“Charity did an amazing job dog sitting for my miniature poodle baby Nala. She was always loving and caring towards Nala. Sent lots of update texts and pics!! Came home to the house being just the way I left it. Will use Charity for all future trips and dog walking services!!”

“Mark was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! So attentive and went above and beyond, especially during a very stressful time for animals…4th of July. He was very communicative, and we always knew what was going on with our pups regularly. It meant so much to us that we could relax on vacation knowing they were well taken care of! Will definitely be working with Mark in the future!”

“Linda is amazing and just the person you want to watch your doggos! She house/dog sat for us for a long period of time and my anxious pooch was so comfortable with her, because Linda goes the extra mile. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! 10/10 recommend!”

“I was a little unsure about leaving my dog with a stranger but Erika proved me wrong. She kept in constant contact including pics. She asked questions and contacted me over any concerns. She left the home clean and would definately use again.”

“We have had Haeli watch our dogs several times. She is always friendly and takes great care of our girls. She goes out of her way to leave the house in good shape and the dogs happy. I would highly recommend her.”

“Anita is amazing. The care given to my three dogs while I was out of town was top notch. She sent pictures and videos every day. She noticed and notified me of a couple things that may need further attention. I will absolutely use Anita again. My dogs couldn’t have been in better care.”

“I think our dogs had a better vacation than we did. Sue even got our timid little dog to rollover for belly rubs. She sent many updates and left our house exactly how we left it. It was so nice to be able to relax knowing that our dogs were being spoiled and loved.”

“Abby was absolutely amazing! My dog loved her instantly and she was so attentive to his individual needs and anxiety. I was anxious to try out new dog sitters as I just moved to the area but she was always keeping me in the loop and was extra loving to my fur buddy. Will use again!”

“Alyssa is so amazing. She listens, is attentive, knowledgeable, and has wonderful calm energy. Love that we found her and will definitely be using her services again! Thanks so much, Alyssa, for taking such good care of our pup while we were out!”

“I recently booked Marc to take care of my cat. She's definitely a less than friendly feline with strangers, and he was great with her. She requires meds twice a day and he had zero issues getting her taken care of. I'd absolutely recommend Marc to take care of any animal if you need help.”

“Abigail was a Godsend! We are regular pet sitters ourselves but never needed a sitter. This time we were going away for 8 days and no one could help watch our cat. Out of desperation, I downloaded the Rover app two days before we were leaving, not sure what I needed. Abby’s profile was one of about 10 that popped up quickly. I thought I might just want drop-in service so was fine with her not having a lot of reviews. She was the first and only one we met with. She was quick to respond, flexible and amiable. She also had a desire to work with animals (and current doors). When we met, she brought her sister for safety (also a sweet girl!) and we discussed our needs. We didn’t know what we wanted but decided to ask her to sleep at the house. She was fine with it. While we were gone, she sent pictures and played with other cat a lot. She gave off great vibes so we trusted her easily. We felt our precious kitty, who can be standoffish at times, was well-loved and cared for. We needed an emergency night at the end because our flight canceled. She, again, obliged. Thankfully! We returned to the house in clean condition and she went the extra mile and cleaned her own sheets and towels! We are so grateful to have found Abby and hope to use her in the future!”

“Shay and Olivia house sat a full day for our 2 cats and 2 dogs, 1 dog being high needs with epilepsy. They updated us regularly since it was their 1st time in our home. When we got home, all were relaxed and happy. COULDNT ASK FOR MORE. Thank u!!!”

“Jason was a fabulous dog sitter who watched our dog in our home for five days. He was responsive to communications, sent sweet pictures of my pup during their time together and I came home to a house that was much cleaner than I'd left it. I'd definitely recommend him and seek him out next time I go out of town.”

“Jenna stepped in last minute when other plans unexpectedly fell through, and I am sure it was meant to be! She was wonderful to have sitting at our home, we never felt anything less than completely at ease with her being there. She did a fantastic job taking care of our rambunctious corgi and kitties, we look forward to using her Rover services again!”
“Seriously one of, if not the best rovers we have had! Went above and beyond for our dog poppy. Was very responsive, communicative, and followed instructions perfectly. Cant recommend Ryann enough!”

About: I’ve had my own dog from the puppy stage for almost 12 years now and have dog and cat sat for years. It’s a passion of mine and I really need the extra money. I have school and work from 8:30-5 but I am free every morning and evening to take care of your furry family, walk them, and play with them. I prioritize safety and well being of your companions over anything else. I will do anything in my power to not only create a full environment but also a safe one.
“Zoe did an outstanding job caring for our puppers. She is prompt and respectful in person and was very attentive to our dogs needs. During her stay she communicated very well with pictures and updates.”
