3. Jessie B.
“First time leaving my senior dog alone for a week. We decided to try a sitter on Rover, and we are happy with our dog and with the care that Jessie V. put into caring for Sammi, and for the house. At 15 years old, Sammi has messes, and I am grateful for Jessie's care in caring for Sammi, and for the condition of the carpet and floors. When we saw Sammi after being away for a week, he seemed happy, well-fed, and the room smelled clean. Thanks, Jessie!”

“Tiffany was very diligent and caring to my old boy who had diabetes. We were gone a week and she took such outstanding care of him. She was patient with him and even bought him treats and toys. I could not have chose a better sitter. She was better then any family member caring for him. I felt very comfortable knowing she watch him. She also kept my plants alive while I was gone which was a big plus. I can't thank her enough.”

She took such great care of our three cats while we were away—each day, she sent detailed updates along with cute photos that really put our minds at ease.

I will absolutely continue to book Jackie for future Rover visits. ”

Thank you Laura!”
