“Fabiana was wonderful with our cat-Stich. She took great care of him, attentive, caring, and reliable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted pet sitter. - Diana N”
“Caring, professional, and trustworthy! Usually, when I am gone, my dog doesn't eat regularly so I knew I had a great sitter when my pup did. I feel Stephani has a true love for dogs and feel very reassured that I know my dog is in good hands. I am already signed up for another booking!”
“Adare took great care of my cats while I was away! She was very attentive, communicative, and patient (especially with my shy girl Pinky). I would absolutely recommend Adare and would rebook in a heartbeat!”
“Alice was great! We were in town for spring break and had a day planned that required pup stay back. Loved being able to use rover on vacation. Alice took Jocko for a walk, playtime and sent sweet pics!”
“Katherine did an excellent job. She was very communicative, followed all instructions perfectly, and made sure the cats' area was always nice and tidy. Would highly recommend!”
“Becca was an amazing dog sitter! From the start, our dogs took right to her, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire time, keeping us updated and sending lots of pictures so we could see how happy and comfortable they were. It’s clear she genuinely cares and connects well with animals. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Sadie was great with my cats. She spent time with them and noticed that one of my cats seemed sad. She kept in touch with me via texted and sent me pictures without me asking. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking since high school and have always loved being around animals. I grew up with a dog that I miss very much, so getting to spend time with pets is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities! I work on the weekdays, so I’m available for evening walks and pet care during the week anytime after 4 pm. I have open availability on the weekends. I know how it feels to have a pet you love and adore. I will follow any and all owner directions closely, pay attention during walks to be sure your pets are taken care of!
“As a repeat customer of Averi's, I always know that my dog will be well taken care of. She is reliable, good at keeping me updated, and genuinely cares about my dog. Your pet will be in good hands with Averi. I will definitely continue to have her be my Rover go-to choice!”
“Was out first time using Rover and Parker made all our worries go out the door. Extremely helpful and nice he made it know he had extensive experience with animals and could not of asked for a more professional and friendly sitter”
“Connor was so helpful taking care of my cats! He payed special attention to all of the instructions, medications, special prescription food, etc. He gave my cats cuddles & sent photos of them together. I definitely recommend!”
“Kelsey D. cared for my five cats while I was out of town for 3 weeks. She did a great job and made friends with them all even the young ones who are generally the first to hide from someone they don't know. She sent me daily updates and pictures. They all greeted me at the door the day I came home--healthy and happy!! I would recommend Kelsey as a pet sitter and hope to bring her back when I travel in the future. She even watered my plants!”
“Katrina is the best! She is my go to sitter to check in on my cats when I am out of town because I know they are in great hands. Even my shyest kitty has warmed up to her! She also sends the cutest photos and great updates. :)”
“Rebecca was totally awesome with my 4 dogs. It was great knowing they were in such good hands while we were out of town. I especially loved getting all the pictures every day to see just how well they were doing. I'd highly recommend Rebecca for any pet sitting you need.”

Adele took care of my two cats for two weeks while I was out of the country. She communicated very well with me and sent lots of great pictures! My boys were calm and happy when I got back, which shows she did a great job making them comfortable and playing with them! If I go back out of town I will definitely reach out to Adele again!
