Tawny was wonderful and stayed with our two labs for an entire day. She was on time when came to meet us the day before and was on time the day of sitting. She is very comfortable with pets and competent with a variety of veterinary related skills. We appreciated her sending us photos during the day.

Crystal. Wow. What can I say. Amazing person and cat/house sitter. We had an urgent immediate need for help and she came to our house within the hour to stay for 4 nights. The cats loved her, she sent photos and updates, and our house was tidier than how we left it. Perfection!

A truly remarkable experience. Our very first time leaving our puppy at home with anyone other than family. It was an immediate positive experience from the first time we met Christina .Our puppy, who is naturally apprehensive about anyone new, took to Christine naturally and immediately. While we were gone we received regular updates with photos and videos. It put us at ease knowing she was at our house. She also left the house extremely clean. I cannot wait to use her again. A+++++

Aimee is lovely and we are so relieved we found her to take care of our two very spoilt cats!!! It's stressful leaving your pets and house to someone you don't know well and she did an amazing job keeping us updated with photos and video and we felt super comfortable. Looking forward to welcoming her back again. Thanks again, Aimee! 🙏💛

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have cared for and nursed four French Bulldogs, which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to each dog's individual needs. Through that experience, I've become comfortable monitoring health concerns, maintaining routines, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I've also been around many different dog breeds throughout my life, so I'm confident handling a variety of temperaments and energy levels. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide owners with peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I've always been around dogs and enjoy spending time with them. While I am usually unavailable on Thursdays and Sundays, I do my best to be flexible and accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. As long as we stay in contact and communicate clearly, I can work with schedules to provide reliable care. I am committed to making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that pets are most comfortable when their routine stays consistent. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they're away. Having cared for and nursed four French Bulldogs and been around many different dog breeds, I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's individual needs and personality.

Jazmin is amazing, reliable and reasonable! She goes above and beyond to care for your pet and offers extra services for your pet! She stayed here with my Golden for 3 nights and kept us updated and sent pics. I did not doubt for a second that Elsa wasn’t in good hands! She is definitely my first choice for future needs! Thanks Jazmin!!!!

Don was great with both my dog, Neko, and my Cat, Teri. He sent videos regularly and keep me informed about Neko and especially how Teri were doing. Also, Don went out of his way to care for Teri, my cat. Teri has kidney disease and requires hydration with a saline solution every day. Don was wonderful with Teri by injecting the solution under his skin. This was accomplished by placing a needle under Teri's loose skin and slowly allowing the saline solution to flow under his skin. Don is very personable and I recommend him very highly for caring for your pet.

About: I’ve cared for all types of pets—cats, dogs, birds, fish, and even a chameleon!

I can provide morning care, and depending on your needs, afternoon, late-night, or overnight stays. I’m flexible and prioritize keeping pets comfortable and on their routine!

Katie was amazing. We had an erratic schedule where we needed her help on and off. That meant many start times and stop times through a short three day stay in Desert Hot Springs. Katie was always on time, totally prepared, and was able to handle our timid, fearful little dog masterfully. Clearly she has experience with animals. The bonus is her great personality and the fact she’s 100% reliable. Would (& likely WILL) hire her again any time we come this way. This was our first time using Rover and if the rest of the dog- sitters are as adept as Katie, we feel like we hit a gold-mine with this app.

About: Since I was younger, i’ve always been surrounded by all different kinds of cats, puppies, and other small creatures. Over time, animals have became a passion and motivation of mine as I have three cats and a mini dachshund on my own. I got my puppy when he was 2 months old and raised him so I am absolutely open to caring for puppies! When it comes to any other accommodations, feel free to ask any questions! I am currently working from home remotely and have extra time in the morning and evening, that i am trying to discover a new hobby for myself. i care for my dog all day and visit the dog park twice a day. I have a closed backyard with a fenced gate. When it comes to caring for a fur baby in the parents home, I am very patient and understanding when it comes to any boundaries and rules.
