Nejra is the best!! She was amazing with my cat and he loved spending time with her! She even went out of her way to clean up messes he would create as cats do. Also cleaned the litter box for me as I was gone. She helped ease the anxiety of leaving my pet alone. Would recommend to anyone needing a pet sitter!

Monica was a great sitter for me. This was my first time using the app and was a little worried leaving my pups with a stranger. One of mine can be kind of a handful as well lol. Monica took all those fears away by being very communicative, taking pictures and asking plenty of questions. I could tell that she really cared for how my dogs felt, not just letting them in and out of the house. Can’t wait to hire Monica again!

Arielle did great, would definitely book her again. She stopped by daily for a week to feed and check in on our cat while we were out of town. Her check in reports were very detailed and she sent plenty of pictures so that we could tell the cat was doing well, and she spent the entire time we booked her with the cat, giving plenty of snuggles in our absence after she was done with feeding, water refresh and litter box cleaning.

Troy has been nothing but amazing, not only with our dog but with everything he does! Our pup is a bit people selective and moose was comfortable in no time due to Troy being patient and knowledgeable about how to handle a more reactive dog. My husband and I would 100% recommend him to take care of your furry friend too! He is always on time and makes sure he leaves the house cleaner then when he got there!

Dawn is outstanding! We were nervous to let someone into our home to check on our two kitties each day during our two-week vacation. Dawn made the entire process easy and comforting from beginning to end. After the meet and great, we knew our kitties were in good hands. She provided detailed and personalized updates each day and sent photos. While our cats are typically apprehensive of strangers, Dawn took the time to develop a connection with both of them, adjusting food requirements, brushing and playing with them. She even watered the house plants for us. We never worried for a minute while away. We feel very fortunate to have found Dawn and will certainly recommend her to our family and friends, Thank you, Dawn!!

About: I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs, from the excitable to the scared. These incredible friends and family are very in tune with our energy, so make sure you’re bringing kind and loving people into their lives- and that’s me! It has been a pleasure and joy to meet so many wonderful animal friends and get to care for them! When I used to go parties, you could almost guarantee I’d be in the corner having found the furry or feathered family member, often hearing “they don’t usually like new people!”. I love to hang out with these friends- plenty of pets, toys, and walks- and lots of snuggles if they want them! I was also given the opportunity to help move a dog to the Middle East when the owner was nervous about moving and having to start immediately, so I was able to help with the transition with walks, food, comfort, and discovering a new country to help him feel safe and taken care of- and help his owner be at peace that he was being taken care of properly. I also have experience with dogs with arthritis and seizures. I am always honored to get to spend time with them! I am an artist with flexible schedule and always welcome a break to hang out with some awesome fur babies! I also share custody of my preschooler, so depending on the evening, I may have different options for time and I’m available every other weekend! I take being in peoples homes very seriously- I respect their space and make sure to follow instructions for the safety of the fur babies and myself! As someone in her late 30s, I have found that cleaning up as I go and using common sense and past experiences serve me well when no instructions are given for different situations.

About: Hey there! I’m Rachel and I’ve had a family dog for as long as I can remember. But now I have a family of my own- my partner and I have 4 kids and a mini zoo with 1 bunny, 2 ball pythons, 1 bearded dragon, 2 dogs, 4 cats, 6 mourning geckos and 6 aquariums with fish, snails, dwarf crayfish and shrimp. So, I have a lot of experience with a wide range of animals. Since I’ve started pet sitting on Rover I’ve also gained experience with raw feeding cats and dogs, chicken wrangling, mini home repairs, tree moving, raspberry picking and goose whispering. I used to volunteer every day at the local animal shelter while I was in highschool where I got tons of experience with all types of dogs and frequently helped out the neighbors with their escape artist husky! I previously worked as an assistant dog trainer. I’ve gotten tons of experience with how to better read animal’s body language, create and maintained presence control and facilitate healthy play. While most of my experience is with dogs, I am a true animal lover. One of the biggest perks of having me as your sitter is that our whole family helps take part. My 15 year old, Bella, is usually heavily involved in the care of the animals we sit. My other 3 younger kids also absolute love to take care of and play with all the animals. If your pets like to hang out and play with kids, get attention all day long… your pets are in for a treat with us! (For boarding) We truly strive to give dogs a home-away-from-home experience where they just jump right into our routine. Most of the time they end up sleeping in bed with one of our kids, playing with us outside, getting loves on the couch- all the stuff a family dog can expect. We stand proudly in our family beliefs of qualify pet care and don’t want to be a boarding spot where they put your animal in a kennel, let them out twice a day and charge you extra for playtime or potty breaks. (For pet sitting at home): We do come and go more often when we are sitting pets at their own home but we still make it a family affair. We make sure to drop-in frequently to check on them, feed them, let them out and play with them! Bella loves to hang out with our pet clients and play with them. Sometimes I bring a different kiddo to stay the night with me each night so that they all get a chance to give individual attention to the animals we are watching. We also watch over the house and property. At one pet sit, there was a storm that ran through and a massive branch broke into the pet parent’s driveway, front yard, sidewalk and street! After we notified the owners, Bella and I got it moved out of the way of the street and sidewalk so the pet parents didn’t have to worry about it until they got home. We understand that pet sitting is more than just watching the pets at home and we like to provide a holistic approach. My wife, Leigh also cleans and manages houses when she isn’t at home with our kids. She was the manager and trainer at a locally owned high-end home management company for many years. If you want your house cleaned or you have an organizational project you want completed while you’re gone, let me know! Leigh would be happy to chat with you, figure out what you’re wanting accomplished and get it done while you’re gone. She’s got a plethora of clients who continue to be impressed with her work and ask her to come back as proof of a job well done- so it’s not just my (possibly biased) opinion. 😉 I work as a school bus driver primarily so it leaves my summer & most major holidays pretty open! When I am at work my wife is usually home with some or all of the kids, so even when I’m busy- we have the ability to care for pets. I am pretty flexible but my main priority is making sure I am respectful of your space as much as I would want someone to be respectful of mine. Taking photos and communicating heavily with pet parents is top priority for me. If you wish to have less communication, just let me know so I don’t send too many cute pictures of your pets! I know what a big deal it is to leave my pets in the care of someone else and as a result, I take the responsibility very seriously myself.

I was also given the opportunity to help move a dog to the Middle East when the owner was nervous about moving and having to start immediately, so I was able to help with the transition with walks, food, comfort, and discovering a new country to help him feel safe and taken care of- and help his owner be at peace that he was being taken care of properly. I also have experience with dogs with arthritis and seizures. I am always honored to get to spend time with them! I am an artist with flexible schedule and always welcome a break to hang out with some awesome fur babies! I also share custody of my preschooler, so depending on the evening, I may have different options for time and I’m available every other weekend! I take being in peoples homes very seriously- I respect their space and make sure to follow instructions for the safety of the fur babies and myself! As someone in her late 30s, I have found that cleaning up as I go and using common sense and past experiences serve me well when no instructions are given for different situations.

Rachel is very passionate about dogs and it is clear when you see her work with them. She has taken great care of my animals in the past and I would recommend her to any of my friends in the future. Rachel goes above and beyond to meet the dog’s needs and communicate with me as the owner.
