“Beverly was super helpful and kind with our dog Oliver. He immediately liked her and she was great at communicating and sending pictures/ updates. Will definitely be contacting her next time we need a pet sitter!”

“Roxy was responsive, arrived as scheduled, and checked on our pets as requested. I also appreciate Roxy bringing in our mail packages that were left at the door. Thank you!”
“Im so thankful Coretta was available to care for Douglas while I was away! She is such a lovely person and so good with animals. She did a wonderful job and was very communicative and responsive the whole time. No question I will rebook with her the next time I’m out of town!”

About: I have experience with dogs with anxiety who use medication, needy/clingy dogs, and dogs with disabilities. I am extremely thorough and patient in case something goes wrong with them and I maintain a calm demeanor at all times. When it comes to instructions, please provide a brief, detailed description of your pet's daily routine and I'll follow it to the letter. I'm currently a graduate student at CSU; summers are a slow period for me. I am more than willing to babysit pets for as many nights, walks, feeding times as needed. During school time I will do walks, feeding visits and the occasional overnight weekend stay. I am committed to your pet's comfort level and will adapt to their schedule to the best of my ability. I will spoil them rotten because I absolutely love all dogs and cats of all shapes and mannerisms. Even if they hate me. If I am confused about anything regarding your pet's behavior, such as licking paws, over-grooming, an increase in urination, I will let you know about it as soon as I see it. I also LOVE talking to the pets so I will have full-on conversations with them. I'm especially good with repeat visits so if you are interested in having a one-time sitter for the next few years, I'm MORE than willing to take up that responsibility. Familiarity is very important with pets and as mentioned before, I am focused on the pet's comfort.

“Jennifer did a superb job taking care of my kitty Mira while I was traveling! I am grateful to have found such a wonderful and reliable cat sitter. Very highly recommended!”


About: I take care of all animals in my care, mine or not. I never yell and I don't abuse any animal. I treat them as my own and I make sure that their tail wags every time that they see me. I work as a full time dog groomer and now that Rover has that service, I would like to build my own clientele. I work full time so unless I am doing a house sitting or the place is close by that I can do a fly by, I am not available in the morning most days except weekends. Your dog is never out of my sight unless I allow they are secure in a crate. Any thing that brings me concern will be immediately brought up with you and I will find any solution I can to help.

About: For the past ten years, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of canine and feline companions, from energetic puppies and kittens to serene senior dogs and cats. My approach is always rooted in patience and love, ensuring every animal feels comfortable and cared for. I have extensive experience in administering medications, a testament to my ability to handle sensitive situations with gentleness and precision. My dedication extends to understanding the unique needs of each animal, fostering a trusting and supportive environment for all. I’m currently working from home and have a lot of flexibility to provide pet sitting in my home , dog walking and drop in visits. I have a gated yard. I can crate your furry friend if needed. I always use a Lesh when walking. I will follow your pet schedules just the way you would at home. I will provide plenty of one on one play time. I am constantly sanatizing and cleaning my home to keep your fur baby safe
“Toni is great. Responsive, responsible, caring and capable. I felt very reassured after meeting her and knew I was leaving my cat in good hands. She kept me up to date on visits and I returned to a well cared for cat. The best!!”

“Kendyll worked really hard to win over our skiddish dog. He is very afraid of new people, and she was patient with him and worked with him to get him to trust her. Really appreciated having her with him!”

About: I've owned pets my whole life. I currently own two pets: a Coton de Tulear named Kitty and a sweet German Shepherd named Medusa. I volunteer at animal shelters, and work as a veterinarian assistant. I have experience with cats and dogs ranging from newborns to seniors. While I have my own pets, rest assured your baby will have my undivided attention while in my care. I interact with pet on a daily basis. I work as a vet assistant, and have my own pets. I have lots of free time throughout the week that I occassionally dedicate to my neighborhood animal shelters. My most open days are Wed - Fri. Pets will never be left unsupervised in my care. Only pets from one household will be walked at a time. When doing drop in visits I pay close attention to the instructions given by the pet owner, and will ensure the pet is comfortable before departing. I will provide pets access to water at all times, and pay close attention for any signs of discomfort. I always keep a first aid kit handy. I do not offer treats or foods that are approved of by the owner first. If I notice anything concerning I will notify the pet owner. I'll also provide cute update photos for the owners reassurance.
“Tara is fantastic! You can tell she really enjoys her job! She is timely, thorough and loving! Tara took great care of our big boy kitty Bela, she took time to get to know him, Bela loves to play and Tara was great playing with him, above and beyond what was expected! Tara is great with communicating and sending pictures, we felt very comfortable leaving Bela in her care. We will definitely request her again the next time we need care for Bela! We highly recommend Tara W!”

About: I've taken care of my personal dogs and my cats over the years since I was 10. I've also cared for family pets, including babysitting, bathing, feeding, and caring for them. Ive even groomed my own dog. I do everything! I am currently on break, so I have loads of free time for your pet pals. They will be my top priority when they are in my care! Walks and sitting are enjoyable with me, I can train and easily keep it fun with your pet pals. I bathe, groom, and do so much more amongst other things!
“I am very glad that Manuela helped with my cats during our vacation. Manuela came before my trip to meet Mia and Aska, and then came on all the appointed days. Sent me photos and videos of them playing together. I can recommend Manuela as an excellent nanny for kittens :)”
About: Fenced yard, structured routine, and attentive care in a real home environment. I provide clean, consistent boarding with clear expectations so dogs can settle quickly and feel secure. I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds and temperaments, including Afghan Hounds, Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Cockers, Min Pins, Weimaraners, and Akitas. I’m comfortable handling both easygoing dogs and higher-energy or more strong-willed personalities. My home is set up for structure and safety. I have multiple crates in different sizes, a dedicated space for separation when needed, and a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor time. If your dog does best with a quieter environment or needs to be the only dog, I can accommodate that with advance notice and adjusted pricing. Dogs aren't just welcome here, they're remembered. I'm currently home during the day with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time, space, and love to offer pets who need calm, consistent care while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine and brings so much joy into our home. I approach every client's home with the same respect I would want someone to have in mine. I've worked in private homes as a section 8 inspector and a home care aide, so I'm comfortable operating professionally in someone else's space. I follow all house rules, keep things clean, and ensure pets feel safe and at ease while you're away. We live in a pet-friendly neighborhood, and I often take walks around the neighborhood, so any pet will get the benefit of fresh air, familiar sights, and friendly energy. We have a peaceful, fenced yard, and a couple of unoccupied spaces for rest or separation when appropriate. I'm very aware of animal behavior, neighbor pets, and how to make pets feel safe and seen. This is a calm, kid-friendly, and pet-loving home.

“Anyah spent three days looking after our very shy cats and she took their standoffish nature in stride. She was communicative, organized, friendly, and punctual. Most importantly, she helped us out when we really needed a reliable pet sitter, and was unbelievable accommodating of our cats’ many quirks. We will absolutely be calling her first from now on.”

Chatham pet parents share their Rover experiences
Claire is absolutely wonderful. She accepted my request at the last minute and truly cared about my cats’ well-being. She kept me updated throughout the day and made me feel completely at ease. She’s definitely a keeper, and I would highly recommend her to anyone

Emily is truly amazing; she did drop-ins on my cat for a little under 2 weeks. My cat is typically on the shy side when it comes to meeting new people but Emily took her time to get to know him. Emily provided a lot of pictures and was quick to respond to any questions. I came home to a clean space and happy pet— I’d definitely recommend her services!
