Amy was the best sitter we could imagine to take care of our home and 2 fur babies! It was our first time using rover and she made us feel so comfortable with constant communication, pictures and updates throughout her stay. She treated our pets and our house like her own and we will 100% book her to watch them for any future travel we have!

About: I grew up in horse country and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Being around farms from a young age taught me responsibility, attentiveness, and a deep respect for animal care. I’ve been entrusted by friends, family, and neighbors to look after animals of all kinds for as long as I can remember. I especially love dogs and cats and have years of experience caring for them. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around walks, visits, and quality time, making sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and medications while giving plenty of attention and affection. I’m also very clean, respectful, and considerate of your space.

Meredith was great! She met them a couple of times before we left, which really helped our older dog with anxiety. She connected so well with the pups. She kept us informed with pictures and videos, so we knew our pups were in good hands. She treated our home with care, too, which was appreciated. We would happily book with Meredith again!

De'Erricka was wonderful to our dog, Eleanor. She took care of her and our home better than we hoped. It's great to know someone in the area who is available and interested in taking care of local pets.

About: Dealing with high energy dogs all my life I am sure there is nothing I can’t handle with a bit of patience and love ! With the great privilege of being a home maker, I have time to spare to dedicate time to my passion of animals. With very open availability I am willing to help a furry friend out anytime! I have a fenced in back yard with great space for all the fur babies who come under my wing. With the company of my own two pets

Danielle did a great job with our anxious/reactive dog who was at first very standoffish and difficult to win over. After a lot of persistence on Danielle's part, our dog finally warmed up to her. Danielle stayed in our home overnight and left everything immaculate. Will be looking forward to having her watch Jasmine again soon!

Elena is very gentle and calm with our elderly dog with severe separation anxiety. Yet, our younger, playful, enthusiastic dog is very happy with her, as well. She is knowledgeable about dogs and their needs, and prompt and responsible. Thank you to Elena for taking such good care of our pups! We will definitely hire her again!

Claire did a great job caring for our 9-month-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy while we were out of town for five days. This was our first time leaving him, and she made the experience stress-free with her excellent communication. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, our pup was happy and well cared for, and the house was spotless. I would absolutely recommend Claire to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Lily is great. She stayed with our two small dogs, Rambi and Winston, for a week. Both dogs seem to really like her. Lily was diligent in providing us with daily updates; she also helped us out greatly by performing the ancillary task of shipping some packages for us while we were traveling. Thanks, Lily! I definitely recommend Lily. We're looking forward to having her back for a two-week stay later this year.

Oh my goodness, I'm not sure even where to begin with this five star review. Denise took such good care of my two pups while I was away visiting family. I returned to happy, healthy, and very pleased puppies, the best I could ask for. And she took good care of my home so that everything was perfect when I returned late evening. I definitely want her to return!!

Savanna responded promptly to my LAST MINUTE REQUEST for 9 hours of help with 2, maybe 3 dogs. She sent photos and reports through the afternoon and assured me she would still be there, even though I was going to be 30 minutes late getting home. My dogs, fostered for a Border Collie rescue, wanted to follow her out the door. I hope to continue asking for Savanna's help for future dog sitting needs.

Avery stayed with my pups while I was out of town. They can be a handful, and Avery handles them with ease! I’ve never come home to such calm dogs after a weekend away. Highly recommend!

Trudy was the best! She loved on my dog like she was her own. I got constant communication thru texts, pics and videos. My dog seemed very happy and it enabled me to enjoy my vacation worry free. I will not hesitate to call on her again. She left my house the way I left it. That was an added plus! Love Trudy!
