“Haley did an excellent job at taking care of my dear Elton John! He was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I was nervous about leaving him for the first time. But her expertise at medication management soothed my nerves completely! She was so communicative and thorough and I highly recommend her services to anyone! Thank you so much Haley!”
“Emma was super friendly and communicative. We unfortunately had to cancel our rover visit last minute though she made the effort to come over ahead of time to meet our cat and take notes on what she needed. We definitely look forward to utilizing her services in the future!”
“I would definitely hire Barbie again. Marvelous cat sitter, got along really well with my Annabel Lee, spent time with her, and did everything we asked. Very responsible, I wouldn't hesitate to book her if you need someone to take care of your pet!”
“Jenna is an absolute angel! I could write a book about how magical she is but for now, I'll give you some of the highlights. She is sweet and soft spoken which was a blessing when she stayed in my home to take care of our 2 kitties, Squeaky and Jingles. Squeaky is pretty socialable but Jingles hides when she hears a different voice in the house. She scares very easily and is afraid, so when Jenna started sending me photos and videos, I was in awe! Jingles was hanging out with Jenna, rubbing up against her legs and purring. Jingles came out of hiding and had already decided that Jenna was special. She truly is an animal lover and she took care of their every need and then some! It was amazing how I could relax and not worry about my furbabies in her care. She sent lots of pics and videos twice a day which made me so happy. When we returned, everything was immaculate and everything cat related was spotless. She is so kind and thoughtful....a very rare find! We just love her and my furbabies can't wait to see her again! Thank you again Jenna from the bottom of all of our hearts. We will only have Jenna here in the future! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Kristie was amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and I’m so glad we chose her! Our cat usually takes a little while to warm up to new people, but she went right up to Kristie on the very first day! It made us feel so comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We’ll 100% be using Kristie again in the future!”
About: *my prices are flexible depending on the care needed* I’ve had the pleasure of caring for animals for over 10 years and have experience with a variety of species, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My passion for animal care led me to complete a semester of Animal Science coursework at Bristol Community College, where I gained knowledge in animal behavior, health, nutrition, and handling. As an aspiring canine trainer, I’m always looking for opportunities to expand my knowledge and build positive relationships with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide patient, attentive, and compassionate care while treating them like one of my own. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my schedule. My availability is flexible, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible and will always provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and any special needs. I take the time to build trust with every pet, using positive reinforcement and patience to help them feel comfortable. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I had such a great experience with Alyssa! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared so much about my pets while I was away. I received updates and photos that gave me peace of mind, and my pets looked happy, comfortable, and well taken care of when I got home. It’s obvious she genuinely love animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust Alyssa again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
“Kathy was so amazing to my kitty!! She is super attentive to the little things and really cared about my boy. I would 100% recommend her and hope to use her services again in the future.”
“I was nervous leaving my cat Bowie for our first trip away, and I think Bowie was a little nervous at first too, but they quickly became good friends! Nicole was super communicative throughout our trip, and we truly felt like we had left Bowie with a trusted friend. It gave us so much peace of mind. We will 100% be booking with Nicole again!”
“Carissa took excellent care of our two cats! Sent daily photos and texts which is so reassuring! She even put down ice melt for us when we got snow. Highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”
About: My own dogs have lived a wonderful life. They know their boundaries and are spoken to with love and affection. I give them plenty of exercise and am sensitive to their safety and comfort (especially in the heat of summer). As of June 13th I'm on summer vacation from work. I'm totally flexible until September. Other than a few appointments, I'm available for your pet needs. I live in a quiet, safe, neighborhood, perfect for dog walking. I have a huge yard. If I want a fenced yard, my daughter lives down the street with the perfect private back yard.
About: I've had the pleasure to be able to care for and have my own fluffy friend. I have dog sat for several families I used to nanny for, friends and family. I would be so happy to help you and your pet(s) I currently work a hybrid schedule where I can make my own hours so whenever you need someone I can make myself available any day! I cannot board because I have my own little fur baby but I can walk, feed, and care for your pet. Let me know when and where!

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
