“Chloe took great care of our senior pups! She was very communicative and sent lots of photos. She was also able to squeeze us in at the last minute when other sitter plans had fallen through. Would definitely rebook!!!”

“Stephanie was wonderful. She came by twice before we left to make sure the dogs were comfortable. Was very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.”

About: I have always had a strong passion for animals and have taken every opportunity to care for and support them. Over the years, I have provided reliable dog and cat sitting services, working with a variety of breeds and sizes. Growing up in a home that always included pets has given me a deep appreciation for animals and a natural ability to care for them with patience, attention, and love. I would love the opportunity to provide your furry companion with the love, care, and happiness they deserve. I have a very flexible schedule and am currently available at a variety of times. With clear communication regarding dates and times needed, I will be able to promptly confirm my availability and ensure I can meet your scheduling needs. Every animal is unique, and I tailor care routines to best fit each pet’s individual needs and schedule. I believe clear communication is key to creating the perfect care plan for your furry companion. I always prioritize dedicated playtime and, depending on the pet, provide walks and outdoor time to keep them happy and active. I am highly flexible and committed to meeting the specific needs of every animal in my care.

“This was our second time using Ken. He is so great and attentive with Chewy and tolerates all of our questions about how she’s doing which is very much appreciated. He is very understanding of her anxiety and general weirdness. It is such a blessing to be able to confidently leave her in his care and not have to be concerned about a single thing.”

“Carley was amazing! I highly recommend her! She was professional, on time, and checked in on my dogs multiple times a day. Carley checked in with me multiple times a day and sent me multiple photos. I felt very comfortable knowing she was taking such good care of my boys. I will definitely book her again!”

“First time using a sitter for our kitties and Emily did not disappoint… We felt comfortable choosing Emily given her reviews and number of repeat customers, and we are happy to add our names to that list… Thank you, Emily and we will be sure to call upon your services again!”

“Allison was great. She provided updates with photos and our pups were obviously comfortable with her. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again when needed.”

About: Hi there, and thanks for checking out my profile! I’ve been on Rover for about a year and primarily take on housesitting roles or keep pets in my home, but I also have long term walking clients. I’m here because I genuinely love animals and have years of accumulated animal experience that really lends itself well to creating happy clients. I've had pets of all shapes and sizes since the 7th grade when I turned my dog into my science fair project (The Effect of Rewards on Dog Training). Since then, I've done obedience classes with one of my pups, worked with Australian Shepherd and Doberman rescue as a transporter and foster mom, and walked many miles with some cute pooches. I'm currently mom to one male cat, an Holland Lop, and one very typical male Golden Retriever. OH--and a seven year old human boy! I’m experienced in difficult animal behaviors such as separation anxiety and mild aggression towards other animals, potty training, medical emergencies (I am NOT clinically trained, but I’ve been through a lot of vet appointments between my pets and the rescues), and giving medication. I’m also a farmer and floral designer by trade, so I might covertly care for your houseplants as well. My work schedule is flexible, and I often work from home. I determine my own work schedule, so I can accommodate pet care most days and times. I’m very careful about not overcommitting myself, particularly when it comes to taking responsibility for other people’s pets. I offer in-home care for cat- and kid-friendly pups who get along well with other animals. Ollie the Golden Retriever will be sure to keep your dog well-entertained. He is 5 years old and still very "puppy," but ultimately, he’s a chill Golden to his core. The cat loves Ollie but are typically unimpressed by all other creatures. The rabbit rules the house.

“My animals were very well cared for. Lots of communication and pictures”

“Great sitter. Will definitely use again.”

“Alina took such good care of our pets and our home! We received regular updates and came home to happy animals and a clean house. I would definitely recommend her and book her again!”

About: Animals are special creatures who deserve special care and love. I've cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits since I was old enough to talk. Specifically, I've been hired by many friends, family, and friends of friends to pet sit as well as house sit! I am a kind and strong person who has most experience caring for dogs in all walks of life, including administering medication and special care to a large and elderly dog with blindness and cervical spondylomyelopathy (Wobbler Syndrome). I myself have 3 cat children (an inseparable brother-sister combo named Biscuits and Gravy, and an elderly cat named Feeny). I most enjoy caring for animals in their own homes/spaces where they can feel comfortable and keep their known routines. I have an intuitive approach to pets and a deep sense of integrity and honesty. I consider myself lucky to interact with as many beautiful pet children as I can! I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment, so I am available for daytime, nighttime, weekends, as well as longer-term sitting, if required. I offer care in your own home to ensure your pet feels safe and has as little of break in routine as possible without their owners. I have the utmost integrity and honesty. I am a strong, astute, sensitive, and confident person who will care for your pet as my own.

“We hired Lizzy to house sit for Cola last minute and we couldn’t be happier with her service. She responded very quickly and made us feel confident in leaving our home and pup in her care. Lizzy sent us frequent updates and left our home in better shape than when we left! Cola loved her, too. We will be hiring whenever possible in the future.”

“Sally is amazing with our pups! So constantly communicates how their day is going and sends the best pictures. I feel so at ease leaving them in her care!”

About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have two cats. In college I worked on a farm and cared for cattle, chickens, goats, pigs, and alpaca. I am currently a zoo keeper and have been in the field for three years. I have cared for reptiles, small mammals, some birds, and larger hoof stock. I have experience giving medications, preparing special diets, training, and observing animal health/behavior. I have worked with young and senior animals. I currently have Sunday and Monday off so anytime of days work then. Then I work 8-5 Tuesday through Saturday. I can stop by before or after work. I am great at following instructions. When going into your home or staying the night I will provide the best care I can. I will make sure to respect your home and your pets!

“Alyssa was wonderful! She responded quickly to all messages sent to her. She took excellent care of our home and our pets while we were away. I would highly recommend her!”

Karen L.

“Chauncey was absolutely amazing! She did an excellent job of communicating and sending us pictures everyday! Our dog has pretty bad separation anxiety so when we got the first picture on the day we left, and saw Teddy actually eating her food!!!…I knew she was in great hands and I didn’t have worry while on vacation! Will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have many years of experience taking care of every different kind of animal. I’m here to take your dog on walks, to play, feed your pet if you’re gone, care for them overnight, at your place or mine! I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, and all of your smaller pets as well. I’m extremely flexible to care for your pet during the day for walks, feeding, play time, as well as overnight while you’re gone! I currently do not have any pets in my home, making it a safe environment for all of yours! I enjoy getting to spend time with your best friends and will treat them with the same love and care as if they’re my own.

“This is the second time Tyler helps us take care of our Brutus and Klooney. He keeps up posted with photos each day to give us peace of mind as we’re away.”

“What a godsend! We were hesitant to take a trip as our Benji has high anxiety but Meghann was an absolute gift! She took such great care of our pup and our home. She provided outstanding communication with updates and pictures that made our time away so much more relaxing. We couldn’t believe how Benji warmed up to her. She’s a whisperer! Our home was tidy and clean and she even came back and stayed with our Boy since our return was delayed. Five stars are not enough…. We will definitely book her again and again.”
