“Spencer is a fantastic sitter. He goes above and beyond for your pets and is extremely trustworthy. You won’t be disappointed with him! Our cats are already looking forward to seeing him again”
“Madelyn took a great care of our cat while we were away for 10 days. It was a first time I had to leave the cat in someone else's care, and Madelyn alleviated my worries right away by coming for an introductory visit, sending pictures, and promptly responding to messages. She even helped with mail and watering houseplants.”

Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated throughout her visits and even sent the most adorable photos of my cat that brightened my day. I could tell right away that she is not only trustworthy but also very knowledgeable about animals. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I highly recommend Tamika to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter. She’s the best!”

I will ignore them if they seem shy or until they decide they would like to interact with me. I will feed them, clean the litter and whatever else is asked of me for housesitting or care. I have extensive childcare experience with plenty of references upon request, to show my ability to care for people as well as animals. I am looking for this as part time employment as I nanny 3 days a week, so I will be free to provide the best possible care. I recently came back from being a nanny in The Netherlands for 2 years.

My dog like to dance with me and play tug of war or just run together in the field by the end of my road. In regards to your animals, I make sure to follow the instructions carefully and pay great attention to details. If in your home, I will always make sure to take off my shoes, not make any messes, respect your personal things, and treat your sweet babies as if they were my own!

She would be a great playmate for another active dog, but will match the energy of a less playful or elderly dog. She is also very respectful of cats. My cats are used to other respectful dogs and cats staying in the home. I have a decent sized yard that is partially fenced in. I also have a lead set up that allows access to a large portion of the yard. I also live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and plenty of safe places to walk dogs.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Milford
Christyna is so amazing!! She is such an animal lover and has such great experience, she had wonderful communication and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was taking care of my kitties especially the one who needed medicine, she was so incredible I’d definitely recommend and use again!
We cannot recommend Mikala enough! Leaving our cat Salem while we were away for nearly two weeks on our honeymoon was one of the hardest parts of the trip, but she gave us complete peace of mind from day one. She checked on Salem daily, spent quality time with him, made sure he was fed, comfortable, and cared for, and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout our trip. As devoted pet parents, those updates meant the world to us and allowed us to truly enjoy our honeymoon knowing Salem was in such loving hands. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of her own. We came home to a happy, healthy, well-loved cat, and we are so incredibly grateful for the care and attention she provided. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, compassionate, and attentive to care for your pets, look no further. We will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy, Salem. 🤍
