It was our first time leaving them so we were nervous but Annmarie made sure they were taken care of while also keeping them separate since they don’t all get along.

About: I don’t have any experience with senior animals but I am eager to learn more about the care that they need! I have three cats so I know how to care for animals with different personalities! I am a respite care provider part time, but I always have time for furry friends. I make room in my schedule to work for Rover and engage with other animals besides my own! I would prefer for care to be provided in your house, but I also have a one bedroom apartment with plenty of room for cats to roam (including s screened in porch to bird watch) and lots of toys! I also have a large backyard for dogs to run around and play fetch!
About: The experience I've gained from both my own furry friends, and those that I've taken care of has given me a unique perspective and love for animals and their well being. Not only do I take pride in my care for each pet's specific needs, but I simply hold such a deep love and care for animals and their happiness. Knowing when I go out of town or am away from my dog that he is receiving top tier care is of upmost importance to me, and I can't wait to provide the same for others. I'm home from college for the summer and have a lot of time on my hands, on top of my current summer job, and would like to spend my time helping others and making dogs more comfortable and happy when their owners are unable to provide that care. I walk my 11 year old German Shepherd 2 times a day, and care for him with additional attention towards his medication, vet appointments, and outdoor time. I spend much of my day invested in his happiness and overall well being as part of my daily routine, so I am very attentive towards animal's specific needs.

Madison cat parents share their Rover experiences
Karly was a joy to work with! Very communicative, kind, and flexible to handle unforeseen issues. The cats loved her! My cat who hides from new folks warmed up to her immediately. I would definitely recommend Karly and will be re booking with her for my next rover reservation (-:
Nina did an excellent job caring for our cats and fish while we were out of town. She was on top of feeding and medication schedules, kept the litter boxes tidy, and the water dishes were all full when we got home. I usually have to do a bit of damage control after a long trip because the pet sitter doesn’t keep up with all the various needs, but I am super impressed with Nina’s work—as far as my pets go, it’s like we weren’t gone at all.
I was so glad I had Maddie watching my cats while I was gone. She kept me updated with photos and any other little info that she thought would be helpful for me to know while I was gone. It put me at ease to know my cats had her checking on them consistently and showing them love.
Calvin went above and beyond to make sure that my cat was happy and well cared for while I was out of town. He was very communicative, sending regular updates and photos. He was always happy to help and incredibly flexible. I would highly recommend Calvin to look after your pets.
Ruby was a fantastic cat visitor! Communication was clear and timely throughout, and I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. She took excellent care of my cat making sure she was fed, played with, and comfortable. I really appreciated how Ruby also cleaned the food dish and litter box each visit. It’s clear she genuinely cares. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!
Bob took care of my little bundle of joy, Cheeti, a 17 years young cat. I appreciated many things. Bob was punctual which was very important to me since Cheeti requires meds. He also sent multiple updates and pictures. This made a big difference since I could see that my baby was well taken care of and as a result I was able to thoroughly enjoy my time away. Cheeti and I give Bob 5 gigantic shining stars!
