“We are so grateful we had her while we were away. She gave my cat and chickens so much love. I’m very picky with my chickens and I truly felt like they were safe with her. We will definitely use her again!”
“Lauren has been absolutely AMAZING! She sent detailed reports every visit with pictures and everything! We even forgot to feed our fish and she happily did that for us! This was our first experience with Rover and we were a bit nervous about having someone we don’t know in our home, but I’m so glad we did and chose Lauren! She’s trustable, kind, and LOVES our pups! We will definitely recommend her to everyone and are so happy we found someone to watch our pups!!! ♥️”
“Ellie did a fantastic job checking in on my beloved feline Figaro. She was prompt, on time, and communicated excellently throughout the entire experience. She even cleaned out our cat box! Excellent service Ellie five stars I will be recommending Ellie's service to all my friends and family!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and grew up with a cat, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve gained experience dog sitting a variety of breeds, including high-energy Australian Shepherds as well as many other types of dogs with different needs and personalities. I’ve also spent time as a foster dog mom, caring for dogs ranging from small Chihuahuas to large Great Pyrenees. My schedule is 100% flexible so I can easily adapt to the needs of your pet! My schedule allows me to be consistent with feeding times, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I focus on keeping each pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible, whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely - feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed - and keep their environment calm and familiar. I’m very respectful of your space and aim to maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away.
“Victoria was great!! She was very quick to respond and available to stop in and check on my kitty Paris while I was away for Thanksgiving. She sent detailed messages and pictures of Paris so I didn't have to worry while being away!”

“I am incredibly grateful to Stephanie for taking such great care of my dog, Joe. From the moment we talked, I could tell she was a true animal lover. She went above and beyond to ensure Joe was happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. Her communication was excellent, providing regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease. Joe returned home healthy, happy, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Stephanie!”
“Lenka always take such good care of our kitties and send lots of pictures, cleans their litter and food bowls, and overall we feel very assured while we’re away! Highly recommend as one of the best cat sitters we’ve ever had!”
“Victoria was very accommodating to my dog’s need. She was willing to do a meet and greet prior to a formal booking. She was very understanding with my concerns. My dog warmed up to her really fast. Victoria was also very sweet with my dog and her comfortability with handling my large dog was very apparent. I feel comfortable booking her in the future.”
“Bryon was very good at communicating and sending updates and pictures. He really cares about your animals and takes the time to learn about them and spend time with them. Would definitely recommend him to pet sit for your animals!”
“Rachel is a sweetheart!!! She did a great job, especially because my old man cat had to be given medication!!! Made an extra trip to check if we were home and if the cats needed her!! We got to meet and she is just as sweet in person!!!”
“Parker did a great job checking in on my cat! He made sure to send me pictures even when she was hiding like the shy girl that she is. Very clear and prompt communication and I felt at easy with the entire process. Thanks Parker!”
“Bridget is a fantastic dog-sitter for our dog with anxiety issues. She gave extra effort to make sure our dog was comfortable and well cared for while we were away. A few things our dog did to demonstrate this - she came inside and she let Bridget pet her (both are rare for non-family members.) She kept me well informed while I was away. I would not hesitate to schedule Bridget again.”
“Kristina was amazing with our puppy Willow!! She helped Willow get more confident on her walks and adventure out a little further each time! She also helped with redirecting Willow’s destructive behavior (of tearing up her pee pads) to a toy! I highly recommend Kristina and will look to her for more sitting in the future!”
“Brenna was super helpful while I was out of town. She kept me updated on my dog’s digestive issues he was having that began after I left. She went above and beyond to make sure he was cared for in my absence. My dog had an accident between visits and she let me know immediately and provided the necessary care to my home so I came back with one less thing to worry about. This is my second time booking her and I feel even more confident that my dog is in good hands with her.”
“Raymond has watched my cats a few times now and he's been wonderful every time! We had a couple of hiccups while we were gone, and he went above and beyond--coming over to make sure the electronic feeder was still working after a power outage and dealing with a water leak in the laundry room. Great communication and always reliable! Oh, and the cats are big fans of him, too.”
Heather Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maddy was so great! We were really nervous about leaving behind our kitten for 11 days but he loved Maddy and was healthy and happy when we came home. Really made vacation more enjoyable knowing he was being taken care of and we loved seeing all the cute photos while we were away. 100% recommend Maddy!
Saunie was really wonderful and considerate during her visits! Something that really stood out and meant a lot to me was the fact that she took into account the weather and our mini-Aussie’s double coat whenever she would take him out for walks :) he is one to overheat quickly, so Saunie gave him his longer walks in the evening. This was our pup’s first time with a pet sitter so Saunie’s detailed updates and pictures were very appreciated as well. Will most likely be booking with her again. Thank you, Saunie! :)
Nicole was fantastic! Our cats needed drop in feedings, as well as diabetic insulin injections for my eldest. Nicole was always on time, was an excellent communicator, and it was such a relief knowing my cat pack got alllll the love while we were out! Can’t recommend her enough!
Gregory was very responsive and had great communication starting from the beginning of meeting our dog and through the end of the drop in visits for the weekend! Our dog Lola was in a perfectly fine mood upon our return - would definitely recommend for dog care and will definitely be booking in the future if needed! Thanks, Gregory!
Rachael was great with Cat! I was nervous when trying to find a sitter as he's shy with new people. She spent time providing a meet & greet, and he seemed fine with her. During the trip Rachael sent photos every day, asked questions as needed, and sent updates about Cat. I had peace of mind seeing how they interacted, their personalities meshed well, and knowing he was okay. Next time we travel, I would definitely book with Rachael again!
Jessica is so wonderful! She has taken incredible care of my pups a few times and is one of the most reliable, organized pet sitters I've ever had. She's definitely on my Rover speed dial :) Thanks Jessica!!!! We will absolutely be using her again whenever she is available.
