“Emily & Eric were both friendly and very understanding to my dog’s personality and needs. They took great care of Zuri! I would have them care for Zuri again! THANK YOU.”
“Finn stayed with Carolyn for two weeks. He had such a good time that I wasn't sure he'd want to come home with me. From playing fetch outside to playing with a variety of squeaky toys, to tons of snuggles and attention, Carolyn did it all! She was in contact daily with pics and videos. I never worried for a second about how Finn was doing. She responded quickly to text messages and was a great communicator. I told her that she could spoil Finn all she wanted, and she did! But that's exactly what I want for my best buddy when I have to leave him! Thanks, Carolyn, for taking such great care of Finn! He'll be back!”
“Colleen was great! Very accommodating with scheduling, sent updates during the stay, and my guy looked like he had a great time when I picked him up. Highly recommended!”
“Steve is GREAT! Murphy was welcomed into the pack and played hard and was safe. Murphy can have some anxiety in new siuations and with new humans and pets. Steve allowed Murphy to adjust comfortably in his home with patience and love. My Muffin Man came home tired and happy! I'm so thankful and grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for Murphy for when I need to get away and 'Adult'. Thank you, Steve! I appreciate you more than you know! Murphy Hug to you,”
“Jennifer is a great communicator! I felt such at ease leaving my dog in her care. He was a happy boy when I picked him up and I loved the photos I received when she took him on walks. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jennifer and her family were really great! They took such great care of our Junie. Sent us lots of updates, photos, and videos! Made us feel at ease while on vacation. She loved playing with their dogs. She came home exhausted from all the fun she had! She’ll definitely be staying with Jennifer again next time we need to leave town!”
“Great care of our active dog. She loved her evening cuddle times and sharing a people bed after a fun day of playing with new doggie friends. As a dog mom, I appreciated the timely updates and pics. Jared was considerate of my concerns of how our dog was adapting to the new temporary home.”
“I had to leave my cat for a week while traveling for work and she did great. Leah & Chris are amazing and the cat room that they have set-up made Ellee feel at home. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Ellee, Leah & Chris!!”
“Brandi and her family were very welcoming to Rosie. I felt very at ease that she would be fine for her overnight stay. We will definitely be a return customer next time the need arises.”
“KC and her family watched over one of our dogs, Penny, for over a week. I cannot express how thankful we are to have found KC. She took in our dog as if she was one of their own. Penny went on many walks, had adventures in the backyard, and bonded with one of KC's children. When we went to pick Penny up from what turned out to be HER personal vacation, I noticed how engaged Penny was with what was going on around her. Even though she was excited to see us, I could tell how happy she was being in KC's home. I honestly think Penny exhibited some heartache for a few days afterward. We will need to book with KC again just for Penny's sake! Your pets are definitely in good hands with KC.”
“David took very good care of Cooper and Chandler. He was very understanding of both their behaviors. It is very difficult to find someone who cared, observed and communicated as clearly and frequently as David did. 5 out of 5 we would recommend him to any of our friends in the area.”
“The people in this home made Mabel feel welcomed and loved. How do I know? All of the pictures and updates Christine sent me! I was able to work out of town without worrying about my girl, Mabes. My work can be stressful, and not having to worry about Mabel means so much to me. I will definitely want Mabel to go back to Christine's home!”
“To start, Danielle had my dog for a daycare, and, everything went great. I received photos showing him walking with others and I know him well enough to know he was enjoying his time. I felt comfortable to go ahead and schedule two overnights with Danielle for him during my next work trip. Things I love about Danielle are that she really pays attention to what you say, the details. She is straightforward and not afraid to express any concerns (such as safety of certain types of collars etc.) Her communication has been excellent. She walks every day with multiple dogs and the pack is such an enjoyable place for my dog. I'm not inundated with photos, but, receive just enough to know he's doing well! We will be boarding at Danielle's as long as she'll have us 💜”
“Genevieve was fantastic and took phenomenal care of my 11 year old dog. She was super communicative, asked all the questions before hand so I felt confident leaving him with her. We FaceTimed a couple times while I was gone too so I could really see his demeanor and he was so chilled out and comfy with her, just snuggling through the morning. I would absolutely recommend Genevieve to watch friends dogs and will reach out to her in the future for any dog watching needs!!”
