“Aimee is so accommodating and kind!! She was able to help me last minute!! My sassy Pei was not welcoming of her presence, but Aimee was still communicative and sent lots of pics. I felt so bad. (:”
“Phoebe was great and my dog loved her and the visits! Will definitely be calling her again. She took many pictures and had fun with Jackson. I didn’t need to worry about him at all while I was away, 5 stars.”
“Jenny was great! Our cats were struggling with hairballs for a bit but she was super attentive and communicative. Would recommend and have her sit our girls again.”
“Maria took wonderful care of my cats. She was very flexible with her availability as I was waiting for a family member to be released from the hospital. I am thankful for her help.”
“Mya was wonderful in every way. She was highly communicative with me and sent lots of pictures and videos. She was also great with my terrified-of-everyone cat. I couldn’t have found a better sitter for my kitty while I was gone. I hope that if I need to travel again, she is available. I wish I could give more stars 😄”
“Riley was fantastic and will definitely keep her on speed dial for the future! Very communicative and provided tons of pictures during her visit, while keeping my home neat and clean! It was very reassuring having her stopping by. Thank you Riley!!”
“Colleen and Sean were excellent catsitters! They were very punctual and handled our tricky lock well. We came home to two happy cats and hope they can watch them again!”
“Provided great care for our border collie while we were away!”
“Josie took care of our two cats Darcy and Noodle, and we only have good things to say. She gave them all the attention, pets, and brushes they could want.”
“Our cat, Coco, is a gentle sweetheart to us but a growling/hissing opponent to pet sitters (it's like Jekyll and Hyde)! Sammi was great, even after being lunged at a few times, and spent the week doing her best to build trust with Coco. It was above and beyond our other experiences with sitters. My wife and I really admired her effort and communication and would recommend her services!”
“Michaela did a week of drop ins with our pup, Bastille! She was very communicative, leaving us funny updates after every walk and many photos and videos! Michaela was always on time and our dog clearly loved her. We ran into Michaela at the park after she started doing our mid day walks and Bastille ran right for her! We will definitely be reaching out to Michaela again!”
“Taylor was a huge help checking in on my cat Emmy while I was away for the long weekend! From the jump, Taylor was super thorough in her questions and making sure she was prepared to check in on Emmy, and when it came to the actual checks, she did a great job entertaining Emmy and taking care of her! I would absolutely have Taylor look after Emmy again in the future!!”
“It was our first time using Rover and using a sitter/walker for our puppy and it was great! I had a busy 2 days and I was unable to be home all day so Jon came twice each day and walked, fed, and played with my pup for an hour each visit. He maximized the time he had and followed any rules I had (due to my pup being so young he can’t explore as much just yet ). I had some anxiety about leaving my puppy for the first time since he’s only 14 weeks old but Jon made it easy. Highly recommend!!”
“Aislyn was wonderful with our puppy Scout. She was super responsive, on-time, and provided great pictures and write-ups of our visit. That was especially important to us as Scout is our first puppy and we were nervous about leaving her home alone for the first time. Scout always looked so happy in the pictures and when we came home from work!”
“Daniel did great with our shy and cautious dog. He warmed up to him surprisingly quick, which we took as a great sign. Daniel left the home clean and did everything as instructed. His daily drop-in notes were informative and thorough. We would definitely book him again in the future.”
“Amy did a great job taking care of my mom’s cat. She came up with ways to help make the cat feel comfortable and at ease since the cat is normally very scared of strangers. She took the initiate and was able to get the cat to play with her for a little bit, which we really appreciate. My mom also enjoyed reading the daily updates and pictures that Amy sent. I will definitely hire Amy again the next time my mom needs help with her cat.”
About: I grew up with pets being part of the family. Over the years I have loved a dachshund, whippet and golden retriever. As well as three cute kitties! I started pet sitting around the age of 10 and have loved caring for each animal I’ve met! I hope to spend quality time with your pet whether it be a long walk or play time! I just graduated high school and am on summer break before I start college in the fall! I am attending a phlebotomy program in July for a few hours each morning but am free in the afternoons and evenings. I want your pets to feel at home when I am around. I plan to offer them what i do my own pets, unconditional love and care.
“Rebecca has been an awesome cat sitter for us. She’s watched our cats several times, for just a few days up to a few weeks at a time. I always feel good knowing she’s checking in on them while we’re gone, and she always sends us updates and pictures. Would highly recommend her!”
“Sophia was so helpful and took care of our dog wonderfully. Guli was very happy and enjoyed Sophia's drop in visits which included walks and potty breaks. Sophia was communicative, thoughtful, reliable and loving towards our dog. Thank you, Sophia! 🙏👌👍😊”
“Lexy and Robert were super awesome caring for my sweet baby Nova. They were very responsive and always made me feel like she was in good hands. My go-to in Clarendon!”

Tegan L.
“Tegan has looked after my dog Leo and my four cats all at once, she really handles this huge load with overwhelming grace! She is definitely my go to sitter just because she knows animals on a level that no one else can replicate. For example, she taught my dog Leo how to paw even in his old ages. But other than that, she is super communicative and she always gives her 110% whenever I need her. Tegan is a lovely woman.”

Leeway pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amazing! Shannon totally understands cats. Our kitty is very shy and not super friendly to people she doesn’t know. Shannon was so understanding of her temperament and needs and did an excellent job caring for her. Would recommend 110%.
Evelyn was a wonderful pet sitter. She took great care of my cat, and went above and beyond in the care she provided and her communication.
Monica is communicative and caring. She took incredible care of our cat. He adored having her care and company while we were away!
Michael is a wonderful pet sitter. He was attentive and sent updates about our kitties. Will definitely book again! Thank you Michael!
5 stars is simply not enough!! Yiting goes ABOVE and beyond to take care of my cat. I seriously cannot recommend her more! I feel so much better when I travel knowing she is taking such great care of my cat.
I always know my pets are in good hands with Toshiko! Very reliable, great communication, and flexible with scheduling. We couldn't ask for better!
Kelly provides great reliable and friendly service. I’m a repeat customer and will definitely reach out to her in the future.
Simone D is the best with my two large energetic pups!! She takes amazing care and documents everything. I try to book her whenever I can because my pups adore her and I never have to worry about them.
Shivani has been so great with our cat! She has been great at communicating and sending pics. It’s good to know he’s in safe hands!
Juliette did an amazing job watching my 2 rabbits. I had accidentally typed in the wrong address for my apartment, and she made a second trip back out to my place the same day once I had fixed the mistake. Her flexibility and dedication really took a lot of stress off me while I was traveling because I knew my pets were in good hands
Taylor did a fantastic job with our two cats. Our little five yr old Fee is EXTREMELY shy and over the course of two days, Taylor was able to get Fee to come out of hiding for a visit. This is the first time ever tgat she has done this. Taylor seems to know just the right balance of her own behavior in cleaning the litter and feeding that would allow Fee to be comfortable. Plus Taylor played wonderfully with our other people friendly cat, Kira. Super job Taylor! Thanks so much!
Pamela took great care of our active Aussie! She took care of our girl on a hot day and was very mindful of the heat. Pamela provided great updates and took lots of cute photos. We will definitely book her again!
Super helpful & proactive, took notes during our initial meeting, tried hard to befriend our shy kitty.
Erica did a great job watching my cat. She followed my cat’s care instructions perfectly and took notes during our meet and greet for anything particular, which I really appreciated. She also captured really great pictures. I definitely recommend her services!
Josie took care of our two cats Darcy and Noodle, and we only have good things to say. She gave them all the attention, pets, and brushes they could want.
