“Brooke was absolutely amazing with our pups! She took such great care of them and left the cutest little note and photo for us when we got home. She was on time for every visit, and sent very detailed reports each time. It gave us total peace of mind on our day trip south knowing our dogs were in good hands. We will definitely be using Brooke again and highly recommend her!”
About: As a young child in kindergarten , I told my mother I wanted to become a “dog catcher”. I have no idea what that is but I know I have always had a passion for dogs. I have two dogs of my own. I have always had dogs around me growing up so i have a lot of experience on caring for them. I work from home full time . My working days are M-W & then on Saturday. I’ll have plenty of time to watch your pets I have a fenced yard and I also have a little yorkie chihuahua mixed dog that lives with me and gets along well with other animals.
“Thanks so much, Haley! We loved the updates and you took incredible care of our little ones!!! They really like you a lot. We can’t thank you enough. Looking forward to having you come out on our next trip!”
“Tania did an amazing job watching over our pets the 4 days we were away. She had great attention to detail, checked in regularly with updates, and followed the instructions perfectly. Aspen seemed to love Tania! We would definitely recommend her to anyone and we plan on having her watch our pets again in the future!”
“Brianna was AMAZING with Winnie! She did a drop-in visit and took such great care of her—played ball with her outside, made sure she had fresh water, and gave her lots of belly rubs and love. 🥰 She also uploaded 3 adorable pictures which made me feel so reassured while being away. I can tell Winnie was comfortable and happy with her. I would absolutely book Brianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring! 💕🐾”
“Bryce and his wife were able to come visit my kitty with only a days notice. They took their time to let him warm up to them and sent me pictures and great updates. Thankful to have some peace of mind that he was doing ok while I was gone.”
“Isis took great care of two of our dogs while we were away! She arrived promptly for every scheduled drop in visit and provided lots of photos of our fur babies. We would gladly recommend her and choose to use her again in the future!”
“Chris was awesome and took such great care of my fur babies! I got daily updates and though I know they likely ran and hid when he arrived each day, he let me know he spoke with them and played with their toys for a bit so they could hear. Upon my return, I got a warm welcome from both of The Boys and could tell that they were more relaxed. I didn't get the cold shoulder treatment as I typically do. I will definitely call on Chris again and I would highly recommend him!!”
“Kaja’s is so patient and gentle! My big boy absolutely loved her, we will definitely be booking her again. She gave us time to get some things done without being interrupted.”
“Hirono is an absolute rock star and we are so happy we found her to check in on our cat for us when we are away for several days at a time. You can tell she is a true cat lover. She is super dependable, easy to work with, remembers things well, and we LOVE that she always sends us several pictures and an update when she comes to visit our cat. We have a super shy cat, yet he warmed up to her very quickly, so she has been a perfect fit for what we needed. She will continue to be our first call when we need someone to care for our cat. Thanks for everything, Hirono!”

Thank you have a good day
“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing with our three dogs! Before her week-long stay, she took the time to do a meet and greet, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely cared about getting to know them and their individual needs. Throughout the entire week, she kept us updated with daily messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When our youngest pup developed an upset stomach, Cheyenne went above and beyond by cooking her rice, making sure she was comfortable, and keeping us informed every step of the way. Not only did she take exceptional care of our dogs, but she also treated our home with incredible care. She cleaned up after them, and on her last day she even cleaned our carpets and mopped the floors so we could come home to a spotless house. That level of thoughtfulness is something you just don’t expect. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Cheyenne again. As much as I want everyone to know how incredible she is, part of me wants to keep her our little secret! 😂 Highly, highly recommend!”
“Courtney was always on time, feeding our 4 cats the way she was asked, playing with them and keeping place clean. She was keeping us posted about how they are doing, sending pictures after every visit. We could totally enjoy our few days trip!”
“Matthew was terrific!! By the second day my shy cat was playing with him and getting pets by the third. Thank you for an excellent job! I will definitely book Matthew for future travel.”
“Josilyn is wonderful with animals and a lifesaver! She was able to stop by and give me peace of mind during an emergency. I was in a stressful situation and she took some of the pressure off so that I could deal with what was happening in the moment. Priceless!!!”

We have used Brooke a few times now for drop ins for our mini trips, and she has been amazing every time. Dependable, always shows up on time, and has accepted our last minute requests. I absolutely love her detailed reports and all the photos she sends during each visit. It gives a peace of mind knowing our dogs are being well cared for while we are away. Highly, highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter!
Brianna was AMAZING with Winnie! She did a drop-in visit and took such great care of her—played ball with her outside, made sure she had fresh water, and gave her lots of belly rubs and love. 🥰 She also uploaded 3 adorable pictures which made me feel so reassured while being away. I can tell Winnie was comfortable and happy with her. I would absolutely book Brianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring! 💕🐾
I booked Little Zoo Care - Tania for the first time during a last-minute holiday crunch, and she absolutely delivered. She and her team were incredibly professional, reliable, and attentive with both dog walking and drop-in visits. Before getting started, she did a thorough walk-through and made sure to ask for consent before doing anything, which gave me complete confidence and peace of mind. As someone who has been a sitter on Rover myself and has used many sitters over the years, I can confidently say that Tania is the best I’ve worked with on this app. Her communication, care, and professionalism are truly exceptional. I’ll definitely be booking her again for Reina and Yves. Five stars — highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was worried my dog would have anxiety and a hard time being boarded in a new environment with loud noises, and unfamiliar people. She hasn’t had much human interaction and barks out of fear. I’m so glad i used Rover and met Joseph, my trip was very relaxing, I didn’t have to worry about Bell and her safety at all. I was in full contact with joseph the entire trip and received photos daily. Highly recommend!!