“What a fantastic sitter. Our little guy is very anxious and created some issues for them….. and they dealt with it with grace and professionalism. Very knowledgeable and trusted people. Regular updates, pictures and communication. Thank you so very much!”
“Our girl Tillie Bean loves to stay with Angie and has done well with her while we are away. It is such a relief knowing she is good hands and that she is having her own special getaway with Angie. Thanks for loving our special little lady🐾”
“We were very impressed with Karilla’s care for Rosie. It was an easy transition during drop off and pickup, and Karilla provided daily updates to make us feel assured that Rosie was doing well. As first-time Rover users, we were satisfied with the level of service we received and would wholeheartedly recommend Karilla to anyone.”

About: I have 5 years of experience owning and caring for my own cat, and recently I lived with two playful kittens. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving lots of love and attention.
“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”
“Tiffany was great! Our girls warmed right up to her, even the skittish one! Great communication and pics of our 2 silly calico girls. Will definitley use Tiffany again!”
“Brooke is very reliable and genuinely cares for animals. She followed our instructions exactly and communicated with us if she had a concern or question. This was Brooke’s second time caring for our cat and if needed we would love to have her back!”
“Sammy was an amazing cat sitter and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly kind and clearly has a natural way with animals. My cats are usually very shy and take a long time to warm up to new people, but they were comfortable with her almost immediately, which says a lot. She kept me updated while I was away and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Sammy to watch my cats again in the future!”
“I was so happy to get updates and photos every day! It made me feel like she was in good hands, and I liked the reminder she was doing well. It sounds like my cat had a great time and was entertained during her stay. Thank you!”
“Michaela was flexible, communicative and a good listener, thorough and conscientious. We appreciated knowing that our animals were well cared for while out of town. Highly recommended.”
“Francisca watched over my two cats for 9 days and I couldn’t have picked a better person for the job. She dropped by twice a day making sure their food and water were full while also making time to pet and play with them. Her communication throughout the time was excellent and she also provided multiple pictures of the cats for each visit. I highly recommended Francisca if you are looking for a responsible pet sitter. I definitely will be utilizing her services again.”
“Kassandra was amazing. We have tried a few rovers over the past few years and although they have all got the job done, I felt like Kassandra definitely stands out. I appreciated her clear communication and the care she gave was on point. Each visit gave us detailed messages about her visit and how the cats were doing. She sent us pictures and answered all questions we might have had. She helped me feel at ease and I plan to use her again. I would highly recommend.”
“Jenny is so great with our cats! We were nervous to leave because our senior cat needs to take a pill and other medication daily, but Jenny was great with handling it while we were gone. I know I’ll be using her services again!”
About: I haven't had as much experience caring for cats outside of my own as I have with dogs. I have had my own cat for 10 years, but as any cat parent knows, each cat has a very unique personality. I look forward to gaining new experience in caring for cats, and I am confident in my ability to do so.
“Jessica was an amazing pet sitter! She was very attentive and left thorough notes in the Rover cards. It was so nice to take a vacation and not worry about our pets!”
About: I grew up with cats in the home and had experience taking care of them, cleaning up after them and feeding them.. I have two of my own cats, both 1 year old. I got my first kitty when she was 5 weeks old and adopted my second one from the humane society at 3 months old. they are my pride and joy 🐈

“Araceli was so great with Rocky… she kept me posted on how he was doing and sent me the cutest video and pic of my lil guy… it is so great to be able to be at work and not have to worry about how Rocky is doing. I would highly recommend Araceli for watching your furry baby. Araceli thank you for putting my worries at ease…”
“Brandi and her husband took care of Sparky and Remi really well. I’m glad they played together whole time with Brandi’s pup, Nala. We definitely will request another daycare service from Brandi if we need!!”
