“This was our first time using rover and let us just say: Larry was AMAZING!! From the very beginning up until his last visit, he was very accommodating and communicative - responded to every message and sent daily updates with pictures! He went above and beyond to take extra care of our dogs and home. Will be booking again and again!! THANK YOU, LARRY!”


“Grace was amazing! Our previous sitter dropped out last minute, Grace was available and responsive and we were able to get everything sorted 2 days before we left. She even got our shyest cat out and about and made sure to send plenty of action shots of the cats playing!”


“Grace was awesome with Ares! He had a blast with her and she communicated well throughout the whole process. She’s very flexible too and will work to your convenience. 10/10 would recommend!”


“For my first experience with this app, Tyler has exceeded my expectations. Very respectful and kind person who genuinely cares about your pet. Tyler took care of our dog as if it was his and I’m truly grateful for his service. 10/10 recommend! Thank you Tyler!”


“Jordan was absolutely amazing while we were on vacation! She did drop-in visits for our dogs, Bunnie and Rudy, and kept us updated every single time her communication was excellent. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our dogs were in good hands. On top of that, she made sure everything was clean and tidy before we got back, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be booking with her again”


“Brendan was amazing with our dog. When he says “your dogs new friend”, he is not lying. Blu really took to him and loved him. We are thankful we finally found someone we can trust with our dog.”


“Geneive was absolutely amazing with King. From the time we did meet and greet, she was very professional and treated king as if he was her own. Will definitely be using services again”


“Julie is fabulous! I am so very happy to have found her on Rover! I wanted someone who knew cats, who lived nearby, who did not charge an arm and a leg, who had a reasonable cancellation policy, and, of course, who was responsible. Well, I won the lottery with Julie! Yes, I did! Julie is fabulous, absolutely FABULOUS! From the very start (and throughout the entire time), Julie was fast to respond to my requests, my questions, my texts, etc. It was clear that she wanted to ensure we were on the same page, from the beginning, and that we remained on the same page throughout. Outstanding! And, since my schedule often changes, sometimes at the very last minute, her reasonable cancellation policy will not cause me to hesitate to enlist her services again and again. And, since my cat pretty much goes into hiding whenever I am away, caring for my cat becomes simple, easy, and quick - clean the litterbox, provide fresh food and water, then depart. Well, it was here that Julie went the extra mile. Julie washed out the food containers I use to store my cat's wet food, yet I had not asked her to do that! How very thoughtful and generous! Thank you so much, Julie! Thank you for being a FABULOUS cat sitter!”


“Jacqueline was wonderful-reliable, had great communication, and most of all my cats really took to her. You can tell she is an animal lover. I highly recommend her and would book her again!!”


About: I've cared for all the pets in my family since I can remember and studied animal behaviors since 1st grade along with learning training methods that build trust and respect between pets and handlers. I can handle puppies to seniors and have never met an animal that doesn't like me. I finished a master dog trainer course just to better understand how to take care and train dogs. I'm constantly learning new ways of training and teaching pets since they're all different! I have a schedule set for my pets and follow it while knowing mistakes will happen from time to time. I just finished a dog training school so I can taking care of dogs is a daily thing for me. I treat pets like humans, respect their wants and needs, listen to what they have to say, and set proper boundaries. Building trust with a pet or any animal will always be my first step to care for them.

“We hired Kylie to take care of our babies for 10 days and I couldn’t be more pleased. I was very nervous as this was the first time leaving them in the hands of someone else for so long. She gave constant updates and took care of my babies just as she said she would. She was in constant communication and everything went smooth. She has no problem giving me pictures and updates. I will happily use her again in the future. If you’re looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, friendly sitter — Kylie is the one. Can’t thank her enough!”


About: I've owned pets my entire life and have been caring for my family and friends pets for 5 years. I love them as my own and ensure they get the quality of care and attention they need. I've walked, fed, bathed, and house sat for owners and their animals of every shape and size. I love getting to know each animal's personality and be-friending each animal I care for. I work in the evenings at 4 so during the day I'm available to walk and care for your pet anytime before then. On my days off, I'm available to walk and do whatever care is needed for your pet all day. Given proper notice for house sitting or caring for your animal, I will requests days off. My schedule is flexible and my days off change but I am willing to shift my schedule around to accommodate your needs. I am more able to move things around if you let me know a week or two ahead of time for times you may need me all day or for house sitting and would like me at the house all day. Communication is key, so let me know what is needed and when and I will quickly respond letting you know if I'm available and can shift my schedule or not. I will ensure your pets are cared for the same way you care for them. By this I mean I will feed and walk them at the proper times as well as give them attention and play with them as much as as possible. I cannot have pets in my own apartment but whatever routine and rules you have in your home I will honor and abide by.

I cannot say enough good things about Jessica - she was a superstar sitter for out kitties this past booking. Our daughter was having a baby in Massachusetts, and we needed Jessica to be flexible about the booking because babies do not come as scheduled! She totally worked with us and was great about our flexible timeline. The girls and the house were well taken care of, and it was one less thing to worry about.

Ashlee kept in touch with us daily over the week that we were away. We came home to three happy healthy cats, a clean litter box and my plants were all in great shape. Ashlee did an excellent job for us. We and our kitties are grateful for her service! I’d highly recommend her.

Bonnie did an amazing job at watching my babies! She always came on time and did so well with them and took the best care of them. She updated me constantly and sent pictures and made sure I knew they were having a good time. She is so sweet and sooo good with animals I would choose her time and time again she is the best!! ❤️
