Safety, trust & environment

My apartment does not allow for dogs, and would prefer not to test how my cats would respond to other animals as it has been just them in my apartment for a few years now. I also believe that it's best to sit for apet in their own home where I am the only thing they have to adjust to. I am fastidious about following owner directions. My cats are fairly low-maintenance, but I also have experience with high-energy dogs like boxers, and pet size does not matter.

Sitter with Flexible Schedule

Pet care experience

I've taken care of family pets (cats and dogs) for 15+ years now, and on my own I a have two cats. My schedule is flexible, though my apartment does not allow for dogs and I prefer to pets sit at the pet's home, where they are most comfortable and familiar. I do not have experience caring for pets with serious medical conditions, but I have given dogs their medication on previous jobs.

We hired Holly again for an all day sitting job with our two lab dogs! She is awesome with our dogs--playing with them outside and inside and spending quality time with them! Great communication! We will be booking her again soon!

Excellent! This was the first time we used Rover. Holly was absolutely wonderful. She sent us a pic every day, with a little detail on how our Chloe was doing. She even brought over some tennis balls to play with. I had left very detailed instructions on how to care for Chloe—probably more than was necessary. Holly was very gracious and reassuring. Just a great experience.

Holly provided two days of day and overnight care for our two older labs dogs over a recent weekend in March of 2026. She also came the following week everyday Mon-Friday at lunch to let our dogs out, play, and feed them! She provided excellent care while we were out of town! Handled both of our aging dogs meds and needs! Wonderful communication and we will be booking her again! High recommend!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
