“Joseph did a great job with taking care of Bosco and the house. He was very responsive when I reached out to see how things were going; and he notified me when he thought I might have a concern about Bosco. He took great care of the condo and left it very neat. Great job!”

“Christine is very communicative and consistently updated me on my 3 cats! She sent me pictures every time she came over to care for them. She also left my apartment clean which I'm very grateful for. It's nice to come home to a clean place after a long and grueling flight. Definitely would book her again!”

“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”

“Devaney was great! My dog Junie takes a little extra time to warm up to people- Devaney was patient, allowing Junie to slowly build comfort. Devaney was communicative, sending pictures throughout the weekend, and left my house very clean! Would definitely recommend”

“Alexis was amazing and the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were well taken care of, and they loved her! Can’t recommend Alexis enough!”
“I would give 100 stars, if I could! It was my first time leaving my puppies, and Ishmell was soooo wonderful! He stayed at my house over night, took care of all 3 dogs, and was a great house guest! So happy I found him, and can't wait to use him again!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of the dogs. We came home. Everything was tidy and neat. Everything had been well taken care of and we could tell that our pups were very happy and loved.”

About: I have cared for dogs since I was 8, and I have owned a dog since I was 5. I have successfully potty-trained a puppy. I enjoy being outside and walking, so I'd love to help out in any way, whether by helping them get their energy out or by hanging out with them. I work part-time and have free time between 10 am and 2 pm to take care of your fur babies. I usually use that time to hit the gym or study in the library, but I'm flexible. I can come to your fur baby and transport them to the park or wherever is needed. I can dog-sit for a few hours or a weekend and take them for walks.
“Lee was a fantastic caretaker for our 2 Labradors. One of our dogs is very shy and Lee took the time to connect with her. She was very dependable and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing. She stayed in our home and when we returned, Lee had taken the time to tidy up before we returned with some light cleaning. I would highly recommend Lee.”

About: With experience in both cat and dog sitting, I’ve cared for pets of family, friends, and neighbors, providing attentive and reliable care. My experience includes overnight stays and routine check-ins, ensuring pets receive the attention and comfort they need while their owners are away. My passion for animals shines through in my dedicated and compassionate approach to pet sitting. Being a college student, I fit pet care into my routine with evening care and playtime, ensuring pets get the attention and care they need. I do not currently have pets in my current home. I care for pets in other ways, such as drop-ins and pet walking. Thank you!
About: I’m a social worker, a mom to 2 pit bulls, 1 senior cat, and 1 human toddler. I grew up on a farm and I am a lifelong animal lover. Between the various needs of my creatures at home, and my experience over the last 20 years, I’m well equipped to take care of your babies. I have somewhat flexible availability during the week, and even more so on the weekends. I work from home some days of the week and can pop out as needed. I am attentive to your instructions for care and walk in with eyes wide open. If something seems off, I’ll let you know right away. I’m also happy to send cute pics to reassure you that your babies are doing great :)

“I felt at ease having Cece taking care of my dog for a few days while we were away. I got daily photos and updates and I could tell my dog was happy and comfortable with her. It was a wonderful, worry-free experience and I would love to have Cece back in the future.”

“Ella was so sweet and did such an amazing job with our Rocky boy!! She sent us lots of pictures and videos, and kept us in the loop the entire time. We will definitely be rebooking her!💗 Thank you so much Ella🫶😊”

“Angela did a wonderful job house sitting and taking care of Forest. She kept Forest on his routine with walks and she provided plenty of updates. Forest really bonded with her! I will definitely be rebooking Angela in the future!”

“Octavia was the perfect dog sitter for my mini poodle. I was nervous to leave him for the long weekend, and she provided reassuring updates and photos to let me know my little dude was doing great and having the best time with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Brittany was amazing! I could tell she was so kind to my dogs during the stay and really seemed like she cared. Extremely responsible as well. We can’t wait to have her back!”


About: Ever since I was born, there’s always been a pet in the house. I grew up with cats, dogs, even fish, frogs, and rats! I have been hired to take care of dogs, cats, and chickens a handful of times, and have taken care of my loved ones’ dogs and cats on many more occasions. I am trustworthy and reliable with a flexible schedule, and always ready to treat your creature with the utmost care and affection! I’m a freelance performance artist, and can likely make your schedule work! I am available for visits at all times of the day, including overnight. Whether it’s swinging by for a walk or staying overnight, I’m there! I am attentive to the needs of your pet including bathroom, grooming, exercise, playing, resting, and cleaning up after them. I will make sure I understand from you exactly what your pet needs and follow your/their schedule, while meeting any other needs that may arise during my visit!
Forest Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Esther took wonderful care of both my cat Oliver and my home while I was away on vacation. I came home to a happy cat and Esther kept me updated on him while I was away. I highly recommend her as a cat-house sitter and will definitely seek her out again when I travel.

Avery is great! They were very responsive before our trip, during our trip and when it looked like we might not make it home in time. We got tons of photos of Nashville and Avery kept us up-to-date throughout our travels. Best of all and always a good sign, when we got home, the dog looked up and said, “oh you’re home.“
Alia was amazing, she made sure to give me daily updates and pictures. She was even willing to add an additional drop by visit when our return time changed to make sure our dogs and cats were properly cared for while my husband and I were away for a week. The house was all cleaned up and she even went beyond what we asked of her!

Jenna did an absolutely great job petsitting our dog and four cats for two weeks. All the pets were happy and healthy upon our return and the house was well taken care of - even the plants and the birdfeeder in the backyard. She sent us daily reports with photos, which was very reassuring, being far away from home.

Tea is a frequent house sitter for our highly anxious dog. Tea provides outstanding care and maintains consistent communication while we are out of town (and provides pics of our dog). Most importantly, our dog loves and trusts Tea, which is all any pet parent can ask for.

Aashna is the perfect sitter for my 4 year old Pom Gus. She’s very punctual , and I can tell from the pictures she sent that Gus was comfortable and happy around her. She followed his care instructions really well and communicated regularly. I would 100% use her again and I highly recommend her.
