“Jessica was wonderful! She took care of our 2 dogs and 3 cats for an entire week while we're out of town. She was punctual, responsive, and went the extra mile. She sent tons of pictures, even though we said we would have spotty service; she still took the extra initiative to give thorough updates. Friendly and very caring with our animals. She even got our more skiddish cats to come out for her! Highly recommend and will be using her again in the future.”
“THE BEST CAT SITTER!! Clio loves her so much and she always spends quality time with Clio when she visits. She also sends great pics that make my heart happy🥰. Always quick to respond. Highly recommend!!”
“Julia was such a wonderful help with our two cats!! When I am away from them I want to make sure they are fully taken care of and she went above and beyond. Her communication was impeccable and her attention to detail was stellar! I hope to continue using her services when we are away as I had minimal anxiety about being away from my babies, I highly recommend booking with Julia for all your pet needs!”

If any changes in my schedule were to pop up, I will let you know at the earliest convenience so you can plan accordingly. I will ensure all your pets needs are met by providing potty breaks, playtime, and being fed or any other needs you may need accommodated.
“Absolutely amazing! So happy to have found Mary, one week before my trip to FL. She gave our two dogs so much love and attention over four days. She will be the first person we reach out to whenever we are looking for someone to walk our dogs in the future. I’d highly recommend her!”
“It was a really great visit! Kathryn properly followed all the things I asked for Heeni. It seems like Heeni opened up to her and likes her a lot!! She cleaned up any mess Heeni made since she is a still a puppy. I can clearly see that she loves and appreciates the fur babies ❤️”
“Sara was great to work with. She was flexible about meeting times, key exchanges, and more. She spent time playing with the cats and sent pictures every day to let us know they were doing well. I'll definitely contact her first when our cats need a sitter.”
“She is wonderful! Our senior pup had a few messes in the house while we were gone and she cleaned them so well. She gave a great report each visit - highly recommend!”
“Cheyenne was super professional caring and looking after our orange cat Cheeto! She visited him everyday we were out of town and gave us updates on what he’d been up to. She even cleaned up an unexpected mess and left our house in better condition. Cheeto seemed to enjoy her visits and I would definitely hire Cheyenne again for all my future pet-sitting needs! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Holly was outstanding in every way. Trust worthy, On time, attention to details, excellent rapport with our extended family of Bruce and Charco. Great price. Highly, Highly recommend. Joey Jones, M.S. Former 18th Airborne Corp United States Army”
About: I have experience caring for large dogs and have had three rescue Labrador retrievers as an adult. I have also had experience as a dog foster working with local shelters. As a recent retiree, I am spending my time between volunteering with my daughter's school and the local humane society, leaving plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. I have a fenced yard and a friendly 7 year-old black Labrador. We have two crates if any of the pups need to be crated. If in your home, I will follow instructions provided to insure that your pup receives the proper care.
About: I have taken care of foster dogs for a while now and wanted to offer my ability's to others. I have my owner trained service dog and can keep up training with your dog or even work on learning new skills. I may not have the most experience with pet sitting for others animals but I have been fostering shelter dogs for years My job is extremely flexible so I can work when I want for the most part. This allows me to take care of all animals. The animals will never be alone for more than 4 hours at a time. I spend most of my home time, other than sleeping, with the animals playing with them, working on training, giving proper medicine and letting them run around in my large fenced in backyard. If I am at your house for a week or taking the dogs on walks would be the only time I'll be away from my own home besides work. I can then spend the time I would be home with your animals. I have a husband to watch my own animals I have 2 cats and a resident dog. They are friendly and can keep your pup and kitty company! If your dog is a bit reactive with other animals I do have a room dedicated to the dogs I foster and care for. As of current I am taking a break from fostering to care for animals on rover so there will be no dogs with unknown temperaments. If I do have any dog reactive dogs to care for I will put resident dog up in my bedroom while I take out and play with your pup, they will never be alone long
About: I began caring for my cat, Tori, who has allergies and respiratory issues, and through that experience I learned how to give medication, monitor breathing, and provide gentle emotional support. Taking care of her taught me how deeply pets trust us and how important consistent, loving care is. I want to bring that same compassion to every pet I look after. I currently don’t work part time or attend school, so I have plenty of time every day, including weekends, to care for your pets with full attention and love. 1️⃣ Clean, safe, and caring pet care 2️⃣ Safe, gentle, and loving care 3️⃣ Hygienic and caring pet service 4️⃣ Clean hands, safe pets, happy hearts 5️⃣ Gentle care with safety first
“A GREAT Drop In visit. Holli arrvied and Vincent came right up to her. Jules was a bit standoffish, but as soon as he heard the treat bag being shaked, came running and checked Holli out. Deciding she was an acceptable human, allowed himself to get a few strokes and rubs, before backing off. Thank you Holli. We will definitely use your services in the future.”
