“Shin was so kind and very quick to respond! She had all good things to say about our baby and followed our instructions to a T. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“I have had Stevie watch my cat Fumble a number of times now. She is very reliable and excellent with her communication. If her schedule changes, she is sure to let me know. I always enjoy the pictures that come with each visit.”

About: I've always been a pet lover and once I became a nanny I had the opportunity to not only care for the children but the pets as well. I then started pet/house sitting. I have experience in administering medicine. I walk, bath, love and play with the pets I care for. I am a single mother and my daughter is with me all the time. We would love to take care of your fur babies who are good around children. . I'm available for morning walks/feedings. I'm also available all weekend. I work part-time as a nanny in the early afternoon till 6 but I'm free to do check ins. At the moment I am unable to provide care in my home. This is temporary and I'll offer those services again mid June, thank you.
“Chelsea was a consistent communicator and provided timely, detailed, and adorable photo updates for us during our trip. Followed instructions and let us know everything she did also. So glad we found her. Our cat warmed up to her right away. Thanks again!”

“Jessica did an amazing job and was super attentive to my boys. Even my one one super skittish cat felt comfortable around her! I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Mackenzie was amazing and brought us peace of mind while travelling. She was on point with taking care of our illusive cat. She gave us a couple pics and a wonderful update on how she's doing. Thank you so much for being available for us and we're super hopeful future trips align with your availability!”

“This was the first vacation where I felt comfortable leaving my pets! We really appreciate how much attention Elizabeth put into caring for our dog. She left great feedback about our her condition throughout the day and communicated any concerns she had immediately. My dog LOVES Elizabeth too! Halfway through our trip we began planning other ways Elizabeth could care for our dog in the future!”

“Hannah is amazing! She is very quick to communicate, has always shown up when she said she would, and takes great care and concern of my sweet pup. Absolutely trust her and she is very proactive about scheduling and communicating any potential schedule conflicts. I am very blessed to have her as someone to check in on my fur baby. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages — from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I love being outdoors and staying active, so walks and playtime are always a big part of my day. I’m also comfortable helping dogs who need a little extra leash training and patience. I have a large backyard and one friendly dog of my own, so if your dog enjoys some social time, they’ll fit right in! My flexible schedule makes it easy for me to do drop-in visits and walks whenever you need. I care for pets by giving them the love and attention they deserve. I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur baby home all day, wondering if they’re getting enough care. I’m here to give them the attention they need — and give you peace of mind.
“Lauren was great for drop ins with my pup! Great communication, on time, and sent lots of pics! She is very kind and easy to get along with, and my pup loved her too. Don’t hesitate to book her!”

“Elizabeth is a real life saver. We had gone out of town and left our pets with a sitter, but the sitter wasn’t able to give our elder cat our heart medicine. We reached out to Elizabeth and she was able to go and give the medicine without any issues and spent some time with our pets to make sure they weren’t lonely while our sitter was in school. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future when we go out of town!”

“Thank you! This couldn't have gone better. We have been on such a long journey to get him to where he can be alone for extended periods of time and he finally did it! Thank you for all your help for all this time!”

“Lauren was an incredible pet sitter! Super friendly, reliable, and clearly loves animals. She was attentive and communicated during each visit. I’ll definitely be booking again—highly recommend!”


“LeNai has taken care of my cat Bella multiple times, and done a great job each time. She is professional, communicative, and my cat loves her a lot. I could not recommend LeNai highly enough.”

About: Not only I deal with tens of students 2/3 of the year, I would like to fill up that 1/3 with my love for animals. Whenever I’m not at the school, I take care of my own two dogs. My oldest is over 15 yrs and has been with me since I was 11. I do sub nowadays, so I am more flexible with watching pets during a school night, so I can leave pets only up to 5 hours. All I ask is that you as an owner, tell me about the typical day with your dogs. With this information, I will reenact this as much as I can so your pets will feel safe and it’s not like you were gone.
“Chyna came through for my family and I at the last minute so that we could travel the day of Thanksgiving. She provided the attention and care that my dogs needed and are accustomed to. From the photos, both of my dogs were clearly happy with Chyna.”

About: I’ve taken care of a dog ever since I’ve got my first one when I was eight, and now that I’m older and living on my own I have my own dog who is almost 3, who still acts just like a puppy. Since joining Rover, I have taken care of a variety of different dogs of all breeds, and sizes with all kinds of different needs. I currently have a full time job( shifts are 6-8 hours long) other than Rover so I just need a booking request a week in advance! Im more available at night and can provide your baby with as much love and attention as they want!! No matter what neighborhood you may live in, I promise your pets will always be safe with me, I am very observant and watchful of pets and I always do my best to make sure that they are very well taken care of as if they are my own.
“Salina helped me with my three cats while I recovered from surgery. She was very flexible with my needs and has a very calming and assuring presence. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter and will definitely hire her again.”
