My dogs are slow to warm up to strangers but based on the original meet and greet, how they acted when Rohit returned to dog sit, and the videos he sent, they did relax and warm up to him. I love that they were comfortable around him and he sent pictures showing they were eating, which my dogs often won’t do when not comfortable around someone.

Nick was fantastic!!! He came through for us when we were in a last-minute pinch when another sitter cancelled on us unexpectedly. He was immediately available for a meet and greet, extremely well-prepared, and communicative throughout the entire stay. Our dog was the happiest camper and our home was spotless upon returning. We will definitely be reaching out to Nick again and we’re incredibly grateful for his care!

Jennifer was great with Kona. We were first time Rover users with a dog that we were slightly nervous of leaving with someone new and she was absolutely fantastic. From the first meeting, she made us feel comfortable and confident in choosing her. She was kind, responsive, and professional. Throughout her stay we remained updated with pictures and came home to a clean house and happy dog. She will be highly recommended by us to all moving forward!

Beatrice was perfect at her job, both my cat and I agree! The very best cat sitter I’ve ever had, I came home to a house, perfectly clean and had vacuumed around the litter and everything done perfectly. She sent the most beautiful pictures of my cat, and I could tell he loved being with her and she stayed exactly the time that I asked. I will certainly be using Beatrice again, as I’ve never had anyone better than her, do not hesitate to book her. She is perfection at taking care of cats and such a sweet person! 5 stars all the way :)

Erin was AWESOME. I was very concerned about leaving my 16yr old fur baby anywhere but his home due to his age and aliments but I was also nervous about leaving a stranger in my home with him while I was away...then I got to meet Erin and she was a God Send. She was so pleasant and kind I immediately got good vibes and felt comfortable to leave my old man in her care. She took great care of him and my home. She sent me pics and videos daily which really help keep me at ease. I was able to truly enjoy my trip because I knew my Max and home was in good hands. I would definitely use Erin's services again. She's wonderful.

About: I am very hard working and a huge animal lover. I am usually a babysitter and have been for years, but I would love to add animals to the care giving list. I had owned two dogs and take care of them myself. I have volunteered at an animal shelter with my church and loved every minute of it. I am very positive, loving and dedicated person. Care giving for animals and people is a personal love of mine. I have a very open schedule and am extremely flexible with hours. Any request, big or small, is never out of the question. I am extremely thorough and thoughtful when it comes to any task needing to be done. I will do anything for customer and animal satisfactory! I am currently on leave for work because I had suffered from a back injury and am still recovering. So for the time being, I am very available! I have a fenced yard for my cat and it’s very safe. He is very content and my past dogs have used it as well. I’ve yet to experience a clients home!

Alex did a great job watching our dog Ralphie in our home! We have never left him home with a sitter before but Alex was very responsive and communicative! She made us feel very comfortable during our time away and assured us Ralphie was safe and happy! We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was taken care of & she sent us some photo updates which were so cute! I highly recommend booking Alex for your pet care needs.

Stephanie did a great job taking care of my two high maintenance dogs( one senior with medical needs and one very anxious) for two weeks. The house was also was very clean( couldn’t even tell anyone had been there). She was a great communicator with any issues or just pictures of them playing.

About: I love animals of all kinds...cats, dogs, horses, lizards, reptiles. I grew up around large dog breeds and spent my childhood taking horseback riding lessons and playing in frog hollers. Now I have a cat of my own and would love to spend my summers off helping you with pet care, too. As a teacher, it is a joy to have summers off, and so much of my week has lots of leisurely free time. I'm available most weekdays until around 7pm. During the school year, I'd love to end my work day taking your furry friend out for a walk or stopping by to check in on them! Growing up around large dog breeds my whole life, I'm comfortable with dogs of all kinds. With a family member who works in vet medicine, I have some knowledge of pet care and pet health; including training, grooming, and dog-walking safety, and understanding pet behaviors. I also have previous experience pet sitting for friends and family, including varying feeding times and administering medications to pets. Pet safety has always been very important to me, so I always make sure my pets' vaccines are up to date, and I never let my cat out to roam outside. Dogs are always leashed, unless they are in their own private yard. I be sure to look out for other pets and animals while out to make sure everyone stays safe. I'm now so lucky to have a cat of my own who rules the house, loving all the attention in the world from her mom and dad. She loves treats and pets, and bird watching from the window. While my space is quite small for any boarding, I'd love to help you care for your furry friend by taking them on walks or helping out at home while you're away. Of course, with lots of treats to share!

Brit was a great dog sitter and accepted by Nelson & Chewy pretty quickly. She walked the dogs nightly and was timely with their care. She kept me updated multiple times daily and sent me pictures too. Which I greatly appreciated. Brit also washed the bedding and kept the house in order. Thanks for the great first experience.

Karlee took amazing overnight care of our pets (2 cats & 2 dogs). She was super communicative about our pets and I could tell she genuinely loved hanging out with them. We would without a doubt rebook with Karlee! It is such a relief finding someone so responsible, kind, and responsive!
