Anna was a natural with our Thora! She sent me lots of photos and little updates throughout her stay, and was very respectful and tidy in our home. We immediately felt comfortable with her at our meet and greet, and wouldn’t hesitate to have her back! Anna is a communicative, considerate, and compassionate sitter.

Elizabeth was very thorough, communicative, and kind. My pups are new to my home and she was very patient with their needs. I would definitely use her again.

Tresalyn is fantastic! She house sat for us and took wonderful care of our dog, cat, chickens and fish while we were gone. She took the time to get to know our animals ahead of time with a pre visit and was so kind and considerate when we met. She made sure she understood the needs of our high energy, anxious dog and gave her plenty of exercise and lots of love while we were away. It was clear to us when we returned that she had cared for our home and pets with deep love and consideration. She also sent pictures and updates regularly while we were away, which we greatly appreciated! We are so grateful we found her! We can’t recommend Tresalyn enough!

This is my first Rover and I was a little nervous about leaving my anxious needy babies with someone I did not know. We only briefly met one time but was extremely pleased with the pictures sent and the communication with me while we were gone. I feel comfortable she spent the days being their companion. I got home and she had washed the dishes and taken the sheets off the bed. I would book her again the next time I need someone. Thank you Lynsey.

Amelia was fantastic! She took such great care of our two fur babies and even sent me photos during our trip. It was a real comfort knowing she was there loving them. When we got home she didn't leave a trace and even changed the sheets on the bed for us. Highly recommend her services. Thank you so much!!

About: I have experience caring for goats, chickens, horses, hamsters, fish, dogs and cats. I love meeting new animals and providing whatever type of care they need. I currently work at a restaurant Thursday through Sunday but should be able to provide care every few hours around my shifts on those days. Monday through Wednesday, I am free all day except for a few hours on Tuesday evening. I make sure to follow the safety instructions provided by the owner while also keeping the environment fun and comfortable for the pet. Very open to playful animals!

Luna can be a bit funny with new people, being pretty anxious and not wanting to be petted. Hannah was patient with Luna, adjusting as needed to try to keep Luna as comfortable and less stressed as possible. Eventually, Luna calmed down and was sleeping in the bed with Hannah and allowing pets, which means she was finally comfortable with Hannah. The daily updates with pictures gave me peace of mind while I was away from my pup, too! I will for sure use Hannah again for future dogsitting needs!

Ashley was absolutely amazing! Her communication was excellent—she sent us videos and photos where our dogs looked so relaxed and happy, just as if we were there with them. She left our home spotless and even surprised us with sweet cookies to welcome us back. It truly gave us peace of mind to relax and enjoy our vacation, knowing our pups and our home were in such great hands. We’ve already raved about her to friends and family, and we’ll definitely be repeat clients!

Laina was an excellent caretaker for Cooper. Cooper has lots of anxiety and needs lots of patience which Laina was able to provide. She had great communication the whole time and made me feel comfortable Cooper was cared for. As difficult as Cooper can be to handle she was able to do it. I would happily recommend Laina to anyone who wants their dog cared for properly for their specific needs. She even got Cooper to feel comfortable enough to lick her hand which is not like him with new people. Great communication, great care, ten out of ten experience, by far the best I could’ve hired. Thank you so much Laina!

Chloe did an exceptional job watching our Dane. He was dealing with an injury and needed extra attention, a cone and medication and Chloe met all of his needs. This was our first time using Rover and being able to travel with peace of mind that our boy was at home made our trip so much more enjoyable. We came home to a very happy boy and a clean house. We will for sure be using Chloe on future trips and recommend her to any of our friends that have pets.

About: I have always been very passionate about animals and grew up caring for them anyway I could. Over the years, I’ve had experience caring for a variety of animals, including rehabilitating wildlife. I regularly care for family pets when they are out of town and really do enjoy spending time with the animals. I have fostered both cats and dogs through AHS, and brother wolf which gave me experience with medical care, administrating medicine, and being able to handle animals with different needs and personalities. I am very committed to being able to give your pets a comfortable and safe environment while with me. I currently work part time so I have lots of time for the animals! I have my own pets at home so I have a general understanding of what is needed and I have cared for a variety of pets. I do prefer to board at clients homes, where animals are in their own homes and more likely to be comfortable. When in a clients home, I absolutely treat the space and pets as if it was my own. As a pet owner myself, I know how it is always worrying about if your pets are safe and being cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind by by providing reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while caring for your home. I am always happy to communicate, give updates, and answer any questions so please feel free to reach out if you’d like to know more!

Tresalyn was absolutely wonderful! She was available and willing very last minute. Her communication was clear and kept me updated on her arrival. She asked questions and was super sweet to Cynder. Pictures came regularly and she even treated Cynder to a Pup Cup after asking me if she had ever had one! 😁 I asked her to put sheets in the wash and she went ahead and made the bed. House was perfectly kept and I would absolutely have Tresalyn come again!
