Kendra was awesome! My dog can definitely be high maintenance at times but Kendra took great care of her, kept me updated while I was away, and took my pup on lots of adventures!

Amanda was wonderful. It was my first time using Rover and she put my mind at ease. She came over, met the dogs before housesitting. The dogs looked really happy in the picture she sent - even my skeptical dog had her tongue hanging out. Already booked Amanda again!

We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter Jennifer! Additionally, this was our first experience with Rover. This was our first time leaving our 2-year-old dog Ada in someone else’s care, so we were naturally a little nervous—but Jennifer immediately put us at ease during our meet and greet visit.  From the start, communication was excellent. Jennifer was responsive, thoughtful, and took the time to understand our dog’s routine and personality. During the stay, we received an update and photo, which meant so much to us and reassured us that our pup was happy and well cared for. When we returned, Ada was relaxed (had fallen asleep) happy, and clearly well looked after. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. We will absolutely book with Jennifer again and highly recommend her to  anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!

Very happy that I found Dawn who was willing to house sit my three cats. The two females do not get along well, they pretty much tolerate each other. Then my male cat has thyroid issues and needs a topical med applied to his inner ear twice a day. Dawn was good about sitting with my cats at night and cuddling with them. I know my cats were pretty happy having the company.

About: The past six years I have had the opportunity to watch many different kinds of animals, everything from a chinchilla to large dog breeds. I have even watched rescue dogs a few times. This has allow me to better understand dogs behaviors. I have school Monday through Friday six to three in the afternoon. This leaves me with afternoons, nights and weekends completely free to take care of pets. I would keep the pets safe by following rules and preferences set by the owner, such as using gates and leashes, making sure hazardous items are out of reach, keeping in communication with the owners, and getting to know the pet and there behaviors along with there routines.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats, young and senior for 25+ years. Your pet will be family to me. And will be loved and cared for very well. In addition, I’m neat and clean. You’re home will also be well cared for. I’m presently not working. So, I will be with your pet 24/7. I like to snuggle with my pets and hope your pet will enjoy snuggling with me. I LOVE dogs and cats! Your pet will be treated as if my own. Walks and snuggles and snacks (if you permit) will be plentiful. I’m a low key, quiet person. So your pet does not have to be fearful of me.

Angela watched both of my dogs while I was on vacation at my campsite on literally the weekend of July 4, 2022. She is a very kind and gentle soul. She has so much knowledge and compassion working with animals. She took care of my babies with so much love. She very responsible and goes extra! Very trustworthy and kind person. Honestly it was the first time I met her but her personality and compassion shows She on time and goes beyond. You won’t be disappointed and your pets will love her Highly recommend