“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party. We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected. Our fur babies were obviously very comfortable in their home because they are so calm in their crates in the car at the moment. We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”
“Jenny was great! She was able to accept a very last minute request for doggie daycare. My pups came home last night and they are still snoozy today. I will definitely use Jenny again! :)”
“Jared was an excellent sitter! Both my Papillons seemed to have a great time with Jared, Bartholomew, and their cats. Communication was smooth and timely throughout. I would be happy to bring my furry babies to Jared again. Highly recommended!”
“Genevieve went above and beyond for me and my dog today. It was a last minute request for a new dog to spend the day with her and because I wouldn't be able to drive in the evening she dropped him off for me. So unbelievably helpful. I got pictures of him having way too much fun and I could tell when she was leaving how much he liked her. Knowing he was being so taken care of today made things so much easier. Thank you”
About: Hi! I’m Megan and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I got my very first dog when I was 7, and ever since then, dogs and cats have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, my family always had 1–2 dogs in the house, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Now, I share my home with a sweet dog and a cuddly cat, and I truly love giving them all the attention and care they need. When your pet stays with me, you can expect: - Lots of love, attention, and snuggles - Daily updates and cute photos - Clear, friendly communication - A safe, comfortable home where they’ll be treated like family I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your pets, so I’ll always go the extra mile to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and cared for like my own. I work from home, so I can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Every 3–4 hours, we take walks around the neighborhood, and in the evenings, when the weather is nice, we head to our neighborhood dog park for some extra playtime. For kitties, I make sure they get plenty of indoor adventures to keep them happy and entertained. I live in a gated neighborhood, and there’s a fenced dog park just downstairs from my apartment, so dogs can safely enjoy walks and playtime. For cats, I make sure they have a safe indoor space to explore, and all our windows have secure screens so there’s no worry about them sneaking out.
About: I have taken care of dogs, horses, and other farm animals since I was 7 years old. I grew up in a family with four big dogs and spent a lot of time training them in agility, helping at equestrian centers and other farms where I encountered and worked with all different kinds of working dogs, and spent years studying dog training, grooming, and handling. I currently have a highly reactive Pyrenees/German Shepherd who has allowed me to find a new passion in more deeply figuring out how different kinds of animals' minds work and learn to cater to their varying needs and learning styles, a mini Aussie who I am now working with in the beginning stages of agility training and having fun learning all sorts of different types of obedience and tricks with, and an Aussie/Pyr newly 1 year old who is already my best mountain biking buddy and has had a very strong start with agility training. I have also raised a litter of 10 puppies, so I am experienced and comfortable with dogs of any age. Their worlds are only as big as we make them, and they deserve all the love and experiences they can get! I work remotely, so my schedule is fully flexible most days. I have to schedule meet & greets and start/end times around my meeting schedule daily, but once I am there can cater to whatever you dog’s daily schedule need is I will follow any directions you leave me, from crating, feeding, and play/cuddle time instructions if I am sitting, or whatever sort of walking specifications or request you have to best to cater to you dog if I am only taking him/her on walks.
About: I am a nurse, but I have always wanted to work with dogs, and I see this Pet Care opportunity as a chance to fulfill my childhood dream. I'm thrilled with this pet care opportunity because of my deep love for animals. I believe my nursing experience will be valuable, as caring for patients has taught me compassion and attention to detail, which I hope to bring to the pets in your care. I would love to contribute to your team and learn from your experiences in pet care. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to connecting and sharing our mutual enthusiasm for animals. I am happy to adjust my schedule if needed to help out, so please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss specific times. Looking forward to your response. I live 10 minutes from Portland Airport. I understand how important your pet is to you, and I am committed to providing attentive, loving care that ensures their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I strive to engage with animals in ways that help them feel secure and appreciated, including maintaining familiar routines. My home features a spacious, fenced yard where we enjoy daily walks and playing fetch. I have experience caring for my own pet, Macy and in my childhood other animals such as parrots, fishes, and even a monkey. One of my favorite moments with dogs is play fetch—seeing their excitement always reminds me just how rewarding caring for animals can be. I take my responsibilities seriously and am always eager to learn more about each pet’s unique personality and age. To help maintain a safe environment, I kindly ask that your dog be protected with Simparica or a similar product recommended by your preferred veterinarian, such as Frontier, which guards against ticks and fleas Please let me know if you have any specific concerns, preferences, or special requests. I am open to feedback and happy to adapt to your pet's unique needs and routines. I am available for a meeting any day this week to discuss your loved one’s requirements, and after our meeting I will tailor my care to your pet’s needs. Thank you again for entrusting me with this important responsibility. I look forward to meeting you and your pet, and to providing compassionate care that brings you peace of mind.
