“We booked Abigail and Ian last minute to let Pancho out, and they were amazing! They responded quickly, were super friendly, and made us feel completely comfortable trusting them to come into our home. We will definitely be booking again!”


“Jolie has been super helpful. She loves animals and cares about them. She also respects and meets pet owners' needs. I couldn’t be happier with booking her. She is taking care of my babies, and I will definitely work with her again in the future.”


“Jennifer was fantastic! She accepted a last minute booking when we were going to be out of town longer than expected. We really appreciated her on time arrival, and she stayed for the entire 30 minute drop in that we booked. Not only did she let our boy out to potty and administer the necessary meds as we asked, she made sure his food bowl was full and refreshed his water (tasks that we didn't even think to ask about, but she took care of for us anyway, SO THOUGHTFUL!!!) Thank you for taking wonderful care Winston!”


“Steve has amazing personality and my cat warmed up to him automatically. I feel safe leaving my meowies with him and looking forward to how he’ll develop his bonding with the rest of when I am gone.”


“We hired Samantha to care for our kitties and she nailed it! We have a couple "problem furbabies" that didn't scare her away and she was able to care for them like we do, which put my mind at ease! We can't wait to have her care for the crew again!”


“Maggie was awesome and went above and beyond helping my geriatric Maine coon get her thyroid medication while I was away. She was super communicative, friendly, and patient even when Nalia (my cat) had her usual stranger danger up front. I could tell Nalia was healthy and happy when I returned home, and she really seemed to warm up to Maggie. Definitely will be asking for Maggie’s help again in the future.”


About: Ask me about my foster dogs!! **meet & greet required for new clients** I’m a trained animal handler and current canine companion at DCHS, with certifications in Fear Free and LIMA. I love building trust with pets - especially helping shy dogs come out of their shell. I have experience with a wide range of temperaments and personalities. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles, and bring calm, respectful handling to every visit. My goal is to build a positive, lasting relationship with your pet. Overnight pet sitting with established clients only at this time. Please schedule a meet & greet 10 days in advance to be considered for overnight stays in your home. I am a freelance graphic designer and have a flexible schedule as I mostly work from home. I enjoy hiking & volunteering in my free time. I am happy to provide care for your animal where they are most comfortable, in their own home. Unless absolutely needed I will never enter private areas of a home. (Ex: bedrooms) and will care for your pets in common shared spaces (living room)

“Melinda is the BEST pet caretaker I’ve ever had on Rover! She shows up perfectly on time, super communicator and went above and beyond her visits. All the pictures and video were so great; my Cora loved her!”


“I couldn’t have asked for better care for my kitties. I’m a little apprehensive about leaving my cats for long periods of time, but Elise sent great pictures and informative updates every time she came to check on the cats, so it was incredibly relieving to be regularly reminded that they were in good hands. She really paid attention to their weird preferences and habits, and despite how timid and anxious they can be, they felt comfortable around Elise right away. They had a great time hanging out with their new friend, and I know that they’ll love hanging out with her again next time I need to take a trip!”


“Safeeyah was incredible with my kitties. She was extremely responsive, sent lots of photos, and updated me on how each visit went. It was so calming to know my cats were in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking if I’m out of town, and I highly recommend her!”


About: I have three trained dogs of all sizes and ages (a 8yr old cocker, a 14 yr old lab, and a 7 month old st. bernard). My furry babies are friendly with children and other dogs. We frequently explore the McFarland dog park so let me know if you feel comfortable with bringing your pup along! Otherwise I have a good sized, fenced in backyard for the animals to stretch, run and play. I am a special education teacher for elementary aged students. Over summer months I focus my time and energy on my kiddos and dogs. We love the outdoors! I will have plenty of flexibility and time to work around your pups' toileting and exercise schedule. Willing and able to follow your individualized needs for your fur baby. I am very present (especially during summer months when I am not teaching) so can make sure your pup is getting all the love and attention they deserve.

“Fanny is a gem!!! My kitty, Leo, absolutely loves her and it’s amazing to be able to travel and know he’s in good hands—and to get adorable updates along the way. :) Thank you again, Fanny!”


“Emma was a phenomenal cat sitter! She was so attentive to Sugar’s needs and filled her time with play and love. There was no doubt in my mind that Sugar was in good hands! I will definitely be asking her to cat sit again!”


About: I grew up caring for pets of all kinds, and for the past six years have cared for a behaviorally complex (but wonderful!) rescue pup. Our journey has taught me a ton about training, and about patience. As a result, I am very understanding of dogs and other animals that deal with reactivity — we are a shame-free household! I work full time, but my schedule is flexible on my work-from-home days and on weekends, which gives me plenty of time to care for and love on your pets. As a detail-oriented, attentive person, I will be sure to follow any instructions you have for your pet’s care. Otherwise, I will use my best judgment and careful attention to the safety and health of your pet to make all other decisions while they’re in my care.

“Joanna did a great job of watching our two boys (kitties) while we were gone for 9 days. She was VERY communicative and gave nice reports after each visit with photos of the boys. She brushed and combed them, played with them and spent extra time with them almost everyday. We highly recommend her and thank her for taking such wonderful care of our boys.”

From energetic puppies who need daily adventures to shy cats who crave quiet companionship, I’m here to keep your pets safe, happy, and well loved while you’re away. Do you own a pet that isn't a cat or dog? No problem! I have owned dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, frogs, geckos and fish! I am currently attending college to become a registered nurse.

Highland Manor pet parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot say enough about how wonderful Sophie was! She is an excellent communicator—always replied quickly and clearly to messages, and when in person, she not only listened attentively to all the things I was sharing but also consolidated it into a plan for her time with Action Jackson, which she formulated and articulated before she left our meet-&-greet. During the days of drop-in sitting with my kitty, she was amazing with some last minute flexibility, which helped me a ton. She sent several pics for each drop-in and wrote about how things went. You could see she executed her plan and provided active play for my kitty. She even helped with logistics of dropping off / picking up my keys. Could not have been more grateful for her help! Truly recommend!!

This was our first time using Rover and having Elise care for our 10 year old cat. Elise is awesome - she's so easy to communicate with, has a great personality, is responsible, shows up for the visits, sends an email update with photos, and did an excellent job caring for our cat. Elise checks all the boxes and this is a first for us! I highly recommend Elise to care for your pet(s)! We've already rebooked with her!

I was so glad I had Maddie watching my cats while I was gone. She kept me updated with photos and any other little info that she thought would be helpful for me to know while I was gone. It put me at ease to know my cats had her checking on them consistently and showing them love.

Calvin went above and beyond to make sure that my cat was happy and well cared for while I was out of town. He was very communicative, sending regular updates and photos. He was always happy to help and incredibly flexible. I would highly recommend Calvin to look after your pets.
