Jodie was great!! Super attentive to detail and took great care of our pup. We got lots of pictures and communication from her the whole time, so we always felt connected with our fur baby back at home. Would book again!

Anita took excellent care of my cats and went above and beyond, offering to check on items that I hadn’t explicitly requested and even bringing food for them. She even helped me with some last minute requests which I really appreciated, and sent over plenty of pictures and videos of my babies. She is amazing!

Polina took time out of her busy schedule to come and meet my large dog to go over important walking and feeding procedure. She was so warm and loving, and put my anxious thoughts to rest when I saw her capabilities to confidently handle my large dog. We will be reoccurring clients, for sure!

David is great! He was incredibly quick to respond to the initial booking request, which made it easy to a relatively last-minute scheduling. He took great care of my cats, managing somewhat complex feeding process with medication. All visits were made on-time, and his updates were detailed, checking in on possible concerns we had discussed, and included lots of pictures that made it clear the cats were thrilled to have his attention and company. Cannot recommend him highly enough!

Sara did such a great job watching Lucy! Even at the meet and greet, she was attentive and took notes as I showed her my cat’s routine. She followed all directions perfectly and her detailed, thoughtful Rover Cards after each visit gave me peace of mind knowing how Lucy was doing while I was away. I’d absolutely have her back next time I go away. Thank you very much Sara!

About: As a calm and dependable caregiver, I’ve successfully helped two Chihuahuas and an Australian Blue Heeler peacefully coexist in one home. If I can manage that dynamic with patience, care, and consistency, your pet will be in great hands. I currently work from home while running my own cosmetics company, which gives me a highly flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, reliable, and consistent care for your pets throughout the day to late evenings. I believe pets thrive when they’re given both attention and healthy outlets for their energy. For dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks, park visits, and play sessions tailored to their comfort level and their owner’s preferences. If appropriate and approved, I’m comfortable supervising off leash time in safe fenced areas or open parks with well behaved pets. For cats, I make sure they receive patience, affection, and interactive play time so they stay stimulated, relaxed, and comfortable while their owner is away. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, cared for, and well rested by the time their family returns home.

Nicole really went above and beyond caring for our 3 (very needy and attention hungry!) cats. She was easy to communicate with and reliable, but what we appreciated the most was that she spent extra time beyond the minimum required by Rover hanging out with them. She sent plenty of updates with photos and videos letting us know they were in good hands, and even administered oral medication to one of our cats. We will definitely be reaching out to Nicole for future cat sitting as well as recommending her to anyone who needs care for their pets!

About: Hi, I'm Femke. A lifelong animal lover, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for friends, family, and neighbors for almost a decade. What started as a hobby quickly became something I couldn’t imagine not doing. Now, I’m excited to turn my passion for dogs into a full-time career, preparing for a degree in Cynology (dog behavior) next year. With hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I’ve developed a calm, patient, and intuitive approach. I’ve walked high-energy pups who need structure and stimulation, cared for seniors who require slower walks and medication, and provided companionship to anxious or shy dogs who just need someone gentle and understanding. I’m confident in handling leash reactivity, administering basic medications, and keeping routines consistent to help dogs feel safe and secure. My focus is always on building trust, so your dog feels comfortable with me, and fully enjoys the time we spend together. I’m studying part-time to prepare for my Cynology (dog behavior) degree next year, and have no other major commitments - your dog gets my full attention. My days revolve around walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, so I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and (most) holidays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I take the time to build trust with each dog, starting with a meet-and-greet to understand their routines, triggers, and preferences. During walks, I always use secure leashes and harnesses and stick to safe, familiar routes. I will not do off-leash unless in client-approved spaces and with your explicit consent. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain your routines, respect your space, and provide real-time updates with photos and notes, so you’re always in the loop. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your dog(s) the care and companionship they deserve.

Maide did a fantastic job taking care of our cat Kiwi. She brought enthusiasm and thoughtfulness in caring for her. When we came back, the food and litter box areas were very clean. And Maide left great, detailed updates with lots of good pictures that were always a highlight to look at. We look forward to booking Maide again!

We loved receiving the clear updates, photos, and videos she sent throughout the trip—it gave us total peace of mind. We will absolutely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic pet sitter!

Highly recommend Natalie for kitty-sitting. She is thorough, attentive, and somehow won over my ultra-shy kitty! I received updates and tons of pictures of Natalie cleaning litter, refilling food and water, and playing with the kitties. She also went above and beyond to accommodate a key handoff while I was out of town. Thank you Natalie!!

Cameron has done drop in visits for my 2 cats twice now and it’s been very good. My cats both like her which is not always the case for them. She gives updates and always accommodates any requests I have. She has also brought in packages for me and cleans around the litter box and food bowls which is nice. I’d definitely recommend Cameron and book again

David has watched our cats couple of times now - most recently this past Friday, July 10th—and we cannot recommend him highly enough. He takes incredible care of our cats, ensuring they are happy, comfortable, and well-attended to every single visit. Beyond being a fantastic pet sitter, David is exceptionally observant and proactive with home care. During a previous visit, he noticed a few fruit flies starting to appear in the kitchen and, on his own initiative, set up an apple cider vinegar trap. Because of his quick thinking, the issue was caught early and completely managed by the time we got home. It is rare to find a sitter who is equally dedicated to the well-being of your pets and the maintenance of your home. We always return to very happy cats and a perfectly kept house. If you are looking for someone responsible, proactive, and genuinely caring, hire David!
