Jenny knew how to approach my two senior cats and had an instant rapport with them. I really appreciated her calm demeanor and how she wasn't afraid to ask questions. I had a couple of additional requests while away, and she was able to accommodate them and also ease my anxiety!

Riley was amazing! Our dog is old, has movement issues, and needs medication. She was so great with him! She gave wonderful updates, consistently, about our dog and cat. She sent pictures daily and was super responsive! She was absolutely great to work with, easy to communicate with, and made our vacation so relaxing because we knew our pets were taken care of so well, while we were away! Highly recommend her!

About: I have experience with elderly dogs needing diaper changes, as well as younger super active and hyper pups. I have given medications, baths, special diets, and special skin regimens to dogs before. I have often been the go to care taker for friends and family pets when they are away on vacation and have honestly loved it. I just simply love animals! I make my own work schedule and typically work a more part-time schedule and so therefore I have more availability. Playing, walking, and snuggling are things that we always have time for in this house! We have a fenced in yard with two well behaved fur babies of our own to keep your four legged family member company. It should be noted that we cannot host any dogs that are high jumpers as our fence is in place and secure, but not super tall. Our dogs are friendly and love to play! We have a plethora of toys and dogs beds throughout our home, as well as water accessible in two different places. We pick up the dog poop at least twice a week, but will commit to doing it more frequently with more dogs. We walk and play with our dogs daily and so your pup will simply just get to join in on our already very dog friendly lifestyle!

About: Pet care is not just my passion, it’s my full time purpose. Pricing cover deductions from Rover to ensure my full rate, tips are appreciated and not required. Your pets are my entire routine, whatever they need, it is my pleasure to care for them. Thank you for trusting me with your family. When your pets are with me in my home or I’m staying at yours, the routine is built around comfort, safety, and fun. That means sticking to their feeding schedules, giving them the right balance of exercise and play, and making time for cuddles and rest. I treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: I grew up with pets (both cats and dogs) and have always loved being around and caring for animals. I worked as an animal care associate at the Humane Society of Chittenden County in Burlington, VT, where I learned safe handling techniques, gained medical knowledge, and cared for a wide variety of breeds and behavioral cases. I have extensive experience with cats, dogs, and smallies of all shapes and sizes and would love to help care for yours. I have a very flexible schedule which leaves me plenty of time to walk and play with fur babies. I am available for most of every day and don't mind commuting to care for an animal. I live in a lovely neighborhood for walking and am also able to drive dogs to nearby parks and hiking trails to play and exercise. I have a cat at home who dislikes other animals so I would only be able to provide care at a client's home.

We're so grateful for Taylor taking care of our 3 babies while we took a short trip away for my birthday. They were so well cared for, we got our photo updates each day, and she even took in our mail and an unexpected package that was delivered while we were gone! This was our first time using Rover, and definitely not our last, especially with Taylor! Thanks so much for caring for our 3 kitties!!

Hannah is very conscientious and reliable! She is also very knowledgeable about cats and their behavior and quirks. Our cat Zora was hiding from her, and Hannah reassured us that she was fine and it was normal behavior for some cats. She showed us that she had eaten etc and also moved the food and water closer to where we thought she was and turned on TV for reassurance. I felt comfortable knowing that Hannah was there. If I need a pet sitter in the future, I will book Hannah!!

Lauren is AMAZING! She makes sure that Ryder is loved and cared for while I am away, picks up on his weird quirks of wanting to take stuff with him while he’s on a walk, and calms his nerves with cars. I know when she comes that he is in good hands, and he has a wonderful time with her. I wish I could give her more stars, as she is the best!! Thank you for all that you do!

April was absolutely terrific. A++++. She watched my senior kitty, Sadie, plus my other kitty, Zoe, while I was on vacation. Unfortunately, while I was gone, Sadie took a turn downhill. April gladly agreed to take her to the vet for me & had me on speaker during the vet visit. April continued to visit Zoe daily until my return. I totally recommend April. She has been kind & loving.
