“Irisdelie was amazing, great communication and so so wonderful with my cats. Provided great updates with adorable pictures after each visit. I felt very comfortable and happy knowing my babes were being well cared for and loved while I was away.”

About: Hi, despite my legal display name, I go by Chris! I offer personalized, expert care with a focus on your dog's unique needs and happiness. With a background in animal behavior, I ensure a safe, enriching, and loving experience every time. My day revolves around ensuring pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. This includes scheduled walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of treats and activities!

About: I was a soldier in my country, I took my dog training course and worked with many breeds. I really like sharing my time with pets and I will take care of them as if they were my own. I work part-time and I want to share my free time with pets and take care of them as if they were my own and pamper them so that they feel good with me until they return home. I have an empty backyard which I could use for the care and much more of your pets with the greatest security and more confidence
“Neide continues to be reliable pet care. I was away for a week and she took good care of my cat, Bob. And plants too. Recommend her to anyone seeking good pet care.”

“Jade was absolutely incredible. I have 4 crazy Aussies that are full of energy but also full of love. Jade paid close attention to all my directions and my dogs were so happy to have her come see them every day. She gave them lots of love and worked on tricks with them to keep them engaged. I would recommend Jade to anyone who needs pet sitting or dog walking. She was wonderful.”

About: I can share that passion with other dogs and dog owners that need a further assistance with the furry family members. Taking care of various dogs makes it easier to learn their needs and wants and if they are well trained it will be easier to take care of them, In the other hand I have patience and a commanding voice that helps them understand I am in control. Snacks are also available which help me develop trust and a bond in order to contribute to a healthy relationship. I currently work full time but I am at home Monday, Friday, Weeknights after work and Weekends at any time to make sure their needs are taken care of. While taking care of your dogs I prioritize their safety by thoroughly assessing their environment, building trust with both the dog and the owner and providing excellent care
“Karollyne follows instructions super well & is genuinely caring for my cats. When it was too cold and I had my window open, she closed it so that my kitties will not catch a cold. It’s the small details that matter! I would definitely book with her again.”

About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.
About: With over two years of pet care experience, I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like family. I pay close attention to little details, like their favorite toys, preferred walking spots, treat times, and how they like to be greeted. Whether it’s belly rubs or playtime, your pet’s comfort and happiness always come first Currently, I’m getting online early morning training in my new skills, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pet. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening playtime, I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I follow their routines, respect house rules, and pay attention to small details like locked gates and secure leashes. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe and happy
“Kriti has been taking care of my cat for the past year now every time we are travelling. I love the rover cards she sends that are detailed around her feedings and bowel movements. She also plays with her and gets her energy out. She follows all instructions. Finding Kriti has made going on trips and leaving our cat home in the care of Kriti a lot easier. We truly appreciate her.”

“Lilian was great with our cats! She took amazing photos and cared for them like they were her own. She even played with them and got action shots!! She is a fantastic pet sitter and we would recommend her without reservation!! ~Rhonda & Mike”

“Lifu took care of our shy cat for two weeks while we were away, and she was amazing!🥹 This was our first time leaving our cat for so long, and we were very anxious, but Lifu made everything so easy. She visited our home daily, sent detailed updates and sweet photos, and followed all our instructions perfectly. Our cat is usually very nervous around new people, but Lifu was incredibly gentle and patient with her. She even left us a cute polaroid photo of our cat on the table-such a thoughtful gesture! We’re so grateful for Lifu’s care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter✨💛”

“Kayla was absolutely WONDERFUL with our two cats. Our cats are still acclimating to one another, and not only did she spend time with each of them but she did an amazing job at having them play together, listening to them if they had enough, and overall giving them many positive bonding experiences with each other. I also have a much more involved feeding routine/schedule for them than most people, and she followed everything perfectly. I always looked forward to her reports and pictures, and she was very thorough on her stay and how the cats were acting/feeling. I'm 100% sure they will miss her (especially Filo) and I will definitely call on Kayla again in the future!”

“Rachel did great with my boy Dior this week! She made sure that he was well fed, clean, loved, and taken care of. She also did great with helping him stay on top of his training commands that he’s learned and is constantly improving on. I really appreciate her, and I will definitely be rebooking to make sure my boy stays heading in the right direction as he grows!”

“Jestine is great and very sweet!! Our cat Juju warmed up to her quickly and we appreciated her kind and gentle energy towards him. Highly recommended and would book with her again!”

Lower Clinton Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
I honestly believe I have found the best sitter ever! ✨ Rachel was so detailed and passionate when it came to caring for my babies. I really appreciated the constant communication and updates. She was so helpful and thoughtful in everything that she did. Teddy and Khloe loved having you care for them and hope to see you on the next one 😇

Jane did an excellent job with drop-in visits for our two cats. She was reliable, showing up twice daily as scheduled, and clearly took great care of them. She played with the cats during her visits and kept their litter consistently clean. We appreciated that she went beyond the basics, keeping our kitchen spotless where the cats are fed. The photos from each visit showed our cats looking comfortable and content. It was so nice to come home tired and jet-lagged to happy, well-cared-for cats without having to tackle any cat-related housework.

Angie did a great job of taking care of our cats while my fiancé and I were on vacation. She followed our more in depth instructions with the food to a tee and did a great job making sure all the litter boxes were cleaned daily. Would definitely recommend.

Words are not enough to how I would like to describe my customer experience with Irene, but here I’ll try. Irene was extremely: attentive, caring, responsive, detail-oriented, committed, flexible and on time. She cared for my peace of mind, having great chemistry and patience with my pet, spending time with her, going above and beyond. I’m extremely satisfied with Irene as a pet sitter. I highly recommend Irene and look forward to working with her in the future.

Had a fantastic first experience with Hsin Yun and Phil. They were extremely communicative and took fantastic care of our many cats! I felt like my cats had extra special care taken towards them and will definitely look forward to booking them again in the future.
