Cassie was excellent with our dog while we were away, we will absolutely be using her services again. Apart from being great with our dog, she was very punctual, reliable, and always left great notes and photos. Thank you, Cassie, appreciate the awesome care!

Divina is a wonderful pet sitter. I can highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, thoughtful and caring pet sitter. I don't often leave town, but she gave me confidence that everything was in great hands. She followed my detailed instructions as requested. She kept everything clean and in order including my cat's litter box. She has a way with animals, and genuinely enjoys being with them. This is clearly not just a job for her. Her gentle approach worked magic on my very shy cat. In a matter of hours, Betty Cooper, my cat, was greeting Divina and visiting with her. To my surprise, they were even playing together. She was on-time everyday. And her daily reports with pictures were enjoyable and informative. I was extremely worried about leaving town during a rare five-day winter hard freeze. Divina not only took great care of my fuzzy friend, she made sure all was well in the house. She did extra things to ensure my house was secure like bring in the mail and turn lights on and off to give the appearance of someone being home. Having her there gave me great peace of mind. She will definitely be pet and house sitting for me again in the future! Thank you very much, Divina!

Our usual cat sitter had an emergency and was not able to give our cat a visit. Even though it was very last min Rachel showed up for our fur baby and put us at ease knowing he got his daily cuddle and was fed. She was amazing !

Eric came and dropped in on my pup Patsy during our workday so she could get lunch, potty time, and some pets and play time to break up her time without us. Eric was great, very professional and Patsy seemed to like him immediately at the meet and greet. Eric sent a lot of pictures each check in which made us feel very comfortable and we could tell Patsy was having a nice time hanging out with him. We look forward to using Eric again in the future to check in on our Patsy girl!

Katie is the best. Easy to work with, reliable, great communicator, friendly & pro. She went above and beyond while caring for our Luna kitty in our home while we were away (even brought in a perishable delivery & put it in the dresser for us so it didn’t go bad!). She sent pics and even okayed with Luna so she wasn’t money and bored. She will be our go-to kitty sitter for sure. ??

About: I got my first dog when I was about 6, I loved that dog so much we did everything together. I have 3 dogs now and they are treated like a king and queens in the house. I will love and care for your animals as I do my own. I also rescued a whole litter of puppies and brought them back to good health and found them a good home. I am excellent with potty training too ! I am currently a stay at home momma to an 8 month old baby girl so my schedule is pretty open. Very excited to spend my free time caring for animals. I make sure the animals have everything they will need such as, basic necessities like food water and of course walks, to play time and getting off extra built up energy while owner is away.

Amber is great and so patient with our rescue, Riko. At first Riko was very scared and wouldn’t leave his cage during her visits, but Amber has done everything to make him feel comfortable and now he’s giving her all the love! Highly recommend Amber

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, but now that I’m living on my own, I can’t afford them. I am hoping to take care of someone’s dogs through this app. I am currently working part time over night so I will be free during the day after 10am but not later than 7pm. Same schedule for weekends and weekdays. I like to interact with dogs a lot, like playing games with them or just giving them lots of love and attention. For cats, I understand that they usually require more time to warm up to you, and have strong boundaries that I respect.

About: I’ve grown up with and had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, aquatic animals - turtles, lizards, hermit crabs, and fish. I walk my dog 3 times a day. I would love to incorporate more dogs in my life whether it’s just for a walk or for dog sitting. My dog also loves other dogs and would love to hang out with other pups! I walk my dog Katsu three times an every day and try to play with him for at least 30 mins. He loves other dogs and cats too.

About: There’s nothing quite like hitting the park with wet noses and wagging tails! Hi my name is Angie🦋 I’m 26 years old and I’m an experienced animal caregiver😊 I’m a mother to 3 dogs, 2 cats, 5 spiders and 3 fish, they are my LIFE so if I ever care for your pets they will be treated as if they were my own💖 I’m currently accepting cats, dogs, arachnids, reptiles, birds, fish and any other exotic animals! I started working with animals when I was 18, working at a pet store was my very first job and I fell in love with it. Being a dependable caregiver is something I’m very skilled in and something I love doing. I like to be a repeat caregiver because I create bonds and make clients and their pets apart of my life. I feel that it’s more than just being a babysitter, I also want to be a safety net and a friend. I have my own transportation and I follow directions and lists. I also send updates like pictures and videos and FaceTime calls💕 I love to create client retention so you and your baby can get to know me on a personal level🙂 I promoted my skills through social media and worked hard to gain client retention before I joined Rover so I have great references and repeat clients outside of Rover! If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask me! Can’t wait to meet you and your baby!❤️🐠🐰🦎🐱🐍🐶🐢🐷🕷🐥❤️ My availability is pretty open I have a very flexible schedule and I take last minute bookings/emergency bookings. You can also book far in advance. I like to sit down with parents and make a list or write down your pets basic routine. I believe routines are very important and try to stick to that as much as possible unless a parent requests changes in the routine. I’m currently working as an Uber Driver so I make my own schedule as I go. I’m A night driver unless requested by a repeat passenger, otherwise I’m free during the days. I’m not accepting boarding but I will happily come to your home and care for your pets. I feel it’s very important for animals to stay in a safe and trusted environment like their home while mom/dad is away.

Johana is a great sitter. She went above and beyond for me when I was delayed coming back on a trip and needed help in a tight spot. She's great with my dog and I'm comfortable knowing that she'll be taken care of when I'm not there. Johana has great communication and is very friendly.
