“Katie was wonderful! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics and even tidied up before we got home. Our pets are spoiled with me working from home with them all day typically and Katie was able to spend so much time with them that I felt very reassured leaving them. Will be booking her again!”


“Nicole was wonderful! She was happy to come by and meet the dogs (and me) in advance, and upon meeting her I had no reservations about having her watch our pets in our home. She sent photos while we were gone and was very communicative. Would highly recommend!”


“Second time having Alan Michael watch Stella and second time he was available last minute for me, this time same day. He takes great care of her and I have peace of mind leaving her in his care. He'll definitely be the first person I look for when I need it.”


“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”


“Kai took the best care of our pups for 5 days. She is an excellent communicator and let us know when one started to get her bad seasonal allergies while we were away. I felt very assured that she was loving them as much as I do. The dogs are very happy and calm on our return, like we never left. Thank you so much Kai!”

“Saren is everything you would want in a dog sitter. She is responsible, good with dogs, good with communications, and very easy to work with. We could not have been happier with the week she spent with our dog.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own pets and fostering both cats and dogs. I'm an avid walker with a super flexible schedule, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you're away. I treat every animal like family—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have lots of availability and love being active, so I’m always ready for walks, playtime, and cuddles. My days are flexible, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency as often as they need. I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm very detail-oriented, neat, and organized. I'll always follow your instructions exactly to keep your pet comfortable and your home just the way you left it. You can trust me to treat both with the utmost care and respect.

“Amber was amazing! This was the first time we left our 3 mini dachshunds with anyone other than a family member and it was a great experience. Amber made sure all of our pups were well cared for and she stayed with them 100% of the time. She is a great dog person and our pups took to her immediately! She sent pics of all the pups cuddling with her! We couldn’t have found a better pup sitter! Already scheduled her for our next vacation!”


“Alyson was great with our 4 legged family member Rowdy. She gave him all the love he missed when we were gone. She took him for walks, sent pictures, sent videos and our house was left the way we left it. Definitely will book her again and would recommend her to anyone who asks.”


“Patrick was great with my pets! I went out of town last minute and got very lucky to get a great sitter! I came home and they were happy and healthy! Will definitely use again!! Thank so much for the great care.”


“Jordan is reliable, responsible, and so kind. Our sweet pup loved her! It was so reassuring to have her house sit while we were on a trip. The house was spotless and our dog who is usually pretty anxious was so playful when we got back - we could tell he had a great time with her. Thank you so much, Jordan!!”


“Ciara was an outstanding sitter. She went above and beyond in several ways and my animals were so happy and healthy when we got home from our wedding. Ciara made us and our fur babies feel like family and checked in regularly, respected our home and cleaned up leaving a clean home for us to enjoy and relax in. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we can’t thank her enough! We will definitely be having her back.”


About: I'd love to take your dog for a run! I've always had pets of all kinds and it is such a joy to care for them! I grew up with a dog, bird, lizards, rats, and hamsters, and now have a Pyrenees and two bunnies. I have also fostered puppies and senior dogs, so I have experience with all walks of life I work full time, but in a flexible job where it's easy for me to come visit your pets multiple times a day. I love to run and walk, so taking your pups for any type of exercise is the best part of my day! I always treat my pets like another member of the family and will treat your babies with the same love, care, and respect. It's hard to be away from them and you need to feel secure that they are well cared for.

About: Through my own dog, bear, I have developed a care and compassion for animals. Animals are my passion, and I plan to pursue this passion in marine biology after my undergraduate at JcTc to preserve the biodiversity of our planet. I am a graduate cum laude from high school, I have a total flexibility on weekdays, before 2:00pm on Fridays, and my weekends are open. I have a fenced in backyard, my pet has regular vet visits, I am responsible for insuring my dog the proper amount of nutrition each day. I understand the importance of daily walks, and use a leash at all times.

“Mary was great with both of our dogs over the weekend. She sent a ton of photo updates and seemed to enjoy spending time with them and playing with them. They’re both older and one needs medicine twice daily, which she was able to administer.”


