“Was such a sweet and professional person to work with. I would recommend her. She sent pictures and reassured me that my kitty was getting much needed attention! I'm grateful to her for watching my cat for such a long time! :D”

About: I have taken care of dogs of different breeds and ages. I love taking dogs for walks and playing fetch and of course for going to potty. For house sitting, I have house sat for months at a time for a couple who would go out of town several times through out the year. I am very careful to make sure that the house is kept the same way as when the owner left. I clean up after myself. I am available during the day and evenings if needed. My only unavailable day would be Sundays but Sunday evenings after 8 pm I am available. Also I'm not into football so I am available during football season. I just have the one cat and she is indoor only so I do not have a fenced in area so my house is not suitable for cat or dog sitting.

About: Growing up we always had multiple pets so I’ve taken care of them my entire life. My senior dog recently passed, so I have experience with older pets as well. I have lots of patience! I work full time Tues-Fri, but if it’s in the area I can likely do lunchtime visits as well. My schedule Sat-Mon is very flexible! I live in an apartment complex with a fenced in doggy park as well as easy access to walking trails. My apartment also has a camera in the living room so I can check in when I’m not at home. I enjoy being outside and taking long walks, just as much as I like to sit around and lounge!
About: I love all animals! I have owned a chameleon, cat dog, hamster you name it I’ve had it. I enjoy animals so I can ensure your baby will be taken care of as my own! My availability is from Monday - Thursday 6:00am - 3:30pm! :) Friday I’m completely available! :) If needed I can also do 10:00pm - 1:00am I had for cats and they had their own room! They had plenty of cat toys and many cat trees. They are my children so there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for them.

Hoover cat parents share their Rover experiences
Amy was extremely patient and kind to our 2 cats while we were on vacation. Our house was completely spotless when we got home and she did everything perfectly. We are so thankful that she was so caring and loving, especially with our shy boy Ringo. Thank you so much!
Kennedy came by for drop in visits for 6 days. It was our first occasion to use Kennedy. She was everything we could have hoped for. She showed up every day at the agreed time window. We were notified every time she arrived and when she left. She was always there past the 30 minute visit time. We will rest easy the next time we need pet care and Rover will be my first thing I use to contact Kennedy. Thank you so much Kennedy for taking care of us! Love, Joe, Gus and Jaq (R&B too)
Caelan was such a great pet sitter! He loved our babies like they were his own and you could tell from the pics how much our animals loved him back! He was a natural with our animals. Has great communication and provided some great pics! If you want someone who will make your pets feel at ease, definitely go with Caelan!
This was our first time using Rover and Sarah was so sweet to come check in on our kitty during the holidays and even on Christmas Day. I loved getting the updates and photos of him during her visits. She made sure he got plenty of play time and was kind enough to bring in our packages for us while we were out of town! Would definitely recommend booking with her and we will likely reach out again whenever we need care in the future!
