“Alexandra is a dream to work with. She is responsive, timely, adaptable, and above all great with pets! We are so happy to have had her help in caring for our kitty. Would absolutely use her services again as well as highly recommend her to others.”


“Rebecca was fantastic! Every day she sent little stories about how our cats were doing, what they were up to, etc. She also sent _plenty_ of pictures! When we were on a trip one of the daily highlights was seeing the updates from Rebecca. :)”


“Lavinia was so great! She took such good care of my dog and cat while I was out of town for a week. Was super communicative and sent lots of updates! Also went above and beyond and took care of a plant my cat knocked over as well as dealt with my apartment when the water was out. So great and will definitely rebook!”


“Sophie is absolutely amazing! Definitely one of (if not the) best Rover sitters that we’ve had! She met with us beforehand to review everything, and kept in constant communication throughout the time we were away. Our cat was obsessed with Sophie from the meet and greet, and we could tell from the updates we received she remained throughly happy ☺️ We will absolutely be booking with her again!”


“Veronica was very kind to stop by each day I was on my honeymoon to watch my cats, even though it was last minute. She even brought some packages in for me and moved a plant.”



“Rachel was awesome taking care of our 3 cats. She communicated quickly and clearly after each visit and sent high quality photos of all the cats. We felt that they were in good hand and would definitely call her again!”


“Emalee was awesome. Had to cancel the first sitting due to unavoidable circumstance. She was very accommodating for a future date. She made the scheduled drop in visits and I trusted her implicitly. Would definitely use her again.”


“I am so grateful for Caroline’s exceptional care of my cat during the days I was away for a second time since my last bookings! She went above and beyond to ensure he was well-fed, happy, and comfortable. Not only did she make sure he took his pills without a hitch, but she also spent quality time playing with him, which I really appreciated. Her communication was fantastic, and I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a responsible and loving sitter. Thank you, Caroline!”


“Ona did a great job! She easily followed my complicated instructions ;) She sent an informative update and cute pics from each visit. My kitty loved her. Would definitely hire her again, except I'm moving out of state.”


“Heather has been so helpful checking up on our pups while we’re at work! It’s clear they are super comfortable with her and she always sends cute photos of their time together!”

“Isabella could have a career as a pet photographer as she always sends beautiful photos while I am away from home. She gets my male cat to pose as if he's going on the cover of GQ Cat magazine and even takes good photos of my people shy cat who likes to hide!”


“Daniel is really helpful and accommodating for my cat who generally dislikes most people. I’m grateful to know he’s checking in our her and making sure she gets her daily medication. Thanks, Daniel!!”


About: I have been caring for family, friends, and friend of friend’s pets for the past 5 years and I have a kitty of my own named Rue. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, and I am comfortable around all dog breeds. I am currently offering drop-in visits and house sitting for cats and dogs, and dog walks (I love a long walk with a pup!). I work 8-3:30 Monday through Friday as a speech-language pathologist. Communication is my jam so you can expect updates and photos of your pet while they’re being cared for. With my weekday schedule, I can provide walks at around 7am, 4:30pm, and 9pm (or as needed). On the weekends, walk times can be more flexible. I would like to follow any training rules/routines that you use with your dog to ensure consistency. I am also happy to water plants (as a fellow houseplant parent myself) and feed other pets including fish and rodents.

About: I've been taking care of our furry friends since childhood, but over the last year I've really had to step up in caring for and training my parents' two German Shepard puppies, as well as one older Shepard following knee surgery. I've also started doing a significant amount of pet sitting with other breeds of dogs, from Chihuahua to Pitts, as well as kittie-cats both friendly and independent. I'm picking up some extra work while attending grad school, so my schedule is currently quite flexible. The time that works for you works for me! Generally, I'll follow all of your normal routines with your pet. Administering meds is also no problem, and grooming can be discussed for longer-term stays.

Recently my fur baby had ACL surgery and needed extra attention. Amber followed all instructions regarding his care meticulously and made sure to minimize any risks to his recovery. I would 100% trust her as a caregiver.”


Kaitlin R.
“Kaitlin is an absolute dream pet sitter and home sitter. Kaitlin stayed in my home to watch my dog, Niko, for 4 weeks while I was overseas. Niko is very anxious/reactive and needs to take daily medication. I was anxious myself to leave Niko for so long, but I could not have made a better choice than leaving him with Kaitlin and was blown away by the service she provided. Kaitlin sent me daily updates on how Niko was doing, including photos, and it was amazing how quickly he warmed up to her. Typically when I have to travel, Niko barely leaves his crate to eat. In the photos Kaitlin sent Niko would be begging for pets, cuddling with her in blankets, and rolling over for belly rubs. It was hard for me to be away for so long, but seeing the great care Kaitlin was taking of Niko, and how much he was opening up to her, really made the distance easier. On top of being loving, Kaitlin was also very responsible. She gave Niko his medication at the correct time every day without issue. She also managed to get him strapped into his carseat and take him to the groomer for a nail trim, something I was very worried would not be possible without me present. I left cash for the nail trim appointment and Kaitlin left the change down to the penny. Though there to watch Niko, Kaitlin went above ans beyond to care for our home. I came home to all mail and packages neatly stacked and sorted on the table. There were a couple urgent pieces of mail that she alerted me to during my trip. At my request/with my permission, she opened these specific letters and sent me a picture so I could address the urgent matter. During her stay she also let in our maid for our regular cleaning and paid her with the envelope of cash we had left for this purpose. Kaitlin is a wonderful person who has an obvious love of animals and a good natured heart. She is highly trustworthy and I cannot recommend her service enough.”
Brighton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Gabrielle is an absolute pro! She’s super professional and has a calming presence that makes you feel at ease. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. She did wonderful drop ins to support our elderly lab as he does best at home and does have trouble with stairs. She’s a lifesaver! I’d definitely book her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Isabella was so amazing!! She was extremely communicative and wonderful to work with. She took great care of my cats and they loved her visits. She took great care of them and sent great photos every visit. I trust her very much and would highly recommend her to anyone I know!

Taryn was incredible. She was able to overcome a rough start (my fault) with no complaints. She was fantastic with my "girls" ensuring they each got their own food regardless if they were stubborn. My one kittie is nervous yet Taryn won her over and by the end was taking her food in her normal spot instead of hiding under the bed. I can not thank her enough.

Morgan was absolutely amazing as a pet sitter for our dog, Ben, during our trip to the Tinker Nature Park and the Genesee Country Village and Museum. From the moment they met, Ben took to her instantly, going straight with her like they’d always known each other! He got to enjoy parks and even a Starbucks pup cup while riding up front in her car—talk about VIP treatment! Morgan’s communication was excellent. She met us at each of our destinations, making pick-ups and drop-offs so convenient. Plus, she helped make our trip even better by recommending local foods and must-see spots in the area, which was so thoughtful since we're not from there. One of the standout moments was when she caught a scheduling error in my vacation plans that I hadn’t noticed, which saved a big chunk of the trip from chaos. Honestly, Morgan didn’t just pet-sit; she helped make our vacation smoother and more enjoyable than we could’ve imagined. She’s truly perfect at what she does, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter!

Couldn’t be more pleased with the care and love Heidi gives to my cat Loki. Loki has tummy issues and Heidi was sure to give me updates with photos and always left the house in a clean condition. We will def be scheduling her in the near future. Thanks Heidi!
