Mindy was communicative, friendly, helpful and responsive to questions. I enjoyed meeting her in person for a face to face before the overnight; my fur kids are happy and content after her stay. House was just like I left it. Thank you for a good experience Mindy! Will reach out again next time I need a hand with Remi and Sadi.

Emma stayed with our dog Cookie and our two chinchillas for a couple of days in our home. She is very conscientious and communicates well. We always feel very confident and satisfied with the care given when Emma is sitting for us. Thank you Emma!!

Michelle was great with our dog, Duke. This is the second time she watched him, and he was SO excited to see her! Unfortunately, our address wasn't updated in Rover and so she had to go across town out of her way first before coming to the correct address. Despite our inconveniencing her, she was still willing to stay a little late if we needed her to. We really appreciated her patience with both US and with Duke :)

Tanya provided exceptional care for our cat and two dogs while staying over a long holiday weekend in our home. She asked excellent questions during our "meet and greet," so when it came time for us to leave our animals we knew they were in good hands. She arrived to house sit early afternoon on Friday and left late on Monday to accommodate our travel schedule. Our animals each have particular needs and personality quirks. For instance, we have one high energy dog that requires oral medication, frequent potty breaks, and long walks. Our other dog is content sleeping all day and needs to be convinced to take short walks! Plus, the energetic dog will eat the lazy dog's food if given the opportunity, so we feed them separately. Then, our cat is low maintenance, but still needs food, water, affection, and to have her box cleaned daily. Finally, the dogs wake up at 5am for breakfast (whether we're awake or not). Caring for the three of them is a lot of work and Tanya did a great job attending to their needs! We came home from vacation to happy, heathy pets and a clean house. We could not have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Tanya and would absolutely employ her services again.

About: I have had a dog in my household that I have lived and taken care of as far back as I can remember. I have also done many dog sitting jobs. As a college athlete at Parkland College, I’m used to balancing a busy schedule and staying organized. During off-season, I have flexible availability and can easily plan pet care around my day to day activities! I follow each pets normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I stick to feeding schedules, provide exercise and playtime, and give plenty of attention. I also keep owners updated for peace of mind.

Katie was an all star sitter. She was so good with our dog Callie when we were gone. She sent us regular updates, lots of photos and videos of Callie having a great time, and she left our house spotless. Could not ask for a better sitter, we will definitely be asking her to sit again!

I have used Rover several times throughout my dog’s 10 years and have NEVER seen her warm up (and calm down) to someone the way she did with Milo, which speaks volumes about how Milo handles animals with care and compassion. We came home to two very content animals after being away for a couple of nights and booking at the last minute, and Milo was also super respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend, and I know Milo is going to make an amazing vet tech!

Patrick housesat and watched our dog and kitten over the Christmas holidays. He sent us daily photos and prompt messages. On very short notice he was able to stay an extra night due to our travel delays. We would definitely schedule again for any future pet sitting 😊

Madeline took the best care of our pups while we went away for the weekend. We even had an incident that happened with our husky where we found a cyst that was infected right before we left and he had to take 5 medications and she didn’t mind following all my notes and giving him his meds twice a day. It was overwhelming to me, but Madeline handled it with ease:) she sent us pics daily and I’m already looking to book her again in the near future. Thanks Madeline!
