“Anna was absolutely wonderful! She was very friendly and highly skilled with caring for dogs, Anna stayed at my house while I was away, and she bonded with my dog instantly. I was completely impressed with her ability to interact and connect with my dog. Anna was really good with following through with my requests regarding my dogs diet, and she followed up with me right away with any concerns. Anna is very reliable, trustworthy and honest, I highly recommend Anna to care for anyone’s pets. And FYI, she also willingly and lovingly cared for and fed my bird. Leaving my dog is hard for me, my heart aches to leave him behind, I never imagined I would find someone who could love my dog much ad I do, but Anna 100% exceeded my expectations.”

“It was our second time using Susan & yet again, our doggos were well taken care of & well loved! They love having her around & despite the fact that they can be a bit rowdy, she handles them amazingly. It was great to be able to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in such good hands. Thank you Susan!”
5. Christine L.
“Christine was lovely, and my dog took to her immediately! No hesitation at all - he immediately ran to her for kisses and pets before she had even made it through the door during our meet and greet. He was happy to snuggle with her while we were away for a weekend. She's also very responsive and sends cute photos, so you never feel too far from home.”

8. Heather C.
“I had never, ever used Rover before, so I was super nervous to leave my sweet babies in the care of a stranger. I’m so glad I found Heather! I scheduled 3 separate drop-in visits leading up to a 6 day trip so my pets could get to know Heather. She was so patient and friendly with them and gave them the time they needed to warm up. During my trip there were times I didn’t have access to internet service, but each time I was able to reach out to Heather, she responded promptly with updates and videos. I felt so reassured which allowed me to relax and enjoy my trip. Heather even went above and beyond by spending the night so my pup wouldn’t have to be alone, she kept up with my mail, took the trash can to the curb, and even washed my pet’s dishes!! I came home to a very happy pets and a sweet note from Heather. I will absolutely be keeping in touch with her for future jobs and I will recommend her to friends and family. Thank you so much Heather - we really appreciate you!! 🐶🐰🐢”
9. John B.
“John was great with our sweet Dolly! This was only our second time leaving her so we are still figuring out how she does while we are away! She had a little bit of anxiety with us gone and John was great about communicating that to us and helping us find a solution that worked for both of them! He was super nice and took great care of her!”
10. Jordan H.
“Jordan was fantastic! She responds quickly. She took great care of our boy. She even went and got him chicken and rice because he wouldn't eat from nerves. She took him on long walks. It was very nice to know he was being well taken care of while we were away. We are definitely working with her again.”
11. Marianna H.
“Mari is very caring and kind to all the pets she cares for. She goes above and beyond to ensure pets are happy and safe! I’ve seen first hand how well she is with animals. Your pets would be in great hands staying with Mari!”
12. Jem M.
“Joelle did an excellent job keeping us up to date regarding the status of our pups. She is both professional and responsive to inquiries. Will be using her again if needed.”
13. Brielle N.
“Brielle is not only a genuinely awesome and good person - she also has a huge heart of gold that cares for all others as if they were her own family!! That is equally true when it comes to her love of animals. If given the opportunity to care for your animal she would treat it and protect it like it was her own.”
14. Brieana R.
“We were so fortunate to have found Breezy for our weekend getaway. She was absolutely amazing with our doggo. Gideon has severe anxiety, so we are always a bit nervous leaving him for extended periods. But Breezy was truly perfect with Giddy. She was so patient with our sweet boy and cared for him like her own. We were able to enjoy our trip to the fullest knowing she was taking such good care of Gideon. I will most definitely be reaching out to her to rebook in the future. Thank you so much!”
15. Taylor M.
About: Hey hello! I’m Taylor. Ive never known a life without a furry friend. I’ve been raised with Saint Bernards and labs, kittens and bunnies, gerbils and the occasional fish. I’ve taken care of friends dogs both daycare and sleepovers. I will love your pup just as you do! I am currently in nursing school, which allows for flexibility. I am home full-time, with the exception of my clinicals. My clinical hours vary, but I will be sure to update my schedule as needed! Pets will have free reign of our second floor apartment in Ghent! Though we have no backyard, we are a couple blocks from the dog park and take our pup there daily! If you prefer crates, we can accommodate!
16. Zara M.
“Zara did a great job! I will look to book her again. She took such good care of Abby and Winston. She had to deal with an unexpected issue with our senior Irish Setter Winston, and she handled it very well. While giving our dogs TLC, Zara also took good care of the house. She did everything I asked and things looked great when we got home. Zara communicated well and sent pictures. Thank you , Zara!”
17. John H.
“John was great! Our babies were happy and taken care of. Even our shy one was good with him which is a first for us. I think that says a lot. I would highly recommend!”
18. Reginald & Kelly V.
“Reginald has watched my dog on two separate occasions and has done a wonderful job. I received daily updates and photos of my dog being loved and cared for. I didn’t ask for these updates but Reginald goes above and beyond. I highly recommend him and I will continue to use him in the future.”
19. Michael P.
“Michael was an excellent pet/house sitter. He was quick and concise with communication and immediately scheduled a meet and greet (without me requesting one). During the meet and greet I could tell our boys were already comfortable with him (and he with them). He asked specific questions about the dogs that focused on their wellfare. We were uncertain of our times and he was willing a ready to work around our schedule. I received updates and pictures as well as questions and clarification. When we returned home the house was exactly as we left it. In short, he's exactly what we want in a petsitter and it led to a very stress-free weekend. Thank you Michael!”
20. Alexis J.
About: Hello, I am Alexis. When I was younger I would foster stray cats and dogs in my home and later take them to the SPCA to be adopted by a loving family. All of the animals I have owned in the past have been rescue dogs and have been loved and nurtured by me. I have not owned a dog since we had to put my last dog of over 10 years down. I am now a wife and mother of two children and have not yet had a chance to open my home to a family pet. Everyone in our household is gentle and caring. We love dogs and until we can get our own member of the family we would love to help other people take care of their dogs! I work from home and have the flexibility to tend and care for pets around my work schedule. I also have a spouse who also works from home that can assist me when I should need it. I have a fenced in yard which I will only utilize while pets are supervised. Majority of the time I will be walking pets. I think it's best to walk pets for exercise for us both!
