Christy was great! She took great care of our cats, feeding them treats, giving medicine and spending time with them. We will definitely recommend her.

Kitty crew all loved her. My oldest cat is normally my judge of good babysitters because of her skittish nature. Natalie had her out of hiding and playing on the first visit. Mira doesn't even come out of hiding for my family (and she used to live with them).

Love Jessica. I had some schedule changes and she was very accommodating. My two dogs fell in love with Jessica. I will definitely be hiring her again in the future.

This was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyone’s pet!

There’s nothing better than coming home to a happy, not-stressed pups. TY, Sarah! Also, she’s low-key a pet photographer judging by my Rover cards.

About: I’ve had over 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and understand the responsibility and attention they need to stay happy and healthy. I currently have two Labrador Retrievers who are very energetic, so I’m used to managing high-energy dogs and keeping them active and engaged. I’ve also spent time helping out at local dog shelters, assisting with feeding, cleaning, and giving dogs attention and care. This experience has helped me become patient, attentive, and comfortable with dogs of all temperaments. I work weekdays in the morning to mid day usually, and my weekend availability can vary. However, I manage my schedule carefully and plan ahead, allowing me to stay flexible and reliably accommodate pet care needs when needed. Safety and trust are really important to me when caring for pets. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, I make sure the space is clean, safe, and free from anything that could be harmful. I stick closely to each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any specific instructions. I pay attention to their behavior to make sure they feel comfortable and not stressed. I also keep a calm, supervised environment and treat every home with respect, so both pets and owners feel at ease.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have cared for them in their senior years with love and respect. This included giving medications, caring for incontinence and overall creating an environment that met their sometimes, seemingly to the outside world, over the top needs. But, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do to make their lives a little better and as comfortable as possible. I’m a stay at home mom and housekeeper so I have a flexible schedule Monday through Friday between the hours of 9am to 3pm. I currently care for one family’s 5 dogs about 10 days a month. So I can take helping a a few more families. I am currently available to do drop in visits and walking of your pets at your home. I am a very cautious and detail oriented person so if I’m caring for your pet I will be as diligent about keeping them safe during walks and outdoor time as I am with my own.

Elise took excellent care of our old, yet energetic Lucki. She also took the time to meet and greet as we are new clients and new to Rover. Will call on her again!

Cheyene did a great job with our anxious pup and crazy husky! She was on time, sent great pics, and gave us feedback about how Zelda and Willow were behaving to make us feel more at ease with our first time using Rover.

About: Having grown up around dogs and cats, I'm comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, whether your pet loves to play or prefers a calmer environment. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible while you're away. I work part time during the week, so I have a lot of time to care for pets, do check in’s, feed, and give extra cuddles! I live in a walkable neighborhood and a backyard with lots of space for your pet to roam around. I also live in a clean, spacious house.

About: Lover of all pets, especially big dogs! I have never known a home without a dog. Bully breeds and rescues have a special place in my heart. We currently have one lovable special old pitty at home. I am very comfortable with administering medicine, assisting with lifting the pet up, or in to a couch/bed. I will walk as slow or fast as they want. I personally miss having a pet that I can walk with ( our old guys isn’t up for that this days) and would love to take yours on a walk! I work remotely several days a week and have availability on most weekends and evenings. I work remotely several days per week and can often sneak out for afternoon walks. I am available on some evenings, in between kid activities as well as weekends. I would treat any pet like they are my own. Nice walk at their desired pace, talk to them, refresh water and give a treat. Whatever they need!

About: Since I was a kid, I've always had cats and dogs. I also grew up caring for horses, goats, and barn cats in exchange for horseback lessons. Currently, I have a cat and a senior dog whom I love with all my heart. I promise to treat your animals with the same diligence, attentiveness, and care. I am extremely reliable and follow directions thoroughly. I am physically fit and able to walk dogs for long distances with ease. I can also jog with dogs or play fetch with them if you'd like more exercise for your pet. Balance is important in life -- I am happy to help you out! I look forward to giving your pets the best care imaginable. I have nearly full availability for pet sitting for the next few months. I am available weekdays and most weekends, with some exceptions. I can take on long-term house sitting if needed, up to 1 week. I am able-bodied and able to walk or sometimes jog with dogs. If your dog prefers catch or tug-of-war, I am happy to play with them. Exercise is important for cats, too. My own cat is silly and only likes to play in very specific ways, but still, I try my best to play with him and provide the enrichment he deserves. I will try my best to get to know your animal and learn how they like to play. I am also willing to brush animals, crate them, and provide medicine. I am very respectful upon entering homes -- I always take off my shoes to ensure cleanliness. If I am staying overnight, I promise to treat your home with respect and boundaries.

