“This was my first time using Rover, and I must say that Lindsey was exceptional. She came to our house a few days before our trip to meet our cat. This showed a lot of care to me. She checked in each day, and provided pictures and a narrative to us about how our cat was doing. She even brought in our packages, which I was grateful for. I would highly recommend Lindsey. She took great, loving care of our cat and gave us a lot of peace of mind! Thanks Lindsey!”
“Holly was amazing and very flexible for a last-minute request when my dog coverage fell through. She did an amazing job and my dogs and cats were so glad to see her! I would highly recommend!”
“We used Rinnah for the first time to do a drop in visit and we loved her! She was very responsive when we first sent our request and was able to come over ahead of time to meet our dogs. During the check in, she confirmed in the morning and let us know when she was arriving. She took the 30 minutes to let them out and play with them, which we so appreciated since we kennel them when we are gone. Not only did she communicate with us during the visit, but she also sent us videos and pictures. I think we found our new dog sitter and will be using her more in the future. Thank you, Rinnah, for loving on our dogs!”
“Very impressed with Erica! She is timely, conscientious, and reliable. She is experienced with positive reinforcement training, which has been perfect consistency for my puppy-in-training! Will continue to book her in the future.”
“Exceptional Care and Professionalism! I had an amazing experience with Brittany! She was professional, punctual, and communicated clearly. She offered a meet and greet on her own time and has a good sense of dog behavior and how to respond. My dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. I highly recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter.”
“Jayda is great with my pups & respectful of my home. I'm excited to have her house-sit for me soon. Jasper & Lila love to spend time with her! I feel very comfortable leaving my pups in her care.”
“Alysa was fantastic and I’ve definitely found my go-to sitter when we travel. She had great communication, sent so many cute pictures and videos, and even extended the stay because we had flight delays! My little guy Ralphie took to her almost instantly and that’s not something that happens often when chihuahuas meet new people! She went over and above and I’ve already booked her for our next trip”
“Wendy was great for drop-ins to our home to spoil our doggo. Cannot thank her enough for photos and spoiling our little man. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda has watched my cat on two separate occasions now. She’s a great sitter who obviously cares a lot and has a lot of experience with animals. My kitty always seems happy and well taken care of. She’s quickly becoming my go to sitter!”
“Thanks so much for taking such good care of our dog Ashley. Appreciate your attention to detail and keeping us updated on how well Murphy was doing while we were gone!”
“Lydia was super attentive, responsive and caring. She was great with my dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, healthy, comfortable, and safe! Thank you Lydia!!”

“We had such a great experience with our pet sitter, Lucy! She took amazing care of our kitties, Dumbo and Lizzie, while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Lucy was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure our pets felt comfortable and loved. We came home to two happy animals and everything in perfect order. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind. From feeding and bathing to house sitting and walking. Beginning with my own pets to neighbors and my friend’s pets. I am currently enrolled in online college classes and am free to take care of animals whenever needed.

About: I am comfortable with and love all age and ability dogs! I grew up with dogs my whole life, and I can give your dog any special care or attention he/she needs. We have a very friendly and loving 1 year old husky mix, Nali, to keep your dog company. She is very friendly and submissive, so she does not do well with aggressive dogs. Over the past year, we've gone through extensive one-on-one training with Nali, and I've received a lot of training myself on either care or training or even just reading dogs. I work from home most days of the week, and if I have to go into the office, my partner, Ben, works from home fulltime. We have a fenced in backyard for the dogs to romp around in, and I can take them for a walk around the neighborhood or out on the trails any time. I go for runs, if your dog is very energetic and is used to that, too! Anything you need, just let me know and I am here to treat your dog like they are my own. :) I work from home three days a week, and on days I do go into the office, my partner works from home fulltime. I don't work on weekends, and our plans usually revolve around our dog, Nali, and I am so happy to include your dog in those plans. I have a fenced backyard for the dogs to run around and play together in. I also have more than enough space for you to bring your own dog's bed, kennel, etc. if that helps her/him to be more comfortable. I have a couple dog beds and plenty of dog toys to keep your own fur baby occupied, and we are more than happy to take your dog out with us on walks and hikes. :) Also, I will definitely send you photos of your pet while I'm with them!

“Although our little kitty cat was elusive and was only spotted occasionally, Drusilla still made sure to keep us up to date while we were out of town for a week. Highly recommend.”
“First time Rover user and Shannon did a great job. Did a video tour of the lay of the land, introducing the cats who all made a cameo appearance. Shannon followed up with a card on each visit, sending a picture. Was a good initial experience, will be using Shannon and Rover in the future.”
