“I highly recommend Jasmine as a dog care giver with Rover. She has been taking care of my Goldendoodle, Lucy, for the last 2 months, and I am so happy with the way she provides love, discipline (when needed), and active attention. Jasmine and her family are great at recognizing Lucy’s needs and putting them first. She regularly walks her, feeds her on a set schedule, and even sleeps with her. I am very confident in Jasmine, and I know any dog (and dog parent) would be lucky to have her!”

“I had to leave for a business trip and needed someone I could trust to care for my dog, who has diabetes. Steven was amazing! Not only did he give my dog his insulin shots on schedule, but he also took him for daily walks and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. Steven is super motivated, responsible, and really cares about the pets he looks after. I could relax and focus on my work knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend him!
