“We used Lisa for drop in care while camping and she took amazing care of our rabbit and sent tons of photos to ease our minds while gone. She kept his pen nice and tidy and gave him free roam time so he could stretch his legs. We’d definitely use Lisa again and recommend her for anyone looking for a bunny sitter!”
“This was my first experience with Rover and I was anxious about leaving my two cats with a new sitter. Hannah gave them very good care and was good about keeping me updated, including pictures of my boys. I would not hesitate to ask her to come again.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with 2 husky mixes and 3 cats in my childhood home and I currently have 1 cattle dog and 2 cats. I also had the pleasure of house sitting for a few families consistently while they were away on vacations. I work early mornings so I have plenty of the daylight to spend time with your dogs! I’m available after 1pm to do daily walks, checks ins, and will have hours available for boarding. I have a fully fenced in yard and a 2 year old cattle dog that loves to make friends and play but also understands boundaries. I have a cat as well but I have a two story house so she can be separated from your dog if need be! I can easily crate your dog if needed as well. I am very flexible and accommodating to whatever your fur baby needs to feel comfortable and safe.
“Krystle was wonderful with Scarlet. During the meet and greet, you can tell how good she is with animals. Scarlet lived her. She took pictures to show us how well Scarlet was doing and gave updates. We will definitely book Krystle again when we need someone for Scarlet!”
“Gabrielle was the best. It was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was prompt and took amazing care of my cats including my girl with special needs. Gabrielle had great communication throughout and took some of the cutest photos.”
About: I’ve been handling my personal dogs since I’ve been 5 years old. Family members have also relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their animals. I’m currently working a part-time job throughout the week for a few hours. However, I have free time throughout the day and afternoon where I can take care of your animals! I have a very large back yard. I can provide water, treats, crating, and whatever accommodations you need for me to provide in your home.
“Anita did a great job with my cats on her first booking with me. My cats are seniors and they appeared happy and healthy when we arrived home. Anita was very conscientious of what needed to be done for them and followed through with no problems. She sent awesome updates daily. I would highly recommend Anita for your cat care!”
About: I've taken care of a wide variety of dogs, as well as have been involved in dog shows, AKC pedigree events, canine good citizen training, and am patient with dogs while being tolerant to their antics. I am pretty flexible as I can wake up early, take care over my lunch, and late at night as well as I stay up late. I am careful but easy going with pets. I follow details for feeding, hygiene, and medication if needed. I require a meet and greet before providing services, to ensure I can properly handle the needs of your pet, as well as your pet getting along with me -- as you never know who they may like or dislike -- and want to ensure safety and proper care is given. I will record details of feeding, hygiene and medication to ensure I am consistent on their needs.
“Margaret went above and beyond for our pup! She took great care of her while we were away, made sure to send us plenty of updates and pictures, and we can’t thank her enough! Margaret was beyond flexible and so accommodating, especially when we had car trouble and couldn’t meet her when initially planned. We feel that she took care of our dog, just as if she were one of her own and we will definitely book with her again!”
“Excellent attention to details, willing to accommodate me when I booked the wrong date, dropped what she was doing & headed over to care for my babies while I was out of town. 10/10 would recommend Sarah to anyone!!!”
About: I’ve had a dog since the minute I was born and love them! I have had experience checking in on neighbors animals and keeping them safe and healthy! I currently work as a nurse and am looking to get some more steps to my daily count! I’m currently working days until 3 pm, but will be switching to evenings starting at 3pm. My schedule is flexible and I do not work everyday. Halfway through July I will be starting work at 3pm and available in the mornings. I will walk your dog according to your directions. I will use collar and leash provided to create the best environment for your dog! I can also do drop in visits to let your dog out according to your instructions.
“Rachel is the best sitter ever! One of my us is a VERY fearful dog and she worked with him until he was comfortable with her. Plus made all the visits and took so very good care of my pets through this terrible ice, snow, and single digits crazy weather in (along with the electricity going on and off) nashvile had this year over Christmas!! I was so fearful about leaving my pups to go on our out of state trip and she ended up being a lifesaver!!! Thank you Rachel you are truly the best!!!!”
About: I have always loved animals. I grew up taking care of dogs and now that I have moved away from home, I found that I love watching other's pets. I have experience watching my friends and families pets, which gave me a lot of experience caring for different breeds of dogs, ranging from smaller to bigger dogs. I have the patience and experience to make your dog feel safe and cared for. I am currently enrolled in college and I have time in between classes for pet care and most of my nights after 3:00pm are mostly open. During the summer months, I am very flexible because I work part time and get to pick my hours for work. I do not have a problem with the pet being free roaming throughout the apartment while I am there, but I can use a crate if thats what the owner is more comfortable with. While taking the pet outside, I will always put them on a leash because I do not have a fenced in yard. I am pretty flexible with how the owner wants the pet to be cared for, as long as that is communicated in advance.
About: I’ve grown up raising 2 toy poodles from my childhood. Now as an adult I recently adopted my first dog of my own, Mabel, who is a 1yr old lab! I also have horses, so have been around all sorts of animals my whole life. Love any and all sizes and breeds of pups! I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and can do last minute/short notice requests no problem! If you need me to spend a little more time with your pet, I can easily bring my work computer with me. I would treat your home as my own. Follow any/all rules you may have as well as rules for your pet. My dog is crate trained when away so I am comfortable having anything to do around crating.

Kaitlyn M.
“Kaitlyn is a fantastic pet parent. And would make an even better pet sitter. I’ve known Kaitlyn over 10 years now, and one of the very first things I learned about her was her love for all animals. Whether her own, mine or a random strangers off the street. She has 2 cats and more recently, adopted the sweetest dog, all of whom she places needs before her own. She spends hours training her dog with the patience of a saint and yhe utmost love. Which is no surprise because she treats all animals like they are her own. She is always more excited to see my pets than she is me. She is a pet lover through and through. The amount of love, time and effort she puts into animal care is completely unmatched. Kaitlyn also finds staying up to date with vaccines, annual bet visits and exercise of great importance. Finally, Kaitlyn truly believes that pets are a part of our lives for such a short time, they deserve all of the love, kindness and attention. Because of these traits, i know Kaitlyn would make absolute best pet sitter for anyone, putting their pets needs above all else.”
