“I had to request Julia only a couple of days before my trip and was happy that she was flexible to have a meet and greet with our cat the next day. Julia was great with him. This was our first time leaving him but she made sure I felt comfortable. She sent great updates on how he was doing and also sent really great pictures (two of them are my fav pics of him now). I am more at ease now if we will go on another trip because I know if we leave our cat with her, he will be in great hands.”

About: I grew up pet sitting, now have furbabies of my own, and still can't get enough! Let me care for your pet and consider adding on a photography session or digital art. Examples are on my profile! I work from home, so I have very flexible! My work is on my own schedule, so I can adjust as needed to accommodate your pets needs. I live in a two-story house with a fully fenced (6ft) backyard. We have more than four bedrooms and plenty of space to allow for keeping your pets fully separated from ours if preferred! All doors and gates are kept secure whether boarding, walking, or dropping in! I have my own leash that goes around my waist along with a hand strap for added security. I always check collars/harnesses before leaving the house. Outside time is always monitored!
“Ivy is the best sitter we have ever had! She went above and beyond with my 2 kitties. She played with them, took awesome pictures, was extremely communicative and was even able to give the mean one her daily meds. Her updates were thorough and I couldn't be happier. Usually the cats ignore us for a bit when we get home but they have been sweeter than ever so I know they had a good time. It was hard tracking down someone that is passionate about cats and not just dogs so I feel lucky to have found her!”
About: I worked at the Philly Zoo when I was 14 so caring for animals has been my interest and passion for a long time. I offer patience, tenderness, and love for every furbaby. I am very attentive to needs and will be communicative along the way! I am a full time director at an after school program so my mornings are free until 9:30a and evenings after 6pm during the work week. Otherwise, on the weekends I am very available! At the moment I will not be housing pets as I have an 11 year old cat; but I am happy to meet you where you are and come for drop ins when needed!
“Jill is simply the best! She responded to my messages very quickly, and she always provided very comprehensive updates each time she visited Leia (my cat), including plenty of photos. She checked in with Leia at exactly the time I asked and followed all my care instructions. I felt very comfortable knowing Leia would be very well taken care of by Jill while I was away. I highly recommend Jill and will definitely be reaching out to her next time I'm away! Thank you.”
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with a cozy, pet friendly home and a genuine passion for caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities and always treat them like part of the family. Whether your pet needs a walk, some playtime, or overnight care while you’re away, I’m here to help with reliable, loving attention. My services are perfect for busy workdays, weekend trips, or holidays. I love sending photo updates and keeping your mind at ease while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can care for your furry family member! I work a full-time job during the day with plenty of love (and belly rubs!) to give in the evenings and on weekends. I do work some days from home too! I have kots of comfy places for your dog to lounge around. I have a fenced in yard for running, playing or sniffing! We live close to the Beltline for walks, too. We have one resident dog, Amelia and four cats (Summitt, Bob, Mora and Lando).
“Extremely professional, very tentative to my dog's needs, patient and responsible. On time for all scheduled shifts, and ensure communication was consistent. We will most definitely hire him again to watch our fur baby.”
“Lexie was my first go with using Rover for taking care of my two dogs. She made it easy to relax while on vacation, knowing the dogs were happy and healthy. Definitely plan to schedule with her in the future.”
About: Me and my wonderful partner Jazz have decades in the fur-tastic game! With a childhood on a farm, my daily crew included dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and cows (just to name a few!). I wear a perpetual grin, love nature walks, and I always take time to train any of our furry guests! As an at-home actor and producer, I occasionally swap my comfy couch for the thrill of a film set. We always love some furry friends to play with our corgi. Daily walks? We're on it 2-3 times a day. Backyard escapades? Always on the schedule! And come weekends, we're either hitting the trails or chasing fun at the park. Safety first, fun always! Our neighborhood is safe and walking distance to a park. And for the tinier fur-bundles, we've got a cozy crate ready for some snug time.

Oakland City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Did a great job getting to know my shy new shelter pup and her needs. She didn’t rush/push her and let Artie come out of her shell at her own pace so she could enjoy walks with a new bud 👍🏽 Knows dogs well and obviously loves them, happy to have her in the neighborhood!
As always, Shanese took wonderful care of my babies. She kept me posted with messages and pictures the entire time, putting me at ease, letting me know they were well taken care of. I’ll definitely be hiring her again, and I’d recommend her to anyone who loves their pets.
Stefanie took wonderful care of our 3 kittens and our condo while we were away for several nights. She was very caring, communicative and responsible. I would love for her to care for our cats again when we are away, I would not hesitate to recommend her.
I had the pleasure of having Adia dog sit for me while I was away, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was responsible, communicative, and clearly cared for my dogs as if they were her own. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter!
Maddie was great! My cats (most of them) were originally skittish, but when I came back after being gone for 3 days and 2 nights I could tell that she had spent some time bonding with them because 2 of the three would approach her and the third at least let her pet him a little. I would love to have her sit for me on a regular basis, if she is available.
