Danielle does a great job. She took wonderful care of our senior pup and gave him extra love when he seemed sad. She is great at communicating with you, and we would not hesitate to have her sit with him again.

Angie did a great job taking care of my two kitties they were both relaxed, healthy, and happy when I returned. I highly recommend her... she spent a good amount of time each visit not only feeding and cleaning up but also holding and petting them. I am booking her again for my next trip this coming February.

Sasha watched my 2 cats in my house while I was out of town. She was very professional and prompt with communication and sent photos every day. My cats are very wary of new people and she made an effort to interact with them on a level they were comfortable with. I will be thinking of Sasha in the future when I need someone to take care of my cats.

Maddie did such an amazing job checking in on our problem kitties! She made sure to give us a photo update of all of them everyday and checked that they were actively using the litter boxes. Fantastic job! She should be used by anyone and everyone! Her being a vet-tech is just an added bonus :)

Amy is wonderful pet sitter. She is very responsible and punctual. Amy asked a lot of details about my cat and how to care about him. It was very easy to communicate with her - she sent a report about each visit (with photos) and responded promptly and in detail. I recommend her as a pet sitter.

About: I have always been around a huge variety of animals, including dogs of all different breeds and ages! From caring for my own dogs as well as friends and family, I’m well versed in all of your typical pet care routines! My biggest constraint to my schedule at the moment is my classes. I have the most availability on weekends and some on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays! My philosophy with any animal is to care for it the way I would want someone to take care of my own. I will give the same amount of love and consideration to a pet and their parents as I would my own!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 11 for my neighbors during the summer. Later on, during high school, my family adopted a dog as we planned to train her to be a service dog for my sister. I helped care for Lexi and even taught her some tricks like shake in exchange for belly rubs. I could also help with Pet Transportation and Pet Walking. I'm currently enrolled in college but am free every weekend. I am also available Monday and Friday nights. However, I do not currently own a pet, but I have had to care of my sibling's pets since they were younger and often forgot to do it. I have cared for my sister's dog Lexi and my brother's hermit crabs, and will sometimes take care of my aunt's dogs. I am often good with pets after meeting them. I normally list down important information related to the pets. I also often ask for more detail on how I can accommodate the client's pet.

Miranda was great! I had never left my cat, Geode, for over a week before and was nervous about it, but Miranda gave me tons of updates and sent lots of pictures every day. I definitely felt like Geode was in good hands. I came home to a very happy cat!

Ellie has worked with animals for over 10 years. They are receptive to her and show immediate trust. With her job skills from working at different zoos, she has worked with a variety of animals with their care, nutrition, exercise, and habitat. She would be an excellent addition to the field.

Janessa was so great with our three girls! She communicated well, spent plenty of quality time with the girls during the drop-in visit, and sent us adorable pictures. This was our first experience with Rover and we are so glad we chose Janessa. We highly recommend her!

About: I have worked in a vet clinic for 4 years as a kennel technician. My duties there in included but were not limited to feeding/watering, cleaning/disinfecting, giving meds, potty breaks, and helping with medical procedures. I am a college student with a very open schedule. I would be able to go on several walks a day, and be very available at night. I will care for others pets like my own. I grew up on a farm and rural Iowa and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. I was taught proper handling and care for animals at a young age and have never strayed from that.

About: I’ve always loved farm style animals and a country girl that lives in the City. 😁 I’ve rode horses growing up and during fair time bottle calves for the sons to show at fair. We have a borgie that will be 2 February 13th. Borgie is a 1/4 border collie and 3/4 corgi. His name is Rip. We do live in McCallsburg but am in Nevada everyday. I have a part time job which makes my days Monday and Thursdays free. All three kiddos are in school all day this year. Let me know what you need and I'll see what we can get worked out! I unfortunately don’t have a fenced in yard . Will for sure take dog on walks. We do have a fenced in deck but it’s not much. We do have three young kiddos that will help your dog burn off energy.
