“AWESOME!!!!! I wish there were more stars than just 5. Danielle was amazing. She took great care of my furbabies and my home. She did more than I expected and sent updates with photos. I was nervous having someone I did not know in my home with my pets for 3 nights, but Danielle took care of my pets and home as if they were her own. She even striped the bed she used, washed the bedding and remade the bed, she took out the garbage and washed and put away the dishes. Completely unexpected, but greatly appreciated. She made my long weekend away much more enjoyable because I knew everything was in good hands with Danielle. She is a God Sent and a True Blessing. In case you cannot tell, I highly recommend her!!!!”
“We are so happy that Britta took care of our three dogs while we were out of town. The dogs absolutely loved her and she left our house in great shape. Appreciated her sending photos when checking in and will definitely have her come back!”
“Madelyn was terrific! She asked all the right questions in our video chat meet n greet. Communications was clear and timely. She clearly loves dogs and knows how to care for them. This was the first time w electric our 6-month old pup with a sitter and we couldn’t be happier. She checked in by text over the course of the evening and sent pictures of how things were going. Rufus loved her! She also does pet photography and took some gorgeous photos of our boy.”
About: I currently have two cats in my home. Our family has had cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Not having my own dog has been quite an adjustment for me. It was so hard saying goodbye to our beloved family members RIP Baxter and Toby💕 I find so much comfort in being a Rover. It is a wonderful part-time gig. I will treat your family like part of my own. In good weather the cat loves the outdoors. She gets along with all dogs. Or she will just ignore them. Depends on her mood. She’s a typical cat. I am a kind, caring and affectionate animal lover. I have watched the pets of my friends and family throughout the years. Looking forward to spending quality time with your loved ones. I only take in dogs that are non-shedding and under 40#’s.
“If you want a pet sitter who will treat your pets like their own, pick Mackenzie!! She is our go to pet sitter for our three dogs and two cats. She goes above and beyond every time and is so good with them all! I have dogs ranging from 7 pounds to 110 pounds and I would trust her with any of them any day! Thank you Mackenzie, my babies love you!”
“Emily was amazing! She was so good with my 2 pups. I am so thankful for the care and love she showed for Wallace and Wyatt in my home for 2 days. I love my dogs and it was so refreshing to know they were in such great hands while I was away, i was able to relax for once without worrying about them! I would recommend her to anyone.”
“This is the third time Elizbeth cared for my two dogs and one cat. This was a 2-night house-sitting job. I can't say enough positive things about how Elizabeth ensured my pets' welfare. Both dogs are pretty sensitive and have been uneasy when we have been away in the past. Not so with Elizabeth! They had a great time playing and cuddling with her, and they settled in beautifully. When we got home, I could see how comfortable they are with Elizabeth. What a difference and what a relief! I recommend Elizabeth highly for her pet sitting skills and dedication to the best care for my pets.”
About: I’ve been working at a doggy daycare/hotel for about two years now. I also grew up with 5 dogs and have always been around dogs and helping out. Whether it was feeding them, bathing, or cleaning up after them, I’ve done it all. I’ve taken care of puppies and senior dogs both inside and outside. I love all animals and would love to be considered for any pet care needs! I currently am working part time but am home most of the time. When I am home, the dogs and I play inside and out. Your pets won’t go more than 4 hours alone. I have a mostly fenced in yard for us to go out and play in. I have one older dog to keep yours company and I have one cat who minds his business and doesn’t bother dogs.
“We were so lucky to have found Stephanie! Our usual Rover recently had a baby and Stephanie happened to be available for a last minute booking. They were quick to respond, easy to communicate with and loved the boys. Everything went smoothly and we look forward to having them watch the boys again soon! We would highly recommend!”
“Isabella was wonderful watching my dog. She was very responsive with any questions or concerns I had and was always sending pictures of my dog. I went away for 6 days and couldn't feel more comfortable on vacation knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would Highly Recommend Isabella to watch any pet and I will certainly use her again for next summer!! Thank you Isabella!!”
