1. Annette O.

“Annette was the perfect fit for my two pups. My bigger dog came from an abusive environment and does need time to get to know new people. With that being said, Annette went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable and came to my home to bond with him FIVE times before doing an overnight sitting. She has great energy and knows how to talk to the dogs to calm them when needed. She kept my babies for a week and I came home to happy dogs and a spotless house. I’m so grateful Rover brought us together because I was truly able to enjoy myself while out of town knowing they were safe. I will definitely be using her services in the future.”


2. Emily P.

“Emily was great! On time and communicative when I needed help at the last moment”


3. Christine L.

“Christine was lovely, and my dog took to her immediately! No hesitation at all - he immediately ran to her for kisses and pets before she had even made it through the door during our meet and greet. He was happy to snuggle with her while we were away for a weekend. She's also very responsive and sends cute photos, so you never feel too far from home.”


4. Lyfrance S.

“Lyfrance was a gem! She was timely, extremely communicative, professional, and great with our dogs! She cared for our home as if it were her own and kept us updated daily on the pups. I would work with Lyfrance 10/10 times!”


5. Sydney S.

“Sydney was beyond amazing. She kept in constant contact with us, sending lots of pictures. She gave extra snuggles and love to our babies and even ran the vacuum. We especially appreciate her patience and understanding with our newly adopted pup. Will definitely book again.”

11. Jenna C.

“Jenna is an awesome sitter. She was very accommodating to our needs, we had to postpone our drop in times just an hour before scheduled time and also came an hour late to pick pepper up and she was totally cool with it. Also I got regular updates on what pepper was doing all day. I would totally recommend her!”


12. Stephanie G.

“Awesome!! Is the only word that comes to mind. She came and done 2 meet and greet with my fur babies just to ease my mind. She did overnight house sitting for ALL 3 of my babies and did a fabulous job gaining the trust of my 2 rescues and my loving sweet boy Tyson. She was sending pictures of them playing and cuddling and loving on all of the fur babies. She kept me informed and was great with communication. She even offered/asked for light housekeeping things she could possibly help with while we were away. She went above and beyond and for that im grateful!! And will definitely be booking Again and again and again... lol Highly Recommend her for all your fur babies needs!!”

20. Isabella W.
About: I have had a bunch of animals and also watched some friends animals while they were away on a trip. I take the pets on a walk and get some exercise morning and evening theres always toys for the dogs who can have toys. Feeding times are always around the same time. I have a fenced in yard that is huge where dogs can run around and play with some toys and exercise. Potty hours are whenever needed I'm outside a lot to water flowers and swim and always bring my dog out to play outside while I'm out. I always make sure there is water available its been so hot lately they need it. Treats are also good for doing something good or even when training. I have a lot of free time and love to spend time with my own pets. My schedule is very open all day every day. I feed my dogs twice a day I also walk them twice a day sometimes even three times if it’s cool outside. They always have fresh water and toys.
