Steph was soo amazing and such a sweetheart with my dogs. My Bella is weary of people but warmed up to Steph extremely fast. Her updates and photos of our dogs during her visits made it all the more heartwarming and comforting knowing they’re in good hands. Definitely highly recommend and will be coming back when needed. Thank you again for being so wonderful! 🤍💕

Erika was my first booking ever on the rover app and she made it a pleasant experience. She showed up early and went above and beyond to make sure my dog and puppy were good. I was called to work last min and she managed to come out and save the Day. Her communication was great. I definitely recommend

Hunter watched our cats while we were away and was amazing! We received pictures and updates everyday, plus our cats seemed super comfortable and were even laying on Hunter’s lap. We’ll definitely book with Hunter again the next time we’re traveling!

I am so happy I found Jenna! She did an amazing job looking after my kitty, so I was able to enjoy my holiday without worrying. She even did things I didn’t ask her to do, such as watering my plants. It was great to come home and find my pet happy and healthy and everything in good order. Highly recommended!!

About: There are multiple reasons why I would be the perfect person to take care of your pet! I worked at Guiding eyes for the Blind where I helped train and care for labs and German shepherds. I have worked at a dog kennel and a veterinary center where I provide top care to the client's pets. I aid dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, healthy to unwell, teacup to gigantic. I have also dog sat for multiple friends for days on end. I currently have a 14 year old lab mix that I have taken care of since I was a teenager. I also have a 2 year old lab pup with tons of energy. I prefer to hike my dogs in the woods and let them explore and chase the squirrels. We play fetch and tug of war. I could do the same with your dog! With this experience, I know that dogs need lots of care and love with some fun and snuggles! I am currently going to school to be an ultrasound technician and would love some extra work on the side. My schedule changes with each semester but the best type of study breaks are outside and playing with fur babies. I will follow your instructions closely on how to properly care for your pet. I will make sure that safety is the number one concern to make sure that everyone is well taken care of.

Overall, I would rate Lindsay as a good pet-sitter. Prior to our vacation, she was very timely in responding to my messages and she also modified the Rover.com charges to a very reasonable rate for her visits with our 2 cats. It was while we were gone that I felt she fell short. My first issue was with her inconsistency in providing updates on the visits - there was a photo and thorough recap on the 1st day, but on subsequent days there was less detail and on one day there was no update at all. My second issue was with the timing of her visits. I had made it very clear that it was important to check in during the early afternoon, but at least twice she didn't visit until the evening. My third issue was with attention to detail - I had left very specific notes about the cats' food/water/litter and it didn't seem that she had followed them. Lastly, my greatest concern was with the well-being of our female cat and her being bullied by the male cat in our absence. We came back to find that she had a facial injury and had urinated in a chair out of fear. All-in-all our pets were reasonably cared for, but I was definitely disappointed. Lindsay is a very nice girl and I'm sure she had the best intentions. I think the issues may have been due to lack of experience or perhaps I wasn't clear enough on stressing the importance of certain things. (To those reading this review, please note that I have very high expectations for the care of my pets and I think Lindsay is absolutely capable of meeting the needs of a less demanding client.)

About: I have taken care of pets for a long time. My neighbor had me dog sit last year for about 2 weeks and it was honestly the best experience. I have also had experience with feeding another neighbors dog once a day while they were at work. Hi! I’m home for the summer and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the week for walks and drop-ins. I love spending time with animals and will make sure your pets get plenty of attention, care, and affection! 🐾 I will easily follow every step that is given to me with rules and boundaries of what the pet can or can not do. I will not bend rules

About: I’ve spent several summers caring for both cats and dogs as well as having them in my house growing up! I absolutely love giving them the attention they deserve, whether that’s playtime, walks, or cuddle time. As a 20 year old college student, I bring lots of energy, patience, and genuine love for animals. I enjoy making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for like they’re part of my own family I currently am a college student with mostly early morning classes, so I am up pretty early. I also am a soccer coach for Wilmington hammer heads which is about 2 hours Monday, Wednesday, Thursday nights. Other than that I am extremely flexible and am never busy for long periods of time! Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, safety and comfort always come first. I make sure pets have a clean, secure space, follow their normal routines, and give them plenty of attention so they feel at ease. My goal is to create an environment where pets are happy, loved, and cared for just like they would be with their family.

Laura was awesome! I highly recommend her as she is very conscience and caring towards the needs of all animals. She took great care of our elderly cat while we were away for an 8 day vacation. Laura went above and beyond to vacuum up litter, collect our mail, take out garbage and water plants that family members forgot to attend to. She also made sure the back yard visiting birds had plenty of fresh water. She provides 5 star service and care!

Katie is absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond in caring for my dog. From the moment we connected, her communication was outstanding—she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being and happiness. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I will 100% be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and attentive pet caregiver!
