This was my first time working with Jen, and it went perfectly! Jen was communicative, sent tons of photos, learned the tricks to capture my scardey cats' love and trust within just a couple of days, and left me feeling like I had someone reliable and trustworthy entering my home and caring for my fur babies! Thank you so much, Jen!

Jen was so loved by my pups! She did a great job being a friendly stranger for my two dogs. She included numerous photos and told me how the drop in went during each visit. I plan on hiring her again when my other rovers are unavailable! Thank you so much!

Jen was wonderful as always. She truly came through in my time of need to care for my cat. She was extremely flexible and gracious when I added days at the last minute. Jen is reliable and great with communication. Don't hesitate, book her!

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.
