Excellent sitter, clearly cared for the boys beyond the requirements. He got an inconsistent eater to eat, cleaned up after one that micturated on a rug, and even played music for them. The one that's generally friendly loved him, and the one that's generally unfriendly tolerated him right off the bat which is impressive.

About: I grew up raising puppies and have spent most of my life around big dogs. I also have experience with larger farm animals. I have 2 years of dog sitting experience since I became a working professional after college and 4 years of dog walking experience on various other apps. I have cared for and helped train puppies and have senior dog experience, including grooming, teeth brushing, nail clipping and more. I work full time but am looking to spend as much time outside of work with pets both for exercise and because I love animals. I am available mornings, evenings and weekends. I am quick to learn about clients homes, very neat and generally help my clients around the house. I think animals are most comfortable in their own environments so I like to stay with them rather than the other way around. If the pet parent has a yard, I make sure to play with the dog in the yard, otherwise I will take the dog on multiple walks through out the day!

Dog Sitter Review: Exceptional Care and Attention! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of using John for the second time, and once again, he exceeded all my expectations! This time, he took care of not just my resident dog but also my foster puppy, and I couldn't be more grateful for his dedication and compassion. It was clear that John has a genuine love for animals. He provided both dogs with plenty of attention, playtime, and care, ensuring they felt comfortable and happy during my absence. His ability to manage the needs of both my resident dog and a young, energetic puppy was impressive, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. What truly stood out this time was the extra effort he put into making my home feel welcoming upon my return. Not only did he take great care of my dogs, but he also went above and beyond by cleaning my apartment and even disposing of my trash! It’s those little touches that show how much he cares about his clients and their homes. I cannot recommend John enough! His professionalism, attentiveness, and kindness make him an outstanding choice for pet care. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family and ensure your home is well taken care of, look no further. I will definitely be using his services again in the future! Thank you,John, for all that you do!

Courtney always does such a wonderful job when she walks and checks in our Fufu. I feel much more at ease knowing she will be coming by. I also love the pictures she sends of their time together so I can see him and know he's having fun.

About: I’ve cared for cats for over 3 years and absolutely love spending time with all animals, especially dogs. I’m gentle, patient, and reliable, and I follow routines carefully. I enjoy keeping pets happy and active, and I always follow instructions to ensure they’re safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pet like my own and provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease. I’m more than happy to make room in my routine for your pets—they’re a joy to be around, and I’d love to spend my free time caring for them. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I follow your routines carefully—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I give pets plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. My goal is to make their time with me feel familiar and stress-free.

About: My passion for pets and commitment to their well-being, have helped me acquire invaluable experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies who can’t get enough playtime to seniors who prefer a cozy spot by the window, I tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs. I understand the importance of routine, which is why I prioritize punctual feeding and walking schedules. For many dogs, these moments are the highlights of their day, and I strive to make every experience enjoyable and fulfilling. Whether it’s hiking for the adventurous or gentle leash walks for those who like to take it easy, I’m dedicated to ensuring their happiness and comfort during their time apart from their owners. Additionally, I'm attentive to the emotional needs of pets who require extra affection and support. I take pride in creating a nurturing environment that helps ease their anxiety and keeps them engaged and content while their family is away. With my pet care experience, you can trust that your furry family members will receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! My schedule allows me to be flexible enough to adapt to your pets schedule! Thursday nights are when I'm on a tighter schedule but I'm glad to talk this over! I make sure to make their time away from you as close to their daily routine as possible. I make sure to know their likes and dislike to make them feel as safe and comfortable as possible. There are some dogs that do not feel good in loud and busy areas. So I make sure to go on walk them in quieter places. Also, if I am house sitting some prefer to co-sleep and I am comfortable doing so. Every pet care experience is catered to your and your pets liking :)

Natalie was absolutely wonderful!! My girls (Romy and Michele, two very felonious felines) immediately warmed up to her and she loved them as if they were her own. Natalie was exceptionally communicative, took many pictures, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed being with my girls. I will DEFINITELY be using Natalie again, and I cannot recommend her in the strongest enough terms to any cat parent!

Forrest and I are so happy to have had Trina drop in and spend time with him. She is a remarkable caregiver and her affection for dogs is undeniable. I did not have to worry about her professionalism (she kept to the scheduled appointment, showed up on time, did not leave the place in a mess, and appropriately engaged with my dog based on his interest and energy level). It’s hard to find someone who can connect with dogs as well as she does and we are excited to have her to sit for us again.

