“I needed a sitter a bit last minute for my kitties while I visited my mom. Mariah was more than happy to check in on my babies and she did an amazing job! They warmed up to her so well and she kept me updated throughout. Thank you Mariah!! I’ll be rebooking for sure :)”
“Christian was wonderful!! So polite and excellent with our kitties! He followed all of our crazy instructions and even got our “scaredy cat” to come down and say “hello.” When we got home, and were settling in, we found our Tiger cat waiting by the door for him!! ♥️ He went above and beyond for us and our kitties (even our packages were safe thanks to Christian bringing them inside for us!). We will definitely ask him to work with us when we go away again! Thank you again Christian!”

About: Former pet care assistant at a boarding and daycare facility, which I left after relocating for my husband’s career. I have years of personal experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I also own three birds and have worked with a variety of reptiles, so I’m comfortable caring for more exotic pets as well. I offer reliable, loving care tailored to your pet’s unique needs, whether it’s playtime, walks, cozy companionship, or administering medications and giving shots. Just send me a message if you have any questions. I have plenty of time for your pets needs as I own my own small online business through etsy. I have open availability as well. I care for pets with a focus on their comfort, safety, and individual needs. In my home or a client’s home, I follow their established routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special care instructions. I make sure they have a clean, cozy space, fresh water at all times, and plenty of attention and affection. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, administering medication, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like part of the family.
About: I’ve been watching all sorts of pets ever since I can remember. My family and I have always been the go-to for friends and family needing a pet sitter. We used to take care of pets on Rover for 3 years and made friends with many clients and their pets. This time I’m doing it on my own. I have two dogs and two cats at home who all love each other. I currently have a part-time job 3 days a week, so I have a lot of free time to look after your pets! I can watch them after 5pm on the days I work, and at any time on the days I’m free. I have a lot of experience in getting along with dogs and can do many things to check up on them such as refilling their food and water bowls, cleaning up any accidents or messes, playing with or walking them so they are tired out for the day, as well as any special instructions/needs your dog has.
“Bailey always takes great care of my pup. She is always on-time and stays the full length of her drop-in visit. She leaves great Rover cards so I am able to see what they were up to during her visit. I appreciate how well she communicates and how consistent of a sitter she has been for me. She is very good with big dogs. I highly recommend!”

Alafaya cat parents share their Rover experiences
Luana was great! She dropped in to take care of my cat who has some specials needs while I was away for a weekend and she was very attentive to details. She sent me some pictures on each visit along with an update, which was nice. It gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend Luana and I’ll be booking with her again.
Camila did an incredible job taking care of our two cats for 3 weeks. We received daily updates and photos/videos from her. She even notified us when our AC was acting up. Camila was very consistent with her timing, and even switched the time for one day when we asked. We would highly recommend Camila and look forward to using her again in the future!
Gabriela watched our 8 parrots while we were away and did a great job! We loved seeing the pics of the birds knowing they were safe and well cared for while we were away! We highly recommend Gabriela, she was great and we are lucky to find her and will be rebooking again.
I have never left my cats in the care of anyone I did not directly know before, but this time I had to, with late notice at that, and moving forward when I have to do so again I will absolutely choose Jocelyn every time! She is incredibly caring, concise, punctual, communicative, attentive, and trustworthy. One of my cats never comes out from hiding for strangers, and even rarely for close friends who he has met before, but with Jocelyn he was out and about! She sent great pictures of our cats and their food, water, and litter. There is absolutely no question of the quality of care she provides, even on brief visits! If you are in a similar boat, I highly recommend Jocelyn!
Ella was incredibly efficient with her drop-in visits for my cat. She followed all instructions perfectly and even sent detailed updates with photos after each visit. Her responsiveness to my messages game me complete peace of mind while I was away. Definitely booking her again in the future!
Leia did a great job caring for our cat while we were away. She paid attention to the specifics of his needs and even double checked to be sure on things. I sincerely appreciated her communication about the drop in visits and keeping us in the loop. I would absolutely book with her again!
