Thomas is awesome! He came over to meet our dogs before booking to make sure it was a good fit. He is communicative, friendly, great with the dogs, and gave great updates while we were gone. Our dogs love him and we hope to have him back!

Allison was fantastic! She was great with my cat and communicated everything with my clearly while I was away. I got a lot of cute photos of my cat, and when I got home I could tell she had gotten a lot of love and attention.

Riah was amazing with our nervous dog, Rue. Rue often takes a little time to warm up to new people, and she seemed to feel comfortable with Riah right away--it's clear she has great experience with dogs that need a little extra time and attention. She stayed at our house for a full week and provided excellent care. We will definitely reach out to her again for future stays. She was responsive, left our house in perfect condition, and provided daily updates on Rue with pictures. We could not have asked for a better sitter experience. We would recommend her services!

Quinn did an excellent job watching my doggo Kanna. They were really responsive and I appreciated the lovely photos they sent. Kanna got to go on a really long walk at a local park which she surely loved. Quinn super exceeded my expectations in all areas and I'm grateful they could watch kanna for her first time in a new house while I was away.

About: I have many years experience with many kind of animals, as well as taking care of senior cats and dogs with health issues and medication needs. I'm have also worked with and owned rescue pets who need careful awarenes to understand triggers. I hold a Pet CPR and First Aid certification through American Redcross, and have volunteered at a human society for several years. I will get to know your pets special personalities, and know how important it is to maintain their regular routines! I work full time, but live and work in the neighborhood. My range is set close so that I can take a break and come check in on, walk, feed and play with your pets! I'm flexible with times throughout the day, very reliable and I enjoy getting to know neighbors and their pets. I love getting to spend more time with animals as I am currently petless for the first time in years! I follow instructions well and make sure to follow all directions to provide your pet with the routine they rely on. I know how important it is to maintain that routine while your pet is stressed with your absence, but still it fun! I have watched others animals for years, and have consistently been told that folks wouldn't trust anyone else! I also have had and taken care of multiple rescue animals with triggers and can learn how to recognize and adapt to make them feel safe.

Julie did such a wonderful job watching after Tony while I was at work all week. Every day she showed such an incredible level of care for my pup that cannot be overstated. I was truly able to be at ease every day knowing that he was so well taken care of. I also appreciated her updates throughout the day as well as her level of communication by making sure Tony’s care plan was constantly attended to. She also respected our home while she was here and kept everything neat and clean. We will definitely be requesting her again in the future!

Emily was very accommodating for my very last minute request. She was able to come over the day I left and got along just great with my dog Bandit.🙂 I received daily pictures of Bandit out and about and was able to communicate that a Chewy shipment had arrived. Emily was able to go get it and provide new treats to Bandit. Emily is very friendly, easy to talk and text with, and was able to give me any updates I requested. She was even able to work with another Rover pet sitter to switch off for a second week, coordinating key hand-off. Fortunately, I'd used the other sitter before, so introductions with Bandit were unnecessary. I will definitely use Emily again, assuming Bandit is still around that long. He is 15 already. 😕 Thanks Emily!

Desiree and Lucas took amazing care of our dog (and house) while we were away for 3 weeks. They did a great job of learning our routines ahead of time. Their communication was fantastic with daily updates with pictures of their walks and other adventures with our dog. Perhaps most importantly, it was obvious when we returned home that our dog adored them and his experience with them was wonderful. They also did a superb job of taking care of our home and yard while we were away. They have earned our complete trust and we would absolutely work with them again and have our highest recommendation.

Yali was an absolute lifesaver! We needed a pet sitter on very short notice, and she stepped in without hesitation. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals, and our cat took to her right away. She kept us updated with messages and photos, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we got home, our cat was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared, which says a lot, since cats can be pretty selective about people! We’re so grateful for Yali’s kindness, reliability, and the incredible care she gave our cat. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will treat your pet like family, we couldn’t recommend Yali more highly. She truly went above and beyond, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!

Wow. So very pleased with the experience of having Liberty and Caleb stay with and care for our pets while we were out of town recently. From the outset they were proactive and clear with communications, and were easy to schedule with. When we did our meet and greet, both were caring and interested in our pets’ needs and personalities, and I saw that they both have really great pet energy. Our pup Atari can be a bit difficult about doing her poop walks with anyone who isn’t us, and the way they handled communication with us and with Atari was so conscientious, caring, and present. They respected our home too - we came home to clean dishes and happy pets, but they also went above and beyond and left a sweet note and gift for Cora and Atari! Highly recommend, your pets will be in good hands with Liberty and Caleb.

Michael was the best sitter and a friend that Rio and I could as for. He was professional, timely and consistent with communication/updates. One thing I liked about is his thoroughness and following them through promptly because Rio has special needs. He was patient and considerate. I was able to finish my trip without worrying about Rio's state because I knew he was in safe hands. I would highly recommend Michael to any future client looking for a trustworthy sitter.
