About: I have been dog and cat sitting for friends and neighbors since college. I have done over night visits to stay with anxious pets who need a human to sleep by, drop ins for cats and dogs, and walked dogs. I am currently back home for summer break from medical school. I am available any hour of the day to feed, play, and walk your pet. I can only do house visits because I am staying at my family’s home. But I will make sure to follow your directions on how to properly take care of your pet.
“Jenna is absolutely wonderful! If you are looking for a sitter that truly puts your pet's needs above all else, look no further! We feel so fortunate to know Jenna lives right down the street and we can rely on her if an emergency ever arises. Thank you for everything you do!!”
About: I previously worked for one year at a professional cattery, where I cared for cats of different ages, personalities, and special needs. I truly love animals—I currently have two cats and a chinchilla—so pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I’m familiar with basic pet health, behavior, and stress signals, and I always pay close attention to each pet’s comfort and safety. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playing, or comforting shy or sensitive pets, I approach every animal with patience, gentleness, and genuine care. I work on Sundays and Mondays, but I have flexible availability on the rest of the week. I’m fully available for visits and cat sitting from Tuesday to Saturday, and I can often adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s routine. I always prioritize safety and a calm environment. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and well-organized to ensure your pet stays comfortable. I’m experienced in handling different temperaments, and I always introduce new pets slowly and respectfully. With my knowledge of basic pet care and behavior, I make sure each animal feels safe, understood, and relaxed throughout their stay.
About: We don't have any pets of our own, but have experience with taking care of cats/dogs for our friends, family, and now Rover clients! We only take one "family" at a time (up to 2 dog/cat siblings). I'm available during the week and on weekends to care for your dogs or cats. My fiancé and I both work from home, and are flexible to take breaks to walk or play with your pets! When boarding your pets, we can offer them plenty of love and attention! For dogs, we usually do at least 2 walks per day (we keep the afternoon ones short if it's too hot). We have a large fenced-in backyard and a few parks in walking distance. For cats, we love playing with them with wand toys or simple yarn, or putting some Cat TV on for them haha.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was young. I grew up with it all, from dogs of all sizes such as teacup chihuahuas to German shepherds. Aside from the animals I’ve had at home, I keep busy with caring for animals as a vet assistant at a local animal hospital nearby for the last several years. I can offer some helpful tips, good knowledge and a few tricks on how to keep your pet happy as can be. I work full time and go to school but I do have days off where I would be available to help out and make sure your pets get the exercise and enrichment they need when you’re away I prefer working with animals in a environment that they are comfortable. I would like to know each pets personality traits and what they don’t and do like.
About: I am very loving to every animal. i am a lover and get attached very fast. I will take care of yours like my own. I currently work from home, I am available all throughout the day and night to care for all the animals that come into my home. I am available for strict schedule or even schedules that aren't really schedules. I can do it all. However or whatever you need i will do. i know pets are your kids and i am willing to make any adjustments needed to work with you
About: I’ve grown up with animals in and around the house. I currently live with 11, 2 dogs and 9 cats. All of which vary in age. I’ve bottle fed newborn kittens, administered flea medication and other oral and external medications, and I can keep animals company. I’m working part-time and I’m currently looking for another source of income even if it’s just a little side money, I don’t do much outside of work, while my schedule is inconsistent, I don’t work often, though I’m willing to negotiate scheduling. I have 11 animals in my house. Currently 2 kittens who I have bottle fed, and in the process of harness training. I have a fenced backyard for my two dogs, and a cat who loves to smell the flowers. NONE of my felines are outdoor cats, though as previously mentioned, I have one who likes to take a step outside every once in a while and one of my kittens has a borderline unhealthy attachment to me. The litter boxes are cleaned every other day, and all animals, except the kittens because of how old they are, are on a feeding schedule. The dogs do get cooked meals. Currently I only have 2 animals posted on my profile, but I do live with 11 total. I just have yet to make their profiles.