“Can I give 6 stars??? Dominique takes such great care of my Beagle while I'm in the office. He loves her so much he starts whining to be let out when we pull in the driveway. 😂 She sends photos and updates throughout the day, is very flexible on his care needs. I think the most important thing is that I can focus on priorities during the day and not worry over Watson's happiness and safety. I know he's having fun playing with Poppy and friends!”
“Upon initial meet and greet, Margaret was very organized and caring making sure to understand all of Romans needs, allergies, and activity levels. He ran a ton to get his energy out so knocked out right when we got home. Margaret creates a great space for daycare for small to mid-sized doggos.”
About: Hello Rover friends! I am a stay at home mom and would love to help sit your pets in our home. I have an open schedule and a big yard! We have a 10 yr old Lab/germen Shepard mix who loves having play dates and having friends over at our home. We do not have a fenced yard but I can take your pup on plenty of walks in our yard! I have tons of time to take good care of your furry babies, we have a ton of space on our 2 acre lot to play with your pup and take them for walks. We have three adults in the house and 1 child, so plenty if supervision. My dog is has an electric collar so he has a boundary he does not cross, I keep dogs that are prone to be curious on a leash since my yard is not fenced. I keep dogs separated when eating.
“Elaine is pure gold. My doggo, who has massive separation anxiety, is thrilled when we roll up to her door. That would. W enough for a 5* rating! And then, she’s also super flexible with scheduling and timing! Win win win. TLDR; Elaine rocks, trust her with yer pup!”
“Absolutely amazing was the first time I've ever left my pup with someone besides family and boy did he love his new friend Alexa! She is super sweet and amazing with my pups! She will definitely be the one I reach out to for further pup day care without a doubt! Thanks again”
“Jenny took exceptional care of my senior dog, Charlie. From the very beginning, Charlie was immediately comfortable with her and tail wagging, which is rare since she’s usually a bit cautious around new people. Charlie has several medical needs, and Jenny went above and beyond by asking thoughtful, detailed questions to make sure she could provide the best possible care. She sends pictures and updates regularly, which helped me know Charlie was having a good time and happy. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Charlie was in such attentive and capable hands. Jenny truly has a special way with animals. She’s patient, gentle, and clearly cares deeply about the pets she looks after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Haleigh has sat Rocky on a few occasions now when I've been in town for work and can't take him into the office. Appreciate her responsiveness and I know my pup is in trusted hands!”
“Angela seems very professional and trust worthy. Argos has enjoyed his time with her and we will be using her again. Thanks for helping to care for the favorite mammal in the household!”

“Kat was very good with my pup. Shes on time, very good with communication and most of provided excellent care for my pup. My shepherd was happy to be her ...such a wonderful vibe.”
About: Hi, I'm Jenny! I have over 3 years of experience pet sitting, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing medication. I have experience with high energy, timid, low energy, large breeds, small breeds, counter surfers, etc. I work from home so your pet(s) will have constant companionship and regular potty breaks. Since I am always home, I can accommodate for what pick up and drop off times work best for your schedule. Your dog will feel right at home in our cozy, spacious house with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play. We provide a comfortable, welcoming environment where dogs can relax, explore, and get plenty of attention. In our household, we have two dogs of our own. One small breed and one larger breed, both super sweet and friendly towards other dogs. Due to my owning a small dog and that I provide a safe and social environment for multiple pets at a time, I am unable to host aggressively rough-playing breeds. While I do sometimes have multiple furry guests, I always ensure each dog receives individual attention and has their own resting space.
