“Angela did a wonderful job watching our dog. She came 3 times a day for walks and feeding. We could tell that Leine was well taken care of. Definitely will use Angela and River again.”
“Stephanie was amazing to Kiko and Mika! They warmed up to her fairly quick as they usually hide from strangers. Will definitely hit up Stephanie again when traveling! Thank you so much!”
“Erin is always so wonderful with our greyhound Happy. She is kind and professional. I appreciate that she responds quickly and is often willing to help with short notice. Happy loves having Erin visit and take her for walk, feed her, and give her love and attention. I can confidently recommend Erin.”
“Ann is just great with my Cat, Addison. She is a great communicator and love the pictures. Make me feel better about being away because I know Ann is entertaining Addison and being fed and the litter box. I have used Ann for a while now and I would not use anyone else. Thank you Ann for all that you do. It is nice to see how my cat is bonding with with Ann. And that is something if you know my cat :-)”
“Amanda is great! She is quick to respond to messages, on time for her visits, and overall easy to work with. She followed my instructions beautifully. My puppy really seemed to like her and so did my three cats! I will be hiring her again. Thanks Amanda!”
“John was wonderful with our energetic boxer puppy! I highly recommend him. When we came home, she greeted us with excitement and love as usual. Then she ran around our house looking for her new friend, John!”
“second time requesting sam to babysit my rabbit and she never fails to impress me. she cleaned the cage everyday and hand fed my rabbit. i will definitely book again in the future! thank you so much!”
“I’d give Ashton 10/5 stars if I could… this was my first time booking with her and I honestly could not be more impressed with her updates, communication, and problem solving. Thank you, thank you, Ashton!”
“Veronika is trustworthy, gentle, and genuine. She notices subtle changes in our dog’s behavior, at times even before we do. She has taken on recurring visits 3x/week since he was a puppy and he is happier and calmer because of her time and influence. I trust her with my animals even more than family/friends because she truly has taken the time to really learn their behaviors (and love on them). Can not more highly recommend her.”
“Tracy such a sweet person, she always takes such good care of buddy and I am very fortunate to have found her through this app. She has been a huge help for me with my very hectic work schedule.”
About: I’m a passionate and reliable pet lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve had four dogs of my own, including my current puppy, so I understand the energy, attention, and patience that younger dogs require. I’ve also cared for two senior dogs with health issues, which taught me how to provide gentle, attentive care and manage more complex needs with compassion. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve walked dogs for neighbors and friends and have experience caring for pets in their homes. I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, extra playtime, or calm, attentive care, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially during the summer when I’m home from college and able to make it my main focus. I have a very flexible schedule and can plan my day around each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or check ins. Because this is my primary commitment over the summer, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stay consistent with their routines, and be available for a variety of times throughout the day. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you can feel confident your pet is getting the care and attention they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and needs to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, so they can stay in a familiar environment. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also keeping their space clean and secure. Across all services, I focus on clear communication, dependability, and treating every pet like my own, whether that means energetic playtime for puppies or gentle, attentive care for senior dogs.
“Anna has been amazing to coordinate with and scheduling drop in visits on our 4 month old puppy during our long work days. She is excellent with communicating with us and has made us feel completely safe with entrusting the care of our puppy to her. We will continue to use Anna for our future pet care needs.”
“Melanie is awesome! She and our cat Ruxin got along great. Melanie went above and beyond when caring for our pet and the daily updates definitely made us feel like our cat was in good hands.”
“Juliana took great care of my kitty while I was away. She arrived when needed, took care of the basics (food, water, litter) and pampered my cat (lots of brushing, which my cat loves). Thanks so much, Juliana! :)”
About: I specialize in reliable morning pet care that fits busy work and school schedules. I’m available weekdays from 9 AM to 12 PM, which makes me a great fit for mid-morning dog walks, drop-in visits, and consistent weekly routines. I’m especially good at caring for dogs who need calm, patient handling and a steady routine. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort, and safety, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’m also comfortable with senior pets who may need a slower pace, extra patience, or medication reminders (as directed by the owner). I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and not rushed during visits. What sets me apart is that I focus on consistency and trust—many pets do best with the same walker on a regular schedule, and I aim to build that long-term relationship with both pets and owners. Pet care fits into my routine during weekday mornings from 9 AM to 12 PM, which is my dedicated availability window. During this time, I focus on dog walking and drop-in visits, making it easy for pet owners who need help while they are at work or busy with the day. I plan my schedule around consistency, so I can provide regular weekly visits for the same pets whenever possible. This helps animals feel more comfortable and keeps their routine stable. I’m organized and reliable, so I make sure I always arrive on time and give each pet full attention without rushing between visits. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. My focus is always on safety, trust, and following each owner’s instructions exactly. I make sure doors, leashes, and gates are secure at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. During visits, I supervise pets closely, especially during walks, feeding, or outdoor time. I respect each home and keep everything clean and organized, including cleaning up after pets during walks or drop-in visits. I also pay attention to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate immediately with the owner if something seems off. I understand that trust is very important when entering someone’s home, so I am responsible, respectful, and careful with both the pet and the property.
“Julie is so great to work with. We had a complex case with a pup having a recent broken leg, and everything went well. We immediately felt confident and comfortable having Julie in our home while we were away!”
“Jessica was wonderful! Super great with communication, very sweet, and took really great care of our kitties and especially at late notice! We’re really glad to work with her and will be using her again soon! Thank you Jessica!! 🩷”

Darien cat parents share their Rover experiences
Megan is the best! She has watched our two dogs, two cats and leopard gecko multiple times. She is super reliable, very communicative, and just a delight with the animals. My only hesitation in writing this review is that she will book up and won’t be available for our numerous last minute requests!
As always, Veronika went above and beyond for our boy. He recently got diagnosed with asthma, and before this trip, since she previously had not worked with an asthma kitty, she came over to learn how to give our cat his inhaler, and from what I have heard, he tolerated her giving him his inhaler twice a day very well. She is always so gentle with him and he loves her!
We hired Anna to care for our cat while we were on vacation and she exceeded our expectations! She was very easy to work with, very trustworthy and professional, and very communicative. Anna sent us daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind that our cat was in good hands, and she took the time to make our cat felt comfortable while we were away. I would definitely recommend Anna if you are looking for a reliable and experienced pet sitter!
