“Julie is amazing! Another trip taken knowing our sweet boy was in good hands. A trip with two littles is fun with a touch of hectic but Julie’s wonderful, descriptive updates full of adorable pictures keep me so relieved that our Buzzy (our cute, old man kitty) is all good getting spoiled back home! Our sweet boy needs nightly meds. If you are in need for someone to take care of your sweet baby with any med needs, she’s your girl! Thankful we have her as our trusted sitter!”

“Hannah took the best care of our two dogs. The updates she sent always made us feel good that the dogs were in her hands. One of our dogs is very anxious and seemed to warm up to her very quickly. We will definitely be booking with her in the future! Thanks Hannah (:”

“Do not hesitate to schedule Angela to care for your pet while away from home. Rover was highly suggested when I needed help w my cat while away for the holidays. Normally I can rely on others, however, a daily dose of oral medicine was required; I felt better knowing Angela was responsible to make sure it was given each day. Glad I met Angela, she will be my first choice next time.”

“I felt very comfortable and trusted Alexandra to take care of my pets! She is so sweet and responsive and gave great updates and pictures. Will definitely be using again next time!”


“Barbara was fantastic! She was incredibly reliable and took great care of Murphy while we were out of town. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Murphy was safe, happy, and well cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter.”

“Cameron was great with my cats! They took care of the fury beasts and made sure that my house was safe when I was out of town. They always wrote super comprehensive reports on the visit and posted many pictures. The cats also loved them. I could see the cats getting along with them better with each visit. I will definitely ask Cameron for help next time!”

“Paige took great care of Oreo! She was happy and healthy when I came home, and I got pictures while I was gone. Paige was great at communicating and asking questions when needed. Definitely recommend!”

“Donovan was awesome. He was so caring to our sweet kitty while we were away. He took care of cat litter cleanings, food, water, and took time to earn her trust and give lots of pets and cuddles. He even went above and beyond and pulled in our trash can from the curb and got our mail without even being asked! We will definitely be repeat customers. :)”

“Kallie enjoyed herself and was well-cared for at Molly’s home. We received text messages and photos most days keeping us up-to-date regarding her care. Molly responded quickly to our questions. She is very sweet and an obvious dog lover. We plan to request Molly again for our next trip.”

About: Hi! I’ve used to take care of my own pets for years, and recently got the opportunity to help friends and neighbors with their pet sitting needs. I’m ready to help you with anything you need to make sure your furry friend doesn’t feel lonely when you are not around. I am a momma of 2, working towards my goal of becoming a certified nurse one day. I was raised in California where I lived for many years and relocated recently to Missouri with my family. I prefer to offer my services at the pet’s house, that way the poor animals don’t have to deal with the stress of being in a stranger’s house while wondering where are their families.
About: I have more than 20 years of experiencing caring for dogs and ensuring their happiness and wellbeing. From large to small, I love them all. I currently have a Newfoundland and a Labrador. I am comfortable giving medications to any pets who may need them. I work from home and therefore available to spend as much time with your pet or in your home as may be preferred. My schedule is highly flexible and I strive to be accommodating. I aim to treat everyone's home as if it were my own and will try my best to leave it cleaner and im better shape than before my arrival.
“Jennifer took great care of my cat with drop in visits while I was out of town. I really appreciated that she came over to meet me and my cat before starting the service. I am new to Rover so it made me feel more comfortable getting to meet her first so I appreciated her taking the extra time to do that. She sent me daily updates throughout the service to let me know how my cat was doing. Jennifer did extra by washing my cat’s food bowls, vacuuming around the litter box, and took time to play with her and give her extra attention. I would definitely book services again with Jennifer and recommend her to others.”

“Such a great experience with kirsten and was very comforting knowing how good of care she was taking of Oakley. Sent a bunch of photos and Oakley looked very happy and comfortable.”
