I cannot say enough positive things about Kasey. My dog is a rescue we found living in a dumpster only four months ago. I was so nervous about going out of town because he doesn't like strangers and is very anxious. Kasey is a total professional who was able to quickly bond with my dog, and kept me informed every step of the way on how Taco's visits were going and how he was behaving. I missed my dog, but thanks to the excellent care Kasey provided, I never once worried about him.

About: Hi, I’m Ocean! I’m an experienced Veterinary Technician with over 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals. Working in veterinary medicine has given me the knowledge and confidence to care for pets of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, a senior who needs extra patience, or requires medications or special care, you can feel confident knowing they’re in experienced hands. My top priorities are always your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know they’re family. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine because I already work full-time as a veterinary technician. I’m used to structuring my days around animal care, including feeding schedules, medication times, monitoring behavior, and making sure each pet gets the attention they need. On a typical day, I’m already in a rhythm of caring for multiple animals, so adding pet sitting or drop-ins fits in smoothly before or after work, as well as on my days off. I’m very organized and plan ahead to make sure each pet in my care gets consistent, reliable attention without feeling rushed. I’m a calm, reliable, and detail oriented person who understands that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether your pet needs extra patience, a specific routine, medication, or just some loving attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and my goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels right at home.

Lisa is amazing! I have absolutely no worries while on vacation. Two visits per day keeps my headaches away! Lisa is super reliable, completes exactly what is on the cat care list, and some more. She even brushes and plays with my two boys, and vacuums the cat litter off the floor. On the evening of our return, she texted to see if we were home to make sure the cats were taking care of. Thank you so much for caring, Lisa! Thank you Rover for connecting us!

About: I grew up around countless different species of dogs, whether it be the ones I had growing up or other peoples. Every shape, size, and breed i’ve ever encountered I fell in love with instantly. Taking care of dogs is something that comes so naturally to me being that they have been apart of my life for so long. I can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently working, but it’s always either all morning or all night, leaving me with a whole half of the day for me to take care of any dog in need! My schedule is posted weekly and I will be able to notify you of my availability for the following week every Thursday. I am very open to taking any preferences or suggestions for anyone interested in my assistance, and I will go out of my way to care for your pet as best you see fit!

This was my first time leaving my cat home alone for so long as well as using Rover so I was a little nervous, but Deedra was awesome! She sent me detailed messages along with pictures every time she dropped in to check on my cat. Communication was also very easy. She definitely eased my worries since I knew my cat was in good hands. Thanks for everything, Deedra!

About: My first job, at age 12, was pet sitting/dog walking. I've had pets my entire life ranging from dogs and cats to rodents, fish, and reptiles. I currently have 4 cats. I have experience with older dogs and cats as well kittens and puppies. I've also spent years working in customer service so no request will be too much. I have plenty of time for walks and playtime. I can keep up whatever routine your pet is used to. I live near a dog park and can take your pup if they like to play with other dogs If your dog doesn't like cats, my cats can easily be kept separate in my room. They spend most of their day sleeping in there anyway

About: -1 year as a Veterinary Assistant. -2 years as a Doggy Daycare Counselor. -8 year volunteer experience of fostering kittens and adult dogs. -Experience caring for smaller animals such as rodents. -Comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and species. Includes senior and disabled animals. - Trained in fear-free practices, animal behavior, and reading body language. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am happy to follow your pet’s normal routine. This includes feeding times, medication routines, playtime, and any other care instructions you provide. I am available after 10 AM on all days except Tuesdays. I prioritize providing consistent, reliable visits and building trust with every animal I care for so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I believe pets feel safest when they have a predictable routine. When caring for pets in their home, I prioritize maintaining their normal schedule, respecting their space, and following their owner’s instructions. I take a fear-free approach by allowing pets to interact at their own pace and never force attention or handling. I pay close attention to body language and individual needs so I can provide personalized care that helps each pet feel safe. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels comfortable, respected, and cared for while you’re away.

Jennifer is a wonderful cat sitter! I was able to book her on short notice and it worked out beautifully!!! My 2 cats didn’t take long to warm up to her and that’s saying something with my one (calico) cat.

Went out of town for long weekend, Olga stopped by once a day in the afternoon to check in with my cat Dixie. Sent back pictures and info. everyday. Cat seemed very happy in photos. Just got home little while ago, Dixie seemed fine, like she was well taken care of. Would be very confident for Olga to watch my pet next time I go out of town !!

Alex needs to rule the world because it could use a little heart and kindness. My kitties adored her and made a new best friend! Her notes were very thorough and thoughtful. As well as great photos of my boys. I will definitely hire her again and will recommend her to friends as well as the Rover app. as it makes being away from my kitties a little easier knowing they’re in trusted hands

We invited her twice to have our talk and instructions before we left for 2 weeks. She sent us daily pictures of our dogs and cat from every visits. When she couldn't find the cat one day, we told her it's ok, the cat was raised by the dogs and she goes outside to do her business. Later she found the cat and sent us pictures as proof. We will be using her again whenever we have to leave our pets.
