“Emily did an amazing job looking after our kitties in our absence. She went above and beyond to meet the special needs our cats have, we will definitely book her again!”
“Lilith is an amazing pet sitter. I can relax and know my babies are in good hands while I’m away. She goes above and beyond to take care of client’s pets. 10 out of 5 stars!”
“Alison was so kind in going out of her way to do a meet-and-greet with our kitties before we left! When we got home, everyone was happy and everything was tidy. We would definitely book Alison to watch our babies again!”
“Very good experience with Liz! She was quick to respond and helped us a lot throughout the entire trip. I usually feel worried about our pets while gone for so long, but Liz made us feel good about them being cared for.”
About: I have had dogs in my home for the past 10 years. I’ve had my own personal dog for the past 5. I work at an animal hospital, so I have tons of experience with cats and dogs of all sizes. I am confident in my ability to administer medications, if needed (oral, transdermal, injectable, inhalant). I raise puppies for a service dog organization, so I have experience with puppies who are still learning. My degree is in Pre-Veterinary Medicine and I am seeking higher education. My personal pup is with me almost 24/7. I am very blessed that she is able to come to work with me. I work 4 10 hour shifts, so I’m free 3 days a week on a consistent schedule. I occasionally have family events or Puppy Club events on those days, so scheduling ahead is always appreciated. I do accept same day reservations when I’m available. I always check fencing prior to allowing a pet outside in a yard. While walking, I carry an emergency kit. I always have a backup leash and collar/training collar in my car in case a pup got to them without the parents knowledge (yes, I’ve needed them before).
“Toni was great! She sent plenty of photos and a detailed update every day. She was patient with my shy guy and let him come to her on his own time. Thanks for making my first Rover experience a good one!”
“Christa was amazing with my 2 kitties! She was very professional, communicative and shared lots of pics during her visits which put my mind at ease. I definitely recommend her and would hire again!”
“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 wonderful! She communicated about her visits every time and sent multiple pictures of my cats 🐱 I would definitely recommend her to others and will request her again in the future!”
“I highly recommend Michelle! She is absolutely amazing and incredibly attentive to detail. You can tell immediately that she genuinely loves cats, and my cat loves her too ～What really surprised me was how she went above and beyond what I expected. She anticipated needs I hadn't even thought of and took care of everything with such care. It was a wonderful surprise to come home to a happy cat and a well-cared-for home. I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful sitter!”
“You always worry when you get a new pet sitter. My regular sitter was out of town. I returned to Rover to hire Shannon and she was amazing ! I know my cats are kinda untrusting with new people ( except one of them ). Shannon followed all my instructions, gave me photo updates and my kitties & I are super happy! Would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for amazing house visits Shannon! 💕”
“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.”
“Jo was amazing with Little Bear! Communication was steady and on point! Little Bear opened up to him immediately and I see from all of the amazing videos and photos that Jo sent me on a daily basis with him and Little Bear that they hit it off really well! Down from play, to pampering, to feeding , to cleaning up after and entertaining Little Bear Jo did an amazing job and I will definitely be utilizing his services again real soon! You can tell that Jo really enjoys what he does and he is trustworthy which is a PLUS! Little Bear really enjoyed Jo, which is MOST important in my book! Jo thank you so much once again for your service for Little Bear! We found a 5-Star Sitter! You won't be disappointed with Jo!”
“Dylan was always prompt and took such great care of our babies. I could tell by his pictures and check-ins that the cats were in great hands and upon our return home they seemed so much less stressed than they typically are when we’re away. He intuitively figured out a lot of their quirks, and we appreciate his attentiveness - we’d absolutely book with Dylan again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was around 13, always watching after them, feeding them, and walking them. I’ve always lived in a household with multiple animals! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your fur babies and give them the care they need while you’re away! I’ll be sure to keep in touch with you, the owner, on certain diets or anything I should be aware of when it comes to walks!
Newport cat parents share their Rover experiences
Auntie Eve is the very best cat sitter! This was our first time leaving our cat babies outside of family and she made us feel super comfortable! We got the best daily write ups and pictures! She definitely treated them like her own! Thank you Eve for putting our minds at ease!!
Michelle has become the person I trust the most whenever I travel. She is incredibly attentive and responsible, she even noticed that my cat had unplugged the automatic feeder and immediately fixed the issue. Most importantly, my cat absolutely adores her, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter and highly recommend her.
