“Katie did a wonderful job cat-sitting for us. She is communicative and friendly and completely put our minds at ease that our cat was well cared for while we were out of town. We highly recommend her!”


“Jamie is amazing! She stayed at our house and watched our 3 dogs for 4 and a half days and 3 nights while we were out of town. It was the first time we have ever left them all overnight. We all loved her when we first met and besides missing them, I never once worried about whether or not they were being well taken care of while we were away. I left a lot of notes and instructions that I was worried might have been too much, but Jamie really appreciated it. She stayed in contact with us and sent pictures too. She took excellent care of our dogs and respected our home. We would definitely hire Jamie again! In fact, I am not sure if I would ever hire anyone else unless I absolutely had to. Thank you Jamie! 😃”


“I am so appreciative Jessica did a great job with our animals but especially my senior dog. He is a bit extra and she didn’t mind at all and helped keep his routine normal for me while I was gone. I recommend her and would definitely hire her again!”


“I went into a panic mode when we had a last minute trip come up and no one to watch our pups. Luckily someone told me about Rover and I ended up contacting Joseph. He came out so we could see how the dogs would react to him and we felt comfortable to have him take care of them. He messaged pictures and videos of our pups and made sure to let them play for a bit! I highly recommend having him watch your animals!”



About: I have taken care of dogs all my life! Gieuening love all animal as they were my own. Even the ones I see walking by! lol. Growing up we had 4 dogs (3 boxers and a pit mix) and a cat. One female boxer, Cookie♥️, had acouple litters which I learned how to take care of puppies, training, and eventually senior care. When I was younger I would show our dogs in 4H for obedience training. Currently work as a chemist from 9-5, and I’m looking for something fulfilling to do on the weekends. Petcare is an apart of my daily routine. Our pets are our babies♥️ My philosophy is to do good and do whatever I can to make animals happy and comfortable. Being constantly aware of your surroundings is very important, especially today’s world. Safety and the wellbeing of the pet is the up most priority.


“Kelli took great care of our babies! Thank you so much and going above and beyond with Harper and Lady, especially. I had a great piece of mind knowing she was taking care of them!!”


About: I am an operations manager and I work nights on the weekends! This makes my week very free and flexible. If you need your pet cared for on a day different than the availability I have listed, message me! I may be able to provide services on alternative days depending on the week. I have a dog, Rigatoni, and he loves to play with other dogs. I love to hang out around animals and I will give your pet all the love it needs while you are away! My schedule for my job is Saturday night-Tuesday morning. This means that I am very flexible during the week. As a rover user myself, I understand the importance of communicating while watching someone’s pet, and I am excited to spend time with more animals. My apartment complex has an expansive green space. I will be able to walk your pet around a pretty environment based on the amount you would typically have them outside and their normal activity level. I love being active, so your pet will return to you happy and healthy. In drop by visits, I am willing to stay as long as needed to ensure that your pet has time to play or just be around someone while you are away.

About: I had taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young. I have relied on me to walked, feed and bathe their pets. I had also trained 2 dogs with some of the sign language as well to teach the animals to sit and stay with the sign language. My friends and family have relied on me to take their dogs to the dog park, the beach and go on the morning hike. Just really take care of their animals with the love, respect and support for those need my help for them to enjoy their time or a getaway! I'm currently working from home on my own flexible schedule! I do have a lot of time in between working virtually and I can do my job anywhere! So if I take the dogs to the park or go on a walk, I could work on my phone to reply my emails, messages etc. I do have the good balance of taking a break from work to spend the time with the animals to give them my attention and cuddles and go on a walks or adventures! First thing first is to care the animals with respect, love and comfort to be in my home or in your home. At my house: I do have a fully fenced back yard and front yard with my two lovely dogs that will give your animals peace of mind and protection. In my house are full of cozy energy, your animal will love this place to run around and enjoying every moment to be here. I have a few bowls of water around my house, they will be hydrated while your animals are here. I don't share human food to the animals. They will always be fed with their own dog/cat food. It is the open space in my house so the animals will be seen in my full view at all times. They will be protected while they're here. I do have a doggie hole as well! The dogs can go outside at anytime with the backyard wood fenced around. If your cats aren't outdoors, that's okay because I do leave a baby gate to block the doggie door hole so the animals doesn't get out and I will take the dogs outside to my front yard that are fenced as well. At night time, I do put all of my cats in my bedroom with me while the door are shut so the dogs can go outside on their own while I am asleep until the morning time, I would block the doggie door with the baby gate and let the cats out my room. If your cat isn't outdoor cat then he/she//they can be with me in my bedroom with all of my cats or they can sleep with my little sister in another cozy room with the cat litter & food/water/toys. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well! Lots of pictures will be shared to the owners as well! The owner with the animal will need to meet me and my animals just to be sure to see how they interact and to see how you feel about your animals for being in my lovely home. If I was at your house, I am that person that will follow your wishes and expectations of how you would want me to care for your animals. I do clean up after myself when I am at your house and to keep it tidy clean as you like it to be. I also like to step outside with the dogs/cats to keep my eyes on them or even just being outside with them and play with their toys to give them my joyful attention. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well. I will always ask the owner before assuming or trying things out. I love to meet the animals before starting the whole process to feel it out how the energy goes for us and for your animals too. If it flows great with you, I and your animals then there will be lots of pictures will be shared to you as well!

