“Saemi is truly the best! She’s taken such amazing care of Nugget while I’ve been away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Her attention to detail—from Nugget’s meals to his walks and overall well-being—has been 10/10. She went above and beyond, sending me regular photos and videos of Nugget that gave me so much peace of mind. It’s so clear how much she genuinely cares. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her—highly, highly recommend!”
“Lijuan went above and beyond while I was out of town during the recent fires. She brought my cat bottled water, cleaned up branches, and made sure my house was safe and secure. She will treat your pet like her own! Cannot thank her enough.”
“Natalia is the best fur baby sitter! My Rufus has anxiety when we leave, so its important that we have a trustworthy sitter. Natalia is very responsive, gives daily updates, is always on time and reliable. But more importantly our fur baby loves natalia.”
“Paul has a great demeanor with dogs and puts them at ease. He is very responsible and we felt completely confident having him walk our 2 little dogs. They were happy to see him and trotted right out after the first meeting.”
About: What started as regularly pet sitting an incredible pup named Disco for my friend during work travel, has grown into a passion for pet care and community. I understand that training your dog is not only beneficial for the owner, but helps keep your pup safe too. Building trust and a strong relationship with your dog is an honor and there is no other love that can compare. Your dog is not just a pet, but a part of your family and they deserve to be treated as such. Just like with human kids, I would engage and talk with your pup on walks and trips because they would want you to! The more you genuinely interact with a dog, the more that dog will trust you. While I specialize in cats, I love dogs to pieces and the bigger the baby, the more hugs I can deliver! I currently work part time at a pet food store and am used to interacting with dogs all day. The more notice I have for visits and care, the better. Important!: I do not have a car and use an escooter to get around. If there is a place you'd prefer me park that scooter around your home, please include that info. I will not transport your animal on that scooter for safety reasons but am willing to walk to local parks and dog runs to exercise your animal. For emergencies I am willling to call a rideshare. If your cat is trained for harness/backpack trips, I am very willing to take them out! If your pup lives within a mile of a dog wash, I'm happy to bathe them for you. I understand that as a caregiver to animals, that person should respect that animal's boundaries. If a pup/cat wants to cuddle and play immediately, I will happily do so. If a dog is more cautious, I will do my best to earn the trust needed at that pup's own pace. I use positive reinforcement for training (and keeping up your own training) while gently discouraging unwanted behavior. I am patient and mindful especially for any dog/cat with disabilities. I am a quiet and low-key person which cats and shy dogs tend to appreciate but can also play and engage with high energy animals too!
“Vicky was absolutely amazing with our furbabies! From the start, she was kind, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. She kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pets were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—Vicky truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!”
“Jackeline took such incredible care of my little one while I was away and genuinely took so much of my stress away knowing that he was in good hands. Will definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter/walker/caretaker!”
“Stephanie was great! She took the time to do a pre-meet up with me several days beforehand so she could meet Simon and learn about his schedule and needs. The day of she was prompt and sent me updates during Simon's time with her, including a cute photo. I felt very confident that Stephanie gave Simon great care and I plan to work with her again in the future.”
“We love booking with Priscilla! She is so great with both of our cats; even our shy older can who needs regular medication. On top of this, she is also an amazing pet photographer. We love her!”
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. I have deep experience with cats, including my own partially blind and deaf kitty, which has taught me the importance of patience, sensitivity, and adapting to each animal’s unique needs. I also love caring for dogs and know how to read their body language, provide calm reassurance, and match their energy—whether they need playtime or a peaceful cuddle. I bring empathy, attentiveness, and genuine love into every visit, making sure your pet feels safe, seen, and loved. I work part-time in bartending and event curation, and I’m also taking a few classes—so my schedule stays active but flexible! I’m available for daytime, evening, and weekend visits depending on the week, and I always do my best to accommodate your needs. Just reach out and we’ll find a time that works! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect I give the animals—gentle, calm, and grounded. I aim to create a peaceful environment where your pet feels at ease in their own rhythm. Whether it’s keeping routines consistent, making sure doors and gates are secure, or offering loving attention without overwhelming them, I move with intention and care. My goal is always to build trust and create comfort especially during times that to some pets are very stressful!
About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for my own pets. I'm reliable, gentle, and make sure pets feel safe, happy, and at home. I'm a college student with a flexible part-time schedule. I'm fully available Mondays and Saturdays have time throughout the week to walk, play with, and take care of your pets. When I'm house sitting, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their home. I follow All Care instructions, keep the routine, and give them plenty of love, attention, and play time. I also keep the home tidy and send regular updates to give you peace of mind while you're away.
About: I am a pet parent my self and have used this service for my dog. I know the importance of having someone you trust look after a loved family member and allow them into your home. With my first hand experience I know I want pet owners to be able to feel the same level of comfort I have knowing my fur baby is taken care of. Pet care fits into my routine pretty naturally! I work 8 to 4:30 Monday through Friday, so in the mornings I make sure to feed my pet and squeeze in a quick walk or some playtime before heading out. After work, it’s all about dinner, another walk, and some chill time together—whether that's snuggling on the couch or playing with toys. On weekends, we get even more time to hang out, which is the best! It’s a nice balance and honestly, taking care of pets is one of the highlights of my day. I care for pets like they're my own. I stick to a regular routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles.I just try to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while their people are away

