“Dogs were happy and content upon my return! Job well done! Very personable young lady who knows the job well. I have confidence that she can handle whatever difficult situation might come up with the pets!”

“Rebecca was so great! She was super easy to work with. Very good at communicating updates and I could tell when we got home that our animals were well cared for and loved! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“Carolina provided above and beyond care and updates while watching Roxy while we were away for the weekend! Her interactions with our GSD and the updates she would provide made it easy for us to enjoy our time away but also have peace of mind that Roxy was getting the attention she needed. We think Carolina must be psychic, because whenever we were wondering what our Roxy was up to or just wanting to see her today, we’d get an update and some photos to get a peek at their day! Will definitely want to have Carolina help in the future and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a Rover whether it’s your first or have had a few.”

“Tierney was wonderful! Did in home pet sitting for my puppy and 2 cats. Sent lots of updates, photos, and was more than happy to accommodate last minute extra things. Our house was left so clean you couldn’t even tell she was there. Would happily have her back!”

“We’ve got a long list of all the things we loved and appreciated about Jo during her stay with our fur baby. We truly couldn’t feel luckier that we connected with her! Our Brighton can be a bit of a handful but Jo’s confidence, kindness, knowledge, and the genuine excitement she showed made me KNOW that our girl was in the best of hands. Throughout her stay she provided great “pup-dates” with professional quality photos of what they were up to. She also helped out with some tasks around our house which was not expected but incredibly appreciated. We came home to a clean and tidy home and a very thoughtful thank you note with a super cute Polaroid photo. She thanked us but really we owe her all the thanks!! Would love to have her sit for us again in the future. Thanks, Jo!”

“Kevin did a wonderful job with Linus for the 6 days we were gone. He went above and beyond what was expected by making sure the dishes were done and the house was clean. Definitely would love to use Kevin again in the future.”

“Jennifer has stayed with our senior dog, Riley, a few times and always seems to do very well with him. She keeps his schedule of potting and feeding, and sends us frequent pictures. The house is kept up and remains tidy. We appreciate she works her career from our home. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Aida did great with our girl Faye and the updates and pics she sent were so helpful in keeping me calm. This was the first time we ever used Rover and our first time leaving Faye alone since her pup brother crossed the rainbow bridge so I was pretty nervous. If you're thinking about reaching out to Aida, I would say definitely give it a shot! She has a lot of positive and friendly energy that your kiddo will love! Thanks Aida!”

“I've used Alexa twice so far and hopefully many more times depending on her availability. She love my two dogs and they love her being here. It's hard to leave them when I do have leave them at home but having Alexa here makes that's easier because I know they're getting great care..I'd recommend her anytime...”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to dog sit and both in my home and theirs, board also in mine, walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I enjoy them so much I reach out at times to see if I can simply take their dogs for a walk some days just for enjoyment only, even if the owner is home. I’m currently working full-time from home as a permanent remote employee. I have flexible time to take care of your dog for potty breaks, feeding & play time. After 3:30 pm I am on personal time. I am free to board dogs any day of the week. I have an open yard shared with neighbors in our townhome association. I have the ability to walk dogs for potty breaks or put them out on their cable from three optional doors. If boarding overnight, they need to be crate trained and would be in their owner provided crates overnight and/or if I need to run an errand outside my home.
“Bekah was amazing! She was so caring and lovely to our 16 year old Yorkie💙 & 2 year old Aussiedoodle💜She checked in daily with cute pictures too. She was very attentive and caring for our elderly dog which put me at ease. She tidied up our house and watered our flowers too. I would highly recommend Bekah to care for your fur babies!”

“Stefan took great care of our senior dog, he understood his condition and provided the best care and support for him. We know Chavo will be in the best care with Stefan.”

“Corinne was great! We were able to connect with her a few times before her first time watching our dog, and he was well taken care of! She has a lot of experience with foster dogs, which made us feel confident she'd take good care of our dog. Thanks Corinne!”

“Very sweet and fabulous with our dog who has a lot of separation anxiety. Our dog loved her and when I came home, she didn’t go crazy like usual if I leave the house for a bit, which means she wasn’t feeling aa anxious. I really appreciate the care for our dog and look forward to booking her again!”

“Nicole stayed at our house to watch our fur babies! Nicole sent pictures and let us know when she got there and left. This was the first time ever having someone outside of family watch our dogs, Nicole eased our minds by having a great connection with them at our meet and greet and communicating with us during her stay. Will definitely have her watch them again!”

“Ashlie is always so wonderful when she stays with our pups! She and her dog, Merlin have stayed three times now and we are always so impressed. She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures! The house is always clean and tidy. I cannot recommend Ashlie enough! She’s fantastic!”

“Pets were in good health upon our return. McKenzie came to our home a week before house sitting to meet our pets and see their routine. She arrived on time.Both our pets have medications and they were given as requested.”
