“Brin is so great! My cats seem to really like her already and as long as they’re available, I will be rebooking (: I have a job that forces me to be gone for days at a time and it helps a lot to have someone I can trust to check on my very important boys”
“Rachel is awesome! Everything went very smoothly and she provided excellent check ins and detailed updates. Would definitely book her again in the future!”
“Taylor did a great job checking in on our sweet Snawfus. I appreciated her timely communication, availability & kindness. I loved getting some picture updates as well. We will definitely use her services again.”
“My 3 boys absolutely love this family and consider them their best friends. They are so excited to see them. We know they are in excellent hands and can leave worry free. 5 stars!!”
“I am so happy I picked Logan as my sitter. They not only made sure my dog was comfortable but they kept open communication of any changes in routine. I definitely recommend them for future sittings but also to folks that are looking for a sitter.”
“Juliette is absolutely amazing! She’s been watching our puppy for over a month now and we couldn’t have asked for a better person. She truly spends quality time with our puppy and makes sure that she gets the enrichment and stimulation needed. She’s worked with our puppy on so many things and it’s been great. Highly highly recommend!”
About: My entire life has consisted of dogs and cats in the house and I love my furry pals. Currently co-parenting two senior dogs. Can teach sit, lay, stay and better walking habits. Also experience with animal home check-ups, feeding meds and little play dates. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! I'm a stay-at-home artist with a flexible schedule, which means I can easily work in a few pet care clients throughout the week or weekend. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or extended stays, I can usually adapt my day to meet your pet’s needs. Let’s chat and see how I can help! I always aim to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible by sticking closely to their usual routine—feeding times, walks, play, medications, and all the little things that help them feel secure while their humans are away. When I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and thoughtful about your pet’s environment. I take the time to understand their personality, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. Whether it's giving extra love to a senior pet, administering meds, or just keeping a shy cat company, I care for every animal like they’re my own. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands.
“Ellery was so communicative while watching my cats. Thorough updates were given & the best pictures were taken while I was gone. I’m sure my cats didn’t even want me to come back! I’d hire Ellery over and over again!”
“Amanda was such a sweet and attentive sitter for Denver! She gave great updates during her visits with him and followed our care instructions perfectly. Thank you, Amanda!”
“Ash was amazing with our two cats! She was very communicative, sent great pictures, and spent the time to get to know the two during our meet and greet especially their slightly complicated feeding routine. Both our cats were super relaxed and seemed to barely notice we were gone when we came back!”
About: I’ve had and cared for dogs my entire adult life from puppies to seniors. I’ve fed them, walked them, cleaned up after them, bathed them, played with them and loved on them. I have a high tolerance for slobber, hair, and muddy paws. I’m basically a stay home dog mom with weekdays and some evenings and weekend days free. I walk daily for exercise and would love some doggy company. I have four dogs at home and am used to walking them on leash, not letting them escape when entering and leaving the house and the enthusiastic greetings they offer when they’ve been home alone. I clean up whatever mischief they’ve gotten into and give them play time or cuddles or whatever they need. Before leaving, I make sure they have water and their environment is safe.
“Vanessa was great! She was super accommodating during my last minute request, and was able to fit me in to her schedule for the meet and greet and drop in visits. She communicated well, and sent lots of pictures. She left my apartment tidy, and my cat happy!”
“Kaylee was excellent, friend and responsive! I felt like my cat was in excellent hands and the pictures of him cuddling with her were absolutely adorable! Will definitely be requesting Kaylee again for any future trips!”

Monique L.
“My dog is a two year old mini poodle who has had a pretty rough beginning. I adopted him at our local animal control center in February. Monique (Mo) has such a wonderful patient way of working with Lucky, Mo's voice can be either playful or in teaching mode. She praise my dog constantly. Mo taught him to "sit" in a very short time, using some treats. I have followed up with Lucky on walks, but, in effect, without treats. He holds treats in his mouth so treats are given when we get home. I bought a set of boots for Lucky for protection on our terribly hot pavements and desert rocks and stickers. He took about 3 seconds to get them off when I fastened them. But with Mo, he was willing to keep them on in the house, Walking in that high legged, convulsive, floppy fashion, Mo took him for a walk in the neighborhood. They came back in half an hour with Lucky walking normally and seeming proud of it. Its a work in progress, I can get the boots on him and have him walk around the house, but I haven't tried a long walk yet. Mo has my complete confidence and trust in her abilities with dogs. Rose F”

Jerrine B.
“Jerrine (aka Blossom) has repeatedly walked, loved on, and patiently cared for my two baby girls. She has managed Rose when she was scared and hurting with patience and care. She had patience with River when first meeting my antisocial older doggo. I have had Blossom dog sit in my home for three days and I got picture updates, had very happy puppies when I got home, and I felt completely comfortable with her in my home. I have also meet her pack of pups and seen her manage dogs of many sizes, some who are very clever, and some who are a bit special all with nothing but affection. 10/10 would recommend her as your sitter.”

Alvernon Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Patricia is an exceptional pet sitter! This was the 3rd time she took wonderful care of our cats and kept us updated with adorable pictures from every visit. Her attention to detail and love for our fur babies were evident in every interaction. Thanks to Patricia, we could enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pets. She knows them and they adore her! We highly recommend Patricia as a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. 🐈⬛ 🐈
Fantastic sitter. Enthusiastic, capable, above and beyond. I was on a three week overseas trip and I had never given the keys to my home and care of the cats to someone outside my family before. She made me feel completely at ease with her contacts and numerous photos and videos of them. She’s fantastic and a genuine lover of animals. I can’t recommend her enough and will engage her again anytime I need a sitter!!!!
Sonya was such a blessing! I had such a wonderful experience with Sonya as our dog walker for Lilo and Odin while on a work trip! She took care of my pups for three days, providing walks throughout the day, feedings, plenty of love and pets, and even worked on some training. Her communication through the Rover app was fantastic, and I really appreciated the regular updates. It was clear how much Lilo and Odin adored her from how happy they were in the photos she uploaded. I would 100% book Sonya again, even if it's just for a "hello" walk because of how much my dogs loved her. Highly recommend!
Ash was amazing with our two cats! She was very communicative, sent great pictures, and spent the time to get to know the two during our meet and greet especially their slightly complicated feeding routine. Both our cats were super relaxed and seemed to barely notice we were gone when we came back!
