Jordan is so amazing ! Wonderful experience. I’ve never used rover before and after speaking with a couple other people on here Jordan stood out the most. She’s amazing with all sorts of animals! My pup had more fun with Jordan then she does with me and I love it ! My Luna will definitely be back whenever we need Jordan again. I would recommend her 100%

Barbara took such good care of my Baxter. He was totally exhausted when I brought him home. She kept me updated with photos and a video of him playing outside. She even let him sleep with her. He had so much fun he didn't want to come home. She had to help me pick him up and put him in the car. I highly recommended her.

Jazlyn was so great with Sammy! She was the first sitter we have used from Rover and she made me feel so much better about leaving him. Sammy had such a fun time playing with Jazlyn’s dog Miko in the yard and I loved getting all the pictures and updates, she made sure I knew what was going on throughout the day. She really went above and beyond to make sure Sammy was comfortable in a new environment and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing that Sammy was being so well taken care of! We will definitely use Jazlyn again in the future!

Willow did an amazing job watching our puppy Max so we could go on a family vacation. She even made him a chicken/rice dinner when he was having tummy issues. We will be using her to watch him again soon! :)

Sue & David we’re amazing from beginning to end! We had a call, meet & greet and they watched our dog for a week. They provided updates with pictures and not once did we have to worry while on vacation. They even let our little guy sleep with them. Do yourself a favor and hire them! You won’t regret it.

We are so happy to have found Nancy and Mark. Our dog has stayed with them for 2 extended visits and has been well cared for. Our dog is quite anxious and not a good walker so having a small fenced in area to let her out is great. Nancy is very communicative during the stay and sends photo updates. We will continue to use for sure!

We have FINALLY found the PERFECT fur baby sitter. Judy and her husband Bob cared for our mini schnauzer Jasper with such warmth and kindness that it was truly like he was their own. Their experience of loving their own pups in the past was evident from the get go. We can’t sing their praises loud enough. Jasper didn’t come home stressed or exhausted. He was GENUINELY happy while with Judy and Bob. We knew he was safe, comfortable and in good hands. Please don’t hesitate if considering booking a stay for your pet with such a loving, kind couple. We will definitely be rebooking again and again. Thank you Judy & Bob!

Nyla had the best time with her new friends Cheddar and Ms Bernice. I’m very much appreciative of her services and for keeping me abreast of Nyla’s time under her care. Hands down l would definitely recommend Ms Bernice. Even though Nyla was happy to see her momma l know she misses them already ❤️. Cheddar even walked Nyla to door before and they said their goodbyes. Definitely rebooking with Ms Bernice. Thanks for taking great care of my baby girl, Nyla.

This is was the first time leaving Layla. Leticia stayed at our home for two nights and went above and beyond for our Layla. We received updates and pictures while away. Anytime we message her she was very quick to respond. We had a very good experience and hope to use Leticia more often.

About: Looking for a pet sitter that treats your pets like their very own? Well, you found her! From a young age, I have worked with dogs large and small. I have years of experience in pet sitting and training my own dogs throughout my life. I pride myself in being able to let your pets out to potty multiple times a day in my fenced-in yard, encouraging enrichment activities, and letting your pet have a minimum of 60 minutes of exercise per day. I have experience training young puppies and helping older dogs with senior care. I am CPR certified, work at a local pet clinic, and am currently enrolled in dog training courses to become a certified dog trainer! I work full time as a veterinary assistant and stay home Saturday-Monday. Throughout the week, I work 12 hour shifts, but am able to come home for a 45 minute break in between for lunch. Pet care is my life and my schedule works around my pets. As I have a fenced yard and a larger home, I started offering services in my home. I would prefer the dogs that stay in my home be crate trained and preferably potty trained. These can be negotiated if the pet is a senior or does very well and does not have issues with having accidents in the home if left unattended for short periods of time (maximum 6 hours). As for client home visits, I would prefer to keep these to a minimum as I work so far away from quite a bit of the area I service. Pets that stay in my home must be up to date on ALL vaccines (Rabies, Distemper, and Bordetella), CURRENT on flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and either dog social or neutral. NO AGGRESSIVE DOGS. (I have experience with reactive dogs, but we will be on a crate and rotate basis with my personal dogs if one were to stay in my home.)

Wow!!! Jorie is absolutely amazing…(in case you don’t read any further) This was our first time going out of town and trusting our pup with anyone, so we were quite nervous about this, we stopped by to meet her and from that instance we knew she was right for us, she cuddled and played with him, like he was her very own. When we came back to leave our pup with her she reassured us, that our pup would feel like he was on vacation himself, and she was true to her word….everyday while we were on vacation we received 1,2, and 3 pics from her showing us what a great time he was having…Jorie put us at ease and we couldn’t ask for anyone better…so if you have truly read all this …reach out to her, you won’t find a better person than her, she’s simply amazing.

Kassia was able to watch my puppy Dalton extremely last minute, which I’m so grateful for! She communicated clearly and often so I was never worried about him. You can tell she’s a true dog lover because when my man picked him up, he was full of joy. Won’t hesitate to book with her again!

I am so glad I met Joy and Dan through here! Our regular sitter had to cancel last minute due to being sick and with only a days notice they were able to set up a same day meet and greet. I left their feeling more then confident about them and dropped off my boxer Lola the next day. Within seconds of us dropping off I got an adorable picture of Lola getting belly rubs from her children, she was definitely in doggy heaven. We recieved a couple more pictures throughout her stay and my mind was definitely put at ease and I knew she was in great hands. They will definitely be my go to sitters from now on and I highly recommend them! Thanks Joy and Dan!
