Konnie is just incredible. Our golden fell in love with her immediately and we felt so comfortable leaving our sweet girl with her. She kept us up to date on what was happening and even when our poor girl had an upset tummy still loved her:) Konnie is our go to from now on.

Gabrielle was great with communication. Bruce and Dori were as relaxed as ever when I got home which means they had a good experience with Gabrielle as well. I will definitely try and book her again next time I travel.

This was my first experience with Rover and Laura was absolutely the best I could ask for!!! My dogs are seniors and can require some additional attention. Laura was so patient, kind and kept me up to speed on how things were going at the house! Laura is truly a professional and an animal lover!! I will definitely request Laura for my next getaway! Thank you Laura for making me feel like my boys were well taken care of and loved!!

Cassandra was a great cat and house sitter. She was communicative, sent us great pictures and videos, kept the house clean and tidy, and followed instructions for Kitty’s care. Kitty seemed well taken care of and happy. We will definitely reach out to Cassandra for our future travels. Thank you, Cassandra!

Allie was an excellent sitter for my 2 year old German Shepherd Dog Hero! She was attentive to his needs, took him on regular walks multiple times a day, walked him to the Dog park down the road and let him run and play, and sent me regular updates and photos of their time together. Allie is detail oriented and will follow instructions to the letter. Her and Hero played so hard while she dog/house sat with one of his favorite toys that the squeaker broke out of it and she went out of her way to buy him a close replacement for it as well as a bag of treats which she absolutely didnt have to do but Hero and I appreciated very much! I would highly recommend Allie's services to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I was uneasy at first having a stranger stay at my home to watch my dog, but after seeing how comfortable Hero was around her within minutes of meeting her it gave me some peace of mind and Allie is absolutely worthy of trust and your business. Thanks for all you did for Hero and I Allie and I wish you nothing but the best I'll definitely be in contact next time I need someone to help with Hero!

Kyla was awesome and my dogs absolutely loved her! She spoiled the heck out of them - in the best way, and made sure they were well taken care of while I was out of town. Would 100% recommend and use her again.

Elizabeth was a great pup sitter for Jazz and Sully, our 2 rescued Golden Retrievers. She kept us informed and sent photos, and during the meet and greet, we felt very comfortable leaving our "kids" and our home in her care. She left our house nice and clean, having done her dishes and vacuumed, and even changed and washed the bedding from the guest room where she slept. I recommend her highly and will definitely call her for future needs.

WOW..... Apollo had so much fun staying with Julie and her dog Dante. We received several text messages and pictures from Julie. I felt so comfortable leaving Apollo while we were away in DC over the weekend. He was happy to see us upon our return, but I think he now misses Dante his new buddy. I highly recommend Julie for your next dog sitting.

Jasmin is a dream pet sitter. She took excellent care of our pups and was extremely courteous and respectful staying in our house, helping out in various ways. You can tell how much she loves dogs and that she is a kind and thoughtful person. There is no question we will book with her again if she is available but I worry she will quickly become the most popular pet sitter on Rover.

About: I’m very attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, or relaxing on the couch, I adapt to what makes them happiest. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules carefully. I do work a FT job during the week but my schedule is somewhat flexible depending on the situation. Weekends are very flexible - as long as I don’t have a prior commitment. I’m an experienced dog sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I’ve cared for many dogs for friends, family, and repeat clients and recently joined Rover to expand my services. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
