“Haley did an awesome job caring for my two cats while I was away. They were very shy at first but she persevered and they warmed up to her. I definitely will hire her again!”
“Britany was an amazing pet sitter. She came to our home twice a day for over a week. We have three kittens all under 1 year so there were some special instructions about feeding and keeping them apart at times. Britany went above and beyond to make sure all our cats had the care and attention they needed while we were gone. She gave detailed updates as well as included numerous photos after each scheduled visit. Once you meet her you know she has the biggest heart! We need to go out of town soon and plan to book Britany again!”
“She was amazing! Ivy can be a little bratty, but Emma was awesome and got her to warm up quickly! Will definitely rebook with her!!! Always prompt, kind, and caring!!!”
“Trina went above and beyond with Ghost! She groomed him, fed dinner, played fetch and sent a bunch of videos and pictures and sent an update about their time together! Will definitely continue to have Trina help out in the future 😊”
“Yolena was incredibly helpful and left robust notes at the end of her visit that left me feeling sure that my baby was well-taken care of. She communicated well and even helped with mail without being asked. Would highly recommend Yolena to any pet parent!”
“Amazing with my big, energetic German Shepherds. Minty is perfect for anyone who has German shepherds and is looking for someone who understands their quirkiness, need to exercise, and engagement in play. I would absolutely recommend her services and plan to have her regularly care for my pups!”
“Deborah was available as a last minute first time Rover booking for me. I was a little apprehensive with someone I didn't know to take care of mp pup (as I know she can sometimes be too much) but she did great. She came for a meet and greet prior to first drop in. Friendly kind and easy going. My animals were comfortable right away and she was watchful of my cats attempt to escape. I will definitely book again with Deborah.”

“Monroe has been great with checking on our cats! She always writes a great summary of each visit, and takes precious photos! We feel so confident that our cats are getting so much love when she comes to visit :) we are grateful for Monroe, and will definitely ask to book with her for our future travels!!”
About: I have taken care of my dogs for around 10 years now. My neighbors and my friend's family's friend have asked me to see you, play with, and watch their dogs for periods of time. Sometimes, they have even asked me to give medications to their dog(s). I am currently a full-time university student. During breaks, when I am at home, I am usually the first person to wake up. When this happens, I am the first person to wake my dogs up and feed them in the morning. I am trying to get better about taking them on walks because it is beneficial to both of my dogs as well as myself. As for my dogs, we have an electric fence set up around our home with the appropriate colors. Although as for dogs that I am asked to take care of, I always make sure to check with the owners. People have different ways of keeping their pets safe, and I want to make sure to respect that as much as possible.
“This was my first time using Rover for my 2 dogs and Keira was Great! From my first request to the time she completed the drop in visits she was very professional. She was prompt with responding to me and extremely polite. I appreciated all the communication with updates and pictures. I will definitely ask Keira to help us again in the future.”
“Marisha has taken care of our 3 cats several times. She is conscientious and excellent at comminicating. She has also been willing to feed community cats (at our request) that stop by. She has gone above and beyond on a couple of occasions. I will hire her again.”
About: I will happily care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. Whether your pet wants to lay around or go for a hike, we can do that! I have experience training a dog of my own, so I can maintain your usual basic training/rules if needed. I also have experience giving medication. I have plenty availability in my schedule to fit your needs. I am currently available nearly 24/7. I am not away for longer than 8 hours at a time any given day. I will care for your pet in your own home. I will abide by the rules of your home and look after your pet like they were my own.
“Great! I needed a dog walker unexpectedly and she responded immediately and walked my (very hard to manage) large puppy. I got a nice picture of my sweet and worn out puppy after her walk.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 6. I’m great with all sizes, breeds and ages as I’ve helped multiple dogs give birth and taken care of geriatric dogs. I have volunteered at Our Farm Sanctuary and I currently foster for The Rescue Haven :) My life has always been surrounded by dogs, I love my animals more than anything. The first thing I do when I wake up is take care of the pups, take them on a walk and then give them their breakfast and enrichment bowls/mats. I base my daily routine off my pets! I have fenced in yard and three fixed golden retrievers that are sweethearts. If you use a crate, I do ask that you provide that as I only have 2 of my own and they are occupied by my two youngest dogs. I have to crate Tucker and Dixie because they will eat anything when they’re bored, INCLUDING a wall 🤣 the crate will be cleaned and sanitized before pickup. I also ask that you provide your own food, that way there’s no upset bellies! I have plenty of natural treats if you’re okay with your dog having them
