“This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous at the beginning. We met Jaime a few days before hand and we instantly knew our kitties would be in great hands! Jaime sent photos and assured us that they were doing just fine. We even last minute extended our trip 2 days and Jaime was very kind and understanding. 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Jacqueline did a great job taking care of my two cats. She arrived early every day at the exact time I requested, and she followed all of my cat-care instructions perfectly.”
“This is the 4th time we have used Carolyn to help care for Clove on long days we have been away from her. When I booked this visit it was kinda last minute to schedule. Carolyn was so accommodating. You can tell how much she loves animals. Carolyn is so amazing making sure Clove is well taken care of on her walks and before she leaves the house, making sure Clove has plenty of water and food.”
“Doug is amazing. We had just lost one of our cats and was worried about the transition of our other cat. Doug was so patient and kind and gave her lots of attention to help ease the transition while we couldn't be there. He was very communicative and let us know what was going on. I felt our cat was in the greatest of hands.”
“Katie did an excellent job keeping my pets happy, fed and looked after while we were out of town. She was super professional, timely and caring for my pets. I would use Katie again.”
About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!

“Arlene is awesome and did an amazing job taking care of Salem. She also sent me a ton of pictures which I always appreciate. Will definitely be asking her to take care of Salem again.”
“We were so lucky to find Kaitlyn! She responded quickly and was able to take on the job with very short notice, which we really appreciated. From the start, her communication was incredible—she sent detailed updates every visit along with adorable photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did she take great care of our cats, but she also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and even cleaning up without us asking. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and thorough. We’ll absolutely be using Kaitlyn again and couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by puppies, kittens, and all kinds of animals. I was there when my first dog gave birth and helped raise the puppies, learning how to train them along the way. This past year, I’ve cared for my senior dog when she had trouble walking and caregiving. I’ve also had the pleasure of walking and caring for dogs of all sizes for several families. With my lifelong experience with dogs and cats, I know exactly how to make sure your pet gets the best care! I currently have two dogs of my own and absolutely love spending time with them!! They are my babies I am available for pet care during the evenings and early mornings, and I’m also available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) for dog walks or weekend dog sitting. I take care of pets in a cozy, safe space. I make sure they get their walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I stick to their feeding schedule and keep things clean—making sure they have their favorite toys around and giving them the love and attention that they need! When I’m at your place, I follow your pet’s routine to keep things as normal as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’ll also make sure the place stays clean and tidy, and your pet gets all the attention they need while you’re away!
About: I have three years of experience working at a veterinary clinic. I have the ability to care for pets with special needs as I provided round-the-clock care for my dog after her leg was amputated. I currently only work part-time. I am available overnights and weekends. I will keep my availability updated on the app for you to see! :) My goal is to provide the best care for your pets. I think it is important to keep their routines the same while you are away. If this means feeding a specialized diet or even letting them sleep with me, I am happy to do that!
About: I have spent my whole life loving and caring for all kinds of animals. Dogs, cats, horses, snakes, turtles, rabbits, birds, you name it! I love animals and would love to care for yours :) I have a hybrid position at work, so I am in-office 3 days a week, but I have time outside of that to care for any animals that need it! I have a 3 year old Standard Australian Shepherd, Sunny and chunky cat named Mittens who I just adore! I care for them daily, feeding, playing, brushing, giving treats and training. I love training my dog Sunny to do cool tricks. I care for my sisters Maine Coon and tabby cat and my other sisters horses when they're away. I do my best to make sure they're comfortable and feel loved as though they are my own.

“I can't recommend Holly enough! She is absolutely the best with my little dog, Max. From the very first moment, it was clear that she treats him like her own.

Whether it was going on walks, playing his favorite games, or just cuddling on the couch, Holly always made sure he was comfortable and happy. It's such a relief knowing that Max is in such loving hands when I’m away. Holly’s genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and I truly feel like he’s not just being cared for, but also loved and cherished.

She’s sweet, soft and cuddly with the animals and makes sure they’re fed on time and if they have health issues, made sure the dogs took what they needed. Please give her a try and you will be satisfied just like I was!”
