“Hayley is a warm-hearted and loving person. She loves dogs and she likes doing outdoor activities with her golden retriever who is a very energetic girl.”
4. Susan J.
“It was our first time using Rover and Susan did not disappoint us! She went above and beyond to make us feel so comfortable from start to finish — from our meet n greet, to household sitting to taking our boy Cooper out while we had construction happening at our house. She checked in with us daily and sent THE best photos and video of Cooper to us. Knowing Cooper got to stay home while we were away really made him feel his best. If you live in the area, we HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Susan for any pet-related needs! We will certainly be reaching out to Susan again!”
5. Tatym D.
“Tatym has a natural connection with dogs. She handles our two pit bulls with affection, playfulness, responsibility and confidence. She has no issues harnessing, leashing and controlling both dogs during walks, which oftentimes end up being runs. She is respectful of neighbors by redirecting away from their lawns and picking up poop along the way. After outings with Tatym, my dogs come back with wagging tails and ready to take a nap. She is well worth every penny!”
6. Justice L.
“Justice has had a passion for animals since a little girl. Her work at Petsmart and now Banfield has really shaped how she sees veterinary medicine and caring for pets in general. Compassion and patience is needed in this field. She wants to be an advocate for pets and in turn help their owners as well.”

12. Sheree P.
About: I am a very reliable, compassionate, trustworthy, and attentive caretaker. I have been in the caretaking industry for over 14 years - from child care, pet sitting, house-sitting, care for the elderly, and housecleaning. I have a big heart and am a compassionate soul who works hard and puts care into everything I do. I am happy to keep your home and animals nurtured, safe, and cared for with intent. I am an animal lover and enjoy getting to spend time with dogs. I am also very active, so walking them multiple times a day is no problem at all :) Dogs are a joy to me, so I am excited to spend time with your cherished pets! I am a singer-songwriter, so I spend a lot of time at home writing and practicing music at home alone. This enables me to be there for the pets/be a home-care giver more frequently because of the amount of time I spend working remote :) I take care of all their needs - I will walk them daily, make sure they are fed and hydrated, and attend to their need for companionship as well.
13. Glenda T.
“Glenda has been taking care of dogs for a long time. She is trustworthy and reliable when needed. I would always recommend her from animals care if I can’t do it that day or week.”
14. Linda A.
“Linda is genuine, caring, responsible and honest. She watched our dogs on several occasions. It is so wonderful to know that you can go away and not worry about anything when it comes to your pet. She is the best!”
15. Matthew H.
“Matthew (Matty) and I grew up together in a family that LOVES animals! We grew up taking care of horses, chickens, dogs, cats, rabbits, and even a cow at one point. But by far our favorite animals to love and bring into our family are dogs. Having personal experiences with Matty and animals, I can say that he has an absolute knack with dogs. He loves them and they love him back. He treats animals with the same respect and love he would a human being, and sees the personality in each dog, as well. He'll wrestle with and throw tennis balls for the feisty ones, and cuddle the mellow mannered ones (he can even turn the feisty ones into cuddly mush piles, though! ha). Bottom line, Matthew is GREAT with dogs. Responsible, caring, and experienced. I would trust him to treat and take care of ANY dog just like his own! :) ”
