“Maria is very communicative and my dog absolutely loves her. It's clear that she cares about the dogs she looks after and I feel at peace knowing she is checking in on my little one. I appreciate her detailed updates and photos. We're so happy to have someone like Maria to look after our dog!”
“Jessica sent photos of suki daily and seemed very well cared for. She had plenty of food and water and was in a good mood so I know she took good care of her”
“Yujie took amazing care of my two 6-year old cats while I was away. Her energy is calming and my cats liked her right away from our initial meet and greet. They were very happy to have her come visit :). Yujie gave detailed written updates each day and was flexible with the timing of the drop in visits. Great communication and professional! She also sent so many cute pictures, a video, and played with my cats and spent time with them! I definitely recommend Yujie for drop in visits for cats!!”
“Katie was so kind and accommodating with our dog. We had her booked in advance for two separate stays and the day before our first trip, one of our dogs very unexpectedly passed away. She was a great problem solver and helped us to work out a new plan, enabling us to have piece of mind in going away in this upsetting time period. She helped make a very difficult time easier, and we loved our daily photo updates and reports on his behaviour. Thank you Katie! I know Stu will be looking forward to staying with your family in the future at some point :)”
“Camille was absolutely wonderful! Her thoughtfulness and care while watching my sweet kitty Oliver was more than I could have asked for. She was attentive, asked all the right questions and took a ton of photos to share with me while I was away. I would 1000% book with her again. I felt really safe and secure having my fur baby in her hands. :) Thanks Camille! Couldn't have asked for better!”
“Tricia was terrific and we would definitely hire her again. She was great with our Cavapoos, listened carefully to our instructions and was very professional. She is a dog person for sure and knows about their behaviors and cues. We were very pleased with her service.”
“Erica is wonderful! She took amazing care of our two cats; making 2 drop in visits each day. She left thoughtful comments as to how they were doing and sent photos with each visit. She clearly loves animals and is a lovely person herself! I will entrust her to care for my pets in the future.”
About: Hey there! New to Rover but I’ve been pet-sitting friends’ dogs and cats for years. I’m the person at the party that hangs out with your dog near the snacks 😄 Open to overnight stays and also walks/check ins, or local hikes if your pet wants a little adventure. I’m a healthcare admin professional, currently working a hybrid work-from-home schedule. I’m available mid-day through the evenings, and occasionally weekends for overnight stays as well! I am able to travel a bit to petsit your fur friend where they’ll be most comfortable. Can follow any rules you have for your pets, just let me know!
“Zahudy was great. She was very attentive our dog, Oliver, and communicated in detail with us every step of the way. Oliver behaved as if we never left home and I think Zahudy played a major role in him doing so well.”
“Denise is fantastic! We have relied on Denise many times now and she consistently does a great job. She’s smart, great with and knowledgeable about pets, thinks outside the box, and reliable because of those reasons and more. I recently took a trip where I had little to no phone coverage, and I knew I could count on her to take care of any issues that arose if she was not able to reach me. I look forward to relying on Denise again.”
About: Hi everybody my name is Maya! I’ve been taking care of animals since I was very young ever since I adopted my first dog at 8! 🐕 I’ve had so many pets from dogs, cats, fish, birdies to hermit crabs 🦜 I work part time and finishing up my degree at the local community college in my area so I have tons of free time to take care of your baby! I have a friendly older mini schnauzer and would love to meet your baby! Of course if not, no problem, we have a balcony and tons of space to roam!
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature. I grew up with a dog and a duck, and have continuously lived in homes with cats and dogs through college and graduate school, so I’m very comfortable with their routines and behavior. I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family over the years, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and keeping pets on their normal schedule. I also have three tortoises of my own, including one I’ve had for nearly 23 years, which has made me especially attentive to routines, environment, and long-term care. I am currently volunteering at the Kitten Nursery with the Peninsula Humane Society, where I help taking care of kittens too young for adoption. I have a very flexible schedule through freelance consulting work, which allows me to be available for pet care most days of the week, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether it’s regular visits or last-minute needs. The only consistent commitment I have is volunteering on Monday afternoons at the Peninsula Humane Society, but outside of that, I’m highly flexible and able to adjust to your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box or cleanup routines, exercise, and any specific preferences your pet is used to. I take a calm and patient approach, especially with shy or more independent pets, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own space. I also keep the home clean and organized, and treat it with the same respect I would my own. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Richard was beyond amazing! He took care of our Jasper for the few days we were out of town. We received daily photos and messages detailing his play time. Richard even brought over some cat toys for Jasper to play with. On top of that he kept the surrounding area of his litter clean, and also cleaned his dishes. He truly made us feel at ease. Jasper was in excellent hands while we were away. Highly recommend Richard.”

