“Rachel did an amazing job checking on our cat! Our cat is normally pretty shy around new people but seemed to warm up to Rachel pretty quickly. Rachel also kept us updated and sent pics everyday. Overall, she was great and we will definitely have her take care of our cat again!”
“Mary did a wonderful job again! So happy to not have to worry about our kitties while we are away. We really appreciate the updates and photos. Thanks for taking such good care of Oscar and Wilson again!”
“This was our first time using Rover but also having someone other then a family member watch our 2 dachshunds. They can be picky on who they let into there circle and they had no issue warming up to Kelly right away! We were very nervous but Kelly was so calm and made us at ease while we were out of town. I can’t not say enough good things about her! I wish I could explain how much a relief we got knowing our babies were comfortable with Kelly and were taking such good care of! (Our dachshunds are our everything!) We will 1000000% be using Kelly in the future! She was amazing!!!!!”
“Kacey is an absolute lifesaver! She came to my rescue not once, but twice during a major moment of need when my Litter Robot malfunctioned. Despite never having met me or my kitties before, she stepped in without hesitation and provided excellent care. Her willingness to help on short notice truly meant the world to me. I can’t thank her enough for her support and reliability. Highly recommend Kacey to anyone looking for someone kind, dependable, and incredibly helpful!”
“We trust Felicia to care for our aging cat. The cat is very shy, and requires oral medication delivered by syringe. Prior to signing up to Rover, and finding Felicia, we were hesitant to go away, considering our pet’s medication needs, Thanks to Felicia, we rest assured that our kittie is in good hands.”
“Amy was super reliable and responsive while she took care of our cat, Magpie, for a week. She left great updates and pictures and clearly gave Magpie a ton of love. We would definitely recommend Amy for anyone looking for a cat or dog sitter!”
“Jordan was absolutely amazing! Even my grumpy antisocial cat warmed up to her very quickly ! She gave both my cats plenty of attention while I was gone and was very detailed with her visit summaries! As a flight attendant it can be hard to find someone you trust to check on your fur babies while you travel but I will be using Jordan from this point forward!”
About: 20+ years of pet care experience. In high school and college I worked as a vet tech, and at a boarding/daycare/grooming facility. I have also worked with livestock at numerous farms and horse boarding facilities. I now have 1 dog, 3 cats, and a horse of my own. I love building relationships with pets (those that want it) or giving space (for the more nervous and anxious ones). I pride myself on being able to accurately read each pet and knowing what they need. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule which makes pet sitting amazing! I am able to watch pets while you're away and keep them on whatever schedule best works for them. I'm also available for mid-day let-outs and walks! I make sure each pet is comfortable around me. If they are happy, energetic pets- I make sure to help them get their energy out so they look forward to seeing me! If they're more reserved and nervous, I make sure to go slow so they do not see me as a threat and I do not try and cloud their space, while also reassuring them I am a safe person.
About: I have lived with large dogs all my life. I now have lived on a farm for a little over 11 years raising cows, pigs, and a horse. I am currently in the police academy that is Monday- through 7an-4pm meaning that I have my whole evenings and weekends free to be able to take care of the four legged beast friends I like to make sure that the pet that I’m looking after is either next to me or at least within eye site of me.
About: With years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, I specialize in providing personalized care tailored to each pet's unique needs. Whether it's puppies requiring training, senior dogs needing extra attention, or energetic pups needing daily exercise, I ensure each dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for. My passion for animals and commitment to their well-being sets me apart, and I bring a nurturing touch that creates a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I prioritize the well-being of animals alongside my other responsibilities. I structure my day to include dedicated time for dog walks, feeding, play, and any special needs like medication or training sessions. On a weekly basis, I ensure I have flexibility to accommodate pet visits, whether it’s regular check-ins or extended stays. My routine is organized to ensure that every pet receives the care, attention, and affection they deserve, making it an enriching and rewarding part of my day. I respect the pet’s familiar surroundings, keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I provide walks, feedings, playtime, and regular check-ins. For pets with special needs, I follow any specific instructions such as administering medications or offering extra comfort to senior pets.
About: With the exception of a few years during college, I have always had animals in my life! I grew up always having a cat and a dog in the house and taking progressively more responsibility for their care as I got older. Now, I'm owned by two dogs (a boxer mix and a lab mix) and two cats, one of which followed my boxer and I home one day and decided to stay. They are by far the best part of my day. With all these fur babies, I've run the gauntlet of pet care challenges, from pilling cats, to dealing with allergies, to working on behaviors like marking and excessive barking. I don't claim to have it all figured out, but what I do know is that it's made me incredibly patient and compassionate with any animals in my care. Plus I've learned a trick or two along the way! I currently work for myself (from home) as a research consultant. While I do have periodic meetings throughout the week, I usually have a significant amount of flexibility in my schedule during the mornings and afternoons. I often find myself going out on multiple long walks throughout the day and generally finding any excuse I can to be outside. So why not use that time to hang out with some new animal friends? My flexible schedule means that I can accommodate most any pet needs. I go for multiple walks every day both on my own and with my own dogs, so it's easy to incorporate lots of activity in your pet's day. I also have an enclosed front porch that we all love sitting outside in the shade on, just enjoying the fresh air. And on hot days, I even have a kiddie pool that one of my dogs likes to play in to cool off. Both my dogs are very friendly and would love to make new friends! One of my cats even enjoys horsing around with the dogs. My dogs have free reign in the house, but usually hang out with me. I'm happy to have your dog(s) make themself at home as well or to crate them if that's your preference.
