“We are very pleased with our first drop in with Jackie. Our dog is very anxious around all people and Jackie understood Nabi’s special needs, was on time and very communicative! We will be requesting more drop-ins with Jackie!”
“It is so easy to leave town knowing Colleen is taking care of my baby girl! Zora is generally a shy cat, but really opens up to Colleen, who makes sure she gets her oral meds, even though she hates it! My go to sitter, so grateful to have her!”
“Nelli is great!! Our dog Arnie gets so excited to see her and she takes great care of him. She’s flexible and helpful when Arnies needs change a bit. For example she was able to get him to wear shoes for a few walks when his feet had blisters. We definitely trust her with caring for Arnie!”
“Absolutely awesome! Great about communication, very friendly and did everything I asked! Highly recommend. Even worked on training a trick I couldn't get down! I will definitely choose Micheal again when I need some check-ins.”
“Nicholas was very professional and reliable. He was attentive to detail and managed a complex senior dog. I would highly recommend him. Excellent communication Thank you Nicholas for taking such great care of Darwin and Hazelnut!”
“Liz is amazing. She’s great with my cats and has gone above and beyond in an emergency. If she services your area, feel confident and use her! I couldn’t give a higher recommendation.”
About: I love cats, playing with them, and of course taking their cute pictures. My pet sitting experience started from my friends’ cats and transitioned into taking Rover clients. I’d say for me the toughest part is saying good bye🤗 I can do cat boarding and also drop in visits for cats and dogs. Looking forward to meeting more pets 🤗 My routine is working from home Monday and Friday, the rest of the work days I go to office. On the days I go to office I can walk and play with your pet after 6 pm. Usually when cats stay with me I give them a lot of space, they can jump and play everywhere in my 2 bd apartment , but if you have specific restrictions I could adjust the environment. If your cats like to be pet and you provide me with instruction, I would love to pet them when needed. If they like to sit back and just watch from distance thats great too! Same thing for dogs, I am very respectful of their space and needs.Only love and respect 😍
“Karina is great! We hired her for a drop in with our pup and she is very responsive and sends pictures and videos so you can see how your pet is doing. It's great knowing she is comfortable administering medications since our dog sometimes needs that too. We look forward to using her for other services like daycare and boarding in the future!”
“Ray is an excellent guy. He's always available and I trust him 100% with my dog. I went on a trip to Panama City for 4 days and he took care of my pup. He asked all the right questions. Took notes and took my dog to some great places and sent me pics all the time. Don't hesitate to book Ray if you have the opportunity!!!”
“"Jessica was excellent with our elderly cats. We had peace of mind while traveling, thanks to her daily updates and photos, which we greatly appreciated. We definitely want to continue working with Jessica!"”
“She took extra time and care with our puppy who has gut issues at the moment. She gave extra time for potty breaks and made sure she drank enough water. Thanks again!!”
“Keri did an amazing job cat-sitting for my two cats, Mina and Sofi! She took wonderful care of them and sent me daily picture updates, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Both kitties looked happy and well cared for when I got back. She even made sure to collect my mail, which was a thoughtful touch. It was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands. I’ll definitely be using her services again in June!”
“Best sitter ever! Helped our anxious dogs through a week of our absence and allowed my family and I to enjoy a vacation and family wedding with ease! Thank you SO much, Yazmin!”
“This was my first experience with Rover and Adrian made it a dream! He watched my 11yr old sassy black cat Kiki. He communicated with me every drop off, kept me updated with the cutest photos and followed all instructions perfectly. Even when our kiki was being grumpy, as expected, he still went above and beyond to try and get some enrichment in every visit. I will never forget the hilarious photos of our cat angry, side eyeing or being disinterested in his favorite toy. Protesting the absence of his owners. 😂 I would definitely rebook with Adrian in a heart beat!”
About: I am an experienced, reliable and dependable pet lover. I have grown up my whole life with animals. I recently had to put my senior pitbull down so my house is very quiet now. Pet care is my passion and currently my main source of income and work. I have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am interested in walking, daily visits, or overnight boarding anytime of the week. Our home has a large fenced in yard, perfect for your pup to enjoy some fresh air, or bask in the sunshine. I can take your pet on walks or they can run around in the yard. Or we can snuggle up on the couch and get lots of belly rubs.
About: Hi I’m Patrick! I love dogs and have been around them most of my life, I have three of my own named Bubba, Sassy and Neo who I walk every day. I will be very patient and kind with your pup as if they were my own and make sure they’re having as much fun as I’ll be having! I love all animals including cats but sadly I have family that is allergic so that is a no go but I would definitely consider myself a dog person anyway , no dog is too big or too small for me I’ll love em all the same. Id be ecstatic to add ur dogs to my daily routine:) Questions are welcome of course! My schedule is relatively flexible besides taking care of my own dogs. I am somewhat limited in means of transportation since I ride my bike to get around but that won’t stop me from meeting new dogs! If you do chose me to walk your dog we can discuss what would be best for picking them up for the walk and dropping them back off at your home. If your dog is crate trained I have no problem making sure they go into their crate before I leave.
About: We have a large house with a very large backyard and miss having a dog. We have 2 little ones and I’m home working remote all the time. Dogs love to play and run around in our yard. I sit for many repeat clients that are not on the rover platform but happy to provide additional recommendations as needed. I’m home minus kids school drops and picks so pups come with or left alone a max of 30 mins. I’m also one to take a pup with me everywhere as long as I don’t plan to be out of the car for more then 5 mins. We have a large backyard semi fenced in and trees all along. In the house we have kids so baby proofed. I'm happy to follow your personal house restrictions but as a previous dog owner we had little to no restriction for our dog as he was allowed to roam as he would like.
“Margaret watched my cat for 5 days while I was out of town. She did a fantastic job! I loved getting picture updates with every visit. She came consistently at the same time which was helpful as I knew when to expect my updates. I would definitely rebook with Margaret. It was nice to have peace of mind regarding my cat’s care while I was on vacation.”

