Kaitlyn was great! Took great care of our pup and even brought in a giant package that arrived unexpectedly while we were away.

Kaitlyn is amazing with my pup! She provides the extra care and attention she needs while I’m away. Kaitlyn also keeps you up to date on what is going on with your pet. It made me feel more secure knowing what was happening. Will be using Kaitlyn again for pet sitting!

Kaitlyn is awesome! Great communication and care for our girls. We are so happy we can leave our pups home confident they get the same loving care as we give them.

I like to know about the dog’s temperament, any special needs, how long they can be left alone (for scheduling purposes) and any specific commands you’d like me to use! I also like knowing their favorite toys and quirks!
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.
