If I could give Jess 100 stars instead of just 5, I would! I cannot say enough good things about her or recommend her enough. She checked in each day while we were away with pictures/videos, and little updates, our girl loved her, and I’ve already booked another stay with her! She definitely made our first Rover experience amazing and I feel lucky to have found her.

Sara did a wonderful job house sitting for our 4 cats! She was very responsive during the booking process and visited our home for a "Meet and Greet" with our cats before we traveled. While we were away, she kept us updated with photos and videos of how everyone was doing and getting along. We could tell our cats were at ease with her and that she knew how to handle a multiple pet household . We highly recommend Sara and will be rebooking her in the future.

About: Hello there, my name is Ethan! I have two dogs and one cat, but I take care of neighborhood cats. I feed them, water them, bathe them (not the strays because they don't let me), love on them, snuggle with them, walk them, and just in general adore them. I love trying to teach new tricks and rewarding them with pets and (if allowed) treats. I love playing with animals too, and I tend to be quite amused by the way they play. I love making them happy and giving them the attention they require and deserve. I have been around animals my whole life, and I hope to be around them for the rest of it. Every day I feed, water and otherwise care for my three pets. Going for walks at least once a day and playing with them to get their energy out and their daily exercise. Pets, cuddles, and playtimes are on the animals terms, and I don't press them to want contact. I try not to raise my voice with them if I don't have to, and I don't like physical punishment.

About: I tend to be fun, responsible, and calming for them. I like it and take pride in it. The best thing about caring for animals, is seeing their personalities, what they consider manners, and seeing them light up when they're being respected on their terms too. The best part of my mornings on my family farm, is taking a hike with the Bassett. Neither of us are satisfied with our morning until it happens. She needs it, and deserves it. While I'm away from her, I need to hike, or I get soft I ask owners what their pets needs and personalities are. What they consider manners, and if they are tricksters, what to expect. All animals are their own kind of person, and they deserve to be treated as such.

About: I have recently relocated back to this area, so I am opening my services back up. I previously worked through word of mouth. I am now in a different location upon moving back, so I am putting out my feelers for what may be needed in my current local area. If this sounds like something we can connect on, please feel free to reach out! I have been surrounded by animals from the time I was a young child. I love learning more about them and finding new ways to communicate with them. I have had many opportunities to care for several different breeds and sizes of dogs and cats. They never cease to intrigue and amaze me. Each one has their very own unique personality traits and tricks. I have had several four-legged siblings and loves throughout my years. My first love was a beautiful, white cat. Her name was Snowball. My second was Frankie. He was my baby stray kitten that I found in my yard, bottle fed, and nursed back to health. Now, I spend my extra time with my four-legged sister. She is a lab mix rescue, and we have an incredibly special bond. It has become my therapy and passion to work with animals, and I truly Iook forward to meeting you and your loves! I recently relocated back to the area, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I am flexible with days and times. I have years of experience, and I am willing and able to properly provide the care you need. Each animal has different needs and personality traits, so I look forward to hearing and learning about yours.

About: With 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I bring a deep understanding and love for animals to every pet I care for. Whether it’s my own beloved pets or those of others, I’ve spent decades providing attentive, compassionate, and reliable care. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating your pets like family. I focus on creating a safe, loving environment while tailoring my care to meet their unique needs. You can trust that your furry friends will receive the same level of dedication and attention as my own. I do work full time, but my schedule is pretty flexible, as I set my own hours. My full time job is hybrid, remote three days a week and I travel two days a week. Those days are not set, but I prefer to travel on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I am a great communicator and will always provide ample notice if I am not available, and I am happy to work with you to my best ability. When it comes to pet sitting, I ensure your furry family members feel safe, loved, and at ease. I prefer pet sitting in the client home because this is where your pets are going to be the most comfortable. I prioritize maintaining their routines and creating a calm, familiar atmosphere. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime and snuggles, I follow your instructions to the letter, ensuring your pets feel cared for and content while you’re away. I also find it important to maintain a clean, comfy, and secure space. With my years of experience, I understand the importance of communication and will keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are in loving hands. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention I would for my own pets, ensuring their happiness and well-being every step of the way.

About: I am the biggest animal lover! Everyone I know has relied on me to take care of their beloved fur-babies and you guys should too! I am new to Rover, but not new to animal care! I have had animals my whole life and pride myself in giving the best care. I currently am a high school social studies teacher. As an animal lover, however, I am very much looking forward to incorporating pet care into my daily schedule! I have had pets my whole life and can’t wait to meet your fur-babies! I live in an apartment with two cats—Princess and Lilly. I would be happy to provide in home boarding for your cats or drop in visits! My cats are a little indifferent on dogs, however, so it would take a meet and greet before deciding on boarding a dog! With that being said, I can do walks and drop ins before and after school and on weekends. I will be happy to help in whatever way I can!

About: I’ve taken care of my household dogs for 18 years. Sadly due to my father’s allergies I haven’t been able to have a cat. But have been around them in any chance I can get and have experience caring for them. I’m working part time but would love to make room for taking care of your pets. I also volunteer at St Mary’s but will do my best to fit your animal into my schedule. I can’t care for pets in my own home due to my family not wanting to be around pets at the moment. But I would love to branch out to other homes to care for your pets.

About: I’ve mostly worked as an RN but I’m currently a stay at home momma! I've always had a passion in helping others, but my second passion in life is caring for animals! What better side gig than to help care for some lovely pets. I do have experience through my nephew with service dogs. I attended his two-week training to learn how to handle the dog and commands. I've always had pets, particularly cats and dogs, with a few fishy exceptions. I've been trusted by many friends and family members as the go-to person for pet sitting. You can depend on me to be reliable and caring with your fur babies! Fortunately I’m able to work with most schedules. I’m able to be very flexible with my routine thankfully!! We go with the flow over here! I have a fenced in yard, a garage & plenty of house space. We do have one dog and one cat currently! They are spoiled & very used to being around other animals!

Christina was a great match for Sir Gizmo and us ! She is very professional and is just a really great human. She is also very patient as I needed to adjust time frames a couple times. All I can say is if you choose Christina as your Rover you will be getting the absolute best host available. We couldn't be happier with the service she provided ! Prompt, professional, polite and a positive attitude ! What more could we ask for ! We loved her ! Gizmo says she is very knowledgeable and has a special way with keeping him calm as he knows he has separation anxiety. It was obvious he loved her too ! Can't say enough good things about Christina as she made us feel at ease and left us with a great experience. Thanks so much Christina and Rover.com ! What a great service these two provided.

Christina was absolutely amazing! She kept us updated the whole time we were gone and sent such cute pictures of our boy and all their activities. I had no doubt that he was in the best hands possible, and was so cared for and loved. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!
