“Julianna was really easy to communicate with and we so appreciated her daily updates and photos. We have a shy senior kitty but it seemed she warmed up to Julianna towards the end which was a huge relief to us.”
“Teffni took amazing care of my cats over a long week. She sent lots of pictures and she even got my shy girl to make an appearance or two! I would definitely call on Teffni again in the future. :)”
“Joseph took great care of our chickens while we were out of town. He showed up diligently at the same time every day and made sure they had everything they needed. The ladies were happy and healthy when we returned!”
“This is the second time I have booked Ariana to care for our now 10 year old cats who require more care. She has been the only cat sitter who has been able to get one of our cats to come out of hiding during a drop in visit. She sent photos everyday and was prompt and flexible in returning texts about care. I HIGHLY recommend her.”
“Ambar took care of our two cats as we had to go out of town due to a family emergency. She was kind, patient and professional. Especially one of our cats requires daily insulin shots. She was communicative the entire time and we highly recommend Ambar!!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and love animals. I’m highly responsible and always give lots of love and attention to the pets in my care. I work in the legal field and work from my home office Monday through Friday. I’m available during the week and some weekends. Your pet will always receive great care in my home. I have a private dog park at my condo that is rarely busy. Your pets can be crated or roam free in my home. They are also allowed to lounge on my large sectional.
“I can’t say enough good things about Ri! My cats are very shy with new people, but Ri was able to win them over almost immediately. Ri took excellent care of them (as well as my plants) and sent the best pictures/updates after each visit. I’ve never felt better about leaving them with anyone and I have already rebooked for my next trip.”
“Khadija took really good care of my cat. She was always accessible and responded quickly to messages. My cat is not known to be welcoming and he seems very comfortable with Khadija. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Margarita did a great job looking after my two cats. She gave very detailed reports, took lots of pictures and made sure Dust and Spice were played with as well as their basic needs being met.”
“Our very sensitive Siamese was in great spirits when we arrived home, and that has not always been the case with other sitters. Helene gave him extra love and attention and it definitely showed! We will definitely book with Helene again.”
“Madelyn did a great job boarding our 18yo cat. He needed both pill and topical medication, and she handled everything. She also provided pictures and updates throughout the stay”
“Thanks so much for watching our kitty, and keeping her happy and fed! We really appreciated all of the updates and pictures. It's reassuring to know she's looked after so well!”
“Laura took great care of our dog. We couldn't ask for someone to be more communicative and thorough, and we felt well-informed. Our dog was very happy and loved seeing Laura, we couldn't ask for a better sitter!”
“Christina is an absolute gem! From the moment she met my little puppy Chester, I could tell she truly cared. She’s so dedicated and passionate about what she does, and it shows in every interaction. She goes above and beyond, noticing all the little things Chester likes and does, and she works with him so patiently and lovingly. My baby absolutely adores her, and I have such peace of mind knowing he’s in her hands. I can’t recommend Christina enough—she’s not just a pet sitter, she’s someone who genuinely loves and cares for your fur baby as if they were her own.”
About: I have taken care of cats for my entire life. I have raised my first cat from kittenhood, and have cared for my parents cat for the better part of ten years. I have also cared for my parents' dogs, both their elderly doxie and bulldog puppy. I promise to care for your cat or dog with the same level of care I have given to all the pets I have cared for over my entire life. I am available all week round. I run my own business from home; I am happy to visit your cat or dog whenever is best for you and your pet. When you schedule with me to check in on your pet, your pet is my priority. If you have any concerns, I will be sure to address them. If I bring any treats with me, I will ensure that they are vetted by you and your pet. But most of all, I will make sure that your cat or dog is just as happy and healthy when I leave as can be.

Kensington cat parents share their Rover experiences
Caroline was a wonderful caregiver for our cat, Mila. She was caring and attentive to our cat's needs. We loved getting her pictures everyday, they captured Mila's personality perfectly. It was clear from the photos that Mila readily greeted Caroline and felt comfortable with her. Out cat is a messy eater but her feeding area was very clean when we came home. Because of Caroline, we were able to enjoy our vacation worry-free. We definitely would want her take care of Mila next time we are away.
We had an amazing experience with Teffni! She cared for our lab and three cats for 9 days and went above and beyond. She was incredibly attentive, responsive to messages, and kept us updated with lots of great pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pets were clearly well-loved and cared for. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and will absolutely book with Teffni again!
Victoria was so great with my kitties. This was our first time using Rover and she put me at ease. She was patient and caring with our slow to warm fur babies and by the end of the week had multiple play sessions with them. There was a good amount of communication and daily pictures for us to enjoy. She even agreed to check in with our red-eyed tree frogs! Thanks to Victoria (and kids) for giving our cats love while we were on vacation!
