“Amy is so attentive to my two cats. She handles their feeding instructions perfectly and always goes above and beyond. Her communication really puts my mind at ease while we are traveling.”
“Sarah was AMAZING! This was my first time using rover.com and my first time having a stranger come into my house to watch a pet. I admit I was a little nervous, but after meeting her at her complimentary visit at my house to see our pet and see our house I had full trust in her character. She's lovely, and was SO sweet to my cat, who is not always so friendly to strangers. Can't thank you enough, Sarah, and will definitely book again in the future with you!”
“Devin was the ideal sitter! She updated me with detailed information about her visit, my pets health, a lot of pictures and the cats looked very happy with her. Would hire again!”
“Carla Joy was great to work with! I always try to find sitters who are comfortable with giving injected medicine and she was already an expert. I was so happy to leave my diabetic cat in such great care! Great pictures and communication while I was gone, came home to a happy cat. Will definitely book again!”
“Claire was super awesome with taking care of my three cats and keeping me updated on how they were all doing while I was away. Even my cat that is the most afraid of people warmed up to her so Claire definitely did a fantastic job taking care of my trio of cats! I did not have to worry about my cats at all while I was away which was a huge relief. I highly recommend having Claire look after your pets!!”
“I can’t speak more highly of Sarah. She not only took excellent care of my two cats, but she also made sure to update me on anything happening at the house (big wind storm, for example).”
“Susan was a very good pet sitter! She left many pictures and videos of her not just playing, but cuddling and enjoying being with my cat. She also left a hand written note, which was just lovely to return to. I will rebook with her whenever I need a sitter again. 10/10.”
“Alyssa did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was out of town for several days. She sent regular progress reports and let me know right away when anything unusual happened. I would absolutely book her again!”
“Mya was great, she came every day to check on my cat while I was out of town, booking with her was super easy, she’s punctual and quick to respond, she as well took care of my sister’s cats, we were both very pleased with her service. We highly recommend her.”
“Leah is amazing!! She always sends detailed daily reports about my cat and always sends a few pictures (which are my favorite part)! I completely trust her! She also has funny things to say about the sassy cat, which always make me laugh while I am away! Will always check with her first before I book anyone else!”
About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve had a deep love for dogs—I used to rescue street dogs and later joined an animal rescue organization in my hometown. Taking care of animals has always been my passion, and over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I started by helping neighbors and friends with their furry companions, ensuring they were happy, safe, and entertained. Now, I’m bringing that same love and dedication to Rover! At my home, your pup will have plenty of space to run and play in my large, gated backyard, fun playtime, and lots of cuddles. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, fetch, or just a cozy place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I treat every pup as if they were my own—because for me, dogs aren’t just pets, they’re family! 💕 Book with me, and let’s give your furry friend a stay filled with tail wags, fun, and lots of love! 🐕✨ Caring for animals isn’t just part of my routine—it’s my passion. Every day, I prioritize creating a nurturing and engaging environment for pets, whether they’re in my home or my client’s. My mornings start with feeding, playtime, and enrichment activities to keep pets happy and stimulated. Throughout the day, I ensure they receive attention, exercise, and companionship tailored to their needs. For cats, this means interactive play and quiet moments of bonding. For dogs, it includes, play sessions, and cuddles. Since I work with a flexible schedule, I can dedicate quality time to every pet in my care, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and at ease. Whether it’s a daily check-in, an overnight stay, or extended care, pet well-being is always my top priority. Your fur baby will always be treated like family. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep pet parents reassured. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure that every pet receives personalized care, love, and attention tailored to their unique needs. In my home, I create a safe, enriching environment where pets feel comfortable and loved—providing playtime, mental stimulation, cozy spaces for rest, and plenty of affection. I keep routines consistent, ensuring pets feel secure even when their parents are away. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, playtime, and companionship—while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I understand the importance of trust and communication, so I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep pet parents reassured.

“He was awesome! Kuro and him got a long very well! He walked him and find new ways to use his toys to keep kuro entertained. He also went above and beyond and helped us with a short notice visit! 100% recommend!”
“Fiona did a great job with my cat Sage! Sage can be shy but it seems like Fiona was able to get her to feel comfortable pretty quick, and Fiona was very responsive and punctual.”
“Erika is the BEST. She is reliable, professional, and has consistently taken great care of our cats and dogs. She has even gone down into a storm drain to rescue my trapped cat while I was out of town. Happy to trust her with our furry family members.”
About: With extensive experience living with dogs and cats in both small apartments and large farms, I’ve cared for various breeds, including dachshunds, labradors, mutts, and barn cats. With a flexible schedule due to school, I have multiple gaps throughout the day to provide regular check-ins and care for your beloved friendly pet. In your home, I prioritize creating a safe, loving environment for your pet or pets, ensuring they feel secure and well-cared for while you're away.

Piper has been cat sitting for me for a few years now and she always does a great job. She is extremely reliable, follows instructions, and is pleasant to interact with. And my very social cat is always relaxed and happy upon my return. I'd highly recommend Piper!
Madison did a great job making friends with Sofia, even though Charli wouldn't cooperate. She sent pictures regularly and maintained a consistant schedule. The cats were welcoming when we came home. Madison left everything neat and tidy. We were very pleased.
