“Nothing but praise for Catecha! She helped us out with house sitting our 3 pups with just a few days notice. The pups loved her from the meet & greet. We couldn't keep our oldest dog from trying to get in Catecha's vehicle to go home with her! Communication was immediate. We returned to 3 very happy pups and a house cleaner than we left it!! I would 100% book Catecha again and highly recommend her to anyone with any Rover needs!”
“Daniel was great! He was extremely professional and respectful and I felt very safe leaving my pets in his care. He sent photo updates and detailed messages and went above and beyond to keep my home nice for when I returned. I couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter and my pets agree.”
“Donnis is great! She treated our pups like they were her own & they didn’t even act like they missed us at all when we got home after a whole week of being gone!”
“Makalee was awesome!! I requested her to house sit and she was so communicative the entire time and never left me wondering what was going on with my babies. My dogs really clang to her the whole time. She followed all of the instructions I left for her and handled my dogs so sweetly. Will definitely be booking with her again soon! And you should too!”
“Mallory did an amazing job taking care of my pets! I will be using her when I leave my babies!”
“Kira never disappoints… I’m so blessed to have found you on Rover bc we never have to worry when you’re house sitting our baby Harlee.. thank you again for all that you do..”
About: I have had pets all of my life, and I have helped take care of them from puppies to seniors. I have applied that knowledge into my professional work as well. I can feed and bathe pets, walk, and administer pills. I have previously worked with dogs, cats, birds, and bunnies. I am also close to several animal shelters and help socialize, walk, help with adoptions, and foster when needed. I am currently working as a contractor worker, so I have free time and flexibility to take care of your fur babies! I take care of my own person kitty cat, but other than that I am completely free to take care of your fur kids. When caring for animals at a client's home, I make sure to find out any and all safety features or precautions needed for their pets. I try to make sure the pets stay on their schedule, including any routines they may have such as walking a certain path, going out a specific door, etc.
About: Started training both dogs and people at about 12 years old. House and dog sat more times than I can count over the years for family, friends and neighbors. Having trained my 2 year old Swiss Shepherd and even my cat, I am confident that I can help train your dogs, as well as help ensure that they get the care and stimulation they need when life and adventure calls you away from home. I work for the film industry on a gig by gig basis so when I’m not on set I have ample time to help cover your pet sitting, dog walks and house sitting needs. If you’re within my area, my flexible schedule means that I can be at your house when you need me to be. The well being of an animal is very high priority to me. Unfortunately my current lease doesn’t allow me to have any more animals on the premises lol, my two pups and cat have a fenced yard and dog door of their own so I can easily leave them home while looking after your precious fur babies.
“Jack was awesome with Cooper! He took very good care of him and I could tell that Cooper loved him and had a great time while we were away. We will definitely call Jack back the next time we need someone to watch over our boy.”
About: I've wanted to work with animals my entire life. I had my own dog for 9 wonderful years and recently experienced the joy and responsibility of raising a litter of puppies. Over the past 10+ years, I’ve cared for the pets and homes of family and friends, building trust and gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or special care needs, I treat every pet like they’re my own. This is currently my full time job and looking for new opportunities as I start up my new trades and services. I will have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets. I currently only offer services at clients homes so all our future furry babies can become familiar with me before going anywhere with me. If your pet has any special needs or medicines, don’t hesitate, I have experience with that too.
“Megan was great with our 3 dogs on our weekend away. She came for a meet and greet in early July and came back to see them again the week we were leaving to check in with us and make sure the dogs remembered her. We will certainly book with her again!”
About: I've been blessed to be trusted to keeping pets and homes safe for many friends and family over the years. It's something I do not take lightly I have two part time jobs that is in same area. But your pet sitting/walking home sitting needs always will be the upmost priority for me. I'll make sure that whatever routines your pup is used too will not change whilst y'all are trusting me with your precious fur babies and castle
“This girl did not miss a beat. She watched our whole firy family for a week and a half and even stayed overnight with them. She was prompt to alert me To abnormal behavior from my older kitty and made sure he was taken care of at the vet. The best part was that she gave extra attention to that kitty for the remainder of the visit like I would have. All of the meds were given and even my vet commented on how well she was doing with my kitty. She updated me consistently for all the pets and set pictures/videos. She even took the trash out to the street and filled the bird feeders I would hire her again for anything pet related !!”
About: I’ve taken care of an array of dogs since I was a child. Calm, engaged, and fun dog mom. Teacher full time needing a summer gig. I currently work full time as a middle school teacher. I want something to fill my time over the summer. What better way to do it than with animals? My current dog care happens in the morning and afternoon/evening. I currently have open availability aside from a few pre-planned activities. I have a large unfenced yard. I have an older spayed female chipoo that is friendly with other dogs. She is on a set routine which includes going outside multiple times a day, meals twice a day, play time, plus more. I regularly clean the bottom, paws, face, etc. to ensure things are always fresh and clean.
About: I am an animal lover and veterinary nurse so my love for animals is very real. I've raised 2 of my own dogs from puppies (6 weeks and 2 months) and I didn't let them go until their passing a couple years ago. I currently have 1 dog named Honey and she loves other dogs and I would love to help other take care of their dogs as this is my career choice! I look forward to loving on your dogs as I love on my own. I’m great with giving meds, changing bandages, giving injections, nail trims, ear cleaning, and expressing anal glands if needed as well. Most importantly I do require all pets that I board be on flea and heart worm prevention as I do live in a townhouse and we will be going on a lot of walks. This is for the safety of your baby(ies) and mine. Also if you have an intact female dog (not spayed/able to have puppies) please be sure she comes with the proper coverings if she is in heat. Thank you for your consideration. I currently work daily as a veterinary nurse so I will take the fur babies to work with me so that they are still being cared for throughout the day. I treat all pets as if they are my own so they get lots of love, fed, treats, walks, and trips to the dog park as well while under my care.
“Victoria watched our two dogs in our home for six nights, and the experience was wonderful. She was consistently communicative, kind, and diligent—professional in every way. Each day, we received pictures and updates; she followed our instructions to a T. We came home to a tidy house and happy pups. Overall, she made it much easier to leave them behind and assuaged our anxiety. We’re big Victoria fans and look forward to using her in the future!”
About: My mom has been on Rover since 2018 and I have been involved since I could remember. I love to meet new dogs/ puppies and interact with them all while doing what I love. I have grown up with dogs and couldn't imagine life without them! I am available 24/7 for any pet needs. I respond quickly and am able to stop what I'm doing to make time for your 4 legged friends! I will love and protect your pet like my own. I will always update and make sure they are safe and happy. No matter the time, your pet comes first.

“Alexis is, by far, the absolute best pet sitter that we have ever had! She truly loves our babies like her own. She is extremely thorough…taking notes, sending pictures, and making sure that they are so well-cared for. She even keeps a log of all of their daily activities. Our babies love Alexis so much and we always know they they are in the best care when they’re with her.”
Edward B.
“Ed is great with pets. He currently has two dogs and a cat in his household. He is loving and caring. The best sign of a good pet caregiver is that his own pets are loyal and trusting back at him. I went on a walk with him and his dogs a few weeks ago while visiting. The dogs seemed to have a good time, and there was no stress for any of us. Ed enjoys being with his dogs. One is young, and the other is getting old. He is kind to each and watches after their individual needs. He is also appropriately stern (but not angry) with the young one when necessary.”
