“Tara is a fantastic pet sitter! She took care of my two cats while I was gone for 6 days. She has a warm and friendly personality and is so conscientious. She did lots of extras and made sure the cats were well taking care of. She was comfortable administering medication to one of my cats, which was a great relief for me. I highly recommend Tara.”

“Paul was responsive and incredibly communicative. I needed to take a last-minute international trip. Within a few hours, we were able to schedule a time for Paul to take care of Clementine. I am definitely using his services again the next time I have to travel.”

“Maggie was awesome. She was great with both cats and dogs and is a great communicator and extremely reliable - especially as she was pulled in last minute. I would absolutely book with her again.”

“Dominique is an exceptional dog sitter! He took amazing care of our large, active dog, managing his energy with ease and ensuring he was happy and well-exercised throughout his stay. Dominique is a fantastic communicator, always prompt and clear in his updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He truly went above and beyond—not only taking excellent care of our pup but also helping out around the house, like taking out the garbage. We couldn’t recommend him more highly and will definitely book him again!”

“Leo was remarkable! He was able to get my extremely shy girl to warm up to him. He left great notes and photos in the rover cards. I was so happy to have Leo taking care of my girl!”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid. Ever since I can remember there have always been pets and animals in and around my family. My family had dogs and cats growing up, I've also had fish, turtles, and geckos. I have some experience (not certified) in dog training, as I trained my current dog with my brother. I am comfortable with dogs of any size, having grown up around larger breeds. I currently work in the evenings, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays. This leaves me free in the mornings and afternoons to walk and take care of pets. I make sure I have all the information I need about whoever I'm looking after. I ask for the owner's preferences with types of walks, length, play, treats, etc. I report any potential issues with the pets to the owners.
“Samantha took such good care of my babies while I was away on a trip. She is playful, caring, and truly attentive. She sent us pictures every day and communicated everything in great detail. When one of my dogs started showing signs of ear irritation, she noticed it right away and acted quickly her judgment made us feel completely at ease. We have three dogs, and she did an amazing job with all of them. Highly recommend her!”

“Shannon did a great job of taking care of our puppy! This was our first time leaving him, and Shannon was very communicative throughout the visit to put our mind at ease.”

“Emili took great care of my two kitties- And when she noticed a potential problem one of them might have, she notified me right away - and all turned out just fine.”

“Fabulous! Iryna is so kind, thoughtful and detailed. She took the best care of my kitties on such a last minute trip. I am so grateful she was there to step in and help. Iryna is truly such a pleasure!”

“Esther-Elizabeth did such a great job taking care of my three kitties over the holiday! I have one kitty who needs insulin and one who is shy and she treated them like her own! I’m so glad I found her and would absolutely recommend her as someone who thinks of my pets as family and wants to make sure they’re in good hands. I also felt her rate was very reasonable for the care she provided.”

“Shereen was wonderful taking care of our cat and promptly provided updates including pictures and videos of our cat playing. She is super friendly and very easy to work with, and also made the process of using Rover very easy, guiding us through the steps in a timely manner. Highly recommend her for any of your pets needs.”

Alcova Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maia was absolutely fantastic! She was super communicative and sent a bunch of adorable photos and lengthy notes with updates on my cats. I have two little anxious babies and she was so good about making sure they took their meds and I could see from the photos how relaxed they were around her. When I came home they weren’t even mad at me for being gone! Would 10/10 recommend!

Sarah took amazing care of our cat while we were out of town! He’s normally very shy, so when he immediately went up and nuzzled her, I knew it was a good sign :) Sarah took FANTASTIC pictures, gave us thorough updates on how he was doing, and left our apartment perfect and clean.

Ann was an incredible pet sitter. She was well-organized, always kept us informed about our cat's status, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure our cat had a positive experience. If I ever need a pet sitter, I will definitely go with Ann again, and I could not recommend her more.

I had a great experience meeting with Fernanda during our meet and greet. She's friendly, professional, and took the time to get to know both me and my cat (even though she was hiding!). I appreciated how thoughtful she was in asking questions about my cat's routine, preferences, and care needs. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals and wants to provide the best possible care. The meet and greet left me feeling confident and comfortable about leaving my cat in her care. I would absolutely recommend Fernanda to other pet parents looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!
