2. Jennah M.

“Jennah is great! Very good with our crazy puppy. She even works on some training with him. Our puppy is very excited to have weekly visits from Jennah.”


3. Margaret P.

“Margaret is very reliable. She showed up every day like clockwork, fed my cat, gave her her medication, and played with her. She also sent me plenty of pictures for peace of mind. I'm very relieved that I found such a reliable sitter, and would definitely use her again in the future.”


4. Kilie A.

“Kilie did a fantastic job taking care of our two boys (cats)! She was attentive to our instructions, careful to make sure they got what they needed, and communicated with us how each visit went. We did a meet and greet where she introduced herself to the boys and then took care to make sure they were treated very well! Would highly recommend hiring Kilie!”




5. Georgianne C.

“Georgianne was absolutely phenomenal! She communicated very well and kept us in the loop with every visit she made! Our dog loved her and we will absolutely be using her again! Highly recommend to anyone who’s looking for a kind person who’s very good with your fur babies!”


6. Christopher P.
“Hi my name is Leah Pawlewicz. I have two 14 year old dogs who I treat as my babies. Chris is the only person I trust to care for my dogs. He has come to my house multiple times to take them outside, feed them and play with them. He has stayed at my house for week periods to dog sit them also. Chris makes me feel comfortable to travel. He send updates and pictures. I would recommend him to anyone. He is kind and loving to all types of dogs.”


7. Claire W.
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds for the last 15 years, and began working with dogs 4 years ago when I raised and trained my own. Since getting a dog I have cared for and pet sat for many of my family friend’s and neighbor’s dogs and cats. I know how to handle medically complex pets and how to properly administer medications. I will love and care for your pets as if they were my own and ensure that they are happy and healthy whenever they are in my care! I am in my first semester of grad school and currently have a very easy schedule, so I have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available in the mornings from 6-11 and in the afternoons most days from 4 pm onwards. I have a very friendly and well-trained dog that can help accompany your pup on walks and influence their calm with hers (she only accompanies me on walks when requested). I will ensure that your pet has a fun and safe time, getting to go out for a walk or potty/play break.


8. Hayley R.

“Hayley did an excellent job with our two pets. She did well to ask the right questions to ensure she had everything covered. She also gave regular updates for the drop ins and maintained great communication through the entire process.”


9. Darian H.
“Darian would be my first pick when deciding who to watch my dog and cat. She has two cats of her own who she adores more than anything. When she comes to my house she always offers to assist in taking my dog out for a walk. As well as, whenever I go away I know I can count on Darian to watch my animals and they will be well cared for. She always sends pictures of them to make sure you know they’re okay. Overall, when Darian tends to animals you know they’re getting the best care possible,”




10. Rachel Z.
“I've known Rachel basically my entire life, she's always loved all animals probably because she grew up with many animals including, but not limited to dogs and cats. She is the type of person you can depend on and trust with your pets. She would be a great match for your pup.”


11. Meghan R.

“Meghan handled the visits and my cats excellently. I came home to two contented cats and knowing I was coming back at the end of the evening, Meghan cleaned up so I wouldn't have to. What a wonderful surprise. I was so grateful. I will ask her again to visit my cats.”


12. Kaleigh J.

“Kal took excellent care of our cat Oliver while we were out of town. They were extremely prompt with visits and communications, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and even accommodated an extra visit when our flight home was cancelled. They went above and beyond in caring for Oliver, and he was completely comfortable with them. We highly recommend Kal and will be requesting their cat sitting help again!”


13. Kendra P.

“Kendra did a great job caring for our dog and communicating with us. This allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying about our dog. We will definitely book with her again!”


14. August S.

“Would recommend August to anyone looking for help with their pets. They are caring and professional and can work with those "tricky" pets. One of our dogs is more skittish when meeting new people and they were able to make him feel comfortable. They are also very communicative and provide lots of information so you know your pets are in good hands”


15. Rachel L.

“Rachel was very kind and attentive to my dog & I felt very comfortable having her check-in on him from the first day they met. She was always been very prompt and reliable.”


16. Jimmy S.
“My dog, Bailey loves it when Jimmy Shah comes to feed and walk her! Bailey can be a challenge for non-family members because she is a blind older dog (15 years old) but Jimmy handles her with care and respect.”


17. Hannah M.

“Hannah was great! Communicated with me well. The dogs seemed very happy in the photos she sent and when I got home from work. Will definitely rebook”


18. Bri O.

“Great pet sitter, appreciated all the communication!”


19. Amber H.

“Amber did two drop in visits with my french bulldog puppy while I was out of town for the day. As a new puppy mom I was nervous and a first-time user of the Rover app. Amber put my mind totally at ease while being away. She kept me updated with their progress and sent pictures throughout her drop ins! My puppy took a quick liking to her and we look forward to booking her again in the future!”


20. Luis W.

“Luis was a great help for us during the holiday season. His notes showed a lot of dedication and care for our dog. He took care of our dog during a recovery period after a stomach issue. Luis was careful to take care of correct time for the medicine and took our dog to long walks. Super recommended!”
