Kristen did great taking care of Pat. She gave him treats and cleaned his area if it was too dirty. She sent me frequent updates too. Would recommend her!

Brenda was amazing! My original dog sitter canceled at the very last minute and she came to my rescue. Communication was great, and gave lots of updates. She took good care of both my dog and rabbit. Will be using Brenda again next time I need a dog sitter!

Rachel is wonderful :) My two rescues can be quite reactive and skittish to just about any change in lifestyle. She's more than willing to jump right in & find what works for everyone. I will be using her as a regular sitter from here on out!

Stephanie does a great job with our cats! Even our shy cat seems to like her. She gives good updates that let us just enjoy our trip without worrying about them. I’ve booked with her twice and plan to rebook in the future.

About: Hi! My name is Jennifer. I am 33 years old . I majored in business. I am a fun, responsible, caring, loving person. I love animals more than anything! I will take care your fur baby, as if they were my own! I have been taking care of pets since 2016. I own two rescue pups! Best decision that my family and I ever made. ❤️ I have self trained my own dogs. I have also saved more than a dozen pets who roam the streets and have nowhere to go. Even the aggressive ones. Medically- I know animal CPR. I know how to give a pet medication. I have taken care of very elderly dogs, handicapped dogs. Deaf or blind. there are pets who are both deaf & blind and I am extra on top of them. I am used to very energetic dogs! So, that is not an issue. I have dealt with very shy & scares dogs as well. Who leaves my home with a brand new personality! I have a big & fenced backyard. It is locked on top and boarded on the bottom. No way in, no way out! If you currently crate training your pet, I can easily continue to crate train here. Lastly, if your pet is under my care they will be as safe as they can be! You will receive updates and photos throughout the day. I will follow the same schedule that they have at home, with me! :) I work from home 24/7. I am available all day to tend to your pet. I am available any time unless I am booked. :) I will always be with your pet at all times. They will never leave my side. Safety takes a HUGE ROLE in my services. My backyard is fully fenced in. Boarded from the bottom, locked on top. No way in, no way out. My backyard/home is a very safe environment for any pet that comes & goes.

Heeyoung was awesome. We had a wedding to go to and realized last minute that we needed someone to watch Ollie, our 4 month old Basenji. We contacted Heeyoung the day before, she responded so quickly and was able to come to our house, meet Ollie, go over all the instructions and we were all set. She came on the night of the wedding, texted us when she got to our house, she also texted us all the details of her visit, and then again when she left. Such a terrific experience and Heeyoung was so gentle and caring with Ollie. Will definitely will be using Heeyoung for future dog sitting and will be meeting with her over the summer to discuss boarding Ollie when we go on vacation. Thank you Heeyoung!!

About: I am a (pet) mom to our large cat, Baxter and larger lab mix, Jack! Jack is full of energy and love which allows me to tackle any mood your pup may be in! Baxter loves being the center of attention and he certainly gets all the love and play time that allows. I am more than happy to get to know your pets and care for them as if they were my own! I am currently a contract working allowing me to have flexibility in my schedule. I usually have availability before 9am, a couple hours for lunch and after 7pm! I have experience with dog crates, harnesses, different collars and gates if those are options for your pup. I have dealt with soft and hard food as well as different supplements.

About: We are a family of dog lovers! My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and though we don’t have pets currently, our love of dogs keeps us pet sitting and dog walking around our neighborhood. We have 3 young children who absolutely adore dogs, and love taking responsibility in taking care of them when we are pet sitting. We have a lot of snuggles to give your pups, and lots of walks to take them on, too! I am a stay at home mom so our schedule is pretty flexible! We are up early, and outside often. Any timing should be fine for us to work around. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby. We can play fetch with your pup, give them lots of snuggles, and plenty of walks!

About: I have daily experience caring for multiple pets, including dogs and a cat. I currently care for my Chihuahua and her puppies, as well as a young pitbull mix. Pet care is part of my daily routine, as I care for my own pets every day. I’m available for morning check-ins before work, evening visits after work, and full weekend care, including overnight stays since I’m off. I care for pets by following their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress free. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. In clients’ homes, I respect their space, follow all instructions carefully, and make sure pets feel safe and cared for at all times.

About: I have been pet sitting for seven years, and have experience with dogs of all breeds and ages. I am also a certified dog groomer and work in a vets office PT..! I have experience with special needs animals as well as administering meds/fluids/injections. I believe in treating all animals I care for as if they are my own! I have also owned cats, dogs, and even small animals in my life as well. When the weather is nice your pet will go on many outdoor adventures to new places such as the beach, play dates and even restaurants that are dog friendly! Please note overnights start at 3 pm and end at 10 am next day. There is an additional charge for any additional care needed that is not within this time frame. Holidays and holiday weekends also carry an additional fee. I can not accept dog aggressive dogs for daycare/boarding but can watch them in your home. My schedule is very flexible and I do my best to accommodate each pets specific needs! My care is not one size fits all like many others I always do my best to follow instructions as closely as possible and keep your pet on the same schedule, which provides for an easier adjustment for them.

Katelyn is one of the best pet sitters in Rover! She’s consistent and reliable. She gives me daily updates of my babies and pictures, their litterboxes get cleaned and food/water refilled. She goes above and beyond and takes out the litter/trash. I’m confident that my babies are cared for whenever I go on vacation. Highly recommended!

Elaina has been taking care of Max and Coco 4 days a week for several months now and they both just adore her! I have found Elaina to be loving and attentive with both, even getting Max to take his medicine even though he is a pretty stubborn little man! Elaina has been great about communicating with me after each visit and has been super flexible in terms of our schedule. Simply put, you will not find a better friend and care giver for your pet! Thanks Elaina!!
