“Ann did really well and was able to control my hyper/overreactive dog. You can tell she is a dog lover and will take care of yours like her own. I’d definitely recommend her.”

“Natalie was highly recommended when our usual Rover was out of town and I am so grateful for the recommendation! She was a perfect fit our ten year old grumpy, but so loved cat Frederick!! On time, updated photos and kept him on his schedule!! 😊”

“Cynthia did an awesome job watching our three dogs. Communication was great, she sent lots of pictures and did exactly what we asked her to do. I highly recommend Cynthia if you need someone to watch your pups! We will definitely use her services again.”

“Austin was great at the meet and greet. He took notes and ask good questions. He has performed several drop ins and is learning how to work with my dogs. They can be difficult because they are afraid of new people but he is patient with them. We really appreciate his time and effort.”

“Colleen did an awesome job! She is a very good communicator and went above and beyond for my Pets! She also was great in photographing them as well! My wife and I have saved many of the pictures she took. We will rebook in the future”

“Madelyn was great with our 2 kitties. We came back from our trip to very happy and peppy cats. She was reliable, arrived when expected, and provide very cute photos from each visit. She cleaned the bowls which was very nice. This was our first time booking with Madelyn and will be sure to book with her again in the future.”

“Sharon did a great hob with my three dogs! She sent regular updates with videos, and even brought in some packages that were at the door. I highly recommend her.”
“We loved having Dorisa as a pet sitter for our two newfoundlands and egg collector for our chickens. She met with us and out pets before our next trip. She quickly responded to any inquiries or questions. We loved the Rover cards status with pictures and letting us know how the animals were doing at each visit. Thank you, Dorisa, for caring and loving on our newfies and chickies while we were gone. We look forward to our next trip knowing you'll be there to take care of them.”

About: Hi, I’m Isa! I’ve grown up around animals and have always had dogs and cats in my life, so I have plenty of experience caring for them. I’m comfortable with both and really enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s hanging out, playing, or just keeping them company. I do Rover outside of my full-time job because I love meeting new pets and it adds joy to my life :) 🌸 Outside of pet care, I like gaming, spending time outside when the weather’s nice, and being with my family. I’d love to help take care of your pet and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule can vary during the week since I do work, but I do have flexibility depending on the day and can often make time for pet care visits. I’m especially available on weekends and would be a great fit for weekend pet sitting or check-ins. During the week, I’m still available at times for things like letting dogs out, feeding cats, or stopping by for quick visits when needed. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pets are taken care of. For me, safety, trust, and a calm environment are really important when caring for pets. I like to talk with owners beforehand to learn about their pet’s personality, routines, and any specific needs so I can provide the best care possible. I really see it as taking care of someone’s family member, so I make sure I understand everything I need to know before spending time with them. When I’m with pets, I always approach them calmly and patiently so they feel safe, comfortable, and understood.
“Morgan is amazing and took such great care of my pup! She clearly loves animals and it’s refreshing to find someone on this app that is trustworthy and who cares about animals like they are her own. Definitely recommend her for peace of mind! :)”

About: I have hands on veterinary assisting experience, strong understanding of animal behavior, and my ability to care for a wide range of species not just dogs and cats. I’m comfortable supporting pets with structure and routine. I have experience caring for neonate puppies who need consistency and extra monitoring, as well as senior pets who require patience, and gentle handling. I’m also confident handling large and powerful breeds. Pet care is already a central part of my daily life. I run an online freeze-dried raw pet treat business and spend most of my time working from home or actively caring for animals. At home, I spend a great deal of time with my own dogs through structured activities like long wooded walks, socialization, and desensitization work. I also work with clients who need support with whelping and early puppy care. I provide structured, calm care with safety as the priority. Dogs are supervised during free time and I believe in crate training as a positive tool for rest and security. Feeding is done separately to respect space, followed by quiet crate time after meals to help prevent bloat. Once rested, dogs return to supervised free time.
About: Have been taking care of dogs for the last 10 years - from the most relaxed/lazy dogs to hyperactive ones. Been a dog walker at a dog shelter for the last 6 months since moving to the area. I work full time but will be able to take care of dogs after work or over the weekends. Most holidays I am available (besides thanksgiving or Christmas - traveling home) I stay attentive while taking care of any dogs, especially on walks. I try to stay away from crowded areas, mainly because I don’t know what other people or animals will do. I usually try to spend much of my time with the dog and make sure they get enough exercise when I am with them.
“Ella dropped in for cat care daily for almost 2 weeks. She is reliable and very responsive as well as attentive. Her professional approach to her job is admirable. Hope we can work together again one day. Thank you Ella.”

“Chantelle was great. She made the effort to come and meet our dogs ahead of time so they would be comfortable with each other. She took the time to actually play with them for a while when she visited them as well as feeding and making sure their physical needs were being met! We were actually able to relax and know that our ‘babies’ were happy! We would highly recommend her!”

“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my cat, going above and beyond to provide Leia with sweet cuddles during the visit. I know she appreciated the great care too!”

About: I have cared for friend's and family pets for the past 12 years, including my own. I love all dogs and care for all dogs as if they were my own. I work 6-4:30 Monday thru Thursday. I am off all weekends and Fridays and can easily make it around town to wherever you live to care for your pet. I will meet your pet where they are and keep up with any training or care you normally provide to ensure there is a seamless transition for when you return.
Normal pet parents share their Rover experiences
Andrea was great with our three boys! When we got back for an extended day trip, it was clear that they hadn’t been under any stress or anxiety - they were great! Andrea came to our home during all of their regular potty break/food times to make sure they were comfortable. We’ll definitely be working with her again!
