“Allison is beyond thoughtful when she takes care of our kitty! Her attention to detail is amazing ♥️ she has even gone as far as picking up more treats for our pet!”
2. Melissa J.
“Melissa is the best!!! Super kind, very detail oriented, always punctual and great communication. She leaves super detailed notes on her visits, and honestly I think our cats prefer her to me now 🤭 We will continue to ask her to take care of our cats as long as she is available. 10/10 definitely recommend!”
3. Valentina F.
“Valentina was great! She was quick to respond and was a life saver when needing a pet sitter, unfortunately there was a mix up with my previous sitter and Valentina came in to save the day! We weren’t able to meet up since it was such short notice but kept our line of communication open and she was very attentive to every detail provided and was great with the dogs. Gave them extra love and attention in the time we couldn’t. Great experience overall and would definitely recommend ❤️”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was little. I have experience with dogs from newborn to 18yrs old, and from 5lbs to 90lbs! I love being around animals, ensuring your fur baby’s safety and care is always a priority to me. I would love to get to meet your pup or kitty. I’m currently training for a job right now! My availability is a bit random but it should be more consistent mid/late October. I am normally free weekends and holidays. If I’m not let me know in advance, we can work something out! I have two dogs to keep your pup company but can easily keep separate if needed. I have a fenced in yard and a medium sized crate for my pup.
5. Victoria D.
“Victoria is the greatest I couldn't ask for a better person to be around my dogs! She loves animals and is very passionate about them. I have full trust in her.”
6. Tyler P.
“I want to commend Tyler for being so professional and awesome with dogs. He took my request last minute and still managed to come for a meet and greet the day before I leave town. You are a savior! Also, Reyna was very happy to hang out with you this past weekend. Thanks again Tyler.”
7. Michael M.
“I can’t thank michael enough. He provided house sitting for my two cats over a holiday and ensured every single one of my instructions were carried out precisely. My babies were both lookin good and feelin great when I returned and I’m so thankful to have been partnered with Michael. Will definitely utilize him again.”
8. Emma K.
“Since I’ve known Emma she has always grown up with dogs. She watches my dog often and I never have to worry when my pet is in her care. I know she will provide proper care and attention in keeping my dog safe and happy. I can’t recommend Emma enough as a pet sitter/ walker! My dog is naturally anxious and easily reacts to things, but Emma is very mindful of this and makes accommodations to ensure any triggers are avoided/ minimized as much as possible. I fully trust my dog being in her care.”
9. Samantha B.
“We were a little nervous at first with booking drop-in visits through Rover because we have only ever had our dogs taken care of by close friends and family while we were away. From our initial meet and greet, our 70 pound dogs (a senior Lab mix and a 3 year old extremely hyper Doberman) immediately took a liking to Samantha. She gave us such a wonderful first experience with drop-in visits that we now have the peace of mind from having someone that we could depend on and trust with our fur-babies. She was very punctual with our scheduled drop-ins to feed and water them. She also provided a whole lot of love, attention, and playtime. We received updates and entertaining pictures for the visits so we did not have to worry about anything and we knew they were in great hands.”
10. Marina L.
“We had a drop-in visit with Marina, who is going to be house sitting for us and our two babies next weekend. She was promptly on time, very nice to talk with and presented herself as very responsible and dependable. I have no worries with her watching our little ones. Thanks!”
11. Jaylyn F.
“Hello, Jaylyn has cared for my 2 pups many time before through a different dog care app. I asked to stay with Jaylyn specifically because of the great care she provides each time. Both of my dogs are a handful on their own but Jaylyn manages them perfectly! She is timely, considerate and has adapted to my dogs with ease. I really appreciate her communication and responsibility as well! I really she’s been a great sitter to my pets - I highly recommend Jaylyn!”
12. Deliliah S.
About: I’ve taken care of big and small breeds, I have also trained my own pup several things. I love making sure pups are given love and affection! They are our Bestfriends in this world, as dog parents we should give them the best care.🤍 I am a College student who has plenty of free time with a flexible schedule and plenty of love to give the pups. I love showing the babies new tricks and treating them as my own. I have a big furry friend and her name is Ladie she is a German shepherd who is well maintained and has crazy energy which i love. I also have a small pup who’s our recent one to the family and her name is Luna she is a pug who is more calm and quiet but is also well maintained, both of my pups were taught to do tricks by myself and my family. ❤️

19. Bonnie D.
About: Im simple. Not basic but simple. I love dogs they love me. Same as any other animal. I’ve always had a love for my furry friends. I’ve been a dog walker for a few months now . But I’ve owned dogs cats and many other pets all my life. I know how hard it is to trust any ol person with your pet. Pets are family. In my eyes a pet no matter what it is should be treated with respect. Plain and simple. Just because they can’t talk walk on four legs or fly and have more hair than us they still deserve just as much or maybe even more love than we give to our fellow humans. They are loyal and need a loyal person like myself to care for them. I give nothing less than honest service with a good heart and do everything I can for your pet to enjoy them selves ,feel safe and comfortable for the time being that they are in my care.
