Michelle was wonderful! She dropped in to feed & care for my Kitty while I was out of town for 10 days. First time I’ve left him alone with a “stranger” but he came out from hiding and took to her from day one! That’s never happened even with family members he has seen previously! Loved the daily message and photos. I highly recommend Michelle. She can be trusted to care for your special pet and goes above & beyond to report potential concerns with the house/property too ! She will definitely be my first choice for future trips!

Mariah is really great. I'm really glad I found out about Rover and about Mariah. It makes it easy for me to take fun little trips without having to worry about my pet while I'm gone.

Ashlee was a great sitter for us! Our dog is unfortunately not very quick to warm up to people, but she was super patient and gave it her all to form a bond with him, even spending extra time with him beyond what I had booked!

Emily did a great job with Felix. We had a bathroom renovation and there were terrible storms while we were gone and she was so helpful in making sure our boy was safe. She even sent us update pictures of our bathroom. She gave felix medicine and played with him and he was clearly well taken care of

Alyssa took great care of our 13-year old cat while we were away. She sent pictures daily and our normally reluctant cat took to her right away. We will definitely book Alyssa again the next time we need a sitter.

About: Ive always known my love for animals since I was very little, especially dogs. I’ve volunteered at a dog shelter a few years ago and loved every minute of it. Animals are misunderstood and some haven’t experienced real love from a human. I’ve worked with puppies to older dogs, big and small. Anything from walking, bathing and some commands I was able to teach. I’m no expert though. I do have one dog of my own and I’m currently fostering for Heartland Rescue to get more hands on. I want to take this to the next level and now care for dogs full time if possible. As I continue this, I will open up more services. You’re pet will feel loved by me even when you're away, as if you never left. I do have a third shift job as well so my schedule at the moment is limited but I make sure to keep it up to date every week. If you are unsure, feel free to ask! The same love, joy, and patience that you show to your pet is the same that I will do. I will also keep the same routine you have for your pet if that is what you would like.

About: I (Amelia) have taken care of my own dogs since I was seven and consider it a privilege and an honor to care for your pets when you need to be away. As a huge animal lover, I have a bachelor's degree in Animal Science and have previously worked at a kennel bathing and grooming dogs and at a veterinarian as a technician/assistant. I also have some experience with dog training and have trained my own dog from being an unruly rescue to a well-behaved house dog. I am willing to care for whatever pets a client has and love to learn new things and expand my knowledge of pet care. I am always learning more about dog training and pet care and will bring that knowledge into my care for your pets. I have a flexible schedule and love walking dogs and getting outdoor exercise and am looking to add some more dog-walking and drop-in visits to my schedule. I take great precautions to make sure all dogs in my care are safe. I will frequently double-leash or use a harness with a collar to prevent any escapes while dog walking. I take care to keep dogs away from strange dogs and anticipate and prevent any dangers before they happen.

About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals since the age of 13. I have had 3 dogs of my own. One of them having special needs who needed extra loving. My neighbors and family members have counted on me to care for their animals while they were away. I am very open minded when it comes to all types of dogs and I love each of them as if they were my own. Pet care for me is especially easy and convenient because although Im currently working full-time (6:30am-2:30pm) I work about a mile down the road so i have time to come home for lunch and let your pets out! Also Saturdays and Sundays I am free day to watch after your pup! Your pets will be taken out around every 4 hours each day. After work I go on daily walks for about a half hour so it would be a perfect time to take your pup out for a walk! I also love about 3 minutes away from our town dog park! Also, I usually answer any calls or messages pretty quick, my job also allows me to be able to respond quickly to anything you might need.

About: I have over three years of experience providing pet walking and house-sitting services, caring for a wide range of animals with reliability and compassion. I am passionate about working with pets of all kinds and committed to ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being. I have two dogs of my own that I care for on a daily basis, giving me hands-on experience in providing consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize the comfort, routine, and well-being of each animal. For dog walking, I ensure they get regular, safe, and stimulating walks based on their energy level and needs. For pet sitting, I follow any feeding, medication, and exercise schedules provided and make sure they have plenty of companionship and attention. Additionally, I keep the home clean and provide regular updates to the owner. My goal is to make the pet feel comfortable and cared for while maintaining the owner’s peace of mind.

Kennedy was incredibly accommodating and communicative during a week that had some unexpected logistical hurdles. Even with a delay in house access on my end, she made sure my three cats were well-cared for, spending extra time with them once she could get inside. The photo updates were great and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Emily did a really wonderful job with Panther - he is extremely wary of strangers, so the fact that he evidently warmed up to Emily by the end of the two weeks speaks volumes. She also went above and beyond, grabbing the mail and running the vacuum, which we didn't expect, but definitely appreciate.

Mariah is the absolute best sitter! It was my first time trusting someone besides family to watch my pup but after our first meet and greet I knew she was going to be a great fit. She is very communicative and does everything in her power to make sure my boy is taken care of. I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in a new sitter!

Hanling took excellent care of our kitty! She came in advance to meet him and get instructions in person, and spent lots of time playing and cuddling with him on each visit so he wouldn't be too lonely while we were gone. She also sent us lots of pictures of him. We will definitely call her the next time we need a pet sitter.
