“PSA: BOOK E FOR ALL YOUR PET NEEDS🗣️🔊 I cannot say enough good things about E. We will use them everytime we go on vacation. E came to our place before our trip to get a vibe of the cats, learn the home, and just understand what we needed. It was so professional and made us feel so safe and comforted to leave our cats with E. Immediately, our cats loved E! Every visit, E took so many pictures, and that really helped us on our 2 week vacation. They did everything we asked them too - they tailor their care to what you need them too. E loves all pets and we could immediately feel that. They also caught a big problem! Our AC went out while we were gone, and E let us know, and fixed it by finding the circuit box to turn it back on. That gave us peace of mind and saved us $$$$ to not have to call a HVAC guy. Overall, do yourself a favor and book E!!!🥰🥰”


“Deana took great care of my little gentleman cat. Lots of updates and plenty of pictures, as usual. Highly recommend to feel comfortable when you leave your little ones at home.”



“Kate went above and beyond with our two cats that we had to leave for an extended amount of time. We received multiple updates and fun photos each visit. It gave us such peace of mind to know they were safe and being well taken care of. She even updated us on weather conditions and helped prepare our home for an upcoming storm when we couldn’t return home in time. We will definitely be rebooking Kate in the future and know our two boys will be very excited to see us go!”

“My go to for Bing when I’m out of town! Seriously wouldn’t know who else I’d go to that would take as good of care and be as thoughtful as Doc is. Couldn’t recommend enough!”


“Faith took great care of my two senior cats while I was away. She also brought in mail/packages and provided great communication. I would not hesitate to use her again!”


“Mimi did such a great job taking care of our Lulu! We loved the visit updates and pictures. She seemed very happy upon our return and we owe it all to Mimi! Will definitely rebook. 😊”


“Riley took excellent care of my two cats while I was out of the country for a week! She stayed in contact, sent lots of pics, and kept my mind at ease about the wellbeing of my little loves ❤️ I would definitely book her again in the future 😌”


“Dani is fantastic! She took excellent care of my little kitties. 😸 Georgie took to her instantly which shows the kind and caring spirit she has. We don't travel very often, but when we do I hope Dani is around to take care of the fury ones we love. Thanks again Dani!”


“Cristina is the best cat sitter we've ever had. She clearly loves animals, she asked thoughtful questions when meeting us and gave great updates throughout the days of her cat sitting for us. She really went above and beyond for our kitties, Fiona and Moses, and we will certainly turn to Cristina for our future cat sitting needs. If you want a sitter who is conscientious, attentive, and will give your furry family members the love they deserve, look no further!”


“3-Happy Cats + 4-Happy Vacationed Humans. >> Olivia is fantastic. We had a 5-day trip and this was our first experience with Rover. We were apprehensive when we first downloaded the app because so much of it is geared to dogs, but they have a great setup for cat owners too. Olivia dropped by before our trip to meet our cats and us. She is very professional and a real animal lover. She patiently listened while we explained what we feed the cats and when. We showed her where the cat toys are and the litter boxes. She visited with each of the cats too. While we were on vacation we received updates on every visit. Photos of our small furry friends playing, eating, getting a good scratch behind the ears. And when we returned they were the most content we have ever seen them. Normally we get back from trips and the boxes smell or the water is dry but Olivia took care of it all. The Rover app itself is a little quirky but once we figured it out and received the text messages from Rover and Olivia - we were able to access all we needed.”


About: I’ve had dog, cats, reptiles, and fish pretty much all my life. I love meeting, playing, and taking care of animals. I live to see them happy and comfortable. I tend to get along with animals very well! I have multiple animals that I help take care of daily. They are like my siblings and I love them dearly. I am my family’s pet sitter and would like to expand. I much rather keep the animal(s) in their own home to be the most comfortable. I like to build trust with any animal I come to care for like it is my own.

“I hired Jackie to come to my apartment once a week and check on my two beta fish tanks and my tarantula. I was so relieved that she took the job because a lot of people are too intimidated by spiders to accept. She went above and beyond taking care of my fish and my spider, going so far as to troubleshoot my filters and test my tank water. She is extremely knowledgeable about fish and spent a lot of time making sure they were OK. This is so much more than I expected and I felt so confident leaving my pets in her care. She was Amazing with my tarantula and even offered to go to the store and get more crickets for her when she ran out. She sent me pictures and asked questions when she wasn’t sure how to proceed with her and I was really relieved to know that all of my pets were getting a lot of attention and care. It was very obvious that Jackie really cared about doing a good job of taking care of my pets. She is very detailed with her check-in visits and always takes pictures. she is extremely capable and responsible and I felt very safe giving her my keys and access to my house. I would hire Jackie again in a second and if you are looking for a sign to hire her, this is definitely it! Wish I could give her 100 stars.”


About: New to Rover, but I started dog-sitting in college. I've taken care of blind senior dogs, puppies, adult dogs, not to mention guinea pigs, chinchillas, cats, turtles...the list goes on!! I work from home, so I can take my laptop and work from anywhere with internet. And if you don't have internet, I can use my hotspot! I treat my pets like they're my kids, so your pets would be like my nieces and nephews...lots of fun but I'll give 'em back!! When dog-sitting in your home, I try to leave everything just as you left it.

“Alyssa. Was available in short notice and took great care of our cat. She was able to give him his daily oral medication. And gave us daily photos and updates. Thank you!”


“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: Hello and thank you for considering me to take care of your fur baby! I love animals and have had them all my life. I grew up on a small farm with everything from cats and dogs to goats, chickens, and llamas. At the moment I currently have a senior cat named Jackson who’s living his best indoor/outdoor kitty life. In addition to being an animal lover, I am also a board certified general surgeon! I am comfortable with administering medication and injections if needed. Whether it be going for a walk or stop being by for some chin scratches, I’m your girl! I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s). I currently work full-time so unfortunately and unable to offer weekday boarding. However, I am available for drop in visits and walking services throughout the week. For clients with an enclosed yard, I am happy to go outside to help your pet stretch their legs and play. Otherwise pets will be kept on a leash at all times while on walks.

Madelynn L.
“When we were looking for someone dependable to care for our four dogs, we were very “picky” to find a suitable dog sitter. Madelynn is more than suitable to take care of our fur babies. Our dog’s absolutely love her! She very attentive to their needs with feeding times and medication. She is promptly on time, friendly, and caring. I highly recommend Madelynn for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to look after their pets.”
