“Madison took awesome care of our kitty, Gremlin! We’re so happy we found her and that she was available on short notice. She gave great updates, was super responsive, and even took the time to play “string” with Gremlin each time. I would definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“Elizabeth was such a huge help! My circumstances were changeable as I planned my trip. Elizabeth was very accommodating. She was very thorough and watchful over my senior cat who has some health issues. Thanks again!”
“Andrea was super kind and communicative, and really patient with our relatively high energy/touch sensitive dog. I really appreciated her taking the time to let me explain her care during our M&G. She sent pictures regularly and played Mizzy's favorite games with her! I'd absolutely book with Andrea again :)”
“Brianna is just wonderful. She took great care of my two kitties. She is kind, patient and very communicative. I have a very shy kitty and she warmed up to Brianna quickly. I had peace of mind while I was away and completely trust her in my home. Thank you Brianna for taking such good care of my kitties!”
About: I have taken care of my own family dogs and cats for my whole childhood and adulthood life. I have been given the experience of watching my neighbors and friends' pets. It has ranged from hamsters to dogs. I also have experience with training and watching after puppies. I work full-time as a teacher so am home by midafternoon. I take a mile walk before I leave for work and when I get back, so your pet will receive adequate exercise and stimulation. I have a dog to keep your furry friend company! He is very calm and loves other animals. I have space if your animal needs separation or to be crated for any reason.
About: I’ve been trusted by friends, friends of friends, family, and neighbors to care for their loved ones, spanning 23 years! I have experience with extended in-home pet care, drop in’s, and enrichment time with dogs and cats. I also have experience with other pets like fish, rats, hamsters, bearded dragons, turtles, hedgehogs, and frogs. Nothing is more important to me than building trust with your pet and with you! I am a freelancer in film so my schedule is VERY flexible. I am almost always available to care for your pet and am very communicative! Along with caring for your pet, I am also very keen on making sure your home is secure when I leave, so you can always feel at ease!
About: I have lived with cats my entire life and have an abundance of experience caring for them, meeting their needs and wants. Growing up, I also lived with fostered pugs from a local pet rescue and have experience caring for them. While living in Colorado recently, I gained further experience cat sitting, while caring for dogs, geckos, pet birds, and chickens in a suburban setting. I have some experience walking dogs in urban settings. I am able to visit or stay with your dog to provide food, water medicine, play, and companionship. I also clean yards and immediately pickup pet waste when outside and clean in-house messes to prevent stains. I am communicative about pets and send daily updates and photos unless requested otherwise. I am currently a graduate student who only has class two days a week. I can visit animals daily with limitations to evening time on Tuesdays for visits. I am able to stay overnight with pets in their homes everyday and my maximum time out of the home at this time is 7 hours once a week. I often stay with dogs and visit cats, but can stay overnight in order to maintain their feeding and exercise routines. I let dogs out into the yard and spend time playing with them outside or go on morning and evening walks. With current flexibility, I can go on lunchtime walks. I always update clients about their pets daily unless requested otherwise.
About: I grew up with dogs, so I am pretty comfortable around them. My services for dogs is mainly taking out for walks and feeding them when you're unavailable. Not much luck in the job department as of late, so I'd rather do something to keep active and make a little something from it. The reward is getting to meet your pets and knowing that I am helpful in the time of need. I am available on weekdays anytime after 8am. I will do as the future client suggests when it comes to caring and feeding their pet. I will treat their pets as if they were my own.
“Carolyn is amazing! She watched our cat while we were away on vacation. She administered medication every day and made sure to send us fun pics of our cat! She is hands down the best cat sitter on here!”
About: I’ve had both dogs and cats since I was 2 years old so I grew up learning to love and take care of animals! Aside from my home, I grew up around my aunt’s farm where we have anything from donkeys to chickens. It’s safe to say I’ve always been an animal lover! I’ve experienced anything from typical pet routines to those with special needs that require extra care and attention. I have experience with both puppies/kittens as well as senior pets and I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I’ve been pet sitting for others through friends and family for about 3 years since I started college and thought I’d give Rover a try! I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of extra time to care for your pet! I am available mornings, nights, and weekends. Overnight care would need an advanced notice. My goal is to customize my care to fit your needs, wants, and requests. I know leaving your furry friends at home is never easy so I try my best to make that process as comfortable as possible for both pet and owner. Following your pets normal routine is my priority so they can enjoy their stay and you can enjoy your time away!
