“Leila was wonderful with my two kittens! They’re usually pretty shy but warmed right up to her on her first drop-in. She sent pictures/updates each day and took great care of them. I would recommend Leila to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy petsitter.”


“Would absolutely recommend Daniela!! Really appreciated her looking after the boss on such short notice. She was very responsive, and judging by the pictures she shared with me, the boss was happy with her too.”


“Huge thanks to Nicholas for taking great care of my 18-year-old cat while I was out of town for a few days! He was super responsive, provided detailed feedback and plenty of photos.”


“Jenna was so kind & professional while caring for my senior cat & my partner's very anxious dog. Feeding, walks, & medication all were completed on time & the updates were all informative & her photos were delightful! I would book Jenna again in a heartbeat.”


About: I love dogs and my girl Stella loves to make friends. Due to her play style Stella does best with small to medium dogs who also like to play. If your pup isn't into playing, we can always crate and rotate so everyone has a good experience. In addition to Stella, I have fostered more than 30 dogs over the past 8 years. I am extremely responsible and understand that our pets are family and I would treat them as such. I work from home full time so I'll be able to spend a lot of time with you pet and make sure they get plenty of exercise. I live near several walking paths so despite living in an apartment you pet will be able to get out for lots of enrichment walks. I have a private patio where they will be able sun bathe if they like that too!

“Carol was amazing with my Peanut!! She made her comfortable and engaged with her (although Peanut can be a bit feisty) I’m very particular about who watches her and will absolutely book with Carol next time!”


“Sarah was great with Layla! She was very responsive and was able to facetime last minute. She was timely and a great communicator. Will definetely reach out again in the future! Thanks Sarah!”


“Thomas was extremely communicative, helpful, and sent plenty of pictures while watching our cat Chance! His writeup was very detailed, and he even washed out Chance's dirty food bowl (not something we asked for, but we do really appreciate it!). Probably the most communicative and helpful sitter on Rover we have used.”


“This is our second time booking with Caris and we are so thankful for the care and attention paid to our kitties. When a work schedule change meant our vacation could be extended, Caris was willing to extend the original booking by a few days, which was so appreciated. We look forward to working with Caris again soon (and my kitties look forward to it most of all!)”


“Ethan was communicative, on time, and patient with my anxious dog. He did a great job of getting my dog comfortable and I am looking forward to booking with him in the future!”

About: I’ve gained ample experience taking care of my two year old and five month goldendoodles since they were six week old.

About: Hi my name is Henry! Admirer of all breeds! I have had a pet from a young age so you can say I've grown up with pets all my life. About me currently self employed(Rover) part time retail work from time to time but my passion is personal training and barbering. In my living space I have more than enough room to run around and play. Can't forget about those lounging spots under natural sunlight. About my Boston terrier Mojo: Mojo is eleven years old. Most friendliest over-energetic pup there is! Humans, other dogs, bunnies, birds, he's a fan of all!

Medication can be given or applied.
