“Megan did a nice job caring for my cat while I was out of town for the holiday. I appreciated the daily updates, pictures and videos. She followed nearly all of my overly picky instructions with feeding, cleanup, toys and safety. I would book again. She seemed to be kind and affectionate with my cat which is very important to me.”
“Kelly was awesome! I had last minute travel plans for the holidays and had never used Rover before, but I’m glad I did! She was prompt, communicative, and sent detailed updates/pictures so I could have peace of mind while away from my kitties. She even went above and beyond by offering to bring in my mail and cleaning up a mess one of my cats made. I would recommend her services to anyone!”
“First time using Danielle and Rover for my 4 cats. She came by 3 times while we were gone and one of my cats took to her immediately! She did what I wanted her to do, clean litter boxes, make sure they had dry, clean water and feed them a can of wet while she was there. I would use her again when we go out of town.”
“My pups enjoyed their visit from their new friend Melanie. While popping in to visit them, she took them outside for some sunshine and potty breaks. Thanks to Melanie I was able to travel for work without upsetting my babies routine. Thank you Melanie for taking great care of my babies!”
“Claire was amazing! Not only did my two usually shy cats absolutely love her, she did an amazing job keeping me up to date on everything going on, and I came back to a perfectly clean house. Will definitely be having her watch my girls again 🥰”
“First time using Rover, and I'm so glad a friend recommended it! Tricia has great communication and attention to detail. She asked questions and everything was great when I got back from my trip. My elderly cat was well cared for. I will definitely book Tricia again!”
“I’m so glad I boarded my two cats with Elizabeth! My drop off and pick up times we’re pretty late and she accommodated me perfectly. Everything was super convenient. She sent me updates on my babies while I was away which gave me peace of mind and overall her and Steve are just pleasant people. 10/10 stars! Would definitely board again.”
About: I am an avid animal lover! I have 2 dogs (1 being my personal service animal) and 2 cats! I have experience with many breeds of dogs, small and large. Through working with my dog trainer, I have experience with leash training, good walking behavior, and have much patience with animals! I am looking forward to the opportunity to get some exercise and spend time with your pet! I have a flexible schedule and can drop in to see your pet mornings and evenings! I am used to fitting animal care into my schedule and understand the importance of spending true quality time with your beloved pets. I am very detailed oriented and reliable. I would love to meet before care begins to learn your pets routine and what home life looks for them, what their favorite things to do are and their boundaries are in your home!
“This was my first time using a pet sitter. Haylee was friendly and reliable. She responded quickly to my messages and sent kitty pictures daily! I would highly recommend and would love to use her again!”
“This was our second time working with Anna and she is fantastic !! Our fur baby was well cared for and she communicated with us each day. Very pleased and highly recommended her!”
“Makai was AMAZING!! He kept us updated the whole time and sent us the cutest pictures of our two kittens. He was kind enough to bring in some packages that were delivered to our house while we were away. We will definitely book Makai again!!”
“Shannon did a great job with my Husky. She knows how to handle big dogs, is very communicative, and cares about doing a good job. I'll definitely ask for her again the next time I head out of town and can't take my dog with me. Highly recommend!”
“Valerie took care of my 3 cats while I was out of town. When I initially met her, she was great!! I knew that they’d be well taken care of. She was very informative and professional. And she also sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Valerie to anyone to take care of their fur babies!!! Awesome experience!!!😊😊😊”
About: Hi👋, My name is Shawn! Mom of four, with three kids still at home and lifelong dog lover. As a nurse and former dog breeder, I’ve cared for dogs from birth to their golden years. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or extra TLC for seniors, your pup will be treated like one of my own! I’m home throughout the day alone except for short school runs, occasional dinners out, church on Sunday, so your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, and love. We live on a minimal traffic dead end road for unlimited walks or playtime outside in the yard with family. We have an underground fence if your dog is used to or already trained with this at home! Otherwise they will just be included in our everyday busy life at home!
“Starr has a special way of making sure we are not worried one bit about our best furry friend when we travel. She has been a blessing!!! Highly recommend working with Starr!!”
