About: My pets have always been my children! I’ve had my own pets for 25 years as well as family pets growing up. I also enjoy light puppy/dog training. My schedule is very flexible as I am an entrepreneur. I may also be able to accommodate rush requests so please feel free to reach out! I’m available to feed, provide medication, walk your pet, or let them out to the yard for play and potty break. Your pet will always be leashed while outside of your home/ fenced yard.
“Beth did amazing with our highly needy and extremely anxious Cat. She spent time with him and was very patient to work with him in a way where he felt safe and comfortable with a new human in his space. We are very thankful for her and her patience and quality care for our one of a kind, pet! We highly recommend her and cannot thank her enough!”
“Katie is a true animal person. She is very responsible and caring to your pet. I highly recommend her for pet sitting. She does a great job and your pets will love her too.”
“Laura was fantastic! I have very shy cats and she did a wonderful job being patient with them, giving them treats, and letting them decide when to initiate contact, culminating in one cat actually letting Laura pet her for 10 min! Unheard of with my very shy babies! Laura also left wonderful daily updates for me to read and lots of great photos of the cats and was very diligent in cleaning. Overall amazing cat sitter and will absolutely book Laura again!”
“We were so happy we found Megan to watch our new cat while we were out of the country for a week! She provided daily updates with lots of photos, and she took the time to bond with our kitty, who is very cautious of new people. Her care helped to ease my nerves and I felt confident we left our cat in good care. We would 100% use Megan for future bookings and would highly recommend her!”
“We have now used Carolyn twice to check in on our cat. The pictures and little updates that she is always sure to send give us peace of mind while we are away - which is HUGE. Our fur baby is usually pretty anti-social with strangers but has never had an issue warming up to Carolyn. Very grateful to have found her through this app!”
“Madison was incredible! Very communicative, arrived on time and stayed the entirety of her booking, and sent me photos every day. My cat is very shy but Madison was patient with her. She was also flexible and that allowed me to extend my vacation knowing my kitty was in good hands.”
“Sarah took excellent care of our cat Hoagie while we were away. Her detailed notes and pictures were so nice to read, and she was communicative and responsive throughout.”
About: HI, I'm an active, animal-loving mom of 2 grown boys with 12 years experience of caring for my own rambunctious dog, who passed away last year. I also love to walk! What a great opportunity to combine 2 loves :) I will treat your dog with the utmost care and follow your specific instructions to keep their routine. I will be sure to give them all the attention they want! I am responsible & reliable and can't wait to meet your pup! I have flexibility from 8am-5pm Monday through Friday and can walk your dog 1-4 times per day. Depending on the weekend, I may have some availability in the mornings then as well. Same applies to dog/cat drop-in visits. Currently I’m only dog-walking and doing pet check-ins. When I'm in your home, I will be very respectful of your space. I will also treat your pets as if they were my own and will be sure to keep them safe & happy. Please ensure your pet has up to date vaccinations-thank you!
“Hannah was great when we needed last minute help with our cat! She came over and met him beforehand and I was able to show her all of his things. She is also quick to respond which is a plus!!”
About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs. Now I have two fur babies of my own (cats) and cannot wait to have a dog when I have a larger living situation. I love animals, and will always put their needs before my own, they can’t speak for themselves after all! I’m outgoing, responsible, and personable. I have previous experience pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and family, and hope the “Rover” app will help me do this for you as well. I promise to treat your pets as my own, and to make the experience enjoyable for both of us! Long walks, games of fetch, and snuggles are my favorite. Thank you for your consideration, and if you have any questions feel free to contact me. I have a very light workload at my primary job and work from home April-December. I love all kinds of animals and am looking for something to do with all my free time! I'm just as happy outside playing fetch or snuggled up on the couch. I have two fur babies at home so would prefer to take care of pets in their home to lessen the stress and disruption of my own animals!
“Alyssa did an awesome job caring for my puppies. She was a great communicator and sent great pictures. I requested her pretty last minute but she was very responsive and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Elaine came to my house for a drop in visit since we had to be away for most of the day. She spent time with Khola, took her for a walk and gave her a snack. I was comfortable putting my trust in Elaine to come into our house and take good care of our little person in a dog suit. We will also be using Elaine for boarding.”
About: For almost a decade, I have provided dedicated care for my own dog while my family has been away, ensuring their health, happiness, and well-being. This hands-on experience has made me highly attentive to a pet’s daily needs, from feeding routines to exercise and companionship. I understand the importance of maintaining a familiar and loving environment, making pets feel secure even when their owners are away. My patience, adaptability, and commitment to care set me apart—I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am quite literally ready to attend to your dog’s every need just as I have been doing so for my own so long! I am available all mornings, late afternoons, and throughout nights every day of the week. I work part-time from 9am to 1pm, so outside of that I am always available I have a fenced in front yard and backyard, I have a car so I can take them to the local dog park, if your fur baby makes a mess I’m not afraid to clean it up and handle the problem
“Elizabeth was very prompt and professional. My pets are not used to me leaving and she went above and beyond what was expected for each visit. I felt like she was really paying attention to both of my pets specific needs and personalities. She was very flexible with my requests and worked with me to accommodate my pets. I will request her services again if I go out of town.”

Anchorage cat parents share their Rover experiences
I have probably said this before, but I always have such great peace of mind when Kylie looks after Guillermo. I am typically gone for a few days at a time — this time around I was gone for much longer but I felt at ease knowing he’d be in great hands. As always Kylie was communicative, caring and adaptive to the changes in Guillermo’s feeding routine. I can’t thank her enough for being so great with him!!
Laura is fantastic! Laura sent pictures and wrote out detailed notes on what she did every day! Very communicative, respectful, follows care instructions to a tea and always on time! She is great and we will definitely be asking her to watch our 2 fur babies in the future!!
I would leave more than 5 stars if I could. Sara was absolutely wonderful and professional. She watched our 3 cats while we were away on vacation, including 2 shy/sensitive cats that don't easily warm up to new people. Sara came for a meet and greet in advance and ensured she knew each cats preferences, as well as ours for receiving updates. She was prompt in providing updates, let us know about questionable activities around our house, and was simply wonderful with our girls. She followed through on instructions (ie when to change water & clean litter boxes) without needing reminders, and the pictures showed that she made an effort to visit/play/brush/snuggle with our cats daily - and they quickly trusted her enough to engage with her the same way they do with us when we are home. Highly recommend and we look forward to working with Sara again!
Priyanka was so amazing to help us for a very last minute weekend trip. I am looking forward to her caring for our pets again in the future. She was very prompt, sent detailed updates and cared so kindly for our two kittens. They got plenty of play time and lots of cuddles while we were away. Thank you, Priyanka!
We have now used Carolyn twice to check in on our cat. The pictures and little updates that she is always sure to send give us peace of mind while we are away - which is HUGE. Our fur baby is usually pretty anti-social with strangers but has never had an issue warming up to Carolyn. Very grateful to have found her through this app!
She was as great the second time as she was the first. Because of a death in the family I needed someone last minute and Gabriella came through with quick responses and a pleasant attitude. She got along with Kasi, our beloved kitty, and handled the oddities of our home and schedule well. Thanks for the attention.
