“Karley was an absolute lifesaver for us while we were away! She took wonderful care of our cat, Elwood, ensuring he was happy and well-cared for. Beyond that, she went above and beyond by helping with things around the house, which was a huge relief. We truly appreciate her attention to detail and her kind, reliable nature. We highly recommend Karley to anyone looking for a fantastic pet sitter on Rover.com!”
“Joseph and Christine are great! They are communicative, and I felt confident leaving my pet in their care. I certainly recommend them to other pet owners.”
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Marcia! She took incredible care of our two fur babies while we were away, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. From the moment we met her, it was clear she truly cares for animals — our pets took to her immediately. Throughout our trip, Marcia kept us updated with messages, photos, and little notes that showed just how much attention and affection she was giving them. It made being away so much easier knowing they were happy, safe, and sticking to their routine. We came home to two very content pets and a home that was just as we left it. Marcia went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful to have found her. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and truly exceptional pet sitter!”
“A BIG thank you to Caitlin for taking such fabulous care of my two babies Felix and Ellie while I was out of town for two weeks. She was so great with them, and I felt at ease being gone so long, knowing she was taking such wonderful care of them!!! I highly recommend her, she is a sweetheart and always sent detailed updates and great photos!!! Thank you again, it was greatly appreciated!!! 😀”
“My husband and I had plans for some of our friends to stop in and check in on our girl after the holidays but with the giant southwest flight cancellations they were no longer able to make it & then our flights also got canceled. We were panicked. So thankful for Stephanie and her last minute stopping in for our girl. I highly recommend her for any of your fur baby needs. Our house is always a disaster when she shows up (got married, holidays, life lol) but she is always so kind and asks so many questions!”
“Rosa did an excellent job of watching my cat which included playing with her, feeding her and hanging out with her. 😻My cat did not want to see me come home lol😹 I am already rebooking Rosa for my next vacation away. I recommend her highly to anyone that has a cat that needs some TLC🐈⬛🐈”
“Helen is the best sitter we have had and always our top choice to take care of our boys when we travel. She was patient with them and won them over. You can tell from her updates and her pictures how much she cares and how much our cats adore her; from leg rubs to licks to sitting together.”
“We so appreciated being able to entrust our kitty to Jessica-it gave us such a peace of mind while away to get updates and photos from Jessica! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!”
About: I know how important it is to feel confident that your dog is in good hands. As someone who has always been organized and attentive, I make sure to follow your instructions closely and care for your pet just as you would at home. Over the years I've learned a lot from my own dogs; from giving careful medication to my beagle-mix with seizures, to all the patience and love my senior pug needed in his golden years. Now, I'm caring for a sweet (but sometimes nervous) chihuahua, so I truly understand the little things that can help shy or anxious pets feel comfortable. I only take one dog at a time, ensuring your pup won't feel overwhelmed or overlooked, and I can send you lots of pics and updates about their stay. My large, fenced yard is perfect for safe play, and if your pup loves to lounge on the couch or snuggle in bed, that's more than welcome - unless you'd rather keep furniture off limits, of course. My family has loved every moment spent with the dogs in our care, and we truly look forward to meeting you and your fur baby. It’s a joy to share this experience! I am a former stay at home mom that’s now an almost empty nester. My schedule is extremely flexible so I have plenty of time to devote to your pups well being. As a homeowner myself, I understand the responsibilities involved in taking good care of your pet AND your home. If you hire me for drop ins or for house/petsitting, you will come home to things just as they should be.
“Thank you Emily for taking care of my fur babies and easing my mind that they are taking care of while going through a difficult time in losing a loved one. Thank you again, very much appreciated.”
“Reliable, responsible, and respectful of our home and our cats feeding routine. My cats were not stressed at all when I came home. I would definitely rebook her anytime I’m able!”
“Annabelle charmed my shy kitties in just one day! Since they get fed different foods, on a schedule and not free-feeding, I was worried they couldn't be corralled into their appropriate places for mealtimes. But Annabelle did it. Great pictures and communications.”
“It was a pleasure having Yelena watch our three cats for almost 2 weeks. The pictures and videos she sent were wonderful to check out thousands of miles away from home. I would recommend Yelena unconditionally.”

We absolutely love our pet sitter, Marcia! This is our second time booking with her, and it’s easy to see why—she takes such great care of our fur babies as if they were her own. Always reliable, communicative, and thoughtful. We came home to happy pets and a tidy house. Highly recommend and will definitely continue to rebook!
Maisie was great! She took care of my two cats when I needed last minute drop-in visits. I’m so grateful she was able to care for them while I was gone. She played with them, scooped their litter boxes, fed them treats, and even made sure they had water as their bowl was not already out. It was a super easy process from start to finish! :)
Helen is the best sitter we have had and always our top choice to take care of our boys when we travel. She was patient with them and won them over. You can tell from her updates and her pictures how much she cares and how much our cats adore her; from leg rubs to licks to sitting together.
Annabelle was so fantastic!!! I’m an anxious cat mom who very very rarely leaves her boy at home and Annabelle put me at such ease. She sent tons of pictures and actually spent time playing with my crazy orange guy (who definitely needs the play time). She truly treated Finn like he was one of her own pets and was attentive with things I didn’t even expect a rover to do. When we got home, we saw that she left a postcard with pictures of Finn from the visit. My heart!!!! Annabelle was communicative, attentive, and overall just so caring with Finn and I would recommend her to any cat parent who wants to make sure their baby is well taken care of. 100/5 stars!
