“Can’t thank Carly enough for getting me out of a last minute jam. She took amazing care of my two pups and did a great job communicating updates. Will definitely use her services again!”

“Christal does drop in visits at my house midday while I’m at work 2-3 times a week. She takes my husky mix out to play and go potty. My dog adores her and has had no issues with going to the bathroom which I was worried about. He feels safe and loved by her. Christal responds to messages almost instantly and takes lots of photos. I would highly recommend letting her watch your fur babies!”

“It was again so reassuring to know Alicia would visit our cat, give him some attention, clean water and food, and that our pet feels comfortable enough with her that she can send us a few pix while we were gone. Highly recommend!!”
“She did an excellent job with Maggie. I was nervous as I've never used a pet service before. Ana did a great job, kept me informed, sent me pictures, was prompt and communicating well. I would highly recommend her to watch your pet.”

“Olivia did a great job pet sitting for us. She was reliable, attentive, and took excellent care of our pets. She also communicated very well throughout the entire time, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her pet sit again.”

“Theresa took great care of my two kitties while I was out of town for two weeks! The girls warmed up to her immediately which is saying something as my youngest is usually very sketchy around people she does not know! I got daily pictures and can see them Playing with Theresa which was wonderful! Though I missed them terribly, I did not worry about them under Theresa’s great care! Very Happy !!!”

About: I’ve had many pets growing up my entire life, however, I began being an animal caretaker since 2019. Originally I was a flying nanny so I was never home, but I was transporting dogs and cats all over the United States from state to state. I fell in love with my job until I could no longer travel anymore. Now that I work from home, I still want to be able to continue my journey with caring for animals. Many people do jobs because their parents did it or they do it for the money; but I genuinely do it because I love animals… you might be able to say more than humans. I currently work from home and work when I want in my daily life would really affect my availability to pet sit. I’m basically available every single day of the week unless I make plans. I live in an apartment that has a grass area for animals to handle their business and it is fenced all the way around the apartment. And I have a very sweet cat who was about three years old and she does very well with other animals if your baby needs company.
About: I’ve taken care of family friends and neighbors pets for years! I have watched every animal - from dogs and cats to lizards and snakes, and love every moment of it. I’ve always had pets at home and I love fur-babies more than anything! I have trained 3 puppies and around 5 kittens! I am currently a college student, but with my schedule, I am able for walking or check-ins almost any time of the week! Weekends are completely open besides Sundays 12-2. I always ensure that my clients homes look better than I found it! I understand everyone has a different way of raising their animals and I respect any training or specifications given to me. I am comfortable with just about anything for pets!

“Adrienne was very attentive, caring, knowledgeable, prompt, and just a lovely carer to my cat, Wonton. She went above and beyond the call of duty and really got to know my kitty and his style in a short time. She played with him, showered him with attention, brushed him, gave him plenty of cuddles, and send tons of lovely pics. Will be using her again 100%.”

“Savannah was wonderful, very responsive, timely, and attentive! She went above and beyond to make sure my cat was safe and happy, and I will definitely book her again. Would recommend for your cat sitting needs!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life and understand each dog has their own needs. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want to relax! I am currently a college student with lots of time to care for your fur babies. My schedule can be very flexible and vary time to time. Whether I am in your space or mine I will ensure a safe environment. With clean, calm, and secure environment where your baby can relax.
“Tabbitha took excellent care of my kitties and promptly sent me visit cards with photos each time, which I really appreciated. She is quick to respond to messages and I felt relieved to have someone so caring and conscientious looking after my kids while I was away.”


About: I have experience dog sitting for friends/family and 10 years experience taking care of my childhood golden retriever. I have dog sit for dogs of all sizes and energy levels! I’m available any days and times! I’m in-between jobs and have plenty of time on my hands to take care of pets. The house I’m renting doesn’t accept any pets, but I can pet sit elsewhere, whether that be staying overnight or just stopping in multiple times a day to take care of pets.
“Maria is amazing as always! She took great care of my cat for a week and followed all instructions, as well as sent cute updates after each visit. We are lucky to have her :)”

About: I love animals and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember! I’ll make your experience as smooth and worry-free as possible by paying attention to your pet’s unique needs. I have experience with many different breeds and temperaments. I have worked with senior dogs who need medications or just some extra attention. I also know how to handle puppies as I have raised one myself. My weekdays are wide open! I work as a server at a bar which gives me lots of free time. I have some slots on the weekends as well (before 1pm). I appreciate your trust with your pet because I know they are family to us! I’ll do everything I can to keep your pet entertained, safe happy.
“Carly was amazing! She was super easy to work with and made Misty feel comfortable. She attended to all of her needs and made me feel extremely at ease leaving my baby with her. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: I grew up with two golden retrievers and have loved dogs ever since. I've had to say goodbye to my family dog to move out to Arizona but love to dog sit for friends in the area. I have cared for dogs my entire life, from my training my dogs as puppies, to caring for them as seniors. I am a recent graduate of ASU and am working a part time, flexible job so I will have plenty of time and flexibility to work with your schedule and play with your pups! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for pets. I have experience with puppies, including potty training, as well as senior dogs that require extra patience and care. I am happy to follow each pet's personal routine to make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and of course, happy.
Mach 8 pet parents share their Rover experiences
I’m reviewing again after a month of her watching my dog 2-3 days a week because Christal deserves ALL the praise. I genuinely couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my dog when I’m at work. She plays with him, gets him to go potty, feeds him by hand which is so funny, she responds insanely quick, suggests things I should get for my dog, sends me TONS of photos from every visit…in short she does a FANTASTIC job. If you need someone to watch your fur baby while you’re away Christal is the person to ask.

Estefany is amazing with my cat Wymack and even more amazing with communication and last minute accommodation! She went above and beyond watching my baby and fit in pet sitting him super last minute! I recommend her to anyone that needs some peace of mind when they are out of town!

Veronika was a great sport about a somewhat irregular cat sitting gig of looking after a semi-stray cat I have been feeding for several months. She sounded honestly happy and pleased the one time she saw the cat in the yard. Very reliable and easy to work with.

Marie was such a pleasure to work with! She came over for a meet and greet and took detailed notes on our kitty’s routine. I felt comfortable right away based on the thoroughness of her questions. We received detailed reports after each drop-in and the sweetest photos. It looks like they had a great time together! Would highly recommend

June did absolutely amazing caring for my little one. Athena was super comfortable with her and was all over her. She consistently cleaned her litter box and also swept/vacuumed around. Athena enjoyed her company and I had a piece of mind as I was traveling!

Tori was amazing! She had great communication the entire time, was super easy to work with, and really made me feel comfortable leaving my pets in her care. She went above and beyond, and my pets seemed so happy and well cared for when we got home. I could tell she genuinely cared and I would absolutely book with her again!
