“Great communication. Brought treats for our cats (Checked with us first) Seemed sincerely affectionate and fond of our cats. Gave us daily updates beyond the pictures and duties performed. We felt very comfortable being away because we felt our girls were in really good hands.”
About: Growing up my mothe raised German shepherd puppies and wolf puppies. There isn't a time I can remember not having one! After moving out I adopted a golden retriever mix and later took in a Rottweiler mastiff mix. Lots of experience in walking, training, bathing, and lots of other things when it comes to dogs! Over the years I've had quite a few cats and am able to take care of there needs! I'm currently a part time waitress with a 6 and 4 year old.. I've been trying to find something I can do that I love while they are in school or home with me! They have grown up around both cats, dogs and farm animals and know how to treat them well. I have a lead to put the dog out to get some time outside, otherwise there's plenty of trails for me to walk them. I'm able to crate (if provided).
About: Hi! My name is Alec! I’m a 29 year old registered behavior technician in Kailua! My hobbies and interests include cooking, skiing, reading, camping, and cleaning. I am originally from Wheaton, Minnesota, but moved to Oahu in September of 2021. I would love to babysit, walk, and spoil your wonderful pets! I have experience with dogs and cats, and am comfortable with puppies and kittens, elderly and disabled pets, or animals with any special conditions. If you have any questions about me, feel free to reach out. I cant wait to meet you and your precious pets! I have a variable work schedule, so I can often fit visits in at random times. On days that I have off I would love to spend the day spoiling your furry friends. I will follow your instructions to the letter, and ensure the safety of your pet before beginning any activity. I would never take any risks with your precious pooches!
About: Growing up on a farm, I took care of many animals from a young age- cats, dogs, horses, rabbits and chickens. As an adult, I have always had an animal and love taking care of friends and family's pets. I've taken care of puppies, kittens and senior dogs as well and can provide them all the love and attention they deserve I'm currently working part-time, and have time to play with your pups and cats! Whether it's an early morning walk, evening let out or taking care of your fur baby in your home while you're away- they'll be in good hands. I am happy to come to your home and care for your pet while you're away. I love taking walks so they can stretch those legs, feel comfortable crating animals if that's their routine and happily can play fetch with them in the backyard.
About: I have never lived without a dog in my life, my family trains hunting dogs so I am very familiar with training and dog behaviors. I currently work two part time jobs, one more part time then the other but I'm available on weekends and wednesdays and weekdays after 3pm. I have one pup of my own who is very friendly and loves to make friends and a large unfenced yard, can crate if needed but the crate would need to be provided.
“Daniel was great. He checked in every day and gave Nala plenty of attention. He was upfront about when he'd be at the house and made me feel comfortable knowing our girl was safe. He went above and beyond.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Alexandria
Alexis is phenomenal! I was traveling for about a week over the holidays and had booked her for drop-in visits to check on my cats every other day. It was originally going to be 3 visits, but I had to last minute add in a 4th. She was very responsive and super flexible for me having to add that extra day. My cats all free-feed, but my senior cat (14) has a rather unique feeding routine where I seclude the younger cats so he can eat a separate meal. During our Meet & Greet, I showed her how I do that with them and while I was gone, she jumped right into that routine to make sure they were distracted and Petrie got his meal. She is so kind and compassionate and took excellent care of my babies while I was gone. They all loved her so much too, which says a lot because one of my cats is usually very cautious around new people, but he did not once shy away from Alexis. He couldn't get enough of her and got so many lovins! On the days she wasn’t there, my cats were a little mischievous, so by the time she came for her visit, she almost always had to pick something up or clean up a small mess. That didn’t seem to sway her at all though - she still provided outstanding care for my babies and kept me in the loop on their shenanigans. I don’t typically travel for long periods like that, but having Alexis as my sitter has given me such a peace of mind. Given my babies loved her so much and how well she took care of them and the place, I will not hesitate to book her again for my next trip!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
