“It was great having Kelly take care of Felix. She was very communicative throughout the whole process as this was our first time using the Rover app. She took so many cute photos of Felix and you can tell Felix was smiling and having a good time with Kelly’s lovely family. So happy that we found Kelly to take care Felix when needed. Thank you, Kelly!”
2. Tommy & Julie F.
“Tommy and Julie were so good with Frank! They have a schedule for feeding and sent me updates on Frank throughout the day. Very organized and truly care about all the dogs! Frank loves going and playing and I feel at ease when he is there!”
3. Arlene M.
“Arlene took great care of my active puppy! She followed all my instructions and sent me frequent picture updates. She made sure he stayed entertained with lots of toys and games. Teddy was excited to visit with her again!”
4. Susan K.
“Susan responded promptly when I made my request to watch Copper. Her home has a large fenced backyard and Copper enjoyed being able to roam around during the day. Copper is generally timid around new people, but based on photos and the regular updates I received, Copper made himself right at home with Susan and her family. Susan shared lovely photos and updates throughout the day, always keeping me informed and put my mind at ease. This was Copper’s first home visit using Rover and it was a big success. Thank you!”

“Tom looked after my little pup snooper for a few hours and snooper was calm and happy when I picked him up. I appreciate how prepared they are.. it really conveys another level of care for our pups. We have been there a couple times when in town, and I appreciated their flexibility because I didn’t know how long I would be away. Definitely recommend. Thanks Tom (and debbie)”

About: My name is Anna, I’m a mom of two and lifelong animal lover. Have experience caring for dogs of all age, size, breed. All animals have very different personalities and needs. Experience with elderly, special needs, aggressive, anxious, and medication administration. I understand how crazy busy life can get and sometimes you need a little help at home, that’s where I come in! At work and thinking of your pup? I’ll check in and let you know how thier day is going, including a picture/video of how happy they are! Going on vacation? I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention they crave. Love and care is what I can provide, just let me know how I can help! I also offer home cleaning and laundry services. Basic cleaning at $0.15/sq ft, deep cleaning at an hourly rate based on exact need, and laundry at $0.50/lb, oversized items priced per item. All nice services to add on to drop in visits, that way you come back from vacation or a long day of work to a clean home and happy pet. Feel free to ask me questions and fill me in on how your family is in need of assistance! My schedule is mostly open. Just quick trips for school drop offs, which if your pup likes car rides they are welcome to come! I work from home. I respect privacy and preference. I understand how particular animals can be and will always follow the owners lead on what to do/not to do. I also never post anything on social media unless I get your approval ahead of time.

“Boomer loves staying here. The entire family and dogs are his second home.”
13. Ann S.
“Ann took care of our cat when we were out of town. She would spend time with him after she would feed him specialized food. Once he was done eating she would spend some time with him and give him the attention he was asking for. He warmed up to her quite quickly.”

“Indre is excellent with my chocolate lab. She walks big dogs with control and energy. Rosie really loves her. Your dogs will really love her”
15. Natalie F.
About: I grew up with 3 Siberian Huskies and currently own my own dog who is an Australian Shepherd. Ever since I was 8, I've been heavily involved in walking, training, and taking care of dogs for not only my family but neighbors and friends as well. I have owned many animals from rabbits to fish to dogs. And I have cared for nearly every domesticated animal in the book! I absolutely love all animals and care for each like they are my own child. Pet care is my number one priority. I like to make sure every animal I watch, including my own, gets let out every 4-8 hours and gets walked at least once a day for 30 minutes. I have a full time job but I work from home so I can always make sure animal care and safety is number one on my list. I always makes sure that every animal is treated as my own. I want the animal to feel as if their owner isn’t even away. I like to keep them to their normal schedule and spend as much time with them as possible to keep them comfortable. I like to keep them in their typical routine so there's no additional stress or anxiety added on to them while they stay with me!
16. Sara B.
“Sara is a wonderful pet parent and person! She is caring, responsible, energetic and fun. Sara will take wonderful care of any pet she is responsible for and love them like they are her own!”
17. Jessica & Aaron M.
“Jessica and Aaron have watched my dogs on countless occasions. At this point my dogs love her more than they love me! You will not find a bigger animal lover out there! Your pups will be in the best hands with these two taking care of them.”
18. Angela L.
“Angela is incredibly reliable, kind, and playful! I trust her completely with my dog, my house (and my kids!). She makes sure everyone around her has everything they need, always offering to help, and always there for those who need it. I highly recommend her to help keep your pooch safe, secure, and entertained!”
19. David & Bryan S.
“I’d trust David with my puppies any day. He’s a natural and cares for your pets as if they were his own. Your dogs are in great hands with him.”
20. Jeremy E.
“Jeremy and his wife were awesome hosts!! Our dogs did lots of playing, walking and enjoyed hanging out with their two sweet pups for the day. Jeremy sent lots of great pictures too. We will definitely work with them again, and recommend highly.”
