Rebekah watched our blind Pug, Rudy, for us overnight and did a wonderful job. She was very attentive to all of his needs and provided us with regular updates and photos while we were gone as well. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Rachel was amazing with our 2 mastiffs. One of our dogs can be apprehensive towards new people and they got along fantastic. When we returned from our week away our house looked better than when we left it and both dogs were happy and healthy. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.

Sidney is great! My dogs were very spoiled and well-taken care of. Pretty sure my house was cleaner than when I left! She is very communicative and I have already rebooked her.

Anna was great with our dog! Very reliable and communicative, and shared pictures / updates. We knew our dog was cared for and had fun, and Anna even gave her a new toy!! Anna is trustworthy and we’d book with her again.

Bethany was a great dog sitter. She took care of our two pups for a weekend and kept them fed, walked and happy. I really appreciated that she paid attention to the heat and made an effort to take them on early walks. I’ll would hire her again no question!

Kerri sat for us in October 2022 for 3 weeks. We were very happy with our first meeting and felt comfortable leaving our home and pets [2 big dogs and chooks] in her care. One of our dogs has separation anxiety so I was looking for a sitter that would be home most of the time and Kerri was. We came home to a spotlessly clean house, all plants watered and our dogs very happy and we could see they had been well looked after. Kerri built a close bond with them very quickly. Her communication was excellent, both email and phone, and we would have no hesitation in recommending her. Regards Trust and John

About: I have previously taken care of dogs on Rover for over a year before taking a break to focus on completing my degree and finding a career. During that time I also volunteered at my local shelter socializing with animals and helping the facility run smoothly. I currently have one cat and love spending time with other cats and dogs of my family and friends. When caring for animals, their safety and comfort are top priority to ensure the best experience on both sides. I look forward to meeting and developing a relationship with you and your pets! I currently work remote on a regular full time schedule and can provide care every 2-4 hours during the day and anytime during the weekends. I prioritize sticking with the typical schedule of your pet to make them as comfortable as possible. Cleanliness is also very important to me so I will make sure to clean up messes and food items promptly.

Jane did a great job watching our dogs. Our normally shy dog took to her right away which is always a great sign. She got them out for walks and made sure they were well cared for. Will hire her again in the future!

Madeline is amazing. Both of my dogs instantly liked her but most importantly my anxious one felt safe and loved with her. I felt confident the whole time we were gone that our babies were being spoiled. We received pictures and videos throughout the week and loved everyone one of them. 100% recommend Madeline!

Murphy and Lola both enjoyed their time with Kaylee. Lola is a new rescue, and she can be a handful, but Kaylee did a wonderful job taking care of her. She was very compassionate and understanding of Lola's situation. It was so nice to have Kaylee watch the dogs in our home. We will definitely use Kaylee again in the future!
