“Can’t say enough good things about Caitlynn! She was super flexible with some last minute travel plan changes we had and took extra good care of our girl. Thanks for treating her like your own!”
About: Hello, my name is Atticus! I worked at a doggy daycare for over a year, have been pet and house sitting for neighbors and friends for over 3 years, and have been walking dogs since I was a kid. I have 5 pets (one dog, three cats, and one snake) of my own, making me well versed in caring for a variety of animals. I work a sporadically scheduled contracted job 1 to 3 Saturdays a month that I'm very committed to. However, these jobs have never gotten in the way of my care towards my own animals and the animals I have pet sat for. I don't pet sit in my own home, as I can't be sure that my animals will 100% get along with a client's animal. I have slept over in guest rooms of the houses I have spent over night in, as well as having only been in the house with the pets during the day, all per the client's request. Whatever one's house looks like or whatever features one's house may have, I am always sure to respect boundaries, clean up after myself, and make sure the house is left looking better than when I arrived.
“Natasha is a dream come true! I just moved to Boise and had to leave again two weeks later to a wedding, barely giving time for my kitties to acclimate to their new home. Natasha came in and loved on them just as much as I would have, relieving their anxieties and helping them continue to groove into their new house. She is kind and patient and a dream to work with. I’ve found my new cat sitter!!!”
“Liz and Anna were great with my pups while I was away for a few days. They had great communication and provided updates and photos which helped me be able to enjoy my time away without anxiety and worry. I highly recommend them.”
“Annemarie did an amazing job looking after Cricket. Cricket historically has not warmed up to Pet Sitters, however Annemarie is now Cricket's new best friend. Setting in her lap, receiving brushings and wanting to play, this we have never seen before. We highly recommend Annemarie for your pets as she is compassionate and great communicator. We got pictures and updates daily while in Europe. Hard to believe the change in Cricket, this is a first!”
“Adesa did some drop in visits for our dogs and she was wonderful. She took great care of both dogs, one who is a senior and the other who takes awhile to warm up to new people. She was also very communicative, which I appreciated. Looking forward to booking with her again in the future!”
“Brianna was great! We needed help with our 2 dogs last minute. She made time to come meet us & our dogs and it was obvious she is comfortable with dogs - they all were great together.”
“Sharene did a great job! Helped us out last minute and took care of Freckles very well. Freckles is a senior dog who is a lil nervous at time but she was great with Sharene.”
About: I've had dogs all my life and im always the one who gets put on puppy duty when we get one. When I lived in ohio I was a daytime/overnight dog sitter for many different people. I would watch their dogs for oay and if they had cats that was just a bonus for me free of charge because I just live them. Im.now looking to get back into dog sitting and dog walking. Im currently unemployed and would like to do this as much as possible so I have very open unavailability. Im also ok with working weekends. Im always with the animals if the animals allow it of course, I will always strive to give the best care to each animals and suit their needs.
“Jennifer made me feel at ease while I was away. When I returned, I came home to a happy and relaxed dog. Great personality and communication skills. I would rebook with Jennifer in a heartbeat!”
“Kelsey was so great with my kitty. She took such good care of her and spent much quality time with her such that when I got back it was like I never left. Totally recommend her services.”
