“We are repeat clients of Linda’s and we love having her look after our elderly cat when we leave town. She goes above and beyond and I know he’s getting love and attention when we are away! Highly recommend Linda!!”

About: Growing up I cared for a lab, Shar Pei, Boxer, Yorkie, and Jack Russell. I have decided to join Rover because in December I dog sat for 2 dogs for a week and when they went home I felt like a little piece of me was missing. I work 7 hours a day M-F. I have full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. M-F you can expect me to be away from my home from about 7:15am until 2:30pm. I am always able to take a quick lunch midday and run home to check on your fur baby. I have a nice sized fenced in back yard. The fence is a standard height chain link fence. Dog(s) will be crated inside while I am at work and again at bedtime. I usually am asleep from 9pm until 5:30am. Your fur baby will be allowed on the couch and encouraged to give snuggles. I do have 3 cats that generally keep to themselves. However they do have a bedroom they can be secluded to if it were to be an issue.


3. Edmy N.

“We have used Edmy several times now to check in on our cat while we are out of town. Edmy is extremely reliable and trustworthy and communicative. My cat is pretty low maintenance but they always go above and beyond - checking our feeder, auto litter box, bringing in packages and mail. Would always recommend this Rover!”


4. Karisa E.
“Karisa E. is amazing in every way. I’m so thrilled that I booked her for drop-in visits for our two cats while we were on vacation for twelve days in Maui. Although I had been happy with other cat sitters that I’ve worked with on Rover, I decided to give Karisa a chance, because she was more affordable. Boy, am I so glad that I did. Karisa bonded with our kitties, Klondike and Sprite, better than anyone I’ve ever worked with before. Sprite, in particular, is very skittish and will hide from pet sitters, but, miraculously, she was happy to let Karisa and her children hold her during visits. Klondike likewise got tons of attention and affection, as evidenced by the many photos Karisa sent. Karisa also took care of watering my many orchids while we were away. Plus, when I forgot to suspend our shipment of frozen meals from The Farmer’s Dog while we were away, Karisa was a lifesaver! Not only did she keep an eye out for the package, but when it arrived, she brought it in out of the hot sun, unpacked it, and stored everything neatly in the freezer for us. I will most definitely be booking her again in the future.”


5. Bree B.

“Bree went above and beyond when we had an emergency on our vacation far from home. Recommend her heartily (make sure to leave a nice tip if she has to climb through your window).”


6. Shari B.


“Shari was a lifesaver!! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of, even caring for our kitty too! Definitely gave us peace of mind during our trip!”


7. Brooklyn P.
About: I love dogs and have been caring for them since I was 12. With me, your pet will have the “Cool Aunt” as their sitter (with a couple dad jokes slid in as well). We’ll be the Paw-fect match! I’m currently working full time, so on top of meeting all of your pet’s needs, we’ll be taking advantage of long walks in good weather or doing fun activities such playing hide in seek or watching a relatable film for movie night (Beethoven is my favorite!) My services of care will depend on your instructions and boundaries for your fur baby along with your home. I take pride in doing what I do best whilst making sure every expectation you have of me is met.


8. Tonie B.


“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”


9. Emily N.

“I had only had my Baron for a couple weeks when I was forced to go out of town by a family affair. He was still just puppy and Emily took great care of him!”


10. Breanna H.
“Bre is extremely responsible and mature beyond her years. She has helped us in our home with our dog and has helped many neighbors and friends. It's about time she goes official with this. Don't hesitate to bring her on as a team member.”


11. Laura U.

“Laura was great. Took care of our two dogs on short notice, communicated very well including pictures, and had a wonderful attitude. Very pleased.”


12. Tracy E.


“Tracy took excellent care of my cats! One of my cats has medical issues and has to be given pills and insulin shots. Tracy took care of him like a pro!”


13. Jennifer T.


“Jennifer is a favorite of mine and the dogs. They both love her. She's fantastic to work with, incredibly reliable, and just everything you hope for. Thank you so much, Jennifer!”


14. Kim L.
“Kimmy has always been a dog owner since i’ve known her. Her dogs have always been in a happy, loving, caring, and clean environment. Kim always makes sure her dogs have everything they need and are always top priority in their household. I think she would be a great person to have watch over your animals!”


15. Stephanie M.
“Stephanie has been a pet owner for many years. She loves ALL animals! She has a very calm nature and lights up at the sight of any fur baby! She is a kind and compassionate human being and would be excellent with fur babies.”


16. Brooke B.
“From an early age Brooke loved animals. Brooke is kind, intelligent & conscientious. She takes wonderful care of my much beloved & very spoiled Boston Terrier.”


17. Nicolle M.
About: Since I was born, I’ve been around dogs, cats, reptiles, and even birds! I grew up with my parents breeding Rottweilers and pit-bulls, so I have experience with dogs that are considered to be “aggressive” in others’ eyes. I have been the primary trainer and caretaker for every pet I’ve owned since I was a child. I have a very maternal nature with animals. I currently have 2 dogs (Shiba Inu and Chihuahua) as well as 3 cats (one being a rescue kitten). My partner has also been fostering all types of animals for about 5 years. I have no biases when it comes to animals. They are all deserving of love and care, and I am dedicated to giving your fur baby the best care so that they never feel lonely away from you. I am currently not working, so now I am extremely flexible! Caring for animals is something I would like to dedicate all my time to. All of my animals are properly socialized and get along with every animal they come into contact with, if you would like your animal(s) to be socialized, I have no problem bringing them around my animals. If keeping them separated is something you prefer, I have space for them and a fenced in backyard for them to run around in safely. I also have a very keen attention to detail so I will make sure that your pet gets all the medications or attention that it needs to be happy and healthy!


18. Charity S.

“Charity took great care of everyone so we could get out of town a few days. Everyone looks cared for, they all got some extra love while we had fun!”


19. Angie B.

“Angie was great with our pups, spent extra time beyond the scheduled appt, great communication, sent plenty of pictures and gave plenty of attention. Excellent Rover, will use again ?”


20. Lindsay B.
“Lindsay is an amazing pet caregiver! She’s responsible, loving, and attentive. Always ensuring pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend her! There’s no one else I’d go to for my pets.”