“My cat was very happy to spend time and play with Svetlana during my 3-week vacation. Svetlana visited him daily and managed all of the necessities plus play time with my cat. I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend her services.”
About: Dogs show us the true meaning of actions speak louder than words. They love so hard without even telling us, but showing us every day. Before 4 I have open availability M-F so I can go spend all the time I can with everyone. We can go on walks, go find new adventures. With time management and care. They are like children, then need a set schedule. I would love to make schedules for everyone so that they are calm and collected.

We have been with Kathryn for almost a year! She is the absolute best sitter you could want. She communicates quickly and gives the most thorough updates on my dog. She provided enrichment and love to my dog Fern. We are so sad to be moving this month and leaving Kathryn, we can only hope to find as good of a sitter the next place we live.
Julia was super proactive, checking in a few days before the booking, always giving detailed report cards and great photos of the my kitties. Went above and beyond each visit. Would definitely recommend Julia and definitely will be requesting her next time we are out of town!
Rachel is an ideal cat sitter. I used her services for 10 days and she was committed, communicative, thorough, and great with my cats. This was my first experience with Rover, and Rachel stood out as a provider immediately because of her significant experience and her high customer approval ratings. She responded promptly to all of my messages, showing a willingness to work with my schedule. During my vacation, Rachel met every commitment. She came to my house twice each day to look after and feed my cats, and she sent me notes and photos explaining what they were up to. She helped my nervous cat acclimate and ensured enough time for her to eat, overcoming my biggest concern about this experience. Through all of her communications, Rachel was helpful and professional. She made it clear that she was interested in the welfare of my cats. Rachel is a very good cat sitter. It can be difficult to trust a new person to come into your home and care for your beloved animals, but Rachel did both and earned my trust and appreciation. I highly recommend her for catsitting services and will definitely seek her availability the next time I travel without my cats.
Extenuating circumstances left our dog with diarrhea while we were gone :( Erin not only staying in close contact with us, answering our questions about what she saw and requests for pictures to see if he had other symptoms that meant we should get him to the vet for the rest of our vacation, but she took the time to clean the accidents he did have between the 2 daily visits we booked. She went above and beyond in a really "shitty" situation, and we are SO thankful.
We had a fantastic first experience using Rover thanks to Lucy! As first-time users, we were a little nervous about having someone come into our home while we were out of town, but Lucy made the entire process feel easy and reassuring from the start. She responded to our request almost immediately and scheduled a meet & greet within just a few days, which really helped put us at ease. While we were away, Lucy came by daily to take care of our cat, and she did an excellent job. It was clear our cat was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and attention she gave. Knowing that Lucy has cats of her own and also works at an animal hospital gave us an extra level of confidence that our pet was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking with Lucy again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsive, and caring pet sitter!
Paige did a great job taking care of the cats. She surprisingly made a connection with them on their first meeting, despite their shyness. She is truly a cat whisperer! Bonus: she got a photo of one of my shyer ones that is my current favorite pic of them. Thank you Paige!
