“Donny is an exceptional sitter and our cats love him and trust me they are a handful and typically not a fan of strangers but Donny and them developed a connection quickly and always sends pictures and provides updates. We won’t use any other sitter on rover. Highly recommend.”

“Shardae hosted our cat while we were away for a weekend. Her communication throughout the stay was excellent - she sent regular updates and photos which gave us great peace of mind. She made sure our cat had plenty of things to do and birds to watch! Shardae was accommodating with pick-up and drop-off times, which we really appreciated. We were especially grateful for her care since our cat was still recovering from jaw surgery, and Shardae handled this with confidence. We felt completely comfortable leaving our cat in her hands and will definitely book with her again for future stays.”

About: I have had dogs in my family ever since I could remember. As an adult, I have had my own dogs for the last five years - Star and Popsicle are my world! I am comfortable walking two dogs at a time, administering medicines, and if there is anything else your pet may need, I have probably handled it myself before. I have cared for other people's pets on and off for years as well and have handled many situations with ease. I currently have a very flexible, open schedule that can accommodate any specific walk times or potty breaks. I can assist any time of day, any day of the week. Hello! Trusting me with your beloved pet means that they will be taken care of with all the love and attention that I give my own two dogs. I am patient, attentive, and kind in my care, and I genuinely love being around any pets! From feeding to enriching walks, I want to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you are away.

My second dog, I’ve had since she was a puppy and has crossed the rainbow at 16 years old. She was also on specific timed medication for the last 3 years. I also take care of my brothers 2 dogs.

All preferences can be catered to your pet such as if you want your dogs away from other pets or if you would like them outdoors more that inside, etc.

About: I've been a dog lover and dog owner my entire life and currently share my home with my 2-year-old Mini Australian Labradoodle.

I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and care throughout the day. I love being active and am happy to take dogs on long walks and provide exercise and playtime for dogs who enjoy being active. At the same time, I understand that some dogs are true companion dogs who simply want to be close to their people. I'm happy to provide plenty of physical proximity, affection, cuddles, and companionship and will always pay attention to your dog's individual comfort level and personality. I also have experience administering medication and caring for dogs with different needs.

I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, and I love having dogs as part of my day. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities.

In my home, dogs will be treated as part of the family and closely supervised. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, exercise, and routines to help your dog feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I am respectful of both your home and your pet's routine.

About: Hi! I’m Candace, a lifelong animal lover and devoted pet parent. I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities from energetic puppies to senior rescues. With a lifetime of experience in pet-sitting, house-sitting, and loving dogs like my own, I truly get animals on a deep level.

I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and safe.

“Teah was great from the start. She came and met my bay girl Buttercup before we booked, to make sure she (buttercup) felt comfortable with her. Immediately, Buttercup started to get close to Teah and felt comfortable around her. Teah also sent me pictures and kept me updated while I was away. I will definitely book again in future trips, if she’s available.”

About: My previous experience was primarily in vet medicine by being a vet technician. I've cared for puppies and kittens all the way to their golden senior years. I've been by their side through happy events to some anxious times, and provided calm through it all. I can provide a safe and calming environment for pets. I also have personal experience with having a dog and cat of my own. Most of my availability is Friday-Monday. I can pet sit overnight, or make a check-in during the day. Please let me know at least two days in advance with information on your loved fur-baby, so I can be prepared and make accommodations for them. I will care for your pets as I do mine. Sometimes they come up for pets and cuddles, other times they require space. I will acknowledge their needs and try to understand their body language to bridge the language barrier. Also, if they need play time, require more attention, or have anxiety, I can accomodate.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Harbor City
It was wonderful to have Roselyn come and care for my pets. She did a great job of communicating any questions she had. After receiving my Rover Card I was very content and excited to see that she did an amazing job of meeting my pets needs. I highly recommend booking with Roselyn if you're in need of a sitter for your fur babies. It was my first ever booking with Rover and I'm glad I chose Roselyn :). I will continue to use her services as long as they are needed and she is available.

Diana helped me take care of my baby cat Sorachi VERY last minute while I went out of town & took great care of her. I really appreciate her super quick responses & detailed notes (& adorable pics) she left for Sorachi each visit she had. Highly recommend her if you need someone to take care of your fur babies. Thank you Diana! :)

Shannon was great! She was able to accommodate my drop in request with short notice and made sure that all my requests were met. She sent videos of my kitten and communicated with me regarding when she entered my home and when she left. I would recommend her to people looking for drop-in sitting and I will definitely use her services again!

Britney has helped with my fur babies (two special needs cats) three times now. Every time has been a wonderful experience for me. I trust that they are in safe and loving hands. Britney is consistent with sending feedback, updates and photos. I will definitely continue to use her help in the future.
She did a wonderful job making sure my cats were comfortable, happy, and fed every day while I was away for a week. She communicated well and was attentive to all the needs of my special-needs cat and my kittens. I felt confident knowing they were in caring and capable hands!

I’ve had Sora take care of my senior cat multiple times already while Im away and feel confident that I’m leaving my cat in good hands. My cat needs to be given several medications and Sora is able to handle that with no issues. She also updates me regularly. Will definitely rebook in the future.
