Kaitlen was fabulous. She helped us out during a sudden emergency need we had. She went above and beyond to help take care of our dogs, keep us updated, and communicate everything. Definitely book her if you need care for your animals!

About: Animals enjoy my dog and I's company. Come unsure, leave longing to return. A visit will sure turn into a playdate and lots of misses and kisses. Your pets will feel right at home because the pets here aren't pets; their family. Whether they become extended cousins, or like brother and sister, your pet will feel like home away from home with us! Your pet has plenty of space to run around and if they're up for it will do so on their walks. Each of us have our own personality and here theirs can shine, grow, and learn to be in and create harmony with the world around them.

About: Since I was a child I have had pets in my life. I am an animal lover of all types. I have cared for fish, hamsters, gerbals, cats, dogs, even reptiles. I have helped family and friends with there pets, and have a good sense of how to undertand whatvthey need. I can bath, groom, give haircuts, and feed them if and when needed. I am willing to open my home to assist families in need. I do have a full.time job, but also have family who are all wonderful and willing to help where it is needed. I am the main care taker, I make sure to work my schedule around the best interest of the pet I am caring for. Your pet will never truly be alone. I have a fenced in yard, I have a friendly chihuahua and a playful, lovable cat. I have a separate and clean space in my basement if needed giving plenty of room to run and play with plenty of toys for pets. Let me not forget my fun and loving family which includes my husband two teenage kids and my self.

About: Hi, I'm Julissa (joo-lee-sah)! I am 31 years old and have had pet dogs for my entire life. I used to volunteer at a shelter walking dogs and completed the orientation that went over recognizing animal body language. I am basically the designated pet sitter for my family and have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes (and some cats and small animals). Petsitting has become my main work at the moment, so I will be available as needed for any bookings to check in, play, feed, walk, and care for your pets. I regularly pet and house sit for friends and family and can adjust to the routines your pets are used to. I am always careful to follow any directions provided and make sure any gates, harnesses, leashes, etc. are secured. I do require meet & greets before confirming any bookings, not just to make sure your pets are fine with me, but so that pet owners and I can get a feel for each other as well and make sure we're all a good fit!

I was lucky to find this wonderful family right before heading out on vacation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. They were reliable and stuck to the agreed schedule, which I truly appreciated. My dog a 5 month old Standard Poodle who’s a giant ball of mischief connected with them right away. It’s clear they have tons of experience and, most importantly, a genuine love for animals. I had originally booked someone else who canceled last minute with a silly excuse… but honestly, I’m glad it happened because it led me to the right people. They deserve all the stars. Highly recommend!

Thanks so much to Charisma for stopping by to let Indigo out & feed him! My first time using the drop-in option on Rover. Great communication, quick replies, & she kept me updated on Indigo with pictures & followed up with me when she left! I will definitely be using her again in the future! 😊

Saktah is an amazing choice for anyone looking for pet care. She's incredibly timely with updates and great pictures to let you know your pets are safe and secure when you are away. We have one older cat with medication requirements and another with a special diet. Saktah took care of everything and then some! Her photos, videos and messages about your pets are second to none. Would use her again and recommend to anyone wanting the best for their pets. A++

About: Compassionate, reliable, and experienced pet lover who ensures safety, comfort, and joy for pets. Provides personalized care, detailed updates, and builds trust with owners. I’ve been pet sitting for 6 years both dogs and cats, in all different sizes. Working a flexible full time job at Allen University so I can adjust my schedule to you and your family’s needs. Will not be here for thanksgiving or Christmas. I prefer caretaking at a client’s home so the pet is more comfortable in their environment, and I can accommodate to their needs and yours. It also gives the opportunity to use their toys at home and keep them entertained.

Tori was the absolute best drop-in sitter we've had through Rover, and we are so sad she is moving. Tori was reliable and truly loved our dog like she was her own. She left detailed notes about how each visit went, including if she ate, drank water, or any odd behavior, and she always included LOTS of cute photos. I'm jealous of whomever gets to hire her next!

We previously used our neighbor for trips but would come home to very upset cats. We hired Adam for a week and could not have been more pleased. He was patient and attentive to our skittish kitties. We looked forward to our silly cat updates and pictures. Adam really but our minds and hearts at ease. He even won over our cats love and affection towards the end. Very exceptional care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a child. We had a family kitty and other family members had dogs. I have experience taking care of families and friends dogs and cats, whether that was staying at their house and following their routines, taking the dogs out for walks, or simply popping in for their meal time. I have a soft spot for cats, but I’ve never met a dog I didn’t love! I currently don’t have a full time job and am applying to graduate school, so I am available when you need me! I am flexible and can work my routine around your pets’ needs. If you need me to stay over in your home, I will be sure to follow every instruction given, and treat it with the utmost care and cleanliness. I am a guest in your home, and am more than willing to follow any guidelines set by you. My goal is to be seamless and incorporate myself into your pets’ routines, as well as keep your home safe and secure.

He is the best! Extremely dependable, diligent about following all directions and meeting needs of your animals. We have used him twice now and know our cats are in great hands! One warmed right up and met him every day with purrs and demands for brushing. The other was her usual, stand-offish self but still came out for a few sniffs and investigation. He respected their boundaries and gave them time to get to know him on their terms. He stays in great contact as well and we were very comfortable with him as a caretaker. We highly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. Thank you so much!!
