“Kristin was so kind and helped us out last minute with a walk for our senior dog while we were out at a concert! Kristin was super communicative and came just when she said she would. Thank you so much, Kristin! Would definitely ask her again.”
About: I started caring for dogs and cats when I was 8 years old, watching my neighbors pets when they were away. My college degree in Animal Science taught me the background information needed to care for medically complex animals, such as dogs with diabetes or cats with FeLV or FIV. I have experience administering injections, giving pills, wound care, and other medical treatment. If you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter to care for your beloved friend, look no further! I work remotely and can spend as much time with your pet as you need. On the weekends I have even more flexibility! Any time you need someone to take care of your pet, I’ll be available. I take safety very seriously and take precautions to ensure the safety of your pet and my own safety. When I first meet your pet, I introduce myself very slowly and pay close attention to body language. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I always double check locks while entering the home and leaving to ensure that no strangers can enter and no pets can get out.
About: I am an animal lover and long time dog owner. I am currently living in an apartment which does not allow pets. I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your fur baby behind while traveling or for a long day at work or play. I would like to provide for you the peace of mind required to relax and know your pet is under the very best care. My work schedule is very flexible. I am available most days, evenings and overnighters if need be. My weekends are also open for scheduling purposes. I am unable to care for pets at my apartment but I am more than happy to care for your pets in their own environment in your home. Your pet will remain comfortable and confident in your absence because they will continue to have their comforts of home.

“Kathy and John were amazing! It was my first time using Rover so I was nervous about leaving my cat home alone while on vacation, but he was in great hands. I received multiple photos from each visit, and when I had questions or requests John and Kathy responded quickly. Cat was happy too :) Would definitely book with Kathy and John again.”

Erin even took on watering our plant we forgot about until the day we were leaving. We will definitely rebook and would recommend her to anyone asking!”
“Lee Ann gave her best however our dogs are used to family handling them 24x7 and so they were highly uncooperative. She made progress however they are very tough customers. Need to add another appointment to allow familiarization and trust building. She is confident that she will be able to take care of them but I am nervous based on their behavior and stubbornness- typical chows.”

“Olivia is a wonderful sitter. We have 4 cats and used the drop-in service for the time we were away. Olivia was great. She sent pics every visit and gave a brief update. She cleaned up for us and even took care of our bearded dragon! It was a great relief knowing we can leave the cats at home in their familiar space without having to board them when we go away. Thanks Olivia!!”

Couldn’t have asked for better care!”

Deal cat parents share their Rover experiences
Stephanie is a fantastic cat sitter! She was flexible with her schedule and accommodated me super last minute. She replies super promptly and put my mind at ease with precious photos and detailed updates. She is extremely attentive, and took excellent care of my baby. She has my highest recommendation.
Rebecca was amazing! My cat can be anxious around strangers, and I was super nervous using rover for the first time, but she was so fantastic (with both of us). I couldn’t have asked for someone better. I will definitely be going back to Rebecca anytime I need someone to drop in my cat.
Courtney provided food and water for our shy outdoor cat when we were away for a week. This is the second time we have used her services. Courtney is patient, reliable, and consistent, and as a result our cat Rocky has gotten to know her and become comfortable with her. He eats his meals instead of running away and hiding. With Courtney, I am confident that he's taken care of when my wife and I are away. I highly recommend her!
