“Jack and Emily took very good care of Riley. They spoiled her and made her comfortable as it took her a day or two to adjust to her new surroundings. Jack was good about sending pictures and updates. He even sent her home with a special treat. Thank you for watching her for us!”
2. Kelly S.
“Great with our dog! He’s a 90 lbs husky/malamute who gets daily medication and a special diet. Kelly was excellent with him! She was great with the medication instructions and feeding, took him on long daily walks, and was very caring towards him! I would 100% book with Kelly again”

About: I have always had pets, most of my experience is with really large dogs :) I have my own pup (an 12 yr old baby) and a wild miniature tiger! Fun fact: I’ve also owned a chinchilla :) I’ve usually pet sit for friends/ family and I love it! So I thought why not just sign up? I’m excited to meet all the precious babies :) of all ages and sizes! I currently work full-time but I do work from home some days so I’d say my schedule is pretty flexible. I don’t have a problem working around anyone’s schedule :) I like to be very thorough and attentive. Knowing that all pets are different and may have their own special needs it’s important show them patience regardless if it is just a walk or a night with them. My goal is to gain a friend by meeting any pet I am trusted with :)
5. Kayligh W.
“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”
6. Alexis V.
“She took wonderful care of our pets and our home!”
7. Sarah H.

“Dina watched my kitten Emma and my dog Bobby, I was worried about bobby since he has to take his pills every day, but she did an amazing job! My house was clean how I left it :) I can’t recommend Dina more!”
10. Arianne L.
“She did a great job with my senior dog Muffintop. She saved us short notice and was so accommodating to our needs. I received picture updates regularly and felt like she was really there to take care of Muffin so she wouldn’t be alone while we were away. Great communication, so friendly.”
11. Frances A.
“This experience was the best I’ve experienced with a pet sitter! Frances went above and beyond what was expected. She took very good care of the pets. She was very attentive.

16. Lauryn W.
“Lauryn is amazing! She is my go-to pet sitter whenever we go on vacation. She’s very caring and attentive to our two large, hyper dogs; sending pictures and updates the whole time. She takes them outside to play, attends to their energy levels, and provides lots of cuddles. We also have 3 cats, 5 fish tanks, 5 exotic reptiles, and a Sun Conure! I always leave specific care instructions when we leave, and she follows them perfectly! My animals are always the picture of health, and seem so happy when we come home!”
17. Bethanie M.
“Bethanie has walked my dog Axel many times and she always does a wonderful job. I think Axel may be more excited to see her than he is to see me. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and fun dog walker.”
18. Julia R.
“Julia is a Vet Tech which gives me an extra sense of security that someone trained, and licensed in animal care is staying with my pup. I always feel extremely comfortable when Julia watches my dog, she has been my pet sitter for over a year (before she was on the Rover App) and I have the utmost trust in her to keep my dog happy, and well cared for when I am away. She is excellent at keeping me updated with pictures and texts to let me know that pup is getting walks, and all of the attention she deserves when Julia stays with her! There is no one better to trust with your beloved furry friends than Julia. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