“Jessica did a great job with Toby! We really appreciated her taking the time to come meet him first and make sure he was comfortable. The walk went great and we appreciate the cute pictures!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and communication I provide. I treat every pet like they’re my own showered with love, patience, and plenty of playtime. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who require a gentler, slower pace and maybe some extra TLC. I’m detail oriented, reliable, and always keep pet parents in the loop with regular updates and photos. Whether it’s giving meds, reinforcing positive behaviors, or just providing a calm presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities! Paws on Point: Pet care integrated seamlessly into my daily routine, ensuring consistent and reliable care for your beloved pets, every single day. I work from home so I am blessed with a flexible schedule. My Safe Haven for Furry Friends: Ensuring Trust, Comfort, and a Pet-Friendly Environment in My Home or Yours. Tailored Care for Every Service I Offer.
“Thank you Chelsea for being so great and loving with my weens. They already love walking with you. What a savage you are juggling three dogs while simultaneously pushing through a torrential downpour of rain. You are amazing!”
“Francisca was amazing! She went above and beyond while I went out of town for 7 days. I was so anxious to leave my pup alone and Francisca made me feel so comfortable. She gave great daily communication and updates. She took my pup to run some errands and even spent extra time with my pupper after the walks to make her feel safe (My dog and I have never been apart that long). I could see on the house camera that she treated my pup/my home with such respect and treated my pup and if she were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Francisca to another seeking a walker/sitter and I will definitely be using her in the future! I think I even made a friend! ?❤️”
“Madelyn was available in a pinch, replied quickly and has reliably shown up to give my dog Hiro a much needed walk every week when I am unable. Definitely recommend, and I'm so glad I found her when I did. :)”
About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and have a passion for making sure they feel loved! I always had pets growing up with my family having up to 3 dogs and 5 cats at one point! My fiance and I now have our own 2 year old Golden Retriever who is full of energy and loves making new friends! I'm currently a full-time online student at Clark College so I'm always home taking care of my Golden Retriever. Between my fiance and I there will always be someone home! We live on a acre of land and backyard is fully fenced in so there's plenty of space for your baby(s) to play and run!
“Lyla was awesome and was able to book on short notice! I am recovering from surgery and needed someone to give my dogs some exercise and she was just the right fit. Will definitely be booking again!!”
About: I love animals and have grown up with them. I have over 15 years of experience working with, and being around all kinds of animals, breeds, and temperaments. My experience with dogs includes my own, pet sitting (long term & short term), working as a veterinary assistant and interning at the zoo. I have a very calm, and patient personality, this often works well for dogs - especially those that are more nervous. I have worked with senior pets, puppies, experience administering medications, etc. I get to know your furry family member and observe behaviors and what they like and don’t like. Also paying attention to change in behavior. I took a break from offering pet care services due to life changes, which is why there’s a gap between previous and most current pet care, but I am excited to get back to doing what I enjoy most! 😊 I currently work a full time job in the hospital and work variable shifts. Always open to take a look at your requests and see if it will match up with my work schedule! If it lands on days I do work, I will be there before and after work as well as sleep in your home if that is your request. Days that I don’t work, I’ll be there more frequent. I make sure to follow all directions left by my client, whether their pet is crated, what to look out for, what they like/dislike, feeding schedules, etc. I always keep in contact with my client if anything seems “off” or different about their furry family member.
