3. Casey D.

“My fiancé and I were planning on having my parents watch our dog while on vacation. Last minute we found out they were unable to watch her. We decided to try out Rover for the first time. Casey put us at ease while we were away. She sent detailed updates every time she dropped in. She even went an additional time when I asked her last minute. We will definitely be using Casey again!!”


4. Meredith H.

“I was really grateful to know that I could count on Meredith to take care of my animals after a 15 hour workday has been intense for two weeks and I need to be able to step away and focus 100% on my work annoying they were taken care of and safe and not stuck inside or in a crate and having somebody come let them out while I was at work is worth it to me they are my family you can count on Meredith and know nothing was stolen”


5. Rylie H.
About: I have worked in a dog boarding/daycare facility for 2.5 years. I have learned valuable caring abilities, and I have worked with all ages and breeds. I am very knowledgeable about dogs and their displayed behaviors as well! I'm willing to be flexible on you and your dog's needs. I know how stressful it can be to find someone to care for your fur babies, but I will treat them just like my own! I would be available to do in house sitting for you pet or small check-ins/walks for you. I have two golden retrievers that mean everything to me. I’m currently in the process of working on starting a small business, and I have a very flexible schedule! I take online classes that would not interfere with anything. I am available very often throughout the week and weekends to customize a schedule for your pet care. I have two young golden retrievers that are young and friendly. I have two large kennels that can be used if need be, along with a fenced in yard. For appointments in a client's home/check-ins, I will care for your pet just as you do! I can follow your daily routine along with any customization you would like (walks, playtime, etc.). I would be available to stay overnight if you wanted, or come for check-ins. I will provide several photo and text updates throughout the appointments so you can keep updated on your pets!




6. Brooke B.
“Brooke and her family are an amazing gift you could give to your fur friends! I'm positive the time your fur-baby spends with Brooke would feel more like going to grandma's (with a lot less gray hair around) than going to a pet sitter. The love and attention our dog receives from them each time they have looked after him reflects their heart for animals. Your loved pup couldn't be in better hands!”


7. Michelle K.

“Michelle is excellent! She has been cat sitting for me many times and she does a great job and my cats love her. Definitely recommend her!”


8. Kearstin S.
“Kearstin is a close friend of mine, she is also the best dog Mom to Joe and dog Aunt to my dog. I see how much Kearstin spoils Joe with love, treats, adventures, and plenty of play time. I love the weekends we all spend together because my dog always has the best play date with Joe. Kearstin did a great job raising Joe, he is well trained and gets along with any pet. She will be the best and most attentive caregiver for your pet!”


9. Erika R.

“Erika has been great every time I’ve used her. She carefully listened to how best to deal with all 3 of my dogs, including their weird quirks and anxiety. When I booked her again she remembered what I told her the first time so I only had to update her on anything that had changed. She always sends pictures and a lovely summary of each dog and how it went. I will continue to book her as long as she remains available.”


10. Kennedy V.
“There is SO much to say about Sunny! She pet sits our 4 cats when we go out of town! We love to see pictures of our cats while we’re away and Sunny will always provide them! We have a senior cat, and he requires food at certain times and some medication with it. Sunny makes sure to keep our nerves down by showing us every time, when she gives him is food and meds! I am so pleased to know her!”


11. Benjamin P.

“Benjamin was outstanding. I have a shy and nervous GSD who he cared for like her was his own dog. They got along great! Frequent picture updates and narratives about how each visit went. Would absolutely have him watch over my doggo again!”


12. Jenniffer H.

“Jenniffer did an amazing job taking care of Koda for me and she was very flexable, it being a very last minute request! Will definitely book again and Koda seemed to love the company ?”


13. Angie B.

“Angie was great with new little puppy! She kept me updated and Nala was worn out when we got home! She was accommodating and welcomed Nala right into her home!”


14. Karley P.

“Karley was super flexible and really helped me out in the clutch!!! She was great!”


15. Allen G.
“Allen is a loving and playful animal dad. He has two dogs currently and they are his number one priority. He has had cats in the past and is equally caring and loving with them. He is attentive to his dogs health and behaviors and quickly picks up if one of them is sick or acting different. Overall, I would highly recommend him to watch over anyone’s pet.”


16. Adrienne & Susan A.
“Adrienne is a loving and thoughtful caregiver to her animals and mine. She helps with my dog and cat when I am not home, always making sure they have everything they need. They are treated as family and always feel safe and comfortable.”


17. Sydney S.
“Sydney loves all pets! She loves taking her buddy Jasper to get pup cups & for long walks… they may have even been seen at Blaine’s Farm & Fleet getting Jasper a new toy. Sydney has also previously volunteered with Waverly Pet Rescue cleaning cages & playing with the adoptable kitties. She took a trip & volunteered at Villalobos/Pit Bulls & Parolees Rescue in New Orleans as well. Sydney would be the perfect person to watch your loved fur baby, not only would she spoil them but you might just get a few pictures and videos of them having a great time together.”


18. Clarity B.
“I know clarity would be perfect for this job because she has always been very kind and caring to her own animals and mine, she has cared for my dog and done the best job she could do.”


19. Marissa M.
“Marissa takes care of my dog Moxy when I'm out of town, she does a great job; Moxy loves her and enjoys her time with Marissa.”


20. Baylee E.
“Baylee has had a love of animals since she was little. She has been around dogs and cats her entire life and they always seem to know that she is kind and loving. She has cared for other people’s pets on several occasions and done an exceptional job. Baylee has 2 dogs of her own that she has raised to be very friendly and sweet. Baylee would sooner let herself get hurt than allow any animal to be in harms way.”
