“A very kind and attentive person. She gave my cat her full attention and affection! The daily “card” with the pictures assured me that all was well. And she added a special touch on the last day.”

“Shelly was fantastic with Nightwing and Turdle! She took care of all of their needs and even confirmed Nightwing was in his room when our evening sitter (my partners mom) was unable to locate him. She kept us updated on all of his mood changes as well as was able to get our half outdoor/indoor cat Turdle in! She really trusted her to be able to do that, which was fantastic for only meeting her a few times! ♡♡♡ Will absolutely be booking with her again when we're out of town for a few days!!!”

“Sarah did a GREAT job taking care of my cats. She established a bond very quickly. Twice a day visits sure helped! They were well taken care of, e.g brushed, fed, liter cleaned, and area around the liter box and dishes were kept clean. Sarah also kept me well informed, which I sincerely appreciated. Thank you, Sarah!”

“She was absolutely amazing with my kitties! I was a bit nervous to have someone watch them since I’ve never done that before and didn’t know how the kitties would react but she did great! I got lots of pictures and even some videos everyday and she made sure to keep me updated on how they’re doing. If you’re looking for someone to watch your precious pets book with her! ?”

“Lauren is awesome! She did an amazing job as always! She sent us photos every visit. Every morning of our trip, we had photos of our fur babies to look forward to. We had peace of mind that they were happy and well cared for. Our cats trust Lauren and feel comfortable hanging out with her. Thank you for caring for our babies!”

“Gail took great care of my two cats! I appreciated the photos and daily updates. And the apartment looked even better than when I left. I would definately reach out to Gail again the next time I need a cat sitter!”

“You will not find a better cat sitter than Amber! She gives our pets so much love and attention. I cannot say enough about how helpful and thoughtful she is. Amber always goes above and beyond for us!”

“Megan was incredible! This was my first experience with Rover and she made it very easy for me. I was booking within 3 days of when I needed Franklin to be boarded and not only was she quick to respond but she was able to look after him too! She watched him for five days and was very flexible so when I was unable to get home at a decent hour, she was able to watch him until the next day so I could pick him up. Franklin is a kitten with seemingly endless energy and it looked like she was able to get him to calm down. Megan also gave me updates on Franklin every day so I could be at ease that he was doing well. Overall, Megan was excellent and I will definitely check in with her first when I need a pet sitter!”


“Ray took really good care of our cat, Nutella! She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up and seemed to really like being there. He was also accomodating and sent daily updates with photos! Thank you Ray!”

“Shaune was amazing with our two kitties! She even got our timid kitty to come out, and he never comes out of his hiding spot for strangers! Shaune was very communicative and we felt very comfortable that our boys were very well taken care of. We will rebook Shaune every time we need a Rover!”

“Sheila was amazing! She took such good care of my girls and continued to update me throughout my whole trip! It was the first time I felt comfortable leaving and would definitely book her again!!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life! I have a senior Chihuahua who I’ve raised since she was a puppy, so I understand the needs of both young and senior pets. I’ve also cared for cats (including kittens), and I have pet sat for family members’ dogs, from a young Great Pyrenees and an energetic Australian Shepherd to a playful Beagle and a tiny Pomeranian. Beyond dogs and cats, I have experience with fish tanks, birds, turtles, and even chickens, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I’m responsible, reliable, and truly dedicated to making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Right now, my schedule is very flexible, which means I’m available most days and times throughout the week. Whether it’s a morning walk, mid-day drop-in, or evening sitting, I can easily adjust to fit your pet’s routine. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay relaxed and comfortable in their own environment. I carefully follow all owner instructions and keep to the pet’s usual routine. I always ensure doors and gates are securely closed, pets are leashed during walks, and homes are treated with respect. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I use the animals as motivation, being able to get up and seeing a happy, smiling, energetic pet is heart melting. I’m willing to walk and or house sit your pet. I have pets of my own and know what the bond is like. Animals are lime humans they have feelings and you don’t want to leave someone who’s like a child or sibling alone. That’s where I come in to be that extra support and learn to love and bond with your pet. I’m available at any time and can be flexible, working on your time and schedule. I’m currently in college and attend ferris state university to be a social worker. I’m all smiles and joy when it comes to working with and in the community. 😁
About: Caring for dogs has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve looked after the pets of friends and family over the years, gaining plenty of hands-on experience along the way. My love for animals means your dog will always be well-cared for, stimulated, and treated like my own. I’m a full time student at NYU, but have a super flexible schedule and can meet with your precious pet any time of the day! I take pet safety seriously and always make sure any space a pet is in is safe, clean, and comfortable. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, from feeding schedules to walking routines, and treat every pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. Your pet’s comfort and well-being always come first.
About: Working in an animal shelter has well equipped me to work with and adequately care for many types of dogs. Alongside this, I've had pets in my home all my life. I have an open availability that allows me to spend as much time needed with your pet. I love working with animals and would love to help you in any way possible. I have an attention to detail and can properly follow all guidelines given on how to best care for your furry companions needs! Whether that be feeding, walking, playing, or medicating I've got you covered.
About: I have lived on a farm all my life with pigs, cows, sheep, rabbits and poultry and I have 2 dogs of my own, and 2 cats also. I love to play and snuggle with them and I have been told before I am like the animal whisper and have this nurturing effect with any and all animals of various temperaments. I am a high energy person, but I can also be mellow and adjust well to any breed or any activity level. I have delt with puppies and elder animals of many species. I have no problem walking with your loved pet. I will make sure to make sure pets are treated like one of my own. It would be as if you and your family never left. I’m primarily available on weekends and occasionally during the week, depending on my work schedule, which can be flexible most of the time. My husband also works from home and helps care for our pets when I’m away, so he’s available to assist with pet care during longer stays or daytime needs. Together, we ensure that your pets are never left without attention and care. If you’re planning a trip or need a sitter during the week, feel free to reach out—I’ll do my best to accommodate! At home, our pets are truly part of the family. We have a fenced yard and a 30-foot tie-out that allows for safe outdoor time and supervised play. Our dogs are fed twice a day, enjoy afternoon playtime, and go for evening walks to stay active and happy. We also have two indoor cats, Oliver and Nala, who are both well-adjusted to sharing their space with dogs. Oliver is curious and enjoys joining us on walks in his pet stroller. He loves the sights and sounds of the outdoors! Nala, on the other hand, prefers the comfort of staying indoors, and we fully respect her boundaries. We never force our animals to do anything they’re uncomfortable with and always tailor our care to meet each pet’s unique personality and needs. Visiting pets will receive the same thoughtful, loving care just like one of our own!
“We’ve had such a great experience with Elizabeth. She’s prompt, kind, and overall amazing to work with. Our senior cat needs medication, and she handles it so well. She provides updates and has given us so my relief knowing our cat is in great hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was born, they are family and truly mean so much to me, I enjoy my time with all animals. Looking for a job that will allow me to have time to study for school as well. Also, will allow me to get my daily steps in with your fur babies. It would be very helpful if you let me know what your dog likes to play with, what times they eat, etc so we can make sure there having the best time.
“Madeleine D. is our first choice when we leave town. They are always very good to our dogs and treats them as their own. I will always book with Madeleine for those reasons and more. 15 out of 10!”

“Emily was able to provide a drop in visit for my dog with a day notice and was willing to do a meet and greet prior. She was very responsible following all directions of arriving and leaving and was very loving with Aurora. She provided a wonderful description of how the visit went with pictures of Aurora. Would book again and would recommend Emily! Thanks!”
