“Katie was absolute perfection. Lena takes a long time to warm up to new people but she immediately attached herself to Katie. Katie was so patient and kind towards my dog and made me feel completely at ease. She took a multitude of pictures and updated me about how every visit went!”


“Rileigh was absolutely AMAZING taking care of my German shepherd. He is high anxiety and high energy, but he immediately bonded with Rileigh. I was so relieved and I truly cannot put into words how wonderful she is as a human and a dog sitter. Thank you so much, Rileigh! I am so grateful!”


“Erika is calm, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. She has been coming to my house to do midday drop ins for my two sighthounds. They are usually reserved around new people, but Erika won them over right away. Highly recommend!”


“If you want to feel good about leaving your pets behind when away then Jada is the person! She went above and beyond for my pets. She spent a lot of time with them and provided extra love and attention! Highly recommended ?????”


“Amanda was absolutely amazing! This was my first time using Rover, and I felt so safe and comfortable with her watching my kitties. My apartment unfortunately had a leak while I was away, and she went above and beyond to make sure that it was taken care of. She provided photos every day of my boys and spent time getting to know them and building trust by giving them treats and hanging out with them. 10/10! Thank you, Amanda!”


“Mandy was so great! We loved the pic updates. It was our first time using rover and the updates gave us reassurance that our fur babies were in good hands and being taken care of. We were so grateful tht she was able to extend our booking and allow us to enjoy a couple more days on a much needed vacation ! Would def recommend and rebook in the future. Thanks again Mandy !”


“She was absolutely amazing with my dog & cat!!! They instantly loved her. I really appreciated all the photos and updates! She was great, and I’ll definitely be using her again on my next trip!”


“I was worried my dog would have anxiety and a hard time being boarded in a new environment with loud noises, and unfamiliar people. She hasn’t had much human interaction and barks out of fear. I’m so glad i used Rover and met Joseph, my trip was very relaxing, I didn’t have to worry about Bell and her safety at all. I was in full contact with joseph the entire trip and received photos daily. Highly recommend!!”


“Murph loves Hannah and we can’t wait for our next visit!”


About: +15 years caring / sitting dogs and cats Sat multi animal homes including 3-4 dogs and 6-7 cats. Sometimes I feel I’d qualify to work at a literal zoo. High energy and punctual - prepared to walk / play as long as your dog needs. Administered medicines including pills, powders, creams, ear/ mouth injections, to a range of animals (young-senior). Patients range from very grumpy cats to unenthused dogs. Cared for several animals and administered medicines as needed. Ranging from retired greyhounds who have trouble walking to elderly bulldogs who may need a helpful roll to get up. I am a full time artist so I have a very flexible work schedule. I work from home so I can schedule drop ins and walks on short notice and with limited interruption. I have a reliable vehicle to get me to and from visits. I’ll provide unobtrusive and reliable pet care in your home. I am neat, don’t rush, and I pay attention to detail. I am door locking stickler and a double checker. I’ll stick to the script and let you know if there are any regularities.

“First time. I have no complaints. She cleaned up what was unexpected. It was also very short notice but was great at responding back. I really appreciate it!”


“Rachel was the best!!!!! Our very overprotective great pyrenees loved her so much, we’ve never seen her be so cozy with someone like that! Rachel was very thorough and kind, and sent us alot of pictures! she even went out of her way to the pet store to stock up on something we needed! we will def be booking her again!”


“I am thrilled to have found Shira! She is a lovely person and my cats warmed up to her immediately. Even my elderly, former feral cat loved her. She was quick to communicate about a potential issue with one of the kitties on the first day and it was solved almost immediately. I came home to relaxed and happy cats with immaculate dishes and litter-boxes. It is clear that Shira loves animals and I feel so at peace knowing that I have someone trustworthy to watch my babies in the future.”



“Emily was so awesome with my 2 cats. She always kept me informed on how they were and she even cleaned up their messes. She took time to come do a meet and greet prior. Highly recommend!”


“We are so glad to have chosen Danielle to check in on our cat, Mo. She’s a really nice gal and more importantly Mo approved……and he’s not easy to please! She visited everyday and sent us pics. We’d definitely use her services again if we need to!”


About: Hi friends! First let me say, thank you for considering me as a potential caretaker for your fur babies. I take my job very seriously with heart and compassion. I have had a life surrounded by pets ever since I can remember. I have trained German Shepards with my uncle, done volunteer work with kittens and care for three disabled pets of my own currently. I also work at the humane society with many animals in need. At home and work, I am relied on for bathing, feeding, walking, medication and more. I have experience with all ages and temperaments of animals. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile, I hope your needs are perfectly met! My schedule does vary but I am mostly available early mornings and late afternoons however I always keep my calendar updated for so you can get the most accurate bookings. I genuinely care for your pets comfort and believe in treating them with true respect. I am extremely patient and fantastic at deescalating tough situations. I am able to administer medications and crate dogs when needed.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life, a pet mother for 7 years, and a pet sitter starting now! I would love to provide you peace of mind while you’re away from your furry loved ones.

Older dog? An angel baby. Little rowdy kitten? An angel baby. They will be in the best hands with me and will get care that is tailored to what their owner specifies to me.

Allendale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Margaret was easy to work with and did just as asked in coming to check on our cat and take care of food, water, and litter box. I recommend Margaret!

Holly is wonderful! My baby's lover her and I get the most precious photos of them while I am at work.

Meredith was a great sitter ! Very communicative and my dog was very well taken care of. Would hire her again 🙂

Kaila is a terrific person - very nice, personable, and very good with Daisy. I had Kaila coming in because I had surgery and needed help with my dog's basic needs - feeding her, walking her, etc. Kaila gave it her very best. Daisy, my lab, pretty much didn't want to leave my side. I didn't realize she was too attached to me. Kaila did a great job & tried hard to get Daisy to play, walk, etc. I would highly recommend Kaila to anyone who needs dog care!!

Amanda was so kind and responsive. She took amazing care of our kitty during her daily check ins while we were away. She went above and beyond with trouble shooting our new auto cleaning litter box and bringing in packages. Would recommend trusting her with the care of your fur babies!

Excellent service as always! Jenny goes above and beyond to make sure the "Lil's" are well taken care of!

Emily is fantastic! She takes such good care of my kitty, I never need to worry about her when I’m gone. My cat loves her, and she doesn’t love many people haha. I highly recommend her!

Kelsey saved us! She took care of my diabetic dog while I was out of town. She checked his blood sugar and gave him insulin two times a day for 13 days. She is loving and thoughtful towards the pets.

Hampton is so wonderful! My (normally shy) cat trusts him and is totally comfortable with him which is such a treat and a testament to Hampton’s gentleness. Hampton is always so communicative and lovely and provides the best updates. He even goes so far as to tidy up litter box and take out trash, which I so appreciate! I will continue booking him as long as he’s able to!

Ashleywas amazing with my pets—reliable, caring, and kept me updated the whole time. I came home to happy animals and everything in great shape. Highly recommend!

Brittany is great! Very nice, willing to work with your schedule. My pup needs meds at the same time everyday and she has been amazing with providing them!
