“Molly took care of my cats for a week. She is very caring, attentive and reliable. I appreciated the detailed updates and pictures. In the future I will ONLY trust Molly with my animals and home. Highly recommend if you're looking for the perfect cat sitter. 😊”


“Harper didn't warm up to her, but that's because of him not Ashton. He's only ever warned up to one other person. She was very respectful of his space and comfort level and sent pics from every visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.”


“Lillian has been our drop-in sitter for a week and a half now and I could not be happier. Her attentiveness, compassion and communication is top notch, to say the least. I'm so glad I found her on here.”


“Christine was very kind and responsive and sent pictures during her drop-in. She cleaned up a little mess one of our babies made and even left some homemade dog treats. Great first experience with Rover, thank you!”


“Libby was a God send. We are so thankful for finding her on Rover. We have been worried for a long time about finding the right sitter for our Archie dog and Libby is the perfect person. I can’t wait to use her again! We were lucky enough to have another sitter turn us down and then we found Libby. Our Meet and Greet was as smooth as possible. When my husband made a mistake on the date and Libby showed up when she was not needed, she graciously came back the next day at the correct time. We couldn’t have asked for anything more for our dog, who happens to require a little extra attention. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Libby!”

About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, volunteered at a animal shelter and have been dog training, grooming, walking and pet/dog sitting for years. This is what I do for work so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible.

“Tina was great. Price is very reasonable and it was nice to have a responsible adult monitoring vs. a neighbor kid. There were a couple small events and Tina was proactive and took care of things. Extremely happy.”

About: For over 30 years, I've had the joy of caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Growing up surrounded by these wonderful companions taught me just how special the bond between a pet and their person is. Today, I’m honored to help others by providing their pets with the same love, attention, and care they’re used to at home. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and to treat your furry family member like my own! Now enjoying retirement, I am fortunate to have the time and flexibility to dedicate my days to caring for pets who bring so much love and joy into our lives. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space and routines with the utmost respect. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe and cared for by sticking closely to their normal schedule and providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, or just quiet time, I tailor each visit to your pet’s needs and personality. I am also happy to share photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your fur babies.


About: I grew up around pets. I am very active & can be energetic with your pet. I can play & run (if needed). I love to be around and to spend time with animals. I am very aware of how to take care of an animal. I can spend a good bit of time taking care of them as long as it fits into my schedule! I am flexible with my visits and can come multiple times a day if my schedule doesn’t conflict that day. I work full time, but I have flexibility with having to be in the office so I am able to work with most pet schedules. I also don’t work on the weekends and am usually in town. I can play with pets for hours or just be there to make sure they’re taken care of if they’re more of a shy and/or lazy breed.

About: Dogs and cats and lizards, oh my! I’ve done it all. For the first 18 years of my life I’ve had experience walking dogs, house sitting, and raising my own pets. Then I began working at a summer camp where I was partially responsible for taking care of our reptile family - crested geckos, bearded dragons, and ball pythons and were just some of the cuties I got to take care of. Since then I have taken care and owned cats, dogs, and lizards of my own and on the side have house sat and loved many family and friends pets while they’re gone. I even have experience with some medical administration such as insulin shots to a feisty cat and pills to the dog I currently own. I can’t wait to get acquainted with your family member :) My schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most any time a pet needs taken care of, including during the work day and weekends. I have three dogs, one cat and a crested gecko currently who are all very loved and spoiled by myself, my husband and our almost two year old. We’ve taught all the dogs recall, leash training and how to be gentle around young children. Our cat is an old man with feline herpes, one of our dogs needs daily oral medication and the juvenile gecko gets extra attention as he continues growing.

About: I love to watch and care for animals and have met a wide variety of cats and dogs. I've had many dogs and cats in my life live to a very old age so I've experienced all aged cats and dogs too. I've always thought animals love me because I'm always the one in the room they cling to. I've also trained many of my animals to listen and do tricks. I am a stay at home mom with an open schedule looking for a job I can do while taking care of my daughter. I love all animals especially cats and dogs. I've had dogs and cats my entire life. when I was a young teen my mother opened her own dog grooming shop that I helped with and she taught me a lot. There were all different breeds of dogs and cats that came in for grooming. I've helped take care of all my family pets since very young. I've also for years been paid by friends, family and neighbors to stop in to feed, take outside and play with their pets. I do it because I love it. I'd love to do the exact same for your fur babies so please be in touch and I will respond right away to hopefully get everything set up Feeding, filling water dish, treats, lots of love and attention , scooping litter, cleaning up poop on occasion, taking outside, go for walks and to play. My home has a nearby dog park that the dogs I watch will visit everyday with good weather conditions. Cats of course will stay inside at all times unless owner request otherwise with working harness. I will be sure your kitties get lots of love, play and whatever else they need. I have a cat tree and plan to get more toys and animal furniture in my home.

About: I had taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young. I have relied on me to walked, feed and bathe their pets. I had also trained 2 dogs with some of the sign language as well to teach the animals to sit and stay with the sign language. My friends and family have relied on me to take their dogs to the dog park, the beach and go on the morning hike. Just really take care of their animals with the love, respect and support for those need my help for them to enjoy their time or a getaway! I'm currently working from home on my own flexible schedule! I do have a lot of time in between working virtually and I can do my job anywhere! So if I take the dogs to the park or go on a walk, I could work on my phone to reply my emails, messages etc. I do have the good balance of taking a break from work to spend the time with the animals to give them my attention and cuddles and go on a walks or adventures! First thing first is to care the animals with respect, love and comfort to be in my home or in your home. At my house: I do have a fully fenced back yard and front yard with my two lovely dogs that will give your animals peace of mind and protection. In my house are full of cozy energy, your animal will love this place to run around and enjoying every moment to be here. I have a few bowls of water around my house, they will be hydrated while your animals are here. I don't share human food to the animals. They will always be fed with their own dog/cat food. It is the open space in my house so the animals will be seen in my full view at all times. They will be protected while they're here. I do have a doggie hole as well! The dogs can go outside at anytime with the backyard wood fenced around. If your cats aren't outdoors, that's okay because I do leave a baby gate to block the doggie door hole so the animals doesn't get out and I will take the dogs outside to my front yard that are fenced as well. At night time, I do put all of my cats in my bedroom with me while the door are shut so the dogs can go outside on their own while I am asleep until the morning time, I would block the doggie door with the baby gate and let the cats out my room. If your cat isn't outdoor cat then he/she//they can be with me in my bedroom with all of my cats or they can sleep with my little sister in another cozy room with the cat litter & food/water/toys. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well! Lots of pictures will be shared to the owners as well! The owner with the animal will need to meet me and my animals just to be sure to see how they interact and to see how you feel about your animals for being in my lovely home. If I was at your house, I am that person that will follow your wishes and expectations of how you would want me to care for your animals. I do clean up after myself when I am at your house and to keep it tidy clean as you like it to be. I also like to step outside with the dogs/cats to keep my eyes on them or even just being outside with them and play with their toys to give them my joyful attention. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well. I will always ask the owner before assuming or trying things out. I love to meet the animals before starting the whole process to feel it out how the energy goes for us and for your animals too. If it flows great with you, I and your animals then there will be lots of pictures will be shared to you as well!
