“Maelee did an awesome job watching my pup. It was obvious that she loves spending time with animals. She even added little touches that I really appreciated like wiping my dog’s paws after being out in the snow and even leaving me a thank you note when I should be thanking her! Thank you Maelee for taking such good care of Lena!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life, with experience caring for dogs of many different sizes and breeds. While taking care of your pet I will make them feel at home, maintain their routine with them and give plenty of attention. Pet care is vital in my house. With 3 animals to take care of, I have daily routines set in place in order to ensure my pets are well taken care of. We have a fenced in yard and space to run around, and a quiet, no-outlet neighborhood with no drive-thru traffic for walks. There is a dog bed for sleeping and a crate if needed.
“Lauren was a fantastic sitter for my two anxious cats. She took time to come over and meet us before I left & asked great questions to make sure she understood everything. I appreciated her photos & update and returned to 2 happy cats. Thank you Lauren!”
“Kelsey took such good care of my cat while we were away! She was able to get our shy little cat to come out of her shell and live her best life! I’ll definitely be looking for Kelsey again if I need to re-book.”
“I’m so thankful for the love & care that Suzanne and her kids gave my kitten. He got sick the night before I left and she really helped me out by giving him his needed meds while I was gone. I’m sure my kitten enjoyed all of the play time with her kids! Highly recommend them.”
“Taylor did a great job making sure that Willie was taken care of while we were away for Christmas. She was very accommodating to our last minute booking and we are so grateful for her”
“Abby was fantastic! We were worried about using Rover for the first time but ended up being SUPER impressed with the checkin system and Abby's work. She sent us pictures and an update every day. She was really quick to respond and nice to meet. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Brian was an excellent cat sitter for our four cats during a weekend drop-in visit. He was extremely responsive, flexible, and accommodating of our specific requests. Even though our cats were understandably shy and spent most of the time hiding, Brian went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and cared for. He even cleaned up after them without hesitation, which we greatly appreciated. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was checking in. We would absolutely recommend Brian to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter—and we’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Brooke took care of our three cats and saltwater fish tank while we were on vacation. She was reliable with all the check in visits and sent updates with pictures as well. I would recommend her to others and we will use her again in the future!”
“Holly Jean was wonderful! She sent me detailed updates about how her drop in visit went. She followed all my instructions perfectly. She was communicative during the booking process and did not hesitate to reach out if she had any further questions. I felt like my cats were well cared for with her!”
“Colene did a great job with our dog and cat! She showed up on time, followed all of the instructions we left her and there were no issues whatsoever! We felt completely at ease while we were away knowing our pets were in good hands. Thank you, Colene!”
“Molly did a tremendous job caring for our cat while on vacation. She has been friendly, communicative, professional, and reliable. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs since childhood. My friends, family, and co-workers have trusted me to care for their fur babies! I have a senior pittie with reactive/aggressive behavior, so I do have experience and empathy towards that! I work full time Monday-Thursday 7:30am-5pm but can drop in after work or later in the evening as well. Friday-Sunday are my more flexible days! I fully respect the owner’s schedule for their pet and will follow whatever instructions are needed to ensure your pet is safe and cared for properly. I would ask the same for my own!
“Ariel has been so incredible while I was away. So good and patient and loving with my senior boy. She checked in and took photos and left amazing notes every time! 10/10 would recommend!”
“Claire is the best! She is reliable and took the time to get to know each of our cats’ personalities. Two of our cats are on a pretty strict medication regimen and Claire was able to administer their meds with no issue. Best cat sitter we have ever had!!!”
“Kaitlin is incredibly proactive, communicative, and responsible! She watched our two cats over a weekend and sent us lots of cute photos and detailed updates. We were super impressed with her and she made us feel so secure about leaving for the weekend. I trust her completely and would highly recommend her to anyone!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember! My family and friends trust me to care for their fur-babies and you will, too! I am currently working part-time / from home, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to hang with your pet(s)! I am available Monday-Friday, preferably before 5pm, but can make most week nights work. (I may be available on some weekends if prearranged!) I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walking services, but if things go well I would be open to doggy day care or overnight stays at my home! My dog Marshall and I walk about 3 miles a day and play a lot of fetch in our large fenced in yard. We enjoy finding new places to hike and looking for a good place to swim! As a teacher of 8 years, I am very caring, kind, and trustworthy!
“Elizabeth did a great job checking in our dogs. We have an older one that has been placed on new meds that needs to be let out and a younger one that has a lot more energy. She communicated very well and provided really nice updates! I highly recommend!”

Midtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was gone for a week and had Brian come by daily to look after my cat. She gets stressed when I’m gone and isn’t very friendly to new people. I was really happy that Brian was understanding about this. He took great care of my cat and nothing was overlooked. He was reliable and great with communication. I’d hire him again for sure.
I can definitely see that Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of our cats. I could see in their faces in the updates and tell in their body language when we returned that they didn’t miss us too much. Amanda did a great job entertaining and maintaining their schedules. This was a stress free vacation for me and the cats!
I don't usually leave reviews, but I felt compelled to make an exception for Evelyn. She took excellent care of our pets with great attention and care. She followed every instruction to the letter and clearly takes her responsibilities seriously. It’s rare to come across someone so reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. Just a really nice kid with a great attitude. Highly recommended!
We so appreciate Tia being able to stop by for a fairly last minute visit. She spent lots of time playing with fern in the backyard and made sure she was fed. Fern was so happy when I got home and clearly had plenty of playtime with Tia which is great! We will certainly reach out for drop in visits again.
