“Once again, we had an amazing experience having Emily take care of our two cats while we were away. Our new kitten warmed up to her immediately and she was amazing about helping to get his energy out and giving him plenty of cuddle time. We always look forward to her updates and great photos and definitely plan to utilize her help and care again in the future :)”


“Sarah was an awesome cat sitter! She sent us adorable pics, navigated food related pickiness with ease, and was overall great to work with. Most important, we had a happy cat when we got home. Highly recommended!”


“Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with my dog - and so, so communicative. My dog loved her right away! I couldn't be happier - I've already rebooked her twice.”


“Julia did a great job of taking care of my dog Louis. My house and the yard were in perfect condition when I returned. Julia provided lots of updates and even cleaned up Louis's food and water station. Will be rebooking Julia and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a walker or sitter.”


About: Hi! My name is Jasie. I am working full-time in healthcare and from home (which gives me lots of flexibility)! Animals bring me so much joy and I love meeting new ones anywhere I go. I am coming back from a break from the app, as I had some years to spend with my roommate’s two lovely cats but they’ve now moved away and I’d love to make some new neighborhood friends! Right now I will focus my business on caring for cats. I have experience with special needs dogs and cats (meds, extra food prep). When you want to spend some time away from home and don’t want to leave your animals alone or even just want some time to yourself, I would love to take care of them! I work from home so have plenty of flexibility to care on dogs and cats, especially dogs when potty time is more needed than usual. I can play with them as I take breaks from work as well! I can crate a dog or cat if needed. I am very careful and like to make sure your pets are in my view from wherever I am most of the time. If I have to leave, I’ll make sure they can’t find trouble!

“Lily did a great job caring for our two cats! They’re very shy but she was able to make a little progress. She was on time with her visits and they were very well taken care of!”


“Sure, here's a review for your Rover pet sitter: --- I had the pleasure of having Azeem as my pet sitter, and she exceeded all expectations! Taking care of my 2 cats and 3 kittens is no easy task, especially since two of them sometimes have accidents outside the litter box. Azeem handled these situations with grace and care, ensuring my home stayed clean and tidy. She went above and beyond by playing with my pets and giving them the attention they needed. Azeem also took the time to observe their eating habits and noticed which type of cat food they preferred, ensuring they were happy and well-fed. Thanks Azeem!”


About: I Have been with animals my entire life. With over 4 dogs raised and 2 cats I am fully confident with whatever comes my way. I have always been deeply into animals and used to even volunteer in my local vet clinic. I am able to care for special and senior animals too. I can clean the animal, administer medicine, etc… No challenge is too much for me. I have a very flexible schedule so don’t worry too much about that. I am busy mornings Monday-Friday for class at 8-10 but other than that I am completely free. I have a pet-friendly apartment with many pet-loving neighbors. I can follow comprehensive and difficult directions which allows me to care for special needs animals and senior animals. I have a nice neat and clean studio apartment which I have assorted so animals cannot get hurt. Your pets will be safe with me.

“Nicole was very communicative throughout the entire process! She took great care of my cats and got them to come out and play (which is tough for one of them). I'd highly recommend her and will continue to work with her to watch my cats while I'm gone. Thank you so much!”


About: My love of animals started when I was just 5 years old feeding the bunnies in my backyard. Ever since I have loved and cared for animals big and small. My neighbors, friends, and extended family members trusted me to care for their furry family members; so we bathed, ate, and had lots of fun! I now keep a basket of toys that we all can enjoy. I hope I can teach my son how to care for animals as much as I do! Im currently working as a teacher so I have time after work and on weekends to care for your furry friend! I can do weekends and some weekdays after 4pm! I love going on walks with my baby boy so a furry tag a long is always welcomed! I am in an apartment now so cozy indoor pets or walking buddies are always welcomed. The courtyard is not fenced but has plenty of green space and other pets to come along! We live next to the west rock hiking trails so I am often taking walks with my friends pets!

About: I’m here for a year and super homesick for my own pup! I’ve taken care of my dog and friends’ dogs for several years, and would love to help you with yours :) I work during the week, so I’m available for pet sitting and drop ins over the weekends. This way, you can enjoy your weekend with the peace of mind that your pet is well taken care of! I’m super organized and great at following directions, so I will help take care of your pet in any way you need. You can count on me!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs, whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a specific routine, or just providing tons of cuddles and playtime. I’m also active, so energetic pups will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time! I work from home, which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company while I work, I love having pets around—it makes my day better! My flexible schedule allows me to stick closely to their routine and be fully present for walks, feeding, and any special needs they might have. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy it. At my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play! I have a yard for fresh air and outdoor time, and I’m lucky to live near two parks—perfect for walks, exercise, and a little adventure. I keep a clean, calm environment and tailor the care to each pet’s needs, whether that’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, or providing lots of love and attention. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while they’re with me.

Tara F.
“Tara was the best cat-sitter I’ve ever had! She was so sweet and patient with my timid kitty and spent extra time keeping her company and playing with her. I was so happy to see my cat warm up to her which she rarely ever does. Tara also sent daily updates and photos which warmed my heart while I was away. I will definitely be using her any time I need a cat-sitter in the future and would highly recommend!”
