This was our first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Jamie is very kind hearted and our two fur babies enjoyed their time with her. One of our pups usually does not immediately take to people and she went right over to Jamie and visited with her a couple of times during our meet and greet prior to hiring Jamie. Jamie was fine with the instructions we left for feeding, walking, and how to make our fur family feel less stressed by keeping their routine. We already have Jamie scheduled for two more trips we have coming up. Thanks for your help Jamie. ☺️

Kathy housesat for us for a week. She was wonderful with our two little dogs. She took good care of them, brushing them and sending us many fotos. They obviously liked her as we saw upon our return. The house was also immaculate and all the plants in good condition. We highly recommend her to anyone wishing pet care in your own home.

Donna was the best find on Rover! We interviewed a few people and just didn’t feel comfortable until we found her. She showed up when she said, our pups loved her, and we are so thankful for her. 😊

Masha totally came and save the day when my brother and I needed a last minute puppy sitter for my two elderly pups for 3 days. My puppies are a little needy and get very upset one they don’t see their humans around, and Masha swooped in to make sure they were comfortable and totally eased our worries. 100% calling her next time we have to leave the pups home.

Ruth was amazing with our dog and cat. She was prompt and very communicative throughout the visit. Our dog required eye drops and medicine and she was able to administer them with no issues. She also cleaned up after the pets and ensured our sheets were clean and ready for us when we came back home on a late flight. Lastly, she even coaxed our very shy cat out from hiding! We appreciate her professionalism and taking such great care of our pets!

I have previously entrusted Klency’s services to care for both of my bulldogs, who require specialized attention due to their breed. She was consistently punctual in administering their medications and remained highly responsive, providing frequent updates throughout the day, including photos and messages. Her attentiveness and professionalism gave me peace of mind, making my work trips significantly less stressful, knowing my pets were in capable hands. Additionally, my dogs were always excited to see her, which reassured me that they had a positive and comfortable experience under her care. I’m happy to recommend Klency to Rover ensuring she is a trustworthy person and true animal lover.

About: I grew up with 50-gallon fish tanks, 3 big dogs and one small one, and I rescued a cat recently. I love animals so much!!! If I had a house just for rescues I would. I am waiting to hear to volunteer at Humane society. I currently have a part time job at HomeGoods. And I am in college online but I can always make more into my schedule. I am always looking to fill my extra time. I am always ahead of my schoolwork and on time for my job. I grew up with different animals and the proper care they each need so I have a full understanding of how all of them work. And also, once my oldest dog got elderly, he went blind and had to go on medication and I always took care of him when I was 13 and had no problem.

Sandra is THE BEST! This was our first time using Rover and leaving the pups with someone who wasn’t my mom or sister. I was terrified. We met Sandra and the worries went completely away! The dogs instantly loved her. They miss her already. Sandra is the best and an incredible dog person. My larger dog is a rescue with quirks and Sandra was amazing at handling them. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. Sandra is officially our go-to dog sitter!

I lucked out finding Kim at the last minute. She was able to take care of the dog with a two day notice which was amazing. She kept me updated throughout the stay and even left me a note at the end that wrapped everything up so that I didn’t have any questions about how it went. I would most certainly recommend her but also book her again myself. I’ll already Recommended her to neighbors and friends.

Danielle was awesome once again! She stayed at our place with Dakota for our short trip to Key West. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Dakota absolutely loves her and the house was perfectly clean when we got home. I would recommend Danielle to anyone and plan to use her services again soon! :)