“Jake took AWESOME care of our boy while my family was out the country for 5 days. When our boy was barely eating because he missed us he went out of his way to go to the store and grab wet food to mix his food so he’ll eat. He always sent us pictures and even let us video call. We will definitely be booking with Jake again! Thank you so much again!!!!!”
“Would I book Haley again? I already have! Haley is fantastic, she went above and beyond my expectations! Haley took AMAZING care of our three senior dogs, who have special needs. One of my dogs needs to have his bladder expressed due to a spinal injury, Haley went out of her way to learn how to express his bladder and ensure his comfort. Haley gave the dogs ample outdoor time, shared photos and detailed report cards throughout the day which gave us peace of mind. You can tell when your dogs had their basic needs met vs. when they also had enrichment (play time, cuddles, etc.), my dogs clearly had enrichment with Haley taking care of them. The dogs were happy and content when we returned home, they hardly missed us! Cannot recommend Haley highly enough.”
“Kate was so good w max! I had a last minute family emergency and she was able to do a drop in visit w Maximus & walked him fed him etc! Max was super excited and loved her! She also communicated with me the entire time! Will use her again for sure! THANK YOU KATE!!!”
“Emma has been a godsend helping with my senior dog while I was out of town. She was very patient, followed detailed instructions, and genuinely concerned for Mitzi's wellbeing. 100% recommend and would book with her again.”
“Gabby was amazing! She met with me beforehand to have an initial meeting with my cat Muse to learn about her care and sent me many cute pictures of Muse while I was away! Definitely will be contacting Gabby again in the future when I need a sitter. Thank you Gabby!”
About: I’m 29 years old I have cared for animals my whole life. I know how to train your fur baby if needed. They will go on walks often. I’m currently a stay at home mom. So I’m almost always home unless I’m running to the store quick. Other than that I’m always home. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs and 1 cat at home to keep your fur baby company. I can easily create your dog for you if needed.
Military pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nick watched our cats 🐈 🐈 over the holidays. Very grateful to have someone so kind and respectful of our home checking in on them! Would definitely recommend Nick! He was very responsive and was even kind enough to water our plants 🪴 (which was a huge help).
Amanda is truly a godsend! She took wonderful care of my boys on short notice during the holidays, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent updates at every visit that made me laugh and showed how well she genuinely got to know them. Amanda is amazing, and you can absolutely trust her to provide loving, attentive care. I’m so happy to have found our future sitter!
Marine did a great job taking care of Chidi, who I know can have his behavior quirks and difficulties! She was very responsive and a pleasure to work with- I trusted that Chidi was in good hands when I had to take a last minute trip out of town. I received lots of pictures and Chidi looked like he had a great time. I would definitely have her care for Chidi again and recommend her to anyone looking for A+ cat care!
Heather has been cat sitting for us for a couple years now and her attention to detail and level of care for our cats is phenomenal. We always receive amazing daily updates with lots of pictures. We know our cats are in good hands with Heather and can enjoy our time away.
Meg was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Roscoe! She gave him so much love and attention, and I could tell she really cared about making him comfortable and happy. She was very attentive to both his needs and mine, and I appreciated how flexible she was with the changes in our schedule. I felt at ease knowing Roscoe was in such great hands. Highly recommend Meg!
Jessica was absolutely fantastic. She was prompt and on time for each visit. She came over before she was scheduled to allow us to show her where things were and how to give our cats meds. Took plenty of pictures for us to let us know our cats were okay. This was the first time we had left our cats alone since one of them was diagnosed with a congenital heart disease. The peace of mind she gave us can not be overstated. Also, she was very understanding when we had to change the schedule last minute. Thank you so much!
