Jackson was great! He showed up on time each day for a week, which was truly appreciated as I booked last minute. He updated me with a few pics and additional detail beyond the basic report card. For example, he checked in via message on day 1 to confirm my dog's mood and poop quality were as expected. My little buddy has some separation anxiety that sometimes causes runny stools and submissive posture. By day 2 my dog was already adjusted and he looked comfortable in the rest of the photos that Jackson sent throughout the week. Recommend 💯!

Jennifer took excellent care of my pup, Luchito. She dropped in and took him out, played and fed him. It put me at ease knowing he was in good hands. She was great at communicating updates. Would highly recommend and will hire again in the future.

Sarah did an awesome job with our young cat Prismo. Communicative and attentive. She sent really cute and varied photos of him in the report card. He seemed happy in the photos :). Felt good to know Sarah was taking care of our boy when we were away. Thank you Sarah!

Brian was a great sitter for my 2 cats. I was out of town during the big snow in February and Brian made his way to my house each day through the bad roads and bitter cold and even picked up some wet food for the girls as my homecoming was delayed during storm. I would HIGHLY recommend and trust Brian with no reservation and my girls will miss him. Thanks Brian!!!!

Tracy must have some cat whisperer magic because my orange boy, who hides when he hears a voice on the phone, let her pet him. She was great with daily comments and adjusted great when I asked her to keep me updated on any puke issues as my orange boy has IBD. Cheddar loves sitting in an open window and knowing he got to do that while i was gone is great. She listened to what i needed and what Cheddar needed; followed through on both As far as Cheddar knows, im never leaving again, but next time I'm out of town for more than a few days, I'll be asking Tracy to check in on him.

About: I have been a dog walker for a bit now and I love animals! I am able to walk any size dog, and I am capable of walking multiple pups at once. I can accommodate for dogs of all ages too, new puppies or senior dogs. I have also had dogs in my family for my entire life. I’m a recent college graduate, trying to earn some extra money. I am a very positive and energetic person! I love to be outdoors and exercise lots. Rover seems like an awesome app to meet some amazing, lovable pups! I work full time in the Southern Metro area. I am fully available on the weekends! I am completely free on Saturday and Sundays :). I am happy to go for long early walks in the morning or later at night. The pet and their needs should always come first. I love a cuddly dog that can curl up on the couch with me or I can go on a hefty walk around some of the lakes!

Tanya is a great pet sitter! I was foolish and put the key under the mat and it snowed and froze to the ground! She spent like 20 minutes getting it out to feed my kitties. She leaves the house cleaner than when she arrived and my cats opened up to her right away. Tanya is the best!

Amy checked on our kitties routinely while we were out of town for three weeks. We arrived home to find that they had been well-cared for: plenty of food and water, and clean litter-boxes. We would definitely engage her again in the future, and recommend her to others.

Lulu was perfectly cared for and we felt so comfortable knowing that Jamie was checking in on her everyday. Will 100% use Rover and Jamie again.
