Brittany was so easy and helpful to work with. She was super friendly and my reserved cat was happy to see her. I loved and pictures and communication while I was away. It really gave me a piece of mind that my kitty was safe and happy. This was my first time using Rover and I am very glad I chose to go with Brittany. I will use her again int he future!

Ashley did a fantastic job with our pups! She even went the extra mile and did some fun training exercises with them on a quick drop in. Our dogs love her!

About: I took care of my neighbor’s three dogs from 15-20 until I had to move away to college. I worked at a local boarding facility for several months with cats and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary practice for 4 years and interact with cats and dogs every day! I also have experience housesitting and dogsitting for family and friends the last few years as well. I have experience house sitting and caring for cats as well. This included checking up on the cats, caring for any medical issues, feeding and changing/checking the cat litter. I am a current student home for the summer! I’m currently work nights 1-3 times a week to weekends. I take care of pets every day in my profession. I will walk my dogs after work often, sometimes twice daily if I go into work late that day or get off early. I have a fenced in yard at home. I feed my dogs twice a day and take them for walks daily. I also do different activities like taking them to dog parks and training classes.

Mariahn did an incredible job watching my two dogs while I was on vacation. One of my dogs is very shy and it takes her a long time to warm up to people. I was so worried about leaving her while I was on vacation. She immediately bonded with Mariahn at the meet and greet which I think says a lot about a person. She is very kind, professional and knowledgeable when it comes to animal behavior. She gave me such peace of mind while I was away knowing my dogs were safe and happy. I would highly recommend hiring her as a pet sitter.

Drew was very attentive with my fur babies!! She followed all instructions and was able to adjust when my dog ran to other dogs. She was able to remain calm and wrangle them back in the house. Her communication was superb and I never had to worry about getting ahold of her. 10/10 would recommend!

About: I’ll provide take their pet(s) on a 30 minute walk. Allow their pet(s) to get enough exercise. Provide food and water. I’ll also bathe their pet(s) if needed. I have open availability on weekends and sometimes during the weekdays. I really don’t have any special skills. I’m willing to get to know more about your pet(s). The only pet care experience that I have is from learning things about my own pet. I haven’t really pet sat in a while. I’m willing to learn more by pet sitting your pet(s). I look forward to meeting your pet(s) so that I can gain more experience. I understand that all dogs are not all the same which is why I would love to get more experience. It would help me learn more about your pet(s) and it’s needs.

About: Hi!! I have been around and cared for animals my entire life. I’ve had 3 dogs and 2 cats during my life, starting from when I was 6 years old. Currently, I have a 3 year old pit mix and a 10 year old orange kitty. All of my pets have been rescues! I’ve helped care for the pets of many family members and friends, and I also worked at an animal shelter where I walked dogs for 7+ hours a day. I currently work part-time, so I am pretty flexible! I’m usually unavailable on Mondays and Thursdays, except in the early morning (6-8am). Wednesdays I am available 6-9am and after 4pm usually, but can be flexible if needed. I’m usually open all day Monday-Sunday. My schedule does vary, but I make my own schedule and know my work days about a month in advance! I’m unfortunately unable to care for pets in my home due to not living on my own and not having a fenced in yard, but I can take care of your fur babies in your home however you need!
