So happy to have found Cate! I had reached out a week before our trip and was so glad to meet her and show her around prior to us leaving. Our two cats are not friendliest and rarely let others pet them but my heart sang when Cate showed pictures a few days in that the girls had warmed up and actually let her pet them! That’s a big win for us! Thank you Cate for taking such great care of them! My husband and I feel totally safe with the cats in Cates care and will definitely reach out again on upcoming trips!

About: I don't remember any childhood memory without our pets (dogs, pigs, rabbits, turtles, iguanas, hamsters). Animals provide so much love and joy to my heart, and being able to care for your fur babies while you are away or busy would be an honor. I do not currently have animals, which is why I am seeking work with Rover. Your animals are part of your family, allow me to ensure they are well taken care of so you can enjoy your time away without any worries. I have three people who I currently pet sit for when they are out of town. I have been pet sitting for them for year, and would be more than willing to connect you with them if you would like references and validation of my services. I own my own cleaning business, and because of that I have time to step away from the daily grind to provide care to animals. I currently am not offering overnight stays, in my home or yours, as I have a family of my own consisting of my fiancé, our Bernese mountain dog, and miniature long haired dachshund.

Hannah does an amazing job with my labrodoodle puppy. She is timely, follows care instructions, and is very communicative. I would definitely recommend Hannah if you're in need of someone trustworthy and who treats your animal like her own.

About: I'm an active volunteer with a local animal shelter, where I work hands-on with dogs of many ages, sizes, temperaments, I have experience caring for shy, anxious, high-energy, and sensitive dogs, and I'm comfortable with reading canine body language, building trust, and providing calm, reliable care tailored to each dog's needs. Pet care is part of my regular routine through weekend availability when I'm off work. I plan my schedule around providing attentive, consistent care, including walks, feeding, enrichment and companionship, so each dog receives focused, unhurried attention. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and preferred activities. I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious pets, by moving at their pace and reading their body language. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm, attentive interaction, whether that means exercise and playtime or quiet companionship. In a client's home, I respect their space and ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.

About: I have three fur babies, golden retriever x2, and a blue heeler mix. Having animals is such pure joy. The dogs run the home, I just live here! Dog hair and slobbery kisses … I wouldn’t want it any different. My fur babies are happy and very generous to other animals. We have fun here. So bring your dog over, let them jump on the couch, and play with my pups! I work part time, but have a very flexible schedule. I have two boys at home that would give your pups all the love they need. I have a small fenced in yard for your pups. We enjoy talking walks, and playing fetch. My fur babies are the sweetest things and will get along with your pups!

About: I grew up with cats and have helped care for friends and family's pets for overnights. I drive for animal rescues to help save animals at risk of euthanasia. Most of my recent experience is with puppies and adult dogs but feel confident I can help with most any pet. I am a huge animal lover and can't wait to meet you and your pets. I have varied availability to care for pets with walks, drop ins, and overnights. I have kept animals in my home for friends and family. I have also stayed with animals in their home. I can administer meds but not injections.

About: I've connected with dogs since I was a child, as well as rehabilitated rescues and trained puppies. Every dog is special to me, and I have cared for senior and special needs pups. My most beloved dog was a black German Shepherd that I trained when I was 13. Even still, my mom shakes her head at how I'm especially drawn to big dogs that look "scary." I can't wait to meet your baby! Need extra support in your morning or evening? I am available with plenty of love to share. My weekdays allow me to spend time with your floofs in the morning and late afternoon/evening. Your pups will have plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection with me! Safety in your home and for your dog is my top priority. I will spend time getting to know your dog, and will make sure they get everything they need as you see fit: water, food, petting, snacks, play with toys, movement/walking, you name it! I will respect your home and leave everything as I find it.

About: I have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. The largest dog I've handled was 120 lbs. I'm down to cuddle or go on a walk, whatever your pet needs. I am a college student so I am flexible daily and can come by your house when needed. I am free on weekends and most weeknights. I would love if you can give me specifics on your pet's routine and any behavior I should know about. I have some experience with oral medication if your pet ever needs it.

Great Job!!! Happy to come home and not have the house a mess as it has been from previous sitters. While she never saw my cat (she's very skittish around strangers), Adrienne did a fantastic job of keeping in touch with us while on vacation.
