“Amanda was a gem! She was so kind to extend her stay so we could go out to dinner. She is very sweet with our dog and we’’ll be sure to request her the next time we’re in NOLA!”
“We love Elizabeth! She’s great with my Great Dane and has become our regular sitter. Responsive, great with care instructions, and super reliable. :)”
“PSA: BOOK E FOR ALL YOUR PET NEEDS🗣️🔊 I cannot say enough good things about E. We will use them everytime we go on vacation. E came to our place before our trip to get a vibe of the cats, learn the home, and just understand what we needed. It was so professional and made us feel so safe and comforted to leave our cats with E. Immediately, our cats loved E! Every visit, E took so many pictures, and that really helped us on our 2 week vacation. They did everything we asked them too - they tailor their care to what you need them too. E loves all pets and we could immediately feel that. They also caught a big problem! Our AC went out while we were gone, and E let us know, and fixed it by finding the circuit box to turn it back on. That gave us peace of mind and saved us $$$$ to not have to call a HVAC guy. Overall, do yourself a favor and book E!!!🥰🥰”
“Daphne has quickly developed a lovely rapport with Oliver. She understands that he is a bit timid and has given him the time & space to warm up to her. She is reliable and always sends pictures with details of her visits. I am so lucky to have found her & will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Caitlin was an amazing cat-sitter and I will definitely be requesting her services in the future! She was very responsive through the app before and during the time I was gone. She took lots of pictures and wrote nice updates each day. I had no concerns while I was gone which is always a relief. Very thankful for her professionalism and kindness.”
“Sarah was simply fantastic with our little guys. She took excellent care of them. We couldn’t have hoped for a better experience. The pups loved spending time with her. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Jamie was perfect. Minnie took to her almost immediately. She kept me well informed and even helped with a package that was delivered while I was out of town. I’ll absolutely book with Jamie again if i find myself out of town for a long period.”
“Jailah was incredible! She helped me when I made several errors making my first booking. She sent great pics and was great with the dogs! Definitely will book again:).”
“Alaina has taken care of our elderly cat multiple times now. She has excellent communication before and during the sit. She follows all the instructions. Most importantly our cat is comfortable enough with her to get brushed. He never has mats, which has been a problem with past sitters. I’m so grateful for Alaina!”
“Margarida did a great job with both my cats, she took her time with them while they eased into meeting someone new. She sent detailed updates and a lot of pictures/videos. They were both in great spirits even after us being gone 5 days. Would definitely book again.”
“Loren takes great care of my boy and gives detailed reports about how the walk went, which is great for an anxious pet parent like me! 10/10 will hire again!”
“Hanna is amazing! This is the second time she’s watched our cat and we had some curveballs this time with my cat getting sick. Hanna rolled with the punches and monitored our cat more than normal and even arranged her schedule to take her to the vet. She is super reliable and communicative and our cat loves her! Would absolutely recommend and will be booking her for any future trips!”
“Ashley has been such a great and understanding sitter. We have one shelter pup who is very skittish, and Ashley takes the time to make sure she’s comfortable and well taken care of. She has fabulous communication and keeps us updated anytime she checks-in on our dogs. Wouldn’t trust anyone else!”
“Elizabeth dog sat for me, and my little dog loved her!! Elizabeth was responsive and accommodating and did a great job. My dog came back happy and healthy. I highly recommend her!”
“Robin took great care of Sukho! We’ve used her before, and she always goes out of her way to take care of our house too. We appreciate Robin and we will definitely reach out to her next time we travel!”
About: I have a passion for all animals, but especially those of the furry variety. My dogs were never treated as just pets, but as part of a family. I know how much your pet means to you and intend to treat them with the utmost respect and care. I am experienced with small to large breed dogs. I will happily accommodate any specials needs such as medication and specific training. I am available for dog walking, drop in visits, and boarding. I currently have no cats or dogs in the house. Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns. I am currently working from home, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. I am usually only away for short errands. I have a large fenced in yard where your pet will have plenty of room to stretch their legs. We have so much room for activities!
