“Jose did an amazing job with Marley! I was able to leave an entire week without having to worry once. Was always on time and walked my dog to the park every time. Marley loved Jose, so much so Marley was playing fetch with sticks which I’ve never seen him do! Jose also took amazing pictures at every check in”
“This was my 2nd time using Rover and requesting Glenmary. She is amazing!! The photos and notes she posted were so complete and helpful that I really felt comfortable with my decision to use Rover, and especially picking Glenmary and her partner!! My fur baby loves her and comes home happy and relaxed. She is the best and helped me out with zero notice both times! (I know, I'm a headache!! 🤕) Thank you so much Glenmary!!!”
“Clyanna did a great job with Chip and it was clear that Chip felt comfortable with her! She even managed to keep Chip calm and from pulling on a walk, which is no small feat given he loves going on walks and has a lot of energy!”
“Miranda is amazing! She always takes excellent care of our cat and home. Our cat looks forward to her visits and we can go away with peace of mind. Would definitely recommend her to friends and family.”
“Natasha is always very great with my pup! My pup was being difficult about putting the harness on and she stayed a little extra to ensure she was taken care of. Thank you Natasha!”
“Barbara was attentive to my dog’s needs, patient with his anxiety, and definitely caring. Doors were left locked and instructions were followed, which is highly appreciated.”
About: I’ve owned dogs all of my life and have worked with many different breeds of different ages with different needs. Open to different schedules and care needs. I want to put your mind at ease knowing your pets are safe and cared for with me! I work a full-time job from 7:30-3:30. I’m able to do drop ins before and after work. I can provide walks and play time, or if preferred, some relaxed company. I provide a safe and fun environment to settle any fears you or your dog might have with pet-sitters. I have a very calm and friendly demeanor that puts people/pets at ease.
“Amanda is the best! She took such good care of my kitty Cloud. If I ever need a sitter again I will definitely be going to her. I was iffy on trusting this app with my cat because of my other friend’s previous experiences. However, Amanda is just a top tier sitter.”
About: I have had dogs since the day I was born and wouldn't want it any other way! Family and friends have relied on me to care for their pets for years, and they have been confident in my abilities as a former employee at a 24-hour emergency animal hospital. I'm experienced working with a variety of breeds and temperaments, including reactive dogs with behavioral challenges. I am well versed in force-free positive reinforcement methods. Professionally I work as an epidemiologist, so you can also be sure I am taking all health and safety precautions! I am also available most afternoons/evenings and on weekends. I can drop in for walks and to spend time with pups in your home during these times too! I do everything I can to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free! Being the owner of a reactive dog I understand how important it is to mantain a schedule, enforce training, and take safety precautions. I have a firm understanding of animal body language and knowledge of how to behave around dogs of all temperaments!
“Katrina was great, sent awesome pictures of the kitties. Was very communicative. Will definitely book her for our next trip.”
“Laney did a fantastic job looking after our cats and crested gecko while we were away! We really appreciate not having to worry while we are on a long trip, since we know they are in good hands. Thanks Laney!”
About: My sister is a licensed Vet Tech and has worked in medical care for animals for a couple years. She has taught me all the basic animal and medical care in case anything might happen. I have owed my own German Shepherd for 3 years now and I have pervious experience taking care of my sisters very anxious dog and our senior family dog. I also help take care of my roommates Golden Retriever during the week while she is at work! I am active so I can go on long walks with the pups and play with them for hours so you come home to a tired pup. I work from home most of the week so I am able to stay during the week and take care of your animals! I am very flexible and would love to help out as much as I can. Knowing how to set your dog up for success is VERY important to me. Every dog has their quirks and bad habits but it is important to recognize them and how you can avoid them to set them up to be the best pup they can be! Some example can include making sure the trash is out of reach, keeping dangerous objects out of reach, keeping them from things that could scare them
