Kristin was phenomenal. Cliff is often shy with new people, but he warmed to her immediately. I highly recommend her and will be rebooking with her in the future!!

Melissa is great! It’s my first time using Rover and I was a little apprehensive heading in to allow a stranger full access to my house and my dog when I’m not home. Melissa was the first and only person I contacted based on her positive reviews. She responded immediately and she immediately scheduled a meet-and-greet for me and her and my dog Lincoln. She was on time and took good notes. I booked her soon after that and so far I’ve used her twice for hour-long walks with Lincoln. Scheduling is easy and communication is quick and thorough with her. On both of her visits, she sent tons of pics and updates throughout each visit, and left my house secure upon leaving each time. Very happy with Melissa and would strongly recommend to anyone else so far. I’ve already booked her for two more visits this week.

My two pugs love Kelly and I love that I can fully trust her caregiving skills! She is thorough, friendly and great at communication, with many years of experience as a dog owner. It's a relief to know that, as my pugs get older, I can also rely on her to give them specific medications if needed. Highly recommended!

Victoria is a great dog sitter, actually dog friend. I've known her for years and she has taken care of my Alaska sled dog many times. My dog loves seeing Victoria because she associates Victoria with fun. Victoria takes good care with exercise and feeding as well as petting. I appreciated that she sent me pictures too with updates. She has a good touch with animals, really thinking about what makes them happy. Plus Victoria is a great housesitter! I give her the absolute highest recommendation.

Kathryn has been watching my dog since I got him 4 years ago. She is always the person I go to first to watch my dog. My dog Theo absolutely loves her. I say " pepe is coming over" and my dog waits by the door wagging his tail until she comes in. She is truly the most caring dog sitter that you will ever have. She is in tune with your pets needs and likes to keep them happy and entertained. I highly recommend Kathryn for your dog sitting needs. She is a true gem!

About: After a long hiatus from rover, I'm now ready to come back for drop-ins and dog walks! As a dog owner myself, I understand the needs of these four-legged creatures and will do everything I can to ensure your dog's safety and happiness. I work remotely full-time which gives me more freedom to spoil and tend to other dogs! I have senior blind chihuahua and an active 50-lb mutt rescue who I potty & crate trained, so I have experience with dogs of all needs, especially medication or high anxiety. I currently work remote full-time so I have availability throughout the entire week. With advanced notice, I can handle multiple drop-ins/walks on any given day. I am also a morning person so I am usually up around 6am. As mother of an escape-artist, I understand the importance of ensuring your dog's safety during walks or drop-ins. I try to keep a short leash to ensure no accidents or pulling. If your dog does not get along with other people/dogs, I maintain safe distances when out in the neighborhood to avoid any issues.

Elizabeth was an excellent dog sitter and I highly recommend her! She was caring, fun and attentive to my dogs needs. She dog sat for my 7 month old puppy, Daisy, and did an amazing job! They went on tons of hikes, played all day and took lots of naps. She was super communicative, responded promptly and sent me photos of their adventures! She really impressed me with her ability to care for such a young pup and was very responsible. She now walks Daisy for me if I need a little extra help and I will definitely ask her to dog sit again in the future. I highly recommend Elizabeth for any of your pet needs.

Bella came and kitty sat for our two, very different cats. Kelani, who started life as a feral kitten and is very shy of newcomers, welcomed Bella with open paws, sitting on her lap, and frequently coming up for loves and kind words. That Kelani trusted her from the start says a lot about Bella's calm and positive energy. Our boy cat, Roger, was equally enamored with Bella, who was willing to play with and entertain him to his kitty hearts content. I highly recommend Bella for any pet you may have, be it feline, canine, or other. She is calm and responsible and overall a lovely person.
