Brooke was great! She came to meet the girls a few weeks in advance and the girls loved her right away. Poor Brooke was being tackled by them! Brooke was very responsive and kept us in the loop while we were gone with several photos. Really appreciated Brookes flexibility and willingness to meet out needs. Thanks Brooke and can’t wait to book you again.

Anne was wonderful and was willing to accommodate my very rowdy dogs last minute! This was my first time doing drop-in visits so I wasn’t sure what to expect. She sent frequent updates and photos, and even so kindly provided a longer leash for my one escape artist dog to be able to run around the yard more until my fence is fixed. Highly recommend and hope to use her in the future!

Yolena was incredibly helpful and left robust notes at the end of her visit that left me feeling sure that my baby was well-taken care of. She communicated well and even helped with mail without being asked. Would highly recommend Yolena to any pet parent!

About: Hi, I’m Kyri! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows every pup has their own personality, quirks, and favorite belly rub spot. Whether it’s long walks, cozy cuddle time, or keeping up with special routines, I make sure your dog feels loved and cared for while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can see their tail wags in real time. My goal is to give your best friend the same care and attention I give my own 😊 so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and having fun. I can comfortably board 5 dogs at once. Please check out my availability 😁 I work full-time as a CNC machinist on first shift (Monday–Friday, 7:00 am–3:30 pm), which allows me to provide pet care in the evenings and overnight. During the day, I can accommodate pets who are comfortable being crated for up to 8 hours, and I’m also happy to leave pets uncaged if they are well-behaved and safe in the home. After work, I’m available for walks, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved ❤️ with plenty of playtime in my fenced yard, walks to the nearby park, and lots of cuddles. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special care instructions, so they feel right at home. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own, making sure pets are well-fed, exercised, and given attention while also keeping the home secure and tidy. In either setting, my goal is to provide a stress-free, happy experience for both pets and their people.

About: I’ve had a few dogs over the years. I love me a senior pupper. I haven’t met a dog that doesn’t like me. Ready to meet and play with all the goodest doggos. I’m currently working part-time where I pick up shifts when people are needed so it is not consistent. Filling in the gaps with pet care is flexible and fun, of course. I will care for your pet(s) as requested and make sure they are safe and comfortable. I will also respect your home and property and will communicate with updates.

Hi Brooke, you did a wonderful job! We got back from our long trip a couple days ago and we appreciate all of your hard work! The kitties were very happy! Also, thank you for putting the trash containers behind the house and for filling the cat food in the outside cat house. We had forgot to tell you that we put the plants elsewhere and not to worry about watering them, sorry about forgetting to tell you! And we'll give you the wifi password during our next trip, if you wish to keep doing the job during our future trips. Great job, we are very grateful. I hope you had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

About: I have had dogs of my own since 1999. Before joining Rover, I dog sat for family members in my home and in theirs as my work schedule allowed. Since joining Rover, I have been pet sitting a lot more! I I completed dog behavior training while volunteering for a local pet rescue. I have a fairly open schedule at this time. While I will be doing pet care part time, most engagements should work with my schedule. With Rover, you are most likely to find me available by planning one to two months ahead. When in your home, I will strive to maintain your pet’s environment and schedule. I want your pet to be comfortable while we are together.

About: I have a great deal of passion for training dogs and horses. I've loved and cared for a multitude of different species, including a sheep! My routine is to come home, have some dinner, and then feed/play with my dog and cats. I'd love to spend time with more pets! It's imperative to me that petsitters understand individual pet body language & communicate with pet parents to ensure that every pet feels secure & comfortable.

Berke was great with our pets. We had a last minute rover change and he was so quick and willing to help watch over our boys. There were plenty of updates in both messages and photos, lots of fast communication, and he took care of my dog that needed medication. I would highly recommend him and will be happy to have him as a sitter again.

Great experience and we truly appreciated Yolena taking care of our 3 cats on such short notice! She gave great updates with photos, which put our mind at ease while we were away. She was extremely kind and followed instructions on the care we needed for each cat, and was very responsive if we had any concerns. Came home to happy cats and the house just as we had left it! Would absolutely recommend this sitter!

This was our second time booking with Mercy. She’s extremely communicative and always makes sure we know what’s going on with our boys while we are away. She gives detailed visit notes and gives us pictures. She also blows us away every time by going over and above by sweeping/mopping after the dogs, taking out the trash, and even picking up around the house while she’s there. Absolutely the best sitter we’ve ever used, and will continue to be repeat customers.
