“This was my second time booking with Alissa and she was just as great the this time around. One of my kitties had an accident, and Alissa helped clean up and kept me updated throughout her drop-in on how my cat was doing. She’s very reliable and definitely my new go-to for watching my cats!”
“Jen was very attentive with Iroh and made sure that he was well cared for in our absence. I would happily book her again and recommend her to any pet parent!”

About: We will care for your dog like our own! Since our wonderful dog Stella passed we are looking to add more positive dog energy to our home. I am experienced with senior care; giving medications and supporting older dogs. I also have 4 years experience with dog walking and welcome energetic dogs. Both my husband and I work from home and will keep your dog company and make sure all needs are met. We have two children, ages 8 and 10, who have been raised to love and respect dogs and other animals. We only sit dogs from one household at a time so you can rely on individualized, attentive care. We have a fenced backyard and one friendly dog, Izzy. We will be your dog’s home away from home, with lots of exercise, cuddling, and fun.

“Stacey is the best cat sitter I've ever used! I had to leave the country for a month, and she took excellent care of my cat. I received several pictures daily and detailed updates, which reassured me he was in good hands. Even during a building fire alarm, she visited him to ensure his safety.”

Madison cat parents share their Rover experiences
Sierra left such cute notes and pictures and was very thorough with her care of our animals! I am definitely a nervous pet parent but my dog and cat did so well and I felt so comfortable with them in her care. And her prices are great!! But that’s just icing on the cake.
Lily took great care of my cats and was extremely patient in attempting to give one of them her medication. She even came back an additional time one day to try again, which I really appreciated. My cats were well cared for, and it was clear she genuinely wanted to do a good job. There was one day when I had to reach out to confirm she had stopped by, and she apologized, explaining that her phone had died during the visit. Overall, I appreciated her effort, reliability, and care for my pets!
This couple is great!! After the first time they took care of our cats, we knew we would book them again. (And we did!) They're on time and send multiple photos. Even our shy cat didn’t run away from them. Our outgoing cat was very happy to be petted, played with and fed while we were out of town. Thanks Nasimul and Nika!!
Gillian was amazing with my cat, Umi! She went above and beyond by staying for a while and sending photos. Umi can be nervous around new people, but she warmed up to Gillian so quickly and seemed really comfortable with her. It meant a lot to know she was in such good hands. I’d definitely recommend her and have her take care of Umi again!
Nate was wonderful, there's nothing more I could've asked from him. Nate was consistent and took great care of my cat while I was away. He even took care of a package I had that arrived while I was out. Overall, Nate was dependable, professional, and reliable. I would absolutely rebook next time I am in need of a Rover sitter.
Olivia was a great pet-sitter and made sure that my cat got food, love, and playtime while I was out of town for a week. Her veterinary background made me feel especially confident knowing that if there was any sort of medical issue she would be well-prepared to deal with it.
Mary truly loves cats and kittens! It's been a pleasure to communicate with her over the texts. She's always been very responsive and professional, which gave us peace of mind during our travels. We'll definitely re-book and recommend her services to our friends!
