Whitney was outstanding, this was my first time using rover and I was so nervous leaving my two cats and dog but all that was put to rest! She was amazing, very communicative through the app always knew what was going on, never had to ask once. Went above and beyond, our dog had accidents that wasn’t on his piddle pad and cleaned up and swiffered our floor for us! I highly recommend Whitney!

Mary took care of my dogs while my husband was away, and I was at work, and I couldn't be happier with her service. She walked and played with them daily, ensuring they were well taken care of. My pups absolutely loved her! Mary was always punctual and provided fantastic photos and videos, keeping me updated throughout the week. We will definitely reach out to her for any future pet care needs! We would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Lisa took great care of my girls despite even having a death in her family. She is very kind. We had an issue with the billing and she worked that out with Rover quickly. Highly recommend.

About: I gained valuable experience working with sled dogs in Alaska, building patience, discipline, and confidence in handling high-energy dogs and maintaining consistent care routines. As a full-time student with a flexible schedule, I have consistent daily availability for drop-ins and walks, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the week. I will carefully follow all instructions, maintain routines, keep the home clean, provide attention and playtime, and send updates to ensure pets feel comfortable and owners reassured.

About: I have a year of hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. From energetic pups who love long walks to calm cats who need gentle attention, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for just like they’re my own. What sets me apart is my genuine patience, attention to detail, and ability to form real connections with pets. I take the time to learn each animal’s routines, quirks, and comfort zones, ensuring a stress free experience for both you and your furry friend. I’m currently a high school senior, and I have half days every other day which gives me plenty of time during the week to care for your pets! I’m also available on weekends for drop-ins, playtime, and cuddles. I work part-time at Chick-fil-A, but I’m flexible and happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Whether it’s regular visits or last-minute care, I’ll do my best to make sure your pet is comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. I make sure every environment is calm, secure, and suited to your pet’s personality whether they’re shy and independent or full of playful energy. I carefully follow all care instructions, from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and walking routes. I also double check that doors, leashes, and gates are secure before leaving, ensuring your pet stays safe at all times. You can trust me to treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I give my own. I take my responsibility seriously and work to create a positive, loving, and stress free experience for every animal I look after.

Sami did a great job caring for our two cats while we were gone for a week. She kept in frequent communication with me (which I really appreciated cause I can be kind of needy, lol), and the cats were happy when we got home. She got our mail too! Thanks, Sami!

About: i've always had dogs in the house. I've always had at least 3 dogs in my house at a time, growing up my best memories were going on hikes with all my dogs. I've always been running and playing with dogs. I'm currently working at Liberty on the Lake. I have my availability set to 4pm to close there though i do work morning and/or night shift on weekends. in my free time i walk my dogs and take my one energetic dog on a run. I am able to take any specifically energetic dogs on runs! I just love animals and it would be a cool experience to hang out with them. I walk in the house and see if a dog comes up to me, if not i call the name of the dog. I take the dog out to go potty and for a walk. If needed i'll feed the dog.

About: I have experience working in animal rescue, fostering, basic training, and complex medical maintenance for both dogs and cats. I have fostered over 100 dogs in ten years and owned two heart dogs and three beloved cats, all who had complicated medical conditions that required daily management. Pets are family to me and deserve the best care and consideration. I am currently on sabbatical and looking to fill my days with happy time with pets though walks, play, and just quality time. I’m available every day 11 am to 6 pm. Two days notice is required for both dog walking or dog check-in requests. I have a fenced in back yard and crates, along with dog safe toys, doggy gates, and non slip mats throughout the house for better traction for older dogs.

I was incredibly anxious about using Rover for the first time. I had to be away all day on June 9th to work as a precinct clerk, and because my dad—who usually helped me with the dogs—passed away in March, I was extra stressed about leaving them. Whitney absolutely exceeded my expectations and put all my worries to rest! She went above and beyond from the very start, coming by a couple of days before her visit to meet Emma, Junior, and Target, and to get the lay of the land. Her communication was amazing, and I loved getting the photos she sent of each of my dogs throughout the day. They clearly liked her a lot! She is also incredibly adaptable. At one point, I forgot to check my phone to open the garage door for her, but Whitney just rolled with it. Using the backup tools she was given, she figured it out and still got in to let the dogs out for their final visit of the day without a hitch. I was extremely pleased with her services. I only wish I could hire her every single day for a mid-day playtime outside! I will most definitely use her again if she is available, and I recommend her 100%. Thank you, Whitney, for doing such a wonderful job!

This is the second time I’ve used Cara’s services and I am once again very happy. Her reports are very detailed and it makes for stress free trip since I’m not worrying about my animals. Cara has gone above and beyond yet again. I will be booking with her again!

Sadie has been taking care of our 3 babies for several years now. We recover the moon happy with her and how she loves the tribe, and they love Sadie as well. When she stops in to pick up the key they come running to greet her and give love. She is a true gem. Five Stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amanda has given my family a true sense of peace while on holiday with the daily pictures and the videos of our tails. Nothing is worse than feeling like brought are leaving a family member with a stranger but with Amanda on our initial meet she felt like a family member. So thank you Amanda for all the love shown to Romeo while we were traveling. You went above and beyond what our expectations were just know if youbare available you will be the family member we call.
