Belicia was an amazing sitter who communicated with us often. She immediately put us at ease by sending us pictures, videos, details regarding every walk, etc. When we returned to our apartment it was in the exact same condition we left it, and our two dogs, Juniper and Basil, were calm, healthy, and happy. I will definitely keep Belicia in mind for future dog sitting/walking needs.

Molly was wonderful with my pup Otto and I came home to a very happy dog. Molly was also great with watching my home while sitting for Otto. Highly recommend!

Shakira is amazing! I feel like she's part of the family. She did an amazing job looking after my Maltipoo, Dash! She sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day. I really appreciate the way she made both me and Dash feel comfortable. Before she left, I had already booked her for another sitting for Dash. She's the best!

Truly the best dog sitter I’ve ever had, both on Rover and personally. I trust her implicitly and she treats my two “children” like her own. I never worry when I’m gone and know they’re in the best of hands.

Masheika was great! With manolo she is sweet and patient and loves to cuddle him I think she even spoiled him a little bit with all the cuddles :-) I appreciate how flexible she was with the schedule and I will definitely recommend her and will be using her again for Manolo’s needs!

Coretta takes very good care of our 2 dogs! She walks them on a regular basis and makes sure they have enough food and are properly hydrated. What I love most about Coretta is how she interacts with them. They have completely different personalities and Coretta keeps up! She's also punctual and always follows instructions. If you want a loving, professional pet caregiver, Coretta is the way to go!

Chau is such the animal whisper. Somehow animals gravitate to her, probably because she understands their boundaries and has a kind soul. I’ve been fortunate to watcher her raise her one year old pup. Her dog is so well behaved and confident, which speaks to the training Chau did with her. Chau is thoughtful and patient. Your fur baby will be in really good hands.

About: I have always had pets as a child and the responsibility to care after them like I would my siblings. But as I have gotten older I have been provided the luxury of owning pets I can call my own and raise how I see fit (which is code for spoil). I wont put some long drawn out advertisement of why you should pick me to care for your fur baby, but just understand that everyone tells me how I treat TuTu more like a child than I do the human one 🙂 Thats how much i love pets, and how important it is to make them feel part of the family! And if you decide to trust me with your pet, just know they will always be treated the same while in my care💜 I work a full-time job in IT, but very flexible and mostly remote. So i am pretty open and available when needed. Also very respectful of your time, so i will always be open and communicate any conflicts that may arise. I currently have a 3 year old Shitzhu that is full of energy and love to be around other dogs. Extremely (overly) friendly and very welcoming lol. I also have a cat that is pretty antisocial, so in the instance you would prefer my home, i will put her in her up in her own room. I stay in a duplex, so plenty of room to be comfortable. Also, we go on multiple walks a day so plenty of exercise will be provided along with belly rubs.

Jonah was a responsive and considerate petsitter. He stayed in our home to watch our senior diabetic cat and pitbull. Appreciated how clean and tidy he left our home, as well as how he checked in before leaving to make sure our flight hadn’t been delayed.

About: I am a college grad and former dog owner with previous experience working as a dog sitter since high school. I love pets immensely, and am so excited to meet yours! Every dog I get to greet is a gift, and I treat them as such. Through my own experience as a dog owner, alongside my diverse experience with other dogs, I have learned a lot that I get to bring to these new situations. I know how vital calmness can be, and keep myself patient. I know every dog is different, so please share everything you can about your animal and all their quirks! Getting to interact with animals is so much fun and so fulfilling, I wish to spend more of my time doing it when I can. I currently work from home, so my schedule is incredibly flexible! I'm available for walks throughout the week and can stay with your fur baby as need be. I like to keep the care of your pet as close as possible to their normal routine, so please keep that information clearly written out if possible, or we can write it out together!

Asia was amazing watching my pets while I was on vacation. Without even asking, she texted me daily with photos and giving me updates on what they were doing. My home was as clean as I left it and you wouldn't have even known she was here. She was respectful, neat and tidy. Couldn't have been a better experience. I will definitely use Asia and this service in the future.

About: I've had dogs my whole life growing up & started pet care in 2016- 2017 I love to help others & provide the best care for my clients. I love animals, all of them i dont discriminate against ANY breed. We have a loving but shy Pitbull. SHE WILL NOT BE HOME WHEN I DO DAY CARE FOR YOUR ANIMAL AT MY HOME.(UNLESS YOU WANT HER TO BE) (( even though she Absolutely LOVES other dogs)) ) i like to provide one on one care to focus on your fur babies. I have transportation also so that's not an Issue. This is what I enjoy doing, most ppl don't like work, but I love it its also great exercise for all of us. I'm energetic when I need to be and if your dog wants to take it slow if they're older that's totally fine I will adapt to any of your pets preferences/needs. I get along with animals so well they are my bestfriends. They are in great hands. I'm currently working part-time & I pick my own days/hours work schedules so I'm very flexible. Same day pet care jobs are acceptable also. I love to be available for your fur babies. IMPORTANT INFO. ( When i care for you animals, my dog is not around, unless you want her to be ) i come to clients home to provide exceptional care. Your preferences and expectations will be respected and met at all times. I will provide care the way you prefer when you request. We have a huge fenced in yard with 7ft tall wooden fences. Your pets are safe with me anytime.

Hello , I like to tell you about Emma F. Last year my husband and I had to go away for almost 3 month, Emma stayed with our 3 pets (Jake, Luna and Misha). She did a fabulous job at taking care of them, walk them everyday and of course spoiled them. She made sure to update us often as to how our babies were doing. We highly recommend her, I assure you that your pets will be loved and taken very good care with Emma. Marcella and Don

Jaz is an incredible person who deeply cares for animals, plants, and nature. You can tell that they are passionate about making animals feel loved, cared for, and safe. Jaz developed a beautiful bond with my dog, whom I would leave in their care again anytime! They always bring a little bit of magic with them wherever they go, and that’s what makes them such and amazing pet sitter— plus, if you have plants, they’ll thrive under Jaz’s nourishing care!!

About: As a dog owner you should pick someone to care for your dog who has experience and loves dogs. Well, that care giver is me. Dogs are super energetic and absolutely loyal and that's what I love most about them. Trying to tire out a dog is fun because they're always ready for a game of fetch. If you choose me to care for your dogs you'll be receiving absolute professional service and a great experience for your dog. I have experience in walking, providing medication, and feeding dogs. Hopefully you pick me to care for your loving, four-legged friends. I’m home full time so I am available for last minute scheduling and weekends as well. I have a cat already but they don’t require much attention. I have a big fenced back yard for your fur babies to run around. If you bring the crate I can easily crate them. I have a great neighborhood for dog walking.

Myya did an excellent job watching my house and four dogs for three nights while I was away. Myya is very responsible and trustworthy as my dogs were well taken care of. She daily sent me pictures of my dogs and communicated through texting throughout my time away. When I got home,the house was cleaner than when I left. I will always use Myya for my house and dog sitting needs
