“Liz was fantastic! She communicated clearly and consistently throughout the entire stay, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cats were relaxed and happy when I got home, which says a lot about the great care they received. I’d absolutely trust her to pet sit again—highly recommend!”
“Natalie was great! She was super friendly and responsive, she took lots of photos, and kept me updated :) It's hard to tell what cats are thinking, but I think they liked her too ;)”
“Leyna took care of my 2 cats while I was away on vacation, and she did a great job! She sent many photos, took care of their food/water/litter, played and gave treats, and left the house clean and tidy. Will definitely have back!”
“Bess took such good care of my two cats when I went out of town for a holiday weekend! On the meet and greet, she asked thoughtful questions about their likes and personalities, so I knew they would be in good hands. Her daily updates were thorough and delightful - it was great to see how the cats became familiar with her by the end of her visits. I hope to book her again in the future!”
“Alana took care of my cat and home for 3 weeks. She communicated well, sending photo regularly. She obviously bonded with Bruce. My home was left nice and clean. She even did a little shopping for me so that I had things for breakfast the next morning!”
“Bryn is absolutely wonderful! On time, communicative, and so kind/gentle with Milo. She is great at reading let body language and respecting when a pet just wants space. Super happy to have found her and be able to work with her.”
“Really great help from Kathryn while we were away for the week. She was extremely communicative and helpful when our cat got herself trapped in a closet and when one was very scared of being left alone. Thanks Kathryn!”
“Shannon is the best! She takes great care of our two cats and has gotten to know their individual personalities and needs. She sends plenty of updates and has left our home spotless. She will be our go-to sitter whenever possible.”
“She was so kind and took care of my cat so well. She did several extra drops to get and drop my key and I really appreciate it. I would definitely book her again next time.”
“This was my first time leaving my cats with somebody that isn't family so I was super stressed. Luckily, Tatiana was super helpful, understanding and an overall delight. I would receive updates (comments and pictures) daily which helped ease my anxiety. I think she took care of them so well that they didn't even miss me or feel my absence. I would definitely book her again!”
“We will definitely book with Karen in future - totally reliable, trustworthy, sent lots of pictures and updates. Left Leo and our home in perfect condition. She deserves more than the five stars allowed here - truly a gem!”
About: I’ve cared for low, medium, and high energy dogs, small, medium, and large breeds, friendly and reactive. I’ve dealt with food allergies, leash-pulling, SQUIRRELS! and anxious dogs. My 4.5 year old just passed in July 2025 due to cancer. He had food allergies, was reactive to other dogs, and was extremely smart and athletic. He was also very vocal and obsessed with toys. He was trained in the basics, running with me, basic scent work, counter conditioning for his emotional outbursts, and random tricks. He was very selective about who he liked and suspicious of strangers. I had a lab as a kid who loved absolutely everyone but would steal your food if you weren’t paying attention. I’ve had experience with dogs of many personalities and needs. I will treat your baby like my own. I can work with dogs of any age. I am available on most weekends during the school year, and any time during winter, spring, and summer breaks. Weekend walks, drip-ins, house-sitting, and boarding are all easiest for me. Weekdays are tough because my regular job is a teacher. Walks: properly fitting harness and leash, treats, following the rules of the road/crosswalks/etc. Client’s home: follow your instructions for dog care; always make sure dog is happy, fed, watered, crated or otherwise secure in the home etc. as asked. Doors will be locked when I leave and your home will look as clean as it was when I arrived when I leave.
About: I am new to rover but I have loved dogs my entire life! I was raised with small dogs but every dog size has my heart! I’ve been helping family/friends walk or take care of their own Cats and Dogs if needed for 5 years now! During the school year I am a full time Special Education preschool Substitute teacher, however in the summer, weekends, or after school hours you will find me playing tug of war with my dog, misting my Crested gecko’s tank, feeding my 4 goldfish and aquatic frog, or cuddling my cat! Growing up I would help walk family member's dogs around the neighborhood, and continue to do that with my own dog. I will occasionally help out my aunt with her dogs when she is on a vacation and she needs them to be let out and be fed! I have also helped a friend out who needed someone to look after their cat for a few days, who had to take medication! My cat is more on the shy side so when I do get those moments with him I make sure to play, and cuddle as much as I can sneak in!
“Julia was fantastic taking care of our two cats! She was professional and I could tell our cats were very comfortable with her right from the start, which gave us great peace of mind while away. I would highly recommend her services!”

Elana M.
“Elana is a dog whisperer. I have never seen her meet a dog that didn’t like her. She loves dogs, and they love her. She adopted her own dog from a rescue organization and raised him from a puppy. She has trained him exceptionally well and has kept him in excellent health. He is a big dog around 60-70 pounds. She has also cared for numerous other dogs, including my dog Hazel, who is about 45-50 pounds. Elana is very knowledgeable about dogs, dog training (positive reinforcement methods), and keeping dogs healthy and happy. She is very capable of dog sitting and walking almost any dog even if the dog requires special care, a special diet, or some extra patience due to anxiety or other issues. I have ask her for advice about dog training myself. She has more experience with medium and large dogs but can handle any size dog. Elana would be a great choice for a dog walker or dog sitter.”

Angela was great with our cat Onyx! She was very nice to chat with during our meet at greet assuring me he would be well cared for during her check ins! We were very happy with the pictures and communication while we were away and will for sure be using her again in the future!
Bess is a repeat sitter for me. She's wonderful with my kiddos - and they look forward to her visits. I know Ari & Hrolfie are looked after with love when I'm away from home. And, the check-in notes she leaves warm my heart. She really captures their personalities & their little quirks.
Justin was a fantastic rover! We were disappointed when our long term rover moved and he made the transition to a new car sitter easy. He spent more than the requested time with our cat, which was very appreciated, and met us beforehand to ensure the cat and we were comfortable. We are glad we found him and are able to rely on him in the future!
Nicole is great. She is patient , detail oriented and very reliable. She loves animals and was very good with my cat Leon. She is a great communicator, sends a lot of pictures , and asks the right questions. I trust her and would definetly recommend her. I will definetly use her services next time we need to. Thank you Nicole!
