“Eryn was so nice and our energetic dog instantly liked her. She was understanding and great with our dog’s leash reactivity and even gave her some Thanksgiving turkey while we were out of town over the holiday. Highly recommend!”

“Julissa was amazing. She house/petsit for Thanksgiving week and our dogs Ramsey and Waldo adored her. She went above and beyond of what we asked of her, was in constant communication, and completely trustworthy. We will look forward to hiring Julissa again. Thank you so much for your hard and amazing work!”

“Georgia was great during her 32-day house and pet-sitting stay. I can't recommend her enough. We felt completely at ease leaving our home and dogs in her care. She's trustworthy, communicates well, and clearly knows what she's doing with pets. Our dogs are usually off their game after we've been away for a few days, but they seemed totally normal when we got back. The house was well taken care of and exactly as we left it. We'll definitely book Georgia again and suggest you do the same if you get the chance.”

“Alissa was a real pleasure. We have a brand new 2yo rescue dog, Pixie, who is really sweet but can be a bit rambunctious and not 100% house trained. We needed to have someone come to our house who could follow our training regimen. None of our friends and neighbors were available. This was our first experience with Rover and Alissa was a gem. She was friendly, upbeat and enthusiastic about meeting and spending the weekend at our house with Pixie. Pixie is on heartworm meds and Alissa was on top of everything. She followed our training directions exactly and she send us great pictures and video clip. Not only was she a great dog sitter, our house was also tidy and she made sure to even take out the trash before we came home. It was a great first Rover experience and we will definitely invite Alissa back next time we need a buddy for our Pixie.”

“Shayla is fantastic!!! Our cat is pretty nervous with strangers, and she loved Shayla right away!! Shayla sent us so many adorable pictures and responded really quickly to all of my questions. Shayla is just a really kind, smart & professional person who’s so passionate about caring for pets, and I’m thrilled to hire her again soon as our go-to cat sitter!!”

“Reichel was great! Offered to come over before the actual booked weekend so she could meet my dog and get a better idea of her care. She followed up with me throughout the weekend and sent pics of my dog. I felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I will reach out to Reichel in the future!”

“Debbie was absolutely incredible with my 2.5 year old pit mix Brooks. He took to them almost instantly at the meet and greet, and I felt 100% comfortable with them staying at my house and looking after him. Debbie kept me updated with pictures and texts and took amazing care of him. Having somebody stay in your house and look after your pet is always a little daunting, but after chatting with Debbie and her partner for 20 minutes while they got to know Brooks I had no hesitation about having Debbie stay and care for him. Debbie and her partner are really awesome people and clearly both love — and are good with — animals. Debbie will be my go-to first choice for any dog sitting I need doing in the future, without a doubt.”

“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats since I was little but didn’t start watching animals until about 2 years ago! My mother has a fur baby name Teddy and I watch him a lot. I also have my own kitten name Tallulah, before getting her I did lots of research though. I work part time! When I’m done with working I walk my neighbors dog, then I stop by my mothers and watch/ play/ walk my moms dog! I care for my pets with respect, as do I with other animals! I am patient, understanding, and friendly. I go above and beyond for pets!

I have two runs set up in the backyard, both allowing plenty of freedom. I have one dog, Digby. He is a mixed King Charles Cavalier spaniel and poodle. Digby is 6 years old and about 30lbs. He is sort of timid around other dogs but once he knows everything is safe, he loves to play! I live with my mother and my father.