About: Hi! I’m and I’m here to provide your pets with the best care possible while you’re away. As a passionate animal lover with 20+ years of experience, I understand that each pet has unique needs and routines, which is why I offer personalized, attentive care tailored to your pet’s specific personality and preferences. What sets me apart is my commitment to making sure your pet feels at ease and loved, just like they would at home. Whether it’s a daily walk, a cozy cuddle session, or sticking to their usual feeding schedule, I go the extra mile to keep them comfortable and happy. I believe in clear communication, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I’ll send updates and photos so you can relax, knowing they’re in good hands. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priority, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I do work full time, so week day availability is limited. I am willing to discuss week day care, please send me a message!! I have offered my weekends to be wide open and available for care. When I care for your pets in your home, I make sure to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable while you’re away. I understand that pets are happiest in their own space, which is why I focus on maintaining their daily routines as closely as possible. Here’s what you can expect: • Consistent Care: I stick to your pet’s usual feeding times, exercise schedule, and any special needs they may have. Whether it’s medication, specific dietary restrictions, or a favorite playtime activity, I’ll make sure everything stays on track. • Routine and Comfort: Pets thrive on routine, so I make sure they get the same attention and structure they’re used to. I also make your home a second “safe” place for them, keeping their familiar smells, sounds, and comfort items close by. • Regular Updates: You’ll receive daily check-ins with photos, videos, and updates so you can rest easy knowing how your pet is doing. I’m always happy to answer questions and keep you in the loop. • Home Care: In addition to caring for your pet, I also keep your home in top condition. I’ll handle light cleaning tasks like feeding dishes, cleaning up after walks, and making sure your space stays tidy. By staying at your home, I can help reduce any anxiety your pet might have from being in an unfamiliar place, while providing them with the love and attention they need. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities.

“I will always book Ally for all of my house sitting needs! She’s always on time, she takes pictures and sends me updates and keeps my house nice and tidy! She is fantastic with Lucy and you can tell she has a real connection with animals! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Anyone would be lucky to have Ally look after their pets!”


“Cera made this first time Rover user at ease. She scheduled a meet up with me and worked with my schedule. She also sent pictures during her stay which was very appreciated. Will book again!”


“Emily watched our dogs while we were away for a couple days. The dogs seemed fine when we arrived home and the house was well cared for.”


“This was my first experience with Rover. I have extreme anxiety about leaving my dog with ANYONE, much less a ‘stranger.’ Kat eased my worries from the very first conversation & offered to meet Luna and me at our convenience before her stay. I immediately felt better after we met and knew my girl would be in good and safe hands! Kat followed our instructions perfectly and clarified with questions when needed. She sent tons of photos and videos while we were on our trip, and she even took our girl on a fun walk at a nature trail! Our home was perfectly kept and respected. I was so relieved to have had such a great experience because I know not everyone has been so lucky. It can be hard to trust your baby with others, but I will continue to trust Kat with my dog when I need a sitter, and you should, too!”
