Ashley was super communicative about my cat and sent photos every time she visited. She was reliable, friendly, and seemed to take a genuine interest in my not very friendly cat. I would definitely ask her to look after my pet again!

Mia was an excellent pet sitter for our dog. She was always on time and gave us updates/pictures of him. If we ever need a sitter in the future she is the one I would go back to!

Just got home and told everybody hello- gave and recieved kisses all around. All looks good-thank you for bringing in our packages too. Both packages came early, so thank very much. Everyone loved having you here with them and I appreciate your extra efforts today since we were coming in late. We’ll see you again next month.

Justine was great with our dogs, visited them 3 times a day at varying hours. Flexible and we didn't have to worry about them when we were out of town for a weekend. Pups were happy and well taken care, Justine was very prompt with the check in times and ensured the went out, ate and were left happy until the next visit. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for drop in visits!

This was my first time using Rover, or having someone outside of the family take care of Tucker. Emily was great. During the meet and greet before the drop in visits, Emily had a great mannerism in greeting Tucker. With her experience, she knew what questions to ask in preparation for providing care. The updates and photos from the drop in visits reassured me that Tucker was in good hands.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats all my life. Since I was 16, family and friends have trusted me to care for their fur-babies while they are away, and I have loved every second of it! I am very much an animal person, and I pride myself in being dependable and loving to every single pet I meet. I work as an elementary school teacher, which gives me plenty of afternoon time to care for your babies! I am available after 3pm all weekdays during the school year, and during the summer I'm even more flexible. During the summer, I am available after 8am throughout the day to do drop-ins. On the weekends, I am available in the morning and afternoon. In your home, I am able to care for your babies in any way they need. I will follow the directions you set, and I am flexible to your pet's specific needs.

Haley did an excellent job! I was a little nervous when we got home late that our senior dog would be anxiously pacing the house. He does not like changes in his routine. Alvin was happily sleeping in the kitchen when we got home! She apparently was able to keep him calm, give him his medications, and treat him just like we were here.

Keely was amazing! She took such great care of our 14 year diabetic cat, checking glucose levels and giving insulin. She also fed our two outdoor kitties. She sent daily photos and updates multiple times per day and followed all directions. She went well beyond what a typical pet sitter would do. We were able to enjoy our trip and relax knowing our pets were in great hands! She truly gave us a sense of security. I hope to use Keely again in the near future and highly recommend her if you need care for your furry family members!
