“We recently had Samuel look after our dog in our home while we traveled for a few days. He offered a meet and greet and explained very thoroughly how he’d care for our dog. He listened and asked questions about our dog’s routine to make sure he provides the best care. While we were traveling, we received daily text messages with pictures and updates of our dog. We had a great experience working with Sam, Thank You for taking such amazing care of our dog and home. Mini really enjoyed your company! We will be in contact again!”

“Sophie was Outstanding, Exceptional, and a wonderful sitter for Kato! She stopped by the day prior for quick meet and greet, arrived early, was patient, and sent pics/updates throughout the day.

“Gabby is great! She stayed with our 4 fur babies. She got our scared one to come out of her shell the first time she met her. That never happens even for our family members. She also took them on longer walks than I had been able to. She took great care of them even with all 4 being completely different personalities.”
About: I have always been involved with animals. My dad actually used to have a chameleon breeding business. So at the time our house was pretty much a huge enclosure for them and it was a really awesome experience to be able to be apart of that. Ive loved dogs since i was a kid. I would have a huge attachment to my old dog mojo. Im currently working with with a few friends on landscaping somedays or going solo just cutting neighborhoods lawns. I will be able to make time for this as well. I walk my little dog almost everyday when im at my moms, he’s the only dog I have here. At my dads I have 2 big dogs and one little dog i will usually go on walks and play with them outside
About: I’m a super proud dog mom to 3 pups ages 5 months to 15 years. Loving and taking care of dogs has been part of my daily life since I was a child and nothing makes me happier than playing, walking, or cuddling dogs. I’m that person who any time they see a dog at a park and asks to pet them. I have experience with senior care, puppy training, and anxious pets. With me, your pet will get tons of attention and love. I’m a former wedding singer so they’ll also get entertainment with me as their sitter 😂 My day job is 100% remote which allows me to be available on short notice and for long periods of time. This flexible schedule makes all types of rover bookings easy for me. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and 3 well socialized dogs to keep your fur baby company! I can easily kennel them as well.
“Kathryn is a pet whisperer! She came to watch my new dog, who I recently rescued from a tough life on the streets. My dog is fearful of new people, but Kathryn was so patient with her and by the end of day two, they were besties. My cat also decided she was good people! Kathryn sent multiple pictures and videos, and left my house spotless. THANK YOU!”

Christina was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond with the updates and pictures of my baby. She did in house sitting and I would never know someone even stayed at my home. She respected my space and make sure my baby got all the love!! Will definitely be re-booking!
We love having Braydon take care of our pets, and they look forward to seeing him. When he shows up, they don't even notice that we are leaving. Such peace of mind knowing that our babies are happy and well cared for when we are away. We will use Braydon as long as he is willing to have us!!!
Dena is amazing and warmhearted when it comes to loving my fur babies! I feel very much at peace and at ease knowing she is in my home giving my babies the attention they need and deserve! I will have her as my nanny moving forward knowing my babies were also very happy and loved on from the pics she sent.
Meghan was very responsive and proactive in letting me know about any concerns that arose with our fur babies during our trip. She took care of our home, which was tidy when we got back. She sent pics a few times during our booking, but maybe could have done this more just to reassure us. Overall, she is very sweet, seemed to do very well with our pets, and they and our house were in great shape when we got back. I would definitely book with Meghan again.
I can not say enough amazing things about Robyn! She came to meet with us beforehand to get to to know the dogs, and to make sure it was a good personality fit. Our dogs, Rory and Frankie, took to her right away. She was extremely communicative and timely prior to, during, and after the booking. Robyn stayed at our home for 4 nights and 5 days. She updated us daily with the best pictures and messages. She even watered our garden and took out/brought in the recycling and trash. The dogs ADORED her, and we did too. We are very careful about who we give full access to our home, and are beyond very protective of our fur babies. We came home to our home nicer than we left it to very happy, healthy dogs. I recommend Robyn with enthusiasm, and without reservation-just don't book the dates we need! Ha! ;)
They were very caring for our babies as this was the first time to use a house sitter. We were able to meet & greet to review all the little quirks the dogs had and they were smitten at first visit. Thank you for taking care of our babies as well as our home and we WILL be asking for your assistance in the near future.
If want a professional sitter Key is who want. She is excellent with animal that you might have. We have four dogs and Key handled them with no issues. The house was exactly as we left. She goes the extra mile to ensure they are well taken care of. Thanks Key. Hard to find people like you. We will definitely look you up next time we need someone to watch our dogs.
Last minute trip and Leslie was quick to reply, stop by for an introduction. During the stay received updates and photos. Babies were happy, played and even eat as if they knew her all along (not normal from my spoiled boys). Home was well cared for and even cleaned sheets and remade bed. Will rebook.
