“Rucha was great with my cat who is very shy. My cat actually came out of hiding and went over to Rucha which is very unusual. Everything looked great when I got home. Will definitely ask her again!”
“Daniel was great! Our dog barks a lot when initially greeting strangers. He made her feel at ease and soon enough, they were playing fetch together. We will definitely contact him again for drop ins and house sitting of our dogs.”
About: A proud cat mama and dog auntie, I have extensive experience caring for pets in my neighborhood and family. I lead a very active life (run 4-5 days a week, walk daily), and would love your pet’s company! I also work from home, so will be around to give your pet lots of attention. My social work background has given me lots of tools to deal with pets of all personalities and types with compassion. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I also lead a very active life (run 4x a week, walk daily), so will make sure your dog gets lots of exercise. I have a large house and a yard, with lots for a dog to run around. I also have a pet cat, who is extremely friendly and great with other pets.
“Rachel came and did a meet and greet with our dogs. She is extremely communicative and made our dog feel very comfortable. We are looking forward to working together more in the future :)”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful! The critters loved her and she stayed for the entire agreed-upon time! She had sent pictures of her visit and was excellent with communication! I would ask for her help to visit the pups and the cat again.”
“Kirsten is great! Her love and devotion to animals is evident. This was the first time we used an in-house sitter. Our dog was well cared for and relaxed when we arrived home. Kirsten provided updates and photos and lots of love. Thank you Kirsten!”
“Joey spent over a month with my puppy, and was so wonderful in training and caring for him. They developed a great relationship because of the way Joey interacted with him. They were very communicative, flexible, responsible and trustworthy. Highly recommend to all pet owners and anyone needing an extra hand!”

“Graeme was awesome! He followed directions, asked questions if he needed any help, sent pictures of my dogs, which was nice since I missed him. Bear loves when he comes to visit!”
“Nadia is an asset to Rover and our local community! This was our first time booking a service and we were a little nervous leaving our cats for a week for the first time but Nadia is amazing. Communicated well, responded fast and made sure our girls were fed, had water and clean litter boxes. We’ll definitely book Nadia again!!!”
“Kaylee is an excellent pet sitter! She took care of our two cats for 12 days while we were away, and we never had to worry about a thing. She keeps you updated and informed of everything going on with your pets, and cares for them like they were her own. You will love having her take care of your pets and your pets will love her too! Our shy cat, who is always under the bed whenever anyone comes over to our house, warmed up to Kaylee incredibly quickly. We will definitely book her again in the future,”

Nicole is the best sitter I’ve ever encountered-I love her and so do my cats! She really bonds with and pays attention to your pets and your home. She did an incredible job, everything is so clean and thoughtful and the cats had a great time with her. I’m so glad to be working with her-I can travel without any anxiety about their well-being, both physically and emotionally.
Maria was amazing!! She was so kind and patient with my sweet (albeit difficult) cat! My cat has a bunch of health issues, and Maria did a wonderful job navigating them, including giving her meds! She kept in contact with me, sending pictures and updates that really helped put my mind at ease while I was travelling, knowing that my cat was in good hands! She was quick to respond to both my booking request and my questions, and was willing to set up a meet-and-greet with me and my cat, so that I knew she was in good hands. This is the most relaxing vacation I’ve had in years, knowing that my high-needs cat was in good hands. I will never book anybody else!!! She was so kind and patient, and my cat really liked her too! Maria did a wonderful job, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for somebody trustworthy to check in on their pet.
Gianni did a fantastic job with our cat while we were out of town. He was very reliable with his check-ins, updates, and making sure that Baloo had everything that he needed. Even better, our shy cat seemed to love Gianni and enjoy his visits. We definitely recommend him.
Rachel did an outstanding job. She came everyday at the same time as I had requested, gave my cat her medications, brushed her and played with her, and kept the litter box tidy. Receiving daily photos is a real plus; it meant I was not worried about my pet’s care. In sum, Rachel is great and I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
Due to Alex's extensive background in animal care, I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in Alex's care for drop in visits during a 9 day trip! Alex was meticulous with following the rules of Rover and had careful business practices, such as staying on platform for all communication and waiting to accept the booking until after our meet and greet went well. Alex was also meticulous with Mocha's care. I have some very complicated instructions for the care of this finicky senior kitty (special food prep, pills, tooth brushing, recording amount of food consumed) and Alex did a great job following them! As an added bonus, Alex even cleaned the floor around Mocha's food bowl without my asking! Would hire this sitter again. Thank you Alex!
Rossy was great! She took such great care of our dog while my husband and were away for a long weekend, dropping in several times a day. She wrote detailed updates for every drop in and it was clear our dog was in such caring and attentive hands. Not to mention our dog absolutely loved her! I can’t recommend Rossy enough!
