Karleigh was great! Lolah finally warmed up to her, and sometimes cats act weird around strangers, but Karleigh was great at breaking the ice! Really appreciate you Karleigh! Hope to have you over again! Thanks!!

Sarah was an excellent sitter for my two cats! One was having some issues and vomiting every day and Sarah took care of everything, which really helped ease my mind while away. She provided clearly communication with every visit and I highly recommend her! I look forward to booking with Sarah for all of my fur children needs moving forward! 😊

I couldn’t had pick a better cat sitter than Carla. My cat is getting old and does have separation anxiety when we leave to travel. My baby did so well, he responded to Carlas attention and tlc. He looked happy and ready for my cuddles.🥰 Thanks Carla

About: Hello! I've had dogs all my life and worked as part of a rescue group for part of that time. I love dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them. I can take them for walks, give them lots of attention and if they take any medication, I have experience with that as well. I'm good with any size dog since I've had a lot of different ones from Cocker Spaniels to Irish Wolfhounds. I don't have any "official" recommendations but I have pet sitted for friends of my family a time or two. I'm also good with multiple dogs, having grown up around 6-12 in my house at any given time, along with multiple cats. I would love to be able to pet sit for you! I currently work from home, so I am able to be flexible when it comes to taking care of your furry family members, rain or shine! I can do doggy daycare in my house if your furry friend gets along with mine, but also more than happy to take care of your pets in your home, whether taking them out for a walk, feeding them, or letting them out into the yard.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I used to take care of farm animals every summer - the goats and barn cats were always my favorite. When I got to college, I pursued a degree in Animal Science and worked as a vet assistant & receptionist for 4 years while also volunteering at an animal shelter. I have cared for a variety of pets of different ages, temperaments, and health statuses and know how to adapt for their needs. I have made a career pivot away from veterinary medicine about 2 years ago, and I sincerely miss making new furry friends, so I would love to get to know yours! I currently work completely remote and have a flexible work schedule that would allow me to drop in to give your pet some love and exercise during the weekdays and weekends. My priority is the health and happiness of your pet, and a respect for your home. I understand it can be stressful for our pets to meet and adapt to new people, so I will do my best to make them feel safe and cared for. I will also ensure to leave your home as I found it and clean up after myself and your fur babies.

Gina is absolutely the best and I am so fortunate to have her look after my kitties. She goes out of her way to even look after our outdoor kitty. I do not have to worry about anything when Gina is taking care of them. I would recommend Gina to anyone who is looking for a sitter for their pets.

We were very satisfied with our first boarding experience. Smokey acclimated the sitter much faster than anticipated. He enjoyed his stay and bonded with the sitter in less than one week. We will definitely use her services again when we travel. This was a long trip (17 days) during the 2025 holiday season.

Grace responded quickly to my request and was patient with me while I had a crazy day when my normal sitters were not available! She followed all the instructions perfectly after a quick phone call and I could tell my kitty was happy with how quiet he was when I got home! Truly appreciative of sitters like Grace who can make themselves available in times like this and would definitely use her again! Dusty would be happy to see you :)

About: I’ve taken care of many family pets ranging from dogs to cats to snakes. Most dogs and cats being seniors and one cat having three legs. For the senior pets, I played with them to get them a little active every once in a while. As for the snakes, I kept a close eye on them as they slithered around, made sure they’re enclosure was clean and even helped with their skin shedding process by gently holding their tail as they continued to slither forward. I mostly have a free schedule, so I wanted to use my free time to relieve pet parents and assist them with their duties. I know looking after high energy or senior/special needs pets can be difficult, and I want to lend my hand to help ease the work load if you’re a new pet parent and learn how to take care of your furry companion to ease your worry if you’re a seasoned pet parent I’ve diligently monitored my family pets to secure their safety. I have experience looking after very young and elderly animals. With puppies they require additional attention so I would have mats lined around their cages so the floors wouldn’t get sticky. For the elderly cats and dogs I would have alarms set for the time they needed their medication.

Ms. Samantha is the best! She provided her services in the clutch of time and also got along with my 2 male cats in a jiff! She even convinced them to start using the cat tree that I bought for them months ago. I will definitely request her services any time I go out of town. P.s. this was my first time using Rover. 10/10 would recommend

About: I am an animal lover and have had various types of animal companions throughout my lifetime. I have a quiet understanding with most animals that I come across and enjoy their company. I have sat for many of my friends and family and am the go to person when someone needs to go out and about but cannot take their pet family members along. New members get 20% when you use the code below to book with me! FARISM27089, https://www.rover.com/sit/farism10342 I am currently focusing on dog sitting and have dedicate my time to being available to meet as many fur babies as I can in the next couple months. I have a room dedicated to pet care which has a greenhouse feel with plants but is fully enclosed in the home. It has a doggy door which leads out to our fully fenced back yard and large dog run with a insulated dog house inside. I also have a wireless camera on the areas which allow me to make sure that everyone is ok at all times. Please note that I no longer accept large breed dogs at this time aside from past clients. I am currently focusing my time on pet sitting. I am always also checking in via webcam on the pups wherever I am. Dog personalities are so amazing and fun to see. I have a double fenced yard to keep your pets safe. Lots of open dog crates and bedding for snoozing. A dog door that allows them some freedom and a large dedicated outdoor dog area for doggie playtime. They also always have access to fresh cool water.
