14. Tyler J.
About: I have experience caring for a variety of different household pets - currently in my care is a 5 year old ball python. I have previously cared for multiple dogs, including bully breeds. I also have experience with senior dogs, having recently rescued and rehabilitated a 130lb senior great dane/pit bull mix for the final few years of his life, as well as caring for past family dogs well into their later years. I grew up in a "more animals than people" household, so I've always been very accustomed to tending to the needs of various types of animals such as dogs, cats, rodents, and reptiles, and I understand how stressful it can be to leave them home while you're away. One thing you can guarantee I'll say just about every time I leave the house is "I wish I could text my dog." That's why I'm committed to regular communication about your pet and providing you with adorable update photos. I would be honored to be entrusted with the care of your furry (or not-so-furry) friend! I'm currently a part-time student and not working aside from pet sitting, so I have lots of time to hang out with your pet. I am unavailable for full time long-stays outside of my home, but message me and I would love to work with your needs to the best of my ability! My usual visits include a walk and/or playtime - to relieve any boredom, get their energy out, and provide exercise - a feeding if necessary, and I refresh their water at each visit. I always bring treats, and will ask about potential dietary restrictions in advance. I also like to dedicate a minimum of 20 minutes to sitting with your pet and giving them my full attention to keep them company, providing pets, brushing, or other affection. That said, I love doing my best to provide comfort to the less cuddly pets I care for as well. Some pets respond to their humans being away by seeking affection and some need their space - I will always listen to and follow your pet’s individual needs!


15. Richard W.
“Raj has taken care of my precious rescue dog for multiple weekends when I had to leave town. My dog, Neo suffers from anxiety due to trauma he experienced prior to his adoption. With this, he doesn’t do well with most people. I have tried to use other caregivers in the past and he has a hard time leaving his kennel to eat and potty. However, Raj was an exception. He showed tremendous patience/tenderness and read his behavior to care for him in a very special way. Neo absolutely loves him. He is one of the only caregivers that understands his emotions and needs. I highly recommend Raj's unmatched care for dogs of every temperament. A dog with Raj is a dog in good hands.”


16. Victoria Raquel G.

“Victoria was amazing ! My husband and I had a last minute work trip we had to take and she was super responsive and communicated so well !!!

As this was our first experience using rover I can say I was so impressed and happy to have found her !”

19. Kara C.

“Kara was so amazing with my cat Roger while I was away for a week out of state. She consistently sent photos and videos that made me feel like he was in great hands, getting the love he needed while I was away. I am so grateful for Kara being available for that week and am overly impressed with her care and attention with taking care of Roger. Thanks so much, would love to have you sit for him again!! 🙏☺️”