About: I’m a loving cat mom of 5+ years with a lifetime of experience caring for cats of all ages. I’m competent in simple dog training and am open to dog-sitting/walking, but cats are by far my specialty. I have proven experience building trust and bonding quickly with new cats, even those with behavioral issues or shy demeanors. I’m a teacher looking for extra summer work, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your furry friends June-August! I can make up to 5 visits on weekends and 3 visits on select weekdays. I will be nannying part time and will be available before 2pm and after 6pm on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. Please message me with any questions! I am soft, gentle and empathetic with all new pets I meet, especially when I’m entering their safe space! My cat was a mean, shy little boy when I adopted him at 7 months; but now at 5 years he’s happy and comfy as can be. I hope to provide this same experience for your pets, whether it be a short drop in or an overnight visit.
“Lauri has been great and has come for a few drop ins with our 3 dogs. They love her and she gives them plenty of love and attention. She goes above and beyond and helps out with things like picking up poop without being asked. Thank you Lauri!!”
“Jasmeen did a great job caring for my cat over a long weekend. I received regular updates and photos which was reassuring while I was away. Highly recommended. I would be delighted to work with her again anytime i travel.”

This was our first time having Jasmeen watch our cats, and she did an amazing job! Right from the first day, we could tell they were in good hands. She has a ton of experience and shared great tips and tricks for their care. We loved getting daily messages and photo updates. We will definitely be asking Jasmeen to take care of our cats moving forward!
We can't recommend Aik highly enough! He took wonderful care of our two cats for two weeks while we were away, and the entire experience was fantastic. We booked with him on fairly short notice, and he was incredibly responsive, responsible, and detail-oriented from day one. Since we were traveling in a different time zone, waking up each morning to a Rover card with detailed updates and adorable photos of our cats was such a great way to start the day. It gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. What we appreciated most was how at ease Aik made us feel throughout the trip. Leaving your pets behind is never easy, but we never had to worry. His communication was excellent, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about our cats. When we came home, our cats were relaxed, happy, and clearly very well looked after. We're so grateful for Aik's care and would absolutely book with him again. Highly recommended!
Maria helped me give liquid medication to my cat. Since I'm a new cat parent, I didn't have the skills to do it by myself. We worked out a good system and she taught me what I needed to do if I ever want to try it by myself. Even though my cat didn't like the medicine, she greeted Maria every time Maria came over. And, Maria brought lots of good treats to try out. The experience was very successful.
Yujie took amazing care of my two 6-year old cats while I was away. Her energy is calming and my cats liked her right away from our initial meet and greet. They were very happy to have her come visit :). Yujie gave detailed written updates each day and was flexible with the timing of the drop in visits. Great communication and professional! She also sent so many cute pictures, a video, and played with my cats and spent time with them! I definitely recommend Yujie for drop in visits for cats!!
Andrea did an amazing job caring for our kitties, Leya and Simon! We really appreciated how thorough she was and how carefully she followed all of our instructions. She spent lots of quality playtime with Simon, which he absolutely loved, and gave both cats wonderful care and attention while we were away. Andrea was also very respectful of our home, which gave us extra peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter!
Jae did a wonderful job watching our two cats! We really appreciated her availability over the holidays. She provided great daily updates and photos of our two cats while we were away. Jae is reliable and communicative and I’d definitely recommend her as a sitter.
Jiaru took great care of our cat, Tom, while we were out of town for the holidays. It was our first time leaving Tom, so we were very worried how he would do without us, but knowing Jiaru was taking such great care of Tom really helped us relax. She was attentive and communicative and shared many photos of Tom throughout. We're very thankful we found Jiaru and would absolutely book her again!
I don’t think our cats have ever been so well looked after! Natalie was professional and caring - from detailed note taking and daily reports, to playing them calming music during a storm, bringing extra litter to top up, offering homemade purée, photos, videos, everything. Cant recommend Natalie enough. 10/10.
Richard was beyond amazing! He took care of our Jasper for the few days we were out of town. We received daily photos and messages detailing his play time. Richard even brought over some cat toys for Jasper to play with. On top of that he kept the surrounding area of his litter clean, and also cleaned his dishes. He truly made us feel at ease. Jasper was in excellent hands while we were away. Highly recommend Richard.
