“Great experience! Good communication and timely. Received daily text with what the dogs were up to and some nice pictures as well. I felt like the directions I left were followed and the dogs were happy as I did not notice any behavior changes in them. Really pleased with how Melissa treated the dogs. Would definitely book again.”

“Kareesa was an absolute lifesaver! I had a big trip planned and my original plans for my pet/housesitting fell through and I needed to locate care a couple of days prior to my trip. I didn't think I'd find anyone last minute that I would feel comfortable with, and then I located Kareesa........ a God-send! I had never used Rover's services before, so I was also very nervous. From the moment we connected and spoke, I just knew she was going to be a wonderful caregiver of my two fur babies. Kareesa was extremely accommodating and very professional about my last minute needs for my week away. She addressed all of my questions and concerns and left me feeling really assured that all would work out well with someone new coming into my home and watching my little Yorkie and cat. During my time away, Kareesa was great about keeping me informed on a daily basis how things were going at home. In addition, she sent me photos of my fur babies and gave me detailed reports about them. She also went out of her way and handled some unexpected/forgotten items that I hadn't addressed before I had left on my trip. Basically, she handled everything and more! When I came back home, my house was spotless! Karessa had done dishes, folded laundry, purchased some food for my pup, and left the guest room clean and made up. I appreciated her support, enthusiasm, genuine care, and going that extra mile. Also, Karessa's knowledge about animals and their behaviors was really insightful to hear about. I would highly recommend Karessa, especially for those first-timers that may have a bit of hesitation in bringing someone new into their home. Hats off to Karessa from me and my fur babies!!!”

“Lilith took such great care of our senior pup who has recently developed some separation anxiety. She was punctual, very personable, and communicated with us the entire time, which eased our minds! Couldn’t recommend her more! 😊”

“Frank and Lucy enjoyed their time with Melissa. She was a wonderful in-home pet sitter and I will definitely hire her again in the future. Melissa was a very good communicator, sending updates and lots of fun pictures and videos of my pets.”
