“Brooke is without a doubt the best Rover person we’ve ever hired! We have booked with her 3 times now and have had an amazing experience. She sends great daily updates and takes amazing care of our kitties! Brooke makes a real genuine effort to make sure our cats are happy 😃 She even cleans up after them if they make a mess. I will definitely be booking with Brooke again and would recommend her to anyone. 😻😽”

She was great at sending pictures and texts, and our cats clearly enjoyed her visits. It was so nice to have our minds at ease while we were away.”

“Very appreciative of Heather and her willingness to check in on my cat while I was away for a few days during the Christmas holiday. She responded in a timely manner to my request and was very communicative during the entire process before and during pet sitting. Heather gave me updates and photos after each visit which I loved! She is experienced with cats and was very lovely as a pet sitter. My cat Myles enjoyed her visits. Highly recommend!”

14. Laura S.
“Laura truly cared for my two dogs like they were her own. She was very attentive to their individual needs and quirks and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable with her. My one dog, Freddie, is fearful of new people and was initially skeptical of Laura. By the end of the week, she was easily his favorite human! It is a huge relief knowing your critters are well taken care of and well loved when you're away. She sent us regular photos and updates and was wonderful all around. Highly recommend!”

18. Kristin H.
About: I love dogs. I enjoy doing day trips, hiking, and exploring new dog parks. I understand your dog might feel anxious and would like to make their stay as easy and stress free as possible. I can give updates so you never feel worried about your pup. I currently work from home and have time to let your dog out during the day and for walks. Can accommodate your pups best schedule. I’ve been working from home for 4 years with my own pup so I know what it takes to keep them feeling safe and loved.
19. Stephanie H.
“Stephanie checked on our dogs while we were away for a long day. She left a great recap of their time together and shared a few pics. Communicative and exactly what we needed when we were away the whole day!”
20. Meghan D.
“Meghan took great care of my pup, Gracie! She is a nervous girl and Meghan was patient, loving and so sweet with her. She’s responsible and attentive and my Gracie was super smitten with her. She can’t wait to go back! Also, Meghan’s dog named Grizzy is adorable and gets along really well with other dogs! I’d highly recommend Meghan to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog!”
