Pet care experience

I didn’t know I loved dogs until I got one. Birdie is 3 and she loves to play. She’s very social and well behaved. We are waiting to play with your pup! 🐶

I was in a bind after a referred dog sitter cancelled last minute, and I had to catch a flight out of town. Melissa was more than willing to help me out and was very communicative once I booked. Archie is great at sniffing out good people and I could tell he loved Melissa and Birdie at drop off. Melissa provided updates, including pictures for my reassurance. Her home is also lovely and a pet-friendly environment; not to mention, very convenient to my home. Melissa was right, Birdie will give you a kiss 😆💋! Birdie is just as welcoming as Melissa and such a sweet dog. Archie and I look forward to booking with them again! They come highly recommended!

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.
