“WOW! Aimee took such great care of our kitty while we were away. She came for multiple daily visits and sent detailed updates with great photos. She truly went above and beyond our expectations to make sure our cat was well taken care of and I felt so much better knowing Aimee was there for her. I will absolutely be using Aimee for any future travel.”
“Maria was great. It was her first time with our two cats. They warmed up to her quickly, which is saying a lot! Her report cards were clear and complete and all went well!”
“This is our second time booking with Mya and she did such an amazing job like always! She went above and beyond , our cats made a mess and broke some flower pots and she took the time to make sure everything was clean and tidy. Highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Mei is the best!! She took great care of our cats while we were out of the country and made us feel so much more comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She sent great updates and lots of cute pictures which were always the highlights of our days :) Thank you for everything Mei, we will definitely reach back out in the future!!”
“Brittany was amazing with my nearly three month old puppy, Ruby! She kept Ruby busy with a walk and playing with all of Ruby’s toys, and by the end of the visit, Ruby was all tired out (which was the goal)! I can’t thank Brittany enough and will certainly be using her again!”
“Simone did a great job with my dog Lily and my two kittens!! She took lots of photos and videos, my pets looked very happy! She also had some great notes and I will definitely be reaching out to her again for care!”
“Andre was terrific. He came over in advance to make sure he knew where everything was and go over our cats schedule. We definitely know Bowie was well cared for and will use Andre again in the future when we travel.”
“Aislyn was wonderful with our puppy Scout. She was super responsive, on-time, and provided great pictures and write-ups of our visit. That was especially important to us as Scout is our first puppy and we were nervous about leaving her home alone for the first time. Scout always looked so happy in the pictures and when we came home from work!”
About: I have taken classes in dog behaviors and how they act when they might need a particular action done. I have a NAPPS certification, which is National Association of Professional Pet Sitters that is earned for all small animals, both including dogs and cats. I have had my own very young puppy, so I know how to handle and train them in a gentle manner that they will respond to. I have tons of experience in senior dogs and cats, so I am patient to more slow animals or paying attention to them more and making sure they have what they need. I have an extremely open schedule and can stay over for longer periods of time than most people. I am free almost every single day for hours on end, so finding when I can come over is no trouble. I’m easy to schedule if I need to house sit, and am extremely responsible and willing to stay overnight when needed. I love taking care of animals in their own homes, knowing they’ll feel the most comfortable surrounded by their familiar surroundings. The only thing I care about is that your furry companions are safe and cared for in a way that they don’t feel out of place or missing the love they got before you left them in my care.
About: I’ve been taking care of the dogs since I was young. I am a Nanny live-in and dogs babysit in the same time. They sleep with me in the bed when their owner is gone. I love walking them outside. I trained them to listen to me in Thai and English. I have experience in walking the dog outside. I have 2 clients who trust me to walk there dog now. I’m normally free 9 AM - 12:20 PM on the weekdays. After 7 PM on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday And Friday. I sometimes free all day on Saturday. And I am free after 1 pm every Sunday. I would love to take care of the dogs in your house or walking them around your neighborhood. Because I don’t have my own place to take care of other dogs here.
“Lexy and Robert were super awesome caring for my sweet baby Nova. They were very responsive and always made me feel like she was in good hands. My go-to in Clarendon!”
“Kyra is amazing! She took such great care of Kobe and kept me updated every step of the way. I really appreciated the thoughtful messages and how much attention she gave him. I’d definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”
“We are so happy we found Mira! We were able to book her for an impromptu weekend trip. She checked-in on our dog and cat daily for feedings and walks. We received updates & pictures for each visit, which we really appreciated. We will absolutely be making Mira our regular pet sitter/walker. Our pets give her two paws up! Thank you Mira!”
“Maggie is so kind and wonderful with my two cats. She’s so thoughtful and detail oriented and I really appreciated her help while we were away. Maggie is a great rover!”
About: I grew up with pets being part of the family. Over the years I have loved a dachshund, whippet and golden retriever. As well as three cute kitties! I started pet sitting around the age of 10 and have loved caring for each animal I’ve met! I hope to spend quality time with your pet whether it be a long walk or play time! I just graduated high school and am on summer break before I start college in the fall! I am attending a phlebotomy program in July for a few hours each morning but am free in the afternoons and evenings. I want your pets to feel at home when I am around. I plan to offer them what i do my own pets, unconditional love and care.
“Very nice and professional. Amber went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were comfortable with her. Our hyper pitbull puppy wasn't to much for her. Both dogs took a liking to Amber immediately. Both were fighting for her attention. My wife and I definitely will use Amber again.”

Suphaphattra S.
“Suphaphattra, or Evie as she would like to be called, has taken care of my two dogs many times. She is the only person I trust to watch them if I'm not around. They love her like a second "mom"! She goes out of her way to make them feel loved and cared for. She plays games with them, thinks carefully about their safety and generally puts their comfort and happiness first. Evie is very responsible and trustworthy and I've trusted her to take care of my house as well as the dogs while I'm away and the house actually looks better then it did when I left, when I get home! I could not ask for a kinder, more considerate dog sitter who looks after my pups like they were her own!”

Tegan L.
“Tegan has looked after my dog Leo and my four cats all at once, she really handles this huge load with overwhelming grace! She is definitely my go to sitter just because she knows animals on a level that no one else can replicate. For example, she taught my dog Leo how to paw even in his old ages. But other than that, she is super communicative and she always gives her 110% whenever I need her. Tegan is a lovely woman.”

Olde Glebe pet parents share their Rover experiences
We have enlisted Mikaela's help multiple times now and it is an immense comfort knowing that she's taking care of the homefront while we're away. Being able to keep the crew at home, in an environment they know, with a caretaker who's warm and exudes calm energy, is awesome.
Trustworthy, professional ,and easy to communicate with! Julia is exactly who we were looking for to care for our pets, including a special needs cat. We will definitely be using her services again as our animals seemed to really like her, and she was really wonderful with them.
Maria was such a wonderful sitter for our cat while we were gone. She put me at ease, was super organized and routine with her visits, provided ample pictures and notes, and was a genuinely lovely person who I felt I could trust immediately. My cat was so comfortable with her. I will certainly use her again!
Aurora did a great job taking care of our cats while we were traveling, making sure they had food, water, and a clean litterbox and taking time to give them attention and play with them. She sent great pictures and thorough updates, and she even won over our shy cat! Will definitely be reaching out next time we are going out of town
Sun did a wonderful job with our diabetic kitty. She handled the insulin injections without a hitch, and our boy was his happy, cuddly self when we returned after a week of vacation. Sun gave us great confidence and always kept us in the loop. We'll be happy to have Sun take care of our furry family member in the future.
