“Our cat Scout is usually nervous about meeting new people, and about being left alone. Arianna won him over quickly and helped him relax enough to eat while we were away. Great job!”

“Walter was so courteous and showed up on time every day and I could tell me animals were taken care of. He even offered more support for the animals for an extended period when my travel was impacted by the snow. He came 2x a day for my dogs and played with them and even stayed extra time s few times, and was able to give them medications and feed them, along with my cats as well. He was also very communicative, and followed instructions. I can tell my animals are happy. I will be using Walter again!”

About: Fostered 10 different dog breeds with Last Hope K9 whom were successfully adopted. Trained with several volunteers to learn how to care for the dogs in our house. We take the pups to dog parks, for walks, feed them, play with them. My dog Champ I adopted in 2021 and my sister’s dog Stanley who lives with us. He was one of my fosters and we just had to keep him in the family so my sister adopted him. 😁 My sister is also on Rover and we work together taking care of the pups at our house. My sister and I take care of dogs and have been for several years. We are very passionate for dogs and love caring for them and spending time with them. We have a yard with a fence to keep your dogs active and well cared for. We are dependable, trustworthy and we provide a safe environment for your pups.
About: I have had dogs since I was a child. Throughout the years I have owned Shepards, Rottweilers and most recently Boxers. They have been a part of our family since before I can remember but after losing our last Boxer “babies” and with the kids now in college, I have decided to pour my love for dogs into taking care of yours. It was always stressful leaving our dogs so let me take some of that stress away from you. I promise to stay in contact, send pictures and give them a home away from home. I work 3 minutes from home with a typical workday being 8-4 with an hour lunch. Although I will say this is pretty flexible. However, my husband works from home so there is always someone home. I am happy to come to your home to take your dog for a walk or to let him/her out in your yard. I can also feed him/her and give any needed medications. Or in my home, they will be treated like our own. We do allow pets on the furniture if that is what they are used to and accept dogs that are not crate trained.
“Dayanara did an excellent job taking care of Cora. She followed directions and sent me pictures as well. She delivers such a great service. The Meet and Greet was very professional and she even brought some treats and toys. I was very impressed. Daya cleaned up a bit as well and I came home to a well organized living room. Cora and I are very thankful. I’m definitely going to rebook with her. Thanks Daya!”

Faith has taken care of our cat Bella every time we travel, and we always appreciate her help! She is reliable, communicative, and gives us peace of mind while we are away. We are grateful to have someone we can trust to care for Bella and would happily book with her again!

Ericka was great: she won Percy over and maintained daily schedule and tasks and kept us regularly informed, going above and beyond when we forgot to replace the battery in the time-release feeder! First time with Rover and Ericka and it was such a relief to entrust our kitty to such good care, now that he's on twice a day thyroid pills. Thank you!

Ava was AMAZING with our puppy, Willow! She watched her 3-5 days a week for a couple of months, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was flexible with our schedule, always reliable, and her communication was excellent—we always felt at ease knowing Willow was in great hands. We would absolutely book with Ava again! Highly recommend her!
