“Extremely kind and communicative! It was amazing seeing so many photos and videos of my babies while I was away. Natalie took the time to hang out and play with my cats, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend!”


“Ana was a great sitter. She took care of my two cats and parrot and was super enthusiastic and friendly. She even fed my parrot fresh fruits and vegetables. I'll definitely be using her in the future!”


“Laura has looked after my cats before and I felt very safe having her drop in on them again while I'm away. She's easy to communicate with and I appreciate the updates and photos of my cats that she sends. I would book with her again in the future.”


“Jenny is the best!!! Always had our cat looking forward to her visits and we enjoyed the pictures/comments. Gave us ease of mind while we were away and she also looked after our snake!! The updates provided let us know our cats mood and eating habits.”


“This was our first time using a pet sitting service and Ellen was wonderful! She took great care of our cat Fonz while we were gone. She provided lots of pictures and updates and Fonz was quite happy with her! He normally hides from strangers, but he did not hide from her and got lots of pets! I will definitely rebook with Ellen again!”


“Kristen was amazing! She communicated clearly and consistently. There were always detailed updates and pics of Cheeto and Pain during each check-in. My cats are usually a bit shy around new people, but they warmed up to her surprisingly quickly. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands while we were on vacation. This was our first time using Rover, and it was a great experience—thanks to Kristen! We’ll definitely be booking with her again for our next trip.”


About: i’ve taken care and have lived with dogs for all of my life being a part of someone’s home and taking care of someone’s dog or pet is something I want to accomplish to give the owner a peace of mind to know their animal is in good hands. I work part time for a swim school, teaching kids how to swim for their safety. Once I’m home, I make sure my own animals get their love and attention. I can easily crate your dog if needed, and have a fenced backyard. In your own home would be most fitting however, and would provide proper pet necessities

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is mt attention to detail and my surroundings. When coming in and out of houses, I am aware of what doors are open so no pets get out. While on walks, I am checking for other animals so pets don’t dart out or get into an unsafe circumstance. I always prioritize safety and happiness while pets are in my care! I am a college student who works during the weekdays. Rover is another way for me to pick up extra “shifts” in between school and work! I will ensure all safety expectations are met while at a clients home. I want to make sure not only that they are physically safe but that all pets feel safe when I walk into their home!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From growing up with family pets to regularly watching the dogs and cats of friends and relatives, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and routines. What truly sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine bond I build with each pet—I treat every cat and dog as if they were my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable when their owners are away, and I pride myself on providing consistent, attentive care that brings peace of mind to both pets and their humans. Pet care is a natural and essential part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my days around my pets’ needs because their well-being is always my top priority. From morning walks and mealtimes to playtime, grooming, and evening wind-downs, I make sure every aspect of their care is handled with attention and love. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally make time for. That same level of dedication and reliability carries over when I care for other people’s pets, as I treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility I give my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or new clients, I prioritize comfort, safety, and consistency in their routine. In my home, I create a calm pet friendly environment where cats and dogs have space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I maintain a regular schedule for feeding, walks, play time, and bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in the client’s home I respect their space and stick closely to the routine, their dog is familiar with. I also provide regular updates photos, messages, and check in so owners feel connected and reassured.

“Mandy has been absolutely amazing! She did not disappoint! She took excellent care of our diabetic cat by sending us recaps of her visit with Sarah (our cat), and photos! I am recommending her to anyone who wants someone kind, caring, compassionate and overall wonderful to take care of your pet with confidence! You will be able to feel a sense of relief while away from your pet!”


About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and over five years of hands-on experience caring for cats. Growing up, I’ve bonded with all kinds of pets—dogs, rabbits, and even goldfish—which taught me to understand their unique behaviors and needs. I’m especially attentive to subtle cues, like a cat’s mood changes or a puppy’s training milestones, and I adapt my care for seniors requiring extra patience. I also know basic pet first aid, so you can trust I’ll keep your furry (or scaly!) friend safe and happy while you’re away.😊 Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine—I’m available after work on weekdays and have full flexibility on weekends. Mornings and evenings are ideal for walks, feedings, or playtime, and weekends allow for longer visits or special care (like grooming or training reinforcement). I prioritize punctuality and consistency, so you can rely on me to stick to your pet’s schedule. Plus, my experience managing multiple pets means I’m great at balancing their needs efficiently! My approach to pet care is customized to each animal’s needs, whether in my home or a client’s. For cats, I prioritize a calm, enriching environment with scheduled playtime, clean litter boxes, and cozy resting spots. With dogs, I focus on structured routines—regular walks, training reinforcement (like basic commands), and plenty of affection. For small pets like rabbits or fish, I maintain meticulous habitat care. In clients’ homes, I respect their space while ensuring pets feel secure: adhering to dietary/medical instructions, sending photo updates, and leaving the home tidy. My goal is to minimize stress for both pets and owners by combining reliability with genuine love for animals.

