“Krissy was WONDERFUL!! We have a pup that can take a little bit to warm up to you - Krissy came over twice before our trip to meet Lucy and for them to get comfortable. She sent us tons of pictures and kept us up to date on how Lucy was doing while we were away! Lucy absolutely loved Krissy!! We will be working with Krissy again in the future for our next trip!”
“Stephanie is sweet and caring, with a true passion for animals. She was absolutely wonderful with my dog. Upon meeting her and seeing her interact with my pup, I was immediately put at ease about leaving him in her care. Her dog training experience was evident. Would recommend and use again!”
About: I am lifelong pet owner and animal lover with three years of experience as a dog walker. I have volunteered at an animal shelter where I provided daily enrichment and care to dogs, cleaning cages, kennels, serving meals and fresh water, and providing exercise and playtime. I love all animals and I can’t wait to help take care of your fur baby! I am available to walk your dogs or to visit your home to take care of your pets Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM-2:00 PM. I have a fenced in yard so my dogs can run and play. I walk my dogs every day and always take a new route as if we are on a new adventure.
“Rachel is wonderful :) My two rescues can be quite reactive and skittish to just about any change in lifestyle. She's more than willing to jump right in & find what works for everyone. I will be using her as a regular sitter from here on out!”
“Ana was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond in taking care of my cat while I was away on vacation. I would absolutely recommend her to others and plan to request her again next time I travel!”
About: New customers get $20 off first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/tinay36247 I've had two dogs, three cats and worked at a non-profit animal shelter for a number of years. I love animals of all kinds and am excited to take care of your family member! I generally only take one furry friend at a time so that they get my unlimited attention, however, if from same family, I can take more than one. Please message me. During the weekends, I am always at home and around the neighborhood. We have several great dog parks around the neighborhood. If you do not see any available days, please message me and I will be glad to work with you! My schedule can be flexible and adjusted to suit your needs. I have a fenced in backyard and will be sure to always be available to play with and accompany your pet. I will send pictures and videos to update you while you are away. I am responsible and can administer medication if needed. I would love to meet with you and your pet(s) first before you make a decision on a sitter. During that time, we can discuss all of your pet's needs, eating schedule, bathroom schedule, etc...No play will be unsupervised.
“We love Jayda and will definitely be using her again! She was so great with our girl, took her on walks and sent us lots of pics through out the visit- which made us feel so comfortable! Absolutely recommend!”
“This is the first time we've used Rover and previously always had the benefit of a family member to watch Cinni when away. With only a couple of weeks, we suddenly needed to find an alternative. After scouring reviews on Rover we contacted Lisa M, who very fortunately for us was available. Lisa M arrived promptly at the schedule time each day to care for Cinni and provided thorough updates that quickly set our minds at ease and provided us with some great photos of our kitty. Furthermore, Lisa M was able to successfully medicate Cinni each visit, and those cat owners whose pets require medication know how challenging this can be. Based on our experience enthusiastically recommend Lisa M for anyone else who needs a cat sitter and will be contacting her as soon as I schedule our next trip to ensure she is available to care for Cinni.”
About: We are a family of dog lovers! My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and though we don’t have pets currently, our love of dogs keeps us pet sitting and dog walking around our neighborhood. We have 3 young children who absolutely adore dogs, and love taking responsibility in taking care of them when we are pet sitting. We have a lot of snuggles to give your pups, and lots of walks to take them on, too! I am a stay at home mom so our schedule is pretty flexible! We are up early, and outside often. Any timing should be fine for us to work around. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby. We can play fetch with your pup, give them lots of snuggles, and plenty of walks!
About: Lifelong dog lover with experience caring for pups of all sizes—providing daily affection, exercise and tailored attention to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. I have two dogs of my own (one chihuahua and one english bulldog) so I have experience with low and high maintenance fur babies. I'm currently volunteering at a local shelter catering to dogs of all sizes! I currently have a hybrid schedule, which means I'm home half of the week and usually free on the weekends! I'm already a dog mom of two so my dogs' routine is like second nature to me. I have a dog-friendly home including a fenced-in backyard, with tons of space for your pups to roam safely. My neighborhood is extremely dog friendly and I'm only 2 blocks from a park for longer walks!
About: I've taken care of cats since I was little. I have experience of 21 years taking care of my cat but I also have experience with drop in visits for my friends and neighbors cats. No litterbox scare me ! I'm currently working full time in the call center. I have time on the morning before work and afternoon after 5pm. Currently I can't have a cat due to my living accomodations and that's why I would love to help other cat lovers to take care of their cats I know that each cat is different. I always try to read characters of the cats I'm taking care of and I'm always careful with doors to prevent any unauthorized cat field trips.
“Lauryn was so nice and attentive to feeding my cat and fish. She always kindly asked if there was anything more she should do, and communicated with me every day to tell me when she was going to stop by. She always took pictures of the food she refilled during each visit. Thank you Lauryn!”
“Hannah was such a great pal to our cat Jeffrey while we were away! She is very communicative and responsible, and we’ll definitely be contacting her for pet sitting next time we go out of town.”

Samantha R.
“Wonderful! I’m so thankful to find a person so efficient and attentive to the individual needs of both of my elderly cats. I highly recommend her!”
Caroline E.
“Caroline is the definition of a responsible, loving, and trustworthy dog caregiver. As a devoted dog mom to Frank and Colette for over eight years, she’s experienced it all from puppy energy to senior dog TLC and handles it with patience, care, and a great sense of humor. She’s the kind of person who plans her day around her dogs’ routines, knows every park within a 10-block radius, and somehow always has a treat or poop bag on hand. Beyond being a true animal lover, Caroline is attentive, communicative, and incredibly reliable qualities any pet parent would be lucky to find in a sitter. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Caroline is your person. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup in her care!”

Michael was great! I was out of town and my mom needed assistance getting my squirrely little cat into his carrier for a vet appointment. Michael showed up on time and did a great job handling my little guy. He had him in his carrier in no time. Really appreciated his help in this!
Meghan is an exceptional pet sitter who consistently delivers high-quality services. Although she is relatively new to Rover, her growing client base and high retention rate speak to her dedication and expertise. My family is eager to book her services again, having been thoroughly impressed by her thorough cleaning of my chinchillas' cage and surrounding area. Meghan's attention to detail is noteworthy, and her warm demeanor makes her a joy to work with. Her prices are reasonable, and her commitment to providing top-notch care is evident in everything she does. I highly recommend booking Meghan for your pet-sitting needs.
Alexis is wonderful!!!! Trustworthy, friendly, and amazing with animals! Alexis watched my kitties when I was away in Europe for a week and I was completely at peace knowing she was watching my fur babies. She was thoughtful and mindful of what my cats needed and kept me updated with each visit with adorable photos! She also took wonderful care of my home and cleaned up the areas around the cat litter. Anyone would be lucky to have Alexis watch their animals. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you Alexis 🤍
