“Hannah took care of our English Bulldog, Piggie Smalls, while we were away on a cruise. She came over in advance to meet us and get to know Pigs. She was kind and loving and is a sweet young lady. She did a great job with Pigs and we will definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Cori dealt well with my dog’s anxiety about being left with a stranger. Sandi got a walk, water, play time & affection. I will definitely use Cori when we go on vacation & recommend her to anyone who wants personal attention for their dog.”
3. Angela C.
“Angela is amazing! She went the extra mile to take care of our cats while we were out of town. From searching all over our house to locate both of our cats to adding more litter to the litter boxes without asking, Angela took all of the extra steps to ensure our cats were safe and healthy! We also deeply appreciate her detailed visit notes and photos — they gave us an accurate picture of how things were going, which made us more comfortable being away. Thank you, Angela!”
4. Darian M.
“Darian was flawless! As a sitter myself, I am highly selective about who I have take care of my pack and the level of care they get when we are away. I was a little nervous about having to scramble and find someone as my usual sitter was unavailable, but I was put at ease as soon as I met Darian, she is so sweet and professional, showed up on time, amazing communicator, sent great pictures and my sweet babies looked so so happy with her. I will absolutely use her again in the future. I couldn’t ask for more. I am not easy to please when it comes to my animals, but Darian absolutely crushed it, I was able to completely relax and enjoy my trip knowing she was caring for them. Thank you a million times, I will definitely be in touch for future trips, thank you Darian!!!!”

7. Kelley B.
“This was our first time using Rover but also having someone other then a family member watch our 2 dachshunds. They can be picky on who they let into there circle and they had no issue warming up to Kelly right away! We were very nervous but Kelly was so calm and made us at ease while we were out of town. I can’t not say enough good things about her! I wish I could explain how much a relief we got knowing our babies were comfortable with Kelly and were taking such good care of! (Our dachshunds are our everything!) We will 1000000% be using Kelly in the future! She was amazing!!!!!”

15. Mikayla S.
“Mikayla is great! Highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies. She is super attentive and will love your babies as her own. She took care of my 3, 2 German Shepherds & a cocker spaniel, she did an excellent job, took them on walks 3 times a day right on time and made sure they were well feed and had clean water. Played and spend time with them at each visit, that when we got back we knew that they were well taken care of and happy! Mikayla fills out the Rover card each time and includes a lot of pictures-which I love because I get to see how much fun they we having and be part of their day. Thank you Mikayla for everything! We appreciate all your help and look forward to booking again in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of a family friend great dane and lab occasionally and have a little puppy of my own. I love pets and taking care of them :) I’m only doing school right now during the week. I have my weekends off and depending on the day, I have mornings and afternoons off. In my home I would routinely take them out on leash for a walk, give them food, and play with them. I would really just follow the routine i have with my puppy unless it needed to be changed. In a clients home I would follow instructions given to me to of course

19. Cindy L.
“Cindy walks my two dogs, a Husky and an Australian Shepherd, whenever I can't walk them. When I broke my foot, when I am traveling, whenever I am out too long during a day. She has been reliable, keeps in touch, and lets me know if there was any issue with the dogs. Both dogs love her and wait at the door when I tell them Cindy is coming. I can highly recommend her!”