About: I absolutely love spending time with animals! Whether it is a long walk, a run, or just giving them some attention, I always enjoy it. If your pet is up for it I am always down for a run instead of a walk! I have had experience with walking dogs but am not trained to handle dogs with more aggressive temperaments on walks. I have two beautiful cats right now and have much experience taking care of cats as well as dogs. I am comfortable administering shots and medicine as my previous cat had many health issues before she passed away. Current availability: Monday/Thursday: All day Wednesday: Early morning Friday: after 4:30 pm Saturday/Sunday: before 8 am + after 5:30 pm Please note: my availability is dependent on personal plans as well, please reach out for confirmation! I currently have two indoor cats that receive a lot of love, treats, and snuggles! I wake up every day to feed them at 6 am and play with them frequently. In the past, I have loved taking dogs on runs/walks, whatever the dog seems to be in the mood for. Cherokee Park is my go-to for dog walking because of its accessible water fountains for dogs. I also definitely enjoy playing fetch with dogs during walks.

“Carla is fabulous. She took care of my dog just like it was one of her own. She also left my home spotless and washed and changed the sheets on the bed. I highly recommend her.”


“Donovan was great with our two energetic pups! You can tell that he loves animals genuinely loves taking care of them. He communicated well and was able to book on short notice for a last second trip. Will definitely book with him again!”

“Jennifer provided daily care for my shepherd mix, Zeus, after I had a major surgery. I had a 6-week recovery period and Jennifer was a god send! She stayed in my home the first 3 nights while I was in the hospital, and then came by several times a day to walk him and make sure he got plenty of playtime and physical interaction. She is always very friendly and polite and left my home immaculate. I highly recommend her.”

Sara M.
“We have had great experiences with Sara caring for our animals. Our dog can be a little high-maintenance, wanting constant attention and affection, and Sara happily obliges. She is responsible, prompt with follow-ups, and very trustworthy. It makes us feel better knowing our pets are being cared by someone like Sara when we are gone. Highly recommend!”

Cherokee Gardens pet parents share their Rover experiences
Dallas was amazing! Another sitter had to cancel on us last minute and she was able to step in on super short notice which was a life saver. She was super communicative, sent us lots of updates and photos of our pup, and gave him good walks and exercise. We could tell when we got home he was happy and had a good time with Dallas. We'd definitely book her again.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Grayson! From the very first visit, it was clear how much love, care, and attention he gives to animals. He treated our pets like his own—sending us regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog (and even our usually shy cat!) instantly bonded with him, which says everything about his calming and kind presence. He went above and beyond making sure their routines were followed to a T. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. Grayson an absolute gem, and we feel so lucky to have found him!

There aren’t enough stars for Aleeza!! She recently stayed with our older cat, Zoey, for the second time. She was quick to notify us when Zoey started showing signs of a medical issue, and ended up taking her to the emergency vet. Aleeza stayed for hours until Zoey was seen and admitted. She was treated for a UTI, and the doctors have since identified the need for changes in her care due to CKD. Before her hospital stay and after she picked her up, Aleeza also kept us updated on how Zoey was doing and what she was eating. Thank you so much, Aleeza!! We are so grateful for the care and attention you showed Zoey 😊

Dp and Christian are simply the most conscientious, empathetic, thoughtful pet sitters who have ever cared for my 3 fur babies! They went way above and beyond to make our trip away a pleasant experience for our pets and a carefree one for us! Not only did they provide the highest quality care for our pets ( including bringing a wagon on walks with our senior border collie with spinal deterioration so she could ride home if she became too fatigued), they also left the house perfectly clean, laundered their bedding, AND made us some peach cobbler with peaches in my refrigerator! I highly recommend hiring them to care for your fur babies!

Jenn took amazing care of our pets and home while we were traveling. It is such a relief to come back to a place that looks like we never left and happy pets. Our dog Uno can be standoffish and anxious, and she took care of him like he was her own. This was the first time we had someone take care of him that wasn’t family and it went very well. He clearly had a great time with her and loved being spoiled with car rides. Jenn went above and beyond to make sure our guys stuck to their usual routine. Our cat is very social and misses the dog when he isn’t here. This was the perfect set up and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our babies!
