Jamie was incredible with my cat, Jerry. I wasn't aware of this app until I had little time left before my trip and she was able to squeeze me in for a meet and greet with me and my furry baby in short notice. She was very sweet with him and followed the direction for his care very well. I know he was cared for with great attention and love as he was very calm when I arrived back home. If I wasn't moving away, I would definitely hire Jamie again for every trip.

Andrea and Edwin were amazing! It was our first time using Rover and we will definitely choose them as needed! The photo updates were great and so very appreciated! It became a highlight of our trip to see what our pets were up to while we were away. Thank you so much for loving on our crew while we were gone!

Our dog is so happy that we found Deanna. He is hoping she’ll play fetch again with him again before long. Great job and highly recommend. Deanna even brought treats for us and our dog. So sweet!

About: I have worked with all types of pets throughout my entire life! I have worked with everything from cats and dogs, to snakes and parakeets! I am home for the summer and have a part time job that I will do my absolute best to work around! Let me know what times and days work best for you, and I will do what I can to adjust accordingly! My #1 goal is to ensure that the pet is happy and healthy when I am in it's care! I understand that new people can be frightening or scary to a companion animal. My job is to take my time to get to know these pets and make their time with me enjoyable and comfortable!

About: Most people babysit growing up, I was the local petsitter instead. Now I’m the go-to petsitter for my friends and colleagues, looking to help others! I have experience petsitting both cats and dogs! My main summer job is research, so the hours I’m available are very flexible. I make my own schedule so I can make myself available for most times! I’ve cared for lots of pets of varying age and need ranges, so I am equipped to do whatever is needed for pets to thrive while their owners are away. I am used to taking dogs on long walks or snuggling under a blanket, and I have two very particular cats of my own so I know how to get kitties eating, playing, and comfortable!

About: Lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like my own! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your furry best friend’s in good hands. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and love giving them a safe, happy space because they deserve the best! 💕🐕 I just recently graduated so I have a completely open availability for walks, check ins, or to just keep your pets some company while you’re away! I’m currently available mon-thurs at any time! For Fridays-Sundays I’m available anytime before 4pm, as I usually have work after 5 on weekends, I’m looking forward to filling my free time keeping company to your animals! I always treat pets (and their homes!) with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I make sure doors are locked, routines are followed, and your furry friend stays safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.

About: Although I don't have a dog of my own, pets have always been a part of my life! My childhood best friend has two golden retrievers, so growing up we spent countless hours taking them out for playtime and keeping them occupied. My sister adopted an adorable golden doodle two summers ago, and our house is like his second home because of how often he loves to visit. Any of my friends can count on me asking "Where's the dog?" whenever I come over, because I just gravitate to having a furry friend by my side! I specialize in discovering all of your pets' silly quirks that make them unique and working with them from there. I also specialize in working with hyper-active pets, being able to expend their energy in a healthy way and calm them down. I adapt well between large and small animals, handling them each with the proper care/delicacy they need. I have a lot of free time to fill this summer, so my general availability will always be open. I am mainly open to Doggy Day Care, House Sitting, and Dog Walking, but am also interested in Boarding! My daily availability is the most open in the mornings and afternoons, so if you leave home early for a job or a trip I'll be right here to step in. Weekends are also free to Board! I have a large yard with plenty of room for your dog to get out their zoomies! There are also two parks in walking distance from my house, so I have plenty of access to the outdoors. My sister has a mini golden doodle who visits all the time, so I can always set up play dates to give your pet a furry friend. I can administer any medication your dog has need of if I have instructions, and will send as many updates as needed so you know they're in good hands! Relaxation time is always great to have, but I will make sure your pet has a good variation of activities so they are never bored. If I am aware of any triggers your pets has, I will provide a safe environment, whether in your home or mine, so I can always keep them stress-free.

About: I have had pets my whole life and have had experience caring for a diverse range of animals! In the past, I had cats, dogs, gerbils, chickens, fish, and a tortoise. I currently have cats, rabbits, and snakes, and love my babies to pieces! I would love to meet yours! Me and my husband absolutely love animals, so much so that we had our wedding at the Henry Doorly Zoo! I know how stressful being away while having pets is and I will do everything I can to alleviate that anxiety! I currently work as a full time kitchen and bath designer but would love to care for your pets in my free time on the weekends and weeknights! I would love to come and care for your pet in their safe space! I will do everything I can to make sure your pet is properly cared for and that your home remains a safe space for them!

Abbey was phenomenal!! She truly went above and beyond to care for our fur baby, Blu. She left detailed visit notes, shared plenty of photos, and made sure Blu got everything he needed—eye drops, treats, snuggles, and walks. She also treated our home with care and even brought in our Amazon package. Abbey is so kind, and Blu absolutely adored her. We’re incredibly grateful and highly recommend her!

Reagan is honestly the greatest. Prompt, a good communicator, extremely kind, and very accommodating are just some of the things I love about her. When she stayed overnight in my home she left it cleaner than I did! I have many pets and she followed all directions perfectly. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you for everything, Reagan ♥️ hope to see you soon!
