“Jessica was fantastic with providing clear communication, including updates, photos, and how our pupper was doing! Very pleasant experience and would recommend/have again in the future.”
About: I am very chill and upbeat. I just truly love animals and love caring for them. I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, I’ve never lived without a dog. I’m very very available! I will happily dedicate all my time to your fur baby and give them all the attention they deserve and need. I am very attentive and will follow your routines for your pets with care. I know how important it is for some pets for things to go as usual, and I will be very sure of that.
“5 stars for Kylie! She send detailed updates and anecdotes along with photos every day. She was prompt, polite, communicative, and so easy to work with. She went above and beyond to take care of my two cats. Would definitely book again!”
“Kassandra is an amazing sitter - very dependable and prompt with communication! Cato loves her and we are very lucky to have her take care of our fur baby when we're away!”
“After the meet & greet took place, I knew Amanda would be the perfect person to care for my dogs. She’s reliable, compassionate, attentive, and patient with dogs that have special quirks and needs. I highly recommend Amanda as a resource for your animal needs!”
“Jordan is an absolute gem. We hire her every time we are out of town and our cats (one of whom has get a get an insulin shot very 12 hours) are so well cared for. 10/10, definitely book her!”
“Jasmine was great! She was not able to find my cat all of the time but she still sent pictures showing she was dropping in and tried very hard to catch my cat on camera. She even did the litter box even though I forgot to put that on the instructions.”
“Absolutely amazing! My dog is not always good with strangers but she loved them immediately. They were so great with her. They responded to messages quickly and listened to any pet requests. It was a 20/10 experience. I’d 100% recommend them to anyone who needs their pet watched or walked. They’re amazing people!”

“Cynthia did a fantastic job taking care of my cat! She made sure she always had water, a clean litter box, and a little play time. She updated me with each visit and gave a thorough report card to let me know how things were going. I would definitely recommend Cynthia as a cat sitter and book her for future trips.”
“Damacia did a phenomenal job caring for our cat while we were away. The brief daily posts helped reassure us, and we were really able to enjoy our trip! Our kitty clearly loves Damacia, who seems to have quite a gift with animals. Fantastic!”

“Jordan is excellent. She loves on my puppies like they are her own. She spends quality time with them and they are very happy to see her. Thank you Jordan for loving on my babies”
Elkhardt pet parents share their Rover experiences
My Leah always takes some time getting comfortable with people. That said, Le’Yana listened and used all my tricks and suggestions to help Leah become at ease with her visits. I can always tell when Leah is happy with her visit by her behavior when I get home…and Leah is happy! Le’Yana has been a joy and I receive lots of pics and updates🙂
Tara took care of our cat Evonne with drop-in visits all week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Evonne clearly loved her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Tara was very reliable and did a great job keeping us updated after each visit. She sent regular photos and messages so we could see how Evonne was doing, which we really appreciated. It was obvious that she spent quality time with her and made sure she was comfortable and cared for. We would absolutely recommend Tara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter, and we’d be happy to book her again in the future.
Trinity was great! She was very flexible and able to work with me last minute over a holiday which is amazing. She communicated with me regularly and sent me pics and updates of my kitty. I came home to a happy kitty. I will definitely use her as a sitter again and highly recommend her.
Kay did a great job checking in on our two cats. One of our cats has some medical needs and she did a good job administering medicine and being incredibly patient with her. She was a great communicator and we felt our girls were well taken care. Kay seems to really care for animals and we happily recommend her.
Emily was amazing! She was very communicative and FaceTimed with us before we left to make us comfortable. She sent us great pictures and was able to get our very shy cat to love her. Highly recommend if you want someone to care about your cats like they are their own!
Joy is such a wonderful pet sitter! I was so relieved when joy accepted to pet drop in on my hound and cats. Very attentive and responsive. Loves spending time with animals and is a comfort to have looking after your pets! Perfectly on time and doesn't over stay. I trust her 100% with my fur babies. Absolutely will be booking again!
Kiera was wonderful. She bonded quickly with Cary and she would greet Kiera at the door with her “purr engine” humming. I really appreciated the pictures that she sent. I highly recommend Kiera. Her love of all animals is quite apparent. I don’t often leave on trips, but Kiera is at the top of my list when I do. Five stars. Would hire again.
Alexis went above and beyond on the tasks requested and even stayed extra time with my cats which was very kind of her! She was punctual and responsible and my cats warmed up to her immediately. I was able to have peace of mind during my trip. I would definitely rebook with Alexis and recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.
