“We had the absolute best experience with Viridianne looking after our cat while we were away for an extended period of time. Communication was above and beyond, which made us feel so comfortable being away from our cat. She’s dependable and obviously loves animals! We will definitely ask for her services in the future when we are away ☺️”

“Nicole was fantastic. She took care of our female Great Pyr wonderfully and we could tell how happy she was when we returned home after four days. Nicole is excellent at communicating and very joyful to interact with. We will be booking Nicole again in the near future.”
“We were Noah’s first official clients on Rover, decided to take a chance with him since he lived closer to our home than other sitters. Overall, Noah was great! He took care of our three dogs and two cats. Dogs seemed to love him and one of our cats was sitting on his lap day one. Our second cat is very skittish and he made sure to keep an eye out for her (she loves to hide from strangers) and kept us updated on when he saw her sneaking around. Her kept the house clean and well-maintained. Messaged us immediately with any concerns about the home, and we were able to fix any problems quickly. Overall Noah seemed like a calm, quiet, and responsible man. We’d be happy to have him watch our home and pets in the future”
About: I have always had a love for animals. I worked in the veterinary field for about 10 years. I have owned animals of my own since I was a small child. I aspire one day to become a certified dog trainer. I have pet sit everything from cats and dogs to goats and sheep. I do work full time but my father lets the dogs out at lunch time. I’m home by 5:30 so if it’s at my house it will be able to play from when I get home until the next morning. If the pet is not staying with me I will go before and after work and stay over if need be. My pets are extremely well cared for. Up to date on all vaccinations and flea medications. They all get plenty of exercise and have free range of the house when someone is home. They sleep in bed with me at night. I have a large fenced in yard for them to play. They are crated when someone is not home for their safety and to keep them out of trouble.

The addition of caring for pets on Rover is very rewarding! I have weekday, weekend, and holiday availability. I make sure every need is met and follow pet owner’s instructions. I find it important to make sure pets feel loved and entertained while you’re away!

About: I've had dogs ever since I was little. I have an explosive detection dog, and have experience working dogs. I love all dogs and am looking to get more hands on experience. I am currently just got out of the police academy and am going to be going on FTO. Once there I will be working four on four off, but as of right now I work all week from eight to five. All of my dogs are crate trained and for the most part dog neutral, but I tend to keep them separate for work. They do love playing with each other though.
About: Hello! I have been taking care of pets, my own, for 17 years. I grew up with cats that were my responsibility, and am now a dog owner. I have fostered puppies and currently care for a (near) senior dog. I am pretty flexible with my schedule, and with advanced notice, I can usually meet most requests made. I do take time to travel with my dog on weekends, so I may not be available for weekend boarding. I have a room dedicated as a dog space in my home, and I have the ability to crate dogs as needed. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a tie out cord and leash for dogs that need more attention outdoors.
About: I have been a dog owner for as long as I can remember and a cat owner since 2008. I strive to care for any pet just like they were my own. I plan to utilize all of my pet care giving knowledge to ensure that each pet under my care receives the best of my services. If one has a pet that has special needs, such as deafness, then I have experience with caring for special needs pets. I also cared for uncommon pets, such as snakes and cockatiels, and am willing to house sit or pet sit for anyone who are owners of these types of pets. In regards to house sitting, I will be sure to keep each room clean and organized and care for any pets in the house. I work as a dog groomer Tuesday through Saturday, but I am able to take Hamilton with me to work. On the days I'm off, Hamilton and I play fetch, tug, and watch TV. I have a spare crate for any dog to be boarded at my place, and Hamilton loves to play with any dog, cat, or person.

Aryana S.
“Aryana is a huge dog lover. She’s grown up with her own dogs who she loved for and took care of fully by herself. If I had to trust one person with my animal it would be Aryana. She is one of those people who you watch them with animals and you’re just amazed at the instant connection and respect they give to her. Aryana is not only sweet to animals but she’s a very kind, compassionate and loving girl to everyone she knows.”
