Andrea is wonderful! She was able to help on a very short notice and even extended the time of her visit. She was so sweet and understanding of my crazy 6mo old puppy! We can’t wait to use Andrea again

Rick is absolutely amazing. We have two sweet, but anxious pups and they were immediately in love with him. Rick was attentive to them, kept us informed, and was so understanding/respectful of maintaining the same environment for the pups that we try to keep while at home. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a dogsitter or walker!

Very attentive! Jen sent several pictures of each visit with our 3 dogs. All 3 really liked her and went right to her the day of our meet and greet. I even had a package come while I was away and Jen was so sweet to keep an eye for us and bring it inside for me. We will definitely reach out to her again the next time we need a dog sitter.

About: I’m a 21 year old veterinary science student, with two pits that I absolutely adore!! I got Disney at the start of Covid and had to resocialize him all over again afterwards. Then we decided he needed friend. I’ve had experience with fleas, ticks, emergency vet visits- You name it! I love any and all animals, though I understand that each pet is different and has their own set of needs. I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep your baby safe and healthy, I’ll treat them as my own!! ☺️ I work a part time job so I have more than enough free time to care for and play with your pet!! When I am not caring for your pet I’m probably caring for my own! Food, walks, coconut oil rubdown, tucked under the blanket you name it! I recognize that everyone’s schedule varies! I am great at following set routines. So if that means your dog needs to be walked fed and play with within 30 minutes I guarantee you within that 30 minutes will be well done. I will always leave your home and pet cleaner than I found them .

About: Hi pet parents! In addition to 10+ years of personal experience caring for dogs and cats, I also have 2 years of professional experience working for a local reputable pet sitting service where I cared for dogs, cats, and other house/farm animals. I’m passionate about this work and ensuring that your pets feel safe knowing their needs will be met by a trusted companion and caregiver, with the option to cuddle and/or play as much (or little) as they’d like. I have training and first-hand experience in training puppies at home and on their first walks, administering medications, senior and special needs dog care, protecting pets from unleashed dogs in public, heatstroke prevention and protocol, and CPR. I look forward to getting to know your pet’s unique personality and needs! I have morning, midday and afternoon availability. I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule, and with enough notice can make any day of the week work for your pet’s care. I take the needs of each pet very seriously and understand they differ for each one. Any instructions and details you provide will be carefully read and followed to ensure that your pet is not disrupted from the routine and activities that give them a sense of safety. For all of our safety, I also have multiple people aware of my Rover schedule and location so that if communication is lost or unestablished by a certain point, these individuals will make sure we’re checked on in-person by local authorities.

I had an outstanding experience with Lee. When my scheduled sitter canceled Lee was available at the last minute to provide coverage for my fur babies. Lee provided the time, attention and affection to my Dino, Poppy & Trish. Lee took best care and followed my instructions. Even went above and beyond to tidy up before I returned. Thank you so much Lee - I know they were the happiest bunch to have you.

Diana was excellent to work with, from beginning to end. We had a relatively short timeline before going out of town but Diana was very prompt in her communication, notes about our dog and the walks they went on were clear, and we felt very comfortable with her coming into our home while away. We would definitely work with Diana again in the future. Highly recommended.

Azeen was wonderful! We were away for a week and she came in everyday to check in on our sweet girl Ruby. Azeen left detailed comments and was very communicative through the whole week. She even was able to come during a snow storm (greatly appreciative) to make sure our Ruby girl was safe. We would definitely have Azeen help out again!

Crystal was truly a miracle worker with my boy Dino. He became a bit stressed after a recent vet visit and then more so after I wasn’t home. Thanks to Crystal I had no worries. She reassured me after each visit with plenty of updates and photos. She went above and beyond the call of any sitter to keep Dino safe, clean and comfortable.

As always Leah came through for us when we last mintue needed to go out of town for a funeral. Our elderly cat Booger seems to be happier when she comes to see him. It is great to know that our little old man is being cared for and in good company when we can't be here. We appreciate all that she does for him and he clearly seems to love having a new friend visit him.
