“Rob was amazing, very punctual and very good with my cats. He did great with administering a pill to my kitty, twice a day. Highly recommend, and would want him to take care of my fur babies if I had to be out of town again.”

“Aimee was great with my dogs! She showed up right on time, handled them confidently, and they warmed right up to her (treats definitely helped). This was just a prep visit for a longer stay, and I feel really good knowing they’ll be in her hands.”

“Sally is always quick to respond, professional, and treats my pup like her own. It’s a great feeling to find someone you can trust with your pet. I would 100 percent recommend to anyone looking for pet services.”

About: I’m an experienced pet lover with a deep passion for dogs! I’ve cared for four pups of different sizes and breeds, and I can’t wait to help yours feel loved and happy. Whether it's walking, playing, or feeding, I’m here to give your dog the best care. I love to run so Im also available to take your dog for a run. I’m available most evenings from 5 pm onwards due to my full-time job. I’m flexible and happy to work around your needs for a stress-free experience. When taking care of your pet at home, I ensure they’re safe, comfortable, and engaged. I follow your instructions closely, offering playtime, feeding, and attention.
About: I am always happy to help out with my friends or neighborhood animals. I love all the cuddles and licks when I visit. I even help the lost ones that find their way to our door. I am self-employed and throughout the week go to meetings that can last 90 minutes. I am usually not gone any longer than a total of 6 hours. I am able to set my own schedule, so I can be flexible when housesitting. If I am boarding there is always an adult home to care for a pet. I like to walk, exercise, and play with pets. I go to local dog parks at least 2x/week with my own dogs. I also enjoy the snuggles pets are willing to give. I base my care off of what an owner likes and does, as well as what the pet is open to.
“Jennifer took great care with my dog while I was away. She not only provided me with a report but with cute photos of my pet. The reports were thorough and concise.”

“Lindsay is a delight! Very responsible and a great communicator. And best of all she’s got a warm heart, loves animals and took great care of our older kitty. We will most definitely ask her to help us in the future”


“This was my first time using rover and Aichon was fantastic! Always on time and took great care of my cat while I was gone so I didn’t have any worries while on my trip. Highly recommend!”

“Abigail was wonderful with my boys, and very communicative each time she dropped in to care for them. It was a holiday week so I was very happy to have gotten her booked.”

“Brian took care our cat for about nine days while we were out of town. He was responsible, kept us updated with cute photos, left our home clean, and overall did a great job looking after her.”

“Jackson was great! He showed up on time each day for a week, which was truly appreciated as I booked last minute. He updated me with a few pics and additional detail beyond the basic report card. For example, he checked in via message on day 1 to confirm my dog's mood and poop quality were as expected. My little buddy has some separation anxiety that sometimes causes runny stools and submissive posture. By day 2 my dog was already adjusted and he looked comfortable in the rest of the photos that Jackson sent throughout the week. Recommend 💯!”

“Sarah was so sweet! She took great care of Woody! She provided pictures and gave us an update of what happened during their visit. This was our first experience using this service and Sarah did a fantastic job!! Thank you so much!!”

“Joanna did a great job checking in on my kitty Peaches. She reliably showed up as promised, communicated well, shared pictures and my cat loved her. She was good at telling with Peaches was in the mood to play or in the mood to cuddle and gave her all the love she craved. I will definitely have Joanna look in on Peaches again in the future. Highly recommend.”

“Eli did an awesome job checking in on our cats over the holiday weekend! Eli went above and beyond and brought in some packages for us and tidied up their food bowls!”
“Brianna was great with our dogs. Great communication while we were gone and followed through with all our requests. We will definitely call on Brianna for future dog walks/check ins. Chris and Toni”


“I really have liked Jacob and Sarah! They've been responsive and flexible, and I feel like my dogs are in good hands. And I absolutely love the pictures and updates they send!”

Jayda was great with my timid cat while we were gone! It was the first time she has been fully alone since my other cat passed away and Jayda spent lots of time playing and petting on her to keep her company. She was also very consistent and sent lots of photos to let us know how Harper was doing.

Although had to leave my cat for three weeks to travel abroad, I felt better because Lillian would be taking care of her. My cat is extremeley picky and yet she warms to Lillian and her care. Thank you! I will definitely check to see if you're available again.

Rob did an excellent job taking care of our cat, who can be difficult and standoffish. He was responsive to her needs and followed our directions well, even suggesting slight adjustments to facilitate a better experience for all. We recommend him wholeheartedly!

We had such an amazing experience with Gillian as always! She truly went above and beyond in every way. Not only was she incredibly communicative , kind, and attentive, but she also graciously helped us out with an extra day last minute, which took so much stress off our shoulders while traveling. We will absolutely book her again and recommend her to everyone we know. Our little kitten.

Joanna did a great job checking in on my kitty Peaches. She reliably showed up as promised, communicated well, shared pictures and my cat loved her. She was good at telling with Peaches was in the mood to play or in the mood to cuddle and gave her all the love she craved. I will definitely have Joanna look in on Peaches again in the future. Highly recommend.

Carley was great! She was always on time (except for when she had a family emergency and she told me about it and my cats got fed a couple hours late so no big deal). I gave her quite a lot of specific instructions and she followed them well! She also kept me informed of what was going on with my cats and sent lots of pictures. She was also very responsive. Would definitely hire her again!

Annika made my first Rover experience so pleasant. She took so many photos and kept me updated with sweet notes on how my cat was doing. Annika fed my cat her oral medication with no issues. I was able to really relax during my vacation knowing Penny was in good hands. She went above and beyond to keep things neat and tidy. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would love to rebook in the future. Thank you!!!
