As always, Jeffrey knocked it out of the park. We always feel so comfortable and confident heading out of town knowing that our babies (and house) will be perfectly cared for. He really goes the extra mile for the pups and with general tasks around the house and we really appreciate it. Communication of all events, big or small, is quick and clear. I’ll recommend him forever to anyone!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life of all sizes. I grew up with a great pyranees/ border collie and have a dog of my own who is a dachshund. I dog sat for my neighbor, friends, and relatives frequently. I also have experience in sitting for cats as well. I can also help your dog learn new tricks! I taught my dog how to sit, stay, lay down, paw, roll over, follow, and wait all within 6 months. I am currently a part-time employee and have a dog of my own, so I have plenty of time and experience in pet care to give your furbaby the care they deserve! I’m flexible to what they need. Whatever needs you have for your furbaby I can meet! My dog is very particular, so I am patient, willing and understanding to what your pet needs.

Katharine was fantastic! She watched Winston for a few days and took great care of him - making sure he got plenty of walks, had everything he needed, and was well looked after the entire time. She also provided thoughtful updates, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with Winston again.

About: I have walked several of my friends dogs and was a pet sitter in high school! I love animals and joined rover because I’m not ready to have my own dog but would love to spend my weekends caring for them! I’m currently working full time Mon-Thurs, but will have plenty of time on the weekends to play with your pups! I enjoy long walks and have a doggy park in my apartment complex. I have one bearded dragon that is in an enclosed cage and can be kept out of sight of dogs, but I’ve found that most dogs really like him! I am able to use the doggy park in my apartment complex and an enclosed balcony for smaller pups to roam around as well.

About: I love taking care of pets, specifically dogs! I grew up with labs and absolutely love being around them. I have frequently watched my parents and sibling’s dogs. I have also done drop in visits for neighbors. I I am in school full time but will be able to work walk dogs on my day off or after work. I am also home on weekends so will be free to play all day! I live in an apartment but have green space outside so can take them out and play often! I also live in a very walkable area great for drop in or a quick evening walk

Nina has looked after our two cats twice now and she will always be the first sitter that I look next time I need to book a sitter! Both cats were extremely well cared for and I have total peace of mind while on vacation knowing she is looking after them. She shares great updates and it is clear to me she “gets” our two quirky cats. Thank you as always, Nina!

We asked Grace to check in on our crazy orange cat a few times while we were out of town pretty last-minute, and she exceeded all expectations! She sent lots of pictures and gave great summaries each time she visited. Our cat hates to be alone for too long, and it was such a relief to know that Grace was giving her some much-needed love and attention! We'd definitely use Grace's services again in the future.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Theresa. A friend recommended her to me, and she watched my cat over a long weekend. Right from the initial meet-and-greet, I knew she was the perfect fit, she immediately got down on the floor to meet my cat on her level, which meant so much. While we were gone, her attention to cleanliness and detail was great. She cleaned the water bowls and soft food dishes daily and handled the litter box exactly as instructed. I absolutely loved the tons of photo updates she sent, you could see how safe and comfortable my cat felt around her. On top of everything, she was incredibly accommodating with a last-minute request. I am so grateful for her care and will definitely be booking her again!
