Maggie is highly responsive and responsible. She loves my dogs and they love her. We had a miscommunication because I forgot to tell her she could leave at 10 p.m., and she stayed until 11 just to make sure the dogs were OK. Highly recommend.. Thanks so much for your help!

We had a wonderful experience with Philip and Lily! They took the time to come meet our dogs before the booking, which really helped our peace of mind—especially with our very nervous, slow to warm up dog. Their patience and care truly stood out. We received thoughtful updates while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We’re so grateful to have found reliable and caring pet care, and now we finally feel comfortable traveling again!

Emmie, my corgi girl, immediately took to Linda rolling over for belly rubs. I received updates and cute photos throughout the stay so I never worried. Came home to very happy pets! Booking my next weekend now.

Ashton was great with our two huskies for a week-long stay. She kept us updated with pictures and the pups clearly loved their walks and cuddles. She was in regular communication and very responsive. We hope she will be available in the future for another stay!

Anna was absolutely wonderful! She was very friendly and highly skilled with caring for dogs, Anna stayed at my house while I was away, and she bonded with my dog instantly. I was completely impressed with her ability to interact and connect with my dog. Anna was really good with following through with my requests regarding my dogs diet, and she followed up with me right away with any concerns. Anna is very reliable, trustworthy and honest, I highly recommend Anna to care for anyone’s pets. And FYI, she also willingly and lovingly cared for and fed my bird. Leaving my dog is hard for me, my heart aches to leave him behind, I never imagined I would find someone who could love my dog much ad I do, but Anna 100% exceeded my expectations.

Victoria is a repeat sitter for us this time however she watched all three of our dogs. They are finicky when interacting with each other and she did everything to make it a smooth weekend for them. I appreciate all the updates, care and compassion she gives the dogs.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

This was our first time with Rover, and I could not have asked for a better sitter for our dogs and house. Rochelle made a real and true bond with our two dogs. She made a personal connection with our pups. I want to emphasize that she really cared. Rochelle sent us daily pictures and videos that brought so many smiles to our faces while we were away. Her care took away our separation anxieties. This allowed to relax and enjoy our trip rather worry about how things were at home. If I could give Rochelle more than 5 stars, I would do that.

Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!

Jenny was wonderful!!! My two pups normally take a bit to warmup to new people but at the meet and greet they both clearly showed a liking to her. Jenny watched my pups in my home and messaged me several times a day and sent pics to let me know how things were going. This was very comforting for someone like me, with having anxiety with leaving them. My house was as clean as I left it, and I was very grateful that she brought in my packages as they were delivered. I would recommend Jenny, we will definitely be asking her to watch our pups again!!! Thank you so much Jenny, for easing my mind with my sweet babies and taking such great care of them😊!!!

Maggie was wonderful house and dog sitting for Ginger & Luna we had someone elsed booked, but at the last minute they canceled so i went back on Rover to check to see if i would find someone else at the last minute and Maggie came upon us. I reach out to see if Maggie was even available we needed someone immediately while we were going on vacation. Maggie accepted she made sure our minds were at ease leaving Ginger & Luna at home. Maggie made sure she sent pictures daily we would definitely be booking Maggie again when we need someone to house & doggie sit. Thanks again Maggie excellent job you did.
