Megan communicates very well and does what she says she is going to do. The app is not user friendly for me but Megan is working out the bugs on her end. Rocco is cared for very well and is a changed man. I can see him less depressed since Megan came into his life.

Emily watched our senior chihuahua for several days while we were traveling for a wedding, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She took wonderful care of him. She provided us detailed updates, and our boy was so comfortable with her. Thank you for everything, Emily!

Elizabeth performed brilliantly -- she completed all requests without fail and provided plenty of photographic and written responses. She was timely in arranging service initially. And she managed the visits and house key drop-off well. We appreciated her willingness to commit to providing care with short notice. Thanks!

About: What sets me apart is that I focus on making every dog feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s personality and routine, whether they’re high-energy puppies or older dogs who need a slower pace and extra care. I’m especially comfortable with: - Puppies and young dogs, including reinforcing basic training like leash manners, potty routines, and positive behavior. - Senior dogs who may need gentler walks, medication reminders, mobility support, or a calmer environment. - Dogs with anxiety or shy temperaments, using patience and positive reinforcement to build trust. - Keeping owners updated with photos, walk summaries, and clear communication so they always know how their pet is doing. I treat every dog like they’re my own and aim to provide dependable care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. I work part-time from home remotely, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your dogs. Available for dog walking after 3pm. I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, personality, exercise needs, feeding routine, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and companionship while also respecting the owner’s space and routine. I keep litter boxes or outdoor areas clean, monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health, and provide regular updates with photos and messages. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of supervision, affection, and structured routines. I make sure pets have comfortable spaces to rest, opportunities for exercise and enrichment, and slow introductions if other pets are present. My priority is always making pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in reliable hands.

Heidi was sooo personable and agreeable to my needs and proved to be an outstanding care giver to Paco! It was the first time I ever had someone outside the family watch him -truly, peace of mind. She was willing to show-up early, mid-day and visit late so he could stretch his legs (run through the yard!). I highly recommend Heidi B ! Great appreciate to Rover for making it easy to book a quality person who lives in the area.

About: Quality pet care, mixed with love, exercise, fun, and safety. That is what I'm all about. I have loved pets since was younger, and first started working with pets as a pet sitter/dog walker. I loved getting to know fur babies and what makes them happiest. I like bringing new buddies home for Lui and mostly I like helping people have a little more time by taking amazing care of their loved ones while at work. I'm happiest when I'm with my pup Lui. He's soon to be 2 years old and still is my spoiled little boy. The love I have for Lui is the love your baby will get when booking with me. We go on walks, we learn new tricks, and get lots of exercise! The more energy the better! I've also had experience dealing with pets with anxiety or aggressive tendencies. Not new to taking my time to build trust and offering a separate space to a dog who needs it. I have cameras in my house offer peace of mind that your loved one is safe & see all the fun we have when indoors, like TV time or tug of war. It's always a fun time and I'm always here for it. I organize my schedule mostly to work with pets full time, my work occupies me from 4 AM to about noon and work 5 minutes from my house with liberty to stop in at any point. Most days I am here through the mornings too so your furry loved ones get undivided attention. I only book dogs in time blocks of 5 hours, so I am never over crowded when it comes to boarding or day care. I like to be sure each pet is taken care of personally and effectively. Pet-Sitting: Often this service for me changes based on owner preference. It requires more in depth detail about the home life of the pet. One reason for this is to ensure I am not interrupting any routines the pet may have. Boarding & Day Care: I treat all pets as if they were my very best friend. We have tv time together (Dog TV), we go on two 30 minute walks within the 5 hour time block. We even eat meals together. Being that my yard is unfenced I personally walk the dogs on leash for 30-45 minutes. Meals for pets are based on owner specifications. Overnight boarding being different in a sense of they get one night walk before bed time/wind down time. They are uncrated (unless the owner specifies to do so), so they have full use of the living area and pets are allowed to be on the furniture purchased for them (Although I am not new to waking up and them being on the couch!)

Kasey was great! Would leave my girls anytime with her. She kept in contact with us. I definitely will use her services in the future. I felt confident leaving them with her before I left, we communicated quite a bit before our trip. My dogs were happy to see us when we got home, but I can tell they were happy and well cared for when I was not here....Amy Rickard
