“Lauren was beyond amazing. Minutes before we were able to leave for a long weekend trip, a bird managed to fly in our house. We weren't sure if it even got in and searched the house for it, but couldn't find it I messaged Lauren right away to let her know. Instead of cancelling, she laughed it off. We saw nothing for the first day, but she did end up finding it on day 2. And like a Disney princess, Lauren even managed to safely get the bird back outside!! She took such good care of our old man. I would absolutely work with Lauren again in a heart beat. Please book with her!”
“Tami was always right on time. All of my animals were comfortable with her. She did a great job with all of them. This was the first time we have left our fur babies with someone they didn't already know. We were nervous but now we are at ease as long as Tami is available.”
“Jackie takes care of our little guy as if he were her own. He is so comfortable with her! Jackie learned our dog's routine, then, during each of her visits, took care of his basic needs and exercise and provided some wonderful social and play time for him. She went above and beyond in every way. The scheduling is smooth, the communication back and forth was easy and she is super reliable. We can't recommend Jacke more highly. Jackie will be our first stop for all future dog-sitting needs!”
“Kaylan was awesome to work with! She did a great job caring for our 2 Yorkies, and we were able to get away for a weekend event with complete peace of mind, knowing our dogs were in terrific hands. Responsive and reliable. A great experience!”
“Stephanie was amazing! I was worried because this was my first time using Rover and going on a longer trip, but she kept me updated and sent photos daily. Even on days I couldn't respond during the wedding, she still made sure I was in the loop! She was flexible to work with and made the kitties felt loved. They were doing great when I got back, food was full, water was clean, and litter was doing good as well. I would definitely rebook her for other trips too!”
“Brandi is amazing cat sitter, our cats love her. When we came back after long trip, I feel like both of my cats didn’t feel we were gone at all. Thanks to her again. Definitely ask her to check our cats again in the future.”
“You can tell Elizabeth really loves animals and it seems they love her back. Our cats generally hide when people come into our home but she was able to capture pictures of them each day she took care of them. She a great job!”
About: I’ve handled pets for 10 years with compassion, warmth, and love like they’re my own. Friends and family have relied on me plenty of times to take care of their fur babies; whether it be a walk, a quick check-in, or sitting for a night. My personality adds comfort and ease to any family. I currently work remote full-time Monday-Friday 7am-3pm, so any needs after 3pm, I am your caregiver! If a quick visit is needed on a lunch hour, that is always no problem as well. I am free all day most weekends for any pet needs, including boarding or sitting. I live in an apartment complex that is pet friendly. We have a brand new, fenced-in dog park. There is a huge unfenced yard where dogs can be taken out on a leash. My apartment can accommodate most things such as a crate, toys, food, and other animal necessities.
“So far, using Rover has been a very positive experience! Claire is AwEsOmE and Romi really seems to like her a lot! Even our cat, Nemesis (Nemi) is staring to warm up to Claire’s visits. I’m sure she will soon be coming out for some petting. Maybe even before August comes to a close!”
“Kam did a great job checking in on our cat over the Thanksgiving holiday. She responded to our request for a cat sitter very quickly. We loved that she spent time with our cat — that made us feel much better that we had chosen the right person to take care of him. When we need a cat sitter, we will be contacting Kam again!”
“I enjoy having Suzanne care for my cat. She wanted to learn my processes and she did an exceptional job caring for my cat. I could be at ease and focus on work while my cat was cared for.”
About: Hi there! Animals are my true love. I’ve had animals my entire life. My rescue animals taught me how to be a mom and have changed my life. I have two cattle dog mixed breeds and two domestic cats. Previously, I worked for Central Bark as a dog handler and weekend caretaker. I previously had a dog with diabetes and am experienced with administering injection and oral medications. I like to stay healthy and fit. Let me be your dog’s work out buddy! When I’m not adventuring with my fur babies/sons, I’m working fully remote for a law firm. Since I work from home, I have flexibility to offer morning/lunch/evening walks or drop-ins. Your dog/cats will be greeted with a warm, friendly voice and lots of cuddles. After the meet n greet we get to business with the walk followed by some play and more cuddles.

I am currently working full time but looking a part time work to pay off a few bills and save up for a family vacation. I have a fenced in yard and my dog is very friendly.

Crystal S.

Crystal has helped me with walks during mornings and afternoons, she is also great in the winter season, as I am not a fan of walking my dogs in the cold. She is also very good with continuing the dog trainging that anyone has paid for their pet, as she has dogs of her own. I recently made the decision to take my dogs out of doggy day care and utilize Crystal 2x per day to help with the excercie that my dogs need. Vacations too, Crystal is always there when my dogs need her! Crystal is prompt, and very reliable and has a passionate love for dogs, which makes her a fantastic option to care for anyone's pets.”
Amanda T.
“Amanda has had many animals of her own, including dogs, cats, and chickens. She is the go-to friend you ask when you need help with your pet when you go out of town. She will care for your animal like it is her own. She cared for our dog when we went on vacation, and I felt assured she would take great care of her while we were gone for the week. She has cared for our dog, our friends' dogs, and many of her family members' pets. She is responsible and cares for them with love. For our next trip, I will be asking her again! I would highly recommend Amanda!”
Lauren B.
“Lauren has a huge passion for all animals and pets. She takes good care of all dogs and cats. I’m sure with any other animals she would be the best in.”
