“We hired Sheila to take care of our two cats (twice daily visits) while we were out of town. Sheila did an excellent job taking care of everything while we were gone, provided us with visit updates after each visit, and was very thorough in her care. She was very professional and we felt very comfortable having Sheila in our home. Would definitely hire her again--highly recommend!”

3. Kayti S.
“Kayti was the first person through Rover that I’ve hired to come and spend time with my cats while I was out of town. She took the time to come meet them and me in advance, which made me feel more comfortable with the experience. While I was gone, she was engaged with them - playing with toys, taking them for walks, and bringing her daughter with to play with them as well. She sent photos and videos which gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Kayti for anyone looking for someone to watch their cats!”

“Amy is great! She was quick to respond and sent lots of pics and updates. Our cats were very happy when we got home and the house and garden were well taken care of. Our previous pet-sitter left Rover so we had to find a new one and Amy did not disappoint. So glad to have found someone we can trust.”

“Kim did a fantastic job taking care of my cats!! Since Ozzy developed diabetes, it’s been hard to get away for a long weekend. Kim was able to give him his insulin and it really eased my mind. She provided updates and pictures with each drop in visit. Would definitely recommend Kim for your pet care needs.”

13. Katie F.
About: I've always had animals growing up, from small to large sized dogs, cats, and small critters including mice, hamsters, and sugar gliders. I understand how important it is that our fuzzy family members are taken care of while we're away and how much that piece of mind allows us to be able to enjoy our vacations and time away. Professionally, I have worked for a boarding/ doggy daycare for the last two years and have enjoyed every minute of it! During the week, I have a hybrid job that allows me to work from home three days a week and has a lot of flexibility on when I need to be in the office. I can be available for potty breaks and walks during the week. Weekends, I am available morning and evening. At this time I am unable to have animals stay at my house as I don't have a fenced in yard, and my pups are still learning how to play with other dogs. While at your house, I will be sure to abide by your house rules and make sure that your animals are cared for. Any accidents will be probably cleaned up. Communication and transparency are big for me, if anything happens, big or small, you will be notified right away
14. Kimberly L.
“During a recent vacation, i asked a friend for a reference to watch my Border Collie. a friend referred me to Kim. her and her border collie are amazing. our dogs played together and had a ton of fun and my dog came home so tired that i was SUPER happy.”
15. Carly S.
“Carly is excellent with animals! She wholeheartedly cares about their well being. She is great at keeping them busy with playful activities and giving them some good scratches and love when it's time to wind down. I'd highly recommend her!”
16. Jaclyn B.
“I have had Jaclyn watch my three dogs numerous times. She is always dependable and my dogs love her! I know when she is watching them they will not only be well cared for but loved as well! I definitely recommend Jaclyn and will continue to have her watch our babies.”
17. Emily D.
“Emily watched my cat while I was away and has watched both of my pets over the years before Rover. She’s been great each time - very communicative, friendly, and my pets love her! Will definitely book again the next time it’s needed!”
18. Vanessa L.
“Vanessa is the best. I was hesitant to leave my 2 diabetic cats while on an international trip. She sent updates with pictures and I could see the cats were relaxed and well taken care of!!”
19. Leon F.
“Thank you Leon. Rosie loves when you come to play with her! I appreciate that you are so reliable and like Rosie so much.”
20. Lannie S.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and have been actually taking care of them for about 4 years. Walking them, training, bathing, feeding, walking, playing, giving pets medicine and shots. (My cat was diagnosed with diabetes and I would have to give her shots twice a day) I work from 7am-3:30pm Monday-Friday but spend most of my time with my animals anyways. I don’t work weekends so gives me plenty of time to bring your fur babys on walks, dog parks, and playing with them. I will ultimately be your animal’s best friend, depending on your schedule or what would work best for you would be how I will put in play a certain plan. I do tend to bring dogs outside more especially since it’s nice out. I feed them/give medicine according to their normal schedule.
