“Sarah is by far the best Rover we had yet. Her communication and professionalism is unlike anything we’ve seen. She took great care of our dog and our house as well. She needs to be highly prioritized when searching for a Rover!”
“Jax is a wonderful dog sitter. Not only is she great with dogs and a joy to talk to, but she is also very prompt and flexible, a great communicator and remembers every request or instruction. I would highly recommend her to take care of any pets.”
“Casey has watched our two dogs twice now and has done a great job each time. She is communicative and caring and we can trust her completely to take great care of both our pups and our home”
“Allie had such a great week with Jessica! Was so nice to get updates and pictures while we were gone and came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Definitely recommend Jessica and will definitely be using her again!”
“Kept constant contact, sending photos and videos, updates on behaviors. It was my first time leaving Rebel but she made the transition smoother and easier for us both.”
“Keri took great care of Benny! She stayed overnight and left the house clean. Keri gave updates and pictures along the way. We’ll definitely request her care for our big pup again soon.”
“Melissa took care of our three babies. Our dog Pita is a bit high maintenance due to her allergies. Melissa was patient and provided excellent care. Dewey, our youngest cat is very shy. It usually takes a while for him to warm up to new people. He had no problem getting to know Melissa within minutes. She gave our other cat Boogie lots of love and attention as well. We definitely will ask Melissa to stay with Pita, Boogie and Dewey the next time we go away. We cannot thank her enough!”
“Amy was so good with our dog with separation anxiety. She went above and beyond by stopping by the day before to go over care information and to meet our pups. I think this had a big part in the night going well. She kept us updated throughout the night. 10/10 would book again!”
“Deja provided exceptional care for our two dogs over an eight-day period and also took great care of our home. She consistently kept us updated with photos and videos, ensuring we felt reassured that our dogs were in great hands. Upon our return, our home was spotless, reflecting her attention to detail and professionalism. We will be rebooking Deja for all our future travels.”
“Jennifer did so well with my dogs. She also made sure to give me daily updates and even sent me pictures. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“So incredibly lucky to have found Claire! Our elderly Dachshund and demanding Puggle were in wonderful hands and seemed very happy to be with her considering the cute photos that Claire sent to us! Came home to happy, safe dogs and a clean house! Great Rover experience. Will be booking Claire again, without a doubt.”
“1st time using Kaylie last weekend at the house - she was very thorough and took care of Sammi as per our directions. Will definitely utilize her again if we head out of town again. Very responsive and communicative.”
“Jesse did a great job taking care of my dog and cat while we were away. He spent a good amount of time with my animals throughout the day and made sure to send timely updates. My cat was experiencing a health issue and required extra care during our time away and Jesse was very attentive and understanding. We felt very safe leaving our animals in his care. My animals all really enjoyed their time with him.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs over the past few years, specifically my sister’s puppy and other neighbors’ older dogs during the day. I love playing with and walking dogs and am happy to follow specific requests about food, water, activities, etc. I just graduated from college in May, and I don’t start my job until September, so I am very flexible to watch your dog whenever you need! Everyone has different preferences for their dogs. I will make sure to understand how you specifically want your dog to be taken care of outside, inside, and at different times of day.

No problem for this experienced veterinary technician! Have an additional set of ease, for you know that your pet is with a sitter that has been trained in first aid, CPR, and even anesthesia! I know what to look for when your pet is staying outside of home. With time I have for my online college courses, I can have the best of both worlds. Sitting your pet while also furthering my education simultaneously. Your pet will truly enjoy my two sided fully fenced backyard! Lots of room to run around and chase a ball or chill on the patio if wanted. Fortunately, pets are allowed on my couch as well, allowing them to snuggle and have comfortablity in my home.
