“We booked a stay for our dog with Jessica through Rover while our family was on Spring Break. Zuzu had a great time with Jessica! Jessica was very friendly and accommodating, she sent pictures every day and made Zuzu feel at home with her and her family. I will definitely have Jessica watch Zuzu again in the future and highly recommend her!”

About: I've had a fur baby in my arms since I was a child. Not only did I raise my own, but I've kept my friends, my co-workers and my son's dogs while they were out of town, for a day, a week and sometimes longer. I cared for my son's senior boy while he worked, and then he brought the newest baby to me everyday she when she was a puppy, so she wasn't home alone and I could potty train her with love. I raised our German shepherd with my sons from the time she and my youngest were both just 8 weeks old. When Libby was almost 18 yo we had to have our vet assist her in crossing the rainbow bridge. From there I got my first tiny dog, a little boy named Dexter, Chihuahua 6.6 lbs, and then shortly after I got Danika, Chihuahua 5.5 lbs. They went everywhere with me, vacations, nail salon, shopping. They had a purse they loved to jump right in and 2 booster seats so they were secured safely in my car. I lost Dexter to heart disease at 14 yo and poor little Danika was lost without him. I adopted Lucylle, Chihuahua 6 lbs, she was 2 yo. She was left at the vet by her previous family, that never came back to get her. She was very aggressive towards everyone in the beginning and it took me 3 months of patience and love to bring her out of it. By that time her and Danika were best friends, and loving companions, of course they went everywhere with me. We lost Danika just few months ago, she was 16 yo. That's when I decided to start my journey with Rover, to bring some added joy into mine and Lucylle's life and give other fur babies a safe and loving place to visit when family were away. I retired 04-2024, Lucylle and I have plenty of time on our hands. I bought a patio home, with a nice fenced back yard, where I sit in the morning or anytime during the day/evening and watch Lucylle go out and do her business or just play. We take walks around the neighborhood or down at the walking trail. My neighbors are also dog lovers, they just love little Lucylle. I have a fenced back yard for them to play in with my girl, and I keep a watchful eye on them when they are outside. I can crate your baby if needed, as I do my own sometimes. I have little beds and/or a blanket for them to snuggle when they are napping. Being retired gives me plenty of time for your fur baby (and mine). Caring, playing and loving them as if they were my own.
“Thank you so much for taking great care of my baby while I was away! I will definitely reach back out if I'm in need of a sitter again. It was nice not having to worry about him my entire trip. Loved the pictures and updates! Thanks again for giving him so much attention and loving!”

Aidan B.
“I honestly think of Aidan as the most attentive pet owner I have seen so far. When he took his dog (Bella) from the street he found her in, she was a terrified, anxious, small pup that was wary of people around her. Now, she's joyfully playing with everyone she meets. She even became comfortable with exploring new enviroments under his constant care. The development of their friendship was a beautiful thing to witness and to me that alone is a proof that he knows how to properly love and care for his pets.”
