Kalliah did an amazing job with our pups while we were away. She would send photos and updates daily which was excellent. We highly recommend her services.

My wife and I found Sarah on Rover because we were planning a destination wedding with all of our friends and family. All the people we usually ask to watch our dog, our cat, or take care of our house would be joining us for 10 days in another country. Understandably, we were apprehensive about entrusting all that to a person we did not know. When we connected with Sarah, a few months before, we chatted and discussed organizing a meet and greet and then having Sarah do some regular dog walks in the weeks leading up to the event. At every step of the way, Sarah was prompt, communicative, friendly, honest, and above all, incredibly caring and loving to our animals. Before we left, Sarah checked in once more with a detailed review of all the logistics we had discussed for the stay. Sarah arrived as planned and spent 10 days taking the best care of our dog Mia, our cat Tar, and looking after our entire house. She stayed at the house overnight, took Mia for walks each day, played with Mia in the yard, and spent some quality comfort time in the house with both Mia and Tar. She updated us daily with pictures of the animals as well as information about the day’s activities and how the animals were doing. We were always fully comfortable that our house and animals were in the best of hands. We will continue to hire Sarah in the future for house sitting and pet care needs and give her the highest recommendation.

Meaghon was the best! She went above and beyond to care for all of our pets and our home while we were away for the holidays. She communicated often and sent us a lot of pictures. She made sure our pets had lots of love and attention while we were gone. We were so lucky to find her and would highly recommend her to anyone!

We left our dogs for a week long trip and booked Lindsey for house sitting/drop in visits. She went above and beyond to care for our boys doing more visits than we asked, taking them on walks and providing them daily stimulation while we were gone. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and was very respectful of our home. I would highly recommend!

Lila was a great sitter for Minnie. My very anxious “baby” took to Lila very quickly and that is not her norm, so I felt very comfortable leaving them together. Lila communicated and kept in touch well. She was very respectful of my home and even left a cute doggie thank you note. Minnie seemed to love her and I know this because often when I get home Minnie us sitting by the door waiting. She was sleeping in the living room and much calmer than my usual returns. I recommend Lila as responsive, responsible, and respectful. Thank you!!!

This was our first Rover experience and Kayla was terrific! She updated us daily with pictures and comments of Gracie while we were away for the week. During our meet and greet she was very professional and kind with us and Gracie. We 100% recommend her and will be contacting her again if we go away. She did a great job taking care of our pooch!

About: I’ve had several pets all growing up, ranging from turtles, to birds, to dogs! I have had 5+ dogs that I’ve owned throughout my life! My friends and family go to me to walk/take care of their pets and/or give them advice about them. I am currently free during all times of the day! I have open availability for all week days, preferably in the mornings and or afternoons! I will walk your dog for however long you need me to. I have no problem with long walks and lots of exercise as I’m usually in the gym about 5 days a week, leading me to be pretty fit and diligent for things that require high stamina. I will make sure your pet uses the bathroom, gets all its energy out, and is happy!

Kaylie came and sat with my two girls overnight last week. She sent me pictures when she arrived. Let me know everything was OK. When I got home, the girls were healthy and happy to see me and you can’t ask for anything more than that! Thank you so much, Kaylie, I’ll look for you next time I have to go away!

About: Hi there!😊 My name is Sarah and I currently reside in Rutland MA. Although I am brand new to this app, I am very excited and looking forward to meeting your pets, and sharing this experience with them! My personal experience in caring for dogs has been pet sitting/walking for family, friends, and coworkers. I have also worked in doggy daycare, and so I am very comfortable with many different types, sizes and breeds of dogs. I understand every dog is different, and unique in there own ways. So my priority is making sure your pets needs are met, with the attention, care and love they deserve. I am working part time but I am available every weekday from 10:30am 2pm. Also, 5pm-7pm. I am available all day Saturday and Sunday afternoons. As a dedicated pet sitter, I always start by showering your pets with affection! Following this warm greeting, I tailor our time together to meet their needs, whether that involves taking them outside or going for a walk. Upon our return, I can either feed them or engage in some fun playtime, depending on the schedule and your pet’s preferences. I pride myself on being flexible and collaborative, so I'm here to work with you to ensure that your furry companions receive the exceptional care they deserve!

Kayla took care of my two pups while we were away for a long weekend. She wasn’t fazed by my grumpy old guy…. She just rolled with his moods and communicated to us daily. Made it a bit easier to leave my babies home while we were away.

Julisa was wonderful - she stayed in frequent contact, sent pictures and, when our rascal of a dog breached the fence and ran off, she immediately got on the phone with me and we tracked him down at a neighbor’s house. I know what a terrible feeling that is when watching someone else’s furry babies and Julisa handled it so well.

About: I like to watch it’s me or the dog every night. And my cat from hell. I’m interested in getting my dog training certificate in the nearest future. My cat brings me such joy. He is a 16 year old black cat and such a good boy! He can even go on walks with us. I work for the Worcester Public schools and have all school vacations off. I am able to come and do house calls in the evening time (4-late night) or house sit overnight on weekdays or weekends. Also during school vacations including the summer. We have an indoor house cat. He’s declawed and very friendly. We also have a fenced in area in the backyard with very high fences. There is possibility that borders could be segregated from the cat if necessary. We are in a good neighborhood for walking and very near some good trails.

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I've always been a very empathetic person and just love to wave and say hi to dogs going by. I've had dogs of all sizes. My most recent is experience with Chihuahuas. I just love them! I've raised 2 dogs from 8 weeks old. I love all stages of a dogs life, from puppy to senior. I also have experience with senior dogs who need special care and medication. I'm currently working for myself, so I have plenty of time to spend playing, caring, loving and walking with your pets. I'm available M-F 9-6 pm. I like to make sure the pet is comfortable. I want the pet to feel at home with me. The least amount of change from the pets daily activities are important for the pet to feel safe and happy.

This was my first time using Kalliah (and Rover) and I was very happy. Kalliah provided regular updates and photos and seemed like she not only did the necessities for my dogs, but really enjoyed spending time with them as well. I was very happy!
