“Anna took great care of our kitties on our recent trip. Our kitties were comfortable and happy, and Anna provided lots of updates and photos for us. We’ll definitely be booking her again for future cat sitting needs”

“Elizabeth did an amazing job with Lady Mae while staying at my apartment for the weekend. Was extremely communicative and followed all instructions. Was a pleasure to work with her and will definitely be requesting her services next time I’m out of town.”

“Lizette accepted our invitation to sit at the last minute and she flexibly performed the job despite taking care of cat/kittens for another client. She was affectionate and caring with our pups, and communicated throughout the sit via Rover chat. She included videos and photos of our dogs on walks and left our home in the same state that she found it. The only improvement feedback we had for her was to ensure that she gives our dogs all the walks that we agreed they needed. We are thankful to have found her available for the job.”

“I was very skeptical about using Rover’s services for the first time and I’m glad I chose Genki. My pet and apartment were both in the same condition when I returned from my trip. He was very accommodating to my pets needs. Due to this great first experience, I feel much more confident using Rover now.”

“I had a last minute family emergency and needed a sitter within 24 hours, Emily had watched my dog Buddy before and was so kind to watch her without much of a notice! Emily will make sure your pets are in good hands, will definitely be reaching out again for my next trip. Highly recommend!!!”

“Jami was the most excellent anyone could be. She canceled her original plans for the night to dog sit for Teddy, knowing I was coming into town and not having any luck finding anyone else to stay with him while I attended a concert. I was extremely late getting out the door and she had no problem being extremely patient, waiting around the corner just reading until we gave the go-ahead to come switch for our parking spot at the motel in which we were staying. Once finally WITH Teddy, she did a wonderful job keeping him company and sent me plenty of pupdates that he was just relaxing and snuggling. She communicated clearly about how long she could stay and we encountered zero issues meeting her back on the agreed upon time. 12 out of 5 stars here. Absolutely book with Jami. :)”

“Rose was great. We needed last minute dog sitting. She had quick and great communication throughout the day. Followed all instructions for our pup and even sent pics :) would recommend and use again :)”
About: My name's Kat and I absolutely love dogs! I've been taking care of them for over 20 years. I also volunteer at the local animal shelters as a dog walker so am extremely comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My current fur babies are a 16 year old Morkie (Maltese-Yorkie) named Sophie and a 6 year old poodle-bichon mix named Wally. We are a package deal. :) We live in a small house with beautiful fenced-in backyard in mid-city. Together, Sophie, Wally and I will make sure your pup has an amazing time during their stay! We look forward to meeting you! I work normal hours running a small business from home so am able to give lots of attention to your pup! We typically take 2 shorter walks a day, generally around 15-20 minutes each. I also take a longer walk (about an hour) around lunch time and will bring along any higher-energy dogs I’m watching who need more exercise. Playtime happens whenever your dog wants! Wally loves playing with his toys and other dogs, so they will have a playmate if they come over. The house is on the corner lot and has a fenced-in backyard that I let the pups out in every couple hours. I will always greet you first with Sophie and Wally outside to ensure the pups will be just fine, but Sophie and Wally are sweet and used to having friends around so that hasn’t been an issue in the past. Inside we have hardwood floors. The space is a decent size with 2 bedrooms and a kitchen area, so large enough to separate the dogs if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. The pups have full roam of the house. They are both super chill. Sophie mainly cuddles up in her bed under my desk as I work or chooses to hide and sleep under my bed. Wally hangs out in the AC in the living room and watches out the front window - he’s the “neighborhood watch.”
“Lillian is terrific. On time, thoughtful and diligent. She is flexible as well, and was able to extend her time with us no problem. And the doggies loved her! Highly recommend!”

“Jehiny was wonderful! She took care of my English bulldog while I was away for the weekend and sent lots of pictures and updates. The house was so clean it looked untouched when I got back! Will definitely have Jehiny back again!”

“Liz did great with my little pup over a long weekend trip. He was chipper and seemed well exercised and possibly better at sitting when I returned! He’s a puppy and can be a handful when he gets excited but she seemed well prepared for him. She also sent regular updates which I appreciated. I would definitely book with Liz again!”

“Amber was our savior. We had a family emergency and she came to house sit our dog chili and was cool when we needed to extend our trip halfway thru. She took great care of our home and our pup. Will book again!”

“Jayde was a lovey house sitter! She was great with our senior dog and younger pup! She was communicative and when we arrived home the dogs were excited to see us and sad to see Jayde leave. Highly recommend!”

“Prabha was a great petsitter (and housesitter!). We got plenty of updates, she understood our dogs complicated prescriptions, and handled walking both dogs at once. We got back to a clean house and happy dogs. We're already planning to use her in the future.”

“Veronica was amazing — very professional and really engaged well with our dog. I especially liked that they truly understood the breed of my dog. They were great!”

Anna is very kind, loving, sweet and overall the best pet sitter you can ask for. She really cares for your pets with love. I had to leave her with two sick and one wild cat, and they all adored her and she communicated their conditions every now and then and able to take her to the vet before the condition got worse. She left the house clean and she is definitely coming back to my house and to my pets anytime! I highly recommend Anna but also selfishly I dont want her to get too busy and not have time for my cats next time! 😭 We just love her too much!

Charlotte was so accommodating to our schedule and gave our new kitten and senior dog a lot of love! It was so nice to enjoy our vacation and know that they were being given so much love and attention. Our flight home was delayed a few times and Charlotte was able to stay later than anticipated to look after our babies. We appreciate her so much!!

We’ve now had Taylor watch our pets twice, and both times have been wonderful. Renny and Tuxedo were happy and well cared for, and Taylor even handled our tarantula without missing a beat. It’s a relief to have someone reliable who’s comfortable with all our animals—including the unconventional ones. Highly recommend!

Amber did great with our 2 dogs. This was our first time having an in home sitter from an app so we were very nervous. One of our dogs is very anxious and vocal. She took her time to do a little bit of training with him. That was very much appreciated. We would book her again.

Valeria is amazing and we’re so glad to have found her through Rover. She stayed at our home for two weeks to care for our dog while we were on vacation and sent us daily updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. Valeria is trustworthy, communicative, and our dog absolutely loves her. :)

Destiny was by far the best pet sitter and house sitter we’ve ever had. She followed all of my senior dog’s many specific care instructions perfectly. She took wonderful care of our house, garden, and most importantly our fur baby. When we came home I could tell from my dog’s demeanor that she had genuinely been well cared for exactly as we’d asked. I can’t say enough good things, and would highly recommend her. Thank you so much for taking such incredible care of Pickle and our home! You made it possible for me to actually relax and enjoy a vacation for once 😂

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Taylor! We booked her to watch our Great Pyrenees, Penelope, while our family was in Maui, and she truly exceeded every expectation. From the moment we left, Taylor kept us at ease with regular updates, photos, and check-ins. There is nothing better than being on vacation and seeing your pup happy, comfortable, and clearly well-loved. Penelope is a big girl with a big personality, and Taylor handled her beautifully. What really set Taylor apart was how she handled an unexpected situation — a home inspector came by during the stay, and she managed it calmly, professionally, and without us needing to worry for a second. That kind of composure and good judgment is hard to find and means everything when you are trusting someone with your home and your pet. We returned to a happy, healthy Penelope and a completely seamless experience. We would absolutely book with Taylor again and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely cares. She is the real deal!
