“Aura was a life saver. I booked her super last minute , had to go out of town and unfortunately my cat was dealing with an allergic reaction when I had to leave. Aura was very attentive of my cat and always was in detailed in how her condition was coming along. Many pics of course. THANK YOU AURA!!!!!”


“Hannah took such wonderful care of our beloved kitty, Minou, over the holidays (including Christmas and New Year’s) for two full weeks. From the moment we booked, she was flexible, communicative, and totally committed to ensuring Minou had everything he needed—plus plenty of love and attention. Not only did we come home to an extremely happy and content kitty, but Hannah also went above and beyond by helping with a few little household things that popped up while we were away. Her frequent updates gave us peace of mind, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. We’re so glad we found her, and we’ll absolutely be booking Hannah again next time Minou needs a sitter!”


“Alexis was beyond amazing! I needed help last minute and didn’t have time for a meet and greet. She followed all instructions to a T! She was so patient and bonded immediately with my senior dog. She took him on a stroller ride and cuddled with him on the couch. Thank you for giving my old man so much love, I truly appreciate you!!!!”



“Daphne cared for our 16 year old cat for 9 days while we were out of the country. We received detailed updates and pictures twice a day. It was clear that she made a real effort to coax our elderly cat to eat, spent time just sitting with her on her lap,and making her feel "tended to". She also had no problem administering several medications that she takes, and seemed very competent and knowledgeable. She volunteered to take out our trash bins, and turned on and off our porch lights. Daphne is mature and able to handle any pet or home situation, she communicates effectively, and I would not hesitate to use her again.”


“Ashley was so easy to work with and took such good care of my boy. It was my wedding night, and my dog was the ring bearer, but I needed someone to take care of him for a little while during the reception. She made the process so stress free. Just an invaluable peace of mind during the chaos of a wedding! Would highly recommend her to take care of your furbabies.”


“Jailah was incredible! She helped me when I made several errors making my first booking. She sent great pics and was great with the dogs! Definitely will book again:).”


“PSA: BOOK E FOR ALL YOUR PET NEEDS🗣️🔊 I cannot say enough good things about E. We will use them everytime we go on vacation. E came to our place before our trip to get a vibe of the cats, learn the home, and just understand what we needed. It was so professional and made us feel so safe and comforted to leave our cats with E. Immediately, our cats loved E! Every visit, E took so many pictures, and that really helped us on our 2 week vacation. They did everything we asked them too - they tailor their care to what you need them too. E loves all pets and we could immediately feel that. They also caught a big problem! Our AC went out while we were gone, and E let us know, and fixed it by finding the circuit box to turn it back on. That gave us peace of mind and saved us $$$$ to not have to call a HVAC guy. Overall, do yourself a favor and book E!!!🥰🥰”


“This is the second time Allegra has watched our two chihuahuas, Cookie and Lucy, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her. She is incredibly patient and kind with both dogs—especially important with our chihuahuas, who can be a bit particular and take time to warm up. Allegra is also 100% reliable and always communicates clearly, which gives us peace of mind when we’re away. Her Rover cards are detailed and thoughtful, with plenty of photos and notes that show she really understands and cares for each of their personalities. We can tell our girls are comfortable and well cared for every time Allegra visits. Highly recommend!”


“Deana was great. She sent tons of pictures and my cat seemed to warm up to her very quickly. She gave a detailed report on everything my little buddy was up to. Shes a lifesaver!”


“Sarah is a wonderful dog sitter! She did drop ins for my dog on short notice and followed all instructions perfectly. My dog is quite shy and easily startled. Sarah worked with him to make sure he was comfortable with her and even got him to walk a little further with her everyday. I definitely recommend her to take care of your pet!”


“Victoria is great! She has watched my corgi several times, but this time, we added our cat into the mix! She kept me well informed and even had to deal with a very sad and mood kitty! She is the best sitter we could ever ask for!”


“Margarida did a great job with both my cats, she took her time with them while they eased into meeting someone new. She sent detailed updates and a lot of pictures/videos. They were both in great spirits even after us being gone 5 days. Would definitely book again.”



“Robbin was SO wonderful with my sweet Nola. She provided prompt communication and even was able to extend her stay when I needed her to. She’s great! My baby and home were well cared for.”


“I’m an anxious pet parent and Rea put me at ease with her responsiveness, care, and communication. Seeing that she spent time with my old cat and provided updates allowed me to be away from home without worry. Will book again!”

“Paula is wonderful! She’s very responsive and sent the cutest pictures of my pup during her visits. He’s very shy and she is wonderful with him. Book her if you get the chance!! Unless I beat you to it…”


“Noah is our go to dog sitter whenever we have to go out of town. Noah is reliable, provides regular updates, plays with our pup and ensures that all of our pups needs are met. Knowing that Noah is taking care of our Benji when we’re away puts our mind at ease. I am so happy to have found this service and will continue to book Noah for future trips :)”


About: Growing up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, I have a wide array of pet care experience for animal friends large and small. Frequent dogwalker and pet-sitter with extensive knowledge of care practices. I am a remote worker and student in my day-to-day life, so I can frequently care for pets in my off-time in between classes and while working at home. I will be open in my communication about any issues or special needs that pets will need and trust that clients will communicate any special needs to me.

About: Looking for a pup sitter? Look no further! Currently residing in the riverbend neighborhood, I have a house with a spacious fenced in backyard. I also have 1 friendly dog of my own that enjoy having your dog stay with us too (he is very hospitable)! If going for a long walk or run is their thing, I'm up for it! or if they love to romp around the dog park, even better! I know each dog will have unique needs, so if they'd rather lay on the couch, that works too! I have a full time job M-F, but am flexible when it comes to working from home or coming home during lunch if that is needed during their stay. I'd love to have the opportunity to care and love for your pal! Let's set up a meet and greet to make sure your dog feels comfortable around me and my dog!

Jared V.
“Jared V. would be a fantastic addition to Rover because he brings genuine warmth, responsibility, and dedication to every interaction — both with people and with pets. Having grown up surrounded by pets, he understands that each animal has unique needs and deserves patient, attentive care — whether that means energetic playtime, gentle companionship, or careful feeding routines. He truly understands what it means to provide safe, loving care day after day and has a natural way of making pets feel comfortable and happy. Jared’s warm personality instantly builds trust with both pets and their owners, and his excellent communication ensures that pet parents always feel informed and reassured. His kindness, reliability, and upbeat spirit make him an all-around awesome human being who brightens the day of everyone he meets, furry or not. Jared is exactly the caring, dependable sitter families want for their loved ones.”


Jenny E.
“As long as I’ve known Jenny, she’s been a caring and loving dog mom to her hound, Rigby. She’s also become our families go to dog watcher/walker and helped out with our Lab, Loretta on numerous occasions. She’s always down to help watch her and walk her around the block if I’m stuck at work. Loretta loves getting out of the house and I know I can trust Jenny to take care of Loretta as if she was her own.”
