Sara did an incredible job caring for Nala. She made sure she got her medication and food, as well as plenty of good conversation in. Highly recommended!

Merissa and Nick are the best pet sitters I have ever had, because they care and go above and beyond!! Besides the very helpful daily updates on my cat’s food, drink, litter box usage and general behavior, they sent me some of the greatest photos and videos of Hodge, many showing them playing with my very social fur baby. When I returned home after a 10-day trip, the house was immaculate and my mail and newspapers were neatly piled up on the kitchen counter. I knew that with Merissa and Nick my cat was getting the best care possible and was very happy, which gave me complete peace of mind to enjoy my vacation.

About: Hi everyone! I am currently in higher education, looking to spend my time away taking care of furry friends in the neighborhood. I have experience with animals going back to my first job at 14, working as a pet bather for a groomer for about 3 years. This gave me a range from working with rowdy fun labs to small and fun chihuahuas. I am very active so taking your friend on long walks is perfect for me as well. I am also fine with any different dog breed or cats. Also, no allergies for me! I love all pets large or small, cat or dog, and thank you for trusting me with an important piece of your life. Please feel free to contact me with any more information or questions you may need! I am currently working in higher education, and have some flexibility in my scheduling! Message me anytime if you have specific dates in mind as I will always try and accommodate. I have my own puppy with a fenced in yard. But I am also an active runner and hiker and am able to go on long walks as needed with your pet. I will am very willing to do a meet and greet with you to make sure I can care for your furry family member as needed.

About: I have been dog sitting dogs since I was a teenager. I have experience with many different breeds both big and small. Since I don’t have any pets of my own right now I love being able to go meet new furry friends and play with them I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I can make my own schedule based off of the needs clients may have. Depending on when your pets need care I can adjust my schedule accordingly It is my pleasure to keep your pets company while you are away. I am happy to help out with whatever is needed. I am reliable and will keep your pets company while you are away.

Natasha did a great job with our kitties! This was our first time using the Rover app and we were a little nervous about it, but Natasha sent us updates that put us at the ease (including letting us know when we had packages delivered) and we came home to happy kitties. We will definitely reach out to her the next time we need a sitter.

About: I have great experience with all types of animals in all ranges of age and necessities. I have worked at a barn as well as volunteer at my local animal shelter. I also grew up fostering puppies and kittens as young as days old. I have multiple pets of my own and they are my whole world, I treat any animal with the same level of respect. I work part time but my schedule is very flexible with an enough time in advance. I am free pretty much all day on weekends and most consistently after 3 on weekdays. However my schedule does shift and I am an early riser so I can make most other times work. I currently do not offer home services in my personal house. At a clients home I will listen to whatever instructions are given and keep everything as similar as possible for overnight and drop-in visits to help keep stress levels down for your animal.

Caiti was great! It was my first time using Rover and she made it real simple for me! She came on time both days I had her visit my cat and even left her treats which wasn't in the plan. I'm thrilled with my experience with Roger and I'll use it again thanks to her.

About: For a year, I walked my neighbor's Cavalier King Charles spaniel while she was recovering from a hip injury, until she could walk better. She and her daughter greatly appreciated my help and have said to me that their dog Cooper has been so much happier ever since he met me. I am a college student that goes to school 5 days a week from 7am to 2 pm. I can do early morning walks before 7am since I am a morning person, and I can do walks or come over after class. I am free on most weekends. I am free most of the time in the summer from June to August. I cannot bring pets into my home since I have two cats that are not very pet-friendly. But I can do all the care you need me to do at your house.

About: Trusted, Experienced Pet Care You Can Feel Good About Taking care of animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve spent years volunteering at Humane Society shelters, working hands-on with dogs and cats of all temperaments, from energetic and playful to shy and anxious. That experience taught me how to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve also rescued and raised my own pets—Bella (brown tabby), Nugget (orange tabby), and Mumble (Jack Russell Terrier from a kill shelter)—so I understand firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your animal. Over the years, I’ve gained real experience walking, feeding, and pet sitting for animals with different personalities and needs. I know how to read behavior, build trust quickly, and adjust my care to each individual pet. What sets me apart: • Calm, patient approach (great for anxious or shy pets) • Reliable, detail-oriented, and highly communicative • Experience with both dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels • Genuine passion for animal welfare and safety I treat every pet like my own—not just making sure they’re cared for, but making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. You won’t have to wonder how your pet is doing. I provide consistent updates so you always have peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone dependable, experienced, and truly invested in your pet’s well-being, I’d love to help.

About: While I’ve never had my own dog, I have many dogs in my life who I adore, and who adore me. Dogs always approach me in public because they can sense how much I love them! I’ll love your pup as if it’s my own! I'm a PA student and my schedule is different everyday. If you request something a week in advance, I should be able to arrange something! Whether your pup just needs a buddy to hang out with or needs to be fed/walked, I’m in! I’m respectful of your space and can do whatever you need, as long as detailed instructions are left for me. I will go above and beyond to care for your pet as if it’s my own.

Alison was very helpful with a short notice check in with our pups. We were out for a while and it helped knowing that someone was coming by to check in. We received pics and a video and Alison texted before she left to make sure we didn't need anything else.
