“Katharine was very kind and lovely to work with! She was responsive and took great care of my older cat, including administering oral medication during each visit. My cat has some health issues and doesn't always eat a lot of food, and Katharine made sure to be communicative about how she was doing/how much she was eating while I was gone. Will definitely be working with Katharine again!”
“This was my first time using a professional car sitter. I was very nervous about it. When I first met Annabella, my mind was put to ease. She is very sweet and has a calm and gentle personality. I have 4 cats. One is a diabetic and needs insulin injections. Annabella did an excellent job checking on them, feeding them, and taking care of the litter box. I am so happy and relieved to know that I can call her again the next time I go out of town.”
About: I absolutely love dogs and have taken care of them almost my entire life. Some of the rarest breeds I have worked with include Native American Indian dogs, Norwegian Elkhounds and a feisty French poodle named “Peaches” As a struggling comedian/actor, I have plenty of spare time during the day. When the sun goes down, it gets a bit more hit or miss. I’m always very attentive to Animal needs as well as the condition of their environment. As a lifelong dog owner, I know the last thing anyone wants is their pet chewing or clawing something that definitely isn’t a toy.
About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember — caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. From growing up with family pets to regularly helping friends, family, and coworkers with their dogs, I’ve built a strong reputation as a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. People consistently rely on me because they know I treat every dog like my own, with lots of love, patience, and care. What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments — from playful puppies who need consistency and training to senior dogs who require gentler routines and extra attention. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs, and I always prioritize their comfort and well-being. I’m also dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of each pet parent’s routines and expectations. Pet care is now a meaningful and intentional part of my daily routine. I’m currently in between jobs after spending the last decade working in entertainment PR and marketing, and I’m using this time to focus on something that has always brought me joy — being around dogs. I’ve always loved caring for them, and now I finally have the flexibility to fully dedicate my time to helping dog owners who need reliable, loving support for their furry family members. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, pet care is something I look forward to every day. When caring for dogs in my clients’ homes, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment for the dog. I take the time to build a connection so the dog feels at ease around me, whether it's through gentle interaction, play, or simply respecting their space. I follow the owner's instructions carefully and consistently, ensuring routines, feeding, exercise, and any special needs are met exactly as directed. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care so both the dog and owner feel confident and relaxed while they're apart.
“Jenn is amazing! I am so relieved I found someone trust worthy like her, my little kitty absolutely loved her. She’s very communicative and sent me the cutest pictures while I was away. I can only recommend her ! Thank you again Jenn ❤️ Now you’re stuck with me for a while ! 😂”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since before I could tie my own shoes. I’ve been lucky enough to share my home with a Golden Retriever, Rottweiler, Bullmastiff, and Husky, so I’m no stranger to big, strong, and spirited pups.

I’m ready for belly rubs, fetch sessions, and all the tail wags in between. When you book me, your dog isn’t just getting a walker—they’re getting a genuine friend.

“Samantha is awesome! I have specific instructions for how to feed my cats and some people gets confused but she followed everything and was perfect! She is so gentle with cats and I can tell that she loves cats. I tend to worry a lot but I was worry-free with her! I didn’t have to be watching on my camera because she was confident that there will be no problem and there wasn’t! I would totally ask her to pet sit again and recommend Samantha as your pet-sitter!”

Arthur & Hayley O.
“Hello Rover Team! I’m so happy to be able to talk about Arthur and Hayley! Arthur and his wife Hayley are incredible fosters. They’ve taken in over ten dogs, many of them scared, unsure of people, and needing a lot of extra love and care. These aren’t easy dogs—but Arthur and Hayley have a real gift for helping them feel safe and help them to come out of their shells. Arthur is especially great at picking up on each dog’s personality and knowing when something seems off. He can spot nervous behavior before it turns into something more serious, which helps prevent issues and keeps everyone safe. It’s clear he really understands dogs and takes the time to listen to what they’re telling him. Their home is a calm, structured space where dogs get what they need: plenty of food and water, regular walks, and lots of patience. Dogs eat and sleep separately, which helps keep things peaceful. It’s not just a temporary stop—it’s a place where dogs can relax, decompress, and start to trust again. Best of all, the dogs get a fun and playful home that engages and keeps them both physically and mentally stimulated. Arthur also stays on top of each dog’s medical needs. He gives meds, keeps up with vet visits, and makes sure they’re healthy and comfortable. He and Hayley treat every foster like they’re part of the family. If a dog ends up in Arthur and Hayley’s care, they’re in seriously good hands. They go above and beyond, and it shows in how much happier and healthier their foster dogs become. I whole heartedly recommend Arthur and Hayley for your foster program! Kind Regards, Magna Bahm”

Carolina H.
“Carolina took such amazing care of my Sphynx cat while I was away, and anyone who has one knows how particular their care can be. From regular grooming to skincare and keeping her warm and comfy, Carolina handled it all with so much attention and care. My cat isn’t the easiest to win over, but she absolutely adored Carolina. I really appreciated the thoughtful updates and knowing my girl was in the best hands. If you have a high maintenance or special-needs pet, trust me, Carolina is the one to call.”
Chelcie Ferreira De A.
“Chelcie is AMAZING with pets. He loves animals so much, he has four cats of his own and a dog. One of his cats came from an abusive past, and Chelcie took her in and rehabilitated her to be such a trusting and friendly cat. He also took in a dog with a range of healthcare issues, and Chelcie has been so patient with the dog’s needs. I would trust him with my pets in a heartbeat. He’s your go to guy!”
Paula B.
“Paula was very reliable and made it super convenient to do a drop in on such short notice. She is super nice & highly recommend her services!”

“Mario is absolutely fantastic. My pet always come back happy and well-exercised and I appreciate regular updates and photos. Can’t recommend him enough! Thank you again.”

Skyler was a lifesaver...we made arrangements for a sitter before our travels but they fell through. We contacted Skyler and she was more than willing in to help out. She took excellent care of our two fur babies (cats), they fell in love with her. We will most definitely be booking with Skyler again, soon.
Jayline was great! She asked really good questions during our meet and greet that made me feel really confident that she would take good care of my kitties. I loved all of the photos she shared from her visits, she brought in some mail and packages for us, and the cats did seem to enjoy having her take care of them! 100% would use her again!
Lauren was amazing! She made leaving our little guy so much easier. She kept the place super clean, litter, food and all. She showed a clear love for animals, spending quality time playing, cuddling and sending precious photos of our buddy, who was comfortable and happy. Lauren was easy to coordinate with, followed instructions and made the whole booking process a breeze. We’d highly recommend her to look after your special furry friends!
Brenda was wonderful! Our cat was well taken care of during our time away. She sent pictures every day so we could see how he was doing. When we returned home, we could tell he missed us but could also tell that he was well taken care of. I would definitely hire her again.
