I cannot say enough good things about Krystal or adequately express how grateful I am for her. She is a professional but she also truly loves our fur babies and cares for them. I’m not sure I would travel if I could not book her to care for our cats while we’re gone!

About: Hello! My name is Geneviève(“G”)- cat and dog mom to Pita, Vinny, and Lucy! I've been in Los Angeles for a decade working as a musician and exploring. I recently moved to AL! I love hiking, working out, crocheting, and hanging with family. I have a special way with shy temperaments and have experience with all sorts of dogs, from teacup Poms, to Huskies and Great Danes. I look forward to hanging out with your fur babies! ¨̮ I work evenings wed-Sunday so mornings afternoons work well for me or if it's house sitting I will be there most the day and gone for 6-7 hrs I want to become best friends with every animal I meet. I want your pet to feel comfortable while you're not there with them, and also want you to know they will get the best care and you can enjoy your trip away without worrying. Every animal I meet is different and has different needs (affection/play/space) I make sure to give each one I spend time with what they need.

About: I can't remember a time in my life I did not have my own pets. I have taken care of my own pets all of my life and am a lifelong animal caregiver. I have experience as a foster mom for an animal rescue as well and I enjoyed taking care of so many different babies and helping them find their forever homes. I have always had both cat and dog companions and have advocated and helped friends and family with their pets as well. I currently have a senior dog, a senior cat, who have both been with me for over 13 years, three cats who are two years old and a leopard gecko! I would love to meet you and help with your pet care needs! I'm currently available part-time, on Monday- Friday from 9:00 am- 1:30 pm. I would be happy to work around your schedule as much as possible! I have a fenced in yard and pets of my own. I understand each pet has their own personality and needs tailored to them. I will be an active listener and always treat and care for your pets according to your wishes!

She was very sweet and communicative. I love the detail in which she wrote her notes. My dog is very precious to me and it means a lot to have someone taken care of her who truly cared about her.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for years and have always had them in my home growing up. Unfortunately, in a small apartment, I can’t have my own right now but would love to walk and care for all the pups! I am a full time student with a relatively flexible schedule for walking/ check ins with pups during the week and weekends! I am generally more free in the afternoons, but can do some mornings! I promise to take care of the pets just like they are my own! I know how important and a part of the family our pets are and will care for them as such.

I been pet sitting for years for free for friends and family and I decided to apply to Rover to get paid for something I enjoy doing. I only work 3 days a week and every 3rd weekend. I plan on doing my pet sitting duties on my days off and maybe on some days I work, depending on the situation. I guarantee your pet would be safe /properly taken care of. We have a Pomeranian name Chaise Alonzo March. That we love dearly. He is 7 years old. I'm more than willing to meet with you about your pet and their needs. I would welcome your babies with arms wide open.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

About: I would love to walk/ hike with your pet, care for it at your home, or drop in to let them out. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. My dog passed away earlier this year and I won't be ready for anther dog anytime soon, but I would love to share love with your animals. I work seasonally and am currently off for my winter season. I would love to spend time with your animals either at your home or on walks/hikes! I can not watch pets in my own home but in my client's home I make sure to follow their rules and ask the important questions up front. I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.

About: I have many years of experience taking care of various types of animals. However, dogs are my favorite! I am currently a fourth year veterinary (DVM) student at WesternU. I have experience administering medications, subcutaneous fluids, and giving lots of love to pets in my care. I have open availability on both weekdays and weekends for drop-ins/walks, stay-ins and sometimes boarding. I am out of school this summer and happy to take care of your fur babies I have a 2 year old Golden retriever who is the sweetest girl ever and will keep your baby company.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 7 years for some of my family, friends, and neighbors. I have tons of experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m a very active college student and athlete, so I love the opportunity to take long walks, playing fetch, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they deserve. I’m currently a college student on summer break a more than flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I’m more than willing able to do walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. Moreover, I’m committed to being very communicative and reliable, your pet is a part of your family, and deserves to be treated that way. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your needs and will always make sure your pet receives plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are, of course, my top priorities. I will follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household routines to the letter, treating the pets as if they were my own. I strive to always maintain a clean and safe environment especially during walks and outdoor activities. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I never rush the time to build that trust crucial to a healthy relationship.

Raegan was so great with my puppy, Mayer while he was recovering from his neutering surgery! She sent me updates and pictures and made me comfortable when I was nervous to leave him home for the first time while I was at work. She welcomed a long list of care instructions from me, a crazy dog mom. I trust her with my pup and will be using her in the future!

Amy is absolutely amazing, especially if you want peace of mind with your fur babies. She made our boy (male cat) feel comfortable and happy. She even got him to finish his wet food which he rarely does. We loved the pictures she sent us. We cannot wait to book her again!
