We were on vacation with our high-anxiety pup and Carissa was happy to help us out - she's a great communicator and we appreciate her willingness to come up to our Airbnb in the mountains!

She did a great job dog sitting for me. My pup and my home were both well taken care of!

We were staying in Virginia, away from our primary home in Georgia, and had a last minute need for someone to look in on our dogs (our loveable mixed breed plus our daughter’s mini doodle) since we were going to be gone for a whole day. Carissa was very nice and responsive. She came for a meet and greet that same day and did a drop in visit the following day. She texted updates and photos and the dogs loved her. We will definitely use her again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