About: Hi! My schedule will be tailored to yours. I am very flexible and willing to do services with little prior heads up. Just message me for whatever you need and I will make it work. Ive taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since i was very young. There has always been some sort of animal in my house hold whether thats a small dog, a big dog, a couple of cats, birds or guinea pigs. My relationship with my animals has always been a mutual respect for each other without any issues in the past with authority which is due to my training and conditioning with my animals. I’ve made my home a safe and loving environment for my animals with their best interests considered first with daily physical and mental stimulation with fun games and walks as well as nutritious diets containing real food. I’d love to get to know your pup and take him or her on long walks. I dont have a very packed schedule so ill have plenty of time to play with your pups and kitties! Im able to walk or feed your dog before 9 am and at around 12.30 in the afternoon every weekday as well as boarding your pup or kitty at my house or watching your dog overnight at your home every week day except Friday. Weekends I have more flexibility during the day and can watch your companion overnight on saturday and sunday if needed. I am flexible with day of requests for random times and can make those work every now and then. ALL PRICES ARE NEGOTIABLE. I have a fenced back yard and a very friend shiba inu and chow chow mix who is a spayed female dog and is the light of my life and a black outdoor cat. My dog is very friendly with all animals and is very curious of being friends with others and would be a perfect companion for your animal.

About: Growing up in Indonesia, I cared for more than 15 cats over the years. When I later moved to the Netherlands, I started cat-sitting on the side. I love having cats around, but since I’m not ready to adopt one of my own just yet, cat-sitting is the perfect way to have one around while helping their owners. Since 2021, I’ve looked after over 20 pets, including an unforgettable cat-sitting experience in Spain. I always send plenty of photo and video updates and make sure to respond quickly to owners. I also have an instagram if you want to see more of my cat-sitting experiences 🐾 I work remote so I am very flexible to take care of pets and also to do last minute drop-offs and pickups. I can also provide frequent updates. I make sure the space is clean, secure, and free of hazards, with cozy spots for naps and windows for curious cats to look out of. I always give them plenty of affection and attention, while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’m also happy for them to sleep with me at night and cuddle ❤️

About: Hi, I'm Lizzy! I am a graduate student at Palo Alto University, I have had my labrador since he was the length of my forearm! We've had many adventures together. I hope to have many adventures with your puppies (even the big dogs are puppies to me). As a dedicated dog lover, I aim to befriend your pet's personality and absolutely spoil them! I am very responsive and love providing updates of your pet's adventures! I have time every day of the week to check in and be with your pet. While I won't be having pets in my home, watching them thrive in their familiar home sounds like a great time! I am SO ready to play with them, take them out in the nice weather, and give them all the attention they deserve (which is every ounce!)

This is the first time I have used Rover.com to find a pet sitter for our cats. I reached out to Tyler and had a meet and greet with him. Tyler was wonderful with the care of our kitties. I could tell that they were cared for as they seemed calm (not starved for attention) upon our return 7 days later. I loved the daily reports and photos from Tyler. He kept me informed and the pet areas (litter, feeding mats) were clean. It was a pleasure to have Tyler take care of our cats. I would definitely recommend him and will book him again next time we have a trip.

Rachel C. was amazing. She is 100% trustworthy. She had great reviews, and they were right. I had some family come from out of town, and I needed someone to drop in on my puppy, who was 3.5 months old. I splurged and booked 2 hours each day at different times, so that I could schedule the times when she would come (2 one-hour sessions). She came to visit before confirming. My puppy loved her! Rachel sent so many photos and videos. I booked her for a few days in a row, and Rachel came when she said she would. It was so nice and such a relief to find Rachel, someone who is reliable. I was also comforted that she has a degree, and has lots of experience with animals. Rachel went above and beyond, by changing out and cleaning up puppy pads for me, and making sure my puppy had food, water. And most of all, that my puppy had some quality play time and snuggle time with a human. Thanks again for all your help! I will book Rachel again with any dog sitting needs.

We hired Lisa to help with 1 diabetic cat + 1 territorial cat on our wedding night. She was amazing - before, during, and after the care. She took care of the accidents that the diabetic cat made and helped empty the litter box drawer. We didn’t have to worry about cleaning after a long wedding day. 100% worth reaching out to her. The communication was smooth and she replies pretty fast! Our diabetic cat seemed to love her in the photo she sent (it’s rare to see her lean against a “stranger”)
