“We are SO happy with the job Kara did! She did a fantastic job. We loved all the pictures, updates, questions and everything. She was on top of it and she asked great questions. We really appreciate the work she did. This was our first time using Rover and meeting with Kara, I knew right away we could trust her with our animals. She’s awesome! Highly recommend! Our cats loved her. Also, our one cat Umbreon is a bit timid around strangers but he LOVED her right away. Five stars!”
“I W3S VERY nervous about leaving my dogs in the care of someone as well as allowing someone into my house while I was not there. My dogs immediately came up to her during our meet and greet. She took great care of my dogs while I was away. She sent tons of pictures and she responded quickly to any messages that I sent. She left my dogs and house in perfect shape. I will definitely rebook when I go out of town again! Thank you again Toni!”
“Courtney was awesome! Caring, attentive and right on time. Our pup loved her and It was just what he needed to get out of the house and explore in the middle of the day! Thank you Courtney!”
About: As a pet caregiver, I focus on more than just feeding and walking—I build trust, comfort, and real connection with every animal I care for. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routines, and needs, offering personalized attention. Whether it’s extra playtime, gentle reassurance, or thoughtful updates to keep you in the loop, I treat every pet as if they’re my own. With me, your pet receives consistent, one-on-one care and genuine love—giving you peace of mind every time you’re away. I’ve had all types of animals growing up and would bring home all the strays. I currently work as a daycare teacher and get done at 2pm go home and let my own dogs out and then im ready to meet your loving animals you can book me from 3pm till 10pm I have a fenced in big backyard the dogs have plenty of room to run and have fun, play and use the bathroom as many times they need.
“Adriene was AMAZING with our two dogs, Chole and Luna! She gave them such love and attention. She communicated with us while we were away. This made us feel so comfortable. We knew they girls were being well cared for. We highly recommed Adriene!”
“Stephanie was my first pet sitter with Rover, and I was really apprehensive about leaving my cat for 2 weeks. Stephanie not only went above and beyond to reassure me, but she was flexible with the booking and checking on my house while I was away. She provided detailed updates with plenty of pictures, followed all instructions, and exceeded expectations. My normally skittish cat took to Stephanie immediately, which I know had to do with Stephanie, because she didn’t come out for anyone else that stopped by the house. I had a wonderful experience, and would definitely request Stephanie for any future pet sitting needs.”
About: I’m a devout animal lover with three dogs of my own including a senior and one cat. My dogs range in age from 5-11 and weights of 11lbs to 55lbs. My cat is 7 years old and a tabby. I will care for your pet like its my own. I work remote but I’m available in the morning, some afternoons, evenings and weekends for drop-ins, walks, etc. I understand that you may have urgent needs to so I can adjust my schedule (where available) to accommodate. I always check the outside first when I’m doing a drop in to make sure its safe for the dog to go out. With cats, I like to sit with them for a bit to give them a chance to feel me out before I feed them. If we’re walking, I will find out from the owner what are the suggested routes so that the dog feels comfortable.
“Joseph was very professional and fully capable of caring for my precious Pittie in my absence. I was very worried at first as this was my first time but Joseph made sure to send me updates (pictures & videos) to keep me in the loop during time of care. I would highly recommend his services and will be utilizing his services as well in the future. My dog bonded with him very early on which made it much easier for all of us. Kudos Joseph!”
“Jeannette took so much time to care for Kingsley, our older dog. He was happy to see her, and she gave us great updates on his care while we were out of town. Jeannette was clearly patient and so kind to our boy. Thank you!!”
“Sarah came highly recommended from our old sitter who is leaving town. She is kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Our dog felt comfortable and happy right away, which gave us total peace of mind at meet and greet. Such a nice, trustworthy person—we’d absolutely book her again.”
“Christa was wonderful! She takes pet care very seriously and constantly kept us updated on how our cat was doing while we were out of town with pictures and check-ins about his behavior. 10/10 will hire again. ?”
“Elise arrived right on time and gave lots of attention to my two dogs, who were both depressed because I left them. Usually they won’t eat or go out, they just sulk, but she cuddled them and managed to get them to eat and go out. They were ecstatic when we got home and we found no messes. Thank you, Elise!”
“Jordana connected with my kitty right away and took great care of her. She is very dependable, takes great pictures to share with me and handles the feeding, playing and litter box with love. Highly recommend her for your pet care!”
“Alexandra is amazing. It is so obvious that she is an animal lover. We felt confident in leaving her with our animals and trusted her completely in our home. Alexandra sent photos and updated us often. We came home to happy fur babies. We will definitely be reaching out to Alexandria in the future and you should too.”
“Highly recommend Michelle! She’s basically family now, like a cool aunt to Niangao. She is so attentive to his needs, and my cat completely loves her. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in her hands. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Catalina was outstanding. There was a problem with the lock and she went way above and beyond in working through it with me from long distance until we got it solved. I couldn't recommend Catalina more highly.”
“Shanisa has both boarded my dogs and did a drop in when I was late for a dinner. She is reliable and makes sure to center the comfort of my pups. She understands that my dogs are my world and treats them well.”
Newport cat parents share their Rover experiences
Тогда просто заменим имя: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We are extremely happy with the care Toni provided for our dog and cat while we were away. From the photos and updates she sent, it was clear that both of our pets felt comfortable and safe with her. Our dog looked happy and relaxed, and what impressed us the most was our cat. She is usually very shy and does not let anyone pet her, but she trusted Toni and even allowed her to pet her. That alone says a lot about the kindness, patience, and genuine connection Toni has with animals. Throughout our entire vacation, we felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such good hands. Finding someone you can truly trust with your animals and your home is incredibly important, and Toni gave us that peace of mind. We are very grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Toni! ❤️🐶🐱 Tatiana & Nikita
Carmen is phenomenal! She is communicative, timely, and thoughtful during her visits. One of my kitties is very shy and hides whenever new people arrive. She was patient and sat with her until she came out for some love. Another one of the cats needed medicine for anxiety and she was able to give him his meds without any issue. Our dog loves her as well and is always so excited to see her. I’m so glad we found Carmen!
