3. Jacqueline P.

“Jacqueline did a fantastic job watching my little guy. He is an anxious rabbit but she managed to win over his trust and affection. She was also careful and detail oriented and went above and beyond caring for him.”

Claire is incredibly responsible and communicative, it is such a relief to be able to have someone so trustworthy to rely on! Claire will love your pet as if it were her own, which is why we are lucky to have met her.”


9. Robert & Brian D.
“Robert has truly been a savior as the dog sitter for my two pups: Choppers and Lucky. Over the last few years, he has consistently proven to be reliable, punctual, and true to his word. His dedication to taking care of my boys shines through in every interaction. So much so, that it wouldn't be a surprise if Choppers and Lucky sometimes prefer his company over mine! Robert's genuine love for animals and his attentive care make him an invaluable asset in ensuring the well-being and happiness of our furry friends. He has my complete and unqualified endorsement.”


10. Jing Wen K.

“Jing Wen is lovely and was very patient and understanding with my spicy kitties. After meeting her, I knew they would be in good hands.”

13. Malia K.

“Malia was an absolute rockstar. Our kitties are usually pretty wary of new sitters but they warmed up to her right away. She was prompt and sent the cutest pics!”


14. Quincy G.
“Quincy has been an excellent pet sitter for my cat Muppet! She asked thorough questions about Muppet’s care before starting, and she was happy to give whatever type of updates I preferred. Quincy is an experienced Registered Veterinary Technician, so I trust her to know if Muppet is in need of medical care when I’m gone, and know how to address it. She is great at reading animals and giving them the amount/type of attention that they want. I would highly recommend!”


15. Marta E.

“Marta was really easy to work with and very responsive to my questions. She sent me photos of my happy kitties too. We’d love to use her cat sitting services in the future.”


16. Jes K.

“Always can count on Jes for doing a great job taking care of our two cats! The kitties were very happy when we came home after their daily play sessions. Thank you!!”


17. Joseph S.
About: Ever since I had a dog growing up, I’ve always had a great love for animals. My love for them led me to join the pet caregiving app, Wag, in 2020. Now, 4 years later, I’ve completed more than 450 services there and amassed more than 450 five-star reviews (this can be verified in my photos). My services have included dog walking, dog boarding, and my specialty, dog and cat sitting. I am now bringing the experience I gained on Wag to Rover as I build my clientele base here. I can’t wait to meet more pet owners here that will give me the honor of continuing to care for and love their pets. In addition to the experience I’ve listed above, I am a puppy expert as I have spent the last 12 months taking care of my sister’s dog, Rafa, who is now a one-year-old Bernedoodle. I potty trained him, taught him tricks, fed him, and walked him at least twice a day. I also crate trained him and helped in his rehabilitation after he was neutered. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and cats and administering oral medication when it is necessary. I’ve worked with German Shepherds and Pit Bulls and all animals in between. I know that it can feel vulnerable when you leave your pet in the care of someone else and that is why I send plenty of pictures and updates to ensure you they are in good hands. I treat every pet I care for as if it were my own, and so, I hope you will do me the honor of letting me take care of yours. Pet care is my main source of income, so I am available full-time to care for your pets. My specialty is pet sitting where I can take care of your pets in their own environment. My expertise is pet sitting. I like to take care of pets where they are most comfortable - in their own homes. When you leave your home and pet in my care, you don’t have to worry about a thing. I am 38 years old, I don’t smoke or drink, I go to bed every night at 10 PM and wake at 6 AM, and I maintain a clean environment and live a healthy lifestyle. Just like I treat your pets as if they were my own, I also treat every home I sit in as if it were my own.




18. Chloe S.


“Chloe was really great as my little guy's walker for 5 days. I was incredibly disorganized before I left for vacation and gave her the wrong keys for my apartment. She was super patient, kind, and went well beyond her responsibility as a walker. From the pictures, my dog was very happy with her as well.”


19. Kimmy D.

“Kimmy was amazing. We met beforehand and she was super thorough in asking questions and learning about my cat. She was on time and so caring. I HIGHLY recommend her! She is awesome!!”


20. Linda L.

“Linda took fantastic care of our cat, Broccoli! She provided us with cute pictures and other updates every time she dropped by and also had no issues giving Broccoli her meds. This was our first time using rover and it could not have been a better experience. Everything went so smoothly. Thank you, Linda!”
