About: I’ve had vet experience, as well as dog sitting experience! I love animals, and getting to take care of them! I’ve had pets since I was 9. I’ve had a few clients, and it’s always been such a great experience, and I love being able to give the pet parents a stress free time away from their pet. I currently work a part-time job while continuing my college education. I have an extremely flexible schedule and I am excited to make pet sitting a part of my routine:) I am always big on safety, and want to have the best atmosphere for not only the pet, but the pet parent, and myself. Making sure they have water at all times, and food, and access to the bathroom is important, but also being able to spend quality time with them as well.
“The sitter we have used for the past few years is no longer on Rover. I contacted Rebecca and she responded very quickly and setup a meet and greet. Rebecca stayed at our house and watched our 2 dogs and cat. She was great with our animals and we felt very comfortable with her. One of our dogs got sick last minute and the vet prescribed medication the day we were leaving town. I reached out to Rebecca to let her know and she was very understanding and still willing to pet sit. She communicated during our trip and sent photos, and clearly our dogs were happy with her! Next time we go out of town we'll definitely be contacting Rebecca again! Thank you for taking great care of our pets!”
“Nicole did just a wonderful job. I felt like my dogs were well cared for and safe which meant all the world to me and I absolutely love getting photos of what they're doing and she shared those.”

“This was our first time using Lauren and will NOT be our last!! She is AMAZING!! We have 3 dogs, a senior Poodle, an adult Terrier and a Feist puppy. All house dogs. We hired Lauren for a full week and she did not disappoint! She provided pictures throughout the week showing them happy and playing! In the past we've had to board them, and would always pick them up with lost weight, smelly/dirty, emotionally rattled and exhausted (probably due to lack of sleep). This year we came HOME to 3 happy, clean, and healthy dogs! She also kept our plants watered, chickens fed and the house was cleaner than we left it!! Do yourself and your pets a favor next time you go out of town....get Lauren!! Best decision EVER!”

As always, Alex was fantastic with our fur babies and we came home to incredibly happy pets! Alex house sits for us, and he and Levi always leave the house in better shape than they found it. It's so nice to be able to go on vacation and know we have nothing to worry about. Alex is the best and we won't use anyone else if we can help it!
