I will feed and water, potty them , play with them and walk them. I have lots of toys and games to play with your pet ! I will also pick up mail, paper, and water plants and yard !!

Linda is an extraordinary pet caregiver and from now on she is my "go to" caregiver for my pets. Linda stayed at my home to give care to my shih tzus while i was out of town. I have used Rover seven times in the past year and Linda care-giving service is many levels above the typical pet sitting service. Linda is the ultimate professional care-giver. Linda makes sure that she has all the information needed to handle any contingency by having me fill out forms for her that include authorizations for her to take my pets to my vet and special diet and med requirements, and more. You can feel confident she can manage care of your pets but also manage any unforeseen problems. Some of the highlights of the engagement were... > She stayed at my home to care for my pets > She sent pictures and narrative every day without prompting. > Linda gave meds three times per day and even contacted me when the refill meds that arrived were a different strength. She is Very alert! (i forgot to tell her of the change) > she took my dogs for a walk daily > One of my dogs is mostly blind and requires meds and special care, and she handled meds and special care beautifully. > upon return, the dishes were done, trash was taken out She even laundered towels and bedding and made the bed. > my dogs were very happy with her. I was delighted with her service. Thank you, Linda

Linda took great care of our dog and cat while we were on vacation. She met with us beforehand to ease our anxious dog, and communication was great throughout. Highly recommend and will definitely hire again.
