Katelyn was super responsive, let us know what was happening with our dog, and seemed to truly care about taking good care of our dog. She was timely with the scheduled drop-ins and walks and left good detail with lots of photos in the report cards. Gave me a great comfort level. Would book again!

Lila was super responsive and dependable while watching our two cats for a long weekend! Even though our shy kitties didn’t give her much face time, she made sure to stay 30 mins to let them adjust to her presence. Her daily reports were very detailed and gave us peace of mind during our time away. We’d love to rebook Lila in the future and would definitely recommend her to any pet parent ?

Devinder is very friendly and makes sure your pet gets the care they need. My dog Sylvester is being left alone in the home for the first time since COVID started and Devinder makes him feel comfortable while I'm away. Devinder is great about sending updates and photos. Definitely booking again!

Chloe was a lifesaver! We booked her for some last minute check ins before our pup stays with her next month, she drove half an hour to our new house to check on Finley and made us feel so comfortable about him staying with her next month. Finley has found a new bff!❤️

About: Hi there! I have loved animals since I was very little, I grew up around pets. I have experience in animal shelters, as well as some grooming from personal experiences with my own pets. On dog walks I can jog/run with your pet to get them in some good exercise, I love running and staying fit as well as keeping pets nice and healthy. I work from home three days a week with a flexible schedule, as well as usually being home on the weekends. Plenty of different availability I go above and beyond for my pets as well as for my clientele. I pay attention to detail, I have a good sense of my surroundings

Abby did a wonderful job with my young cat! She is very communicative throughout her visits, and always let me know when she was stopping by. Abby sent lots of pictures and visit summaries, that I really appreciated. For someone who gets anxious leaving their pet behind, Abby’s attentiveness eased any worries! Will definitely be booking Abby for all my future needs.

This was my first time using Rover services. Kyle was fantastic! My pet was well taken care of, my home was just as I left it and the communication from Kyle during my absence was perfect. Not only will I use Rover again; fingers crossed that Kyle will have openings on his schedule for me.

Bridgette was super caring and thorough when I had her let out my dog, she did everything I asked her to do. She made sure to ask questions when she was unsure about something, so she definitely has my trust. This was my first time using Rover and Bridgette made it a 10/10 experience. I just want to say thank you so much for everything!

Julia did a wonderful job taking care of Rummo while we were out of town for a few nights. She took the time to come meet him prior to our trip and had no trouble following our care instructions. She sent plenty of pictures while we were away and even spent extra time with him after their walks. I highly recommend Julia if you are in need of a reliable individual to take care of your pets. Thank you Julia!
