About: Hi!🫶🏼 I Would love to help care for your animals in any capacity. I have extensive experience with animals and have worked at a dog boarding kennel in the past in addition to growing up with pets. I have worked with aggressive dogs and am comfortable reading a dog’s cues to prevent escalation. I currently have a Bernese mountain dog who is always down for a play date and a cat who tolerates her antics haha. Bonus- I’m an ER nurse, far from a vet tech, but good for med admin if needed! With that, I do work 3 shifts a week(12 hours) that vary. So while my schedule can be sporadic, it can also be very open! I work full time 3 days a week and use rover sitters myself for those days. My schedule varies, but I am great for last minute needs as long as I’m not working! I try to stick to your pet’s routine and rules! I am also very good at recognizing body language/behaviors and therefore can prevent “incidents” from occurring like aggression on walks. I’m also happy to bring along my Berner for a play date if you’d like!

“We are so grateful for Sandy taking excellent care of our house and most importantly our high maintenance pets! It was obvious they were all happy and comfortable while we were away! It seems like she really got to know each of them and helped them feel safe when we weren’t there. Sandy took the time to send us detailed updates and pictures of everyone each day, which really helped us feel secure. She was an extremely respectful house guest and left the place in better shape than when she got there.”

“Erica was a wonderful pet sitter. She was sweet, courteous, intuitive to our family and home, timely, and followed all instructions without hesitation. Our fur baby was happy & well taken care of upon our arrival home. We look forward to having Erica help out in the future for overnight stays, dog walks & cuddles!”

“Miss Penny was so professional and personal right from the beginning. She took such great care of our pups and sent tons of pictures. I will absolutely ask Miss Penny to watch our doggos again, and I would recommend her to anyone confidently.”

“Christine is the best! As a first-time Rover user, going oversees, leaving a menagerie of animals...Christine put my mind at rest. She did an excellent job for of caring for each of my pets and keeping me up to date of everything by sending many precious photos. My home and plants were also very well cared full. I'm very grateful to have found her and will certainly use her again!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, from guinea pigs to large dogs. I am an animal lover and have experience from young puppies to senior kitties. I am a grad student and have flexibility during my week to check on your animals! I am also flexible by location, since I can work from home I have a lot of hands on experience with animals and follow instructions very well! I have a lot of experience dog and cat sitting and can be attuned to your pet’s individual needs

“Cody was so great - my pup was on a great vacation, with lots of attention and care. Highly recommend Cody if you need someone reliable, kind and great at communication!”

“Melanie is excellent - super communicative and attentive! She sent tons of update pics while we were gone and was on top of everything. My favorite is that she described my dog as a “lovey little meatball” and that is now my go-to description of him! It’s so apt. We will definitely use her again.”

“Kaci was great! My dogs loved her, and my two cats that don’t normally like each other cuddled up on her lap together. 🥺 so she definitely brings along good vibes. She sent lots of pictures of my babies and kept me updated with their care. Absolutely will ask her to watch them again.”

Amber P.

“Maggie is a great sitter and love that she brings he dog for our very active healer mix to run around with. She’s great at communicating throughout and send great pictures! Will definitely use her again and again”

Cynthia H.

“Trusted sitter! My senior cat is in good hands while I'm out of town.”

Courtney F.

“I had Megan stay at my home for 4 days to watch my dog. She did an amazing job, my dog might like her more now than me. Lol. I will definitely use Megan again, she is very trustworthy, she loves dogs and she is an overall great person.”

“Kieran is fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. I left my 3 dogs at home while away for a long weekend and Kieran was sure to send pictures and videos every single time they went outside or played, or anything! It was great. More importantly, one of my senior pups was terminally ill. I made Kieran aware of her condition and asked to be gentler with her. My second to last day of my trip, Kieran called and because marlee had started displaying alarming symptoms. After calling me, Marlee was rushed to the ER while I rushed back home. I cannot thank Kieran enough for taking my baby into his arms and living her on her final days. And I can’t thank Kieran enough for making sure I had time to get to my baby before she crossed the bridge.”

Kristina P.

“We loved having Mikaela watch our two papipoos! She was attentive, great with communication. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions to ensure that they got the best care for them. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

Kirsten O.

“Sheridan was great with our two dogs. She communicated and sent pictures everyday, which was great. She also helped us out immensely when we had some travel issues and needed additional nights. Would recommend 100%.”

“Justin was amazing! I’m so grateful he took such great care of my baby Nittany. She’s on multiple seizure medications, so I needed someone truly reliable to give them on time, and Justin absolutely delivered. He even kept a close eye on her sneaky ways of trying to avoid them (not surprised, lol)! I would 100% book with Justin again and recommend him to everyone on this app. Thank you, Justin!”

“Miriam did the best job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. Miriam did a great job communicating, sending photos, updates, and left our home in fantastic condition. We have a senior dog with some anxiety, and Miriam was very experienced and understanding, which truly can’t express how much that’s appreciated. Would rebook with Miriam any time and suggest you to do the same!”

Rachel C.

“Autumn was the best pet sitter! She took such wonderful care of our dog and cat - truly above and beyond! I would 100% recommend her to everyone. I definitely plan to have her watch our animals again. Thank you, Autumn!”
