Ann was wonderful! We felt 100% comfortable knowing our Tillie (our cat) was in good hands while we were away. Ann was consistently on time, stayed for quite a while, and provided great daily updates. We’d love to have Ann over again.

Kelly was great watching our cat over a long weekend. She was quick to communicate with, sent updates, and kept my cat happy and fed. She even did a "pre-visit" to meet my pet before we left. Would recommend and will book again!

Cassie has been such a wonderful caretaker for our cats. She spends quality time with the cats and ensures everything is clean and in order. Cassie goes above and beyond, was very flexible, and was such a big help. The cats absolutely adored her and seemed to really enjoy her company.

Lindsey was a Godsend! She happily agreed to drop-in wellness checks on our two cats and a cockatiel over a six-day absence. At our meet & greet she readily befriended each of her charges, and displayed her love for animals. While we were away, Lindsey sent photos and videos of some very happy pets!

About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages and sizes with very specific care routines (lasting chronic conditions, elderly dogs, specific dietary restrictions). I’m currently seeking a position that would allow me to care for pets during my off weeks at Polar Park. I’m flexible and more than willing to coordinate my schedule to best meet your needs. Additionally, I’m available most mornings each week, inquiries only. I would love the opportunity to provide reliable and attentive care for your pets! I have several years of experience as a pet sitter and am also a dog owner myself. I typically care for well-trained, well-groomed dogs whose families are looking for a reliable and friendly sitter. Growing up, I had a dog with chronic seizures, which taught me the importance of maintaining consistent routines, administering medications on schedule, and carefully managing dietary restrictions. I understand how crucial attentive and dependable care can be. If needed, I am also happy to provide overnight stays to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own home.

Michelle went above and beyond during her drop-ins, not just making sure my fur babies were fed and spoiled for atrention, but also helping me out with situations in the apartment where I was not there to handle it on my own. Thank you so much!!

Erica was great! We have 3 medically complex cats and she didn't give up on getting their medical needs met. One of our cats is extremely shy and fearful, but Erica tried some of our tips and tricks to figure out what would work best. I even goofed and forgot to give her critical info, but she waited around until I got back to her. I am so grateful for her kindness, thoroughness, and care for my cats. Going away with medically complex cats is stressful, but Erica definitely gave me some peace-of-mind.

About: My family has owned dogs my entire life and I had lots of experience watching them when they were away. I'm now the owner of a sweet Min Pin named Cleo. I work part time and remotely so I should have a semi-flexible schedule. Weekends should usually be even more so! I'd be happy to work around your schedule, if possible. I'm avaliable to dogsit at your place and make sure your pup is well fed, walked, and let out for potty breaks. I am avaliable for check ins as well. I'm sure I could also accommodate any special instructions that were in the ballpark of normal pet care :)

Eko and Sarah did an excellent job cat sitting for us! Before the booking they came and met the cats, and we were immediately impressed with the very thoughtful questions and the thorough note taking. They seemed to really understand cats, and asked some insightful questions I hadn’t even thought of. One of our cats has a medical condition that requires regular medicine, and they took it very seriously, and even offered to check in on her again for free during the day to confirm she was ok. They even found a way to get our more picky cat to eat when they were there (treats on the food!) The regular updates and cat photos were great, and really gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation.

Alison was incredible! I knew from when she first met Nigiri that he would be in great hands. She was super timely, flexible with his feeding schedule, and always cuddled with him. I could easily tell from all the photos that he adored her right away. I hope there will be a time where Alison and Nigiri can hang out again soon!

About: Hi there, my name is Erin! I’ve taken care of many different types of dogs. Whether it be a mastiff or a frenchie. So, I have much experience when it comes to handling different types of breeds and/or mixes. I have own dogs/cats my whole life, so I have a good amount of experience with pet care. I’m currently working part-time. I work every Saturday until 4pm. I’m a full time college student as well, but I have time in my schedule after / between classes to provide weekly or daily pet care. I live on 8 acres of land. This allows me to take my dog out and walk her around. My dog is yard trained, so she does not need a leash to roam around. If needed, we do have leashes in case.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve been walking and caring for them for as long as I can remember. I have six years of dog walking experience and work confidently with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve trained two Irish Wolfhound puppies, so I’m comfortable with big breeds, strong pullers, and growing pups who need structure and patience. I also spent a year and a half working at a cat shelter, where I provided basic and medical care to kittens, senior cats, and disabled cats. That experience strengthened my ability to handle a wide range of temperaments and medical needs with calm, attentive care. I truly love working with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own I'm currently working part time and have plenty of time in my morning, afternoons, and night everyday of the week. I'm very flexible with timing! I have a car to bring dogs to dog parks with and can easily transport large dogs with my vehicle. I have driven around dogs for the past 2 years and have been trained with calming down nervous pups for car rides

As a fellow Rover sitter, this was the first time i was on the other side of Rover and it really helped me appreciate the amount of trust an owner has to go through to choose the right person to enter their home and care for their pet. I was anxious because my usual friend care for my cat couldnt help out. However, Jessica was amazing and took us on with a few days notice, she was so sweet and kind and our cat took to her well. Animals aren’t diplomatic and will feel great people and their good energies and based on the photos we received of our cat Siri, he loved and trusted Jessica! We already booked her for our next trip away and she will now be our go-to Siri sitter!

I couldnt have ask for a better visit! She suggested to do a meet and greet beforehand which I really appreciated. Afsah is kind, she was diligent with her duties, and most importantly (for me) is that she really cares about animals. She really took the time to play with my kitty and sent me updates while away :) I will definitely rebook with her again.
