This was my first time using rover. At first I was a little uneasy. But Lisa was great and took care of kitten and kitty and sent lots of pictures and update which helped me not to worry.

Zaria did great with my loud 2yo GSD and my little cavalier. It was a bit last minute but she met me prior to caring for them to get all of the instructions for them. I felt so comfortable while being away. She messaged me and sent great pics of my two while I was away. Happy I found a great sitter in the area for when I need it again!

About: I respect all animals, and have a particular love for cats and kittens. I’ve taken care of puppies, cats, and reptiles for over five years. I can be relied on to look after your pet… feed them, play with them, do a little pet yoga, and keep an eye on them for you. I’ll have plenty of time to be with your pet and give them one on one attention. I work part time and work from home. I have a dedicated space for my pet guests, giving them leisure of my living room area and there is a large gated space in the back of my residence if your pet needs outside time.

Kat was exceptional! She not only did what was needed but went above and beyond for our furbabies. Even after one specific hard day she still made a point to do her check in even though it wasn’t specifically needed. She communicated with me the whole time and sent lovely pictures. She even cleaned up a little on her last day as a special cherry on top. Will be using her services again!

Morgan was fantastic! We decided to try Rover for the first time after moving and were hesitant. Morgan stopped by before we left town to meet the animals and they loved her. We felt like we were leaving our dog and cat in good hands. She was prompt for the scheduled check in times and went above and beyond. Next time we go out of town we will definitely use Morgan again!

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up. From puppies, to full size, elderly and special needs pets. I’ve had a fun time training and playing with pups of all sizes and breeds. Taking care of them is one of my favorite hobbies. I’m always the go to for sitting when people need it. i’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups before or after work. I do work some weekends so I can do any time as long as I have notice beforehand so i can plan accordingly. i’m easily adaptable, the more information the better from feeding schedules to how long playtime should be and what you’d like to see while you’re away. I can provide toys if needed and treats as long as theyre safe for your babies.

About: I have had dogs of my own over the past 10 years, and have looked after several family and friend's dogs and cats many times. They have relied on me to walk, feed and house sit for their fur babies. I'm reliable and trustworthy. I have a very flexible schedule and can pop in for a quick visit or walk, or I can stay in your home for a longer term. Pets generally need a good amount of attention. I can bring calm comfort to an anxious or tired pet or go on a rigorous walk with a more rambunctious pet.

About: Hi guys! My name is Nicolle Bravo and I look forward to caring for your precious fur babies! I’ve spent my entire life around all kinds of animals, caring for them, administering medication such as insulin and shots, and even just providing some much needed love and affection. I’ve had experience with cats, dogs, pigs, bunnies, ferrets, birds, snakes, and lizards. No task is too much when it comes to our bundles of joy, so please feel free to contact me if you have any special requests as I know from personal experience how much stress can arise from trying to find someone who you can trust to take care of your babies beyond just dropping in to provide basic necessities. I hope to meet you and your lovely ball of fur soon! I currently work full time as a caregiver with a man with autism therefore I am only available before 10 or after 6 Tuesday through Friday! Mondays is before 10 and after 5! My weekend schedule varies . In home I care for pets just as if they were my own! I do stick to their feeding schedules / medication schedules to prevent any extra anxiety. They will definitely have plenty of play time as our pets are extremely friendly and love to have fun. We also have a fenced in yard in case you’re sweet pea is a little more on the adventurous side!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. From large breeds like husky to small dogs like Pekingese, each one has been a part of the family. I love spending time with my own dogs (2 female pits) and love making new friends. I do have a full time job but I’m also available to provide care for your pet during the week, at nights, and on the weekends. I have a fenced in back yard and both of my pets are dog friendly. I also have a crate for puppies in potty training. My dogs are walked daily and bathed often.

Macy B. is an absolute Godsend! We were nervous about leaving our dog, but Macy put our minds at ease immediately. They provided regular updates and photos, which we absolutely loved. It was so comforting to know our pet was in such kind, capable hands. When we returned, our dog was happy, relaxed and well cared for. We will definitely be booking with them again!

Kristina was amazing with my babies and it made me much more comfortable leaving for my trip knowing that they were in good hands. It’s important to me to find a sitter that loves my dogs as much as I do and I’m so glad we found Kristina and Justin. Thank you so much for everything, I will definitely be rebooking whenever I need/can!

When I met Emma for the first time, we hit it off and I knew she would be a good person to take care of my babies. Emma was Heaven sent. She sent me videos and pictures of my kitties daily and informed me of a concern SHE had about one of them. That showed me that she payed attention to them and she cared. Emma did a great job and I guarantee you, she will take care of your baby(ies) as well. Thanks Emma and Rover.
