“Lena was awesome caring for our boys and house over a long weekend. She communicated frequently and sent pictures throughout her stay with our dogs. Feel confident booking Lena, she’s awesome!”
“Alli provided daily check-in's all week with photos and videos when she was house-sitting. One of the dogs had to be fed 3 pills a day along with a topical foam and all of this was done correctly! Small mishaps from the dogs were reported (pee accidents, destroying food containers, etc.) and everything was left clean and tidy before we got back home. I was so worried but consistently put at ease because she took care of the dogs. I am so thankful I found such a great sitter on Rover and highly recommend her.”
“Trustworthy and meticulous, Karen spent five days with my two big labs and gave them endless love and attention. Since we have no fence, she had to leash and walk the dogs a lot, and modify for the old limpy dog versus the young bouncy one. She left my house looking beautiful and even did the laundry! I want her back next time I'm going out of town.”
“Jess watched our dog and cat for the first time over the weekend. She let us know when she arrived and sent a photo. She was responsive to our texts so we felt comfortable being away.”
