1. Vickie & Kylee H.
“Vickie & Kylee did a fantastic job with our two cats! Our travel plans changed a couple of times due to weather, and they were very understanding and flexible. They diligently sent photos and kept in touch with updates. We definitely plan to use them in the future!”
2. Michele S.
“Michele was available for my senior, special needs dog on short notice but she knew just what to do! I received pictures and updates and came home to a relaxed, comfortable pup.”
3. Jenny C.
“Jenny is so great with my pup! She has watched my dog, Wally, on several occasions and he loves getting to see her. Wally is a bigger lab mix and Jenny has never had any issues handling his size. She takes great care of him and I never worry about Wally when he’s with Jenny when I’m out of town. Bonus - she sends fun picture updates to keep me in the loop on how he’s doing! I’d definitely recommend Jenny to help with any Rover services you need.”

6. Sara L.

“I have witnessed Amy being a responsible, loving dog owner for decades, with multiple dogs. Her farm is an ideal location. I would not hesitate to ask Amy take care of my dog, any dog. She is also a great communicator.”
10. Stephanie Rose C.
About: I grew up around dogs, my family had 6 dogs (before I was born) & we still had 3 for a large chunk of my childhood (a black lab, English mastiff, & mauzer). I also had my own dog walking business for a little over four years (between the ages of 12 & 16) for people around my neighborhood & made dog treats. My daily/weekly schedules are pretty open. Church on Sunday mornings (& sometimes Thursday evenings which are optional). And at certain times of the year (mainly fall, winter, & spring) I'll have small groups with my church (but those normally fall around the evenings as well). The house I'm at doesn't allow dogs, unfortunately, but I can take them on a nice walk around the neighborhood & play with them in safe areas. I can come to the client's home to care for pets.
11. David E.
“David once told me that when he takes a dog for a walk he likes to let them smell as many things as they want because "they might be catching up with their best friend, and who am I to interrupt?". He is gentle and attentive but can hold good boundaries. My dog Zoe absolutely loves him, and I would trust David to take care of her anytime!”
12. Taylor D.
“Taylor Davies is a responsible, reliable worker and paid great attention to detail when watching over my home. I would definitely reach out and request her services again.”
13. Ashley C.
“Ashley was great! She gave us peace of mind that our cat was okay while we were gone on vacation. We were sent plenty of pictures as well as updates each drop-in for how the time was spent (cleaning litter, playtime, pets, etc). Would absolutely recommend Ashley and we will be using her services again in the future!”
14. Freddie B.
“Freddie is such a kind soul with a passion for caring for animals. Anytime somebody asks me if I have a know of a good dog walker or pet sitter, Freddie is always my go-to recommendation, and those pet parents have always been pleased. He has even come thru in a pinch for myself and for others when caretaking was needed with only short notice. I would highly recommend that you consider Freddie to care for your fur family.”
15. Kimberly R.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my kitties in Kimberly's care. She's very communicative and friendly, and I received prompt updates and photos twice a day. When I returned home, the cats and house were in great shape. I will definitely contact her again the next time we travel!”
16. Vivienne B.
“Vivienne is very good with dogs. She has 3 of her own and takes care of them everyday. She is a very caring and genuine person with great experience. She has watched my dogs before and I was very happy with the out come and my dogs absolutely love her!”
17. Shannon B.
“Shannon & I met on a sidewalk while walking our dogs. My schnauzer fell in love with her immediately. She has walked him for me & even kept him in her apartment, sometimes because I’m gone & sometimes just to play. She is a kind, responsible & energetic woman & I highly recommend her.”
18. Ashliegh H.
“Ashliegh has cared for all of the pets I have had since she was little and has always done an amazing job. She has taken care of my cats and dogs. She has played with them, feed them and they are always excited to see her when she walks in to come and visit with them, her attitude is very bright and cheerful when she comes to do it!”
19. Aaron M.
“Aaron takes great care of our 2 dogs, 1 cat and fish! He treats them like his own, playing with them, loving them and generally being a good pet parent when I can’t be.”

About: Ever since I was a teenager I've been taking care of neighbors pets and watching their houses while they were away. I have a dog of my own and I love animals of all types I currently have a full-time job,but I will provide great care to your pets before and after work and on my days off. I will make sure your pets are well cared for as often as possible. Stranger things in your home taking care of your house while you are away I would show the utmost respect for your space. I would recognize that if I was taking care of your pet but this is their home that they know it better than I do. I would understand that they would like to keep to their routines I would do my best to stay as close to the routine as possible.
