“Carol is a life saver! We had to be somewhere last min and no dog care. I messaged Carol early in the morning and she was able to fit me in for a drop in. She is wonderful and so calm! Will definitely use her again! Thank you, Carol!”

“Another great experience with Jeffrey! This was our first time being away for two weeks and Jeffrey took wonderful care of our cats while putting us at ease. He is very attentive to the cats' needs and made a point of coming at the same time daily for consistency. He shared at least one photo daily and provided updates. Jeffrey is kind and gentle. We are so grateful for him.”

“Laura was incredibly responsive and communicative from the start, and she was willing to take care of my dog on very short notice. My dog was well cared for and happy when I returned. I truly appreciate her flexibility and professionalism. Highly recommend!”

“Tracy was wonderful with our cat and dogs. She was loving and patient and seemed to really enjoy spending time with our pets. She was prompt, thorough, and followed my instructions exactly. I'd hire her again anytime!”

“Kerri and Harry are such amazing cat sitters! They sent plentiful pictures, videos and messages about my cats while we were away and followed instructions perfectly. Very friendly folks too!”
“Could not be happier with the care Josh put into his time with our dog, Dale. Dale can be a bit overwhelming to some guests, but Josh handled him perfectly. He sent great pictures during his visits and his communication with us was also great. We look forward to using Josh again in the future. We know Dale can’t wait to see him again!”

“Wendy did/does a fabulous job with Leda & Zenzi. Since these 2 - 1/2 sisters do not get along it's always nerve wracking for us to go away & are gated from each other through out the house/property. She is very thorough - pays attention to details and is always on time! The house looked great when we came home - dogs were happy & all food/meds/supps were given as asked. Thank you again Wendy for the great care you give our girls - it made for a relaxing vacation - Caryn & Jim”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have spent my life caring for them, including fostering in the past. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for family, friends, and neighbors, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, punctual, and committed to giving each dog the attention and exercise they need. I enjoy being outdoors and going on walks, so your dog will get plenty of activity and care. From playtime to cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m starting a sonography program this summer, so I’m looking to pick up some extra work in the meantime! I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and I’m happy to be flexible within that schedule to meet pets’ needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and routine. I ensure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-proofed, and I closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, walking, and play routines. I pay attention to individual needs and any special instructions, and of course provide plenty of love and attention, along with updates so owners feel informed and confident while they’re away.
“Carly treats my dog as she would her own. She’s patient toward my shy pup and puts in extra effort to make her comfortable. I feel very assured Layla is in great hands when I’m working and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”

“Kendyl did a great job taking care of my Princess! My dog loves her. She is responsive and respectful of my home. And understands my need for communication and feedback. 😊”


About: I had a German Shepherd for 10 years who I had spent every day with. Today I like to go for long walks and can keep up with an energetic dog. I also know how to trim claws and take care of basic things like feeding, brushing, and playing with pets. I can stay during overnight stays for long periods or come to just check in! Ive been consistently sitting on Rover since October 2024 I am usually free on weekends. I work a full time job on weekdays 2pm-10:30pm daily but Im still available for overnights during my off time and check ins earlier in the day I can check in to feed, play with, or just give attention to pets. I can also visit to give walks or be there overnight and keep them from being lonely or getting into trouble
“Peggy helped take care of our pup with a drop in visit to our house & she was absolutely wonderful!! Peggy sent us lots of pictures and updates to let us know how Athena was doing, which we loved 🧡 will definitely be reaching out to Peggy in the future!”

“Dana was fantastic! She took such good care of our cat and went above and beyond for him. We came home to a happy guy and we knew he was in good hands. Thank you for everything Dana and we will definitely reach out when we need you again. So happy we found you:)”

“Sabrina is very gentle and loving with Susu, I've never seen my cat warm up so fast to a stranger. Sabrina also does an amazing job at effortlessly giving him his required medication, offering him treat rewards, and keeping him happy by giving him enough attention through pets and play time. She's great at making Susu feel less lonely and comfortable, with the way Susu loves sitting on her lap. Will definitely contact her again for future visits!”

Laura was incredibly responsive and communicative from the start, and she was willing to take care of my dog on very short notice. My dog was well cared for and happy when I returned. I truly appreciate her flexibility and professionalism. Highly recommend!

Kayla is wonderful! She’s a warm, caring person who truly loves animals, and she really made an effort to bond with my cat (who is a sweet but very shy boy!) without overwhelming him. Kayla also did an excellent job of following detailed instructions (including setting an automatic feeder), and I really appreciated the photos and updates she provided while I was away. This was my first time using rover, and I feel so lucky to have found Kayla! I look forward to booking with her again.
