“Wow! Not many people are able to walk my dog but Cheuk went on walks with our dog, sent multiple videos of him being happy and just gave so much confidence with every check in. The detailed reports were so nice and helpful. Highly recommend and we are so grateful for his help!”


“Michelle provided a detailed description and photos of her visit. First time Rover user, so the updated was very much appreciated! She was patient with my shy/nervous pup and allowed him to interact at his own pace. Great first experience!”


“Linda was wonderful with my pup, very communicative, provided detailed daily updates, and even trouble-shooted a wasp nest for me. My dog loves her and they got along great during her drop in visits! Will 100% book again!”


“Thomas was timely and took great care of our cat. He went above and beyond to clean up messes and take out the trash.”



“This was my first time leaving my pets with a sitter and my first time using Rover, and Rheanne did a WONDERFUL job taking care of my two pets and making the experience one that I was comfortable with. Rheanne was very communicative and responsive and always made sure to leave detailed summaries after visits. She also submitted pictures with my pets each day. Rheanne was such a great sitter, I will absolutely be using her for my two pets the next time I am out of town!”


“Kyle was so great. She made sure our skittish cat was ok, even if it meant searching for him and finding him under the bed. From the start she was so helpful and the communication was great. Can’t thank her enough for giving us peace of mind that our kitty was ok.”


“Bethany is wonderful! I’ve now had her watch my pet a few times and she’s so reliable and communicative. Couldn’t recommend her more. Even when I’ve had last minute changes or sitter needs, she’s able to help. She’s the best!”



“Melissa was great, my pup instantly took to her. Definitely will book Melissa again when we need to someone to come check in on our fur babies.”


“Samantha was awesome with our critters and accepted our booking last minute after another sitter fell through. She was very knowledgeable on rabbit and cat care. She asked lots of questions about my pets during our meet and greet to better understand their behavior's and care. My cat was also all over her the entire visit rubbing on her. She took some amazing glamor shots of my pets while we were away. Three pets is a lot of work for a 30 minute visit and she did a great job. I will definitely book with her again!”


“Blanca was so sweet and caring for our little doggo! He is a suspicious character, and Blanca was very and attentive to make him comfortable and have him eat and do his business. Five Stars!”


“We set up this walk/ introduction for our dogs with Andrea. She was great! She listened carefully to our instructions and wrote everything down. She had no issues asking for clarification and pertinent questions relating to their care. We felt comfortable with her watching our dogs for our trip and we will be hiring her again.”


“We couldn’t be more grateful for Kara! She was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and attentive while caring for our pets. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond—taking time to understand their routines and personalities and making sure they felt safe and loved while we were away. Her check-ins were thorough, detailed, and reassuring, always accompanied by sweet photos and updates that gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and we came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. Kara is truly a gem—we feel so lucky to have found her!”


About: I have experience caring for a variety of different household pets - currently in my care is a 5 year old ball python. I have previously cared for multiple dogs, including bully breeds. I also have experience with senior dogs, having recently rescued and rehabilitated a 130lb senior great dane/pit bull mix for the final few years of his life, as well as caring for past family dogs well into their later years. I grew up in a "more animals than people" household, so I've always been very accustomed to tending to the needs of various types of animals such as dogs, cats, rodents, and reptiles, and I understand how stressful it can be to leave them home while you're away. One thing you can guarantee I'll say just about every time I leave the house is "I wish I could text my dog." That's why I'm committed to regular communication about your pet and providing you with adorable update photos. I would be honored to be entrusted with the care of your furry (or not-so-furry) friend! I'm currently a part-time student and not working aside from pet sitting, so I have lots of time to hang out with your pet. I am unavailable for full time long-stays outside of my home, but message me and I would love to work with your needs to the best of my ability! My usual visits include a walk and/or playtime - to relieve any boredom, get their energy out, and provide exercise - a feeding if necessary, and I refresh their water at each visit. I always bring treats, and will ask about potential dietary restrictions in advance. I also like to dedicate a minimum of 20 minutes to sitting with your pet and giving them my full attention to keep them company, providing pets, brushing, or other affection. That said, I love doing my best to provide comfort to the less cuddly pets I care for as well. Some pets respond to their humans being away by seeking affection and some need their space - I will always listen to and follow your pet’s individual needs!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who works from home, which means I have the flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve throughout the day. Whether your dog needs long walks to burn off energy or your senior cat just wants some quiet company while they nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in their own home. I know that every pet is different, with their own unique quirks, needs, and personalities—and I take the time to get to know each one. I’ve cared for everything from zoomy puppies to wise old kitties, and I’m comfortable with medication, special diets, and pets who need a little extra patience or encouragement. I also have a soft spot for quirky behaviors—if your dog spins in circles before dinner or your cat insists on drinking from the faucet, I’m here for it. What sets me apart? I treat every pet like family, with personalized care, lots of love, and a healthy dose of silly voices to keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching. I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m happy to stop by for visits, walks, or playtime—and if needed, I can even work from your home to keep your pets company. I do have some after-work activities, but I’m great at planning around them to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I’m also available for overnights and weekends, so whether you’re heading out for a quick trip or a longer getaway, I’ve got you covered. Your pet’s comfort and care are my top priorities, and I’ll make sure they get all the love, attention, and belly rubs (if they’re into that) while you’re away. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things consistent and comfortable while you're away. I never do off-leash walks unless we're in a securely fenced area, and I always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates for a secure fit and peace of mind. When entering and exiting your home, I’m extra mindful of potential escape artists—I never leave doors open and will follow any guidelines you have in place to keep curious pets safely indoors. I’m also used to living with food-motivated sneaks, so it’s second nature for me to stash food safely away (microwave, high counter, pet-proof drawer—you name it!) even if I’m stepping away for a second. It helps keep your pet safe—and ensures I actually get to eat my snack. I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s boundaries, whether that means sticking to a strict feeding schedule, keeping them off the couch, or crating when needed. I’ll send periodic updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and cared for. I also take the responsibility of being in your home seriously—any key, code, or access method you provide will be kept secure, and I’ll make sure everything is locked up safely when I leave.

It’s hard having five cats (two fosters) and keeping the house clean, but Ashli cleaned up the floors and kept the car areas nice and clean for us as well. We can’t thank you enough!”
