“Caio was incredible with my little Gracie. I could see the difference in her anxiety levels between leaving the first day and returning home. She was so happy and calm when I walked in the door. Caio goes above and beyond to provide the best care. He provides frequent updates and many sweet pictures. Highly recommend.”
About: "I’ve always loved animals. When I was 15, I had two dogs . I often looked after my mother-in-law’s dogs whenever she traveled. I also volunteered as a foster mom with the Humane Society of Missouri. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I take care of some pets in my building outside of the Rover app because the app takes 20 percent of my fee, plus charges the client an extra 11 percent. I'm always at home studying to validate my medical degree in the United States, so your pet will always be in good company. K I have a shorthair domestic black cat and small Shih Tzu. I love animals very much; I will take care of your pet as if it were my own child.
“Sydney and James are great with their care with Kiwi - they fed him according to my guidelines and also brushed him. They played with kiwi during their visits and enjoyed their time together. I will recommend them to anyone!”
“Tamara did a great job taking care of our cat while my wife and I were traveling. She kept up with all scheduled check ins, completed all required tasks, and gave us detailed summaries of each visit. She even went the extra mile to clean up broken glass from a poster that we had framed and fell on the floor (probably due to the window shaking during a storm) to ensure that our cat was unharmed. In the end, we were very happy with how Tamara took care of our cat when we were away. It’s always hard to travel and leave our pets at home, but having someone that you know is taking care of them makes all the difference.”
“Sam was great! My cat can be a little fiesty and Sam was very patient with her and gained her trust. Her rover cards were always detailed and had plenty of pictures that made me feel so much better about leaving my fur baby for the weekend. 10/10 would recommend booking with Sam!”
About: I worked and a vet assistant for 2 years where I learned to care for dogs and cats.I have experience with all types of dogs/cats and know how to handle certain personalities and behaviors. Growing up I constantly dog sat for friends and family and had 2 dogs of my own, a Morkie and a Golden. The past few years I have continued dog sitting and have added cat sitting to my repertoire. I will treat your furry friends as if they were my own and give them all the love and care I have to offer. I currently work a regular 8-4 M-F job and would love to care for your pets on my off hours. I genuinely enjoy taking care of animals and will give them my full attention when I see them. I am available in the off hours of my job and on weekends. I have no pets of my own currently in the house. So your pet will be given my undivided attention! I live in the city so if you are comfortable with your dog getting to explore downtown, then I am more than happy to board them with me. However if that is not the case, I am more than willing to come stay with your pet in their own environment. I plan to keep their schedule the same as if you were taking care of them to minimize disruption.
About: I have a miniature schnauzer who I trained and raised from a puppy. I’m looking to gain more experience with all kinds of dogs. I am very interested in fostering later in life and I am missing my pup while I’m away at school. I know life can be hectic so I am excited to help anyone out a little and meet some new pets in my free time! I am working part time and in school. I work mostly mornings and have classes at night right now, however Tuesday’s are my busiest days right now. The rest of the week after 1:00 and I am free and looking to fill that time earning a little extra money and spend time with some furry friends! Every week looks a little different and I don’t always have work in the morning so please feel free to reach out, I may be available! :) I know every pet is different and needs different things. I am very flexible and happy to cater to different situations as they come. I enjoy walking and exercising so I am happy to do long and short walks, parks and more. I have an anxious dog myself so I understand some pets need a little space when meeting new people and new environments. I’m looking to give your pets the best experiences possible and listen to any instructions you may have for them.
About: I have over 25 years of hands-on pet care experience and have been a lifelong dog mom. Caring for pets have always been a natural part of my daily life! Over the years, I've cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower gentler pace. I am comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, administering basic medications, crate training support, and maintaining consistency with your dog's normal schedule. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and relaxed in their own home, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. As a mom , I'm patient, attentive, and dependable. I take pride in being reliable, respectful of your home, and communicative, with regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you're away. My goal is to always provide trustworthy care and peace of mind for both you and your pet. I offer dependable pet care with an availability that works well for evenings, overnight, and weekends. I am available Monday through Friday 6:00 P.M.-6:00 A.M. Making me a great option for evening walks and overnight care for third shifters!! On Saturday and Sundays, I'm available 24 hours a day. Allowing me to provide flexible care when needed to help you maintain your pet's routine when your away. To ensure my clients peace of mind I would be more than happy to schedule a visit to meet and greet your fur baby prior to scheduling with me. This provides a chance for your fur baby to learn about me as well.
