Brooklin went out of her way to meet me and Sophie so she was prepared to watch and cater to her. Sophie took to Brooklin instantly! Sophie is big and sometimes reactive dog and I felt comfortable leaving her with Brooklin. 10/10 would absolutely recommend Brooklin to watch your pet!

Kary was incredible to say the least. Our dogs haven't been left with a sitter for over a year and we are so glad to have found Kary. She really does love the pets that she sits for and we are so thankful she loves on ours while we were out of town.

Ginni really loves animals, which is comforting when you have to leave them. She bonded with my animals and took good care of them. They were happy when we got back, and not displaying any evidence of stress. Ginni is also very flexible and accommodating, and was able to help us over the major holiday of Christmas at the last minute. You can trust your pets will be in good care with a responsible sitter if you work with Ginni.

Kelly, is great. Very flexible, responsive and accommodating. She stayed with our mutts while we attended a wedding and reception in Maggie Valley, NC. We would definitely use her again, highly recommended.

Danielle, Brodin and Chia are awesome people and dog. I asked to them to watch my little girl at last minute, what I never do because I like to meet up the people who will watch zoey first but it was one emergency. I never met them but as soon I saw them I knew I could trust my dog with them because they have such a GREAT vibe and I could see their daughter chia (dog) was really well cared and sweet. My little girl zoey got home so happy and really tired so I could see she had a wonderful time. Thanks Danielle, Borodin and Chia. We are definitely going to contact you guys again I am sure zoey is looking forward to play with her friend chia again. Thanks thanks thanks

Wonderful attitude very professional. Totally we’re at ease knowing Briana was there. Our fussy Calico accepted her attention from the get go. Even laid on her lap like she does with us. We have no reservations calling on her in the future. Great job with all our appreciation.

Jazmyne is easily one of the best dog sitters we have used in the almost 4 years we have been using Rover. Both of our boys immediately took to her and that almost never happens. We have one very skittish standard schnauzer and he didn’t leave Jazmyne’s side the entire time she was here. She’s professional and sweet and I can’t recommend her enough. If you need to go out of town or just need to get stuff done, do yourself a favor and hire Jazmyne. You won’t be mistaken. Thank you Jazmyne for everything! We will see you again soon!

Ashlyn was great! She did an in-home sit for our 1yr old golden retriever. She communicated great and loved the videos that she sent. Hopefully, I’ll be able to book for upcoming vacations.

Sarah is one of the best sitters on Rover! (I am reluctant to say that only because she will get very, very busy and may not have availability when Lassie Girl needs her!) Lassie just loved spending time with her! Sarah took her for walks in the park and was on time for meeting with us as well as managing Lassie's feeding schedule. We are so grateful for her and so is Lassie.

Ciara “Caroline” Was Fantastic. We had a sitter cancel at the Minute and Caroline was flexible with her schedule to accommodate our absence. Our Dog and Cat both Loved Caroline from the moment she walked in the door. She was great at keeping us informed on their activities and quickly responsive to any messages sent to her. I will Definitely use her again, and our animals I’m sure are looking forward to seeing her again.

About: I have been dog sitting since I was a kid. I can take care of up to three dogs and I have experience with senior pups. I am very good at sneaking in meds with the treats. I love to walk and hike so your pups will get plenty of play time! I just graduated from college and I am taking a gap year so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your babies! I have three cats at home so I cannot bring any pups to my home, but I am from Sylva so I am really comfortable house sitting. I have house sat for people all over Jackson County and I have reliable means of transportation to make sure your house & pups are happy and safe!

Sarah Jane has loved animals her whole life and they love her. From a young age she has been responsible and caring of animals. She has cared for friends, family and neighbors pets. She has also been a very good pet owner of parakeets, fish, dogs, cats and squirrels. Our pets are always in good hands and get plenty of love and attention from her.

Really appreciate Amanda staying with out boys while we took a short little vacation. She took them for a swim in the river by our house and it's obvious that they were well taken care of while we were gone. She also sent us pics of them enjoying themselves while we were gone. It was also clear that she also took the time to straighten up the house and vacuum before we got back. Would highly recommend her and will definitely look to her again for our next trip.

Lydia is one of the hardest workers I know in any field she is in. I have personally seen her work with and take care of many animals and besides being excellent at it, she actually really enjoys the work as well. She would be an excellent addition to your team and you would be hard-pressed to find a better worker.
