“Courtney is the best sitter I have ever encountered on and off app She is amazingly helpful Kind and compassionate when things come up She Goes above and beyond every single time There’s no questions that she not only cares for animals but also their human companions and for that I am so grateful to her She made us feel secure leaving our fur babies with her and also gave us peace of mind knowing we will come home after a long trip to our house in one piece As long as she’s on here and I need her a sitter I won’t be using anyone else”

“Very responsive, easy to communicate with, responsible, timely and friendly. He has a nice steady energy which is really responsive to a variety of dog personalities. Definitely makes things easier for me and my dogs! Would recommend and use again!”

About: I worked at a boarding business for about a year and a half for dogs and cats. I worked with all different sizes and breeds, and ages of dogs and cats. My job tittle including playing and cuddling with the animals, feeding the animals, cleaning where they stayed, and giving medicine to the animals that required it. I have a little more than basic knowledge of dogs and cats health and always try to stay up to date with that. I dog sit and cat sit for friends and families regularly aswell. I have always grown up around animals and if you were to ask anyone who knows me they will say I have always wanted to work with animals since I knew what a job was. I am currently a college student and am majoring in wildlife conservation, while that's not specifically a major for cats and animals I still have and will learn a lot about those species as well!! I currently don't have a job so my schedule is really open. I work out everyday usually in the mornings to early afternoons. But I have a very flexible schedule! I have a fenced backyard just under 2acres of land. So it is very spacious for bigger dogs to run around in! I am able to walk dogs for however long.
“Elizabeth was amazing! She was responsive to my request, communicative about her visit, and our pup had a great time. I will not hesitate to book her again, thanks Elizabeth!”

“Lora Renee took great care of our cat! He was diagnosed with Lymphoma 2 months ago and we were hesitant to leave him, but Lora Renee immediately put us at ease. We felt very comfortable having her in our home.”


“I had such a great experience with Shannon as my sitter. She was very attentive with my cat Momo and made sure she got lots of love and playtime. Shannon sent updates and photos every visit, which really put me at ease while I was away. Momo can be shy but warmed up to her right away, that says a lot! I’ll absolutely book her again.”

“Lindsay took great care of our 2 cats. They require pills twice a day and one of them is a finicky eater and they are love to play but are hard to get playing. She established trust with them, they seemed comfortable with her and were eating well. Her communication with us was great. Through her check in descriptions and great pictures we had a good idea of how the cats were doing so we weren’t worried if they were comfortable or happy.”

About: I’ve loved and been obsessed with animals of all different kinds for as long as I can remember. I grew up around lots of dogs and have always felt so at home with them. I also have experience with cats, goats, horses, reptiles, amphibians, you name it! I grew up going to camps with farm animals and had friends with llamas and horses and I always enjoyed helping them. As a kid I would take care of neighbors or my friends dogs or cats when they needed it. I have a very deep love for animals and being able to turn that passion into a job has been really special for me. I run my own business from home so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m happy to visit your pets whenever is best for you. I love taking pictures and will gladly send you video and picture updates! I love tending to each pets needs and finding what works best for them. Whether that’s playing and getting them really tired or providing them company, I want your pets to be as happy and comfortable as possible. I will treat your pet as if it were my own and hopefully I can provide you with some peace of mind while you’re away 😊 I’m available for early mornings, mid day, or evening visits. Weekdays and weekends. I have a very active life style and enjoy being outside. My love of animals and being outdoors go hand in hand and it works perfectly for me. I really love getting down and dirty and keeping your pet(s) happy and healthy I’m very adaptable to fit what works best for each pet parent. I can feed and replace water bowls, play, run around in the backyard with them, scoop poop, give medication, give love and pets, or simply just company. I can also work on training and go on walks
“Mindy is great! They’ve taken care of our pups multiple times and we’ll keep booking so long as they’re available. Great and timely communication, wonderful care, cute pics of our pups.”

I am an energetic mom with a flexible schedule and look forward to meeting your dog! Please feel free to contact me to discuss my services. I am home full time. I have a flexible schedule. I can provide a variety of services based on need. Feeding, walking, checking in, etc. My elderly dog passed a couple months ago. I do not currently have a pet. I love meeting and caring for animals.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since my family adopted our first family dog, Estella, in 2018. Since then, I've accumulated hundreds of hours of walking time, helped train Estella and our current family dog, Jade, learned to listen to their needs (when they need pets, outside time, play time, etc.), and, of course, gained experience cleaning up dozens of messes. Over the years I have also been relied on to cat-sit and dog-sit for two families when they were out of town. I am confident in my ability to give your pets what they need while you're away and can't wait to meet them! I just graduated from college and am still working on securing a job, which means I have lots of time to give your pets the attention they need! Until further notice, my availability for pet care is wide open. My goal for caring for your pets is, first and foremost, following the schedule and expectations that you've already set for them. It's super important to me that all the hard work you've put in with training, rule-setting, and care is continued even when you aren't there. After that, it's also important that I stay attentive to what your pets need. I make sure I'm paying attention to indications that they want to be let outside, want to be pet, or want to play.
“Gianna was awesome taking care of our two dogs while we were away. She is reliable, caring and thorough. I left specific care instructions and she followed them perfectly. I will definately be booking with her in the future. Thanks!”

“Yu was amazing I would definitely recommend and will be using him again! He was very responsive and attentive to our pups while we were out of town! He went above and beyond of what we asked of him every time he dropped in to check on our dogs I would 100% recommend Yu to anyone who needs a sitter!”

“Trinity did an excellent job taking care of our boy Sokka. He always looked so happy in her company in the photos, and we came home to a cat that wasn't entirely mad at us for being away as a result. Trinity also did a great job with his feeding and medicine schedule, and was great at keeping us informed and communicating. Would definitely book with Trinity again!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life. Caring for dogs & cats as well as farm animals has always been a natural part of life for me. It's my honor to help care for your animals! I am currently working part time, and I transport my kids to/from school, but I have some big open windows of time to spend my energy & attention on your babies! Happy to visit, feed, play with pets in their own home, let dogs out into your fenced yard for potty or take them for walks! I will also wipe dog's feet before they run around the house, and/or wipe up the floor. I can keep pets separate if needed, giving them individual time/attention.
About: Hi there my name is Kelsey and I am have centered my life around the health and well being of our furry friends. I’ve spent the last 6 years working in pet insurance and have gained a lot of knowledge about how to create healthy and safe environments for our animals. My own dog turns 14 this year and people still ask me if she is a puppy because of how active and happy she is around others. I always treat every animal as if they are my own and would be honored to do so for your pet too. I’m currently working from home on my own business in the field of digital marketing and have missed being around pets in the office. My availability is based on my own schedule and can be very flexible. I have a fenced yard on over an acre of land and lots of non-harmful plants that my dogs loves to sniff around. When the dogs are outside I will be right there with them enjoying the afternoon.
Hobart pet parents share their Rover experiences
This is our second time using Shannon for our cat Momo and she's the best. Tons of photos, great communication, and when a snow storm caused some damage at our house she let us know and even offered to help. Total peace of mind knowing Momo is in good hands. We will keep using Shannon!
