“Cathy was a great house sitter who looked after our two cats while we were traveling. She communicated really well, drove down to meet the cats before confirming the booking, and showed up on time before us leaving to get access to the building. She also did a wonderful job communicating during our travel/ her stay with the cats. She took care of the cats’ medications needs, too! What I loved most about her is how prompt she is about responding to any messages. She kept us updated with pictures and lots of other information. She has been kind to the cats and tolerated them sleeping in/ on her suitcase, ha ha. We found the cats happy and healthy. She also took care of our place, it looks great- just as we left it. She also washed the sheets and towels and overall left the place exactly as she found if not better☺️ She is a kind person, and very personable. We loved having her as a house / cat sitter and will contact her again when we need her care. Thanks much, Cathy! And see you soon ☺️”


“Janiellee is the best! She kept me updated on my dogs and cat and sent lots of pictures! This was the first time leaving my dogs for multiple days and nights and I was very nervous. She truly put my nerves to ease. I will definitely use her again!!”

“Lee was great with my pups! He earned their trust very fast and spent a lot of quality time with them. He sent me many photos and videos, and updated my constantly so there was never a worry when I was away! I will 100% book again. :)”


“Michele was great. I was a little nervous because Angel just lost his brother and is having separation anxiety. She was very good with him ans stayed and comforted him. We will definitely use her again.”


“Lily, you are a superstar. I can travel with ease and feel completely worry free knowing my babies are in your care. You send tons of pictures, and are consistent with your communication. You are so affectionate with them and you follow all instructions for their care perfectly. I’ve never been more grateful for a Pet Sitter and my babies. Absolutely love you.”


“This was our first experience with Rover and Kiana for an overnight (13 nights!), and we were really pleased. We will definitely entrust our girls and home to Kiana in the future. She took good care of both, and we were happy to receive daily updates from her.”


About: I own an Australian Cattle Dog...best dog ever! We run, play fetch, walk for hours every day. She's great with other dogs & listens very well to commands. Once she gets to know a dog and feels comfortable, she will treat them as her pack and look out for them. I have a car and can pick up/drop off your dog at an extra cost (see my rates when you book). I am also extremely patient with dogs and believe in positive reinforcement. I don't take dogs with aggression and dogs that are not house trained. With that said, if you choose me as your pet sitter or walker I will do my very best to keep you and your dog happy. I highly recommend a meet and greet to make sure your pup gets along well with mine. Looking forward to hosting your furry pal :) Your Rover sitter, Mihaela

About: I’ve been a proud cat mom to Pepper for 5 years and have years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. From high-energy pups to mellow seniors, I understand how to meet each pet’s unique needs. I’m reliable, gentle, and treat every animal like family — whether it’s walks, feedings, or just keeping them company. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s daily check-ins, weekend stays, or last-minute walks, I’ll work with your routine to make sure your pets are cared for and comfortable while you’re away. In your home, I follow your pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free — whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, medication, or just quiet companionship. I always respect your space, clean up after myself and your pet, and send regular updates so you know they’re safe and happy.

“Amariani did an exceptional job at taking care of our three standard poodles and house sitting while we were on vacation. It didn’t take long for our dogs to warm up to her. She took note of each of the dog’s personalities making sure they are happy and their needs are met. We also very much appreciated the daily reports, inquiries, feedback and many photos from her. She made sure our dogs and the house are clean when we got home. I highly recommend Amariani and would definitely book her again.”

About: I bring years of experience caring for pets of all ages, with special attention to puppies and senior animals who need extra patience, gentleness, and care. I’m dedicated to creating a safe, happy environment, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. I provide a safe, welcoming environment with a fully fenced yard where your dog can play freely. I have a friendly dog who loves making new friends. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow any special instructions to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. I treat every pet like family, with lots of love and attention.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 6-8 years, preferably medium and small dogs but now that I’m older I’ve taken care of the larger breeds now. I worked as an animal groomer on the side for mainly friends, family, and people within my neighborhood and communities I’ve been apart of! I specialize in nervous dogs too especially during holidays, fireworks, and sick babies, if you have any dogs that need medication, fed a certain way, or any special needs, I’m the girl for you! I work flex so I can choose my own hours and times to work leaving me a lot of room to tend to the fur babies! I have a fenced yard, two small fur babies( a yorkie and schnauzer) which both are friendly and can keep your animal company especially when being in the backyard. I can easily crate your animals if needed and also crate mine if your animals don’t react to well with others that way they can also have freedom to roam around the yard and house!

About: I have taken care of dogs since 2008, when I thought it would be a great idea to rescue 6 dogs and 4 cats. I took care of 2 special needs dogs that required special food and medicine. I've also cared for a dog with one eye. I have a special place in my heart for dogs. They deserve the love they receive from your family when they're with me. Anything from walking, feeding, exercising, cuddles, and of course treats, if allowed. Every pet has unique needs. I'll plan my day by scheduling visits to different clients' homes at specific times, often including morning, midday, and evening slots to ensure pets receive regular attention throughout the day. I can care for your pet in my home or yours. Maintaining open communication with pet owners is crucial, including updates on your visits through photos or messages, and addressing any concerns they might have.

“First time having a house sitter and SeAnna was great! Felt very comfortable leaving my babies with her and they seemed just as satisfied. Came home to happy animals and a house just the way we left it. SeAnna is a very polite and considerate house guest and the best pet care taker. Loved all the picture updates. Next time we’re out of town she’ll be the first person I reach out to!”


About: I’ve had about eight different kinds of dogs since I was a kid and quickly learned to realise that dogs are like humans and like different things than other dogs I am currently only doing dog sitting and baby sitting so I have a pretty flexible schedule to spend plenty of time with your pups! Whether it’s fetch, a neighborhood walk, or just some fun with their favorite toy, I’ll make sure your dog stays happy and send you daily photos and updates, so you always know how your pup is doing.

Nestor has taken care of my own pet, Shiloh on multiple occasions, and each time I’ve returned to a happy, well-cared-for animal and a stress-free experience. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, ensuring enough play and walk time, or just giving a little extra love and attention, he goes above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend Nestor as a pet sitter/walker on Rover. Pet owners can rest easy knowing their pets are in capable, compassionate hands.”
