Great experience. This was my first time using Rover and my puppy’s first time being away from me. I got pictures of him everyday to know he was ok and it looked like he had a great and very comfortable time. I will definitely book again if I have to go out of town again. Very nice and caring with the dogs.

Tong has been an amazing sitter for our pets, Pisi and Gunner. She took them on regular walks, kept them engaged with fun activities, and always sent us frequent photo and video updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Pisi even became best friends with her dog, Lu Lu, and it was clear they all had a wonderful time together. Our pets were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved being with her. We would love book Tong again and highly recommend her!

Alexis was an amazing last minute dog sitter after my prior plans with another sitter fell through. Moose was immediately happy to see her and ready to go spend the weekend his weekend away from home. Got daily updates/pics annd always knew he was getting plenty of love/attention.

The family took such great care of Simba! He was so happy playing with the other dogs. Erica sent lots of pictures, and it was clear that a lot of quality time was put in. I felt like Simba was with an extended family rather than strangers. I highly recommend them and will definitely be booking with them all the time!

About: Genuine love for pets. I naturally care for their well-being and love the affection I get from all animals. My family and I have 5 dogs of our own and recently we were adopted by our newly stray cat, Carey. We have been fostering dogs since Thanksgiving of 2017 and we have learned a lot how all pets deserve second chances and how each one of them heals at their own time. My dog walks are tailored to your pet needs, I will focus on the safety of your pet and myself during my service. You can trust that your pet will always be in loving and caring hands. Dog walking would be my primary activity next to my English classes. I will work with you to make sure that your pets needs are met in a timely manner. At home we have a fenced backyard and at my customers' homes I make sure that safety is a priority during my service. That means that I would make sure that your pet is properly secured and that is happy while we are together.

Claudia was very welcoming and understanding. She did an amazing job taking care of Poh! She was very attentive and caring, and even took the time to brush him and clean his bed, which I really appreciated. Poh looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I got back. She also took the request last minute, which made everything so much easier and less stressful. I would definitely trust Claudia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring for their pets.❤️

Michelle is THE BEST!!! I found Michelle last minute in a panic and she was an absolute lifesaver! This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous. She was soooo incredibly patient with me as I kept going back and forth deciding if I would take them with me or just give myself a break and leave them with her. I am so glad I made the decision to leave my dogs with Michelle. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Michelle checked in multiple times a day with photos and updates. She kept my dogs an extra day when I needed it at the last minute, squeezing them in before another client. She also took the time to educate me on some behavioral things I could work on with one of my dogs. Michelle truly went above and beyond from the start, up until the moment she dropped off my babies. She clearly loves what she does and it shows in every way. My dogs are in great hands with her and she is now my permanent go-to sitter. I HIGHLY recommend Michelle without hesitation!

Nicole and her husband took care of our corgi Gilly for a week, and she was very responsive and sent several photos of walks and hanging out at home. After we took Gilly home, he was super tired because he's been playing with their dog Benji all week. It seems like he had a great time! Highly recommend Nicole!
