“Jen was very communicative. She also was very patient and kind after one of my dogs had an accident in the house. She went above and beyond to clean up and take care of him. She also provided bunch of updates and details so I knew what was going on. It was definitely a piece of mind, knowing that she was there taking care of everything.”

“Becky went above and beyond in taking care of our cats. She was incredibly communicative, quickly responded to our cats' many antics, and was attentive to every detail of their care. Because of her great sense of humor, we were excited every time a new Rover card was posted, where her love and care for our cats was apparent. It can be hard to leave your pets with a stranger, but we felt completely at ease knowing that Becky was taking care of them. We would recommend her to all pet parents looking for a reliable and conscientious sitter.”


“Lauren did a great job of feeding and cleaning up after the kitties who manage to spread their litter EVERYWHERE. it was nice coming back to clean Kitty dishes and cleaned up litter after time away. Loved the photos too”



“Thomas has stepped in to help me after my dog suffered a surprise bout of IVDD. When I come home my puppers seem happy and well cared just as if they had been with me all day. I appreciate Thomas's experience with senior dogs and bladder expression. That was really important to me in my search for support. You can't go wrong with this Rover, friends. 12 stars!”


“Jacob was great with Bean! He fed him his food, refilled the water and cleaned the bowls, and made the time to play lots with him. He also took plenty of photos! This was our first time going away and having a cat sitter, so we were a bit nervous, but the detailed notes and pictures definitely eased our nerves! Thanks Jacob <3”


“Melina was super awesome taking care of our little puppy! I appreciated her taking notes and asking us how we wanted her to take care of Mochi, our dog. Thank you, Melina! We would definitely ask her to come back and watch our dog!”


“Christine was amazing! Communication and updates were stellar, and she was super-helpful in our meet-and-greet explaining all the ins and outs of Rover. Thank you so much!!!”


“Jessica was communicative and friendly! I have one scaredy cat with special needs, & she handled him wonderfully. Both of my kitties were happy and well-taken care of while I was away. Knowing that Jessica was watching my pets helped me feel comfortable & relaxed. Will certainly book again!”


About: Friends and family call me their go-to dog walker and pet sitter, whether it be a quick walk down the block, or a 2-week overnight stay. My experience includes volunteering at the humane society, walking pups with harnesses or gentle leaders, administering oral medication, and training with lots of affection and treats! Usually, pet sitting happens in the pet’s home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I have cared for puppies, kittens, and senior pets - some with dementia 🙃. I have flexible availability during the weekdays when your pet needs some extra attention 😊. I’m hoping to build a consistent schedule with the same pets. Generally, pet sitting includes feeding, walking, pet cleanup, play time and chill time. I feel most pets like routine and stability, so it’s beneficial to see what the pet’s typical daily schedule looks like.

“Hannah is legitimately a dog whisperer. My pitbull is fearful and reactive toward people, but within a few minutes of their first meeting, Hannah had Maisie taking treats from her hand and playing fetch. Once she started playing fetch with Maisie, my dog completely ignored me and kept bringing the ball back to Hannah instead of me. Maisie has never done that with other people. I've had Hannah come to the house 3x and it's been great every time. Maisie loves her. Hannah is really easy to communicate with, is always on time and has great ideas about how to work with my dogs. I trust her and her instincts completely.”


About: I have experience caring for furry dog friends. I'm comfortable with walking, feeding, giving medication, and providing attention and playtime. Whether your dog is energetic or laid-back, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Hi, my name is G'la! I'm excited to meet new pets and provide them with loving, reliable care. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or just keeping a furry friend company, I truly enjoy making pets a natural and joyful part of my daily routine. I adjust my care based on each pet’s routine and personality. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their familiar space—feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, medication, and plenty of companionship. I also make sure the home stays clean, safe, and secure. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, enrichment, and supervision. I keep to their feeding and exercise schedule and give them lots of affection and attention to help them feel at ease while they're away from home.

“Qishu was great! She helped us out last minute on walk/feeding our two pups. She sent lots of great pics and we could tell they were well taken care of even though we’ve never before had a walker come that we hadn’t met prior.”


“Cynthia did two drop visits in one day with my sweet Edwyn pup. She kept me updated each step of the way and left my keys in the proper spot. I especially appreciated her photos and walk summaries. Thank you, Cynthia!”


“Cindy and Cesar are awesome. They are very responsive and have been very kind and understanding of our 2 cats. Our cats were adopted as adults and have been through a lot before coming to our home. They have some odd behavior as a result but Cindy and Cesar are in phased by that. I highly recommend them!”


“Neia did a terrific job of caring for our dog and cat, on short notice when we had to leave town for a family emergency. Everything went very smoothly and she communicated with us regularly. A huge relief and I hope to contact her again.”


About: Here for cat care! I have been a cat lover and cat care provider for the past 10 years. I have two cats of my own, so understand the importance of trusted pet care when traveling. have fostered cats and Right now I work as a mental health therapist which means that my schedule is flexible. I work from home meaning that I can be available for visits during the day if needed. Mondays I dedicate solely to pet care. I have two cats of my own in my home meaning that I don't offer boarding services. In my client's home I offer pet care catered to each person and pet's needs.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience, and currently have four amazing dogs. Caring for pups has always been second nature to me, and I treat every dog I meet like family. I have personal experience with anxious dogs who need extra love, patience, and reassurance. I understand how important it is to create a calm, gentle environment and to move at their pace. I’ve also been lucky to care for a senior dog who’s now 16 years old, so I’m very familiar with the special attention older pets need like mobility support. I provide a safe, peaceful, and loving presence so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. I currently work part-time as a nanny, which gives me the flexibility and availability to spend my extra time to care for and walk dogs! Whether it’s a quick walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting, I’m happy to provide consistent, loving care when you can’t be there. I believe pets feel most relaxed in familiar surroundings, so I’m happy to come to you and keep your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible.

“Ammy was wonderful with our two kitties and followed all our instructions as stated. Both of our cats also were very comfortable with her, including the one who is a bit shy around new people–he warmed up to her immediately! We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future”
