“It was our first time leaving, Daphne, our cat alone for a weekend and we were apprehensive in leaving her with a sitter. Patricia took the time to come to our house and meet Daphne. When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”

“Sarah is an amazing resource as a pet sitter. Reliable, caring, responsible, flexible, and loving are only a few of adjective of thousands of adjectives I would use to describe her. My weiner dog Pippa is an extremely anxious girl. Sarah understood this and was patient with letting Pip warm up to her.

Having Sarah as a pet sitter is such a gift to have because I know my dog is in such amazing hands and I do not have to worry about how pip is doing while I am away.”

“Melissa was great! We needed someone to let our golden retriever out during the day while at work. Melissa showed up exactly when we scheduled her to, and sent lots pictures and videos which showed how happy our dog was to see her. She communicated very well during the visit and made sure she took care of everything we needed. We're definitely already looking to book her again for the next time we need dog care!”

She made us feel comfortable with the way she listened to our instructions, and her calm demeanor helped them warm up to her very quickly.

20. Gioia L.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life & I’ve always dog sat & dog walked for my family & neighbors! I currently work at Wagsworth Manor Pet Resort so I have a lot of experience with all different kinds of dogs & breeds! Nothing is a hassle for me! I’ve owned dogs & cats since I was born but I didn’t start to care for them on my own until I was about 9-10. I’m almost 20 now & I have so much experience that I’m confident I can do anything for any pet owner! I work at Wagsworth Manor Pet Resort but I’m seasonal so I would love to continue to take care of people’s pets in my free time! I am a college student but I’m willing to open up my schedule in the mean time. Taking care of pets makes me happy! Especially dogs! I do own a crate & lots of toys because I used to own a dog myself recently but she was a foster puppy! I do have a yard & access to plenty of dog parks if needed! The yard is not fenced so your dog will be leashed & supervised at all times!
