“Donna took great care of my 3 kitties during her drop-in. She made sure that they had food, played with them for a bit, cleaned litterboxes, and made sure they had plenty of water. I highly recommend her for taking care of your kitties/pets. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Laura was great and my cat loved her. She was very calm and gave my shy cat the space to come out of her shell which she did quickly. Laura kept me updated with photos during her check in and made the experience of leaving my home with my cat very comforting. Definitely recommend her and will hire her services again next time I’m out of town. Thank you Laura!”


About: I’ve had dogs and pets my whole life, and love to spend time with all kinds of pets. I am comfortable with any type of feeding/medicine plan you have. Puppy’s, seniors, high energy dogs or couch potatoes I can cater to their needs and make their time enjoyable in whichever manner suits them. I am available 7 days a week at any time of day or night to feed/walk/check up on and spend time with your dogs or cats. I will take care to follow your pets meal/medicine/activity schedule as I know how important structure and routine are for my pups. I am sure to be respectful of you and your pets home and daily routine.

“Kate is an authentic animal lover. Her care and treatment of Karley was sweet from the first introduction. Have no concerns in asking Kate to care for your pets, she’s genuine and trustworthy. We adore her. ❤️🐾”


About: I have cat of my own for almost two years. I grew up with dogs, I also take care of my family’s dogs when they need me to. I’m currently on summer break but when school starts again I can still walk and take care of your pet whenever because I do online school. It takes time and patience to build trust with animals. I have a cat at home so I feel more comfortable walking and taking care of your pet at your place.

“April is the best!! We have used her multiple times for walks, drop-in visits and house sitting and can always count on her to take great care of our pups- and we know they love seeing her too! Thanks again April :)”


“Angela was great. She sent lots of photos of the dogs and she did a great job communicating. She was always prompt with showing up for the dogs and checking on them. I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pets!”


“We booked this drop in for a meet and greet, and upon arrival Levi immediately got down on our dogs level. It was clear from the start that Levi as experienced with dogs, and was willing to take the time to build the necessary trust with our special needs dog which is essential for someone to be able to perform the required care (lifting/moving) for him. In addition, Levi is just full of friendly energy both human and animals can't help but respond to.”


About: I’ve taken care of family and friends pets since I was young. They have trusted me to walk, play, feed and bathe their pets while they were gone. I have a high energy dog myself and love to take him to the park and go on walks with him. I currently have no job except being a stay at home mom- your pets needs are my first priority. Your pet needs someone to throw them the ball I’m the one who can help. I have a one bedroom apartment along with my overly friendly fur baby - so I can easily crate your pet if needed. Your pet is my pet.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s been surrounded by pups for as long as I can remember. My partner and I currently have two sweet, professionally trained dogs who are super dog-friendly and love making new furry friends! We also foster dogs, so we’re used to all kinds of personalities—from the super shy to the zoomie champions. Our home is full of love (and treats), and our dogs are crate trained, respectful, and always ready to welcome a new buddy into the pack. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a drop-in visit for some playtime and belly rubs, or just a friendly face while you're away, we’ve got you covered! We love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and learning what makes them happiest—whether that’s chasing a ball, sniffing every tree, or just lounging in the sun. We can’t wait to meet your pup and help them feel right at home (even when they’re not)! I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your pets! Including midday walks, potty breaks, and outside playtime. We're available for boarding on weekends, starting at 5pm on Fridays. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities! We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our two friendly, well-trained dogs love having new friends to hang out with. Need a little extra space? No problem—we’re happy to crate dogs if requested or provide separate areas in our home for pups who prefer their own quiet corner. Whether your dog is super social or enjoys a bit more independence, we’re here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every step of the way.

About: I have loved animals my entire life. My 3 dogs and cat are my babies. I would have more if possible. I can’t think of a better way to spend my retirement than caring for animals. I have experience with chickens, dogs, cats, rats, lizards and snakes. I am recently retired and would love to spend my free time caring for animals. I wouldn’t have any other obligation other than giving excellent care to your fur baby. I own my own home and have a completely fenced backyard. I have 3 very friendly dogs who love playing with other dogs. We have a doggy door, bedding, treats and lots of love and attention.

“I hired Sara for a drop-in for my two cats and requested she also water my backyard vegetable garden. During the meet and greet my cats warmed to her quickly and I knew she would be great with them. She took notes on what to do and where to find things which gave me confidence in the service she would provide. On the day of the drop-in she was punctual and communicated when she arrived. She sent pictures, handled all the tasks to care for our cats with ease and went above and beyond to play with our two cats. I would hire Sara again and recommend her to others. Your fur babies would be in great hands. Thank you, Sara!”


“Brooklyn is the absolute best! She is so sweet, caring & diligent & went above & beyond caring for my Mia & keeping her company. 100% recommend and will definitely use her again. Mia is elderly & deaf & was heartbreaking to leave (for personal matters) but we (Mia & i) were comfortable after just a couple of days. She dropped in on her for (23)! days!”


“Ashlin took good care of our cat while we went on vacation. We received pictures every visit and felt confident she was in good hands. She was thorough with good questions during the meet and greet. We will be using her services in the future.”

Johnna was wonderful. She went above and beyond in caring for my elderly cat, and helped me understand how Rover works. (This was my first Rover booking). She is reliable, detailed, and gives great updates on your pets. I am so relieved to know that there is somebody I can trust to come into my home, and care for my fur babies. I look forward to being able to call on her in the future.

Mckenzi is very reliable and well-loved by my four cats. I travel thousands of miles away but don't have to worry about my animals because they are in her hands. I have worked with Mckenzi for almost three years now and I really trust her with my pets. Thanks Mckenzi!

Emma was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of Meiko while I was away and made the whole process really easy and stress-free. Communication was smooth and consistent.I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again for future pet care-highly recommend!

We booked this drop in for a meet and greet, and upon arrival Levi immediately got down on our dogs level. It was clear from the start that Levi as experienced with dogs, and was willing to take the time to build the necessary trust with our special needs dog which is essential for someone to be able to perform the required care (lifting/moving) for him. In addition, Levi is just full of friendly energy both human and animals can't help but respond to.

I’m so thankful for Jahaila! My Gizmo is an anxious dog and takes a bit to warm up to people. On our first meetup, she was so patient with him and went at his pace when introducing herself to him. To my surprise, it took him no time to warm up to her and give her kisses and sniff her. I knew then that I could trust her with watching him and that he would be ok. She sent plenty of pictures and updates, so I was at ease during my trip. She’s very kind and I can tell she loves what she does. I will definitely rebook in the future.

Davina cared for my cat during a week-long business trip, and she was absolutely perfect. She helped me feel totally at ease before I left, coming over to meet my cat and learn the routine. She was on time every day, sent tons of pictures, kept me in the loop of everything happening, and responded to all my texts and questions. My cat has a tendency to want to bolt outside (even though he's indoors-only) and Davina assured me she was familiar with that behavior and made sure he didn't get out of the house. She also made an incredible effort to engage my kitty while she was here, even bringing extra toys to make sure he got activity as well as company. She was kind, helpful, and completely trustworthy. I'd highly recommend her to others.

Scott and Amy were amazing! They were so accommodating to drop-in and check on our pups when I got called into work last minute. They were super thoughtful to clean up after our puppy and leave extra water without me even having to ask. We will definitely reach out to them again in the future!
