“Thank you SO MUCH Brooke! It was our dogs first overnight stay with a sitter and he was anxious, but we were able to be at ease while out of town as Brooke communicated and sent us pics and updates. We came home to everyone safe and the house perfect. We would definitely book again.”
6. Victoria C.
“I used rover for the 1st time and I’m SO HAPPY that I found Victoria! We easily set up a meet & greet with my newly rescued dog Cloud & they immediately got along great! I was leaving the country for 10/11 days & was looking for someone that worked from home & that could provide 24hr care at my apartment to Cloud since he has separation anxiety. Victoria sent me photos everyday on her & cloud’s adventures and kept me in the loop with my apartment when the toilet got a leak. Victoria went above & beyond to wait for the maintenance crew to check out the toilet leak since I was out of the country. I left a binder of instructions for Cloud and Victoria followed the instructions since Cloud is a rescue and is still working on his leash reactivity. Victoria went on lots of walks with Cloud so I know Cloud was very happy while I was gone! Victoria took REALLY GOOD CARE of my sweet boy Cloud AND my home and would HIGHLY recommend to anyone! I will definitely reach out to Victoria again for my next trip!”

About: I have been associated with all dog Breeds ever since I was 2 years old. I currently have 3 furbabies myself (GermanPit, GermanHusky, labordoodle. I currently work at Persmart part-time so I am very familiar with how to handle emergencies and more. I have been on Rover for 2 years I have been watching pets for 20years. I am currently working part-time, I have 3 other employees who will be with the pets in case anyone has to leave out. I am always at home when I get off of work. Your furbabies and I will take walks, run around the backyard, I have a great amount of space, they get water throughout the day, play time, nap time, frequent bathroom breaks, and relaxation time on the porch. I have 5 rescues so my time continuously consist of furbabies and their needs. My Bestfriend/Roommate is a Dog Trainer so our priority is the fur baby needs. I am about to move into a house with a large fenced backyard in a few weeks, but for now I am in a 2,000sqft apartment with a large unfenced yard and a very peaceful pet friendly complex.
19. Kate T.
“First time Rover users and I think it’ll be our last. We unfortunately found our new PERFECT babysitter in Kate. We could not have asked for someone more perfect to stay with our babies. It was so seamless I barely checked on them! Will 100% be checking Kate’s availability anytime we plan on leaving for more than a day. 5 stars is not enough, 2 paws up all around <3”

“Seneca is an incredible dog lover and person. She cares for all dogs she encounters and does a phenomenal job calming hyper dogs, and gaining trust of shy/scared dogs. I would trust her to care for my pets any day and know that they are safe in her care.”
