Meri was great with Coconut. She was very accommodating also as I had to change the drop off and pick up time since our plans changed.

My baby came home healthier and happier than with any past sitter. She’s also exhausted! Evidence of how much love and attention she got from Meri. Thank you Meri for taking such great care of Billie and for the excellent communication!

Meri was great! My dogs warmed up to her instantly. She was a great communicator, left the house spotless, and we returned to happy dogs. Highly recommend!

Meri did a great job with our dog and cat. She is very responsive when we would text her. And we had very contented pets when we got home. We will definitely look to her again for future needs.

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.
