Joshua was great, responsible, proactive, attentive and respectful. We really appreciate him watching Riley on such short notice. Would love to have him watch Riley again in the future. Thank you!

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.
