I don’t know how Lily is always available when I need her but I am SO grateful!! My boy is big and wild and she really handles him with patience and care. When I get home, he’s happy and I can always tell that he’s been well taking care of. You won’t regret booking this sweet young lady!

We were extremely happy with Katelyn, and the dogs were too! During our meet & greet both dogs went up to her, wagging their tails like she was family. She got them to pose for pictures, which was amazing. They’ve both camera shy and even as an agility trainer I’ve had difficulty getting them to cooperate for family photos. Katelyn went over and above in every way.

Renee B. is fantastic! She took care of our cats (we have four) while we were away for a week during a holiday. She responded to our initial request very quickly, was quick to set up a visit/meet-and-greet, and communicated early and often leading up to our reservation. During the stay, she took care of our cats every day and really spent time and effort playing with them and sharing creative Rover cards and sending pics/videos of our cats. She also took care of some of our house plants and was just really exceptional overall! We will definitely work with her again and would recommend her to anyone need care of their cat children.

We had another fantastic experience! Maura did an excellent job checking on and feeding our cat while we were out of town. Communication was great, everything was done exactly as instructed, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing our cat was well cared for. We will continue to trust her again and highly recommend.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a lifelong dog owner, animal rescue volunteer, puppy foster, and experienced pet sitter, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs, including newborn puppies, senior dogs, and pets requiring medication. My love for animals started early. My mother was a veterinary technician, and I grew up helping care for animals and learning the importance of compassionate, attentive care. Today, I continue that commitment with my own dog, who has special medical needs, giving me firsthand experience with detailed care routines and medication administration. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. When you’re away, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, providing reliable care, plenty of attention, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I offer weekday drop-in visits, typically between 9am and 4pm, for potty breaks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and medication administration. Whether you’re at work, traveling, or simply need an extra helping hand, I’m here to make sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I carefully follow all instructions, pay close attention to each pet’s unique needs, and provide updates and photos so you have peace of mind while you’re away.

This was my first time using rover and was nervous about it. I am so please with Marcia and how well she took care of my dog. I have nothing but great things to say and will absolutely use her again in the future. My fur baby loved her and was in great care the entire time.

We are thrilled with Rosa’s care for our dogs. She took on the big task of taking our energetic dogs outside to go potty then spent some time with them inside. We felt a sigh of relief after she sent her report with photos giving our pups an A+ for good behavior. We plan to book Rosa again.

I’ve only used Rover a few times, but whenever I do, I always book Caitlin. I was lucky to find her the very first time I tried the app. We have two rescue dogs, and one of them can be pretty anxious and temperamental. Caitlin is incredibly patient with our pups when we travel, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re in her care. Our dogs don’t warm up to many people, but they absolutely adore her. Highly recommend!

We appreciated Jennifer taking care of our cat! It was tough to find someone over the holidays with short notice, let alone, for a cat, and Jennifer was quick to respond and very attentive to my questions. She came to the house 2 times before our trip to meet the cat and get the key, and sent us picture updates while we were gone. As far as I can tell, Barkley the cat was happy and well taken care of! I'd recommend this service and will hopefully use Jennifer again!

Marcia is simply the best—there’s a reason we keep coming back to her again and again. Finding someone you trust with your pets (and your home) is no small thing, and with Marcia, that trust comes easily. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring, and it shows in every interaction.

Jessica is great. I have two cats and one of them is very shy and the other one is outgoing. They both loved her and I loved that in one of Jessica’s pictures. She actually got a picture of my shy cat rubbing up against her.😻 my cats are very good at judging good people

Sherry took care of our little kitty INCREDIBLY! Our kitty was struggling with a sickness and needed some additional support with wiping her nose and Sherry was more than happy to take care of her needs and she gave us consistent updates on our kitty’s symptoms while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter 😊

I met Michelle before she started watching my girls and I was sure we would get along. She loves animals and it shows immediately. She was great at letting me know how the cats were doing every visit and I loved the pics. Jill is a bit more shy but when she finally came out to meet who was feeding her it was all over for me. Jillie talking to me on a video sold me on Michele forever. I’ll be using her again. Thank you so much

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! :)
