“Always on time and very considerate with the care of our Sammy Sam. Our Sammy Sam enjoyed spending time wit his sitter while we were out and about in New Orleans. Would definitely hire her sgsin”
“Joree was super sweet and communicative. Quick responses and very flexible. Left my place looking tidy and with a happy pup to come home to :) Highly recommend and will use again!”
“Ian is an absolute gift and a joy. He went above and beyond taking care of my cat Hero, who absolutely loves him and was comfortable chilling with him right away. I will 100% be working with Ian in the future, and if you do too your pet will be in wonderful, caring hands!”
“Susan provided last minute dog sitting services over a long holiday weekend. She took great care of Luna, sent me updates/pictures everyday, and left my home just as I left it. Highly recommend!”
“Karen was fantastic!! We were due to fly to an out of state wedding less than 24 hours after Francine rolled through. It took the city awhile to get power back and Karen happily offered to stay anyway, even without power the first night. It was a huge relief knowing our cat Pixie was in good hands and we were still able to see our friends get married. Karen communicates wonderfully, left our house spotless, and most importantly took the best care of our cat! She sent plenty of photos and Pixie was clearly very happy the whole time. Thank you again Karen, we would love to have you back to watch Pixie again in the future! :)”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 23 years of hands-on pet care experience, starting when I was just five years old. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every pet has unique routines, needs, and comfort levels. I’m also an active Wag walker with multiple 5-star reviews, which has strengthened my reliability, attention to detail, and ability to follow pet parents’ instructions closely. My top priorities are safety, patience, and consistency. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, energetic playtime, feeding, or extra TLC, I provide attentive care as if they were my own. I especially enjoy working with puppies and am comfortable with potty training support, basic leash skills, routine reinforcement, and plenty of positive energy. I’m a volunteer foster with a nonprofit organization, which has deepened my understanding of animal behavior and care across breeds and species. At home, I care for a kitten (Mylo, 1), a super senior cat (Daisy, 19), and a bearded dragon (Harley, 3), so I’m very comfortable with a variety of animals and care needs. I’m punctual, communicative, and respectful of your home and your pet’s routine. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you always feel informed and confident while you’re away. Your pet’s wellbeing truly matters to me, and I aim to build trust with both pets and owners on every booking. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available during the day and prefer bookings between 7am and 5pm. I am available seven days a week. I care for my kitten, senior cat, and bearded dragon. Sometimes I foster dogs as well. I cater to each one differently. Different species/ ages require different care. They all have their own unique personalities. I will adjust my care specifically for your pet needs & your requirements
“We are sooo thankful for Cheryl! Our dog requires a lot of extra care and attention for her urinary incontinence, and we got so lucky finding Cheryl. Her extensive experience caring for animals at all life and health stages helped ease our worry and stress leaving our fur babies home for a long weekend. She took great care of our babies, and we came home to a clean house and happy fur babies. Couldn’t ask for better, thank you!!!”
“Elizabeth stayed at our house to pet sit for our senior kitty. Elizabeth gave picture updates and was communicative the entire time while we were away. When we arrived, our kitty had clearly gotten tons of care and attention! The house was also kept clean and tidy just like when we left. Will definitely be using Elizabeth on future trips!”
“E is wonderful - calm and kind hearted. My animals were enamored from the get go. E spent the night at my house on short notice and will be Jake’s new dog walker! Highly recommended!”
“Apologies for the delayed review!!! Rachel is the best and Phoebe was in such good hands. She sent me pics and amazing communication. Will absolutely reach out in the future!!! 10/10”
“Khalifa took the absolute best and very spontaneous care of our two dogs. She’s absolutely trustworthy, super communicative. Always kept me updated about my baby’s and they were so happy. I highly recommend her!”
“Jenifer took such great care of our 2 cats! She was attentive, affectionate, and patient with them, as they can be demanding when it comes to feeding. Our cats are high maintenance and have to be fed 3 times a day at specific times, including an early 6:30 am, and she kindly fed them at their specified times. She also sent frequent updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. She’s also such a sweet person. I highly recommend her!”
“Hanna took care of our 3 animals in home. She asked detailed questions and communicated frequently while we were away. She is trustworthy and reliable. Would recommend 100%.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Taking care of three dogs, each with their own unique personalities and needs, is no small feat, but Emily rocked it! Our shepherd loved her walks, our snuggly chihuahua got all the cuddles she needed, and our grouchy senior chihuahua received the special care she required. It was such a relief knowing our pups were in loving, capable hands while we were away. On top of that, our home was just as we left it—clean and well cared for. We highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Laura is so sweet and did such a great job taking care of my pups. She updated me daily and sent me pictures of them while I was gone. Highly recommend!!”
“AMAZING. Truly took the time to make my two cats feel comfortable and cared for, even with one of them being injured. My request was last minute and he was accommodating and gave me peace of mind while out of town. Can’t recommend enough.”
“An amazing rover! Sadie took excellent care of our pups each time we had to go out of town !! Would recommend and would hire again! Your pups will be in good hands with Sadie .”
Irish Channel pet parents share their Rover experiences
Victoria was amazing like always! She took great care of our pups, and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in great hands. She left the house looking lovely, which was very helpful since we had guests stay with us immediately upon our return. Definitely recommend Victoria!!!!
Grace was fantastic. Being away from our pup over the holidays is never easy, but she made it so much better by being friendly, reliable, and very communicative - especially when some unexpected things came up on our street. We were also blown away when we came home to find she had gone above and beyond cleaning (vacuuming, dishes, linens), which we never asked or expected of her, but deeply appreciated. Her dog was sweet and got along well with Watson as well. We’d happily have Grace back anytime and highly recommend her!
Sadie was terrific with our dogs - especially our high-energy Flat-Coated Retriever. She did a great job watching them, including feeding and taking them for a walk - as well as giving them time to play in the back yard. She was very good with our retrievers - making sure that they followed their commands and behaved. She was also very flexible with our start and end times, which was very valuable to us. We highly recommend Sadie.
I can’t recommend Wendy highly enough. She took care of my dog Fenn for 7 days at my house. She is very responsive and sends photos and videos (in which my dog is grinning ear to ear) everyday. She handles the meds well and even watered the garden. She has a very sweet low key personality so animals love her. I will definitely be using her again soon.
