“Micki instantly won my cats' trust and affection when they first met and I knew they would be in good hands. She provided notes and photos with each visit which I looked forward to every day. Micki was on time for her visits and responded promptly to messages. She handled everything beautifully and I think my cats would love to see her again! This was my first time hiring a sitter and I was very pleased with the service.”
“Holly clearly loves animals and was so good with my kitten! She shared pictures of him playing and getting a snuggle. I was very comfortable having her care for my fur baby 🥰”
“Jordan was amazing! Our cat was clearly very well attended to, and it showed. Never before have we gone on a trip and NOT been violently accosted upon entering our home. Ginger is usually not satisfied until she has drawn my blood, and she is instead purring and headbutting me lovingly. Only affection from this fuzzy demon, which means she was well looked after.”
About: I have loved animals like family as long as I can remember. And feel I have a special connection with them and them with me because of my calm and centered energy. Animals communicate and respond through peoples energy and I feel its how they know to feel safe. I care for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, lizards etc. And am happy to answer any questions on all. I work for myself so I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate most schedule needs of pet parents. I typically make morning and evening rounds and unless I am out of town I am available 7 days a week. I take pride in my attention to detail and upon first introduction I try and get as much information as possible about a clients home and needs pertaining to their pets and what they are used to so that I can do my best to maintain that schedule and activity.
“Amanda was SO great! She took great care of our kitties while we were on vacation. It was nice knowing our cats were looked after even without us there. Highly recommend Amanda for your pet sitting needs!”
“Betsy was great! My kitty isn’t very friendly but doesn’t seem scared of Betsy at all, so that is really comforting. She is very responsive and sent a picture. Next time we are out of town we will definitely be using Betsy to check on our kitty!”
“Sabrina is responsible, on-time, communicative, and enthusiastic! We felt very comfortable with her coming into the house and taking our dog out in the afternoons. We received cute pictures and updates. We will definitely book Sabrina again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the last 8 years. I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs. I love being outside and taking my dogs on walks. I also have experience with cats and sitting. I also have spent a couple years volunteering at a dog shelter and love to spend my time around furry friends! I'm currently a student, but I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have lots of time to play with your pets! I'm everyday of the week! When in California I have a fenced yard and three very friendly dogs your dogs can play with! When in Arizona, I house sit, walking, and take care of pets!
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for the past 15 years. I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I also have experience with horses. I am currently working Monday through Thursday. I am available Friday, Saturday and Sundays during the day. I may also have some evening availability depending on my schedule. At this time, I am unable to accept pets in my home. However, I am available to come to your house and take care of your pet.
“Laura was fantastic. She spent time getting Tigerlilly, who isn't used to strangers, comfortable. It was our first time leaving the cats for more than 12 hours so we really enjoyed seeing photos of the cats. Laura also noticed that the litter needed to be totally changed and undertook doing that, which we really appreciate. We highly recommend Laura as a pet sitter, she is a lovely person!”
“Michael was fantastic. He gave us regular updates and went above and beyond with providing care to our cats. We would love to work with him again in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was about 11, so 7 years or so. I am very comfortable with both big and little animals, ranging from hamsters to horses. I have experience with senior animals, big dogs, horses, chickens, pigs, cats, and more. I am currently attending the SRJC, but only have online classes as of now so my schedule is very open to fit your needs. I like any excuse to get some exercise so I'd be more than happy to fit in a few walks a day with your pets, as well as house sitting, boarding, and drop ins. I am very flexible on pay, please just let me know what you need from me and what you're able to pay, I will take pretty much any job. I have a large open yard that is fenced in the front, but has a small (very shallow; no risk of drowning) creek running along the back, providing a natural sort of fence with nothing but a field behind it. I have one dog that is very friendly and easygoing, as well as some cats around the property that sometimes come inside but don't care much for dogs.
“Kaitlin did an amazing job! Her communication was exceptional. Her care of my pets was OUTSTANDING. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her in the future.”
About: I have loved animals since I was a little kid, and I grew up surrounded by animals including a cat, two dogs, and a rabbit. As a teen, I was also a junior zookeeper for several years at my local wildlife refuge, helping to care for animals that couldn’t be released into the wild and also educating visitors on the importance of these animals and their natural habitats. For the last 10 years, I have had the pleasure of being the guardian of a sassy little tabby named Moon. I have also had the pleasure to housesit for some other furry friends when their humans were out of town. Currently have a pretty flexible schedule as long as I know a few days in advance what’s up 😊 Which is why I unfortunately can’t take same day bookings. I am committed to making sure that your furry family members are safe and well cared for while they are with me. Please communicate any known issues to me (things your pet likes to chew that they shouldn’t, medications they take, behavior issues, for instance) and in turn I will do my absolute best to keep them safe and report any possible issues immediately.
“Casey checked in on our old grumpy kitty while we were out of town. She was very patient with her and we came home to a happy well fed kitty and a clean house. I really appreciated the daily rover cards and pictures :) We will definitely book her again!!”
Barlow cat parents share their Rover experiences
Elika was perfect for our Puma! She checked in with me every visit with details of Puma's feeding, water and pee and pooh activity. Elika was responsible, respectful and cautious in our home. We arrived home to our well cared for pet, that was happy to see us! When we need a sitter for Puma, Elika is the sitter for us!! Thanks again for your service, Jill
Mary was efficient, through and reliable in her drop-in visits. She engaged with my shy boys and with the more friendly female. I found the kitchen area clean because she rinsed the cat dishes as they were used. I heartily recommend Mary for sitting with your pets!
