Jared and his dog Charlie were great. He was quick with communication and provided daily updates. Bruno had a wonderful time playing and snuggling with Charlie. He has a fenced in yard for Bruno to run around. Their location is right in town so very convenient. Would recommend!

I was so worried as a first timer using rover. Liam set my mind at ease the moment he greeted me. Helped me out on a short notice situation and I couldn’t be happier that it all worked out with Liam. Thank you!

Lisa is the bees knees!!! She was so communicative and accommodating. I was nervous but in a pinch and needed to put my trust in someone to watch a very special member of my family. She exceeded any and all expectations I could have had. She was personable and friendly to me too. What an absolute pleasure. Thank you Lisa!!!!!

Kimberly and Jeremy helped me out in a pinch and I could not have asked for more! The dogs were integrated into the household almost immediately. They even handled some dog/cat challenges with ease and grace. I would go back to this lovely family in a heartbeat!

Ginger is amazing! Finn felt right at home with her and the wonderful care she provided. I cannot recommend her enough! She will always be my go to pet sitter moving forward. Daily pics/videos were provided and I had absolutely no worries the week I was out of town. I can’t thank her enough for the TLC she provided to my little boy!

Martina and Corey are beyond exceptional! They took incredible care of my two dogs and kept me updated throughout my dogs stay at their house! Normally I’m a little apprehensive when I drop my boys off, but Martina, Corey, kids , Ella, and Veda all were so warm and welcoming. When it comes to Martina and Corey, do no hesitate or wait, book with them!

Deb was a 10/10 sitter for our pup! She is everything you would want in someone who is caring for your animal. She takes them in as if they are her own. Our minds were at ease for our dog’s entire stay - she was so caring and sent picture updates to let us know how he was doing. We will definitely be using Deb again in the future!

About: Previous dog owner. My pup passed away from cancer a year ago. She survived it the first time with a surgery that removed her jaw, but it came back 2 years later. Looking to fill my pup cup and help you with walking your dog it watching when while you're away. I work from home so I can get to your home before work, during the day, and after work. We can also take them overnights. We have a dog park next door. We love going for walks in our quiet neighborhood, which is very dog friendly. Dogs are welcome on our couch with a blanket down if they are allowed to at your home.

Excellent care and communication! We have an extremely spoiled and clingy German Shepherd who we have a hard time leaving. Jenae was awesome at calming our dog (and us) down. Great communication and pictures while we were away. Highly recommend and will happily use again for pet sitting.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I knew from a very young age that I wanted to work with animals when I grew up. Fast forward 25 years and here I am living my dream working with dogs and cats for a living! I have been a veterinary technician at an emergency animal hospital for the past 8 years. My job as a veterinary nurse has prepared me to handle all kinds of animals; including elderly, diabetic, epileptic, aggressive, or any other kind of special need your pet may have. Your pet is in good hands with me! I currently work full time as a licensed veterinary technician. I work 3 nights a week, so have plenty of free time to help take care of your animals! I am a very respectful individual and will follow any and all requests by the client. Safety is my top concern for any pet I care for.

First time finding Bob on Rover and it’s a great thing we did. He did an outstanding job taking care of our sweet Daphne, treating her like one of his own. We were more than comfortable leaving her in his care. He kept us up to date with pictures and was very quick to respond. We loved Bob and his sweet dog, Parker and we would highly recommend Bob.

What can I say? As usual, Kim and Daryl went above and beyond the call of duty and took care of our two rambunctious dogs for four days as if they were their own. If Kim ever leaves the area, I will have to pack up and follow her; I’ll never find as good a pet sitter in my life, I’m quite sure. Thank you, Kim and family!!!

If I could rate Angie 5+, I would! Our ACD had her first overnight stay in her entire 4-year life, and it was with Angie. Our girl is extremely high-energy and can get anxious or exhibit OCD behaviors in different situations. Angie requested a meet and greet a week before the stay so we could all be prepared correctly. Based on her questions, I knew she would provide Kora with the same love and attention she gets at home. Angie shared detailed updates with photos and made us feel confident Kora was in a loving environment that was perfect for her. We will use Angie again!
