“Anna was amazing!! We had a few situations arise that she was so gracious to adjust to meet the needs of our fur babies. I cannot recommend her enough and brag on the care and love she gave our dogs!”


“Brooke was wonderful with our cat! We have a very shy and skittish kitty who usually will not come out of hiding for others. She warmed up to Brooke very quickly and I was shocked that she came out for pets and love. We are very happy to have found someone our cat trusts and will definitely be booking with Brooke again!”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Allison was absolutely amazing with my cat while I was away! From the start, she was communicative, friendly, and clearly cares deeply about animals. She followed all feeding instructions perfectly, kept his water fresh, and even spent time playing with him (which he loved — she quickly figured out his favorite toys!). She sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. It’s clear she treats pets like her own, and I could tell she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and entertained. I’ll absolutely be booking with Allison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter.”


“Spur of the moment 1st time booking with Melissa for 2 senior dogs with special needs. I was impressed at the meet & greet when she immediately loved on the dogs, and was thorough with wanting to know their needs. She was very communicative and wanted to ensure all went well after the drop in. Will definitely be using Melissa again!”


“Avonlea was a wonderful choice for a check in visit! She had great communication and generally felt very trustworthy. I’d definitely use her again & will recommend her to my friends!”


“Elana was our first experience using Rover and won’t be our last. She was incredibly responsive and took excellent care of our 10mo Great Dane. She sent us daily updates and spent some extra time giving our boy some love. I highly recommend her and will be sure to seek her out next time we go away, our pup was super happy when we came home and you could tell he wasn’t stressed a bit. Huge relief for us because this was the first time we left him. Thanks Elana!!!!”


“I was hesitant on letting a complete stranger in my home but as soon as I met Felicia, my concern was gone as she was super sweet and extremely personable. I can’t say enough how appreciative I am to Felicia for her willingness to accept my last minute request over the 4th of July holiday weekend. She was absolutely amazing and will 100% be using Felicia again!”


“Jessi is absolutely wonderful and took incredible care of our pack while we were away! We could tell from regular updates with adorable photos they were being well cared for and loved. It was such a relief knowing our fur babies were in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, Jessi is the best, and we’ll definitely be booking them again. Highly recommend!”


“Becky was incredibly patient with our shy girl. She was very communicative and sent us daily pictures! Although our sweet tabby didn't venture out, Becky made us feel incredibly grateful we had someone looking out for our Lola. 5 of 5 stars for Becky as our 1st time cat sitter. We will definitely reach out to her again!”


“If I could give Jasmin 10 stars, I would, but Rover only allows five! She took the time to do a meet and greet with me and my 8-week old puppy. Jasmin is ALWAYS on time which is important to me because we are potty training. She provides recaps with photos and a note. She also came to my rescue on very short notice. I will use Jasmin’s services for as long as I can. ☺️”


“Skylar has such a get energy and it’s obvious that she loves animals! She did a great job with my dog Beau and even gave him some extra cuddle time which I know he loved! Thank you Skylar!”


About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets over the years. Friends, family, and even coworkers have counted on me to look after their animals when they’re away, and it’s something I genuinely love doing. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, bathing, or just spending time with them, I always make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m comfortable with basic training for cats and dogs, and I’ve given medications in all forms—from pills and liquids to ear and eye drops. Every pet is different, and I try to treat each one like they’re my own. While I do work full-time, I have a flexible schedule throughout the week that allows me to offer drop-in visits and walks at various times during the day. I make it a priority to build pet care into my routine, and I’m happy to coordinate timing that works best for you and your pet’s needs. When I care for pets in their own space, I prioritize consistency and comfort. I stick closely to your routines—walks, feeding, meds, crate time, or play. I keep the home tidy and respect your space as if it were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with regular check-ins, photos, and notes so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.

About: Family, friends, neighbors, and roommates have been relying on me to pet sit/ house sit/ baby sit for decades. I have experience with large and small breeds of dogs, cats, and other animals such as ducks, hamsters, gerbils, and tarantula! I am a part-time small business owner. My schedule is quite flexible. I am available for potty breaks and walks day or night. Multiple day house/pet sitting is also doable. I love to cuddle and talk to animals! Play! Feed! Brush! Bathe! Clip nails! Give medicine! I clean up accidents well (including hair balls, spills, pee/poo). I keep general spaces, crates, water and food bowls clean and tidy. I ask questions about caring for your pet as needed. I am happy to follow as detailed or as general of directions and steps as you see fit.

