“Mohita was really a very compassionate detail oriented sitter. Romeo had the best time as he had coco to play with Mohita family treated him as family. He felt he was at home. We had a worry free vacation as Mohita kept us updated on Romeo with pictures and how he was doing with his diet and other activities. Overall we can’t expect anything more from Mohita and family.”

About: I have been fostering for over 15 years and petsitting for about 5 of those years. I took a break for some time when I moved to Texas, and then the pandemic added to that. Most recently, I was taking care of my grandmothers dog.. essentially a hospice situation, and spent most of my time loving up on him. Since his passing, I would love to get back into it so can provide care and love. I’m used to all breeds, but have the most experience with bully breeds chihuahuas, and most medium size breeds like shitzhus, Maltese’s, and schnauzers. Very comfortable providing oral or topical ointments.. nothing really grosses me out. I enjoy providing baths and making sure your furry friend is feeling their best. Especially for my dirty white dogs with the crusty eyes (lol)! Overall, I treat every pet that walks into my life like it were my own. I take pride in knowing that I’m giving someone’s pet lots of love and care while their owner is away. I want them to feel like they’re hanging with a friend and try to alleviate any stress. Leaving your baby for any period of time is tough, so knowing you have someone you can trust to be an extension of you is all I want. I lost my job recently, so I’ll have a lot more time for walks, feedings, and of course cuddle time with the puppies. Other than caring for my own kitty, my time would really be catered to your needs as an owner should you choose me to help take care of your little one. Our home has a partially fenced in yard that we can allow your pet to enjoy. There’s a full basement, living room, and bedroom that the pups can enjoy relaxing in and hanging out. There’s space for a crate as well for those who are or in the process of training.

Asked detailed questions about his routine/schedule to make sure he’d be ok. She was nice and flexible with me for pickup/drop off knowing it was a drive for me and I had family events that didn’t have an actual end time set (just approximate) If I’m in the area again and needed a sitter I’d 1000% rebook!”

I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.”

That includes their pooch “Coco” who was playful and not territorial with a visiting doggie scampering around the house. Dhara sent plenty of updates and photos during Mr. Darcy’s visit as of an upcoming longer stay. The stay could not have gone better, and we’re very confident and comfortable leaving Mr. Darcy in the caring hands Dhara and her family going forward. Its clear that they’re “dog people” who care.”

Becky was a great and fast communicator and followed our instructions well. We joked that maybe she wouldn’t want to come back home. Upon pickup Leyla was very happy and very much herself. We will book Becky again the next time we need a pet sitter!”

Letitia was great and easy to work with, especially since we booked on short notice. Our dog is usually timid when going into new environments, but came back very excited. We look forward to having Oreo stay with her again and would definitely recommend.

Krystsina was great. This was my first time using Rover and I booked last minute but she very reliable! She made me and my dog extremely comfortable. She made sure to send pictures and videos throughout the stay and kept me updated on how he was doing. My dog sometimes gets anxious around new faces but she made sure to give him treats, take him outside, and play with him to make sure he felt comfortable with her and her daughter. He looked like he was having a great time. I will definitely book with her in the future!

Suna was just wonderful with Nugget. We got cheerful daily updates and tons of great pictures! Nugget looked so happy and relaxed— lots of walks, eating, sleeping, and totally comfortable. Suna’s warmth and attentiveness really showed, and it was obvious that Nugget had a fantastic stay. We’d absolutely have Suna help us with Nugget again in a heartbeat.

Jaimie took beautiful care of my gentle giant, Ollie. Ollie is 100 pounds of love and fluff and I was very anxious about leaving him because he is so attached to me. Jaimie made me feel at ease at our meet and greet and we got to meet her pup and cat. With a big fenced in backyard, lots of dog toys, and a comfy couch for lounging, Jaimie made me feel right at home. We told her that Ollie might be too nervous to eat, and she sent pictures and updates constantly. Ollie was eating in no time and Ollie came home happy and well fed. Ollie loves humans snd she sent pictures of her and the dog watching tv together at night and of Ollie with her daughter. I am happy to recommend her and will be using her again!

Shannon was AMAZING with our pup! She sent us pics and funny updates throughout his stay, which made me feel so comfortable knowing that he was being taken cared of. She took him on tons of walks and to the fenced in dog park. She also let him make himself comfy on her couch and bed so he was cozy. I would definitely recommend Shannon and will definitely book with her again if she is available.

Marsha was phenomenal. The first night my epileptic dog was there he had a seizure through no fault of hers. She was calm, communicative and compassionate. She handled it so well and with such responsibility and concern. Luckily for all, .the rest of my dogs’ stay was much less eventful! Despite it all, she fell in love with my dogs—it was obvious—and they seemed to adore her. She is a gem and I would highly recommend her if you want a responsible and loving sitter who is battle tested.
