“Chauna took great care of our boy and we are very happy with our experience. We received pictures each time she came to the house and was quick to respond. Highly recommend.”
“Crystin sent me updates with each visit. She had to search for my kitty that has very good hiding places, even more than I knew! Highly recommend! Will definitely use again! Already scheduled!”
“Ariana was the best! Right away she told me that my cats were beautiful, and she seemed genuinely excited to watch them. She sent me updates and pictures every time she went over to my house, and I could tell that my cats were in good hands the whole time! They all came out for her, which does not always happen, so they could tell she was a good one!”
“She's very sweet and caring for our pup, she send tons of photos and videos each day to update us. Our girl had the best time. I would highly recommend her to anyone that truly loves their dog. Thank you Jessica, you are the best 💖”
“Sarah and her husband Russell (also a Rover sitter) both take care of my furbabies and are irreplaceable. They both know their likes and dislikes and give them so much attention. (Including Peyton, my cat and both of my fish) who aren't even on their list of babies to care for. They've even gone so far as to bring packages inside of my house, If I have a package arrive, they will haul it inside for me! Including heavy ones like a mattress and furniture. They go above and beyond the call of duty and they are more like extended family than sitters! I appreciate them and am so grateful to Rover for connecting me with such awesome people. I wouldn't trust my babies with anyone else.”
“Chuck was wonderful! It was our first time using a dog walker since we got our puppy. Chuck volunteered to come and meet our dog prior to his first drop-in free of charge which was wonderful for the dog and his parents! :) We will be using him again in the future 100%!”
“Rebecca is great! Our animals loved her. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Mary was great! I received an update each day of our vacation on Addison and Rafter. Mary has a true heart for animals so I had no worries my babies were taken care of. Highly recommend!”
About: I am a Veterinary Technician of 11 years and currently at a specialty practice, so I am able to administer medications and provide post-op care. I have open availability as I am at home with my new human addition. I am very loving with all animals and livestock. I am very familiar with "hard to handle" pets as well, even the spicy kitties. I am also CPR certified for cats and dogs. I have open availability now that I am a stay at home mom. I am very flexible with time requests as well. I am available on some holidays. I have one pet in the home. Reesie Marie is a sweet girl and loves to play ball, but is also older so she just hangs out on her little doggy couch. She gets along with all pets. I also have room to separate pets in case they do not get along.

About: I'm a life long animal lover with 10 years of pet sitting experience. I am a fur mama to a tortoise shell kitty named Luna and a Doberman mix named Peter! I've had experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, and love giving each one the love and attention all animals deserve. I am comfortable with assisting in training and following the rules you set for your babies. I am also willing to work with other fur babies too. As a senior cat mom to an asthmatic cat who receives an inhaler daily, I know how to comfort and care for animals. I work a full time job and am able to take care of pets on weekends and during the mornings, lunch time, and evenings of the work week. I am all about reducing stress for your pet! I want to provide the best care including enrichment, relaxation, and compassion. If you have a playful pup, I am always happy to schedule a play date
