We started using rover because we got our new dachshund puppy a few weeks ago. We wanted someone to help us keep up with his training when we both worked. Jade has been such a big help with Murphy’s training! She’s gone above and beyond what we expected of her and we are excited to keep having her help us! She’s great!

About: I have 15 years of pet care experience. Growing up my grandmother always needed help with her cat and dog, whether it was feeding them or walking Spuds! I have experience in bathing both cats and dogs and I personally give my cats a quarterly wash-down. I am comfortable with administering topical ointments or giving shots if needed. I assisted many times with my local TNR program and have great experience with cats specifically. I am currently a part-time student and working an internship that is based on the EST time zone. So I am up early and ready to go at all hours. I am work from home and my classes are also online so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I will always animal proof homes regardless if it’s mine or not. Pets having access to fresh water is always a must. Caring for pets is a case by case as all of them have their own personalities! If they need quiet, that’s cool or if they’re more rowdy I can get down with that too!

Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!

I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!

Thelma is a nervous dog, Ashliegh did a great job letting Thelma get comfortable with her during the meet and greet. Judging by the photos, Thelma felt quite at ease during the drop in!

About: I grew up with dogs but now I take care of other people’s dogs! Been dog sitting since 2020 and I have many regular families that love me! I work two part time flexible schedule jobs so I have lots of free time where I check on animals or go for a quick walk/feed! I personally don’t take animals to my own space unless needed, but I will stay the night if you want and always follow detailed instructions!

About: I love animals of all kinds! At home, I have one dog, Stryker, one cat, Kimber, and two pet rats, Top and Henry. I have also previously had an aquarium with some tetra fish :) I am currently studying zoology, so I am always around animals of all shapes and sizes! From my schooling and previous work, I have experience with puppies, adult and senior dogs, small birds, cats, small mammals (ferrets, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits), goats, chicken, reptile, and some fish and amphibian experience. I also have experience with pets who have strict diets, medication, take live food, and other dietary issues. I am a full time student at Otterbein University, with a part time job on campus. I am available on weekends and most week nights. I am flexible and can work with you, so that we can find the perfect schedule for your furry friend! I am a reliable, responsible and respectful individual. My mission is to make your pet feel as loved by me as they do by you, while respecting your space, your rules and most importantly your pet!

This was my first time ever using a petsitter. I was worried that with Lily needing a pill crushed up and added to her food that it was going to be hard to find someone. Chloe was amazing. I gave her all the instructions, showed her where everything was and she showed up on time for each meal. We take weekend trips here and there and I'm hoping this will be the start of a great connection for Lily and Mistletoe.

Charity is an absolute godsend! I had a problem with this last-minute trip this weekend, and I had not called her to cover taken care of my three cats, because I do have a feeder Robot for short term trips… However, we had a power outage, and that resets the machine, and it no longer turns on after that, and my boys were gonna be hungry! I called her at the last minute to see if she could be there for two days, and she replied positively which was wonderful! Unfortunately, we had a whole mess load of snow after I left, which cost her family some issues, and she had to take care of some stuff, but she still got to me and the boys and got them fed and watered, and I so appreciate that… Family comes first in my book, but even after she got done that she still got to me and that’s so wonderful And I can’t thank her enough for all she does! If you need somebody, reliable, and Great with your animals, don’t hesitate to ask her to sit for you!
