beyond to become friends with Chloe. I really appreciate her love for Chloe. I will definitely book with her again in the future. Now I can travel guilt free knowing my puppy is in good hands.

I couldn't have asked for a better family to take care of my puppy while I was traveling. I could tell that the family truly enjoyed taking care of my dog Mac and gave him all the love and cuddles he is used to getting. Liz provided numerous pics and updates every day single day. I will definitely re-book the next time I travel! I would highly recommend Liz and family.

Niyah did a really good job with my dog Lady. Niyah sent me pictures of Lady daily to show me that Lady was okay. Niyah was responsive when I reach out to her and she replied immediately to all of my text messages. Lady returned home happy and she was returned back to me in the same condition I left her. If I need a dog sitter in the future I would leave Lady with her again. Thank you Niyah for taking care of Lady with short notice during the Holiday.

One of the best feelings as a pet owner/sitter is knowing you are making a difference in that pet's day. Just to see them all happy,relaxed or just fed; gives me a humble satisfaction. I will be there every step of the way for your pets' needs; making sure your pet likes me and is comfortable with me.But don't take my word for it, you will see it through your pets behavior towards me. I have 4 cats that are dog friendly. They really love playing with small dogs. Finally, hope you and your pet(s) have a very bless day. I'm a full time pet sitter, I do walks during the day and house sitting or boarding afterwards. I try my best to fit your fur baby into my schedule. Meet & greets are mandatory for me. That way you can see and decide more throughly if I'm the right pet sitter for you and if your fur baby is comfortable with me.

I had Barbara watch my almost 7 year old cat for 3 nights and 4 days. She made me feel comfortable and made sure my cat was taken care of while I was away. Barbara was sweet and let my cat outside the bedroom. Her litter was clean and followed the feeding instructions. I definitely recommend her

Sandy is so sweet, and so good with our rescue pup. He needs a little extra coaxing and love, and she was so wonderful with him. We’ll definitely be calling her again, when we need someone to watch him. I can’t recommend highly enough.

I recently boarded my dogs with Jesseeka, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! She was absolutely fantastic—sending plenty of pictures, responding quickly to any questions, and making sure my dogs were well cared for. She even gave them baths, which was such a thoughtful touch! One of my dogs is quite skittish, and she went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. Another has some behavioral quirks, and she handled him with patience and skill. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she watches. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Tater was very well taken care of. I actually never met Juliana, but her boyfriend was very nice and was home for the drop off and pick up. This home is perfect for smaller pets.