About: With 6 years of experience taking care of my own pet poodle and pet-sitting for friends and family, I’ve cultivated my ability to safely and happily care for a variety of pets. From chihuahuas to German shepherds, I can care for any furbaby! When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest easy that they are in good hands. Open and transparent communication is something I strongly value, so when your pet is with me you’ll receive regular updates on their well being. I am committed to making sure that your lovely pets maintain their routines and happiness! Currently my availability is from 8am to 8pm at any given day of the week. Holidays are always up for consideration, just shoot me a message! Walks, check ins and pet sitting are all available. Over the years I have gained an expertise in providing a safe and trusting environment for pets. This includes ensuring that pets are never left in hazardous situations and always provided a comfortable space to stay in. I believe strongly in the importance of trust in pet care, which is why I make it a priority to build a strong bond with both the pets and their owners! I also understand the importance of a stress free environment, so I take extra steps to ensure your pet’s comfort through interactions and their favorite items!

About: Ever since I was young, I dreamed of having a pet of my own. Although my parents weren’t ready to give me that responsibility, I was lucky enough to have family members who trusted me to care for their dogs and cats. Every weekend became something special I’d wake up excited to take their pets on walks, play with them in the yard, or just curl up beside them. These weren’t just tasks to me; they were moments I truly cherished. Over time, those experiences shaped the way I see animals not just as pets, but as part of the family. Through the years, I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, attentive, and full of love when caring for a furry friend. It’s not just about feeding or walking them it’s about making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every single day. That’s the kind of care I believe every pet deserves, and it’s the kind I’ve always been proud to give I am currently out of school for the summer l so I have a lot of free time to enjoy and care for an animal and follow any routine or schedule they might have. At home, I have a fully fenced backyard where pets can safely run, play, and enjoy the fresh air. Inside, my house has an open floor plan that gives them plenty of space to move around comfortably. I’ve also set up a small indoor fence area so they can relax and be cared for in a cozy, secure spot when needed. Whether we’re inside or outside, I make sure pets feel right at home and always safe,

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, and I don’t just “watch” pets—I build a relationship with them. My own dog, Gadget, is almost 12 years old, and I’ve been his lifelong best friend, snuggle buddy, walker, and groomer. Whether it’s trail hikes, neighborhood strolls, or indoor games like hide-and-seek, I tailor care to what each dog enjoys most. What makes me different is my calm, caring approach. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to respond to a pet’s needs, not just follow a routine. I believe clear communication, trust, and creating a safe environment are essential to happy pets. From house training to meal routines to peaceful walks, I care for every dog like they’re part of my family—because to me, they are. As a stay-at-home dad, my schedule is flexible day or night and pet care is a natural part of our daily rhythm. I’m available on weekdays, evenings, and weekends to care for your pup with the same attention and love I give my own buddy, Gadget. My two daughters are also part of our pet-loving household—they enjoy going on walks and sharing snuggles with our furry visitors. Whether it’s a calm companion or a playful pup, your dog will be part of a warm, active, and caring environment throughout the day. I’d like to be mindful of creating a safe, trusting, and interactive environment for your pup in your home. I’d like to think I have a great attention to detail and like to keep things organized and clean just the way you need it.

Hi! I’m Xaiviea, I’m 29, and animals have been the biggest part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for just about everything—puppies, kittens, parrots, reptiles, ferrets, chinchillas, barn animals—you name it! I spent a couple years as a professional dog trainer at Petco, regularly volunteer at local shelters, and have been an emergency placement foster many times. I’ve even dabbled in reptile husbandry and helped get my own mom into reptiles—she now has five, and I help her care for them! Right now I live with family to help out my elderly parents, and I share my life with four lovable Frenchies and my sphynx cat, Chicken. (Yes, his name is Chicken. Yes, he lives up to it. 😂) My long-term dream is to open two animal rescues—one just for French Bulldogs and one for all animals—with tons of space for everything from horses to hedgehogs. I also hope to go back to school for biology and zoology, and I’m using Rover to help save for that goal. I treat every pet like my own—furry kids with unique needs, personalities, and big emotions. You can trust me to keep them safe, loved, and totally spoiled. 💖 Thanks for reading—I can’t wait to meet your babies! My schedule is completely open and i promise I will make caring for your pets my first priority. I can stay as long as you'd like or I can pop in as many times as you'd like. Whatever you want I'll make happen! I'm an animal freak and provide the best care possible. My dogs are all on individual diets and have there supplements and all!

“Emily is our go-to sitter. She's watched our pets twice now, and each time has done a wonderful job. She's very thorough, caring, and attentive to details. She's great about sending photos, timely updates and doing that little extra. I felt incredibly comfortable with her recent stint of watching our terrier over three days and making sure he was fed, had his meds and kept safe. Will definitely use her services again!”
