Abby is the best! Our dog and cat love her. She is an excellent communicator before and throughout the time she spent at our house. Provided us photos every day of our animals and they looked so well cared for. Left our house in immaculate condition as always. Would give her 6 gold stars if we could. Thanks Abby!!!

Gabriella did a wonderful job with our Aussiedoodle, Scout. We felt very comfortable with her in our home. She sent updates and pictures daily. I appreciated her keeping me updated on how things were going. When she came back to our house a few days later, to drop off something, Scout was excited and happy to see her. I would highly recommend Gabriella to anyone needing pet care.

Kylie went above and beyond with our pets! We were so at ease with her taking care of our babies and she gave us regular updates of her giving our animals lots of love. During her stay she dealt with a worst case scenario in which one of our pets passed of natural causes. She dealt with the situation with grace, compassion, and professionalism. Even though the situation was unfortunate, I was so glad that Kylie was there with our babies because I know that she made each of them feel loved and cared for while we were gone. Anyone would be more than lucky to have their pets cared for by Kylie! ❤️

Lily was our first Rover experience and we couldn't be happier! We had her house sit with 3 dogs at our place, and despite the rain (and muddy back yard) I think our house was actually cleaner when we came home than when we left! Great communication throughout, and the dogs got plenty of walks. Will book again.

Jaimin did such a fantastic job watching my dog! My dog is nervous meeting new people and can be a lot to handle, but Jaimin followed all of my instructions perfectly and my dog now has a new friend! I’d highly recommend Jaimin!

Angela is very kind and compassionate, she did a great job caring for our fur babies. She transported two of them back and forth to daycare while we were gone so they could maintain their regular routine and she made sure everyone got their medications as scheduled. Highly recommend her, will definitely use her again.

We could not have been happier with the care that Maggie gave our fur babies! We had to go out of town for the weekend and wanted someone to stay at our home to watch our two cats and two dogs. We were a little nervous, as we have some higher-maintenance pups. She sent pictures, kept us updated throughout the weekend, and went above and beyond to keep our pets healthy and happy when we weren’t able to ourselves! Overall, we felt so good leaving our babies and home in her care, and we absolutely recommend her services to anyone looking!

Roxanne went above and beyond watching my (super clingy) cat. That and the frequent updates/photos gave me peace of mind while I was away. I got home and could tell he’d gotten lots of love. :)

Adrianna did a great job sitting for our boys. She sent pictures and I could see how happy they were. Great communication.. The house was perfectly clean when we arrived home and the boys were obviously glad to see us but not as crazy as when we have left them other places.

Other then a vet I have never met someone who knows so much about dogs. I've never seen Brianna not go out of her way to help a stray dog, from taking the dog to a shelter to keep it out of the harsh winter conditions to finding a dog and posting pics of it all over social media. If your dog is with her, your dog is in the hands of someone who loves them and will do what ever she can to take care of them

So glad we found Ste! We are traveling and wanted to go to a baseball game in Kansas City. Ste stayed in touch via text between the time we booked him and the game a few days later, always responding quickly when we kept him updated on our plans. Meeting him was a real pleasure. He immediately got down to our dog's level and greeted her, and she obviously felt very comfortable with him while we were gone judging from the photo he sent of her napping soundly. I only wish we actually lived here so we could book him again.

About: I have lived my whole life with pets from cats and dogs to birds and reptiles. My services revolve around your pets safety and happiness. I have an active lifestyle consisting mainly of trail hikes with my dog. I work from home full time as a digital marketer, so I have plenty of time to care for my pets and offer services to care for yours. I mainly started using Rover because I have a love and passion for animals. I am grateful to be given the opportunity to work with Rover and help provide care to any and all pets in my free time. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a park and school in walking distance. I often start my day by caring for my fur babies and providing the mental and physical enrichment they need. I have taken care of newborn puppies and kittens and senior animals as well.
