I couldn’t recommend Jamie more! Jamie watched our cats and dog while we traveled and it was one of the first times that my husband and I were able to actually relax and forget about our pets, rather than worry about them with a sitter! Jamie was communicative, punctual, and warm. He sent pictures and updates and I felt comfortable asking for any needs that popped up throughout our time away! Jamie will be the first person I contact for our future house sitting needs. Thank you so much Jamie- excited for you to see the babies again!

Noemi was very kind and patient with my two large dogs, one of whom is very high energy, and the other who is very shy and fearful. Noemi sent many pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip. She left my home cleaner than she found it, and the dogs were fine when I got back. I can recommend her heartily!

Simply, Adeline was a perfect pet sitter in pur home. Our little dog is 16 years old and doesn't hear. He also was highly traumatized before we adopted him, so new people make him very agitated. deline was amazing with him. She was kind enough to agree to a pre vacation meetup before our holiday. She listened to our concerns and clearly treated him well. By the time we came home a week later, she was his bestie. Adeline sent us photos periodically with updates and seemed to really care about them, offering to sit for us again in the future. We're so grateful to Adeline for her patience and care; she made it possible for me to relax on vacation knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Adeline!

Taylor got along great with our tricky, anxious dog, and our senior cat loved snuggling with her. My partner calls her “the dog whisperer.” She was very attentive to our instructions, asked for clarification when needed, requested a video of how to give the cat his medication the right way, and communicated with us regularly and shared lots of videos. Our elderly dog had a medical issue come up while we were gone, and she had the supplies and experience to get him into her car and to the emergency vet, then spent the whole afternoon and into the late night at the vet with him. She was very reassuring through a difficult time and it helped so much to be able to trust that he was in expert hands. We didn’t know how we could possibly take a vacation due to our pets’ high needs, and we’re so glad we found Taylor!! We returned to happy pets and a home that was just as we left it.

About: I have been a certified veterinary technician for 6 years. I've been taking care of pets ranging from fish, reptiles, dogs, and cats for pretty much my entire life! I also worked as a positive reinforcement dog trainer for a couple years while in tech school. As a veterinarian technician, I have experience administering medications and dog/cat CPR. I also have experience with fearful or reactive dogs. I am looking to make this full time so I am hoping to spend as much time w your pets as possible. I am currently open to booking any day of the week and can stay overnight. While I'm at home I am always cuddled up with one of my pets and it would be no different in your home! As a pet sitter/walker, my goal is to give your pets the attention they want and follow the routine you have! I want their time away from you to be as stress free as possible.

Jeanne was absolutely wonderful! She stayed with our dog and cat for two nights and took such great care of everything. She checked in daily, sent thoughtful updates and photos, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, she went above and beyond by leaving us homemade pickles and marinara sauce. Such a kind and unexpected touch! Our home, dog and cat were clearly cared for with so much love. We would 100% book Jeanne again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.

Natalie was a wonderful and considerate dog/cat/house sitter. Our old dog had a lot of anxiety when our family was gone over the holidays. It was the first time he had a sitter from Rover. He really gave Natalie a hard time, and his hip dysplasia took a turn. Natalie was so caring and great at communicating and coming up with ideas to help him take his meds. She gave us a lot of piece of mind while we were gone.

We were so impressed with Tadgh. Our dog gravitated to him right away. He messaged us about a man that came up to our door and knocked on it about eight hours after we left. We were so glad he was housesitting for us. He is a responsible and attentive person. We will definitely schedule him again.

Ann was always on time, reliable, and made sure Muffin got his medication and followed his daily routine. This was our first time using Rover and leaving him at home. He’s very attached to us and has some separation anxiety, but Ann made the whole experience easy and comforting. We appreciated the daily updates, had total peace of mind and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛
