“As always, Kendall is amazing with our pets and even goes beyond whats requested of her. She makes sure to keep me at ease as someone who’s had previous issues with a sitter in the past, even despite my constant checking in & hovering. Shes wonderful with all of our fur babies.”
“Mallory does a great job looking after my cats while I am away! I feel better leaving knowing that she will be stopping by to feed and hang out with them.”
“Anna took excellent care our very shy and anxious dog during our week long vacation. Anna is excellent and I am very happy to have found someone I trust to watch our Poppy!”
“Traci is the best! She takes great care of our dog Jethro and is great with taking pictures and giving updates. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog walker/sitter in the neighborhood”
“Noel did his typical great job cat sitting Jessie. He graciously adapted as the vacation days shifted from plan, & made sure that Jessie was well cared for, bringing new toys to keep her engaged for 2+ weeks.”
About: What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive to each pet’s personality and routine. Living with three cats has taught me that every animal is different, and I try to make sure they feel comfortable in their own space while their owner is away. I’m also very reliable and communicative, so I always make sure owners feel updated and reassured while they’re gone. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both pets and their owners. I currently work part time, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to check in on pets throughout the day and make sure they’re getting the attention and care they need. I always try to work around each pet’s routine and will do my best to be available for the times that work best for you and your pet. When caring for someone’s pet, I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I make sure they’re in a safe, calm environment and pay attention to things like feeding schedules, litter boxes, walks, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I also believe communication is really important, so I’m happy to send updates and photos to help owners feel at ease while they’re gone.
“Mia was fabulous taking care of my two kittens. She made sure they were well fed and had plenty of water. She spent quality play time with the kittens and captured the best pictures! Highly recommend!!”
“Gabby was great! Along with being communicative, timely and amazing with Cece, she is also super knowledgeable on training and was able to provide valuable feedback on our puppy’s habits. We will definitely use Gabby again!”
“Ariel was wonderful. I could tell by the way she talked that she absolutely loves animals and I felt totally at ease leaving my horde with her for a week. She came twice a day to check on everyone and I got text updates. I will definitely be booking with her for my next vacation.”
“We just started using Sydney for the first time, and our dogs loved her! She was on time, followed directions and so friendly! Thank you and we look forward to future sits.”
“Trish was very communicative, followed detailed instructions, asked for clarification anytime there was a doubt, and took good care of my dog with a detailed report of her activities. Her presence and care for my dog gave me peace of mind while I was at work. Thank you, Trish!”
“First time utilizing Makenna’s services and she was very professional and skilled. Follows directions very well and always sent updates / pictures. I appreciated her willingness to work with my high maintenance pup.”
“Gladys has been so awesome caring for my girl! She communicates with me in a timely manner and treats Arya well. She even makes sure to wipe Arya down if she gets dirty when they’re outside! Arya is always smiling in the pictures Gladys posts. So glad my girl is so happy!”
Northwest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brittainny has been nothing short of amazing! She really takes the time to get to know my dogs and is amazing with them. Having recently moved to Houston and traveling from time to time, finding someone who would care for my babies was daunting. I feel my pups are in great hands with her.
I had the pleasure of leaving my dogs with her for a day, and I couldn’t be happier. I usually check the cameras for peace of mind, and I could see how lovingly she treated them—hugs and all! She also sent me pictures of all my fur babies. They were clearly so happy to see her and spend time with her. She did an excellent job, followed every instruction to the letter, and I’d recommend her to anyone who needs a super trustworthy and caring sitter.
Natalia did an amazing job with my cat! My cat is high energy and requires a little bit of extra attention, especially when I am away for a few days. Natalia played with her and gave her that much needed attention with great joy and affection! She sent lots of photos and videos so I knew my cat was taken care of in the best possible way. Thank you Natalia!
Literally the sweetest! My three cats are all on daily meds (2 on oral meds and 1 with two different eye drops) and have a pretty specific and complex routine due to that. Finding someone that I feel comfortable leaving my cats in the care of is very difficult since they can be kind of timid around new people, especially when getting their meds. Crystal has been fantastic and very communicative and I love knowing my cats are in amazing hands!!
Kyle (& Heather) were such a huge help watching my fur babies. Kyle was attentive and punctual, making it easy for me to relax and trust they were in good hands. Would definitely book with Kyle again, super grateful for the pictures and attention he gave my kitties while I was away.
Emily was an absolute delight to work with! She’s incredibly professional, communicative, and incredibly caring with our two cats. When we had a house leakage incident while we were away, she went above and beyond to help us clean up everything and reassured us that she was there to assist us further if needed. Would absolutely work with her again!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. She took care of my two cats, Boris and Zack, for over a month (40–45 days), and she was simply amazing. She sent me pictures every time she visited, kept me constantly updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was very clear how kind and loving she is with animals — you can truly tell she loves cats, and that made all the difference for me. Boris and Zack were so well cared for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly, highly recommend her!
This was our first experience with rover and we were so nervous! Mia was amazing with our cats and always sent us detailed communication and pictures throughout the day. She eased our anxiety and quickly became a trusted and amazing cat sitter! We will definitely be using Mia again!
We -- and especially our kitties -- love Traci's services! She's timely, professional, caring, and dependable, and she gives lots of attention to our cats while we are away. We appreciate the daily updates and photos, and from the pictures, you can tell the kitties love having her visit.
We cannot recommend Hannah highly enough! She took such wonderful care of our cats! We had her drop by just to play with our cat who has a ton of energy, but she gave all 3 of them attention. Our orange cat, who is the scardiest of scaredy cats, usually hides from everyone. But incredibly, he came out for her and even took a treat from her hand. We were shocked (and so grateful)! Her updates gave us so much peace of mind, and it was obvious our cats felt safe and cared for in her presence. We would absolutely book her again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and amazing with even the most nervous pets, she’s it!
