“We had Kylee come check on our dogs while we were at the beach for 6 days. We were nervous to leave our dogs since we had never left them with a sitter for more than 1 day. Kylee was INCREDIBLE and kept us updated on how they were doing and made sure they felt loved while we were on vacation! We’ll definitely be using her again! ❤️”
“A huge lifesaver. They were able to feed and visit with my gfs dog and give me peace of mind for the morning. They were very communicative and sent a great photo of him.”
“Ruth was simply amazing! From the contact with me, to all the amazing time she spent with my cats! I couldn't recommend her any higher than 5 stars, but she deserves 100! Even my shy cat came out to great her a few times! She gave me peace of mind that my cats were well cared for and safe!”
“April was amazing. Very professional. Took care of any changes we had immediately. Our Animal kingdom loved her, and she loved taking care of them. She was always on time for her drop-ins and she checked in and checked out perfectly. She let us know of any issues, a and took care of them immediately. Such a pleasure knowing that we could relax knowing our pets would be well cared for. We were able to concentrate on our family. We will most definitely book with her again.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program that meets on Monday and Tuesday evenings, but other than that my schedule is incredibly flexible! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.
“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”
About: Hello, I am willing to work with any pets, large or small, scaly or with hair, and have relatively open availability to help YOU with your pet care needs! I'm currently between jobs and recovering from an injury, so I am available most days for whatever assistance you may need. Typically available most afternoons and evenings. I have personally cared for and maintained number of tropical fish tanks, as well as exotic houseplants for myself (like pets to me!) and others. I've assisted friends and family with their own pets; my personal philosophy is to keep animals engaged with various enrichment and/or physical activities if they are able, though I understand some are not so outgoing and may prefer quiet days in!
“I'm had an emergency on a Monday morning. By Monday afternoon Micah was booked and taking care of my Daisy and the chickens out back. Flawless communication, attention to detail, above and beyond anything ever anticipated. 5 stars. I highly recommend Micah and will be reaching out for future event forseen or unseen. Thank you Micah and the Rover team”
“This is the second time DeDe has looked after our pets (1 dog and 1 cat) and it’s so comforting to know they are well cared for. We always come home to happy, healthy pets when she cares for them :)”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have always been their primary caregiver. Over the past few years, I’ve raised and trained my sister’s puppy, gaining valuable hands-on experience in structure, patience, and positive reinforcement. As a senior nursing student who values responsibility and attention to detail, I bring the same level of care and reliability to your pet. I love staying active and would be honored to care for and walk your furry family member. I’d love to connect! I currently only have classes one day a week and am very flexible. I prefer afternoon or evening walks if that is possible, but can adjust! I care for every pet as if they were my own, focusing on safety, routine, and plenty of love. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and playtime while keeping your home secure and tidy. I provide updates for peace of mind and always ensure leashes, doors, and gates are safely secured. If need be I can take them over to my house off of Lake Hollingsworth with a fenced in backyard, but overall I will work around your preferences!
“Jaycie is amazing!!! She was communicative, great with our girls, and very great to work with. She kept us updated the entire time we were gone and definitely went above and beyond! Will definitely book with her again.”

Imperial pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are so pleased that Ruth took care of our three kitties during our recent trip! We have been uncomfortable about our upcoming trips because travel upsets our kitties and we have to leave them behind. After our trial trip with Ruth, we feel that we can travel this year without the worry because she will give TLC to our sweet cas while we are gone.
Jennifer took absolutely wonderful care for my two cats while I was away. They were well-fed, comfortable, and clearly given lots of attention and love. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. 🐾
I recently had Sia cat sit for my cat, Mylo, and she was fantastic. Sia came to my home each evening, feeding him, letting him enjoy some time on the back porch, and giving him company. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring. She sent quick updates and was punctual every day, which gave me great peace of mind. When I returned, Mylo was relaxed and happy clear signs he’d been well cared for. It’s not easy to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but Sia absolutely did. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, kind, and caring cat sitter.
