1. Robin B.
“Robin made friends with our dogs immediately and they loved her! I think they were looking for her even after we got home. She made sure they didn't get too hot in this 90+ degree heat by making sure they had plenty of water and letting them in before it got late. Great experience!”

“Jenn was so wonderful with our 3 fur babies during the meet & greet at our home! I really appreciate that she took the time to come over and meet with us and she is such a sweet soul who I felt like I’ve known for years, even though I just met her. I felt very comfortable and confident having her in our home and looking after our babies. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“She was great! This was my first time using rover so I wasn't sure what to expect! She came to meet my kitten before and was super sweet and you could really tell she cared about animals! She sent me so many photos while I was on vacation and texted me updates! She made me feel like my kitten was being taken care of and I would definetly book again with her! 10/10 experience!”

“Isabella was awesome with our two cats! We came home to two very happy cats after three days of receiving regular updates and multiple photos a day. She's very attentive and detail-oriented. We will definitely be calling her on a regular basis. Thank you Isabella!”
9. Hannah Y.
“Hello! Hannah is my niece, she lived with us for a while and would help take care of our dogs and cats. She is so good with animals. She would take our dogs to the park, helped bathe them, and would even let the sleep with her at night. I really think they preferred her over everyone in the house lol. She is kind, compassionate, and just naturally has a care givers heart. She has helped us many times not only with our animals, but also my son (her little cousin). She is the first person I think of when it comes to our pups needing a sitter.”

About: Hello! My name is Wes, and I love dogs. All kinds of dogs, really. I can handle large, strong dogs without problem as long as me and the dog are safe. I have walked dogs thousands of times in many situations. I love to get out and exercise, might as well take a buddy and help out my neighbors! I am a teacher. I am available after 5pm on many weekdays ,and I have general availability all day on most weekends. My schedule is generally open in the summer. I love animals, and I realize that maintaining the consistency of your routines and following your instructions is very important. I will treat your home and your pets with respect!
13. Makayla I.
“I realized Makayla was an ideal match for us early on in the pet introduction. I have two dogs who immediately took to Makayla and she quickly demonstrated that she is very skilled with dog care and with understanding their needs. Makayla handled my large & sometimes difficult dog with great ease and both dogs immediately enjoyed her company.”
14. Jade M.
“Jade was an absolute sweetheart. Our sitter had to cancel late the night before and she was able to cover that next day. She answered very quickly and on short notice. She did everything I asked her to, and hope she enjoyed staying in our home for the few hours she did. I know our dog loved having the company.”
15. Feleshia D.
“she did an amazing job taking care of our pups while we were on vacation she kept everything tidy and followed all our care instructions! we will definitely rebook when we need her!”
16. Amanda W.
“Amanda is great with my three dogs. She does overnights at my house and I can completely trust her with my pets in my home. She is the sweetest to my fur babies and she is so sweet to send me updates and pictures while I’m away. Amanda also cleans during her stay so that I come home to a clean home. There isn’t enough room for me to write all the things I love about her. But definitely give her a shot! She’s amazing!🫶🏼🤟🏼”
17. Falisia M.
“I met Falisia in 2020 and in all the time I've known her she's been one of the most caring and kind animal parents I've ever known. Her love for our furry friends knows no bounds! She'll do anything to make sure a dog or cat is happy and well taken care of.”
18. Emily C.
About: I have sat for whole farms, and single pet households. Peacocks, chickens, goats, dogs, cats, raccoons, fish, birds, and horses! Baths, meds, walks and, special needs! I am currently pet sitting full time, and I love playing with the dogs, cats, or whatever animal companions you may have! I also clean! I have a huge yard that I walk my dog in! And a peaceful neighborhood to walk her in, and I keep a bed for her in all hangout areas where we stay the most on the house.
19. Katherine S.
About: I've been a dog and cat lover ever since I can remember. When I was little I wanted to be a veterinarian, so when I was old enough I would volunteer at shelters and at the local veterinary clinic every chance I got. Family members and friends of my family would have me watch their dog or cat every now and then and I'd always go above and beyond for them! I'm currently not working so I will be home most of the time during the week. My 12 year old daughter is very active in taking care of our puppy, Lucie, so I'm certain she would be a helping hand in taking care of any other pets that come into our home for care. I have a huge fenced in yard with plenty of room for your pups to run some energy off in, decorated with more than a dozen toys, sticks and tennis balls to keep them occupied for hours on end. I am also experienced with kennels as well, but I do not currently have any at my house so that would have to be provided by you if that's what you prefer. I have lots of experience with animals that have separation anxiety, too. Also, I do have a female chestnut colored Labrador retriever who is just under a year old and still very much has that puppy mentality and is extremely energetic.
