Zoe did a great job looking after my cat while I was away. Feisty warmed up to her even on her first visit, which was a very good sign. will be asking Zoe to take care Feisty again in the future.

Olivia is a very sweet person I was lucky enough to have take care of my precious cat Luna. She made sure she was well aware of her needs and went beyond her responsibilities by trying to just be a friend to Luna while I was away. I would recommend Olivia to anyone. 10 out of 10

Genie did an incredible job watching over our cat Ollie while we were out of town! I could tell she genuinely cared about him and wanted him to feel comfortable and loved while we were away. She did a great job caring for him, ensuring we were comfortable and giving us updates along the way. It was so comforting knowing Genie was there to check in on him and made us feel so much more secure on our trip. Thank you so much Genie!!

This was our first time using Caitlin as our dog walker and we were very happy with her. She was extremely reliable and left us lots of photos each day. She kept us updated on what our pup was up to and Izzy was well cared for in her hands.

Molly was in great hands today! It was too cold to go walk outside so Alayna played with Molly inside, gave her treats, and took the most adorable photos of Molly to let me know Molly was in good hands. She did an awesome job!!

We had a wonderful experience with Samantha! She took such great care of our three dogs while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and genuinely kind. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent. They gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile while we were away. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and would absolutely love to have her watch them again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Samantha was excellent as always! This is our fourth or fifth time having Samantha care for our senior cats and we never have to worry. She communicates after each drop in, messages with questions, and makes sure our girls get their meds even if they’re hiding. We will continue booking with Samantha and highly recommend her!

Sarah always does an amazing job with my 3 year old beagle Molly. She feeds Molly her food as directed and takes her for walks and plays with her. I never worry about Molly when I’m gone from the house when I know Sarah will be coming to check on her. She also gets the best pics of Molly when she is here and sends them to me so I know Molly is doing well while I’m gone. Sarah truly does a fantastic job!

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was 10 and have always had one or two dogs living in my house. I've raised several dogs and cared for them from puppy stages to their senior years. I've owned and cared for many breeds from golden retrievers to pitties, Chihuahuas and shepherds. I have never met a dog that hasn't become my friend. I run my own business in the evenings during the week but am available before 4pm during the weekdays and can be available all day on weekends. Your house your rules, tell me exactly how you want your dog cared for and I'll have no problem providing that service. From walks to playing with them in a yard to cleaning up after them.

This was the first time Callahan looked after my pets, and she did a great job. She sent me photos and check in times and when I return, my pets were happy and while taking care of, I will definitely hire her to take care of my pets again when I’m out of town. Thank you very much Callahan for taking care of my babies.

Our big girl was diagnosed with diabetes earlier this year and we couldn’t get family and friends to agree to give her her insulin shot when we needed someone to come let the dogs in and out and feed them on occasion. I turned to Rover to see if we could find someone to do it. I chose Lauren, and she was willing and able. She showed up right on time, and took care of the dogs for us. We will be scheduling with her again in the future and are very excited that we can do day trips again and not have to worry about our big girl getting her meds properly! Thanks Lauren, you are so very much appreciated!
