“First time booking on Rover. Elaine is very accommodating and I was able to book her on short notice. I have a six month old pug puppy who is very energetic and just got a neuter surgery, and she was able to accommodate his needs and care for him. She sent photos while I was away, mainly of him napping so I know he was tired out. She provided feedback on his pulling behaviors on walks and suggested different types of harnesses. I will definitely book her again, and thank you, Elaine!”
“Fantastic sitters, once again! This was the second time I boarded Charlotte with Christine and Addison, and they went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and content. They even saved me from the dreaded task of cleaning the gunk out of her hairless cat ears! You two are gems!”

“Maria and Michael watched our two Shibas for 4 days and they were amazing! We met them first so our dogs could get familiar with them and their apartment, which is really helpful as one of our dogs is anxious around new people. They took great care of both our pups and were accomodating towards our dog's weird quirks. We got lots of pictures throughout the stay, and our dogs clearly had an amazing time staying with them. We will definitely be using Maria and Michael again, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy dog sitters!”

“Joe was fantastic with our cat Hazel. He was extremely communicative, stopped by in person for a meeting before we left, and sent great pictures every time he stopped in. Hazel loves people but she LOVED him.”
“Brandon took care of my two cats for a week and stayed at my place while doing so. He met me beforehand to figure out what all needed to be done, sent me pictures of the cats almost every day I was away, and left the apartment in immaculate condition. In fact, I'm pretty sure he even cleaned the kitchen sink and toilet before leaving. It's clear from talking with Brandon that he's both very caring toward animals as well as very thoughtful in how to care for other people's pets. I would definitely reach out to him again in the future.”

About: I've grown up with family dogs and pets. I currently have a golden doodle named Moose. I love to be active and I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds! I am an elementary teacher and finish my day around 4pm. I understand how stressful it is to leave your fur babies at home while you are stuck at work. I would love to alleviate some of your stresses by giving your pet love, exercise, and attention! It also helps me destress after a long day. I love to go on long walks, specifically in green spaces. I will treat your pet as if they are my own and give them the time and attention they deserve. I will keep you updated throughout the service and send lots of pictures.