About: Comfortable working with any species, breed, or age group. My 14+ years in the veterinary field have given me a lot of knowledge to be the best pet care provider I can be. I work remotely. Mainly available after 9 am, over my lunch break, and after 5 pm. This will work well for morning/evening walks and a potty break over lunch. If you have wifi, I can spend more quality time with your 4 legged family members throughout the day. I have our downstairs area where my office is located gated off and I can crate your pet if necessary. My dog used to sleep in my office while I worked all day.

About: I have a genuine love for animals! Growing up, I planned to get into the veterinary field. This didn’t pan out, but I interned at a local vet hospital and was a small animal science major my first year of college. I grew up around cats and dogs and always have treated them like they’re part of the family. I usually enjoy being around animals more than most people 😅. I work from home most days (about 75% of the time) and can be available to spend a great amount of time with your pet! I look for guidance from the owner on their expectations surrounding their pets and like to hold to the routines as much as possible to ensure the best care is provided.

About: I’ve had cats all of my life, and have dog-sat for friends, neighbors, and coworkers since becoming an adult. My own little orange kitty has many medical adventures—so I’m also very used to administering medicine to cats. I have flexibility in my work hours and can work around routine meetings - allowing for flexibility when caring for our loved ones! I know some furballs need more together time than others so also have a job where I can work virtually too! I love working under instruction—every pet is different and needs different attention and affection! I love to give cuddles and have playtime, and am very detail-oriented when taking care of pets.

About: I've had a household full of pets for 12 years, and I can't go without! I bring my experience as a pet owner of dogs, cats, small mammals, and reptiles, as well as hundreds of hours of volunteer experience at a local shelter. I know how to provide many different kinds of enrichment to suit your pet personally, I have basic training experience, and I'm able to provide walks to all sizes of dogs in any weather on any terrain. I can also administer medication, and provide select grooming services to most pets. I'm currently available at any time Monday through Thursday, and available at 6PM or later on Friday and Saturday! I am not available on Sundays (exceptions can be made at my discretion). I can stop by at these times for any duties you require. I am happy to care for your pets however you desire in your home. If I'm stopping by for a check-in and some feeding, I'll make sure that I spend time with your pet to make sure they're alright. If you have an enclosed backyard you would like me to make use of, I'm happy to take any dogs out for a play session! Whatever you are set up for at your home and are comfortable entrusting me with, I will strive to meet those requests the best I can.

About: The huge labradoodle I'm holding in my fav photo in the gallery was less than a year old when it was taken - so I can baby even the biggest puppies. The smallest and peppiest, too - I got a lot of experience sitting my sister's teensy jack russell/pug puppy, Peach. She is not always a peach... But she has helped me learn to housebreak a dog and teach tricks, so I thank her for that. I love old dogs too, and everything in between. I like figuring out a dog's personality to figure out how to care for them. Whether they need some space or like attention, have a lot of energy that needs expending, etc. I have reliable transportation, so I'm comfortable taking your dog on longer walks on trails if they are comfortable in a car. I'm an active person who works from home, so I can stay with your dog throughout the workday if I can use your internet! Currently working from home and making my own hours, very flexible. Looking for restaurant work, so nights will be unavailable some days in the future. I try to match the level of care provided by owners as best I can! I give a great massages to dogs and cats who appreciate it and love to love on them if they'll let me, but respect their need for space just as much. I grew up in a cat-ruled household, but had a lot of dogs in our extended family. Big dogs have a special place in my heart.

Carol gave us such peace of mind in caring for our kitties while we were away! She sent us pictures of the kitties which made us smile and enabled us to enjoy our trip knowing they were doing just fine. It's obvious that Carol is a caring person and very reliable.
