“Angela is very responsive to messaging and prompt. She gets along great with all of my dogs and is flexible with her schedule. I will continue to use her for all of my sitter needs.”
“My dog Sui was well cared for and happy to see Robert when he returned my apartment key promptly as scheduled. Thank you Robert and Holly for caring for Sui last minute when I was invited out of town for New Year’s Eve. I would rebook/recommend them for people with larger dogs as they were very comfortable handling my hyper German Shepherd mix dog Sui (90 lbs on a leash).”

About: I have worked in zoos, wildlife rehabs, and shelters for over 5 years. I am well-versed in operant conditioning training and provided medication to many species including dogs, cats, and birds. My schedule is very flexible, so I can drop by to care for your pet in your home anytime that fits your schedule! I am not available for boarding pets at my home at this time. I am unavailable for long term stays, e.g. longer than one week I always take into account the owner's preferences for their pet. I will adapt to the way you want your pet to be cared for. With my background in the zoo field, working inside specific parameters is how animals get the best care in the way they are used to.
“Michael was wonderful with my cat while I was traveling. Very kind, communicative and professional. He even left her an extra little bag of treats. Highly recommend.”

“Tabatha is the best. She’s a very caring, thoughtful caregiver. Super reliable and responsive with plenty of communication and photos. She even kept an eye on the plants. Will definitely be rebooking in the future if she’s available. Thank you so much Tabatha!”
About: I have cared for my own pets, friends pets, and family members pets for decades, including multiple senior pets and those with specific medical needs. I work from home and have my own pets who are spoiled with constant company and attention to needs. I walk my own dogs in the morning throughout the summer to avoid the hottest part of the day. It is unlikely I am ever out of the house for more than 90 minutes, ensuring that neither your nor my own dogs are left unattended for long enough to become anxious. My backyard is fully shaded, fenced, and has a small pond. Even on the hottest days my backyard is suitable for lounging despite the high desert heat.
“Madelynne was very communicative and reliable in dropping in on our two very active dogs for a long weekend. She was professional and polite. She even helped sort out an issue with our auto cat feeder while we were away. We would definitely book her again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have spent years caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I also have some light training experience. I’m a night owl but can be up early too, so I’m happy to take on late night or early morning pet care as needed. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of care needs. I’m calm, confident, and attentive with animals, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I'm a mature, patient, and responsible woman with an enthusiastic love for animals. I would be honored if you you'd allow me to put my years of responsibility and experience to use with your fur family! I have a very flexible schedule and a huge heart. Pets have given me so much for so little in exchange. I have all the time and energy for the doggos that need it! I have a two-story townhouse with a fenced-in yard. We have a dog run in our gated community and several parks close by for sniffing exploration.
“Savannah did a wonderful job watching my cats this past weekend. She was willing to come to the house for a meet and greet the weekend prior and checked in with a Rover card and sweet photos of the cats during her drop-in. Would definitely recommend!”
“After we fired our first sitter (at the beginning of our trip) for the lack of care she gave to our 2 dogs, we messaged multiple sitters hoping to find someone quickly who could provide better care for our girls. Samantha messaged me back first, and she accommodated us with our last minute request with grace. She was EXCEPTIONALLY better than our last sitter - on time, communicative, and good with our girls. We could tell from the photos that our dogs really liked her and her daughter, and it put me at ease so we could finish the last of our trip de stressed, knowing that our girls were getting good care. We will absolutely be reaching out to Samantha again for future visits!!!”

About: I've worked with dogs for 5 years in a vet setting. I understand the importance of trusting someone to take care of our fur babies. Early morning walks with my chug, to work at the vet, ending the day with cuddles, zoomines and providing my dog with medications as needed. My chug is a complicated and exciting little guy. He requires special attention with medication and diet. I ensure he has everything he needs to live his best life. Working full time in a vet setting helps me provide anything he might need. We enjoy taking different training classes, long walks and cuddles.

Kimberly L.
“Hello! I have two four-legged girls that I love very much. I am a picky dog mom who always wants the best for them, as you do for yours. I occasionally have to go out of town and want to be sure they are well cared for. I lost my last caregiver, so I did lots of research in my community and had good reports on Kimberly. She certainly lived up to her recommendations, and perhaps even exceeded them. She understands dogs, and after meeting my pitties, she was happy to care for them. We arranged for check-in calls, she took them for walks and played with them. I had a special request for certain rubs and massages, and it was no problem. When I picked up my girls, they were happy, clean, and energetic. I think you can be confident in Kimberly's care for your fur babies.”

Highlands North pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover and Blake made me feel comfortable right away. Blake was very professional and you could tell that they loved animals and truly cared about their well being. I received daily updates and pictures of my cuties as well as overall reassurance that all was going well while I was gone. Thanks Blake! I’ll definitely rebook in the future!
I contacted Olivia only a few days before I was in need of someone to take care of my beloved cat, Zayda. She responded right away, came to do a meet-and-greet that same evening, and right away I knew that I could trust her with my baby. After booking her initially for drop-in visits, I asked her if she'd be willing to adjust the booking to staying overnight instead because I worried about my cat being lonely and scared of fireworks. Olivia didn't hesitate a second - she understood my needs and completely accommodated the change on short notice. She sent photos twice a day and communicated well. I am very grateful to have found her.
I can’t say enough about the wonderful care Alexa took with my senior kitty. She was kind, responsible, communicative and definitely made my vacation worry free. It’s so wonderful to know you can go away and count on someone to be there for your furry family member.
This was the first time I used this site and I had Brigid come over and watch my two little girls for a couple of days. everything seems perfect The girls acted kind of weird when I came back, I'm thinking that they were just mad at me for deserting them I think they thought that they were up for adoption because some lady was coming to take care of them haha! I will definitely use them again. Thank you Brigid.
