“Hallie dropped in to check on Layla while I was away for a long afternoon. She sent pics of Layla and encouraged her to go outside for a little break.....however, in the 97* heat Layla didn't want to go.:-). Hallie was given some directions on how to access the house and she found everything easily. She has a kind personality and I will definitely use her the next time I need pet help.”



“Kelly was absolutely the best! She was on time, communicative, and the pups just loved her! She was quick to ask questions in advance (for example, asking us to have towels available on rainy days). We really appreciated her and will definitely rebook whenever we can.”


“Colleen took care of our three cats while we were away for a week and she did a phenomenal job. Colleen provided daily updates with pictures which meant a lot to us. Will rebook if Colleen is available whenever we travel again.”


“Emily was fantastic with our two dogs! There was even bad weather in the area during our time away and she made sure there was no damage at our home. You can tell she is truly an animal lover, detail oriented, and Goes above and beyond! Emily communicated well and shared photos of our boys. Thank you Emily for your help over the weekend!”


“Kenna did a great job taking care of our cat while we were on vacation. This was the first time we have used a pet sitter service and she really minds at ease when she came for the home visit. She sent us lots of pictures and let us know how each visit went. She was very responsive to any questions we had and she kept everything clean and in order. I would certainly recommend her and will definitely request her again for our future cat sitter needs.”


“Kerri really went above and beyond! She made sure our dogs were so well taken care of during our time away from home and made sure they had lots of affection and exercise! & she did all of this in the cold! We honestly would have been fine with her just letting them in and out and didn’t expect her to give them so much attention, but I was so glad to hear that they were getting all that affection. Thank you again so much Kerri!”


“Samantha and Max did an excellent job with our pups. We have two rescue dogs, one of which is afraid of new people. Because of this, we were concerned about leaving him for the first time with someone new. Samantha and Max assured us that they would be able to handle him and they were amazing with him. They were even able to get a leash on him to take him outside, despite his usual timid behavior. They followed our detailed instructions perfectly and were very patient and kind with our dogs. After the visit they sent several pictures so that we had peace of mind that the pups were okay. We will absolutely use them again.”


“We love Cathy! She just does all the little (and big things) for our two pups. We just got our second addition to the family a few months ago, and Cathy hadn’t met him, so on her own time, she came to spend some time with him ... a day before she was scheduled for a drop-in ... just to make our little pup felt comfortable. That’s just one of many examples of how she goes above and beyond.”


“Sierra and Greysen did an amazing job. They were very responsive, sent pictures, and wrote a detailed report every single time they went in dropped in on our two dogs. Very happy with the care that was provided. Definitely recommend them if you are looking for a dog sitter!”



“Mandy left my house cleaner than I left it. She went above and beyond when it came to taking care of my dogs and not once did I ever feel worried about them. I highly recommend her and she is definitely my go to sitter on Rover”


“Whitley was awesome! Her level of communication, positive approach to my pet, and level of care was what I was hoping for and needed as I just recently moved to the area and was very apprehensive about leaving Chance alone so soon after adopting him. She was great from the first time she responded until her last message! Will definitely reach out to her again as a first option for my little guy!”


About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for animals. I specialize in overnight care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm experienced with senior pets who need extra attention and gentle care, as well as energetic puppies that require structured routines and basic training reinforcement. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine, and I make it a priority in my schedule. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and weekends, and I plan my days around the pets I care for—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication. I maintain a calm, consistent environment to help pets feel secure, and I give updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing. I’m flexible and can adjust to meet your pet’s usual routine to keep them happy and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I create a calm, secure, and familiar environment by following your routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m always mindful of safety, keeping doors, gates, and potential hazards in check, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Building trust—with both you and your pet—is at the heart of how I care.

“Ash checked in on my dog a couple days while I was at work and she was great! She always let me know when she was on the way and sent me tons of pictures of my dog throughout her visit. I will definitely continue using her in the future!”

“Judy did a fantastic job caring for our cat girls. The one cat who required meds twice a day was ornery at first but quickly warmed up to Judy due to her love of cats and patience. She took great pictures and gave a full report after each visit. We highly recommend Judy!”


“We are first-time users of Rover, and with confidence, we will definitely be return customers. Abby looked after our boy for a week, and gave him the same loving attention that he would otherwise get if we were here! No matter the question or ask, she was very responsive and friendly. Thank you, Abby!”


About: I have been taking care of pets for our entire lives. i have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes (as well as reptiles, fish, and plants!). i have been pet-sitting for colleagues and friends for a while now as well as caring for three cats at home. i have previously cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with special needs and medication schedules. I have a fairly flexible schedule at my day job, and will coordinate around your schedule to make sure I can meet every pet's needs. I would prefer to care for pets in your home, as they're likely to be more comfortable that way (and my cats will too). However, I can make exceptions in special cases. I do prefer to have an initial meet and greet with pets and people to make sure everyone's comfortable. For house-sitting, I goal is to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible, so I will schedule my workday to be there with them as often as possible.

Northlake pet parents share their Rover experiences
MB and Lindsay were so loving and caring to our pet, Peanut. We found them to be very professional and caring. They took notes on Peanut's care and habits for future visits, which we will definitely book with them! They arrived on schedule and were very conscientious. Lovely couple and we're so happy we found them to care for our pet.

We were very satisfied with Lindsey, she took good care of our kitty while we were away. She did everything we asked her to do, and it was so nice to receive some pictures every day. We are very grateful, and we will definitely book her again next time we need a cat sitter!
