“Elizabeth was fantastic with our boys. We (boys included) knew as soon as we met her, she was a perfect fit. This was our first time using Rover but Elizabeth really put our mind at ease. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Christian continues to be my "go to" for prompt, kind and affectionate attention and walks for Lucy Dog at lunchtime when I am at work. Christian takes unprompted and quick action when unexpected situations arise. He is intuitive, mature and responsive, and he genuinely cares for my dog. I highly recommend Christian without reservation.”
“Hailly was wonderful! Respectful of our requests, detailed, timely, and sent pictures and updates every day. Was very mindful of our cat’s moods and picked up on the fact that he was a little nervous at first, but you could see he quickly started becoming comfortable each visit through the pictures. We would certainly choose her again. Thank you, Hailly! :)”
“We really like Alicia! Alicia is very responsive and easy to work with. They sent us a report after the visit with a video of our kitties and took care of everything we requested. We’ve already booked Alicia for house sitting next!”
“Maria had drop-in visits to care for our 2 senior cats while we were away for the weekend, including giving one of the cats an oral medication. She was communicative, prompt, sent detailed updates and lots of photos! My shy cat who takes time to warm up to people didn’t go into deep hiding as she has done in the past with other pet-sitters. It was lovely to go away and know our cats were in good hands.”
“Corey was very communicative, prompt, and flexible which we really appreciated. Our cat seemed to warm to her very quickly! Would recommend and hire again! Thanks Corey :)”
“Kayla has been taking care of our animals for more than 3 years now and we have had nothing but great experiences with her. We are grateful for all the great care and the attention to our home! She's the best!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of various kinds since I was 10. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. Currently I work on a 10 month contract. Therefore I have summer off so I have plenty of time to provide pet care to those in need of such services. I am a very trustworthy person who has tremendous respect for other people’s property and belongings. I especially respect pets with their needs and desires.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and even bunnies! I’ve taken care of young animals and senior pets. From calm to rowdy and energetic, I’m always here for the experience! I love animals of all kind, and I am excited to take care of your pets next! I’m pretty much available whenever I’m needed. I’m currently only working part time, so I have plenty of time to hang with your pets!! I’m also available for ANY holidays. When caring for your pet in your home, I can adjust to any schedule/routine and follow it exactly. Pets can get stressed if their routine changes, so I’m just here to ensure their time away from you is as comfortable and easy (and fun) as possible. When caring for a pet in my home, I have a big backyard to run and play on a quiet street. I do have a couple cats so as long as your baby is okay with cats, they’re okay with it too!
“Ariana took great care of Zeus and I'll definitely book again. I scheduled 8 drop in times and she was on schedule for all of them. This was my 1st experience with Rover.com.and I was skeptical. This experience with Ariana has put me at ease when I need the extra support.”
“Dianna was so great with my nervous pup Auggie. She was super responsive leading up to and during his stay with her and her family and I knew I was leaving him with someone knowledgeable, kind, and trustworthy. My dog can be very nervous with new people and rarely has to stay away from me, and Dianna was so helpful and knew exactly what to do with my nervous boy (and spoiled him while he was there). I would highly recommend her services and would definitely trust her to watch Auggie again next time we’re in the area and need doggie care!”
About: Hello! I recently moved here from Maryland. After losing our pup in 2023, we decided to wait a bit and last year, added two new fur babies to our house. I really missed that energy in the house. I have had pets my entire life & love my fur babies. I have 3 biological children & 3 step and all of them are animal lovers too :) Having just relocated, I have a pretty flexible schedule and am very open to helping with your needs for your fur baby. I do work a full day on Tuesdays and partial day on Wednesday’s. I will be happy to follow your instructions and schedule for your pet in your home or during walks. I am very courteous of others property and would treat your Home and pet as if they were my own, if not better.
“Peggy did a great job caring for our cat while we were on vacation for a week. She took daily pictures and gave us small status updates to reassure us that our cat was doing fine in our absence. We worry about her because we work from home so she’s used to constant company, and knowing that Peggy was dropping by to give her some love, playtime, and her food was wonderful!”
