“Mackenzie is the BEST — our rabbits are professional mess makers and we came back from our weekend away to a spotless bunny room & two very happy healthy bunnies! Thank you Mackenzie!”

“Lindsey was great! She was always right on time with checking in and very responsive. I got lots of photos which I loved and she was awesome with letting me know everything was good while we were away. She was easy to work with especially when our plans changed last minute. Most importantly we came home to a happy cat!! Thank you again!”
“Julia was absolutely fantastic! She took such great care of our pup. He’s a sensitive guy and has a reactive history. Her experience with fostering made me very comfortable with her taking care of him. She went above and beyond with making sure he’s well exercised and well loved. She updated me often and provided the cutest pictures! I am looking forward to booking her again soon!”

About: Hello, Nadine here. Looking forward to helping you and your pets needs. I am comfortable with all size dogs and look forward to meeting you soon. I am a dog mom, a full-time banker, and in my free time I enjoy long walks and everything and anything to do in nature. I am a proud owner of a miniature schnauzer, who is 15 years old. I am open to long walks, short walks. I understand work, life balance, and the stress of not getting home to our fur babies.
“Heather was great! She was super responsive and willing to communicate. She stuck to our kitten’s schedule just right and they were super content when we got back. Thank you Heather!”

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. I know the care that is required to keep them happy and healthy. I’ve also volunteered at a dog shelter. I’m currently a student at Johnson & Wales University and have classes from morning to early afternoon. I also work part-time at a coffee bar in Narragansett on Fridays and Saturdays in the morning. So I afternoon-evenings free all week. I have always had dogs and cats growing up and know what it means to properly take care of them. I also have volunteered at a dog shelter.
“Francis was great! Our 2 cats were happy and healthy when we got home after being gone for over a week. She was also great at responding to texts, and left our home pretty much exactly as we had left it. She is super sweet and will definitely recommend her to take care of your critters.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from about 12 years old. Neighbors, friends, family; I’ve been trusted to care for their furry family members for a while. Having my own dog and being surrounded by many furry friends, I have much experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule that varies throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate owners’ needs whenever possible. I prioritize communication and reliability, and I’ll always make sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I will follow all instructions regarding routines, feeding schedules, medications, and any special needs. I understand that every pet is different, and I strive to create a calm, positive, and trustworthy experience for both pets and their owners. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would my own.
“I felt very relieved knowing I could trust Savannah with my cats. She did a great job taking care of them. I received pictures and updates daily. I would recommend Savannah to anyone who has special fur babies. The next time I plan a vacation, Savannah will be one of the first people I'll call.”

“Super reliable and responsive. Goes above and beyond what’s expected during visits and spent extra time with my pet. She leaves very detailed report cards and lots of adorable photos. Follows instructions very well, will definitely book again”

About: My name is Sarah and I'm 33 years old. I took a little stint from Rover to focus on my professional career but I'm back and so excited to start petsitting again! Animals have been a huge part of my life ever since I was young. I worked at a vet throughout high school and even started my own dog sitting company in Charleston, SC upon graduation from Virginia Tech - safe to say, I've always been obsessed with animals. I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds and ages, including puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats, dogs those with disabilities, cats that require medication, etc. You name it, I've probably had to handle it in all my years of pet care. I love taking dogs on adventures - the beach, hiking trails, etc. I will treat your fur babies like my own and give them the exercise and TLC they deserve while you are away! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is pretty open (including weekends). I'm available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and doggy day care (this includes walks, feeding, TLC, medication administration, etc.). I also offer overnight care, whether that be in your home or mine (whatever you and your pet prefer). This is a service I'm currently offering to private clients but am starting to extend to Rover. In my client's homes, I always let them take the lead with their comfortability and with their pet's normal routine. I want to make sure your pet hardly notices you are gone and that they are 100% comfortable and happy with someone in their environment. Whether that means crating them, walking them at specific times, having designated playtime. Again, I let the client take the lead on instructing me in those cases. When I bring a pet into my home, it's important that they get along with cats, as I have two who are very friendly and don't interact too much with my/client's dogs. Currently my Husky is staying with my mom in Virginia, so he will not be in the apartment. I want my space to feel as "homey" to them as possible, so whatever is needed to make that happen, I accommodate.
About: What sets me apart is that I really take the time to get to know each dog and what makes them happiest. I’ve worked with everything from wiggly puppies who need a little help with training to older dogs who just want a slow, peaceful walk and some extra TLC. I’m super patient, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup wants to run, sniff, play, or just take it easy, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly. I have tons of free time, so your pet gets my full attention and flexibility. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a job it’s just a great part of my day. When I care for pets at your home, I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them. I stick to their usual feeding and walk times, give any meds they need, and just hang out to keep them company. I’m not perfect, but I’m always patient and caring, and I make sure to keep their space clean and safe. I’ll check in with you regularly so you know how they’re doing. If I’m watching pets at my place, I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax and plenty of attention. I’m pretty chill and try to keep things low-stress so they feel comfortable. Either way, I just want your pet to feel safe and cared for, even if I’m not perfect!
About: My name is Breanne! I own a hound/ GSD, two cats, and I am fostering a lab! I used Rover in a pinch one day so I know how important this job is and how much of a lifesaver it can be! I would love the opportunity to help someone else in a pinch and make a dog happy at the same time. I am very active, I run trails, walk, hike, I can take your dog to the park, hiking, whatever you need. I have experience with various harness tools, etc.. as my dog is a working dog and we are constantly training. I love spending time with pets in all settings and I’m happy to help in any way I can! I also volunteer at a rescue in my spare time and coordinate spay and neuter services. I currently telework three days a week and have the flexibility to increase this when necessary. I work Monday - Friday 8-3:30pm and can work from anywhere. I believe in maintaining a pets routine to the best of my ability. Having your best friend away can be stressful enough, I do my best to ease your pet’s discomfort as much as possible.
“Xavier is reliable punctual and fantastic as always. He is detailed oriented and follows instructions well. I will book him again and I would absolutely trust him with my dog. I'm glad that I can have someone as reliable as him with my dog. We have communications so you can rest easy leaving him with your fur babies.”


About: I have professional dog caring experience, I am certified in pet first aid, and I work for a pet service company. I have experience with big dogs and cats, and also will administering oral medications and insulin injections. I grew up with various pets, so I can handle different types of animals. I love animals, and I will be more than happy to take care of your fur baby. I work a full time job in the morning so I have time in the evenings and weekends for visits, cuddles, feedings and dog walking. I am very attentive when walking dogs and am careful about what they do on the walk. I also always double check that the pet has everything they need before I leave the visit.

About: As a pet owner myself, I value honest and reliable care, not only for owners, but the animals themselves. I have experience providing care for a diverse set of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals. I aim to build trust with those for whom I provide care. I am comfortable with administering medication and attending to specific needs. Most importantly, I treat others pets with the same love and attentiveness as I do my own. I work full-time during the week, though I have more flexibility on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I work from home. I am available for drop-in visits any day of the week. I work with my clients to meet their needs and go out of my way to do so. When providing care in an owner’s home, I aim to leave pets and the home in a state that the owner would be happy to return to. I respect the boundaries of owners and pets alike so that I can build a relationship of trust, communication, and reliability. I hope to show my dedication to proper pet care through my actions.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Barrington
Just got back today after Trey was looking after my cat for 3 days. Everything worked out swimmingly! I received daily check-in reports, the kitty seemed to accept him, and the more, ahem, sanitary chores were seen to. No doubt I'll use Trey's services again when I'm out of town.
