1. Jessica P.
“Jessica was great! She was quick to respond to my last minute request and was even able to stop by to meet my pets ahead of time. It’s clear she cares a lot about animals which put my mind at ease. She sent photos and updates and was easy to communicate with. I recommend Jessica and will certainly be using her again in the future!”
2. Abbey G.
“Abbey is amazing!! She checked in on our kitty every day during a 9 trip, and we felt so at ease knowing she was taking such good care of our home and cat. She had incredible communication while we were away and went above and beyond for our cat. She came ahead of time to meet us, often stayed longer with our kitty than we had booked, sent tons of pics, and even went out to buy litter when it ran out while we were away. I cannot reccomend her highly enough- thank you!”

6. Georgia R.
“Georgia was the best fur baby sitter anyone could ask for! She followed specific instructions exactly as asked and my dog let me know she was treated well because she was always happy to see Georgia. We are very happy that she got into the college of her choice but we were also very sad to lose our most trusted sitter.”

8. Dana L.
“Dana would be a great pet caregiver. Although she doesn’t currently own a pet at this time, she has had dogs and cats, and is a very responsible and caring pet owner. She will give your pet lots of love while you are away, and she is excellent at following your direction. I have entrusted my dog’s and cat’s care to Dana, and she’s wonderful!”
9. Karin C.

10. Bailey O.
“Bailey is awesome! As soon as she walked in the door to meet my pups and they didn't make a peep, but ran up to say hi I knew she was a true animal person. Bailey watched our pups for us for a week while we were away and she took such great care of them! She was super communicative and it was comforting to know that we had no worries while traveling. You can tell she really cares for animals as she appreciated our dog's funny personalities (they are weird :) and gave them lots of long walks and lots of affection. They were super content when we got back! I would highly recommend!”
11. Katie T.
“Katie did an excellent job with our cat and went above and beyond! It’s the second time she’s helped us out, and I highly recommend her for looking after your pets!”
12. Lyndsay S.
About: Having 21 years of personal pet care experience, both on and off of a farm, I have general knowledge of dog obedience training, socialization training and general grooming of both dogs and cats. I am always willing to learn new things, especially for the sake of the animals that I am responsible for, as well as encourage them to have fun, feel loved and know that they are always in the best care! I have high standards for myself in this regard, so you can always expect that your pet will be in the best hands. Not only that, but you can also count on my loving your furry friend as my very own. I work full time, Monday - Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM; I take hour long lunch breaks, traveling home to care for my pup and taking care of business in between. Weekends are open, within reason, and I am willing to modify my schedule for the right person and pet. I will follow clients’ specific guidelines on how to care for their pet(s), observing and reporting anything and everything that occurs during each visit. Routine and consistency is everything, and I will follow these to a “T”!
13. Meghan M.
“Meghan is fantastic with dogs! Always been super great with ours. She always takes great care and is also a great trainer too. Highly recommended!”
14. Elijah H.
“Elijah took amazing care of our 3 y/o bully fur baby Agape for 2 weeks. He gave him his meds, eyedrops, fed and walked him often and played with him as much as Agape wanted. Oddly enough, Agape accepted Elijah almost instantly (it’s odd because Agape is a rescue) and following Elijah around the house within 2-3 hours. When we return, Agape missed Elijah and was sitting by the door for over 20 mins awaiting his return. Thank you so much Elijah for taking sure great care of our fur baby. You’re apart of his pack now.”
15. Laura B.
“Laura absolutely loves animals and especially dogs. She has grown up with two large dogs. Laura worked as an assistant at a local Veterinarian and has good hands-on common sense about animal care and issues. She has a delightful personality and would make a great companion for your dog.”
16. Lillian D.
“Lillian is a super responsible, conscientious and trustworthy individual who has a special connection with animals - both large and small. She has expertly cared for her own pets - dogs and guinea pigs - for many years and has taken care of other pet owners’ cats and dogs on multiple occasions.”
17. Elizabeth B.
About: I’ve had pets since I was 2 years old. As soon as I was able, I started having a role in their caregiving. This included walking, feeding, bathing, giving medication, & loving them endlessly! In college, I also volunteered at a rescue shelter where I spent time walking & playing with the dogs, cleaning the kennels, as well as giving baths, treats, & loves. I currently work 20-25 hours a week all from home. I have multiple breaks throughout the day (every 50 minutes at the least) where I’m able to tend to any of the animal’s needs. I typically work Monday-Thursday 8am-11am & 2pm-6pm (with a ten minute break at the end of each hour). At my house, I have a fully fenced in backyard where your doggie can run & play, go to the bathroom, or just hangout. When the weather permits, I keep the back door open so they can come in/out as they please. Otherwise, I let them out regularly/as needed. If I’m in your home, I’m happy to follow any routine/schedule you typically use with your pet!

“Abigail was wonderful! Very responsive and prompt. Abigail clearly LOVES animals and is committed to providing excellent care.”
19. Taylor W.
“I'm so grateful that you could keep Sandy company and give the old girl attention. She seems very relaxed. (and Thank you for taking in the pkg on the porch)”
20. Giuliana C.
“I had friends over for President’s day weekend who brought their puppy (Archie) to play with my puppy (Gerard). We had made plans to ski the whole weekend but didn’t plan well enough on who will take care of our babies. So we signed into Rover and checked our options. After reading Giuliana’s profile we decided that she was the best choice for us. We messaged her a bit later at night, but she responded immediately and agreed to come very early the next day. She came a few minutes before our set time and was completely flexible when we tried to extend a bit of her stay because of traffic. We came home to two very happy puppies who had been walked a couple of times, fed and played with the whole day. I highly recommend Giuliana and will be using her again.”
