“Sia was wonderful! Our pup is a little shy at first, and Sia was so patient and warm while Apple warmed up to her. She gave detailed explanation of what they did together, and took many pictures to show our sweet happy pup in her care! I am so glad to have found Sia, and I will definitely be using her again!”

“Thank you so much!! Bella hates the rain so I’m not surprised she wasn’t too interested. I forgot to leave her raincoat out, she’s a little more agreeable with that on but I really appreciate everything yall did”

“April was amazing. Very professional. Took care of any changes we had immediately. Our Animal kingdom loved her, and she loved taking care of them. She was always on time for her drop-ins and she checked in and checked out perfectly. She let us know of any issues, a and took care of them immediately. Such a pleasure knowing that we could relax knowing our pets would be well cared for. We were able to concentrate on our family. We will most definitely book with her again.”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats—and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program that meets on Monday and Tuesday evenings, but other than that my schedule is incredibly flexible! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.
“We have received an outstanding and amazing help from Yaritza, our doggy loves her and she was so professional throughout the process of our first time hiring sitter services for my pup. Thanks so much for everything Yaritza!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages for 6 years! I’ve assisted with training puppies and rescues and have a passion for all parts of pet care, even the messy things! I’m currently a full time college student studying Pre-Vet which makes my schedule pretty hectic! I have 2-5 classes a day which are typically an hour, but anytime before, after, and in-between, I would love to spend it with our cuddly friends! This gives them the attention they need while also providing me a space to do some studying! Pets deserve as much consistency as possible while missing their loved ones! It’s my goal to tend to their needs whether it be low or high energy. Simple or extensive diets, I can do it!
About: Dog sitting is more than a job for me- it’s a passion! I’ve spent time with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Terriers to gigantic Great Danes. I’m not just your average sitter; I bring a knack for understanding doggy body language, a talent for getting even the pickiest pups to swallow their pills, and I always carry a bag full of treats (of course!). Whether your dog needs a running buddy, a snuggle partner, or just someone to toss the ball again and again- I’ve got it covered. I pride myself on keeping tails wagging and owners stress free, knowing their fur babies are in the best hands. Since pet sitting is my primary job and I’m currently a college student, my schedule is quite flexible. I can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine, offering plenty of time for walks, play sessions, and any special needs your dog may have. My evenings and weekends are also free, so I can provide consistent care and attention throughout the week. Safety and trust are crucial when caring for pets in your home. I make sure to follow your specific instructions to the letter, from feeding routines to exercise needs. I will keep your home secure by ensuring all doors and gates are closed and never leave your pet unattended in potentially hazardous situations. I also maintain a clean and organized environment, respecting your space and belongings. Your pet’s well-being is my utmost concern, and I strive to provide the same level of care and attention that you would.
About: This job helps me pay my school tuition. So please book with me it would really mean a lot:) I love playing with dogs!! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11. I really enjoyed it because I love animals. In the summer I had an internship at a doggy daycare. I would feed, bathe, train puppies and even take care of senior dogs too. I’m currently attending vet assistant school so I have limited availability during the week but open during weekends! I would have free time to have playtime with your wonderful dogs. Also book with me during holidays!! I unfortunately don’t have a fenced yard. But I will definitely keep an extra eye out on yall babies. I would have a fun but also safe environment for these beautiful pets.
“My first time using rover I was nervous bc my sheltie is not the best with strangers but she managed to befriend him and my two crazy corgis she went above and beyond taking care of my babies and even bringing in a few packages and helping with my outdoor cat I cannot recommend her enough we will definitely be asking her to pet sit again in the future”


“Luciano was great! He was very responsive and communicative. Our dogs loved him! As a fellow Rover sitter, I am picky as to who comes into my home and even more picky with who takes care of our fuzzy crew when we need extra help. I will absolutely use him again and whole heartedly recommend him!”

“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”

Lime Street pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kylee was great with our pets! I hate leaving them at all, but sometimes it can't be helped. When we got home, we found the pets happy, litter box clean, & all the pet bowls washed. It's so nice having someone caring and trustworthy like Kylee to turn to when there's no other option besides leaving them behind. We'll definitely use her again if the need arises.

I recently had Sia cat sit for my cat, Mylo, and she was fantastic. Sia came to my home each evening, feeding him, letting him enjoy some time on the back porch, and giving him company. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring. She sent quick updates and was punctual every day, which gave me great peace of mind. When I returned, Mylo was relaxed and happy clear signs he’d been well cared for. It’s not easy to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but Sia absolutely did. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, kind, and caring cat sitter.

Katherine is our favorite pet sitter we’ve ever had! As someone who feels anxiety leaving their pets in someone’s care, I can finally enjoy my time away from home because she takes such great care of them. She takes lots of fun pictures of their time together and my dogs love when she comes to play. I cannot recommend her enough!
