1. Marissa M.
“Marissa did 2 drop-in visits a day for my cat Cosmo and I’d definitely rebook her again! Cosmo is really social and Marissa spent some time with him with each visit so was able to stay in his own home while we were away for a few days. Marissa sent us photos with every visit and kept his food/water bowls and litter box clean.”
2. Kimberly A.
“I recently used Kimberly from Rover to take care of my dog, and cats and overall, it was a great experience! Kimberly was very friendly and clearly loves animals, which made me feel comfortable leaving my babies in her care. She provided regular updates and photos, which was a nice touch and helped me feel at ease while I was away. My fur babies seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned, and I appreciated the attention to detail in making sure all of my instructions were followed. Overall, I would definitely recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

11. Caira B.
About: I have taken care of every kind of animal since I was 12. Goats, dogs, pigs, horses, you name it! I just can not get enough animals in my life. I was also a dog groomer in the past! I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to love on your pet and give them the quality time they deserve and need. I am always cautious and sure to keep your pet or pets safe by listening to instructions you have or using instinct I have gained from experience.

13. Skylar K.
About: Hi! I’m Skylar, I’m a high school graduate, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14 and even for my own animals before then. I’ve volunteered at vets so I know basic animal health, and I am flexible with dates and timings to fit your needs(: I currently nanny Tuesday through Thursdays from 9-1 and I pickup other small jobs at a coffee shop on off days. But with that I am flexible to care for your pet whenever you need me, weather it’s staying in your home or dropping in for check ins. I offer to stay in your home or drop in for check ins when needed. When doing so I am sure to love on your animal and play with them as much as they’d like and I am respectful of your home and your belongings. I always make sure to clean up after myself and leave a home better than I found it so that pet owners can return home to a clean place and a happy pet.

I am energetic, active, and outgoing and happy to provide any references or background check needed I live on over an acre in a quiet neighborhood on a cul de sac.
