“Joanna did a great job checking in on my kitty Peaches. She reliably showed up as promised, communicated well, shared pictures and my cat loved her. She was good at telling with Peaches was in the mood to play or in the mood to cuddle and gave her all the love she craved. I will definitely have Joanna look in on Peaches again in the future. Highly recommend.”

“Paige was very prompt and communication was great. My shy cat even sat on her lap for pets, so she definitely is the right fit for us. The dogs did well too. We will have her back.”

“Jacqueline did a great job with our puppy! She sent photos, fed him, took him out potty and played with him! I'd definitely recommend her and will be asking her to watch our pup again soon!”

“I had a great experience with Lindsey. She setup a time to meet with me and my cat to talk through his needs and be introduced. She kept me informed while I was away with pictures and updates about my cat, which made me feel much better about leaving my pet alone.”

“Sy was such a pleasure and did a wonderful job dropping in to visit my two cats for a week. She was thoughtful, easy to communicate with, and flexible. I can tell she and Lucas have a real love for animals and they love them too. Even my shy cat, Franny, warmed up to them quickly. I received thorough updates and lots of pictures that made me feel very comfortable leaving them knowing they were in good hands.”

“Hannah was absolutely fantastic with our pups over the weekend! She did great with administering oral medication to our senior dog and arrived on time and stayed the full length of the visit for every visit. Our dogs love her and we can’t wait to book with her next time!”

“Tonka Loves Natalie and gets so excited when she comes over. They have a special connection. Thank you so much for watching Tonda. So much appreciated. have good day.”

“Sierra did a great job of showing up on time and caring for my kitty. I was really comfortable with her during our meet and greet, Peepers was too so I knew it would be a good fit. I will definitely look for Sierra’s availability next time I need to travel. Thanks!”

“Danielle was attentive, always in contact, and did her due diligence in dealing with my reactive dog. I could not have asked for a better sitter while I was gone for family reasons. If she’d be willing I’d definitely book her again!”

“I had to travel for work last minute and Jennifer helped me so much. She checked on my two cats and a dog twice a day while I was gone with pictures and she even brought in my mail. Thank you Jennifer!”


“Andrea was great. She arranged meetings free of charge to see if everything was a good fit before we committed. She often sent pictures to us to let us know our puppy was well taken care of. She also gave us many tips that were well appreciated as first-time puppy owners. Your pooch will be in great hands if you go with Andrea.”

“Meredith was incredibly thoughtful and reliable! I was so thankful for the detailed daily updates when I was gone for the week, and my cat seemed to truly love her!”

“I was very pleased with Stephanie's care of Jazzy. I appreciated the photos and notes she sent me. She also respected and took care of my home. I will call upon her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone wanting care for their pet.”

About: I’ve had different breeds of both cats and dogs throughout my entire childhood so I understand the responsibilities needed to properly take care of a variety of pets. My parents have also been on Rover for a couple of years and I alway love helping them out! This also means I understand the apps processes and how to navigate it. I’m a college student at Macalester college, so right now I’m on summer break. I am flexible with owners schedules and willing to driving all around the metro for visits or at home stays! I can do whatever the owner feels is necessary for their pet. Whether it’s putting pets into crates, or active play, or if meals need to be more hands on, I feel comfortable caring for them in pretty much any situation. I don’t have much experience caring for dogs with special needs, so some animals who need that type of assistance might be out of the realm of care I can provide.
“Rob did an excellent job taking care of our cat, who can be difficult and standoffish. He was responsive to her needs and followed our directions well, even suggesting slight adjustments to facilitate a better experience for all. We recommend him wholeheartedly!”

Danielle was great! More importantly, our 4 year old (Yuji) enjoyed her company while we were away. It’s always great to find sitters who love cats and seek out opportunities to kitty-sit! Our instructions were followed, and we were able to relax a bit while knowing that he was very well taken care of. Would recommend 100%!

Samantha did an amazing job caring for my dog while I was away on a day trip up north during labor day weekend. She was able to meet Luchito ahead of time and asked thoughtful questions about his routine and needs. During the visit, she kept me updated and shared photos from their walk. It was reassuring knowing my dog was being so well cared for. I would definitely recommend her!

Kelsey was fantastic! Ollie and Lola loved her. She left the house in great shape and we had aproplem with a complaining neighbor (who always complains) that the dogs barked and Kelsey had too many dogs to walk so Kelsey spent the night! Very flexible. She sent photos! I'd hire her again in a heartbeat.
I used to stress about Marcel while I was on vacation, and worry that he was unhappy or sad. When Abbie takes care of him now, I don’t worry about that at all. I know that Abbie takes care of everything he needs and I get good updates every day. When I come home, Marcel is happy and well cared for. 🥰

I knew from the get-go that Laura was a good fit for us and our pets. Our two kitties warmed up to her immediately. Laura provided regular, detailed updates with lots of photos and we felt confident that our cats and house were in good hands. They were happy when we returned and didn’t even seem upset that we were gone. Thank you, Laura - we hope you are available next time we’re out of town!

Hannah was a miracle worker! My kitties absolutely adored her and she sent helpful photos and updates. She is very responsible and communicative, and obviously very capable with animals. I would have her back in a heartbeat! Thank you for treating my babies like you’re own!!!