About: I have taken care of a dog, a cat, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. I love walking long distances with my dog. I am also very good at reading animal body language and I know how to do all of the basic animal care necessities. I am currently working from home so I would have lots of time for walks and hikes and play. I will make sure your dog comes home happy and tired. I do have a golden retriever and our schedule that your dog would also follow unless they’re special needs is we wake up at seven am, we go outside to go potty, then feed them they play and rest then we go for a walk. We love our Whipple Creek 🌲❤️ Trail then we drive home and rest. Then later I give them their second feeding, take them out to go to the bathroom and take a small walk in our neighborhood before it’s time to rest and chill and head to bed. I live in a cozy gated apartment with my husband, Greg and my golden retriever. My husband works as a in-home caregiver and when he gets home he helps me out. He is also an animal lover, and if I am housesitting, he travels with me as well as my very friendly golden retriever. I promise as a married couple we will respect your house and environment we will also bring our own sleeping equipment and we don’t mind doing house chores.
“My dog instantly connected with Mari and gets so excited when she comes over for weekly walks. Mari is personable and communicates well. She always tracks and takes at least one photo while out and about. I would recommend her 100%.”

“David took very good care of Cooper and Chandler. He was very understanding of both their behaviors. It is very difficult to find someone who cared, observed and communicated as clearly and frequently as David did. 5 out of 5 we would recommend him to any of our friends in the area.”
“The people in this home made Mabel feel welcomed and loved. How do I know? All of the pictures and updates Christine sent me! I was able to work out of town without worrying about my girl, Mabes. My work can be stressful, and not having to worry about Mabel means so much to me. I will definitely want Mabel to go back to Christine's home!”
“To start, Danielle had my dog for a daycare, and, everything went great. I received photos showing him walking with others and I know him well enough to know he was enjoying his time. I felt comfortable to go ahead and schedule two overnights with Danielle for him during my next work trip. Things I love about Danielle are that she really pays attention to what you say, the details. She is straightforward and not afraid to express any concerns (such as safety of certain types of collars etc.) Her communication has been excellent. She walks every day with multiple dogs and the pack is such an enjoyable place for my dog. I'm not inundated with photos, but, receive just enough to know he's doing well! We will be boarding at Danielle's as long as she'll have us 💜”
“Genevieve was fantastic and took phenomenal care of my 11 year old dog. She was super communicative, asked all the questions before hand so I felt confident leaving him with her. We FaceTimed a couple times while I was gone too so I could really see his demeanor and he was so chilled out and comfy with her, just snuggling through the morning. I would absolutely recommend Genevieve to watch friends dogs and will reach out to her in the future for any dog watching needs!!”
“What a fantastic sitter. Our little guy is very anxious and created some issues for them….. and they dealt with it with grace and professionalism. Very knowledgeable and trusted people. Regular updates, pictures and communication. Thank you so very much!”
“Our girl Tillie Bean loves to stay with Angie and has done well with her while we are away. It is such a relief knowing she is good hands and that she is having her own special getaway with Angie. Thanks for loving our special little lady🐾”
“We were very impressed with Karilla’s care for Rosie. It was an easy transition during drop off and pickup, and Karilla provided daily updates to make us feel assured that Rosie was doing well. As first-time Rover users, we were satisfied with the level of service we received and would wholeheartedly recommend Karilla to anyone.”
“Ann has been my saving grace! I am a helicopter dog mom and have a lot of trust issues when it comes to my girl Birdie…. and luckily, Ann acknowledged my anxieties and assured such great care! She is a great communicator, loves my girl as if she was her own, and is always available! I have to mention that we did have a cancellation last minute but it was because she did not want Birdie to potentially get sick. I think that’s an important thing to consider with the review that Rover posted. No issues with Ann whatsoever, and i will continue to feel at ease when dropping Birdie off!”
“Niki and were family were amazing watching my dog for 4 days! I knew from the meet and greet immediately how caring and experienced they were so I had no concerns going into it. I got exceptional communication throughout the stay and I have already booked future stays with them. Really feel lucky to have found them as a local Rover provider.”
“Yuting was great. She communicated daily and sent video and pics throughout our time away. Dave was exercised daily and had plenty of play time with her pups as well! Thanks, Yuting!”
“Kathy took such wonderful care of our puppy and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our boy came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for! Kathy was also great with communication and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. 10/10 recommend!”
