Emily was wonderful. I old her the concerns I had with my fur babies before leaving and she made sure to focus on those things and was communicative with me the whole time. I will definitely be using Emily again in the future!!

My husband and I left for a 4 day trip and this is first time using Rover. I chose Bonnie from all the great reviews as well as her background. I was very nervous leaving our VERY attached doodle Ted. Bonnie was so attentive and took the BEST care of our boy! She consistently gave updates, pictures and Ted loved her! We will definitely be using in future!

Kayla did an amazing job accommodating all of our requests and made us feel very comfortable leaving our boys with her! She kept us updated and sent us all the pictures we asked for. The dogs were so comfortable I’m not even sure they realized we were gone. We will definitely be using her in the future!

Breanna was great for dog sitting! My dog can be nervous when I’m out of town but Breanna was patient with her. It was so nice having peace of mind while I was away.

Linda stepped in on very short notice after my original sitter canceled, and she was fantastic. She took great care of my fur babies, followed my instructions closely, and even left the house cleaner than I left it. When I got home, the dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well exercised. I’d absolutely trust Linda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.

About: I LOVE my doggos. I have had a dog in my life since I was 4, large and medium are typically my bread and butter. I know the little dogs can be timid but I can snuggle them until they tolerate me 😬. I am a millennial dog/cat mom, so you know I love scritches, belly rubs, snuggles, and giving treat-o’s. My dog doesn’t fetch but I’ll play with yours til the cows come home! I worked for a dog groomer as the bathing attendant for two summers as a kid, so if your babies need a quick bath while I’m there, depending on how they can handle it with a new person, I am available. I’m versed in giving pets medication, so no need to worry if your pupper needs a little something to help them stay healthy! I work from home full time currently, but if I need to leave during the day to go check on your fur baby/they’re on a bathroom/medication schedule, my boss is very lenient and lets me make up time. Walks would primarily only be available in the afternoons/evenings to avoid the heat around here. I am very organized and like to write down any rules/quirks/schedules that your pet needs to be on. I’m also not afraid to ask/answer questions, so if you’re open to conversations via the app, I’m your girl! There are pet walking areas within minutes of my home that I can take your pet to, if you feel comfortable with that, or I can walk them around the neighborhood, also.

Mary did an amazing job taking care of our senior dog, Chestnut! She followed all of our care instructions extremely well and was so attentive to his needs. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind, and even took him on a walk—something he absolutely loves. We also came home to a house that was cleaner than when we left it, which was such a nice surprise. Mary was on time, easy to communicate with, and truly went above and beyond. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be working with her again!

Leigha took wonderful care of our cat and our home! She sent daily videos, photos and texts of our fur baby. She came over for a meet and greet ahead of the stay, and asked lots of questions to ensure our cat would be happy and comfortable. She practiced putting him on a leash (not everyone walks their cat!) and took him out for a stroll. We really appreciated her attention to detail. She only sits for one family at a time so she could give her full attention to our cat. We could relax on vacation knowing she was spending the night and caring for our kitty. Thanks, Leigha!
