“Sarah is the best! My kitties loved her - even the shy one eventually came out to visit! Will definitely use Sarah again when the time comes. Can’t thank her enough for everything she did.”
“Carrie was great with my shy cat - she even came out a few times, which is rare and says a lot! I really appreciated the photo update - they put me at ease knowing my fur baby was being well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our cat over the holidays. She communicated very well and really made it seem like Stan was a top priority! We appreciate her drive to provide the best care possible.”
About: I love all dog breeds and if your senior needs time or extra attention I’ll be there and if a puppy needs extra potty breaks let me know maybe you have a spicy cat I will take my time I pet sit for my friends and do dog train for them but I will be scheduling that around the hours for my Rover account I follow all directions and if I even have a minor question I don’t try to figure it out by myself and make a mistake I’ll make sure I get your permission
“This was my second time having Kelly look after my cats, and I will definitely hire her again! She is communicative and accommodating, and also fed my fish while I was away. My more outgoing cat has a great time playing with her. She also went the extra mile by keeping an eye on some mosquito bites my cat had and applying a bit of medicine.”
About: Hi, I’m Tori! ☺️I graduated with a major in biology and double minor in chemistry and neuroscience, initially wanting to be a PA. I am currently in the process of changing career paths and would love to spend my spare time watching your fur babies!🥰 I believe animals truly make every day better! I currently have a 9-pound Maltipoo named Leo. You will usually find us out strolling (yes, literally strolling in his stroller) somewhere. Leo has severe separation anxiety so I know what it’s like to need someone trusted to watch your animals while you’re away. I will provide frequent updates and pictures because I know that’s what helps me when I’m away from Leo! And I will never be bothered by you checking in☺️ I have a great deal of free time and flexibility while making this career change, I just need as much of a heads up as possible! As previously mentioned, I am happy to provide frequent updates and pictures while watching your pet. I am also happy to help out around your home with whatever is needed while you're away!
About: Most dogs experience separation anxiety when away from their Parents . I am available to care for them in their home, which lessens their anxiety and keeps their daily routines. I deliver loving, peaceful, and safe care and am open to other light tasks such as plant care, mail collection, etc I am available to care for your babies and stick to their daily routines. I understand the importance of routine to keep them happy and comfortable. I respect the owner’s Home as if my own and am glad to assist with other simple tasks such as mail collection, plant watering, trash roll out, etc while you’re away.
About: I’ve had experience with pets pretty much my whole life. I’ve been an overnight dog sitter on and off for about 5 years. I can give medication, take them on walks and give them tons of love. I am patient, compassionate and gentle. I’m a hairstylist during the week, but I have very flexible hours. I can visit in the afternoon and at night. My weekends are open availability. My cats are indoor cats who are very spoiled and get lots of love. They have their individual beds but end up sleeping with me most nights. I keep a clean house with lots of perches and cat trees.
“Makai was AMAZING!! He kept us updated the whole time and sent us the cutest pictures of our two kittens. He was kind enough to bring in some packages that were delivered to our house while we were away. We will definitely book Makai again!!”
About: I currently have four 2 1/2 year old kittens that I bottle fed and raise since they were a week old their name’s are Donatello, Toebeanz, Raphael, and Michelangelo. I’ve owned dogs, 2 pit bulls from the same litter because everything comes in pairs with me lol. Most of my experience has been with mid size to large dogs but I’m comfortable with all sizes. I work 9-5pm but I do wake up a 5:30am so I’m most definitely free for early morning appointments and evening, as well as any time on the weekends. My cats have free reign of the house everywhere except my bedroom because my significant other is technically allergic so it’s as cat hair free as possible, and they’ll turn my bed into a racetrack at 3am.
“Brooke is great! She took excellent care of my cat and was always sure to send pics and updates. I’ve worked with her several times now and always have a great experience!”
“Catie is always great! She is fantastic with communication. She is always on time and Sammy looks forward to his walks. I trust her 100% with my little boy and never have to worry.”
“Sarah did great with my cat and did everything she was asked to do, Lady (the kitty) loved her coming to visit and I will happily use Sarah any time I have any Rover needs :)”
