“Ron took great care of our dogs over a five day period during a busy holiday season. His drop-in visits occurred in the schedule we had requested, and he managed the daily walks we had asked for in addition to the regular feeding, watering, and backyard visits. With all the real-time notices of his visits, and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip. Great experience!”

11. Tempest B.
About: I raised my heart dog up from 4 weeks to 14 years old. Through middle school, high school, and college, Lion was my best friend and he stays in my heart. I now have T’Challa, who I’ve been raising for 4 years. For around 5 years, I worked at a daycare where I attended to dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My love for all animals has led me into the care of birds, reptiles, and small mammals over the years. I handle the pets of friends, family, and clients as if they were my own little ones. I am able to pet sit in between working my day job (pet sitting is a lot more fun). Additionally, my weekends are my off days and when I'm most free to walk and do sittings. I am careful to follow all instructions that pet parents leave for their fur babies. I have experience giving medications, and I don't discriminate by size or breed.
12. Joann F.
“Joan was absolutely amazing! She sent us updates at every drop-in. She was always on time and went above and beyond to care for our furry babies. We were able to enjoy time with our family for Thanksgiving without worrying. I highly recommend her.”
13. Taylor S.
“I’m so happy I found Taylor! She’s so great with my dog, Stella. I trust her with a key to my house and my dog. Taylor is friendly, reliable, and trustworthy! You won’t regret having her watch your fur baby!”
14. Ashlyn Z.
“First time doing this and she is the best person! Im glad that I trusted the right person to look after my dog. She’s sweet and caring!”
15. Jacob H.
“Jacob did an excellent job. I made a last minute request for someone to drop-in on my dog, Blue. He always responded to my messages promptly. He followed all of my instructions and provided updates with each vist. While Jacob was caring for Blue, I didn't have to worry about anything which is exactly what I needed. My experience was 10/10. I would recommend Jacob for any Rover service you need. In return you will get peace of mind and a happy pet.”
16. Vanessa R.
“We had Vanessa watch our two young cats over Thanksgiving week. Vanessa was great with them and with us - attentive to their needs and very responsive to us. Our favorite was the pictures she shared in the after-visit reports, and our cats’ favorite was seeing their new buddy. Vanessa was very respectful, professional, and kind. Would definitely ask Vanessa to come back in the future!”
17. Chandler R.
“Chandler was absolutely amazing! She cares for our dog as much as we would! She is super responsive and goes the extra mile. This is the third time Lily stayed with her and the fourth time is booked already!!”
18. Anna C.
“Anna took great care of my dog while I was gone, he looked so happy in the photos taken! I definitely recommend her to others looking for a sitter!”
19. Ella K.
“Ella was able to come by with two days notice and no meet and greet for a last minute trip to see the eclipse. So thankful for that! The cats were fed, alive, and well when I got home and she provided great pictures of her visit!”
20. Cassandra T.
“GREAT communication, consistent and dependable, I feel like Cassandra truly cares about my cat! Will definitely hire her again.”
