1. Barb K.

“Barb aka MacGyver 😜, was awesome. My doggies loved her and we felt very comfortable knowing our furbabies were well taken care of. Barb was very considerate of our home and kept our house spotless.”


2. Jessie F.

“So responsive, knew how to work with a dog that is needy! Sent tons of pictures, since I was nervous leaving him. He loved her from the start, she has a great vibe that dogs can read. Very impressed, definitely will hire again!”


3. Brianne J.

“Brie was patient and loving with our puppers, Cooper and Zuzu. She came for a meet and greet prior and stayed in our home while we were in Fla. Brie kept us up to date on how they were doing, took them on walks and gave them all the love and cuddles they needed! Brie is super responsive, mature and we hope she will join us again!!!”


4. Mickey M.

“Mickey took excellent care of our dog and cat (and chickens!). She was responsive and proactive, and sent photos and updates to ease our minds while we were on our vacation. We were happy to have her staying in our home, and she even brought her own items over to help with dog care (e.g., a retractable leash, an extra outdoor line). We highly recommend Mickey and hope to have her sit for us every time we travel out of town.”


5. Abigail V.
“Abby has been exceptional with caring for pets for several years. I’ve witnessed her always being attentive and following instructions as to how to take care of other peoples’ pets, including my own family. I would trust her to take care of anybody’s pets.”


6. Jessica E.


“Jessica was by far the best Rover individual we've had the opportunity for hiring. She was polite, kind, and respectful. She clearly enjoyed taking care of our pups, and handled our home as a perfect guest. We would hire her any time she'd be willing because it's clear Amelia, Storm and Boe all loved her time with them!”


7. Kelly S.

“Great with our dog! He’s a 90 lbs husky/malamute who gets daily medication and a special diet. Kelly was excellent with him! She was great with the medication instructions and feeding, took him on long daily walks, and was very caring towards him! I would 100% book with Kelly again”


8. Mary S.


“Mary was wonderful! Even though she was just stopping in she sent us so many updates and pictures! Archie doesn’t always warm up to strangers easily but within that short time they were snuggling and playing! We couldn’t have been happier! I would recommend her to anyone!”


9. Rebecca V.
“I can’t imagine a better pet-caregiver than Rebecca. She is kind, patient, and loving with all animals, and took great care of our special needs fur-babies when we were out of town recently. She has experience with elderly pets and is comfortable with special food needs and medicines. She followed our pet care instructions perfectly and is also organized, responsible, and has a great sense of humor! She took the time to meet and play with our pets before we left and we were comfortable being away knowing that they were well taken care of.”


10. Megan H.
“Megan is an exceptional dog sitter whose professionalism and genuine love for animals set her apart. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that pets in her care are not only safe and well cared for, but also happy and comfortable. Megan maintained excellent communication throughout, providing thoughtful updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. Her attention to detail, reliability, and kind-hearted nature make her someone I trust wholeheartedly. I would highly recommend Megan to anyone seeking top-quality, compassionate care for their pet.”




11. Jessica G.

“Jessica was absolutely wonderful at taking care of our cat and dog over the weekend. It gave us peace of mind to have someone like her watch over our pets.”


12. Emily K.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life! I have taken care of dogs for family and friends throughout the years. I am comfortable with big and small dogs! Currently I am available every weekend or nights after 5pm. I am a teacher so with summer coming up, I will the be available 24/7! My dogs are apart of my family, and your pets will be treated the same way! I am gentle, loving and compassionate with them. They are allowed on furniture, get daily walks and are loved!


13. Elizabeth W.

“This is the third time Elizbeth cared for my two dogs and one cat. This was a 2-night house-sitting job. I can't say enough positive things about how Elizabeth ensured my pets' welfare. Both dogs are pretty sensitive and have been uneasy when we have been away in the past. Not so with Elizabeth! They had a great time playing and cuddling with her, and they settled in beautifully. When we got home, I could see how comfortable they are with Elizabeth. What a difference and what a relief! I recommend Elizabeth highly for her pet sitting skills and dedication to the best care for my pets.”


14. Dave Z.

“Dave was very punctual, responsive, and took great care of our animals while my fiancé and I were away. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter!”


15. Emily C.

“Emily is AMAZING! I highly recommend her. Someone else was supposed to watch our dog during our wedding and they canceled on us the night before our big day. I downloaded the Rover app and Emily came to meet our pup within an hour of us chatting and put ALL my worries aside. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the day, took our dog for walks, and played with him so he wasn’t alone the entire day. She made me feel so at ease and is a great dog sitter.”


16. Kathleen M.

“What a gem!! Kathleen took great care of my dogs especially my Tito who can be a handful. She even went above and beyond, bringing in my Amazon packages and mail, she even texted pictures of my happy guys ❤️❤️ . With Kathleen, I knew they were in good hands and I could attend my event and have a great time.”


17. Emma S.

“Did a great job with my boys.”


18. Taylor C.
About: I work as a behavior for individuals with autism, which helps with managing behavior issues at home. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I want to be one day. I have trained every dog I've every owned. I work 5 days/week 40 hours/week. I see clients throughout the day and my schedule is generally flexible. As long as I have advanced notice (2-3 days) I can fit you throughout the week. Otherwise, I am available on the weekends too. If need be, I may place your dog in a crate or gated area to protect your dog from any other dogs nearby. On walks, your dog will be by my side at all times and I will help them learn not to choke on the leash as they usually do.


19. Jaiden K.
“Jaiden is a wonderful girl who holds a special place in her heart for animals. She has groomed my golden doodle and did a super job. She is a very kind hearted and responsible young woman.”


20. Alyssa A.
About: I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits, 2 dogs and 11 chickens. I am a substitute teacher so my schedule is rather flexible. It allows me to arrange my week how I need it. My afternoons are usually pretty open. I will ensure that each pet is safe, secure and well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while providing updates to their families.
