Haley was easy to communicate with and reassured this nervous fur mama throughout my trip. She asked great questions and kept me informed about small snags so I could be reassured my pets were in great hands. One of my pups needs daily meds and she was undaunted by the task. Loved receiving photos and updates. Thanks, Haley!

Justine watched our pups for a week and they were obviously well-cared for and loved. I was relaxed the whole time away knowing that she had them in hand. We had a small hiccup with exactly which food to feed, but it was an easy fix and I look forward to having Justine back as often as she is available. She left the house just as she found it- possibly even better.

Donna did an amazing job taking care of our dog Linde. I liked the fact that she didn’t bring another dog into our home. She took care of administering our dog’s daily medicine. She also gave Linde daily massages which she loves. When we got home Linde was calm and laidback obviously not stressed. Donna also left the house better than we left it. She sent us photos and videos of Linde while we were away. We definitely will try to use Donna for future vacations.

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s animals whenever they needed me to since I was in elementary school. I’m known to be extremely responsible, and have been working since I was 15 years old. I have two dogs currently and one cat, and have helped to take care of my family pets since I was in kindergarten. I am very good at time management and organization and will always be able to make time to take care of your pet. I am available most mornings and evenings. My schedule is extremely flexible as I am a college student and can move things around as necessary in order to take care of your loved animal. I am very gentle with all animals and will never be harsh with your pet. I am great with keeping a good schedule for feeding and letting your pet out to go to the restroom, along with giving them an excellent walk so their energy is well spent. I love spending quality time with pets outside of walking, too, whether it’s throwing a toy in the backyard or just watching television together for a little bit so they don’t feel lonely.

Nicole was great with the dogs and they warmed up quickly to her which made me feel so good about leaving them in her care. She was very good with communication and sending little updates. And when Kida got an upset stomach she checked in with me on her status to make sure we felt good about her care. Will definitely use her again in the future!

De'Asia stayed with our 66 lb sweet but dog-reactive handful for several days. We told her she was welcome to walk him but didnt have to. She took him all over thre neighborhood successfully while keeping me well informed of how he was the whole time. That alone would have been above and beyond. My house was cleaner than I left it, possibly cleaner than I've seen it in months. She treated both my house and my dog like her own. I told my husband to make room because I was going to beg her to move in. Heck. We might go out of town just to give the dog another chance to stay with her. I've had a lot of rover sitters over the years and De'Asia is the best we've ever had. I strongly suggest booking her, as long as its not while Im also out of town.

About: I have been raised to care for pets. My entire life my family has had Labs, and I have grown to love them so very much. I also have experience with Cats, Ferrets, and now I have my own Bunny! I am on summer break from Roanoke College so I am free anytime to care for furry friends! Whatever their needs are, I am there! In my house, each of my pets have their own litter boxes, water/food bowls, and my bunny has her own room. I devote hours each day to provide enrichment to each of my pets. I would do the same with my clients pets!

She sent us great updates and photos throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also extremely accommodating when my flights were delayed and cancelled. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!

This was my second time using Rover. It had been almost a year prior. I completely lucked out the first time selecting Erin & Matt, my choice was based on their reviews, and meeting them. I knew this time, they would be my go to and first choice! I have 2 pups and a cat and I was able to leave them in Erin & Matts care with complete peace of mind...that is priceless! I received daily photos, and videos with updates that once again confirmed I made the right choice! This young couple are so professional, and responsible.... they even washed and changed the sheets 🙂 I am so thankful for the positive experience I've had w Rover, and even more thankful for Erin & Matt 🩷
