Great experience. Richelle followed instructions and kept me updated with my pets while at my house. Great communication and my animals seemed very happy and comfortable :) I will definitely use Richelle again. Thank you!

Richelle was fantastic with our dog, Sophie. We had a family emergency and needed a dog sitter on a very short notice. Rochelle came to meet us and Sophie at the same day and did an amazing job looking after our senior pup the next day. Sent updates, photos and came up with all kind of tricks to feed our picky eater. We really appreciate your help, Richelle!

You can tell Richelle really cares about dogs. They have walked and dog sat for our dog, Chex and even given him oral medications. Richelle really seems to care about chex and we know we can depend on them to take good care of him.

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.
