“I can’t say enough good things about Julie! She was professional and took amazing care of my pups (and fish) while we were out of town. Before her overnight stay she even came to meet me and the pups and brought them treats. I have no doubt they were well taken care of and will absolutely use her devices again in the future!”
2. Nicole A.
“Nicole was amazing! She took care of my fur babies better than I do and left the house better than she found it. I got updates every day without having to ask for them, which was great since this was my first time using Rover and I was nervous. Will absolutely be hiring her in the future.”
3. Melissa A.
“Melissa was wonderful! She took great care of our little dog in our home. We met her the day before and felt so comfortable leaving her with our spoiled pup. She's very friendly and our little boy really seemed to love her. She sent pictures so we could see he was doing great. Thank you Melissa. We'll be calling on you again. ?❤”
4. Luna S.
“Luna is a very loving and responsible person who is great with people as well as animals. She was raised in a house full of various pets, from cats and dogs, to snakes and lizards and as such has learned how to care for a wide range of animals. She has often taken care of our animals, her grand parents animals and many of our friends animals. She has done it for a day, and even for multiple weeks at a time as a kind of house sitter/pet sitter. I would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter or just a pet walker.”
5. Ness C.
“She did a great job. My pets loved her and was super happy when I got home. Thanks so much.”
6. Katie O.
“Katie did a wonderful job following our detailed directions on feeding and giving medicine to our rabbits. You would be lucky to have someone like her stay at your house and care for your animals.”
7. Lacey H.
About: I am usually the go-to person friends and family call to walk with and watch over their fur babies. I have a great amount of experience taking care of animals of all ages and sizes (including my own) for friends, family, and neighbors. I love to try and teach new tricks when possible to keep their minds active! Although I am in school while I work, there are set days where I don’t have class. With that there are several days when I am free to watch, check in on, or walk fur babies. When watching my own pets, I normally have them on a leash while outside since I don’t have a fenced in yard. I like to make sure my pets and other peoples pets aren’t outside in the heat for too long and have plenty of water breaks especially when playing. When walking my own or other people pets I don’t like to have them close to roads, I try to walk them in parks and on trails.
8. Skye K.
“Skye was referred by a friend whom I put great faith in as a pet owner. I could not have been more pleased with the service she provided and the cleanliness in which my home was left when she finished. She stayed in touch and sent pictures that were very much appreciated. Hope to see her again soon!”
9. Veronique M.
“Veronique (she goes by Elizabeth) takes wonderful care of my cats. She truly treats them as her own and loves all animals. She was able to easily pill my cat when I was unable to. She is also flexible in terms of time.”
10. Ida M.
About: I am a full-time therapist. I decided to do this in my spare time, on weekends preferably. I’ve owned cats my whole life, and I volunteer at the animal shelter to walk dogs whenever I can. Pets are a very important part of my life, and I understand they are for you too. Right now I am available on weekends to do drop-ins when you are out of town. I can feed them, walk them, change the litter box, play with them, and so forth. As someone who works full-time, pets offer a lot of stress relief, so this is my way of ending the week on a positive note and making friends with your fur babies! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you so much ❤️☺️ I work a full-time job, but I am super free on the weekends! I usually work from 8-430. Being able to interact with pets is such a joy! It is a stress reliever for sure! At my clients home, I make sure that I provide extra special care. For cats, this includes cuddles, treats, as well as feeding them a nutritious diet. For dogs I make sure I give them attention and lots of exercise!
11. Jalin G.
“Jalin grew up on a big dairy farm and has always had 2 dogs in her life since she was 3 years old. Amongst all the cows, chickens, cats, goats and pigs! She’s an animal lover for sure. She currently has 3 dogs and takes them to the vet and for walks and to pet stores!”
12. Tiffany H.
“I could not be more pleased with the great job Tiffany did taking care of my dog recently. She was very accommodating about following my instructions. She also sent pictures of my dog at mealtime and cute pictures in between. My dog really likes Tiffany, which is great because she is normally very wary of strangers. Tiffany did an excellent job, and I highly recommend her.”
13. Michael R.
“Michael is the first person I call, when I need someone to care for my dog. My dog is always so excited to see him, and he takes excellent care of him.”
14. Ethan S.
“Ethan is always very caring with our little fur baby. She always looks forward to seeing him. He is dependable, punctual and trustworthy. Very highly recommended.”
