About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I had my very own fur baby. I knew what it was like firsthand to take care of him, give him attention, and make sure he was okay at every moment. I loved him with everything bone in me. I treat other dogs how I would want my dog to be treated. Pet care fits into my weekly routine because I have a full-time job, but I still have plenty of time to give to my fur buddies! I am free before 3 pm on weekdays and free any time on weekends! I kept the wires and cords in small areas my dog couldn’t reach. I also made sure to close doors to certain rooms in my home that could be a potential risk to my dog if I wasn’t in the home for a long period of time. I took him for regular grooming and vet visits to keep his health on track. I did tons of research on what food to feed him since he was a pug, which requires a bit more attention than other dogs.

“Christopher has been an amazing dog sitter for our family for the past few years. Our golden retriever Dude absolutely loves Christopher and gets so excited to see him whenever he comes over. He takes Dude on plenty of walks throughout the day and always sends us happy photos of the two of them while we’re out of town. Christopher is also a very polite house guest, and always leaves the house cleaner than he found it.”

“Alyssa is wonderful and communicative! She took him to the dog park, played with him, gave him a long walk, and kept me posted the whole time. I felt great knowing Rooster was in such good hands and when I got home I could tell *such* a difference from the days when he was alone-- he was happy, calm, and had obviously had a great time with Alyssa.”
19. cedric p.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was hesitant to give it a go for Winston’s first 60 minute walk. Booking with Cedric was truly meant to be and the entire experience was exceptional. Cedric arrived on time, took the initiative to meet Winston, and asked important questions to ensure Winston’s needs were met. Cedric exemplified exceptional professionalism, performance, and passion; which instilled an incredible sense of trust. Winston started his walk with excitement and gravitated towards Cedric’s enthusiasm. Cedric fulfilled all my expectations and truly went above and beyond. When Winston’s walk was completed, he immediately ran to the window looking for Cedric. Our hearts were smiling and we can’t wait to book another walk with Cedric. I highly recommend Cedric to anyone who wants their fur baby to have an energizing and playful walk. Excellent work, Cedric. Winston sends his thanks to you and can’t wait to see you again soon.”
20. Amani S.
“Amani is amazing! She’s very attentive, respectful, caring and responsive. You can absolutely tell she’s a fellow pet owner. I’m so glad to have found her. I will absolutely use her again.”
