Pet care experience

I'll give your dog the best walks!

My friends always call me to watch their dogs while they are at work and take them on walks. I can play with them at parks to get some added exercise as well. I have watched my friends dog who has cancer and have given her medications twice daily while she was gone for the weekend.

I've never used Rover before so I was a little concerned about having a stranger in my apartment and watching my cats, but Valerie was great! She sent a lot of pictures, followed medication instructions, and played with the cats. I'll definitely be using Valerie again.

Valerie is tops! She takes such good care of my cats and really goes above and beyond to befriend them and spend quality time with them during her visits. It takes a load off my mind while I’m traveling to know my cats are in such good hands.

Max seemed to really like Valerie which is the most important consideration when booking a sitter, imo. I would definitely use Valerie again.

Valerie did a great job, was fast friends with my two cats, and followed all of my instructions to a T. Highly recommend!

Let me know about your dog or cats behaviors ahead of time, or if they are special needs. Nothing will be a problem, I just like to know ahead of time!
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.