I also love to bring extra water and treats (with owners permission) if we are out and about.

“Miriam was amazing! Her visits were longer than I expected so my little Manu got bonus play time. She kept me constantly posted with updates via text and pictures. Most importantly I got back to a happy kitty that didn't pee anywhere he wasn't supposed to. Will book again! Thanks, Mirian!”

Dinah V.
“I had met with Dinah because I needed a walk for my German Shepherd Ridgeback, who is 55 pounds. She met me in advance to answer any questions. I had about her care over my dog and also gave space to ask questions of about my dog so she can give the best care she could. McGinness can be a little shy with new people and has a lot of energy when on walks but the moment he met Dinah he instantly fell in love with her and wanted her affection that put me at ease. Throughout the walk, she sent pictures and videos and kept me informed and let me know about his progress after she was done. I will definitely ask for her service again when I need another walk highly recommend her..”
Cynthia D.
“I couldn’t be happier with the pet sitting experience! From the moment I arrived, I could tell that the space was **clean, well-organized, and pet-friendly**. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, making it a comfortable and safe environment for my furry friend. Not only did the sitter **follow all instructions perfectly**, but they also went above and beyond to ensure my pet felt loved and cared for. When I returned, my pet was **happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of**—a true testament to their dedication and professionalism. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for animals and provides exceptional service, I highly recommend this pet sitter! I’ll definitely be booking again in the future.”

North Central pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our favorite cat sitter, as always! We’ve booked her so many times, and she is consistently outstanding. Our cats absolutely love her, and thanks to her care, we’re able to travel and visit family without worry. Always reliable and highly professional, she takes wonderful care of our cats and keeps our home tidy, including thorough litter box cleaning. She has truly been a lifesaver for us. We can’t thank her enough. A million thanks!!
Anita is amazing! Super professional and caring, and she goes above and beyond to make sure my cat is happy. She even sent me the cutest photos for every visit, which always brighten my day. My cat is usually very shy, but she’s managed to win him over, and now they get along so well. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter - highly recommended!!
Saemi came over a couple of times while I was out all day and made sure my two dogs were taken care of. They are completely opposite—one big and super excited, and one small and timid—and she was able to adapt to each of their needs at once. I have boarded with Saemi before and I know I can be away from my pets without worry when they are with her! Thanks Saemi!
Grace is wonderful and I highly recommend her! She has been helpful with two last minute bookings and my dog loved spending time with her (the photos she sent showed how at ease he was). She was also patient when we ran into some issues with logistics. I appreciate her responsiveness, professionalism, and thoughtfulness. I would book with her again!
That’s a lovely sentiment! Here’s a polished version if you’d like to share it as a review or thank-you note: Vicky took such wonderful care of our pets—you can truly tell she loves animals. Her kindness and attention to detail gave us complete peace of mind.
So thankful we found Yesenia to care for our cat who has a chronic infection requiring oral meds twice a day. She's not the most compliant cat, but Yesenia was patient and managed to get 4 pills and a liquid med down each day! Because of her, we didn't have to board our cat and cause more distress for her, and she was able to stay in her home environment ❤️ We were also able to enjoy our travel and not worry about her. Our shy guy also seemed to warm up to her 😊 Both of our cats looked great and were happy when we got back! Thank you, Yesenia!
