Kate is always great with the dogs. They are very comfortable to have her take care of them. She always provides feedback and contacts me if there is an issue.

House Sitting • Mar 30, 2026

Kate and Tim are the best. Our two Siamese and our Collie love them! We worked so well together via phone and text/email so that we all understood what our boys needed. They sent pics and updates every day. Came home to a tidy home and happy pets.

Let us know what your pet likes/doesn’t like, any words they know, any triggers for aggressive behavior, how is their behavior with other pets in the home and on walks. If medication is given, if pill pockets or cheese or peanut butter works. What is their signal for needing to go potty? What is their normal schedule, for feeding, walks, playtime, sleep time, meds if any? What is their favorite toy or game?
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.
