Connor is an excellent sitter. He's very thoughtful and attentive to our pets needs (love, attention, walks, sniffs), and our needs (lots of adorable dog pics). He's very respectful and also top notch on the house sitting front as well. We are looking forward to having Connor watch our boys again soon (and I know they feel the same)!

Ann was very nice, my dog and cat were very happy when I got home. Ann was very accommodating about staying at the house with Hank and Snowball. I’m very thankful to her for taking great care of them while I was out of town.

Mariah was wonderful - and so incredibly accommodating to our needs, as we travel across country. She took the girls, (Cher and Dion), on long walks to see the sights and sniffs of the city - and provided me with all the pictures I could ever want. Couldn't recommend her enough and will definitely be reaching out again the next time we're back in Pittsburgh.

Wallis went above and beyond to enable a reservation for us. Her updates during reservations are well timed, helpful, and informative. The action shots she has captured have been hilarious (#husky). Cannot recommend her highly enough.

Evan did a wonderful job watching my two rescue babies and our home for 5 nights. He is kind, reliable and detail oriented. His communication is clear and timely. I was able to relax while I was away because I knew they were in loving and capable hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!

Makenzie was nothing short of incredible! My husband and I were using Rover for the first time and it was a long trip out of the country so it was a bit daunting. Makenzie sent us daily updates and cared for our pup as we would (if not better ;p)! She went above and beyond so we could have a peaceful vacation. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve been dog sitting for 5 years but always had dogs growing up that I would help take care of. I treat every dog that I care for like my own and aim to provide them with love, play, and extra pets while their owner is away. I have experience caring for older dogs and dogs with anxiety. Also happy to care for puppies. I’m trained in behavioral psychology and use learning theory techniques to help motivate good pup behavior. I’m currently working full time but happy to go on dog walks or sit on weekends. For the right dog, I’m also happy to dog sit mid week. You are the expert on your dog and their needs. I will happily follow any directions you provide for their care to make sure they are happy and comfortable.

I was so anxious leaving my dog with separation anxiety alone for the first time but Angel was fantastic with him! They were also fantastic with our cat, who had developed eye issues just days before we were leaving and was able to treat her. I would definitely recommend angel for anyone that has dogs that need a little extra help.

Valerie was totally reliable, and took incredible good care of Hobbes. She played, cuddled and indulged Hobbes’ love for treats. He was a happy camper which we could see from all the photos and videos she sent us. She was able to capture his personality on the photos so well. Communication was prompt and regular as well. We couldn’t be more pleased.
