“Meghan is amazing and all over her time stamps are so detailed, they make me laugh as she describes our pups personalities so well! Thank you as always Meghan, we appreciate you more than you know!”
“She is the dog whisperer and our babies loved having Nicole take care of them. She is professional and it’s awesome to know our dogs are in good hands while we go away. 5 star”
“Ben took care of my two young kittens while I was away. He was super friendly, reliable, and responsive. He went above and beyond with caring for the kitties and tidying up my home. Will definitely contact him again for future pet sitting.”
“Had to leave my 7 month old puppy and was so nervous. Brianna met him before hand and I knew he’d be okay. I got a detailed report every time she was with him with pics and video. Highly recommend!”
“Autumn is great with our dog. Her rover cards are always on time and she is great with communicating and responds quickly. She goes above and beyond and brings in the mail and packages. It’s so nice knowing our dog is being taken good care of when we can’t take him with us. Highly recommend Autumn.”
“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.”
“We are so very grateful for Olivia’s care of our senior dog. She came to meet him and we had a good feeling about her right away. She has been punctual with her visits, quick to respond to any communication from us, and thorough with her reports of her time with our boy. We look forward to continued visits from Olivia, and our pup does too.”
“Lauren was great with my dogs! She took my VERY last minute request to drop in and let my 2 dogs out and give them some attention (her first time meeting them too!). She was very patient with my older timid dog, and took the time to ask me questions and took in all the information I sent her way. Would definitely reach out to utilize her help in the future ☺️”
About: I recently had to say goodbye to my own dog, who was my daily walking buddy and constant sidekick. Getting back to dog care is a way for me to stay connected to that part of my life. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and know how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from high-energy pups to older dogs who need a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, basic training reinforcement, or just giving your dog the attention they need while you’re out. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s regular walks, check-ins, or some extra company for your pup while you’re gone, I’ve got it covered. I’m currently working part time from home as a consultant. So my schedule is very flexible. I can be available throughout the day as needed. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pup to roam. I have a reliable car and am available to bring dogs to my house if needed.
“Andi is fantastic! She accepted a last minute drop in booking when my scheduled sitter had a family emergency and had to cancel unexpectedly. She came by for a meet and greet beforehand was wonderful. Would happily rebook.”
“Amberleigh is an amazing sitter, she is very responsive and sends updates daily with some really nice pictures. She goes above and beyond, I'm so happy Cleo is in good care while we are away.”
