Christopher was fantastic. He helped us with so much more than just our pets after just moving to the area. He was extremely accommodating of our last minute request, and kept us updated throughout the stay. Glad to have found him.

Abby is an incredible sitter! My fiancé and I wanted to find a sitter who genuinely loves animals and would care for our babies the way we do- Abby was the perfect fit. She is kind, gentle, and easy to communicate with. Our cats immediately gravitated towards her. They trusted her, and so did we. If you want peace of mind that your babies are being loved and cared for while you’re away, Abby is the way to go! We will absolutely be calling on her to sit for us again in the future. :)

Tiffany was great! She was prompt and professional and took great care of Maggie. She took her for walks and outside to play while we were away. She also has good dog management skills which were obvious when she came to meet Maggie and get instructions. She immediately calmed her down and brought her energy under control. Our house was neat and everything was in its place. We will definitely book her next time we are out of town!

Dustin is hands down the best and a perfect fit for my nugget! I have used a few sitters off of Rover but none of them were the right fit! When I am away my pup tends to give everyone a run for their money. She was completely comfortable with Dustin and there were no behavioral issues in my absence! Plus he provided a perfect level of communication and pictures! I will only use his services in the future!

Lucas (Jorges son) treated our dogs to tons of snuggles and plenty of walks, he had good communication and held to our rather strict rules. When we came home our house exactly as we had left it. Lucas was very conscientious. (With the oversight of his parents). Our dogs were happy. Do not hesitate to reach out to Jorge.

Hana swooped in when we needed someone in an emergency and quickly adapted and took amazing care of our dogs and home while we were 8 hours away. We came home to a clean home and well cared for dogs. She was quick to respond and even took our dogs on a walk (after ensuring that was ok with us). We will definitely be reaching out to Hana again and highly recommend her!

Gabrielle was great at house sitting. She took great care of all 4 of my animals (one being elderly and taking medication), left my home just as well as she arrived in, and handled all issues promptly and professionally. I encourage anyone looking for a house sitter to work with Gabrielle because I will definitely be returning for future house sitting needs for my animals.

Rebecca has stayed with our two xl dogs three years in a row now and we are always at such peace when she watches them. She treats our dogs as her own and follows the schedule they are on exactly how we would! We get updates throughout the day with pictures of what they’re up to & when they are eating & on walks! She even gives them their daily medicine and knows how to put their E-Collars on. We would trust Rebecca over and over again with our dogs and would highly recommend her if you are looking for a nice vacation and to not worry about your fur babies!

About: My goal is to make sure your fur babies feel like they’re in loving hands . I’ve been around dogs and cats most of my childhood well into adulthood and I can honestly say I truly love interacting with and caring for them. I currently work , but my schedule is pretty flexible and why not fill it with doing something I can enjoy doing? Loving for and caring on fur babies. I would follow whatever structure you currently have with your pet , it seems that usually is the most efficient . Again your fur babies would be in the greatest care with me.

About: I have been pet sitting since 2020! I have experience providing care for dogs, cats, and bunnies, but that doesn’t stop by from taking care of any other kinds of animals! I’m currently a student at Germanna Community College, looking for some outdoor time with your wonderful pets!! I am available for most of the day!! I typically pet sit at other people’s houses, ensuring that they get the best quality care possible!! Depending on if the owner’s have a yard or not, I will give them my whole time there to give your pets all the exercise they need! If you don’t have a yard, I can walk them on a leash!

This was our first time using Rover and we did not really know what to expect. We were going out of the country for ten days and the only thing playing on our minds was if our pup would be ok without us (he can be anxious at times). Rebecca was the perfect fit for our pup and us! She took such outstanding care of our dog, he seemed to have his own vacation! He loved her so much! Rebecca’s diligent care and attention made all of us very happy! We definitely recommend her and will be using her again!
