About: Hi. I’m Melissa. I have been caring and loving pets since toddler age, and professionally for 4 years. I am flexible with days and times. I am a retired Registered Nurse with over 10 years of nursing experience and a clean license. If you need pet services, I am conscientious, loving and energetic. I can administer pet meds, vitamins, give baths. I am a natural with dogs and cats. I am even willing to care for bunnies. I love taking pictures and videos of dogs or cats fun time and daily routines, and will gladly keep you updated on how they are doing. I would love to take care of your dog/dogs and/or cats and am available 24/7 unless I’m already booked. Please provide a list of instructions (how many walks, food, mileage on walks). I am also available to take care of chickens and other small animals. I am unable to provide services for pit bulls. Thank you and have a lovely day!

Alena is a great person. She fed my outdoor cat everyday and check and changed the water. I never worried because I knew she would be there. She sent photos and did everything I asked. I highly recommend her.

Mary is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Deak, while we were away for a few days. She sent daily photos and an itemized list of his "business", and went above and beyond by keeping up with his daily walking routine and even spent time letting the school kids pet him which he loves! It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and has a superior work ethic. We returned to a happy, relaxed dog. We will be booking her for our next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter!

I can't say enough good things about Wendy & Desiree B. They take such great care of our cat! Very honest and dependable. Whenever I go out of town I never have to worry about the cat, because I know that she is in excellent hands!

Rosangely was amazing with my pets and I would absolutely book with her again! She was very attentive, caring, and detailed throughout the entire stay. She followed all of my instructions carefully and really went above and beyond to make sure my pets were comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I especially appreciated how detailed her Rover cards were because they gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I always felt updated and reassured that my pets were safe and in good hands. You can genuinely tell Rosangely truly cares about the animals she watches, and I’m so grateful for all the effort she put in! Will definitely be booking again, best rover ever!

As usual Abi did a fantastic job. She left us a feeding and medicine schedule showing what she did. Our dogs absolutely love her! The dogs were looking for her to walk in behind us as we arrived home from vacation during their normal afternoon visit.

When my wife & I leave the house we never anticipate the length of time we are gone. For this reason having someone like Crystal to call has been a blessing for us when realize we’ve been away for 3 or 4 hours. Crystal has always been available at a moments notice and we are greatly appreciative. Thank you Crystal!

Kimberly walked into a difficult first time situation to manage my brother's pet cat's improperly maintained litter box. My brother is in assisted living,(Florida) and does have cognitive issues. He, by mistake discarded the scooper. Kimberly was in her rights to quit right there. Instead she informed me of the problems and opted to try one more visit. I, (NJ), saw to it to provide items needed. Who could ask for a better second chance. Kimberly is most definitely a caring professional. Hopefully it goes better going forward. I am prepared to at some point look to get Nicholas (the cat), adopted, but for now I thank Kimberly for her great efforts.
