Katie is an incredibly thoughtful caretaker. From the time we dropped our goldendoodle off, we felt completely at ease (as did our goldendoodle). Her calm and relational demeanor, coupled with her demonstrated experience and sensitivity to our dog's specific needs made for an incredibly care-free time away for us; we knew that our dog was literally in the best hands.

Samantha has had a love for animals since she was a toddler. She knows how to care for pets, as we have had a variety of them since she was in Kindergarten. She is an extremely thoughtful and responsible person. I highly recommend her as a pet caregiver. I always trust our labs to her care.

Codey cared for 2 high needs cats. She was responsible, professional, and caring. She fed the cats, cleaned their litter boxes, administered medicine, and played with them. She sent pictures of them to let us know how they were doing. She was an excellent communicator before, during, and after the pet sitting.

I am writing this letter of recommendation for Faith, a student of mine, who is applying to become a dog walker and caretaker on Rover. I have known Faith for many years, and I am confident in her abilities as a pet-sitter due to her exceptional qualities and experiences. While she was surrounded by pets her entire life, Faith's passion for animals became evident when she welcomed her border collie, Bingo, into her life at the age of twelve. Faith's dedication and determination led her to teach Bingo over 100 tricks and participate in dog agility classes together. Their bond was remarkable, and they worked diligently to earn Bingo's certification as a Canine Good Citizen. Faith's history in training and understanding canine behavior truly sets her apart. Having grown up surrounded by various pets, including cats and chickens, Faith possesses years of experience caring for animals. She is equally adept at meeting the needs of cats as she is with dogs, as evidenced by her deep understanding and natural affinity for feline companions. Faith can read their behaviors, provide the necessary care, and create a nurturing environment. Her love for cats is evident through her playful interactions and patient approach, as demonstrated by her endearing relationship with her mischievous and spirited cat, Nelly. Faith is currently a proud owner of a rescue border collie named Little Pip, who exemplifies her remarkable abilities as a pet caretaker. Little Pip is well-behaved and possesses a gentle and sweet nature, a testament to Faith's training and nurturing. Her knowledge of animal behavior allows her to understand their needs and emotions, enabling her to provide the appropriate care and attention required. One of Faith's notable strengths is her ability to read animals and establish a connection with them. She is attuned to their signals and can effectively respond to their needs. Faith is both gentle and firm when necessary, demonstrating a balanced approach to handling animals. Her playfulness and enthusiasm make her an ideal companion, ensuring that pets under her care receive not only responsible attention but also a fun and engaging experience. Faith's sense of responsibility is unwavering. She takes her commitments seriously and can be relied upon to provide exceptional care to any pet entrusted to her. Her genuine love and concern for the well-being of animals drive her to go above and beyond to ensure their happiness and safety. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Faith as a pet-sitter. Her extensive experience, training, and profound understanding of animals make her an excellent candidate for this role. Faith's responsible nature, combined with her playful demeanor, guarantees that any pet under her care will receive exceptional attention and care. I have complete trust in Faith's abilities as a pet owner and am confident that she will excel in her endeavors as a pet walker and caretaker. - Katrina

Liam is fantastic!! I was traveling through the area and he helped me out with my time-sensitive boarding request. Very professional, communicative, and caring. Sent multiple pictures each day, as well as some videos -- it's clear he really cares about the dogs he watches, as well as their owners. Highly recommend!!!

My first time using Rover and Denika was amazing! Benji hadn’t been socialized with other dogs yet so I was super worried. But she took good care of him and he made some new doggy friends! I also got plenty of pictures and videos to keep my mind at ease.

Emily took such great care of Dexter! He has separation anxiety but was immediately comfortable being around Emily. He had a great weekend being with her. Emily provided updates and plenty of pictures to give reassurance that Dexter was doing well and in great hands. I would highly recommend Emily, she will make your pet the priority and ensure a stress-free time while you are away from your pet. I could immediately tell that she is an animal lover and wants to provide the best possible experience for your pet, treating them like they’re her own. I will definitely plan to rebook in the future!

Vanessa and her family took great care to our 3-month-old lab while we were on our vacation. Skyler seemed to have a good time there and worn out which is good. she kept me updated on all the fun and was flexible with drop off and pick up times and she is easy to work with. I would definitely be contacting her again when we need a sitter.

I have sent my dogs multiple times to Neveah, and I must say every time I sent them there they were happy. Neveah takes great care of them, pays attention to how they are doing, and takes them for walks. Not once was there issue or conflicts. She is a great communicator and proactively sends me photos or videos of how they are doing daily. This brings peace of mind and certainty that they are okay. Out of all the dog sitters I've had, I can confirm she is the best in town! Her mom and Neveah are sweet, caring, and attentive. I can trust that my dogs will have a great time!

I have known Haley for several years. Haley is a fantastic pet sitter who has taken care of my cat, Zaelia, numerous times. She arrives on time, communicates well, and is great making my cat feel comfortable when I’m away. Haley herself has two cats and a dog and she is fantastic with all of her pets. She is responsible, friendly, and easy to work with. I’d recommend Haley’s pet sitting services to anyone!