About: We’ve been dedicated and compassionate lifelong pet owners with over 30 years’ experience pet sitting. This has provided us hands-on, real-life experience caring for animals through every stage of life—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. We understand that pets are family, and treat every animal in our care with the same patience, attentiveness, and love we give our own. What sets us apart from other sitters is our personal, individualized approach. We take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort needs so they feel safe and secure while you’re away. We’re calm, observant, and reliable, which helps us quickly recognize changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels. Special Skills & Care Experience • Puppy care & basic training support (house-training routines, leash manners, positive reinforcement) • Senior pet care, including slower-paced walks, mobility assistance, and medication reminders (as instructed) • Experience with anxiety-prone or shy pets • Maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and enrichment activities • Clear communication with pet parents, including regular updates and photos We believe trust, consistency, and kindness are the foundation of great pet care. Our goal is to provide an stress-free experience for both pets and their humans—so you can relax knowing your pet is in capable, loving hands. As stay-at-home pet parents, we have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows us to provide attentive, hands-on care throughout the day. We’re home most of the time, which means pets in our care are rarely left alone and can enjoy regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. This availability also allows us to closely monitor behavior, comfort, and routines, ensuring each pet receives personalized care and plenty of love and attention. Safety, trust, and comfort are our top priorities in every pet care setting. Whether caring for pets in our home or in a client’s home, we follow each pet’s routine closely to maintain a familiar and stress-free environment. We ensure all spaces are clean, secure, and free of hazards, and carefully supervise pets during play, feeding, and walks. We respect household rules, use leashes and safety protocols at all times, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health. Our goal is to create a calm, trustworthy environment where pets feel safe, cared for, and at ease while their owners are away.
About: I am primarily on this app to be of service to our dog training clients when they go out of town. I am sometimes available to take other pets, but not always. I understand that each animal has their own personality and quirks. I am able to care for pets of any age. I have experience administering medications as well. I work full time at a dog training facility. I spend most of my free time taking care of animals. I am able to bring pups to work with me during the day, so I can potty and let them run around on my breaks throughout the day. I will either bring your pup to my house or go to yours! Whatever your preference is. I do have two dogs of my own, both are friendly to all different types of pets. We also have a cat, so my dogs know how to behave around them (not chasing, bothering, etc.) As I mentioned above, I work at a training facility and will be able to bring your pup to work with me instead of them being home alone during the day. I have lots of experience crate training dogs, and can help continue or start that training for you.
“Courtney makes quick friends with the fur babies and brings treats for an instant positive experience. She’s super sweet with the pups with regular updates. Can’t go wrong! Highly recommend!!”
Northwest pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were lucky to find Tara available on a popular holiday weekend. I was anxious about leaving the house as we are in the early stages of acclimating new cat Marty to our home already occupied by an established cat...diva Maggie. Tara took exceptional care of them both...providing detailed and humorous narrative reports every day - complete with photos worthy of a professional pet portrait photographer. Tara's communication skills leading up to the visit - and throughout her service - were outstanding. We were completely at ease putting our home, Maggie, and Marty in Tara's capable hands....and we will definitely hire her again.
We were so lucky to have found Germaine while she has availability. I was nervous to leave my golden retriever, Daisy, with someone I didn’t know since she is my whole world. Germaine was so good with Daisy from the get go and it immediately but all my worries to rest. Germaine is kind, friendly, always on time, consistent, and will write great notes and send photos of the visit which I love to read/see while I’m at work. Most importantly, Daisy absolutely loves her. It’s honestly the best situation, I have no worries since I know she is well cared for while I’m at work. 10/10 would recommend.
Caitlynn was available short notice, which saved me! She also was willing to come meet so we could talk and make sure it was a good fit! She was calm and very loving torwards Tripp and left great details about their time together. I will definitely reach out if I need her again. Thank you Caitlynn!
Humm, I thought I already did a review, but I’m getting notice again to do it. Kelcy did a great job with my 12yo cat. Betty Jo was well cared for and Kelcy did everything asked of her. She also takes wonderful pictures! I now have some great shots of Betty Jo. I would not hesitate to hire her again.
I was really nervous about hiring a stranger to come in and to care for my 2 cats, but joleene completely put me at ease. She shows up on time and is very much an animal lover. She followed all of the routines that I told her that my cats like. I would definitely recommend her to care for your fur babies!
Kam was so sweet and kind with my two cats. It was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but she was AMAZING! She was so quick to respond and send pictures of my cats. I would recommend her to every cat sitter that has nervous cats. She took great care of them and I got to enjoy my trip without any worries. I’ll be rebooking her for future trips!
