About: I’ve grown up around dogs for most of my life and already occasionally pet sit for friends and family. I used to work as a caretaker at a doggy daycare, and decided to continue pet care alongside my new job as it became such a fulfilling part of my life. I'm experienced with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and I'm experienced with a variety of other animals such as cats, fish, lizards, turtles, birds, and hermit crabs. My current work schedule follows the standard Mon-Fri 8-5, with most of my weekends and evenings open. Because of this, I'd be most suited for pets that are used to this schedule already. Otherwise, I try my best to stick to their current schedule for things like feeding and walks. I always feel comfortable meeting the parent(s) and pet before the booking. I can take care of all basic tasks and am very adaptable, patient, and reliable. I do my best to learn about each pet's little mannerisms and quirks so I can accommodate them the best I can while keeping them and your home safe. I want to make sure both you and your pet end up happy! I always ask that I'm given the pet's vet and an emergency contact as well, just in case.

Kay stepped up when my usual cat sitter cancelled before the Christmas break and really put all of my worries at ease. She is a phenomenally attuned cat sitter and so communicative for any needs she had. Thank you, Kay! Couldn’t have enjoyed my vacation away without you!

Teresa was excellent with my large, often anxious, cat Sherlock. Upon my return I found a happy Sherlock with none of the usual stress symptoms. Teresa also communicated frequently and sent photos of all the snuggles and other antics Sherlock got up to each day. It was great to see my cat happy while I was away!

Danyelle is AMAZING!!! Took such great care of my boys over a holiday. Gave me daily updates and even put up with some of their eating "quirks", which isn't always easy. But she was super patient with them and gave them all the love they needed while I was gone. I was so super happy and relaxed to know they were in such great and caring hands. Heck, even just the trek to my trash can for litter box cleaning was an extra effort in and it's self. Can't recommend Danyelle enough!

I was extremely hesitant to leave my cats with a stranger - my cats are my children in a lot of ways - but as soon as I met Kylie it reassured me I made a good choice as to who I can trust with my two boys. She made me feel relaxed, at ease and was extremely reliable/communicative. She obviously has had a lot of experience caring for animals/pets and it showed; there was not a moment that I felt uneasy. She stayed longer than she needed to and was very attentive my cats needs. I will definitely be booking future rover visits with her again! She’s the best!

About: My partner and I bring over 10 years of dog care experience and 5+ years managing a stable multi-dog group. We carefully watch body language, work to prevent issues early, and keep feeding routines steady so each dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We’re comfortable working with multi-dog households, different energy levels, and group dynamics. Our focus is creating a safe, structured, and positive environment where dogs can socialize, play, and settle comfortably. My specialty is organization and structure, my partner specializes in socialization and behavioral management. Pet care is part of our daily life. Someone is home throughout the day. We organize our schedule around the dogs in our care so they receive consistent supervision, play, and individual attention. We have a fenced backyard and fenced front yard, giving dogs safe space to move, explore, and play. Inside we provide a dedicated dog room and crates for dogs of all sizes, creating a comfortable and secure place for them to rest when needed. Dogs are thoughtfully grouped by temperament, with attention to proper rest rotation and consistent feeding routines to support balance and comfort. Whether in our home or a client’s home, we focus on safety, supervision, and each dog’s individual needs. We follow established routines, maintain a steady and secure environment, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and at ease.

We had a wonderful experience with Eryn while away on vacation! She was exceptionally attentive, keeping us updated and giving us total peace of mind the entire time we were away. Our roommate mentioned how respectful and completely unobtrusive she was while in our shared home. Most importantly, our pets loved her; they've actually become noticeably more social and outgoing since her visits. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and will definitely be booking her again!

Ashley is an incredible pet sitter! She is great with my two cats, one of whom is very timid and the other who gets a bit anxious when left alone, so we’ve always so appreciated having her there and knowing they’re in good hands. She’s also great at providing us updates, checking on our home, and doing any little tasks around the house that she notices, like sweeping around the litter boxes, watering plants, etc. It’s a genuine comfort knowing that both my pets and my home are safe and taken care of when we’re away. She’s very dependable, gives great updates, and is proactive about getting to know your pets and doing things that will make them feel comfortable. Even when something isn’t specifically asked of her, she goes above and beyond. We’re so thankful to have found a pet sitter who we feel is so caring, and I couldn’t recommend her more if you’re looking for someone to look after your pets!
