“Christina was wonderful watching my two cats while I was away. She was very communicative and I will definitely book her again next time I need to leave for a few days. She sent thoughtful messages and cute photos and made sure everything was taken care of at the house. Thank you, Christina!”
“Rosemary took great care of our 3 cats for a week. I felt comfortable and confident that they were fed, happy, and also got the attention and love that they needed while we were away. We looked forward to the daily updates and photos. Everything seemed to go well. I would definitely book with her again for a future trip and would also recommend her to anyone local who needed pet care.”
“Veronica was wonderful with our two cats. I would recommend her to anyone and would use her services again anytime. It was the first time I used a sitter, and it worked out perfectly”
“I was in California for 5 days, far away from my sweet cat. I did not worry about her at all though, because Jenna showed up on time, fed my kitty, and made sure she had water and a clean litter box. She sent me lots of photos and a video every day so I knew she was being well cared for. It was obvious from the photos that Emmie loved Jenna’s visits. When we arrived home, Emmie was calm and happy. I would definitely hire Jenna again to care for my cat when I am away.”
“Annmarie did a wonderful job caring for our kitties over 4th of July weekend. We’re always worried to leave them during the fireworks but she provided us updates and hung out with them while the booms went off.”
“Maryline’s great! She was very communicative and attentive to our cats needs. She came by for a meet-&-greet, followed the instructions we left, sent us lots of pictures of Clive and updates. We felt Clive was in good hands which means a lot when leaving our furr baby in someone else’s care. Highly recommend Maryline!”
“I can’t recommend Iliana enough! Her communication is impeccable, keeping me updated throughout the day with messages and adorable photos of my pups and chickens. It was such a relief to know my dogs were in good hands.”
“Lex babysat my cat and house for two nights. She was friendly, communicative, and our cat seemed to love her. We came back to a clean house and happy cat. Would absolutely hire her again next time we’re out of town.”
About: I love all animals and I have taken care of my own dogs and cats for 15+ years. I am also a 'go-to' person for my neighbors' pets too. I work remotely a few times a week so I can assist during the week!! Can drop in Thurs, Fridays, Sat and Sundays whenever needed to let your animal out, walk or feed too. Also can give shots as I had a diabetic cat which needed shots I can walk your pet - feed, give medication, let animal out - or spend time with them during the day. Happy to assist when needes.
About: I have a passion for dogs and respect for animals, also with 10 years of experience. I have the right skills and training to care for your babies. I am working part time and I have plenty of time to play with your pups! My availability is flexible and can be talked about at any time. I am very observant and patient with handling different breeds and sizes of dogs. I intend to create a loving and happy environment while we go for walks and drop in visits.
About: I've dog sat and dog walked for my friends, for up to a few weeks of continuous care, ranging from puppies to older dogs. I also have experience cat-sitting and all the duties associated with that! I work full-time and am on Rover as something to do in my free time! I just really love all animals and thought it would be great to help owners out. Think of me as someone who can come by while you go out and enjoy the weekend or have a night out! I work from home so I'm able to take care of pets during office hours as well! While I'm not able to take care of pets at my own home, I'll always respect the rules of your house and property. Please let me know every detail of care for your pet as well as your home! I am detail-oriented and will make sure to follow it to a tee!
“Maddie is a terrific cat sitter! She is patient and kind, attentive to detail and was respectful to our kitty and our wishes about what we wanted for her care. Our cat is elderly and has medical needs and Maddie was open to specific instructions and so calm and patient. We had/have complete trust in her and she has our highest rating and appreciation. Thanks so much Maddie!”
“Kimmie was perfect with our kitties, and they warm up to her really quick. We got photos and updates everyday while away making us feel at ease while traveling. We will really miss her taking care of them when we move.”
About: Hi there, my name is Erin! I’m a certified animal lover. I’ve been around animals all my life. I grew up with dogs and cats (as well as fish, lizards and turtles)! My husband and I currently have two dogs. I work remotely and have a flexible work schedule. Since I work remotely, pet sitting is a great excuse to get out of the house and have a lounging and cuddling up with them! I know when I’m in need of a dog sitter, it’s important to feel that your dog/cat is with someone experienced and that you can trust. With me, you can rest assured knowing your loved one is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend!! I work from home. Taking care of dogs and cats fits easily into my daily schedule. Morning, afternoon and evening flexibility for attention, short and long walks. My home should feel as comfortable and welcoming as a dog or cats own home. If I’m in their space I respect their home as I would for human and human there.

Lisa N.
“If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family, Lisa is the one. She’s reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. My pup warmed up to her instantly—and that’s saying a lot, because he’s usually shy around new people. Lisa goes above and beyond, whether it's making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise or sending adorable photo updates that brighten your day. Her calm energy and attention to detail give you total peace of mind. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my four-legged best friend.”

Kay made sure that they were given what was told to give them, I would definitely recommend her to walk, play and take care of my dogs.”

Chijioke is communicative, tidy and an excellent pet caregiver.”
