“Katie was so nice and personable and was great with timing and feeding! Our boy has a special diet but I was confident that Katie would handle it with ease. We received many pictures of playtime!!”

“Jada was able to help us out in a pinch! She quickly went over to our house, brought a water bowl and even offered to get food for our dog while we were stuck at the airport. So thankful for Jada’s quick help!”


“Another great visit from Mandy! She gave zippy his meds, played with him and let him out to go potty! My husband and I (and Zippy) loves when she stops by!”


“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!!”


“We were so thankful for Meghan stepping in so last minute to take care of Delta! She was always right on time and went above and beyond to make sure Delta was safe, happy, and healthy! Will definitely be booking with Meghan again!”


About: I have had dogs my entire life, and taken care of them in full for my family, friends and neighbors. I love four legged furry friends; giving them walks, playing with them and making them feel comfortable. I have always adopted rescue dogs so have a good sense of how to take care of apprehensive dogs, as well as hyperactive or dogs that need more attention and a patient trainer. I have amateur experience training dogs and have learned tips from my sister who is an experienced dog trainer and dog walker. I have chickens at home and have cared for furry, scaled and feathered friends in the past, I love them all. I am patient and loving when it comes to taking care of animals and hope you will consider me to take care of your best friend(s)! My partner and I have recently lost our best furry friend and I would love a reason to get outside more often with my favorite animal (dogs!) or any animal at all. I currently work full time but am off on Sundays/Mondays as well as evenings. My job allows me to leave midday as needed. If I can plan ahead with a care schedule, I have no issue fitting walks/care as needed. I personally have always had free range dogs, but have experience with free ranging as well as crated dogs. I am comfortable working with contained pets as well; chickens, other birds, snakes, tarantulas etc.

“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!”


“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!”


“Kaitlyn was amazing with my cat! She always came on time and sent me pictures of my cat. She was easy to communicate with and made me extremely comfortable knowing that my cat was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again soon.”


“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.”


“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!”


“Ashley took care of our two cats while we were away and ensured that they both had everything they needed! Happy to build a relationship with someone we trust so we can relax while we’re away.”


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. I work from home, so I can easily hop over to tend to your pet throughout my workday and even more frequently during the weekends! I treat every pet (whether it’s my own or not) as an angel baby. 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. Every pet is different and has different needs, so I take what an owner says regarding their care very seriously.

About: Mom to two cats and one male dog, all fixed and friendly. I was raised with dogs and cats and have earned the nickname "dog whisperer" over the years from my family. Truthfully my favorite family members are the furry four legged ones. I am available weekdays before 8am, after 5pm and all weekend! I walk my dog twice a day and would love to walk yours too! I have a three bedroom home so pets can be easily separated. I also have a 95% fenced yard. As for care in your home my husband can care for our pets at our home so I can spend as much time with yours as necessary.

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.

“Brittany was amazing. I booked with her kind of last minute and she fit some time in with me to do a meet and greet before I left. She did such a good job taking care of my 2 cats and they seemed to really enjoy her company which is a statement because one of my cats is not too fond of having company lol. I also needed an extension due to my flight getting delayed and Brittany came through for me with no issues. I appreciate how thorough she was and would definitely book with her again and recommend others to as we’ll :)”

He did an awesome job caring for my two dogs. I was nervous leaving my two behind with someone new, but he was great. I got great feedback after each day and felt very comfortable. He was very attentive in the directions I gave, responsive and friendly. I will be using him again for future needs.

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!!

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!
