“Lori did a great job looking after my two cats. She even managed to get the skittish one to play with her. I will be seeking out Lori for future cat-sitting needs, she did an excellent job overall.”
“Kate was wonderful and I plan on using her again. She is responsible, caring and a great communicator. I was able to enjoy some time off knowing my previous babies were being cared for.”
“My first time using Rover. Julie made me very comfortable leaving my dogs sending pictures during her visits. She had good rapport with them during her meet & they “posed” well for pictures while I was gone so that rapport obviously continued.”
About: I have worked at 2 dog care facilities for 2 and a half years. I was manager at one facility and am currently a manager at the other. I have also pet sat multiple pets at once before. I work till 1 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I typically work every other Saturday. I have school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can walk dogs or stop by to care for pets most of my free time. I have a fenced in large yard. I treat pets better than I treat myself. I stop at nothing to ensure the safety and enjoyment of the pets around me.
“Olivia took great care of our little guy while we were away. She made it so much easier to enjoy our vacation by sending lots of pictures and letting us know how he was doing.”
“Kendall is a lifesaver. Our 3 dogs love her and she is an absolute professional. She was very prompt, provided detailed updates, and took some really cute pictures of our pups!”
“This is my first time using Rover and I am so happy! Mimi was awesome and took amazing care of my dog! She gave me so many sweet pictures and updates! I highly recommend Mimi!”
“Super pleased with Dani and her efforts to stay in touch with updates and photos. Even with a storm she still kept me updated with schedule changes. She also took care of my plants while I was away. Dani is super sweet and I have nothing but great things to say. Would recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy help at home with your pets (or plants!) I will be reconnecting with her in the future for any care I may need in the future with Pep!”
About: I’ve always had multiple dogs in my household since I was little, so I’m very used to taking care of animals. Since I’ve moved away, I miss my dogs and other animals a lot, so I love pet sitting! I’ve watched cats, dogs, birds, and even chickens. I’m very on time when it comes to walk and feeding schedules (and bed times if that’s something you do). At home full time so I’ll have plenty of time for your babies! I’m also very organized with my schedule so if you have any preferences or restrictions for your pets, please don’t hesitate to let me know! I live near Haydel‘s Bakery in Jefferson (such a plus right?). I have a house that has a fenced in backyard as well. Very safe and quiet neighborhood, love it!
“Celeste took wonderful care of my babies when I was out of town. She was caring and gentle especially to my timid black cat. They all loved her. She was on time and sent great pictures. Thank you, Celeste!”
“Cristina was great!! She was very communicative and provided plenty of photos of my little cat. Having her check on him gave me peace of mind while out of town! Definitely would recommend!”
“Kallie was so so so amazing! She did an amazing job communicating and sending lots of pictures, which made this super nervous pet parent’s first trip away a LOT easier! The pets warmed up to her super quickly, and she followed instructions I had left very well! Would highly recommend trusting her with your pets!”
“Great job, Cody! We felt perfectly at ease leaving our precious "girls" with you! Thank you for your attention to detail and attentiveness, they were extremely well cared for.”
“Liz was a true godsend! I travelled out of state for a month & needed drop-in care for my 4 year old cat. Liz did a stellar job! She was extremely communicative on her visits, sent photos each day with status reports on Ashling's mood & general well being. Liz performed all requested tasks extraordinarily well. Additionally, her calm demeanor gave me great comfort during this new-to-me process of arranging for pet care via an app. I will 100% reach out to Liz the next time Ashling & I need Rover App services! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
Elmwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are so fortunate to have been able to meet Natalie and have her watch our dog while out of town. From the very initial meet and greet, I knew this was going to be a great experience. She has kept in communication through the duration of her visits which is amazing for my peace of mind. She has made this such an easy transaction for North and myself. I will absolutely use her in the near future!
I cannot express how grateful I am for Hannah! She came through for me at the very last minute and completely saved the day. From the moment we connected, she was incredibly communicative, kind, and caring. She kept me updated the whole time even while overseas and I could tell she genuinely cared for my cat like her own. I truly appreciate her and will definitely be reaching out again in the future. Highly, highly recommend!!
