“Maiah is my go to sitter, she is amazing with Terra. Maiah does a great job with communicating and leaving a detailed review of the visit. Maiah is very trustworthy.”


“Ilene was great! We have a foster cat in quarantine with an infection and wanted someone to spend time with him while we were out of town. Ilene was able to give him some quality time and attention, he was a happy camper. The updates we got were good and the photos were perfect. Thank you!”


“Vilma was great with communication and was so kind! She sent multiple pictures a day and daily updates of how my boys were doing. I will definitely be keeping her in mind with future travels.”



“Very responsive and attentive. I booked them last minute for an evening visit and they responded right away! They gave lots of picture/text updates and I felt like my pup was in great hands.”

“Alis was extremely pleased to be set with Brittni! Brittni is extremely responsible and prompt with sending photos of a happy dog obviously relaxed. I think Alis enjoyed making a new friend in Brittni! Couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter!”


“Jessica was able to come on short notice and even cleaned up my puppies potty accidents on the carpet while helping to potty train. Thanks for watching my still in training puppy and also for taking the time to correct him and clean up after him. I will defiantly be hiring again!”

About: For the last five years, I have worked at zoos, shelters, and sanctuaries with a variety of animals! In the past I have owned reptiles, and I currently own one dog and three cats. Additionally, I usually have at least one foster animal in my care at all times. I understand that each animal is an individual and will adjust my behavior accordingly. I am happy to be active if your dog is a runner, or a couch potato if they're more of a snuggler! I have experience providing medication and special diets. I am currently working with my dog to decrease his reactivity and my cats on harness training! I am more than happy to do any enrichment or training you request with your furry friend! I am currently between jobs and have few set commitments. This allows me to be extremely flexible in my schedule for all your pet care needs! I ensure that in addition to basic necessities, my animals are given physical and mental enrichment each day, whether it's a training session with my dog or a puzzle feeder for the cats. I am more than happy to do the same for your pets!

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. Every time I get the opportunity to watch a fur baby, I treat them like they are my own. I have done some dog/puppy training as well, and I've always gotten great reviews on what one's pet can do by the time they go home (If interested) As of right now, my schedule is completely open, Monday - Sunday. I am in a transition period, so I would love to prioritize your fur baby. I live in an apartment on the east side, so I’m close to several parks and have access to trails, lakeside, dog parks if these attributes benefit your baby. I’m a very active person, so taking your animal on several walks a day is a treat to me!

“We LOVE Jensen and will 100% be booking with him again. He took such good care of our babies, communicated with us well, all the updates and pictures kept us at ease. And even our shy boy warmed up to Jensen’s amazing energy!”


“Alexis was great! Very friendly and good communicator. She is one of the few people that our cat has come out to say hi to while we’re gone. We were confident our cat was well taken care of!”


“Jenna was amazing! She was so patient and kind with our pup with separation anxiety. She was friendly and very communicative. I felt comfortable leaving our sensitive dog with her for an evening while we went out. We would love to have Jenna watch River again!”


“They did a great job taking care of my older dog! They sent great updates and did the extra work needed to take care of her from carrying her up and down stairs to helping with her food. It felt like close friends taking care of her and highly recommend them!”


“Kennedy watched our babies for the first time and she went above and beyond to make sure our cats were well cared for during our vacation. She bonded with our pets and help them being less anxious. Her detailed updates helped us reduce our separation anxiety too. We definitely plan to hire her again. She is a superstar!”

About: Hello my name is Keegan. I am passionate about care for all animals. A little bit in my background, I have taken care of dogs in all sizes and energy levels since I was a kid.

About: I have been around animals for most of my life - from dogs to cats to gerbils, I love them all! Growing up I had both dogs and cats, and feel comfortable with any size animal. Throughout my family dogs’ training when I was younger, I was very involved and learned a lot. I have also watched pets for friends and family members in the past, including feeding, walking, and just spending time with them. I understand that each and every pet has different personalities and energy levels, and I am able to easily adapt to such. I would love to take a long walk with your energetic pal, an easy walk around the block, or even just sit in company with them! Can’t wait to help you and your furry friends! I currently work as a registered nurse in the area, which leaves my schedule fairly open. I work night shift, so my work and sleep schedule is usually flexible and complimentary to normal working hours of others! My week to week schedule is not always the same, leaving room for full days of availability and extended hours as needed. My home is mine and my two cats’ sanctuary and I treat it as such, with respect, cleanliness, and love. I will do the same with your home and pets, as I understand the value of a trusted caregiver!

Often asked from direct friends with pets if I’m available to take care of theirs! I currently work full time from 8:30 -4:30. I am able to leave briefly and am available during the weekends. I am also able to check during the weeknights as well. Ability to take for walks and runs to make sure your pet gets to stay active and healthy. Able to provide quality time with pet to soothe anxiety around owners leaving. Also able to utilize any play toys to entertain your dynamic pet as well!

Alyssa S.
“Alyssa is not only an incredible friend, but also a loving mother to two cats of her own. She is extremely organized and timely as a caregiver, but is also so nurturing and caring for all the pets (and people!) in her life. She’s always on time, and is always ready to give quality time to those who need it. Not only has she cared for her own two pets, but she grew up with cats and dogs and has helped care for numerous friends’ pets. And she does so with loving attention, because she knows what it’s like to leave your most precious little loved ones in the hands of someone else. Alyssa’s hands were made to care for others :) she would be a wonderful addition to the Rover team and a responsible, loving caregiver to pets of all kinds.”


Tekoya C.
“Tekoya is a responsible pet-lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals. He’s active, attentive, and makes sure pets are happy, safe, and well-cared for. He has watched my pets in the past and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were safe with Tekoya.”
