Kathryn has been amazing! So good with my baby and she even brought her a new toy after her old favorite broke! We will miss having her around when we move!

Peyton did a great job dropping off to feed and entertain my 2 cats while I was gone. My place was kept clean and he spent the full 30 minutes with them at each visit.

My little girl was taken care of and got to stretch her legs mid day! Definitely gave me so much peace of mind to have such a kind hearted person care for my best friend.

Grace was absolutely wonderful with my shy boy! He took to her immediately and really enjoyed having her company while I was out of town. Grace has the magic touch with cranky older cats! She also took great care to keep the space clean and tidy. I would absolutely recommend Grace and will definitely hire her again when we travel!

Daniella did such a great job taking care of our cat while we were away for 5 days. She was very quick to respond to any messages and she was flexible and accommodating when I reached out last minute with a couple of extra requests. I’m so happy we found her and I would love to have her come watch our cat again!

Lauryn is absolutely amazing!!!! And I think that’s an understatement!!! First of all, I found her on kind of short notice..and I am so incredibly grateful that she confirmed the booking right away! This was her first time taking care of Charlie and Cleo, and I can tell they fell in love with her (and vice versa) 🥹 we were gone for the longest time away from our babies (around 5 days!), but Lauryn took extra special care of them and was so patient. She was very communicative, and I absolutely loved the photos/videos she sent us! I would 1000% book Lauryn again - and highly, highly recommend her!

About: I'm Kaili and I’m looking for some wagging tails to fill my schedule! I'm a huge dog lover and always have been - with over 15 years experience I'm able to give specialty care to all dogs of varying breeds and personalities. Depending on you and your doggo’s preferences, we can go for long walks or take it easy and lounge in the grass. I'm available for walks, potty-breaks, excercise/play time and/or over night stays! I have experience with overly timid or anxious pups that require patience and gentle attention. As well as extensive care with senior dogs, who also require extra attention in their old age. I’d love to get to know you and your dog and help keep them company in anyway needed! I have a dog of my own and often care for my sister’s dog as well so I’m very well versed and have a schedule down pat. I can be home on the weekends for dog sitting and ample walks around the neighborhood. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my home and live in a neighborhood where I walk my own dog all the time. It’s pretty quiet and low traffic, but there’s also the greenway nearby for a longer / more stimulating environment.

Burgess was great! She was very friendly when we had our meet & greet and was great meeting my cats (it’s hard to find people who are good with cats). Due to one of my cats being on medication, she was great at being consistent with her drop-ins and my boys looked healthy and happy when I got home after being gone for 2 weeks. I’d definitely have Burgess take care of my boys again!

Isabelle did a great job taking care of our dog Draco. Even realized he drank all of his water and took him back out a second time before leaving. Would recommend using Isabelle.

Jenna is amazing. This was our first time using Rover and Jenna gave us the ability to relax and not worry about our "little baby" while we were gone for a week. It's clear she loves cats very much and she was kind and communicative before, during, and after our trip which gave us so much peace of mind. She even sent us tons of great photos and was quick to respond whenever we had questions or requests. We plan to ask her to watch our baby again in the future. Thank you so much Jenna!

LOVED Ariane. She was very responsive and got back with me fast since my girlfriend and I were leaving for a trip in 2 days. She went above and beyond and took the dogs for long walks, showed us their walking route, and sent lots of pictures. The drop in visits were only for 30 minutes but she stayed for around 45 minutes each visit and played with our dogs. We will definitely book her again.

Maria truly went above and beyond—not only did she take great care of my kitties, but she also took the extra step to tidy up the floors before I got back, which I really appreciated. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when I needed to add additional dates, making the whole process stress free. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and attentive.

Christian is an amazing pet sitter. This was the first time I hired a pet sitter. I was worried as my cat Oreo is an anxious cat and if she would be ok but Christian made sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. She seemed super happy and in good spirits when I returned.He sent the cutest pictures and videos and I felt assured that she was good. I would definitely recommend Christian. He went above my expectations!
