“Katey provided great care for our cat while we were away for the holidays. She cuddled and played with him to his heart’s content. She was on time every day and sent many pictures and updates to ease our minds. Definitely recommend!”

“Madeleine really helped me relax on my trip knowing that my senior cat was doing well. She sent photos and kept me updated, and was incredibly easy to work with.”

“Julia was great at caring for our pups. She did an hour long drop in and made sure they had some time outside and our pup was not in his kennel while my wife was working. Thank you for taking care of them and helping us out.”

“Sera did a wonderful job watching my cat! She was on time, communicative, and sent super detailed visit cards that kept me at ease while I was out of town. She followed my instructions and also added some extras like hiding treats for enrichment and brushing that were much appreciated!”

“Trevor has watched our cats, Mira and Wren, twice and he’s been fantastic every time. He’s super responsive with messages, sends adorable photo updates, and takes the time to play with them and keep them comfortable. Thank you so much Trevor!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. I’m attentive, patient, and prioritize safety, routine, and making sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. As a med student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my classes around pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week. I follow all care instructions carefully and prioritize safety in both my home and clients’ homes. I’m respectful, attentive, and ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
“I swear Emmy was Misty's mom in her past life - that is how much she loves her and is comfortable around her- which as an owner, is the best feeling. Emmy has watched Misty for 3 long trips (7+days) and a few other nights and we are always at ease during our time away because of her. She sends pictures, gives us updates if we ask, is comfortable taking her both on and off leash, has given her medications when required, and has had play dates with other friends & dogs, too. Our dog is so comfortable with her that she's always snuggled up to her and even perks up when we say Emmy is coming. Emmy is always our go-to when she is available !”

“Julia was great with my cat Frankie who usually dislikes everyone but me, which made the 10 days I was away so much less stressful! Julia sent daily updates and photos and I was so happy to see how well Frankie was doing with her. I definitely look forward to booking with Julia again in the future.”

“Jesika is great! I can always trust her to be kind to my pets, give them attention and take good care of them! She is mature, responsible and caring. Highly recommended!”
“Yiran had great communication, was easy to meet up, and had good questions to get all the food, treat, and walk details correct. She had no problems walking our dog, appreciated the photos and updates!”

About: Enjoy your vacation with the peace of mind you deserve, knowing your pet is in the best hands. While some sitters provide the basics, I give your pet the care, attention, and love they’d get from family. I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for a wide range: cats, dogs, rabbits, iguanas, rats, and ferrets. I’ve pet-sat extensively for friends, family, coworkers, and now a growing number of delighted Rover clients. As a cat mom myself (raised mine from a kitten!), I deeply understand how hard it is to leave your pet behind. That’s why I go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally at ease while you're away. You’ll get daily updates, lots of photos, and care that’s as close to home as possible. Whether it’s trail walks, fetch marathons, snuggles in bed, or sticking to every detail of their routine, I treat your pet like family. Housesitting Your home and pets are in safe, respectful hands. I’ll follow your instructions closely and leave your home cleaner than I found it. Boarding Boarding is my preferred option, and I offer it at a lower rate. My apartment is a sunny, open-concept space on the first floor where dogs have access to the entire home. There is plenty of room to lounge on the couch or bask in the sun. My building also includes a private park, perfect for playtime right outside the door. I usually only accept one dog at a time, meaning your dog will have my complete focus! Come tour during the meet & greet! I do have a cat. While I can separate her, I ask that any boarding dogs are calm and experienced around cats. Extras If your dog enjoys car rides, let me know. I’d love to take them on trails when I can. My schedule fluctuates day to day, so check in whether we'll be a match! Generally, your pet needs to be comfortable with being left for a regular 8-hour work day, but not a moment more. I will be rushing home to take them on a long walk and cuddle up on the couch. I will follow all your routines, ensuring the pet has consistent and predictable care. I also love sending you photos and anecdotes about their day. I want you to rest assured that I will learn the ins and outs of your pet and their care and step up to the plate!
“Samantha took are of my two babies while I was away for the weekend, one of which needed daily ear drops. She treated them as if they were her own. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her services in the future!”
“Nishat was amazing and we will certainly use her again in the future! Very attentive and caring to our kitties and followed all of the instructions. Thank you :)”

“Viva is so attentive and dedicated to our dog when she comes to walk her! We always get the best photos and reports back from Viva after her visits. She asks about our training goals to keep things consistent for our dog! Highly recommend!”

“Justine watched our two cats while we were away for Thanksgiving. She was very responsive and updated us with pictures and a note after each visit. We really appreciated her flexibility and attentiveness over the holiday!”

About: I can care for single or multi-pet households. I've dog and cat sat for over 10 years. I started dog and cat sitting for friends and neighbors during college and graduate school. I can provide care to senior cats, and some senior dogs. I've owned animals for my entire life. I currently own two wonderful cats (one adult, one teenager) , and grew up with pets, including a dog, a cat, a hamster, and a guinea pig. I am available all days of the week for drop in visits and walks. I can accept some house-sitting and overnight stays during the week/weekend. I would care for your pet with the utmost love and respect, as well as treat your home with respect. It takes a lot of trust to invite someone in to care for your beloved pets and I would never want to violate that trust. I would follow all instructions and be clear on communication/vet/health/feeding information.

“Marna is super communicative and always willing to go above and beyond. She was my first Rover experience and could not be happier with her professionalism. I have and will continue to rebook her!”

Libbytown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Muriel is awesome! Between thorough daily updates and being able to come home to two very happy and healthy cats, we will absolutely work with Muriel again. Our cats are generally timid, but seemed to warm up quickly and love spending their time with Muriel during her check-ins. I think we've found our new go-to sitter! Thank you, Muriel!

Hannah was such a sweet babysitter for our cats. She was on time to do a meet and greet the week before, and let us add on extra days to accommodate our travel. She took lots of pictures of our cats and seemed like she played with them a bit during her visits. I highly recommend her service and will book with her again!

Angela was an amazing sitter for our elderly cat! Angela took care of all of Bearclaw's food/litter/medicine, and then spent quality time keeping her company with snuggles and pets during what was, I'm sure, a challenging week for our baby. Angela really was sensitive to our worries about leaving her and was so patient and supportive. We received insightful notes and fun photos each day, and this helped us feel confident about the well-being of Bearclaw. Thank you so much, Angela! We really appreciate you!
