“Our cats love Emily!! And we love reading her thoughtful recaps of visits, always with pics. We can always leave town knowing our pets are in great hands! Thank you Emily!”

“Our other sitter fell through at the last minute so we reached out to Christina to see if she could watch our kitties and thankfully she said yes! She took excellent care of them and we could not recommend her more!”

“Mariah is really great. I'm really glad I found out about Rover and about Mariah. It makes it easy for me to take fun little trips without having to worry about my pet while I'm gone.”

“Ivanis was absolutely perfect with my Mishti. She was very attentive to her needs and was super patient with her. I was initially hesitant to use this service because I had never done it before but I was very happy to use it with Ivanis. She made. A great first impression during her initial visit and I was able to leave home confident that my cat would be very well taken care of. It is clear that Ivanis is really gifted with pets and her time with my cat reflected that. She was also very accommodating with my questions and my cat’s quirkiness. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again!!”

“Ashlee is the best! She has been the only person I have trusted to come to let my pups out, feed them and just love on them when we’re gone. This time was a spur of the moment thing and she was awesome! We are so grateful for her kind self and her love for our babies!!!”

About: I worked as a pet-sitter in the Goshen area during college. I have experience with older dogs and multi-pet households. I’m happy to keep as close to your regular schedule as possible. I’ve just graduated from UND with my MFA and I am looking for a little extra income as I adjust to life post graduate school. My days are totally flexible and I am happy to work around your preferred schedule. I’ve accommodated picky eaters and older pets dealing with incontinence. No matter what the situation is, I’m ready to dive right in and make your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“Val was amazing! She did drop in visits for my dogs for about five days. On each visit she took pictures and updated me on the status of my dogs. I could see on their faces that they were having fun with Val. She even bought them some toys to play with. She was very attentive and responsible.”

“Lily took great care of my kitten this week! I booked on short notice after she spent the weekend at the emergency vet. Would 100% recommend and I've already rebooked for the future :)”

About: I’m paw-sitively obsessed with your fur babies already. With a calm, nurturing energy and a genuine love for animals, I provide reliable care that keeps pets happy and relaxed. I focus on connection, comfort, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I’m currently available for visits anytime day or night, and I can spend as much time with your pet as they need during each visit. I make sure your pet feels safe in their own environment, learn their routine and needs, offer affection and attention, all while respecting your home the way you would.
“Jessica did a great job with my cats! She kept in contact with me everyday with a report card and pictures. Both were very much appreciated!! She even followed up with me when I returned home. She treated my pets like they were her own…highly recommend!!!”

“We had a really good experience with Kylie taking care of both the cats. Both cats gelled with her, she made sure to share many pictures from every visit. Had a peace of mind, knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely approach her again if we get a chance.”

About: I have had pets (from dogs and cats to rabbits and hedgehogs) all of my life. I have dealt with dogs from all walks of life and would love to care for yours! I am currently an environmental science major/biology minor in ROTC! I am available to visit your best friend(s) with paws in between and after my classes. I am willing to work around my schedule to take the best care of your wonderful cat(s)/dog(s). I normally care for the pets in client’s home as directed or asked of me! Although I am in school, I can make multiple trips throughout the day to be with your furry friends and then return to be with them after my classes!
About: I am a huge pet lover! I’ve had several pets over the years and I treat them as if they were my child. I feel as if animals should feel loved and cared for just as much as us humans. For the time being I am available ALL week including weekends. I have always had a special connection with animals. My friend of mine had a Golden Retriever and his name was Benny he was my bestfriend. We’d always spend time together and I’ve always just felt the need to look after him as if he were my own. My point is I genuinely care for animals and it’s always in my best interest to keep them safe and care for them as best as possible. I have a huge field across from my house that I walk to every morning and afternoon just to get some fresh air so daily walks and outdoor time won’t be a problem for me. I also like to have cats as my primary emotional support animal so their presence alone would be a great addition to my daily routine. There is a ginormous field across from my apartment complex for your fur companion’s enjoyment so there will be tons of outdoor and play time. I do not have a fenced yard so I will always be alongside them at the park with a secured leash of course.
“Mykale is a wonderful cat-sitter! I have two elderly cats, one of whom requires twice daily medication, and so I'm always a bit nervous about leaving them behind if I have to travel. Knowing that Mykale is dropping in on them while I'm gone has really put my mind at ease. She is very communicative and the cats warmed up to her really quickly. When the winter weather got truly awful she even switched to an overnight stay last minute to ensure that Rascal would get his medication in the morning as scheduled even if everyone got snowed in!”

“Alyssa took great care of our 13-year old cat while we were away. She sent pictures daily and our normally reluctant cat took to her right away. We will definitely book Alyssa again the next time we need a sitter.”

Fnw pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica & Andre G. were excellent. We could not have found a more caring sitter. We loved the photos and the notes. Jessica was so easy to talk to and very understanding with changes we needed. We are booking her again next month and look forward to working with her. We would highly recommend.
Hanling took excellent care of our kitty! She came in advance to meet him and get instructions in person, and spent lots of time playing and cuddling with him on each visit so he wouldn't be too lonely while we were gone. She also sent us lots of pictures of him. We will definitely call her the next time we need a pet sitter.
