About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds. I have a deep respect for all animals, including those that are shy or have special needs, and I'm committed to giving every animal the care they deserve. I'm available on most weekends and holidays. I occasionally have weekdays open as my work schedule allows. I will have Fridays available for part of the summer. When introducing myself I allow the animal to approach me first, I take things slow if they're shy or nervous. I'm familiar with dog and cat body language so I can recognize signs of stress. When walking dogs I'm always aware of my surroundings and will adjust the route if I need to.
“Deb was wonderful in caring for our Zoey, like always. She is extremely accommodating and flexible. Our place is always spotless when we come home and she always goes above and beyond in caring for Zoey. The adorable pictures she sends are very much appreciated while we're away, and we know that Zoey is in the best hands while we're gone, which gives us piece of mind. Deb is our go-to pet sitter, and we can't recommend her enough.”
“Miranda is so sweet and my cat adores her! She leaves great debriefs on how the visits go and her communication is amazing. Couldn’t recommend more!!!”
“Deb did a great job watching my kitties! She was very communicative and asked questions beforehand so I immediately felt relieved and knew they would be in good hands. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Caiti is great! I had never left my dog alone for more than 1 overnight before and I was really nervous about it, but Caiti was patient (with both me AND the dog haha), sent me tons of updates and I came home to a happy and well taken care of pup. Thanks, Caiti!”
“Hannah did an amazing job again looking after our elderly kitty! She had just recovered from an illness so we really appreciated the extra attention and detailed updates.”
“Sara did a great job spending an hour a day with our cat, Lemon for the week we were away. We could tell Lemon would be in good hands when I first let hold her and saw how both of them responded. I highly recommend Sara.”
“Merrisa was a fabulous sitter!! Her dedicated care and thoughtful communication left both our beloved Diego and us at ease! Highly recommend!!! Thank you for everything 🫶🏾”
“Ava was incredible with our boys! She communicated with us the whole time, played with our cats a lot, and made sure to send plenty of updates while we were away. We felt very comfortable having her watch our cats for a few days, and they definitely appreciated having her spend time with them!”
About: For a year, I walked my neighbor's Cavalier King Charles spaniel while she was recovering from a hip injury, until she could walk better. She and her daughter greatly appreciated my help and have said to me that their dog Cooper has been so much happier ever since he met me. I am a college student that goes to school 5 days a week from 7am to 2 pm. I can do early morning walks before 7am since I am a morning person, and I can do walks or come over after class. I am free on most weekends. I cannot bring pets into my home since I have two cats that are not very pet-friendly. But I can do all the care you need me to do at your house.
“Alexandra took such great care of our kitties while we were away! I love how thorough she is. We received many pictures of the cats getting snuggles and playing. She made us feel so confident that they were doing well and taken care of while we were away!”
“Natasha did a great job with our kitties! This was our first time using the Rover app and we were a little nervous about it, but Natasha sent us updates that put us at the ease (including letting us know when we had packages delivered) and we came home to happy kitties. We will definitely reach out to her the next time we need a sitter.”
“Sophia did an amazing job watching my 2 dogs! She sent detailed updates, lots of photos, and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable while I was gone for 10 days. She maintained a high level of communication and I never had to worry. I highly recommend her for taking care of any pet you need!”
About: I have been dog sitting dogs since I was a teenager. I have experience with many different breeds both big and small. Since I don’t have any pets of my own right now I love being able to go meet new furry friends and play with them I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I can make my own schedule based off of the needs clients may have. Depending on when your pets need care I can adjust my schedule accordingly It is my pleasure to keep your pets company while you are away. I am happy to help out with whatever is needed. I am reliable and will keep your pets company while you are away.

Helderberg pet parents share their Rover experiences
Deb is the best pet sitter; she consistently goes above and beyond while taking care of our cat. She’s sends the most adorable pictures, sends updates, communicates extremely well, is reliable, and leaves our place looking spotless. We have such piece of mind knowing our cat is in great hands while we’re away. Deb’s awesome!!!
Juliana was wonderful with my 4 year old cat, Georgia. I booked her for the first time for a 6 day trip and she was punctual for each visit, sweet to my baby and sent lots of photos. I would recommend her and will definitely be booking her again. Thank you, Juliana!
Alicia did an excellent job! Throughout the whole process she was very diligent and professional. Her communication was wonderful and she took really good care of our frogs and plants! She provided updates and was respectful of our home. We would happily re-book with her😊
Sophia did an amazing job watching my 2 dogs! She sent detailed updates, lots of photos, and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable while I was gone for 10 days. She maintained a high level of communication and I never had to worry. I highly recommend her for taking care of any pet you need!
Debra showed much concern for my cat who is too shy to come out and interact with strangers. Once she got a sight of the cat at a distance, Debra seemed more relaxed. She was extremely responsible and contacted me daily. If anything, I was the one who was not reliable in letting her know I received her reports. Strongly recommend!
Nina took care of my cat Alfie for a week while I was away. She was a phenomenal sitter! She took great care of him and sent good updates on how he was doing. Alfie even has some new toys to enjoy after her visits. Your animal will be in good hands with Nina!
Caiti was so nice to come over for a meet and greet. This was the first time we let someone we didn’t know watch our dog Ruthie & we really feel blessed to have her take care of her while we were away. It was great to get updates at each visit! Cait is great!
Merissa and Nick are the best pet sitters I have ever had, because they care and go above and beyond!! Besides the very helpful daily updates on my cat’s food, drink, litter box usage and general behavior, they sent me some of the greatest photos and videos of Hodge, many showing them playing with my very social fur baby. When I returned home after a 10-day trip, the house was immaculate and my mail and newspapers were neatly piled up on the kitchen counter. I knew that with Merissa and Nick my cat was getting the best care possible and was very happy, which gave me complete peace of mind to enjoy my vacation.
There is no one I trust my pets (cat and dog) with more than Freedom. I can tell she cares deeply for them and goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies whenever you need someone you can trust!
Juliana has actually been checking on my dog Luna and my cat Lami for several months now! I encouraged her to join Rover so other lucky dogs and cats could have her visit them too. Highly recommend her services. Great communication and sends photos and updates!
Katrina did a great job taking care of our five sweet kitties! She was prompt, friendly, and sent pics of our kitties each day. She handled our asthmatic cat's inhaler like a champ and sent helpful updates about our cats that put our minds at ease while we were away. We felt comfortable having her in our home after a very pleasant and thorough meet and greet and we're looking forward to working with her again soon. Thank you so much, Katrina!
