“Hello Rover,, I'm new to the area and just moved into my house a month ago. Needing a cat sitter, my daughter told me to look on Rover. When i first logged on to your site, I saw Jennie's kind smile and that she was close by. So I figured it would be a win win. Boy, did I get way more than I bargained for!! I don't even know where to begin to express my gratitude and appreciation for Jennie! First, I'd like to thank her for taking care of my cat under more than extreme circumstances! I never thought I could ever get such impeccable service. The story has a twist and becomes even more extraordinary. On my recent trip, on the third day I left the country. Something told me to message Jennie and let her know I could only receive messages from messenger. As I did, I asked if everything was OK. She responded "your cat is ok". This is what followed. Evidently some sort of "Super Cell" developed and decided to dump approximately 6 inches of rain in 45 minutes on my house! Jennie saw how bad the sky looked over my way and decided to make the trip over. What normally is a 5 minute ride turned into 20 due to the rain coming down so hard she couldn't see the road. Upon her arrival, the water was 6 to 8 inches above the threshold, so she didn't want to open the door. She left and came back later to find my downstairs flooded! The water had started to receed and little Miss Wonder Woman jumped into action and advised me step by step as I, near hysteria, hung on her every message, knowing I couldn't get back til Monday (this happened Friday evening !) She moved furniture and pulled out rugs as her daughter and cousin swept the water to the street. She secured my cat in the upstairs and did her best to calm her. Jennie went out and rented a rug cleaner and cleaned my large area rug ( just a cat sitter?! Whatever!!). She turned on fans and cleaned everything she could!! Not once did I ask her to do anything --- she just took care of everything. When I asked her why she did it, her response was, "That's how I was raised, you help people". At that moment I could have kissed her parents on the mouth! My cat is now healed from the trauma, still skittish, but that's to be expected. The house is getting back together, but it would have been a total loss without Jennie's help. Thank you Jennie for working so hard for 3 straight days and restoring my faith in humans , there's still good ones out there! ❤ Rover, you just don't know what you have! Sincerely, Donna Matteson”

“Reagan was wonderful couldn’t have asked for anyone nicer. We will definitely be using her in the future. She was able to take care of both of my cats one having to have medication every day. She did a great job.”

About: Experienced, dependable, and trustworthy pet lover providing gentle, attentive care. Comfortable with puppies, seniors and shy pets. I focus on safety, routine, and giving each animal genuine affection. I have an open, adjustable schedule since I don’t work a typical 9–5. I’m active, at the gym daily, and can easily fit care around my daughter’s activities. I treat every pet like my own—safe walks, clean spaces, and consistent routines. In clients’ homes, I follow their rules, give lots of attention, and make sure pets always feel comfortable and secure.

About: Since I was a small girl Ive owned and cared for a range of animals, having three dogs a majority of my life along with other critters. I currently own exotic pets but have a long history with rescue animals! I currently am a part time employee at a medical office and college med student. With summer around the corner my day to day life slows down and I have more time to give back to the community I love! I currently am not allowed animals in my home due to my lease but I am more than willing to travel the distance for your pets needs!
“Trish is a very rare pet sitter, someone who has a passion for animals. She actually cares about the pets she is responsible for. She dedicates time to find all of our cats, who hide very well I might add. She brings toys for them, she brushes them, she loves on them. Our cats almost hate for us to return from vacation as they miss Trish! Her communication with us is amazing. She is very responsible! We would never trust anyone else but Trish with our pets!”

About: My lifelong, hands-on experience caring for animals of many kinds. I bred our family poodle, assisted during the birth of her puppies, helped raise them, and placed them in loving homes with family friends. Over the years, I’ve cared for guinea pigs, fish, sugar gliders, cats, and dogs of many breeds and sizes. I’ve even rescued baby birds and provided around-the-clock care until they were healthy enough to be released back into the wild. I’ve also helped several family members teach their dogs important skills, including potty training and coming when called. I had a dog by my side for most of my life until my beloved fur baby recently passed away. While I’m not ready to adopt another pet, I would love to responsibly fill that space in my heart by providing dependable, attentive, and loving care to other people’s pets. I currently work at my part-time job two days a week. Outside of that schedule, I’m very flexible and can easily adjust my availability to meet each pet parent’s needs. I’m always happy to have a conversation about your pet's specific routine and schedule so we can create a care plan that works well for everyone. I do not currently have any pets in my home, which means your pet will be my priority and receive plenty of individual attention. Although I do not have a fenced-in backyard, dogs will receive multiple leashed walks throughout the day, and there is also have a dog park in my neighborhood that can be used with your permission. For cats, I can provide litter boxes and a peaceful environment where they can settle in comfortably. My home is clean, organized, and pet-proofed. I do not have children in the home, and potentially unsafe items are kept neatly put away. Pets are welcome on my furniture because I believe they are family—while they’re staying with me, my home is their home.
“At the very last minute, our hotel—which had a pet-friendly policy—changed its rules to "dogs only." With just one day left before our vacation, we had no one to look after our one-year-old cat. After searching on the app, we found Damaris, and she agreed to take care of Zelda. Honestly, my husband and I are absolutely delighted with the service; she took excellent care of her, sent us photos, and kept us updated on everything. I know how strange it can feel to let a stranger into your home, but we had such a positive experience with her that we recommend her 100%.”

“I am absolutely happy with Leah and how well she took care of my babies. She played with them ,fed them and spent time with them. You can see that they were happy when we came home. We are definitely going to use her again when we go on another trip!!”

“We were just gone overnight but had Jennifer come out to check lady! She sent us photos of each of her visit and even left a report card!! Thought that was such a personal thing to do! Looking forward in leaving lady with Jennifer in the near future. Now just need to convince the hubby to go somewhere lol.”

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
