“What was supposed to be a regular drop in visit turned into an emergency, our dog ended up getting into bag of Cosequin. Jess couldn’t have handled it any better. She called poison control for us, stayed on the phone with them for hrs, kept us updated the entire time. Then she even offered to stay the night with our dog to make sure he is ok. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to be there in the time of need. Definitely will be re-booking with her. Thank you Jess”

“I had an excellent experience with Kylie! She was professional, communicative, and provided top-notch care for my cat while I was on a weekend trip. The cute pictures and updates she sent put me at ease, especially since this was my first time using Rover. I would definitely book her again for future needs.”

About: I cared for many pets throughout my childhood and have adopted, loved and cared for 2 dogs of my own. I’m a mom of 3– two boys and our pup Arabella , a street rescue; so sweet and full of energy! I’m also a professional photographer and I’m happy to take a few great photos of your dog while walking or caring for them (for no extra charge). I will show up with my full attention for your beautiful dog or cat—patient, loving and reliable. I am a professional photographer with a very flexible schedule which allows me to care for my own dog and have time to care for others as well. I care for my dog by getting her a couple walks a day and going to the off leash dog park often. We also love to get on trials and hike. She goes most places with me and gets tons of attention. I am aware of her needs and will be of your pets as well. I understand pets can take patience and mostly lots of love.
“Kira, was great! Our sweet old, anxious pup warned right up to Kira. She followed his routine & gave him lots of snuggles. It was such a peace of mind knowing Theo was well cared for while we were away. We will definitely ask Kira to watch Theo again!”

“Lauri was a lifesaver for us! She was able to accommodate 3 days of drop-in visits with our senior dog including administering his meds, and taking him on multiple walks per day. She went above and beyond with great updates and pictures for every visit which put us at ease while out of town. We can’t recommend Lauri enough!”

“Ann did a great job checking in on my three cats over the holidays. I so appreciate knowing they are looked in on and given a little attention while we are out of town. Thanks, Ann!”

“Janay was great with my two cats! They both warmed up to her very quickly and she sent me a ton of pictures each day. She did everything asked and even managed to make sure my cat with asthma got his inhaler everyday without issue. I came home to two happy and well cared for kitties”

“Steve has amazing personality and my cat warmed up to him automatically. I feel safe leaving my meowies with him and looking forward to how he’ll develop his bonding with the rest of when I am gone.”


About: I have helped care for dogs from their early puppy days all the way through end of life support/care. While my home currently doesn’t have any pets of our own, I am so excited to watch over and love your pets! I live in a very quiet neighborhood with tons of long walk opportunities. The house gets great sunshine and there are tons of spots for naps. I look forward to caring for your fur babies! I work full time from home, and am able to watch your pet easily during the day. I’m able to swing by and pickup/drop off as needed, and have time during the day to take any walks as needed. My neighborhood is very quiet and very dog friendly. Tons of sidewalks and parks, with minimal street traffic. The house is not currently fenced in, but I am planning to put one in during the spring (2026)!
“My cats were very comfortable with Emma, as evidenced by their rushing to her, and staying in the same room. I have no clue how she got such a great picture of Sunny! They enjoyed playtime and I did see food in their bowls when we returned, and no odd smells. She left the key where it was and took a pic, which was a great touch in case the girls thought it could be a play toy after leaving. Thanks again, Emma!”

“Isabel is extremely reliable and patient with our new puppy. She comes over when she says she’ll come, and she takes lots of pictures and notes during her visit, which we really appreciate. She plays with our dog inside and outside and makes sure he gets some good attention while we’re away at work. Would highly recommend her!”

“Krista was awesome! One of my cats can be a little anxious and unwelcoming to new people, and Krista did a perfect job of following my instructions to accommodate him. By the end, I could see in the daily pictures that my cat really warmed up to her. I'll definitely be requesting cat care from Krista again!”

“Iva and Eduardo watched my two kitties over the holidays and they went above and beyond with their care! They were able to pill my (occasionally naughty) kitty twice daily, kept me informed, gave them tons of love / play and sent me lots of pictures! Would highly recommend for an above spectacular job!”

“Kaylyn was my first cat sitter using the app. She was super responsive came by before we left which really helped trusting I was leaving my cats in good hands! I loved the daily pictures! Would definitely book again!”

“Grace did an amazing job with our kitties, she sent pictures and updates everyday which we really appreciated while out of town. One of our cats who is usually very shy/timid loved Grace immediately! We also had cats who were still being introduced and needed to be kept separate while we were away, Grace made sure to give everyone plenty of attention while keeping them safe in their own spaces. I would absolutely recommend Grace to anyone looking for a cat sitter, and we will definitely consider rebooking with her in the future!”

“Annalise did a great job taking care of my cat Gus! She was consistent in the time she came to feed him and even added an extra visit when our travel plans changed!”

“James was wonderful with our senior kitty Mocha! He showed so much care for her when he met her, and he took care of her special routine needs. He was incredibly timely even on a big holiday. We felt so at ease and we will certainly book again! :)”

About: We will welcome your dog into our family while you are away. My husband and I both work from home, and one of us is here at most times on weekdays. . Our beagle/ heeler mix (Obi) loves to play in our fenced yard, and then settle in for a long nap on one of the big dog beds in my office. Obi was born Jan of 2018. We also have 2 cats, Milo and Potato awho re used to being around dogs, and love to play chase all around our house. Your dog will be treated like a part of our family while in our home, or if we are walking / checking in at your house. We accept puppies who may need more frequent potty breaks, as well as older pets who may need medications, or special feeding. I work from home, and pet care will be intermixed with my calls and meetings. My husband also works hybrid, so he is available to help fill gaps, as well. I have a fenced yard, one dog and a cat. So, your pet will have no shortage of social interaction when they are in our home.
Glacier Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
It was a wonderful experience having Laura look after my cat Oliver again. She’s watched him before, so it was really nice knowing he was with someone familiar. She was kind, easy to work with, and very communicative while I was away, as always. I loved the thoughtful photos and messages she sent, and Oliver clearly loved her too!

Monica was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She watched her for a few hours and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and the clear love she has for animals. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! I can’t wait to book with her again the next time we need it
Margaret was great! I had to leave short notice and she first came out to meet my cat (and chickens) and go over everything. She was always prompt with replies too. I had an emergency the night before I was leaving due to the freezing cold and she even made an extra trip out to help when I was away. Even though her focus was on the cat she still assisted with my chickens and made me feel comfortable about them with the weather being so brutal. I really appreciated the extra effort she put in and I feel that she really helped me out. I would definitely recommend her to anybody.

Janay was great with my two cats! They both warmed up to her very quickly and she sent me a ton of pictures each day. She did everything asked and even managed to make sure my cat with asthma got his inhaler everyday without issue. I came home to two happy and well cared for kitties

Isabel was the greatest! We are so lucky to have found her- especially since it was less than 24 hour notice. She sent awesome photos and our puppy got all his wiggles out walking and playing with her. She really goes the extra mile to form not only a connection with our puppy, but also us as owners. I highly recommend working with Isabel, and hope we get the chance to work with her again soon (and so does our pup!)!
