“First time leaving my senior dog alone for a week. We decided to try a sitter on Rover, and we are happy with our dog and with the care that Jessie V. put into caring for Sammi, and for the house. At 15 years old, Sammi has messes, and I am grateful for Jessie's care in caring for Sammi, and for the condition of the carpet and floors. When we saw Sammi after being away for a week, he seemed happy, well-fed, and the room smelled clean. Thanks, Jessie!”
“Words cannot fully express how grateful I am to Jiru for the incredible care she gave to my cat, Doya, while I was away. Leaving Doya for over two weeks was a huge emotional challenge for me, cause she has never before being apart for such a long time. But Jiru’s unwavering dedication and loving attention gave me peace of mind every single day! I asked her to check in on Doya every two days, and she made it with such care, ensuring her food and water were just right, keeping an eye on her litter box, and most importantly, monitoring Doya’s mood and well-being. It was clear that Jiru treated Doya like her own, and her gentle, compassionate presence helped my cat stay calm, healthy, and comforted throughout my absence. I am so deeply thankful to Jiru for her kindness and for making this difficult time so much easier on both of us. Thanks to her, I returned to find my beloved Doya happy and safe, and that means more to me than words can express.”
“Alice was very communicative while watching my two cats over a long weekend. When she came for the initial meet and greet both cats and my dog immediately took a liking to her. Definitely plan on booking Alice again in the future!”
“Amazing! Heather kept us updated each day and sent many photos. She was incredibly attentive to the kitties and gave them lots of attention and played with them every day. She even brought in mail and packages left outside our door and swept the kitty litter to keep everything tidy. Highly recommend Heather!”
About: I have had the opportunity to take care of all kinds of dogs and cats since I was 15, it brings me great joy to take them out and have a good time with them! I work nights for the Bellevue School District so I am able to care for your pets in the mornings while you might be running errands or at work. I make sure pets feel comfortable and stick to their usual routine, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I follow all care instructions closely such as feeding times, walks, playtime, and any meds while giving them plenty of attention and supervision. I also keep owners updated so they know their pet is safe and happy.
“Our two cats really liked Agata! She played with them every day, fed them and cleaned up their accidents while we were on vacation and took very good care of them. Agata was also very communicative and fast to respond.”
“We enjoyed having Teresa take care of our two kitties…we found them happy and well fed when we returned home. Thank you for taking such good care of our kitties.”
“Jackie watched our 3 little kittens while we were out of town for over a week. She sent us pictures daily and updated us on how things were going. She helped us bring in packages, clean up after the kitties' messes, and was quick to respond to all of our messages. We enjoyed working with Jackie and would definitely love to work with her again when we are out of town.”
“Our first time using Jennifer to check on our two boys. She was perfect! Great at communicating, always brought in packages, kept things clean, and the boys warmed up to her pretty quickly. And our request was pretty last minute so we're very grateful for her.”
“Scarlett did an amazing job taking care of our old lady Jelly. She followed directions thoroughly, gave her medicine on time and made sure Jelly didn't get lonely while we were gone. She's super nice, communicative and pays attention to the animal's needs. I highly recommend Scarlett (Wanqing) for your pets needs when you need to be away. Will definitely use her again for any upcoming trips!”
About: I have over 7 years of hands-on pet care experience and currently care for my own dog and two cats at home. I personally trained my puppy, so I’m comfortable with basic obedience training, leash walking, routines, crate training, and positive reinforcement. What sets me apart is that I truly understand the patience and consistency pets need to feel safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and behavior, and I treat every animal with the same care and love I give my own pets. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and run my own online business, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m usually home throughout the day, allowing me to provide consistent attention, potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship for pets. Because of my flexible routine, I can also adapt to different pets’ needs and schedules to help them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I always try to create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in their owner’s home. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. At home, pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, and a clean space to relax. Since I work from home, I’m able to be present throughout the day and provide companionship and regular care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and focus on helping pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet has different personalities and needs, so I always approach them with patience, gentleness, and care.
“Zoe is responsive, kind, observant and thoughtful. She took care of Mako, our two-year-old cat, for a week when me and my husband were out of town. While a young and healthy cat, Mako has special needs other than food, water and litter box — he needs plenty of attention and EFFECTIVE play time. Zoe took time and patience to observe and learn Mako’s likes and dislikes in playing with wand toys, tunnels, etc. She also reads cats’ languages well and builds trust with them quickly. She always fully utilizes the 30-min visits. She goes beyond finishing the basic work to communicate with us and offer play time with Mako, who was never bored for a second during her visits. Zoe even walked with Mako in our apartment building hallway to provide him with larger space for patrolling (that is per our request — I believe Zoe will follow the instruction perfectly well if you required that your cats stay strictly indoors — the fact that a cat would walk with her shows how well she builds trust with it). We look forward to working with Zoe again in the future!”
