Our pup was happy and healthy with Irena, our house was well taken care of and we felt great with her looking out for our boy.

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.