“Caroline did a wonderful job taking care of our cats! She was super friendly, communicative, and send lots of pictures while we were away. We would definitely have her watch our kitties again.”


About: Engaging your pets and creating a bond is important to me. I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I can remember. Taking responsibility and providing the utmost care, I will deeply respect both you and your pets! I am a local college student who will be starting school again soon. I’m also a dancer who is busy with working with a big television show soon. While I’m busy, you will be my first work priority! I will do everything to ensure your furry (or furless) family members safety and care. I’ve had experience with anxious pets and extroverted pets. From Great Danes to chihuahuas, I have had success with caring for multiple ages and sizes. Whatever your pet needs, I’m happy to adapt to their routine.

“Claire was an amazing sitter! She kept me updated the entire time and was quick to problem solve when my high maintenance cat threw some curve balls. She cared for her just like we would and I got to enjoy my weekend because I knew she was in good hands. We will definitely use her again in the future!”


About: For my friends and family, I have always been their “go to” for reliable sitting. It’s not just what I know, it’s what I enjoy! I work full-time downtown as a graphic designer, with the flexibility to work remotely when needed. I’m available in the mornings and evenings to spend quality time with your pet, and I can also check in during the day if needed. My roommate has a mini dachshund, and I help take care of Toast whenever possible! He has a play pen where he can wander and play safely when we are away as well a kennel that he uses for a safe space. We also monitor the foods he is allowed to have very closely and have a good relationship with our vet for any questions/concerns we might have. While there is no opportunity in my backyard for roaming (they would need to be leashed), there’s a dog park a minute down the road that is well kept and perfect for exercise!

About: I’ve taken care of pets all my life, all who I’ve had since being a puppy to when they cross the rainbow bridge. Comfortable with all life stages. I’m available for sitting on weekends starting at 5 on Friday. Also many times I am available during the week for a pop in or walk! I can promise your pups are in good hands. I’m prompt and know how to be professional (that doesn’t mean I don’t love to play)!

Summer is organized, attentive, and provides plenty of updates; I would not hesitate to let her care for my pets anytime :)”

“Cayli is fantastic with my cats! I never hesitate to give her a call knowing that she will care for them the same way I do. Cayli has a very calm demeanor and I think this helps to put pets at ease when their humans are gone. She is also the type of person who does what she says she will. I know she will show up on time, every time. You can tell she truly enjoys being around animals - they run to her for attention as soon as she walks through the door and she is always loving on them.”


Angelica H.
“Angelica is an excellent caregiver! She’s had animals of all sorts since she was very young and give medications as needed. She always goes above and beyond and treats anybody’s pets that she’s babysitting like her own. I would trust her with any of my animals and know that they would be more than well cared for. She’s an amazing pet owner and carer!”

Allison was amazing! She stopped by to check in on my cat, Nuts, while I was out of town and did a great job. She was very communicative, sending me plenty of updates and photos so I knew Nuts was happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again the next time I’m away.

She cared for her just like we would and I got to enjoy my weekend because I knew she was in good hands. We will definitely use her again in the future!

CANNOT RAVE ENOUGH!!! I’ve had rough experiences with sitters before so my anxiety was high! But The pictures she sent they looked so happy and definitely well cared for🙂 she also made sure to stay in communication with me which is amazing!! I will for sure use her again!!!

Reese was the very best cat sitter for my cat, Bennett! She is always quick to respond to our messages, completes everything on our checklist, and sends the best photos when you need them most. In the past we would come home to Bennett being highly anxious. However, this time, we could tell he was the most at ease we have ever seen. I highly recommend Reese to anyone who is looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!

Sijal was great! The food we had left in a sealed container on the porch for our cat disappeared (the whole container was gone!). She was so helpful and bought more food for him since we were out of the country. She took pictures every day and did exactly what we needed her to do.