About: I have many years of experience working in the animal industry, not only from managing dog daycare and boarding facilities, but also managing a therapeutic management company for animal healthcare- specializing in PCR molecular diagnostics for all animals. Please note that I primarily offer 1:1 bookings, caring for only one family’s pets at a time to ensure they receive my full attention. However, during peak periods such as holidays, I may accommodate multiple families simultaneously. Please also note that Rover takes 20% from me for each stay. If your pet requires an exclusive, one-on-one environment, I am more than happy to honor that — I simply ask that you communicate any specific needs or concerns prior to booking. Transparency helps me provide the best and safest care possible for every pet in my home. During your pet’s stay, activities may include walks, outings to City Park, enrichment toys, treats, brush-outs with pet-safe perfume, kitty pool time, thorough cleaning of bowls and scoops, and multiple photo updates each day. If you would like to decline any of these services for any reason, please let me know in advance. Please note that not all pets will participate in every activity each day, as daily routines are customized based on your dog’s personality and needs. (All dogs get brushed out, perfume, bowls cleaned, and photos for every stay unless stated otherwise.) I’m a full time Rover employee, willing to accommodate time changes last minute, have dogs extend their stay with no problem, and ensure the health and safety of your beloved pet 100% of the time. 🐶🤘 Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or administering any special care they need, I prioritize their well-being. I also plan my schedule to allow flexibility for pet sitting, ensuring I can accommodate different needs, whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-ins I have a fully fenced yard and a friendly fur baby to keep your pup company! There are plenty of enrichment toys to keep them busy, along with natural, tasty treats for some extra tail wags. It’s definitely a dog’s world in this household!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats most of my life, and have experience caring for mammals of all kinds. I would be honored to take care of your pet! I work a flexible schedule that allows me 3 days off and the ability to cover a variety of needs. I always aim to adhere to your pet’s schedule so they can remain in their routine. I enjoy building positive rapport with each animal so that they enjoy their sitter and can continue to flourish with the activities and routine they enjoy.

Jamie was a great cat-sitter while we were out of down for a few days. She made sure to give him lots of playtime and updated us on how he was doing. The pictures we got were out of this world and we were so happy to have such good care taken of our furry friend.
Hanna is amazing! This is the second time she’s watched our cat and we had some curveballs this time with my cat getting sick. Hanna rolled with the punches and monitored our cat more than normal and even arranged her schedule to take her to the vet. She is super reliable and communicative and our cat loves her! Would absolutely recommend and will be booking her for any future trips!
Caitlin was great! My mind was at peace knowing she was taking good care of my furry babies while I was away. I enjoyed getting pictures and a summary of her time with them. I appreciated her trying and succeeding in connecting with my very shy cat. I know my puppy liked her too!
Allegra did a wonderful job with our Winnie girl! Her updates were thorough, and we really enjoyed all of the pictures she took while we were away. This was such a great alternative to a doggie daycare as Winnie got to stay in her same familiar space. We will be using her again in the future! Thank you so much!!
Alaina was our first cat sitter and I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was also extremely anxious about leaving my babies. By end of the first day my anxiety had mostly melted away and I was able to focus on our trip. Alaina’s check-ins were thorough and her pictures were comforting. I will definitely book with Alaina again in the future.
Loren is fantastic! She did drop by visits with my two high energy pities. They can’t do walks in the summer due to medication they’re on, so they need playtime in the backyard for their exercise. She was great, played with them and then spent some snuggle time with them during the visits. My two pups are big fans! I have a lot of anxiety when I leave my dogs, but it was clear that Loren is an animal lover, and she gave my babies tons of attention.
Ashley was very professional and kept us updated every day. I appreciated the daily pictures, updates, and kind feedback, as well as her administering her insulin twice daily. I would definitely want Ashley to sit for us the next time we have to go out of town.
Samantha is excellent! It was my first time leaving cats for a week and Samantha made it easy for me to be away and not worry. She gave updates twice a day with photos, and patiently answered my text questions. Samantha went above and beyond the required. Great communication skills. Reliable, responsible, and flexible. I highly recommend Samantha!
Enjoying our vacation was easy knowing our baby was in the very capable hands of Camille! She goes above and beyond to make sure our finicky kitty is comfortable, happy, & well taken care of. She’s incredibly professional & the communication is top tier, which is just what we look for in a pet sitter. Our baby boy isn’t always the sweetest to strangers, so we were elated to see how well he got along with Camille. She has a way with animals. We travel often and haven’t lived in the area for long, so we didn’t have any other option than Rover. Our first booking was scary, but we got sooo lucky with Camille. We still feel guilty having to leave behind our baby, but knowing he’s in more than capable hands takes away some of that stress. I would give you 10 stars if I could!
Nikki was wonderful! She was professional, on time for all drop ins, great with using the Rover card and adding pictures of my dog. Nikki even noticed that my senior dog was having some anxiety due to fireworks and gave him his anxiety meds and replaced his potty pads. Highly recommend- will reach out to her again for pet sitting!