“Avery did a great job with our cat on every level. It was great to come back from our vacation to find him in good health and with his normal personality. All the communications and photos were excellent and everything went according to plan.”
About: Since the age of 12 I have had dog and cats in my life and have had to care for them. It is one of my true passions, and always will be. I have found dogs and cats both are pretty fond of me and while I understand them I also am very sensitive to how to treat pets correctly. I believe that comfort and safety are priority number one, and I will always make sure your pet is happy while under my care! While I am work full time remotely for a media tech company, I have quite a bit of free time and can make morning visits work along with lunch time walks of nighttime dog watching. My services are quite extensive and I am very flexible to my clients schedule. In my home because I have 2 dogs already, 1 who is now too old to have dogs coming in and out, I will need to keep services to others homes and public spaces. That being said, I am quite meticulous when it comes to cleanliness and organization. While in your home I will give it the utmost respect as I would my own. While in public spaces, I will treat your pet as if they were my own! Animals are my passion and being in a comfortable space is a major part of this.
About: From a young age, I have always had a pet. I love animals and look forward to taking care of your special pet/s :) I have experience with all ages and tailor my care depending on their individual needs. I am responsible, punctual, and detail-oriented. I am currently a first year law student at Cleveland State, so I have a lot of flexibility with my school schedule. Mondays I have class from 1:00-2:40 pm, Tuesdays & Thursdays from 10:00am-11:15am & 1:00-2:40 pm, and Wednesdays from 10:00-11:45am & 1:00-2:40pm. My boyfriend and I keep our apartment spotless so your dog/cat would be safe from any foods that may cause them harm! I also love going on walks or cuddling with your pet on the couch.
About: I have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, and caring for them comes naturally to me. With years of hands-on experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable handling large breeds, small breeds, and everything in between, and I understand how their needs can vary depending on their size and stage of life. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and of course plenty of playtime and affection. Pet sitting isn’t just a job to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. I am currently in school but available almost everyday after 3:00 and in the summer available all day, everyday to take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in yard and big house with a big kennel if needed. I have a very friendly cat and cavalier King Charles spaniel however they can easily be separated from your pet if required!
“Carla is awesome, coming to the rescue with a last-minute cat visit when I had to leave town suddenly and giving them and my house the best care and me, peace of mind. I genuinely appreciate her flexibility and sweetness, and we would welcome her back anytime for future travels!”

I cannot say enough amazing things about Caio as a cat sitter. From the very beginning, Caio was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive, which immediately gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, especially when your cat is such an important part of your life, but Caio treated my cat like his own. He took the time to understand my cat’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the level of care he provided. I received updates and photos that reassured me everything was going great, and it was obvious my cat felt comfortable and relaxed around him. When I came home, everything was spotless and my cat was happy, calm, and clearly very well cared for. What really stood out was how thoughtful and responsible Caio was throughout the entire experience. He didn’t just “check in” on my cat—he genuinely cared about her well-being and made sure she had attention, affection, and proper care every day. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly excellent with animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Caio. Knowing he was there taking care of my cat made all the difference, and I would absolutely trust him again without hesitation and have and booked him way in advance. This reassures I have him and his time for when I need him. Thank you !

Sam is such an amazing sitter!! I had her watch my cat for a second time. She is so good with my cat, and respects her boundaries while caring for her. She always sends multiple pictures and great updates when she does a drop in. She is also very responsive to messages and requests. If you’re looking for a sitter I definitely recommend reaching out to her!!
Sydney did such an amazing job with my cat for the week! She sent so many pictures and my cat seemed very friendly and comfortable with her. She cleaned up any messes he made and sent pictures of his food and water every day, so I felt very confident that he was getting the best care possible. Will definitely be using Sydney again for future cat sitting needs!
Nicole did a great job, and on very short notice! She jumped in quickly to take care of our pup for a drop in, and she handled it all with such kindness and professionalism. Communication was clear and we got a great update. Glad to have her back for future visits!
