“Schirn was amazing. We needed her in short notice for our dog’s first ever pet sitter. She was great with him and kept me updated every step of the way. I was so grateful for her.”
2. Rachel M.
“We really appreciated Rachel taking care of our pup while we were traveling. He took to Rachel right way. She had no trouble with his habit of sleeping in bed with his dog sitters and his snoring. We got daily photos and updates on him and came home to a spotless house. Rachel was extra sweet in letting us know about when she had meetings during the week and would be away from him. We look forward to Rachel’s next stay with Oscar.”
3. Hannah P.
“Hannah is amazing. We got daily updates on Akiro. Hannah was quick to respond to messages and he really warmed up to her, not so easy with our little guy. We knew he was in good hands, and he was happy when we came home. Our place was left tidy and clean. We would recommend Hannah in a heart beat to take care of your fur baby.”

“Raja was excellent!!! It was clear at the meet and greet that he is an experienced dog handler, which is important for us as one of our dogs has some leash reactivity and impulse control issues see are working on. During our trip Raja kept us up to date daily with photos and videos and he left our home in immaculate shape, even taking his garbage out without being asked! Very glad to have connected with Raja and will definitely book again.”

“Very pleasant individual. I had a wonderful experience with Kimberly. She covered all my requests. I was able to communicate easily with her at all times which I appreciate very much being that I was far away from my baby. Kimberly made my trip much more enjoyable because I was able to trust her. Thanks again Kimberly for an amazing job! Thankyou Rover for having such a wonderful loving person on your team.”

About: I walk on weekdays and weekends so you can enjoy yours! I will make sure you have a guilt-free weekend while I keep the company of your fluffy friend. No more weekends worrying about watching on pet cams or worse leaving your pet alone. I’m here to help with dog sitting and drop-ins. Let’s make sure they have just as fun of a weekend as them. I hope to help ease your mind by knowing that your pet is getting the attention they deserve like daily exercise, playtime, and potty time they deserve. Whether you work from home, go on a work trip, vacation, or just need to get the house I can make sure that your pet and I bond and I gain your trust and theirs. One thing I understand more is the bond between you and your furry friend. Your home is where your pet feels safe and will rely on me to cater to the same needs you give them whether it’s the perfect ratio of wet and dry food or a special toy that must be kept close and being a pet in that special spot behind the ears. I will make sure to always give an up-to-date summary about feeding times, cute pictures of naps, playtime, and every bark or meow so you never miss out. You will never miss a cute moment or feel left out in their experience. It’s also up to you and your fluffy friend's decision on how we spend the day at home, or the park, or in pet-friendly spaces. I think the hardest thing is having fun and feeling guilty that they are just stuck at home and I am here to help with that. What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience and dedication to give your pet more personalized experience one on one. I will make sure I capture their day giving you an inclusive itinerary with pictures to keep from your furry friends’ journey. I work full-time just for you taking care of furry loved ones. It's not just a job for me because I get the best company a new fluffy friend. Your home is your safe place and your pets' safe place and should be treated with upmost respect, care, and consciousness of your fellow housemates. Having a stranger in your home can be unnerving which is why I recommend the following; safe access for your pet and me in and out of the apartment, fellow housemates or doorman or neighbors notified of my presence, a pet cam, a safety crate, or playpen. Also, I recommend a pet cam so you can check in with both of us. I also recommend a blanket or clothing with your scent to help emotionally comfort your pet.
12. Christopher M.
“Chris is the best! Hands down one of the BEST pet sitters for my babies. I am SUPER picky and don't usually book the same sitters unless I truly like them. Chris communicates very well and sees to my pets needs. Follows the itinerary very well, sends pictures, updates, and knows how to handle each one of them.”
13. Andrea C.
“Andrea is a fantastic sitter. She took such good care of Melvin while I was away. She sent lots of updates and photos. She also left my apartment perfectly clean. I highly recommend Andrea!”
14. Nateesha G.
“Nateesha was a fantastic dog sitter. She was my first dog sitter overall, and a great first experience booking her through the Rover app. On June 28, I woke up with immense anxiety about returning to work after my baby Londyn had spay surgery on June 26, and my friend in town was leaving. Meaning I had no one to look after my little girl. After reviewing her profile, I sent my request to Nateesha and received a prompt response with clear communication. Nateesha was on board within 30 minutes or less. She was extremely respectful of my home, followed the requested walk schedule, and even administered pain meds the second day. I also need to remember the continuous updates and photos I asked for. Nateesha helped me put my little girl in her surgery guard onesie before her departure. I 10/10 recommend her to care after your babies and look forward to booking her again. She's a 5-star sitter.”

17. Brittany L.
“Brittany took care of my two pets Gigi & Mew (dog/cat) while I was out on vacation. She was the best! From the moment she arrived, she took the time to plan out their needs and make sure they had their routine feeding schedules, walks, and play time. The pets were happy and relaxed when I came home after a week. She has also walked my dog Gigi on several occasions since and has always been prompt to arrive, give Gigi a good walk, and great about sending pictures with frequent updates. I would highly recommend her to anyone look for someone to watch their dog or cat. Will be sure to book with her again!”
