Christie did a wonderful job looking after my 2 kitties :) One of my cats is asthmatic and requires the inhaler and she did a great job making sure he got it! Even my other shy kitty came out to play with her-Christie is a cat whisperer!! Would highly recommend Christie and will definitely be using her again for future trips away!!

Annie did a terrific job watching our two energetic dogs. She walked them twice a day and sent pictures regularly. She helped by watering a few delicate plants we have. She was great to communicate with and very reliable.

Bri did a wonderful job of looking after my two senior kitties! She was attentive and left thorough updates for me to read. I got a lot of peace of mind from knowing my boys were in such good hands

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for my entire life which has given me many skills that I now share with other dog owners. I am very comfortable with walks, playtime, and routines for dogs of all ages and personalities. I love exercising and going on long walks, so I can accommodate for any walking needs. I will be sure to give your dog the attention they need while keeping owners updated with pictures so you know that your dog is having a safe and fun time! I am a college student home for the summer, so I am available all day during the week to care for and/or walk your pup! As a lifelong dog owner, I will be sure to treat your dog and your space with the same respect and care that I would my own.

Eleanor did an amazing job taking care of our cat Jax that is facing kidney issues. Jax requires multiple oral medicines as well as an IV injection daily, neither of which he is a fan of, but Eleanor was able to swaddle him, administer his medicines, and make it as painless as possible. Would definitely recommend.

Skylar did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats while I was away for 2 weeks on business. My cats warmed up to her quickly. The care was complicated by some medical issues with my cats, and the fact that I had just recently moved to a new place, but she handled everything fantastically and kept the cats happy and healthy

About: I have a love and passion for animals ever since I was little. I love taking long walks, loving, and caring for every breed imaginable I’m currently finishing up my prerequisites for nursing school this spring, so this would be an amazing job and opportunity for me to branch out into something different before committing to the medical field as a nurse. Comfortability between the animal and the sitter is incredibly important. We have a completely fenced in yard and the dogs are on leashes if they are not in the me backyard. Giving them an extra love and encouragement while you’re away is my main goal.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for about 10 years now. I have worked with some police officers and with world famous dog trainers. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and will be more than happy to spend time with yours. I love to play and go on long walks. I am more than happy and willing to spend time with your pet all day. I can provide great references as well. I work full time hours but I only work 14 days a month so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets! I have my own cat at home so I understand how much our pets mean to us. I offer plenty of walks/playtime to keep your animals happy and healthy!

Breanna is fantastic with our puppy! He loves her visits and she is always prompt and communicative. Her visit notes are detailed and she sends cute pictures! She has even worked on a little training during the drop ins and taught our puppy to go in the crate on command! We highly recommend Breanna.

About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have only guinea pigs now, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid and have walked dogs and pet sat through high school and college. I am excited to meet your pups! I am home for the summer before I start a full-time job. I have tons of dog walking availability between studying for the LSAT and I am super flexible! I am happy to feed, walk, crate, and play with your pups while you’re away. I love long walks and can follow any directions you leave me.

This was my first time ever using Rover & I’m so happy that I chose Amanda. First of all, it was a last minute request and she was kind enough to squeeze us in. She took such good care of Peggie & sent the most adorable picture of Peggie. I cannot thank Amanda enough and I will definitely have Amanda watch Peggie every chance I could!

Jordan did an amazing job watching Penny! We needed a sitter fairly last minute. We just moved and are too far to use our old boarding accommodations. Since we’d never used Rover before, Jordan gave us all the info we needed about how it all worked. Penny loved meeting Jordan and was excited to see her each visit. We’d definitely use Jordan again!

This was just our first meeting with Annie, but she seems to have a very calm demeanor that I believe will be a good match for my high arousal reactive dog. I look forward to working with her more in the future.
