“Laura was wonderful! I booked last minute and she was so helpful! As this being my first time using Rover I will be booking again & hopefully with Laura! Zeus enjoyed his time with her as well!”
“We have had Chelsea in our lives for over a year. She has been with us for our fostering and a recent adoption of another kitty. We have a total of 6 pets (1 dog and 5 kitties) she looks after when we are on vacation. During the week, she comes over 3 times a week to walk our lab. She is definitely an adopted member of our family. Our lab goes flying through the house when she hears the front door unlock and several of our cats will even come running. Everyone in our house loves Chelsea. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her not only as a sitter, but as a person. You will not be disappointed with the care and love she gives your furbabies.”
“Kayla took Luna on a lovely walk while I was gone for the day! Luna loved her walk and was definitely tired for the rest of the day. Kayla was very communicative and even arrived early after checking it was okay to do so!”
“Saved me for a last minute week long need of walking. She kindly returned back to my home to let Alice out to pee a second time due to scheduling issues. Alice is always happy when I come home after her walks.”
“Samantha is amazing!!! She is responsive and great with Carter on walks. He comes home tired and happy!!! I have to say that my boy really looks forward to the walks with his new bestie. Samantha, I appreciate you!!”
“Kasondra was great with our pups. She was very understanding with all our requests and made us feel comfortable having her take care of them. We’ll definitely be using her again.”
About: I’ve helped take care of pets since I was little and I’ve been trusted to house sit before multiple times. Family and friends have relied on me to help when I can and I’ve always been able to make it work around my schedule! I’ve always been told I’m very responsible and good with animals, if I am given the opportunity I would take great care of your furry friends and home! I’m a current student working part time, but for now while I’m on summer break I have almost complete availability! I have a dog and a cat, so caring for my family pets is a huge part of my daily life. I have a fenced in yard perfect for furry friends to roam around in! My house isn’t huge, so I always know where the animals are and it’s easy to pay attention to their needs. I’m a pretty active person, so walks and play time are an exciting and fun part of pet care! I also have a complete understanding of the other responsibilities that come with having pets.
“Laurie is an excellent person with whom to entrust your dog. She has a confident yet easy disposition that is comforting. She consistently communicated all I wanted to know regarding her time with my dog. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals for over 10 years. I love working with animals, specifically learning how I can take the best care of them. It makes me happy to keep pets and the environment as healthy as possible.💚😁 I have a ginormous yard where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and play around. I am usually visit pets 2-3 times a day, anytime during the day and possibly available for over night stays. If there is anything else you or your pet needs, just ask!! I have a very large yard with no fence. I can keep dogs on a leash if needed. There’s plenty of space to run and play.
About: No dog too big or small to handle. Being around animals for me is therapeutic so I am getting more in return! Skilled with cats and dogs since a young age and hope to meet your bundle of joy soon! Very flexible as I work from home and currently pet sitting for a few friends full-time. Available most all days of the week and holidays. I ensure the well-being of pets by following established routines for feeding, exercise, and play. I maintain a clean and safe environment, administer medications as needed, and provide ample affection. Communication with pet owners is key to understanding specific needs and addressing any concerns promptly.
“Sarah was wonderful with our dogs! She took them for a long walk which they love. Oliver and Oreo really liked Sarah also. She was very patient and loving toward the dogs! Sarah has a great personality which is very much suited to dog walking/care!! Thank you, Sarah!”
About: When I was 12 I started walking dogs for my neighbors and the elderly people around my neighborhood, I absolutely love dogs especially big ones! My family always had so many dogs growing up, so I feel very comfortable around pretty much any dog, I feel comfortable bathing and walking and playing any size or type of dog! I currently work in the morning during the week, I usually get off at 2:00pm or earlier. I am free almost every weekend, and any weekday after 2:00pm at the latest I currently do not have any dogs, but I do have three cats and other types of small pets and lizards. When I am watching over your fur baby I will treat them as my own, and give them a fun time with lots of play and attention, while still following the parents requests. This is the first time I’ve lived in a home without a dog so I would love to be able to spend some time with your fur baby!
About: My fiance Kevin and I have been doing Rover on and off since 2019 and we wanted to get back to taking care of animals until he starts residency in July! We have both grown up with dogs and cats our whole lives and we currently have two cats, Sesame and Tahini. I have worked in dog shelters and together we have cared for animals of all ages and sizes. I also have experience taking care of certain medical needs like giving medications or inhalers. We're looking forward to making friends with your pets!! Since Kevin is mostly on vacation until he graduates and I work from home, we will be available for a large chunk of time on most days of the week! We have been on Rover for the last 5 years, so we have no trouble tailoring our services to meet your specific needs for your pet.
About: I have been around animals my entire life. I currently have two tabby cats that I love and adore. I grew up with dogs and my parents still have 3 dogs at home. I have pet sat for many friends and neighbors! I’m currently a full time student, but the way my schedule is set up I have frequent breaks throughout the day. Weekends are usually available with notice. I always make sure to get a thorough debrief from the owner about their pets needs! Feeding, bathroom breaks, walks, or even just spending some quality time with your pet- I’m your gal!

Lina D.
“Lina is a kind, caring, and gentle animal lover who listens to not only the owners but also to the cat/dog. She cares deeply about what the needs of the pet are as well as finding a gentle balance of love and structure. After hiring Lina I was able to relax in knowing that my dear cat and dog would be loved and attended to in their own way. One needed more attention and a gentle touch while the other exercise and play. She was able to meet each of their needs while keeping in good contact with me. I highly recommend her to care for cats and dogs.”
Jenna L.
“Jenna is a great pet parent herself and is an animal lover in general. She cares for every animal that she meets and believes that the human-animal bond is very important. I would trust her with my own pets at any time.”
