This was my first experience using Rover for my two golden retrievers and was quite nervous to have to hire someone new to watch them while I was out of town. Leanne far exceeded my expectations! I was grateful to receive lots of pictures of the pups throughout my trip and plenty of updates. They spent lots of time on walks and at the park playing. They looked so happy in all of the pictures and I felt completely at ease throughout my time away. I returned to all of the linens cleaned and two happy good boys. I don't know that you can find someone much better! Hire Leanne, your pets will be glad you did :)

Zubin took excellent care of my senior pup and was incredibly attentive to his needs and routine. I had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful care.

Melissa was incredible with my babies! I know we were only gone for a couple of days, but by the first night, Cleo had warmed up to her and even cuddled on her lap. Rocket got lots of snuggles and walks. And Max got just the right amount of attention. She sent lots of pictures and made sure she asked questions if she was unsure about something (a huge must in my book). She even left a stocking of goodies for Max and Cleo from her own babies. We will definitely hire her again...

Emily was accommodating with scheduling, she followed all of our instructions for Olivia‘s care. She sent regular updates and sweet photos during her stay. She took Olivia on walks and played until the puppy was worn out — a tired, happy pup is our goal. We look forward to working with Emily again!

Dannie was flexible, kind, and easy to work with. He provided care under unique + high maintenance circumstances where he accommodated 1) the need for flexible timing and location while I traveled to town for work and 2) to care of my dog who requires constant vigilance to manage a subtle injury where inattention could result in immediate paralysis.

Ali stayed at our home for eight days and took incredible care of our somewhat difficult cat Scamp and our senior dog Phoebe, who has some special needs. She was warm, attentive, and clearly loves animals—Phoebe and Scamp were so well cared for, and we felt completely at ease the entire time. Ali also left our home absolutely spotless, going above and beyond in every way. She’s kind, responsible, and someone we’d welcome back without hesitation.

Sonny stayed in our home and watched our dog over the long Thanksgiving weekend, and we would definitely use his services again. He took great care of our pet and left our house just as clean as we left it. He also always responded promptly to our texts and kept us posted on our dog's health and happiness. It made for a stress-free holiday. Thanks Sonny!

Lexi was amazing! Ozzy is very particular about who watches her but she gave Lexi no problems at all! She gave me updates and photos of Ozzy throughout the days which I very much appreciate as someone who doesn’t like to leave their dog behind and misses her very much. Lexi was also able to work with me last minute as I had a previous sitter fall through very last minute. I would recommend Lexi to anyone who needs a sitter!

Cealey was so incredibly sweet, we were in town for two days, and she responded very quickly to come and take care of our two cats in our hotel room. It’s our first time traveling with our cats and she was able to get them out of their shell. I definitely recommend hiring her to take care of your fur babies! Thank you Cealey!

About: I have cared for pets all my life! From dogs and cats to guinea pigs, rats, and fish, I am comfortable in many different situations! I have cared for elderly dogs as well as kittens. I can administer medications and I have experience caring for kittens post fixing. I can handle many different temperments and can adjust my approach based off the fur babies personalities and needs. I am willing to work with you and my schedule is flexible! I work full time but am available for potty breaks during my lunch each day and will always prioritize being home for the pets I watch especially during overnights. I am very consistent about meal times, snack times, potty breaks, and changing litter boxes (or other various cages/tanks). I am always mindful about how much time I am away from the pets, making sure my time is primarily spent with them (if overnight). I am athletic and happy to do extensive walking with dogs! I also make sure to follow pet parents' schedules and ask any questions as they come up. As a pet parent myself, I always want the fur babies to be comfortable and at ease with me as much as possible.

Aubrey was so willing and able to just jump in and help us with our 2 dogs as we were right in the middle of a move and had a trip planned. She did great even though one of our pups can be a bit grumpy and apprehensive of new people as well as administer meds no problem!

Gosh what can I say about how great Abbe is with Molly? She’s helped us twice and I think Molly was actually upset that we came home! She treats Molly like she is her own and sends us the best pictures so we don’t feel as homesick. Molly loves all of her friends, especially Abbe!

Isabella was incredibly communicative and took amazing care of my high-energy dog, Luna. She provided regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing Luna was in such good hands allowed me to fully relax and enjoy my trip without worrying. It’s clear that Isabella genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and Luna absolutely loved her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!

Melissa is amazing! She stayed with my pup who required extra attention due to his separation anxiety and he’s grieving the loss of his sister of all 11 years of his life. She provided lots of updates during her stay and lots of pictures. Walker looked happy and extremely well cared for in every single one. I was very anxious about leaving him since he required extra attention and is on some new meds but Melissa was wonderful and I never wondered for a second how things were going while I was away. I know we have a new friend who we will rebook with any time. Thank you, Melissa!!
