Absolutely amazing! Katherine not only booked on short notice (I was freaking out because our normal walker had to cancel last minute!) She was personable, went above and beyond and most importantly to me, Cookie loved her! It’s always scary leaving our pets home for trips etc. Katherine will put you at ease. Thanks again!!!

Jessica is reliable and friendly! Our pup, Hank, is very excited for his walk days with her. We did a meet and greet and could tell Hank and Jessica would become fast friends. Jessica is a good communicator, sending walk updates and confirming weekly schedules. We highly recommend Jessica and appreciate the positive experience we’ve had with her!

Nancy is our first Rover pet care specialist and she did not disappoint. Outstanding communication, well organized, very personable. We are in the area for a few days as part of an Airstream caravan and had a long bus day into the city, leaving our Shiba alone for nearly 11 hours. Nancy proposed a meet and greet on short notice and also handled a reschedule (we decided to have her come by and walk Chewie twice versus once). Nancy understood the quirkiness of actually getting into our trailer as well as some of our hints to get Chewie to be interested in walking with her. Chewie, a guarded nine year old Shiba Inu who is basically our fourth child, took to Nancy like she was part of the family. We very much enjoyed the reports today of her interactions with Chewie as well the plethora of photos that captured Chewie better than we’ve been able to. I cannot say enough good things about Nancy. I wish her the best and anyone who is looking for someone through Rover to walk or check up on their pet can rest assured their pet or pets will be in the best of hands with Nancy.

About: I'm available Friday-Sunday and would be able to give your dog all the attention, I've done dog sitting and walking since I was 12 for my neighbors but would love to expand now. I can provide food and any specific requests and go out for walks. I am able to travel so we can go for long walks or to dog parks and I’m also available to just check up anytime! I especially love going on long walks so your little guy or girl will definitely have a great time! Depending on the days and times I can also watch dog sit from my house as long as time permits. Regardless I am always happy to take care of your pets whenever it’s needed! I currently work full-time but miss do sitting every day as it is my favorite type of work because it doesn’t even feel like it! Although I am unable to care for pets in my home, I treat your home with the up most respect and take care of your pet as if they were my own.

Vanessa takes my 1 year old puppy to her yard to exercise and play everyday! I work and don’t have a fenced in yard so I can’t explain how much of a help it is to me and my household. Very kind, generous, responsible and knows a lot about training/caring for dogs. Would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone.

I have used faiths services on and and off for a few months mostly when I just had to go on overnight work trips. I miss my dogs and faith always make sure to send me little picture updates of what they’re up to. She truly cares about my dog izzy and her happiness. Izzy is a pitbull and not always the easiest dog to handle but faith does amazing.

Ashley has completely outdone herself. Considering her amazing communication and care. Having someone who is obsessed with caring for cats and loving them so much. It makes sense why she would choose to take care of other cats as well! Her ability to understand what her cats wants and needs straight away is something we all need from a loving caregiver.

About: I've always loved taking care of dogs. Since I was 10 years old, I've been walking, feeding, bathing, and watching over dogs of all sizes. My neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to take care of their furry friends, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I know how to teach dogs basic manners and make sure they feel comfortable and safe with me while their owners are away. It brings me so much joy to spend time with these amazing animals and help them stay happy and healthy. I'm currently working in a clinic as a phlebotomist as I study for my sports medicine board certification exam. It's definitely a lot to juggle, but thankfully I have more free time than I know what to do with. My work schedule is pretty consistent, so you don't have to worry about any sudden changes in my routine. For me, my fur babies love nothing more than playing with their toys, going on new adventures, and playing catch in an open lot. Luckily, I live close enough to a variety of outdoor trails that my dogs always enjoy walking through and near a handful of parks allowing them to run free or play catch. When watching someone else's four-legged friend I do my best to stay within that animal's daily routine so that when their owners are to return neither party has any unexpected behavior. Before trying anything that may be new to the animals I always make sure to check with their owners so I know they are comfortable with my actions.

About: Natural born dog whisperer. Wanted a Pit bull ended up with a Chihuahua. I truly believe Cuco, my dog, is my animal soulmate. Cuco currently resides with human grandparents due to elderly age and makes occasional appearances at my home. I loved caring for him full time and now hope to have the opportunity to care for your pup part time. I am a patient walker — even if that means infinite stops to sniff stuff. Will always speak to them as I would to a human child. Plus, no human children in household only your pet child. Can help with potty training and social/public anxiety relief. Guaranteed good belly rubs, affection, and fresh bowl of water/food at all times under my care. I’d be thrilled to take very photogenic pictures of them and send them your way along with updates. Thank you for reading, look forward to being of help as needed. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions and/or concerns. I am a remote employee and am home 100% of the time with your pet. This summer I am taking a summer sabbatical and fully available. When I do return to work, pups are welcomed to take naps on designated desk area (yes even on top of my desk - right next to me for those that need human safety) to enjoy second floor window views (bark at delivery drivers) and naps. Sliding door for them to look outside while inside. Indoor cameras to keep an eye on pup if up to trouble from my office. Designated space in living room, kitchen, office and loft for them.
