“Absolutely wonderful! Thank you for bringing some toys over and making us feel so good about leaving our dog (and lizard) for the week. Appreciate you!”


“Bridget did wonderfully with my fur babies. I received great updates and pictures during my weeklong trip. Biggest flex for her—my antisocial orange cat embraced her on the visits! Care provided was above and beyond; it alleviated my fears of having to leave them home. Will certainly be booking her for future trips!”


About: Hello! My name is Jacob. I’m a PE teacher, and I love the outdoors, video games, and animals. I will take care of your pet like they are my own. I love dogs and cats alike. I’ve taken care of at least 1 animal in my household since I was in 5th grade, with gaps here and there as I went to college. I have lots of experience with dogs and cats, most recently with my puppy, Cleo. She is my first dog on my own. I also owned a cat for 5 years. I am a PE teacher while working a second job with the after school program, so I am gone from 7-6. I can be home promptly after work around 6-6:30. I am also available all day Saturday and Sunday, with Sunday being family and soccer commitments. I currently live in a spacious 1 bedroom apartment complex. However it has tons of green space and grass, and even a small dog park. I love getting outside and exercising, so I can definitely take your dog on a walk, run, or the park. They will have all their needs taken care of. If I have to stay at your house, I will treat your home with the utmost respect and dignity. I also have a dog that is friendly.

“Lucy cares so much for my bratty little terrier. We've used her multiple times and my dog enjoys having her around after she realizes I'm not coming right back. Can't say enough good things about Lucy.”


“Janie is SO amazing! Took great care of my two cats Benjamin and Dixie. This was my first time using rover services and she set my expectations so high. She cleaned my apartment before she left to make sure my home was nice when I get back. I truly appreciated that. Also, my cats are really shy and don’t typically like new people and they loved her immediately. I know they were in good hands with her! Definitely will book again!”


“Brooke is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of our 2 furry kids Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She was always on time, reliable, very warm, friendly and caring. She also kept the area spotless while I we were away." She did go the extra mile when we asked her if she can do an extra day We will for sure use her again”


“Katie was awesome! She was extremely communicative and that put me at ease. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies and giving them all the love. She also took the best pictures! Thanks again :)”


“Nicole is the absolute best!!! She always sends pictures and leaves detailed notes about her drops ins. It’s such a relief to be able to travel and know my babies are in good hands. I recommend Nicole a thousand times over 🧡🧡 thanks Nicole!!”


“Jen did a great job taking care of our cat Phoebe while we were out of town! Jen sent great updates every day including photos of the happy cat, and did everything on the daily checkup list at every visit. We would definitely choose Jen again if we got the chance.”


“Debby was very professional, kind, and flexible. I felt very safe with my dog staying with her and being taken care of by her. She handled Cleo with kindness and love that I would give her myself. I really appreciated her taking Cleo in on short notice and even took her in to her house instead of just dropping in.”


About: Hi, I’m Calvin — a dedicated, trustworthy caregiver with over 20 years of experience in customer service, hands-on care roles, and community support. Growing up in a dog-loving household (we usually had 3 or 4 dogs at a time), I learned early on how important it is to respect animal behavior, provide structure, and manage energy — both theirs and ours. As a kid, I spent countless hours playing fetch, tug-of-war, and even basketball with my dogs. That love and respect for animals has only grown stronger over time. Now, as a parent, I’ve passed on that same companionship and responsibility to my children. We enjoy daily walks and playtime in our large fenced backyard with our pets — it’s a lifestyle rooted in patience, calmness, and care. In July 2025, I made the decision to offer full-time pet sitting services (early mornings to late evenings) so I could focus more on family and the kind of work I truly enjoy. I provide boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking — all with a professional yet personal touch. I’m also CPR & First Aid certified, with a calm demeanor that works well with anxious or high-energy pets. Whether your pet needs structured care, playful companionship, or just a dependable human to check in while you're away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I pride myself on clear communication, cleanliness, and creating a safe, peaceful environment your pet can feel at home in. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon! My current work and family schedule permits me to work wide ranges of availability. I'm available weekdays and weekends with short notice. I'm available for in-home care, drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, and boarding. I have a large fenced yard with 2 friendly dogs that have their own dog runs and kennel. The dogs will be allowed indoors and outdoors as the preference or needs changes.

About: Ive had dogs my whole life, from a small Pomeranian to a large German shepherd and all sizes in between! We have cat, Rabbit, and chicken experience as well! Lauren works from home and will be here all day to take care of any pets in our care! Our large backyard is the perfect place to let the dogs roam and get some energy out! We have a fenced in yard, dogs will be let out for at least 15 minutes every 2-3 hours. We have a separate room that will have a run/large kennel for your dog to be in when needed and overnight. I also have a room that will be set up for rabbits to be kept in their enclosure and seperate from all other animals. Safety is our first priority so all animals from seperate household will be let out separately!

About: Ive had dogs all my life and my friends often have pets i love to visit. I used to work for a manufacturing company that sells veterinary products and i would attend trade shows in the U.S., Mexico, and Canda. I am currently available anytime before 7am and after 4pm. You can book me for check ins, house sitting, pet sitting, dog walks, restroom visits, or to run an errand for your pet. I usually like to visit a local dog park for your dog to exercise and sometimes even a lake if your pet likes to swim.

“I cannot thank you enough for the care you provided my babies! Thank you again for helping soothe my anxiety about leaving them for the first time in a very long time.”

Calvin F.
“I’ve known Calvin F. for several years, and I can confidently say he would be an exceptional pet sitter and dog walker. Calvin is incredibly reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares for the well-being of every animal he meets. He has a calm and friendly demeanor that animals naturally gravitate toward, and he treats pets with the same love and respect as if they were his own. Calvin is also highly responsible and communicates clearly, which makes him easy to trust with important tasks and routines. Whether it’s going for a walk, feeding on schedule, or just giving a pet some well-deserved attention and playtime, Calvin always goes above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend him for Rover. Pet parents can feel confident knowing their pets are in capable, caring hands.”

Matlock Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
I'm so thankful for Jennifer's last minute help to check on my cat during a week long vacation. My plans changed and I reached out with only a few days before my departure, Jen responded right away and was thankfully available. I really appreciated the daily updates with photos while I was away.

Meghan was so sweet to my kitties! I left to travel home for two weeks and was completely at ease because I knew they'd be safe with her. She was also so understanding during the winter storm with all my flight delays and helped make sure my cats were safe and warm in my apartment for an extra day-- no questions asked.

Corie is absolutely amazing! She is punctual and caring, always a delight to work with and has become our go to cat sitter. She provides detailed updates and pics every time she visits our cat and most importantly, our cat loves her. We are deeply thankful to Corie for all that she does for our cat and how stress-free she makes our travels.
