“Laura was nothing short of phenomenal taking care of our two golden doodles while we were away over the holidays. She was extremely communicative, and stayed in touch multiple times daily on how our pups were doing. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they could stay in the comfort of our home - helping to keep them in their regular routine. Cannot recommend her enough and definitely would utilize her in the future!!”
“Everything went well. My pups loved her and she left my house clean and even took the garbage out. I've already booked her for longer stay with my fur babies.”
“Kris was great with our fur babies!! I would definitely recommend. She sent us pictures everyday and let us know how they were doing. She’s easy to work with and kept our house in order too. Thank you Kris!!!”
“Amanda was so great with my pets! She stayed at our house and it was spotless upon return. Daily updates and pictures of my babies were sent. Highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: Hi, I've been raising dogs my whole life, from the first hello to the last goodbye. Dogs have a special place in my heart and I wish my best friend was still with me today. I've had years experiences on training puppies and love to watch dogs grow. Hi, I'm nice to meet you i work. Monday- Friday, and available nights and weekends. I would love to help anyone that may need great care for your animals. I am available weekends for over nights and available mon-fri for check in visits. Let me help in anyway i can. I'm here for you. I currently only have a cat at the moment, and he is such a hoot. I play fetch with him everyday, lol yes you got that right. My cat plays fetch. I've raised many animals and they were very well trained and Behaved. I care soooooooo much for any fur baby. I can assure you I take care of animals very well.
“I had to book with Mallory last minute and I was a first time Rover user. She responded promptly, assisted me in setting up our reservations, and made the process so easy! She made sure to know everything about my dog and how to make her comfortable in our home while I was away for the weekend. She was a great care taker of my girl and amazing guest in my home. I never once was worried while away.”
“Great communication and came through for us!”
“Eliza was wonderful. She came to the meet and greet already knowing about my dogs. She handled their varied personalities wonderfully. I'll be getting ahold of her again in the future”
“Thanks so much for taking good care of our babies!! Appreciate it so much:)”
“Alix was great! She worked around our schedule and made our weekend trip headache free. She sent lots of pictures and videos. She even managed to get our cat to trust her, which is pretty rare for strangers. I will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I love animals especially dogs. I like to take care of them and make them feel loved. I can wash them, feed them, play with them, and be someone the family and the dog can rely on. I'm always open to walking dogs and it will also help me get into shape as well. This won't only help the dogs but it will help me cope with mental issues I've been dealt with. Which to me would be amazing. I enjoy being around dogs and taking care of them. I have some experience taking care of my brothers dogs(feeding them, taking them out to go to the bathroom, and dog walking) and have taken care of cats(cleaned out the box, fed them, and played with them). I am pretty flexible when it comes to taking care of pets. I have my own dog that I take care of on a daily basis. I would let the client tell me what to do with the dog. I would be sensitive regarding the needs of each animal and make sure to take care of it the best of my ability.
“Excellent! Reliable, caring, extremely helpful when my flight was delayed to make sure Daisy was cared for properly, and even left a really adorable little gift for Daisy and me upon departure! ❤️”
“Wendee did a great job with our 3 dogs & a cat over Christmas. She had to get them through severe weather for 2 days & they were as happy as could be when we returned. She communicated well with me & we hope to use her again.”
About: Hey pet parents! What sets me apart from other sitters is how I'm all about creating a bond with your pets and making sure we're all on the same page. When you can't be with them, I'm here to fill in with all the belly rubs and snuggles they crave. I'll fill their needs and keep you updated with the cutest pics, so you never miss a moment. Your pets are family, and that's exactly how I'll treat them, but I've also got some special skills up my sleeve. I am super active, because I am currently playing sports in college and can go on runs or walks with your energetic pups when you can’t. I'm your go-to for top-notch pet care. Your fur babies will be in the best hands, getting all the love and personalized attention they deserve! 🐾🤗 I've got a big heart for animals and I'm super into keeping you in the loop, so you'll always feel connected and at ease. I am a responsible college student-athlete and I have a lot more free time around my training so I am able to spend quality time taking care of your pet or pets. When caring for pets, I apply the same loving attention to detail that I give to my own cat in the comfort of my home. My approach is centered on creating a trusting environment by consistently providing personalized updates, ensuring your pet's safety, and accommodating any special requests or needs your pet may have.
About: I will play talk and hold the animal or if the pet prefers I’ll give them space time and whatever specific needs the pet needs while I’m doing my routine i’ll do the pets also. so if I eat, they eat, they need litter or playtime. I do that however, much I feel is needed for the pet. I will be outside most of the time whether it’s walks or playtimeand or indoors whatever the pet prefers we will play eat have water and or just lay in the sun
“Karriann did an amazing job watching my dogs and puppies! She definitely had a lot on her plate with everyone, but handled it wonderfully. I would absolutely hire her again and recommend her.”
“Ann took care of our dogs over the weekend. We had great communication from her, she was timely and my house looked the way it did when we left. She came and meet the dogs before hand and they loved her! Thank you!!!”
“Amazing communication! Very attentive and could not say enough nice things about krysteena. Updates and pictures throughout and Bronco was so happy! Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different pets of all shapes, sizes, ages and temperaments. As a pet mom myself I understand the importance and worry of leaving my fur baby behind while I’m away. I will always send extra pictures and take extra precautions and time to make sure your fur babies feel safe and loved while you’re away! I work at the airport part time, but the hours differ. I am available most of the time, and if I’m at work I can still stop by after work or on my breaks or stay overnight to take care of the pet(s). Same goes if they’re boarding at my house, they will be well taken care of. I care for my own cat as if she is my child. All the pets I watch (including my own) get fed right on time on schedule, I give them extra attention and pets, if they like toys I make sure to spend a while playing with them to make sure they don’t get bored and they stay happy and entertained!
