Madeline did a great job watching our 1 year old Zuko. She was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures! Even dealt with getting into our apartment after we had accidentally locked the door. Would recommend!

We’re ecstatic to get Christine for cat pet sitting. Her care is beyond basic. My cat is older and required medication and fluids and Christine handled that very well. She was consistent with her timing and visits. I really enjoyed all the journaling and pictures of their visits while I was away. Christine has a great sense of animals and offers intelligent advice from her experiences.

Ethan is absolutely incredible! I spent my first week away from my pup in 8 years and he assured me that she was getting top-notch care and affection while I was gone through phenomenal updates, photos and messages throughout the duration of the care.

This was our first time using Rover and Sydney made it an absolutely wonderful experience. She’s extremely reliable, shares pictures and info on how the pups are doing. Both of my dogs were happy and well cared for! We hope to have Sydney take care of our pups again in the future!

Melina is WONDERFUL! She came in 3 days this week and each day did an INCREDIBLE JOB! She keeps me and my boyfriend super up to date with communication, videos, and pictures ❤️ If I have any questions, Melina responds immediately. And she follows any requests for Ivy (our pup) closely. Looking forward to having Melina come back to watch Ivy soon☺️

Hans has taken care of my cat, Bella, on and off for the last few years doing some overnight care but mostly drop-ins. He is a great communicator, sends photos/updates often, and Bella is very comfortable with him. Bella can be a skiddish cat so I'm thankful for Hans' patience and kindness. He's great with animals and I can tell he treats Bella with the same love and respect of his own fur babies.

I've never seen a happier pet than Felix! It's obvious that Filmon puts their pet's well-being first. They provide the best care, from nutritious food and regular exercise to lots of love and attention. It's clear Felix is thriving in their care. Filmon is a compassionate and responsible caregiver that truly respects all animals.

Zara has taken care of our cat, Emmy, on three different occasions. She’s an absolutely wonderful pet caregiver, and I recommend her highly. She’s responsible, reliable, a great communicator, and extremely kind. Her ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures of Emmy’s food bowl and litter box put my mind at ease, and the care she shows by petting and playing with her make my heart glad. I look forward to working with her again!

Natalie has watched my dog and cat multiple times. My dog is a difficult puppy and normally doesn't like people, but seeing Natalie is exciting for her. It's like having a friend come over! She cares for all of her needs and takes special time to make sure she's safe on walks around other dogs. She medicates her when she needs it too!

About: I work remotely, full time, so I am super available for dog walks, and over-night stays. I have experience caring for dogs and cats under the same roof as well, and am versed in doing so even in situations when the dogs & cats might be new to living together and are not fully acclimated. I’m great with keeping care schedules and detailed feeding/medication needs maintained. I don’t currently live in an apartment where I can have pets of my own, so you don’t have to worry about your pets being alarmed by the smell of other animals on me. In truth, working with rover allows me to work/meet other furry friends to care for, to help me fill the void of not currently having a pet of my own in my daily life, right now. I am super flexible Monday to Friday and on weekends, as I currently work a full-time job that is completely remote. I will definitely be able to honor your pet’s scheduling needs. Although I cannot host pets of my own in my living space, I am super familiar with all of the cute parks and dog-friendly scenic walks, to venture. I have a car of my own, and can travel with ease. I’m super available to maintain the space and routine that your pets will need while you are away from them!

About: Hello, dog owners! My name is Krystal; I’m a 38-year-old full-time toddler teacher looking to spend some extra time with dogs and their owners and also be a friend to them as well as a good caregiver for their dogs. I have walked dogs before and I can provide good, friendly care by feeding them and playing with them. I work 8:30am to 5:30pm as a toddler teacher and I have fifteen years of experience with children. With that experience, I can use that in addition to taking care of dogs as if they were my own by taking them on long walks and feeding them whatever food is provided for them. I’m available after 6:30pm on weekdays and some times on weekends if I’m available. I’m currently working full-time so I’ll have some time after work to play with your dogs and on weekends depending on what plans I have. I can keep a watchful eye on your dog closely with whatever routines and schedule you can give me to keep man’s best friend happy.