“Pam was great! I have a senior dog so sometimes I have to give really specific instructions and she follows them exactly! She provides updates and lets me know how everything went which eases my anxiety. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future”
About: I am extremely passionate about animals. I have a background in animal behavior and biology, and have worked with domestic and exotic species for most of my life. For dogs, I have worked in rescue and boarding situations. I have a wealth of experience in handling and managing behavioral challenges such as fear aggression, reactivity, and resource guarding. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, and have been trained to administer all sorts of medications. Additionally, I have worked with puppies and adult dogs in behavioral training, and am more than capable to follow your routines for management. I have worked with all manner of cats, as well as medication administration and general husbandry. I am more than willing to discuss specifics, in the case your kitty has some special instructions. Even if they aren’t the most friendly to strangers, I’m willing to work with them. Reptile, amphibian, and aquatic care is also well within my capabilities. I have experience with a host of different species, and am always willing to discuss specifics. I want what is best for you and your pets, so let me know how I can set them up for success. My schedule changes, but I have general availability throughout the week. Your needs can be discussed and worked with to best fit both our schedules. I always want to set your pets up for success. Open communication and discussion about your pet’s needs is my utmost priority. I want them to be comfortable in my presence, and that starts at the door. Allow me to work with you on how best to care for your animals while they are in my care. Your animals will always be safe in my care, and never placed in an environment that would endanger them.
“Megan treated Mowgli like her own! She is warm loving nurturing and so kind and caring towards Mowgli!! She takes her job very seriously and goes above and beyond for your fur baby!!!! We are forever grateful!”
“Abigail was amazing with our pet cat. She went out of her way to play with him and bring him different items for entertainment. We appreciate her attention to detail from how he likes to be fed as well as just keeping him company for an hour so he wouldn’t feel lonely. She shared cute pictures and videos and communicated well while we were away. She was respectful of our home and we look forward to booking her again.”
“Jahni was great with our dog. It was especially nice to see the pics and walking route she spent each day. She was responsive to my notes and I would highly recommend her. The Rover app was good also and insures a nice level of trust and professionalism into the whole process. I will also recommend the service. The Rover App was also vood”
About: I've grown up with and around many different dogs and cats. Caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, needs, and personalities. My extended family and I usually have our dogs with us on camping trips and visits, so I have spent lots of time training, walking, feeding, bathing, playing, and transporting our pets during these get-togethers. I currently care for my 2 young spaniels and senior Chihuahua mix. All enjoying their individual schedules for a fun and fulfilled day. :) I'm currently in online classes and enjoy getting outside for fresh air and some sun. Walks are even better with a sweet dog to share with! I am mobile with a flexible schedule and decent amount of free time that allows me to switch up my daily routines and availability. With the amount of time I've spent caring for pets, I understand that every pet is unique and special. I have always taken a patient and positive approach when training and interacting with my dogs/cats or others. Knowing additional details about your pets personality and what they're familiar/comfortable with is very helpful and always prioritized. I follow every given instruction given to me in the case that I am visiting your house and furry friends.
“Lottie did an amazing job watching our 2 cats while we went out of town. We got plenty of updates on them while we were away and the cats really seemed to love Lottie, even our shy guy. We will definitely book with Lottie again for any future trips.”
About: I believe in enrichment for animals of all needs and ages, and my special experience with senior dog care makes me even more devoted to the needs of all creatures and critters. I will have plenty of time to play with your animals, so any routine or even routines of odd hours should suffice! Dependent on owner needs I care for pets depending on the needs of owners in their personal spaces. As an adaptable care worker I strive to meet the needs of my host.

Charter Oak cat parents share their Rover experiences
Anna was so fantastic I’m so lucky she was available on short notice! Super reliable and was even able to make it out during the city wide power outage and over the holidays. Felt comfortable knowing she would be there to look after my kitty while we were away!
We booked Skylar to care for our three cats for two weeks and she was on time for drop-ins and attentive during each session. She was respectful and able to adapt to each cat's personality, especially one of our high-energy cats, and gave them all plenty of pets and treats. Skylar brought in our mail and packages; kept our spaces clean, and even handled our bins for trash collection days. Will definitely book Skylar again in the future and highly recommend her!
As cat owners, we were hesitant to use Rover since many sitters seem to specialize with dogs. We noticed that Jaclyn had photos of both cats and dogs on her profile and we were so happy to have found her! From the moment she arrived for the meet and greet, we knew our kitties were in good hands. Even our shy girl, came out to play! We loved the daily picture updates and were impressed with Jaclyn’s ability to get both kitties in frame each time :) In addition to checking in on the kitties, she also checked our mail and offered to bring in the garbage cans after trash day. Overall, we are so so grateful for Jaclyn’s professionalism, communication, and care! 100% recommend for any feline friends!
