I was nervous about leaving my house and dog with a complete stranger, but hey, everything appears to be the same way I left it. Mackenzie gave me updates throughout the stay and had no issues walking my dog. She was polite and soft-spoken.

Adelle was so informative with her reports and we loved the photos she sent. The boys loved her visits and we can’t wait to have her pet sit for us again.

Used Rover for the first time with Julia as our sitter. She was wonderful and made our first time using this service very comfortable. She sent us lots of pictures and was very attentive to our dogs. Would definitely recommend her to others.

Christina was so great with our pup! She took great care of him and sent updates and photos everyday. She even went above and beyond and took him for walks and brought toys for him to try out. Thank you Christina!

About: Hello! My name is Elicia and I have been around animals my entire life. I have owned my first dog on my own since 2017, and she is my best friend. I love to spend time with animals, and know the struggle of finding someone trust worthy to take care of your kids! I have great references, and am pretty flexible when it comes to the needs and care of you and your pets. Looking forward to chatting with you! I have a full time job, 7a-4p Monday - Friday. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. I can work from your home as long as you have internet! If enough notice is given, I can work out working from home whatever days you need me as well. I currently have no restrictions when it comes to caring for pets. I have cared for puppies all the way to elderly dogs. I have no allergies, so nothing to worry about there! I can take them for walks, to the dog park, and am willing to do everything I can to keep them on their schedule and stress free!

When choosing a pet sitter, I would look for honesty, integrity, and knowledge of animals, but most important I would look for a person I am comfortable with. Kris has had pets- dogs, cats, ponies, and horses since she was young, and they are part of the family. She watches my dog, and he is always excited to see her. I highly recommend Kris as a pet sitter.

Nodia was a great dog sitter while we were in Philly for vacation. Othello our 1 year old dog loved her. She made sure he got all his walks in and even made him home made treats and bagged some for him to go. I always got pictures of Othello when I checked in. I would definitely be using her services again.

Amy is fantastic! I have 2 dogs and they are very high- needs/special needs dogs. Not only is Amy incredibly kind and gentle, she knows them each inside out and what to watch out for with both of them. She is skilled at medication administration and taking care of health care needs. She is a loving and terrific companion for them, is present when she’s with them, and treats our dogs as her own. Amy has also pet-sat my cat and rabbit. Amy is highly dependable and trustworthy and is my #1 go-to every time I need a pet sitter.

About: I’ve taken care of pets & cared for peoples homes ever since I was 12. I started in Wisconsin, by starting to pet sit one of our neighbors dogs- then we ended up moving around a bit & I eventually got more into it. I’m always wanting to meet people’s animals, it would be really nice opportunity to get back into pet sitting, walking, boarding, etc! I’m currently enrolled in college, however, i don’t start until september 5th. I just moved here, and my job got transferred over so i don’t have any hours just yet. They don’t give me many hours anyway, so i’ve been on the search for a couple more job opportunities. I really want to save some money! I have plenty of time for the next couple weeks! I care for pets depending on the service you’re looking for! I haven’t boarded pets before, I’d like to talk to you about it first before letting an unknown pet into my home. Anyways, no matter what service, I’m always gentle with animals and i’ll always put them first. I love getting to play with them & bonding with them!

Sarah is a trustworthy and kind pet person. She is great with all kinds of dogs, great at maintaining discipline in more unruly dogs, and encouraging shy dogs to break out of their shell. Her love for dogs is clear in her thoughtful and respectful interactions with them. She loves my dog, Susie, who is a handful, and Susie loves her and gets so excited to see her. 10/10 would recommend Sarah for all breeds and temperaments.

Catherine is absolutely wonderful who takes excellent care of my dog. He is an anxious boy that needs a lot of reassurance and Catherine made him feel so at ease, enough to where he would be comfortable playing and eating treats with her, which is a big deal for him! Right off the bat during our first met n greet I knew she was the perfect fit. She is very warm and friendly and has so much patience! She met the unique requests of my schedule and my dogs needs without issue and is always reliable. It is such a relief to come home to a relaxed and happy dog. The notes and photo updates are really nice and help when away from my pup. I look forward to booking Catherine again in the future and couldn't recommend her enough!! Thanks for doing such a great job!!
