Kendra helped us out very last minute with a meet and greet and overnight weekend stay with our anxious lab. Bailey warmed up quickly to Kendra with her calm demeanor . Kendra was very communicative and sent us lots of pics and videos. Highly recommend Kendra!

Cammie watches our dogs while we were away for the weekend and did a great job! I messed up our door code access and she was very patient while I sorted it out remotely. Dogs were content when we got back and the house was clean!

Kristi was amazing with our crew !! She knew we had just taken in our Gracie as a rescue pug and gave her all the extra love and snuggles that she needed to feel safe and loved ....she spent lots of extra time in our home to ensure they didn't feel our absence even working remotely at our place which was great for our pugs/cats. She kept us informed of daily events and sent lots of snuggle snaps which made us feel better. Kristi even left us homemade biscotti for our return home. I can say with full confidence that Kristi is motivated by love of animals and helping others...we will most certainly hire her back to our home for all our Rover needs :)

Nicholas was a great sitter! He followed our complicated instructions to a T and made sure to give the dogs lots of exercise. He shared plenty of updates as well so we were never worried about the health and happiness of our pups.

Amoreena is so great with my dog. She’s a super high energy hunting breed so she’s not always the easiest to watch but she does such a good job meeting her needs and keeping her happy. She sends lots of photos and updates which puts my mind at ease while we’re away.

Hannah is fantastic!!! She was communicative, caring, and on top of it while taking care of my 2 dogs. Two things worth noting: 1. one day she came home and discovered one of the dogs had eaten a Reese’s peanut butter cup. And she immediately called me to see how I wanted to deal with the situation 2. She came and went as if no one had stayed in the house. Everything is just as I left it, and the dishwasher was running. Dogs love her, and she sent me so many photos! Will DEFINITELY be hiring her again.

Rachel was wonderful with our Maggie! She was very responsive to our text messages and also so flexible with our schedules and everything involving our dog. She stayed in our home with Maggie, and we returned to our house the way we left it. We highly recommend Rachel for your next pet sitter!

Darian has been nothing but amazing with my pets! I have a 7 year old golden retriever, who is highly active. And I also have a 1 year old cat. She goes above and beyond with both, but especially my dog because she’s so energetic and needy. She takes her for walks, brings her to the park and plays fetch. It’s comforting that she provides photos and updates while they’re together. She also feeds my dog and makes sure to give her the supplements she needs at the right feeding times. It makes me feel at ease when she’s taking care of my animals because I know they’re in the best hands! Highly recommend Darian to everyone!

Susan watched our dog for a week while we were out of the country. We were nervous to leave her as we’ve never left her overnight with someone we don’t know. Susan came over for a meet and greet before and put our minds at ease. While we were gone she took great care of her. Our dog is not the easiest to watch as she is super high energy and likes to get into trouble but Susan was great with her. We came home to a spotless house and a happy healthy pup.

Kristin was amazing during the 5 days that I was gone. She came over multiple times throughout the day to let my dogs out and considering my dogs can be difficult, there were no concerns at all. Will absolutely be booking her again for my other upcoming vacations.

Kenny is so great and very reliable! I had a dog sitter all set up with a family member but an issue came up and they could no longer do it. I asked him with a few days notice and he was more than willing and able to do it. I was gone for 3 days and he provided me photos and videos of our dogs playing together at the park and going on walks. He kept me updated with texts and photos which was so nice for me! He is someone I can always reach out to for help and trust!

I could tell Alyssa was the right sitter within the first 5 minutes of meeting her. She put my mind at ease while scheduling traveling plans for our 5 day trip. While she was at my house I could tell that my dog was in great hands :) She had great updates and took great care of my house as well. Look forward to using her in the future! Thank you Alyssa!

About: I’ve always loved dogs since I was a kid, having my sister bring in a new dog or cat and out of everyone of my siblings (10) I’d be the one to love and take care of them. Now, I take care of my families pets whenever they need and I’m always happy to do so. I’m currently working a full-time job. But available anytime after 5pm M-F to be with your lovely pets, and I’m always available on the weekends. I live alone and keep my place tidy. I live in an apartment but they are pet friendly and I enjoy the outdoors which means more playtime outside for the dogs.