Malika K.Star Sitter
“I recently had the pleasure of having Malika pet sit my two cats, Izzy and Rudy, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Malika was incredibly kind and attentive, making sure both cats were well-cared for and happy. She has a natural ability with animals, and it was evident in how comfortable and content Izzy and Rudy were in her care. Malika provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals truly sets her apart. I wholeheartedly recommend Malika to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

Tanya A.Star Sitter
“As a veterinarian, I would trust Tanya with my fur babes without any hesitation. I have seen her tend to her own dogs as they aged and she displayed the upmost patience, kindness and selflessness. The kindness, love and care that she provides is unmatched and she will care for your beloved pets like they are her own. You can relax while you are away knowing that they are getting the love and care they deserve.”
Tetiana K.Star Sitter
“Grateful Tetiana was able to help with such short notice. Even sent pictures of my furbaby while she was eating and when she walked her. Thank you again!”
Pat A.
“Patrick has a love for animals that becomes evident when you watch him around his own pets. It doesn't surprise me that he would like to tend to other people's pets. He is a hard worker, committed to finishing tasks. I think walking, playing with and giving some lovin will make for a very happy dog and owner!!”

Paige is amazing! She’s so friendly & is such a reliable and responsive dog sitter. We could always count on her and she was so flexible when our schedule would change last minute. Was a huge relief knowing she was there to take care of our 2 year old mini bernedoodle & give her love and cuddles. Would highly recommend!!
Nelli is great!! Our dog Arnie gets so excited to see her and she takes great care of him. She’s flexible and helpful when Arnies needs change a bit. For example she was able to get him to wear shoes for a few walks when his feet had blisters. We definitely trust her with caring for Arnie!
Liz was a wonderful care giver and friend to our two cats while we were away. Spent a lot of time during her visits and made sure everything was taken care of with food, water and litter boxes. Gave them so much love as well. We could relax and enjoy our trip knowing they were in very good hands. We definitely recommend her services. :)

Elle dropped in on Cubby a few times when we needed help. She was absolutely awesome with Cubby, very gentle and genuine. Her care and passion for dogs truly came out when we saw the photos she took. She was on-time, followed all instructions to ensure Cubby's routine wasn't interrupted. She kept us informed throughout the process of her visit. I would highly recommend Elle for any Rover service!
Ray is an excellent guy. He's always available and I trust him 100% with my dog. I went on a trip to Panama City for 4 days and he took care of my pup. He asked all the right questions.