About: I have fostered dogs and cats on and off for 15 years. The last 6 years have been through R.A.S.K. I have fostered and owned all types of dogs. Don't worry if your dog has super high energy or if your puppy chews on everything. Im prepared and have plenty of experience. I'm a stay at home mom so im home all day. I do same day bookings and am flexible if you have last min changes. I have two 18 month old Lab/Husky mixes. They are 90lbs. My puppies are super friendly and very active. My house is perfect for dogs that need to burn up some energy. My son has made a ball pit for the dogs and on warmer days i fill the ball pit with water. I also have a small plastic pool for pups to play in. Dogs have access to fully fenced yard with use of dog door. They are able to come and go as they please. I do close the dog door at night. I installed anti dig guards around my fence to prevent pups from trying to dig under. My house has central air conditioning as well as portable ac units if needed. I have a live camera in the back yard. You will have 24/7 access to camera. There is an option to veiw past recored events for that day. I have motion activated lighting throughout the back yard. Pet waste is removed from yard multiple times a day. I don't use crates or kennels. If your pup feels more comfortable being crated at night you would need to bring their kennel from home. Otherwise i let the dogs sleep where they want. I have plenty of dog beds for them. Most of the time i end up with all the dogs on my king size bed. My cat is dog friendly and is an indoor/outdoor cat.
“Lindsay was wonderful with Winston. This was his first time being alone for a length of time. She was patient with him. By the second visit he was likely looking forward to visits for more than just the food. Lol. I got plenty of pics which eased my mind and brought a smile to my face. ☆☆☆☆☆”
“Xiaoxiao did an amazing job taking care of my two cats! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about their well-being. I felt completely at ease while I was away, and my cats were happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone on Rover!”
About: I may not have professional experience caring for animals, but I’ve always felt a deep connection with them. Whenever I’m around dogs, I feel an instant bond—like we’ve known each other for years. Animals seem to naturally gravitate toward me, and I think they can sense how much I care. I’m patient, gentle, and always eager to learn more about how to give pets the best care. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing with their favorite toy, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and engaged. I treat every pet like they’re my own—with kindness, love, and respect. Even though I’m new to pet sitting, I bring a lot of heart, reliability, and excitement to every opportunity. I’m confident that with time and trust, both pets and their owners will feel comfortable and happy with me I’m currently on summer break and i have nothing to do or planned until august so i hope i make a bit of money until that time so i could be set for the future and my school year I have a Nice big and fenced community park right next to my home, your babies will have the time of their lives in my humble abode, it’s small but it’s full of love and warmth!
“Mikayla was so wonderful to my kitties! She took care of their special needs with Sima and her litterbox issues. They seemed super happy when I got home from my trip ☺️ I will use Mikayla again for sure!”
Newcastle cat parents share their Rover experiences
Heather, thank you SO MUCH for watching my sweet senior girl, Stellar, and on such short notice!! Between the various medications and her bathroom behavior, she is a very needy cat and you handled it all with aplomb! She was so happy and healthy when I got back just now, and I know it’s because you took such great care of her. 5 stars is not enough for how good of a sitter you are!
Sanuthi is incredible and very reliable. We have two finicky 12 year old cats and any changes stress out Simba. She was very patient, willing to meet him within his comfort level. She kept in contact through the visits, letting me know of any issues she was seeing, willing to change the plan on the fly. Kitties were in good hands and I am so very grateful for Sanuthi!
Zheru is amazing. She truly knows how to care for and interact with cats, and my cat absolutely loves her. She is incredibly responsible, reliable, and attentive. Whenever I’m out of town, I have complete peace of mind knowing my cat is in Zheru’s care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.
Emily took such good care of our three kitties! She was thorough, communicative, responsive, and dedicated. She put so much time and care into ensuring our cats followed their routines. One cat needed medication administered, and another needed extra attention due to a recent medical event, and Emily went above and beyond for them. We are so grateful and strongly recommend Emily!
Our first time using Jennifer to check on our two boys. She was perfect! Great at communicating, always brought in packages, kept things clean, and the boys warmed up to her pretty quickly. And our request was pretty last minute so we're very grateful for her.
When we booked our latest trip, it was a no-brainer to have Zoe come back to check on our Frankie while we were away! Loved being a repeat customer of Zoe’s - she takes such good care of our kitty, and my favorite is all the incredible photos we get with every check in!
Jade is the most responsible person I’ve ever worked with. She is highly professional and truly knows how to care for animals. More importantly, she doesn’t just treat this as a job—she genuinely cares about my cats. She keeps detailed records of everything, which makes it easy for me to understand how my cats are doing each day. I would absolutely ask for her help again in the future.
We are so thrilled to have found Morgan for out two cats. Our cats are very skittish but took to Morgan right away. She plays with them and sends pics/videos of them for us. She is very easy to communicate with. We will definitely be using her whenever we need to be gone. Highly recommend her!
Annie and Terry did a great job taking care of our cat this week! They kept up a regular schedule, kept everything tidy, and followed all our instructions. It seems like they genuinely enjoy playing with cats. They sent nice pictures and even brushed our cat's teeth!
