“This was our first time using Rover. Daniel and Rachel are kind, caring, good-hearted, and dog loving people. They both treated our dog like their own dogs. We received many photos and updates on what our boy was doing. Maverick loved all of the attention, dog toys, and playing with their dog Jesper. Maverick had an awesome time with Daniel and Rachel. We already have another booking with them. We would recommend Daniel and Rachel to whoever needs a pet sitter. Thanks for taking good care of Maverick. We will see you soon .”


“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”


“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”


“Hugo really enjoyed his time with Susan. She was incredibly professional and sent tons of photos. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future!”


“Amanda is AMAZING!! She takes all proper precautions to ensure safety of her clients and their fur babies. I met her prior to her keeping Nike but did not need her service at the time. I had an emergency come up and without hesitation she was willing to care for Nike. She sent picture updates and stayed in consistent communication. I thank her so much for alleviating my stress level while I was out of town. Highly recommend”


“Wendy was great. She watched our dog, Margo, while we in the process of moving. During what was a busy, stressful time for us, Wendy provided a calm and caring home for our pet. She was flexible with our drop off and pick up times and kept us informed of how Margo was doing via daily texts. Very happy! In fact, we have already booked another stay with Wendy!”


“Jan did an excellent job watching my Yorkie Bichon mix! She was a pleasure to meet and the experience of introducing my dog and getting the arrangement set up went really well. She sent lots of photos and updates during the stay. She helped put me at ease with her level of care and attention to detail regarding the entire stay. I would highly recommend Jan as a dog sitter and I definitely will be going back in the future I’m sure!”


“Marilyn was exactly the kind of sitter I hoped to find and more. My senior dog was instantly at ease and happy to stay with Marilyn. She was so attentive and sent pics. Found our new sitter!”


“Highly recommend 10/10. Chelsea made the experience of leaving our Cats with a sitter seamless and amazing. She went over and beyond to ensure that the animals were comfortable while making sure that we were also comfortable. If you are looking for a sitter, I suggest Chelsea!”


“Attentive, caring and conscientious sitter. Sent pictures, was and kept me updated and was flexible with pick up & drop off times. Gracie loved him! Would use again.”


“Thank you Veronica for the overnight stay for Darby while I was in town for a wedding. You were very welcoming to Darby, and as a pet parent, that made me feel very comfortable that I knew that Darby would be well taken care of. Also, thank you for the pics and video, it was great to see Darby having fun and settling into your home. I’m glad that Darby and your dog Roxie got along so well.”


“I have a large Saint Bernard and struggled to find someone that I thought had the right property and could handle close to a 200lb dog. Arya had multiple very large dogs and has a very large property that sits back from the road so I booked and it ended up being the perfect fit. He is super knowledgeable on caring for dogs and sent me multiple videos a day. I’ll be back! Thanks again Tyler”


“The doggies came home very happy and clearly well cared for. Kaycee was also really wonderful to work with, as I my schedule was so erratic with respect to meet and greet and the actual stay - she was accommodating and kind, which I really appreciated. As a person who rarely boards my two dogs, I would feel comfortable with them staying with Kaycee again.”


“Have booked with Kaitlyn now three times! She is very accommodating to our last minute plans! She is also great with Kai, I swear he doesn’t even want to come home and looks down the drive for her to come pick him up! She sends photos just about daily and is willing to text outside of watching Kai when I have a question for her! She is great and will use again and again!”


“I cannot recommend Karma enough!! We were in a last minute bind for a long weekend trip we had to go on and Karma made us so very comfortable about leaving our new 1.5 a year old pup with her! Not to mention, she taught us a bunch about training and helped our pup out with some behavioral training things while there which we were super appreciative of. I received plenty of updates and photos and there is no doubt that our pup, Teddy, had an absolute blast while also being so well taken care of, was safe, and comfortable. We will definitely be asking Karma to sit Teddy again. If I could give more stars I would!! Thank you x a million, Karma!”


“Deanna took great care of our dog! She was so kind and welcoming, and made me feel like our pup was safe and well cared for. I appreciated the photo updates throughout his stay with her! We'd be happy to have her care for him again!”


“Our doggo Finn always has the BEST time at Beth and Edward’s place! Great pictures and communication. We know we’ll have a happy boy while we’re gone on vacation!”


“Brandon was great! Sent us pictures and updates every day while we were gone. Ours dogs love to run around outside and play fetch, and Brandon has a great outdoor setup for dogs.”



“We have never used Rover or any at home pet sitter for Bingo. Our initial meet and greet with Melissa eased my mind!!!! Such a sweet loving family and I left knowing Bingo would be fine!! I got daily updates and pictures. He was so well cared for! We will most definitely use Melissa again!!!”


About: During the past 10 years I have volunteered with animal rescue, my local pound, and worked at a boarding facility, plus received vet tech education. I am currently focused primarily on providing pet care services and do not have any limitations being able to work at any time or date. Any pet that is allowed outside will be supervised by myself and kept on leash. If I’m caring for a pet at their home I would supervise them in fenced area or keep on leash. I’m committed to caring for your pet with their safety being most important, as I do with my own 2 small dogs.

Jessica E.
“Having worked alongside Jessie in the pet care industry for over ten years, I have seen her skills and commitment to the wellbeing and happiness of pets. Jessie is knowledgeable in safety precautions, and signs and symptoms of common pet ailments. Jessie has a keen eye and is very observant, and notices if something is off with a pet. These are definitely qualities you want in someone caring for your pet while you are away! Jessie is so patient and kind, especially with senior pets. She is experienced administering a variety of medications to pets, and has seen her share of pets with special needs. She truly gets to know each pet, and enjoys caring for her regular furry clients over their lifetimes. She has compassion and love for all animals, but if you have a pug or a chihuahua she will absolutely be your pet’s new best friend!!”
