“We feel so lucky to have found August! They are such a kind and caring person who truly loves our pup. Communication is always clear and timely, and they’re incredibly reliable—which gives us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, our dog is so well cared for and genuinely happy when they're with August. We’re so grateful to have them in our dog’s life!”


“Bobby is amazing! He took excellent care of our dog and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable while we were away. He responded quickly and gave us detailed information about each visit. He even rescued a wild bunny in our yard when our dog frightened it into a deep window well. Bobby is the best!”


“Aimee was great. She made sure both cats were taken care of, bowls full and the litter box was cleaned. She was very respectful of the house as well. Would definitely use her again.”


“Lori ventured into the ice and snow to care for my little cat during while away during the holidays. She’s kind, attentive, reliable, and truly appreciates each pet’s individuality. Couldn't ask for a better pet sitter!”


“Rachel was super communicative and a fast responder! She really helped me out when I ended up taking a last minute trip! She left the best report cards that were super informative and left me knowing Benny had been taken care of! Would absolutely recommend!”


“Kayla took care of our cat for a week! She gave us so many pictures and a paragraph update daily! Defiantly eased the travel without the pet anxiety! Thank you Kayla!!”


“Lori did an excellent job looking in on our cat Dwight. She was nice, communicative, professional, and best of all Dwight (who is very shy) liked her. We look forward to working with her in the future!”


“Kaitlin provided great daily updates on Penny and was fantastic at keeping Penny’s space tidy. I would definitely recommend Kaitlin for your cat check in needs!”


“I’ve booked multiple times with Sydney and I am very happy each time!! My cat loves her and Sydney handles everything at the house with no issues :)”


“Really appreciate the quick communication and thorough updates! Also very grateful for the ability to extend check-ins when my plans changed. Thanks so much!”


“Beth did a great job caring for my cat! I appreciated the photos provided and the fact that my cat looked content in them. There were a couple small things like our back door being unlocked and litter not being thrown away, but I could have communicated better! I recommend Beth to anyone needing an attentive and caring cat sitter.”


“Evita is wonderful with our cat! She dropped in to take care of our cat everyday of the snow and ice storm. Even though we were out of town, we felt much better knowing Teddy was in good hands. She is great at communication and responding quickly. We would 10/10 recommend!”


“Garrett was fantastic with my girl!”



“Alea was great! Super communicative and great with my pet. Definitely would recommend booking!”



“Cannot overstate how great I-Hsin was with our dogs. They're needy, but not in a straightforward medical way, rather a series of complex psychological problems. She did a terrific job and was super flexible about the timing, which was much appreciated.”


About: I have a 7 year old boston terrier who I have had since she was a puppy. I also dog sit a variety of breeds for friends and family including staffordshire terrier and bulldog. I work remotely and have flexibility during the day as well as weekends. I am available to pick up from you directly in afternoon to evening as well as on the weekend. I am available for you to drop off to me any time of the day on weekdays or weekends. I currently make my boston terriers food at home from scratch, administer medications when needed, bathe and trim nails, and take her on frequent walks. I am used to providing this level of care and would bring the same level of care to yours.

“Sarah, did a great job of taking care of our cat and checking on our home while we were out of town. I would not hesitate to use Sarah again the next time we need a cat sitter.”



About: I have had dogs since I was a child. I grew up with a pitbull mix. Since college, I've had herding dog mixes, and those take a lot of walks, fun, and training. I currently have (and love) two dogs, one of which was adopted with reactivity, and through personal training and group training, he is now the most dependable dog I've ever had. My corgi listens when she wants to, but she's sweet as can be! I work from home, so I can find times to step away for an hour here and there to help out. Overall, I am very available on nights and weekends. I am all for following what the dog needs. My own dogs have different greeting needs, and I'm willing to work with whatever yours' needs. Unless told otherwise, I lean hard on providing treats to all pups I am with. Positive reinforcement is the only training I participate in.

Overlook pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brandon was great! He sent a lot of wonderful photos, and it was obvious that my cat was enjoying his company. Would definitely book with him again.

Kate was wonderful! Very responsive and flexible, sent lots of great pics. Came back to a happy pet!

Evita was able to take care of Ruby last minute and I really appreciated that! Ruby seemed super happy in the photos she sent and Evita communicated with me consistently! I would book with her again and I suggest you do the same!

Lydia is absolutely amazing. i had an emergency that took me out of town and my very skittish kitty has never interacted with strangers…until Lydia came along! she really came through for me and she bonded so well with Tim Riggins (my cat, not the TV character 🙃). i got a ton of photos and i could tell my cat was having the time of her life! i highly recommend Lydia and will absolutely use her services in the future (she IS my cat’s new best friend after all!).

Baeli was great! Took time to meet in advance and go over Orca's needs. Was given regular updates and things were pretty much as we left them when I came back. Will recommend!

Dani is a fantastic kitty sitter! She is very communicative and responsible and our little guy was great upon our return. She even went above and beyond when a bottle of sauce exploded in our cabinet, leaving sticky residue on the counter top. She sent me a text with a pic to keep me informed and cleaned the mess it left on the counter so it wouldn't stain. Dani is the best!

Madison is super responsible and on time, and our cat loves her! She takes incredible action shots of her playing 😂 We always know she'll take great care of our kitty and would recommend her to anyone as a cat sitter.

Olivia was amazing at accommodating my last minute changes to my schedule requests. Winston really enjoyed having them home with him while I was away and I will be booking again!

We feel so lucky to have found August! They are such a kind and caring person who truly loves our pup. Communication is always clear and timely, and they’re incredibly reliable—which gives us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, our dog is so well cared for and genuinely happy when they're with August. We’re so grateful to have them in our dog’s life!

Venus was great! She took such good care of our kitty and garden while we were away, and provided fun photos and videos. It was a relief knowing our kitty was getting the loves, food, medicine, and care he needed while we were away. Venus was also very responsive to communications. We'll be happy to have her back again.

Rhys was amazing with my cat Charlie! She provided great updates and made sure Charlie had ample playtime. Would totally recommend her!

Desirée did an amazing job! My cat was very happy and I could tell was cozy while we were away. She was also very good at communication, highly recommend hiring her to take car of your pet.

Alexa is absolutely amazing and our go-to sitter for our sweet kitty. She’s consistent, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. I recommend her 1-zillion percent.

I was super stressed out because the original person I had lined up ended up not being a good fit. I also have never used Rover or someone I don't know. Once I met Jordan, I felt relieved. She is super sweet, accommodating, responsible and responds quickly. Me and my Poots lover her and we will be using her from now on. Thank you Jordan!!!

Ivory's the greatest! She's been looking after our cats for a couple of years and always sends great photos and videos, never missing an appointment!

Laura stepped in last minute to do some check ins on our elderly cats for a weekend. She was respectful of our home, and so incrediby caring and gentle with our cats. She followed care and other instructions exactly as listed. I'm so grateful and impressed. 10/10 recommend and will hire again!
