“Oh my goodness! Our kitties were so happy and SOO healthy upon our return❤️ Even in the photo’s Haley takes we can see they are getting love and attention 🥰 We are incredibly thankful for Haley!”
“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!”

“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.”

“As per usual, Laura is THE BEST!!! I will never be able to move away from Jax because my pups are obsessed with her. She brings out the best in them and they love all the pets she gives them.”

“We’re so grateful for the amazing care our dog, Ace, received while we were away! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”

“Brooke is hands down amazing. Our 3-week work trip turned into a month and Brooke went above and beyond for our 2 beautiful kitties. Many who aren’t cat owners believe that cats are just fine alone and can be for many days at a time. That is a huge myth and our babies are extremely social furballs. Brooke spent an hour every other day with them, playing and cuddling and I know that they were in fantastic hands. She is extremely professional and quick to respond. Seriously don’t look at any other sitter because she is the best you will find in the area. A few years ago when we used Rover for the first time we were gone 23 days, the sitter that we paid to come over every other day decided to just not come by about halfway through our vacation. Our cats ripped through their food bag, their water was just about empty, and litter box overflowing. Animals are the most innocent creatures that rely on us to protect and keep them alive. Brooke not only sent us an abundant amount of photos she really cares about your animal and ensures they are extremely well cared for. I cannot thank her enough and will be definitely rebooking in the future. Seriously do not book anyone else, she’s a rock star I can’t say it enough.”

“Melanie truly loved my cats and helped do extra things like leave out bird food so that they would be entertained while I was away. She cared about making sure they were comfortable and there were no incidents between my two sibling cats who aren’t the best of friends. I’ll definitely book her again the next time I have to be away from home!”

“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!”


About: My wife and I work as a team to care for your pets, whether it’s daily dog walks or drop‑in visits, so your dog always has two reliable adults looking out for them. She is a former teacher and I am a military veteran, which means we bring patience, structure, and attention to detail to every walk and visit. We’ve been around dogs our whole lives and treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well exercised while you’re away. We have two dogs of our own, Ava and Luna, so pet care is part of our everyday life. Ava is a 2‑year‑old cockapoo and Luna is a 4‑month‑old mini poodle, so we’re constantly walking, playing, training, and keeping a consistent routine. Because we already build our weekends around our dogs, it’s easy and natural for us to welcome more pups into that routine. We’re currently available Friday through Sunday, which lets us give your dog focused attention and plenty of walks, playtime, and check‑ins during those days. When we care for pets, safety and respect for your home come first. We always follow your instructions for feeding, walks, crates, and routines so your pet feels secure and knows what to expect. On walks, we use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on other dogs and distractions. In your home, we lock doors, double‑check gates, and leave things just as we found them. We send updates and photos each visit so you know how your pet is doing and can trust they’re being treated with the same care we give our own dogs.
“Adam was a great pet sitter. He obviously has a good energy because both my dog and cat befriended him immediately! Will definitely be requesting him 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! 💕🐾”

“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.”

“She was amazing and so accommodating to my sick kitty while we were away. I could tell that all of my pets were happy and well in her care. I definitely will not hesitate to book Sydni again.”

“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!!”

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.

About: I have a dog that is very loving and I have a nice yard for the dogs to play. I am home full time to care and love for your pets! I like to walk the dogs every hour or so and always make sure they have enough food and water. I have a teenager daughter and a Bichon Frise 8 years old. He loves other dogs "Sunny" is a very friendly dog he gets along with other dogs. My daughter loves dogs and she loves to play with them she is very calm with dogs.

“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.”

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!

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!!

Mariana is fabulous! Not only did she accommodate a last minute booking on a holiday weekend, she loved on my pups and provided updates. They really enjoyed their belly rubs! She made sure to do a meet and greet and took some of their treats with them so they would feel comfortable on the 1st visit. I was initially worried because we have never left our pups in the care of someone we are not familiar with but Mariana took great care in asking what they needed and accommodating our schedule. We will definitely be a repeat client!
