Kayla was great! She was friendly and immediately loved on our cat during our initial meet and greet! She was prompt with her drop ins and kept us well informed while we were away! Her report cards were fun to read and she always included great pics to let us know the cat was well taken care of!

Kelsey visited my two kitties while I was away one weekend. She followed all the instructions and communicated really well with me before and during her visits. Loui and Lola seemed to warm up to her quickly. Reliable and trustworthy. Will definitely book Kelsey again!

I can't recommend Kassy highly enough! She did an exceptional job taking care of Bella. Kassy was incredibly detailed in her updates, providing thorough reports and sending plenty of pictures, which really put our minds at ease. Bella was clearly well taken care of, and we're so grateful for Kassy's attentive care

This was my first time using Rover, so I was nervous to leave my pup for the first time. I set up a few drop-in visits and Vivian came over for a quick meet-and-greet the day before. Vivian was on time and stayed with Felix longer than the drop-in window for couch cuddles and goofy pictures. I'll definitely be keeping her in mind should I need to leave Felix home during future travels.

About: I am a registered veterinary technician, working in the veterinary field for more than 10 years! I’m comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and have a strong background with pets who have mobility concerns. I will ensure your pets will be safe, happy, and well taken care of! From potty breaks, to walks, to multiple daily visits, to overnight stays! In addition, I’m comfortable with pets who require medication or injections. Feel free to call or text me for your pets needs! I have the capability of doing mid-day visits over my lunch breaks, along with visits before and after work! My weekends are free and I work 3 1/2 days during the week. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all client instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and playtime preferences. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, love, and enrichment, while also keeping their space tidy and comfortable. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m confident handling pets with special needs or administering medications safely. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy and cared for.

Daniel was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and I was a little anxious about the process. My booking was just a week in advance. Daniel made time to do a meet and greet beforehand, even with such short notice. He answered all my questions. Sent lots of photos of his drop-ins. Gave me total peace of mind!

Absolutely amazing! This was my first time trying Rover and I look forward to using it again! Christina was amazing and responded quickly to my very short notice request. She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!

About: ***So you want a housesitter?Please read carefully before booking. ***I have an 11lb Havanese in my home who will be w/me for housesitting and boarding assignments*** I live and work downtown (full-time remote). I can host your pet overnight in my home; stay overnight in your home if needed. Pop-in visits to provide breaks, walks, feeding if you live within a reasonable distance. I can also provide day care services. Very flexible and try to respond promptly bc we all have busy lives. I do not have a crate. Bringing your own crate is optional but not required. House broken/trained is preferred. I prefer to host 1 dog at a time. 2 dogs from the same household would be possible but prefer not to mix dogs from multiple households. ***Housesitting notice - I do have an 11lb Havanese puppy that would accompany me for overnight housesitting assignments. He's house-trained, does not shed and very friendly with people and other dogs.*** ***Boarding / House-sitting requests please note that I have a 1yr old 11lb Havanese in my home. Very social, friendly and playful. He gets along w/all people and dogs. He will also be w/me for any house-sitting bookings. House-trained and not destructive.*** I usually reply to requests within 10-20 min. If it's after 11 then the next morning. I work remote full-time Mon to Fri 8-5. Can do pop-in visits, walks and feedings as needed or on a set schedule that works best for your pet's current routine. Condo here and unfortunately do not have a yard but there are lots of green spaces near my condo at 10th and Mulberry. Space is over 1200 sq ft so plenty of room for your pet. ***I do have an 11 lb Havanese puppy that loves attention but is very smart and picks up on queues from other dogs. Shy and timid upon introduction and will play only if the other dog engages. Loves people and attention. My Havanese will be present for boardings and will accompany me for house-sitting bookings***

About: My family had dogs growing up so I have some experience walking and playing with dogs. I also have had my cats for about 7 years. I work from home Wednesdays and Fridays and could easily stop in for check ins during those days. I love to go on walks to grays lake so definitely looking for a dog or two to take with me. I would prefer a set of rules for my clients pets so I would know best how to service their pet while they are away.

Rachael was wonderful with our dog from the moment they first met. I was having surgery out of town and any concerns faded when I saw how good Rachael was with her right off the bat! One less thing to worry about during my hospital stay. She included adorable photos and details of each visit. In our initial visit with Rachel, it was evident her knowledge, passion and caring for dogs, and I had no doubt our dog would be in great hands. Thank you, Rachael!

Being a first time Rover user and first time ever using a pet sitter outside of established vet boarding, I could not have asked for a better first impression working with Kayla! I booked an initial meet and greet and an official drop-in with pretty short notice and Kayla was able to accommodate both. She communicates clear and promptly, and had no issues with my somewhat hyper puppy. If I was able to give 6 starts I would due to an issue of my own creation. I incorrectly selected the wrong date for our 2nd booking and Kayla arrived at the house and could not get in. I explained my mistake, she was completely understanding, and was able to come back the next day when my pup actually needed her. I am so grateful because I felt awful about wasting her time and my oversight. Thank you again!

Madison was absolutely fantastic! She was accommodating, personable, punctual, and wonderful with both my Yorkie and Persian cat. From the very beginning, she communicated exceptionally well, asked thoughtful questions, and made me feel completely confident that my pets were in great hands. Her reports were thorough and detailed, and she sent plenty of photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. She spent quality time playing with my pets, took my dog on walks, and clearly treated them with genuine care and affection. She also kept the house tidy and made sure pet bowls and feeding areas were always clean. Madison went above and beyond in every aspect of her care and truly exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.
