“Brianne did a wonderful job taking care of my visually impaired elderly cat. She took time to comfort him while we were gone and provided detailed updates. We would definitely hire her again.”
“Kasey was great with Zuzu! My parrot isn’t very friendly, but he warmed up to her quick. She really goes above and beyond, and you can tell she genuinely loves caring for animals. 11/10 recommend!!”
“Mary is a fantastic dog sitter! She was my first experience using Rover and she really set the bar! She was the first to respond to my request (I reached out to several people) and wanted to set up a Meet & Greet. I remember being very impressed as she showed up for the Meet & Greet with a clipboard with specific questions to answer as she got to know myself and my pups. She was very detailed and I could tell she took her dog-care seriously. She was so sweet and I could tell she really loved my fur babies. She went above and beyond and was so responsive and communicative. It really made me feel better about leaving them for the first time. She has a warm and sincere personality and even brought extra skills to the table, such as working with my puppies to be better about getting their leashes on. She even had a play date with their regular play buddies and even their dog-parents said how fabulous she was! Definitely highly recommend her!”
“Jenna is very kind and patient with my pack. Her communication is excellent, she is always on time and my fur babies enjoy seeing her!! It gives me me peace of mind to put them in her care.”
About: My pet care experience started when I adopted my beautiful Staffy, Chloe, back in 2019. I've been able to trained her basic manners and some cool tricks. I've dog-sat for friends and family, ranging from smaller to bigger dogs. I've also volunteered at a few different County Animal Shelters as a Dog Walker. As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone who is attentive and genuinely loves dogs, to take care of yours. I currently work full-time Wednesdays to Saturdays afternoon/night shift. I would love to help on Sundays to Tuesdays. I should be available all day during those three days. It is important for me to work with what's important to you and your fur babies. My main priority is your pet's safety during my care.
“I was delighted, my cats too, with Carolina! She was kind and thoughtful. Even my timid cat, Princess, came out to greet Caroline during our first ,meeting. She added many special touches. When I came home, I enjoyed her note and the chocolate candy covered in bright colors! She even washed all the plates and spoons used to feed my cats. Further, she washed out the empty cat food cans! The liter boxes were nicely cleaned out.. My cats told me they would very much like Caroline to take care of them again 😸😽”
“Jennifer did a great job with my two cats! She showed up consistently on time, kept me informed while we were away, sent lots of photos, and took care of a couple unexpected issues (including changing batteries on our smoke detector!). Highly recommend Jennifer!”
About: I was a volunteer service dog raiser while I was in college. One of my dogs is a seeing eye dog and the other is a PTSD dog. I would also puppy sit other dog trainers dogs if my pups were with my co-raiser. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I currently have a little Maltese that is 13 years old! I hope in the future I can adopt/foster/train as many dogs as I can. I hope to become a certified dog trainer someday :) I’m working part time currently, but I want to spend time with some fur babies. Unfortunately, I had to put down my 14 1/2 year old Maltese recently, so I’m in need of some puppy love. At a clients home, I would make sure I know where everything is in case of an emergency. As well as, making sure the dog is comfortable with me being in their home.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I can remember. From house sitting, to walking them, to even taking care of my own dog. I’ve worked with different breeds and ages, and I love them all! I stay at home mostly throughout the week, and I’ve been wanting to get out a couple of times, and this would be the perfect opportunity to take care of your dogs in walking, or dropping by to play! I live in an apartment complex, so I would have to go to where you are to walk/play with your dog, or I could take them to a dog park!
“Lauren was awesome with my two dogs. They loved her the minute she came to meet them and keep me super looped in while I was away. It was such a relief to travel knowing that my babies were in good hands!”
“Mina was a great sitter. She went beyond what was asked, provided exceptional care for him, and sent us great pictures and videos of Finn. Definitely recommend her for your pup!”
“Hailey did a great job looking after my cat while I was away. She was responsible and communicative. I highly recommend her and would definitely book her again!”
“Prompt and good communication. Would definitely recommend Katie!”
“Jessica was able to sit for us on short notice and took care of our fur babies during the holiday season. She was flexible, able to administer medicine and spent time playing with our cats to help de-stress them while we were away.”
“I recommend Victoria, who took wonderful care of my dog and cat, and they loved her. I will definitely use Victoria for pet care in the future.”
About: I grew up always having dogs in my family, and now I love caring for yours! I have fostered many puppies and dogs, and have adored every one! I give them lots of love, and help them feel at home. I work from home with a lot of flexibility, so am here for you. Since I work remotely, I can care for your pets in my home or yours. Available to help you with walks, overnights, weekends and more. I am mature, experienced and trustworthy. I will treat your dog like they're my own so you can feel comfortable leaving them in my care. I love to let them cuddle on the couch, play with toys in the yard, and have gates and a crate available, if needed.
