“So grateful for Karisa's excellent care. I booked her already twice and my cat(s) was/were in great hands. She was punctual and reliable, and was able to give my cat her medication. She sent me daily updates and photos, which helped ease my mind while I was away. I'll definitely be using her services again.”
“She was able to take my dog for a walk on a very short notice. We’ve used her before and she’s very reliable, respectful and responsible. I’m sure my doggie is happy to see her. Highly recommended.”
About: I’m a warm, friendly, and dependable pet sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young, and friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me with their pets. I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just extra attention and cuddles. I have open availability during the summer (June 13–August 10), which allows me to provide flexible visits, walks, and plenty of attention for your pets throughout the day. During the rest of the year, I’m available before 7:30 AM and after 3:30 PM on weekdays, with additional flexibility on weekends. I’m reliable and committed to making sure your pet gets consistent care, exercise, and love. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs who love having company. I always supervise interactions and make sure every pet feels safe and at ease. I treat every pet like my own and create a calm, loving environment while you’re away.
“Daphne did an amazing job! I will definitely recommend her to all my friends and anyone out there. My pup is very well taken care of when she’s with him!”
“Homira was the sweetest with our dog despite her being a little anxious. She took her on a walk, fed her, and had the most warm and gentle approach with her. She also sent us several photos and videos. 10/10 would book again!”
“Zachariah and Morgan take wonderful care of my cats! They are very communicative about how the cats are doing and always send pictures as well. I always feel comfortable going out of town knowing the kitties are in great hands!”
“Abby did an amazing job with our boys while we were gone. She went above and beyond in all ways and gave great updates. One of our cats is normally very standoffish with new people and he took to Abby right away. She is absolutely the best and we 100% plan to book her again in the future.”
“Aly is great and very trustworthy! Meet and greet went great and she took care of my cat very well during a trip I had to take. Went above and beyond to try and get through very inclement weather to give my cat some medication as well. Very responsive and provided great updates. Could always rely on her! Definitely booking again!”
“Sydney was great! We booked last minute and were really relieved she was able to drop in on our kitties while we were away. She communicated well and made us feel like we didn’t have to worry. I realized I missed a few things in my instructions but she was able to roll with it and take care of everything. We really appreciated her help and would be happy to book with her again.”
Arcola cat parents share their Rover experiences
Amy took wonderful care of our two senior Siamese cats while we were away for a week. Caring for older cats requires patience, attention to detail, and a genuine love of animals, and Amy exceeded our expectations in every way. She reliably administered medication, carefully followed their routines, and made sure both cats were comfortable and well cared for. What truly set Amy apart was the time and attention she devoted to them beyond their basic needs. She played with them, spent quality time with them, and made the effort to build a bond with each cat, which meant so much to us. Amy also kept us updated throughout our trip, giving us peace of mind that our beloved pets were happy and in excellent hands. When we returned home, our cats were relaxed, content, and clearly had been given lots of attention and affection. We highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional pet sitter. We would gladly have her care for our cats again.
Emily was our first Rover that we used since we adopted our kitty. She was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. She sent very cute pictures of our kitty as well as followed all directions we gave while we were gone. We would definitely use her again in the future!
Nouf took great care of my senior dog and cat. She gave me peace of mind while my boyfriend and I were away. My cat ran out the door (because she’s crazy!) and she was able to quickly catch her and bring her back inside safely. Reliable, responsible, responsive, and gave detailed updates + lots of pictures! I would recommend her if you are looking for someone who can handle your furbabies!
Ali is amazing-she’s someone we can always count on to take great care of our kitties. She’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely kind with our pets. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands while we’re away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!
