This was our first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Jamie is very kind hearted and our two fur babies enjoyed their time with her. One of our pups usually does not immediately take to people and she went right over to Jamie and visited with her a couple of times during our meet and greet prior to hiring Jamie. Jamie was fine with the instructions we left for feeding, walking, and how to make our fur family feel less stressed by keeping their routine. We already have Jamie scheduled for two more trips we have coming up. Thanks for your help Jamie. ☺️

Joanna was so reliable and communicative, as always. We were gone for 5 days and, each day, Joanna kept us informed with pictures that our pets were doing well. We never worry about a thing while Joanna stays with our babies!

This is the first time that my wife and I have ever used Orin Rose to attend to our two beloved pets: Daisy (French Bulldog) and Gatsby (Siamese cat). Our overall impressions from initial contact to closure with Orin Rose were never less than extremely favorable. We found our petsitter to be a bright, perceptive, caring, and proactive young woman. While we vacationed for a week in the Bahamas, we left Orin Rose detailed instructions pursuant to the care of our furry family members as well as for the maintenance of our home. All instructions received were perfectly attended to. Communications by way of text and photographs were initiated on a daily basis by our Rover.com caretaker with desirable specificity. When we finally returned home, we found Daisy and Gatsby to be both happy and healthy and our home's interior was left in immaculate condition. We intend to use Orin Rose's services again in the future and recommend other pet owners consider doing so too.

Rae is amazing with my two pups! From the moment I met her I could tell not only were they very relaxed and comfortable with her, but I was too! She caters to the one “white Velcro” pup and deals with her energy just as I do! It’s nice to have finally found someone where I am not stressed and anxious leaving my doggos with! I highly recommend and will be using her in the future!

Jessica was terrific. Our dog is scared of people and takes time to warm up to new people. Jessica handled it perfectly. We would definitely request her again.

Danielle was amazing! She kept me informed on how my dogs are doing and she made sure to give my elder dog her medication in the mornings and at night and sometimes during the day if she needed it. Danielle was very responsive and she kept my house, clean and tidy, definitely use her again

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sandra was an amazing pet sitter! She took great care of my two dogs while I was away, making sure they were happy, well-fed, and given plenty of attention. I loved getting updates and pictures, which reassured me that they were in good hands. She treated my home with care and left everything just as I had it. I highly recommend Sandra to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Jaryn has taken care of my one to three cats for the past 10 years. She has always been available whether for a single day or up to over a week. Jaryn has had no issues giving different foods to the various cats and has been giving daily oral medication to one of them for more than five years. She often sends me photos of my babies when I’m out of town and I trust her with my home. I definitely recommend Jaryn for your pet care!

Absolutely so appreciative for her care for our pup while we were gone. She took care of our house and cleaned so nicely when she left. We are so happy we found her. It puts our mind at ease knowing she will be with our lil guy when we cannot.

Bethany is great especially with animals. She stayed in our home over a weekend and took care of our two dogs, sent photos of them and was always checking in with us letting us know what was happening at the house. We would highly recommend Bethany and we will use her for future needs.

Kelsey is fantastic with our pup and we’ve had her watch him several times. He is a bit of a nervous dog sometimes but he absolutely loves her and I know he gets extra spoiled when he’s with Kelsey. She sends us updates and cares for him like he’s her own. I highly recommend trusting your furbaby with Kelsey!
