Schuyler was an absolute life-saver. The first day of our vacation my mother fell and broke her hip and I was extremely stressed and spent my entire vacation in a hospital in Charleston, SC. Schuyler continued to check on me daily and sent pictures and updates about Crosby and Murphy. She managed my house, checked my mail, and made sure everything was running smoothly at home so I could focus on my mother and her care. When I got home, the house was perfect and the pups were healthy and happy. I cannot recommend Schuyler enough. She was absolutely awesome!!! Jean Scott

Nicole was amazing! She took care of my fur babies better than I do and left the house better than she found it. I got updates every day without having to ask for them, which was great since this was my first time using Rover and I was nervous. Will absolutely be hiring her in the future.

Wendy was great. She snatched up an impossible to cover NYE dog sit in our home last minute. She was great at communicating and we came home and our pup seemed tired from being exercised and cared for.

Emma is a true animal lover, and has helped take care of our two dogs (walking and feeding) when we need to be away for several hours. She has been very reliable and trustworthy, and our dogs love her. I think she would be a great sitter for dogs or cats.

Carol is one of the most passionate animal lovers I’ve ever met! Horses, dogs, cats, and pretty much any domestic/ farm animal you can imagine, she’s cared for. No doubt, if I had to choose one individual to care for my furry baby it would be her. She’s punctual and refreshingly upfront. Highly recommend her for those who feel uncertain using a service where you don’t really know the person.

Sofi has been our dog sitter for several years now especially during the summer when we go on get-away weekend trips. She is reliable and the animals love her. She always takes good care of the dogs and is very attentive to our diabetic dog that requires insulin injections. She even came to the vet with me to learn how to administer his medicine. She is super easy to get along with and you will feel safe knowing your pets are in good hands.

About: I love our 3 dogs we have, I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. They are our family. I have watched our dogs and our neighbors when they were on vacation. I am currently not working and looking to do this full time. I have an open availability. Day or night will definitely work for me. We have a fenced in back yard for our 3 dogs. Have 5 acres with a pond. Lots a room to walk the dogs and play. Daily routines take my dogs out in yard and have play time. Ball throwing, when weather is warm it's pond day for our little hope. I have fenced in back yard. I take them out for walks around property and down our quiet street. We have training time on sitting etc.
