“With all of the stress of the holidays, at least I did not have to worry about my kitties. Jane was, once again, attentive to their needs and flexible with her time. Thank you!”
“Anya was absolutely fantastic with our two kitties!!! She sent detailed updates each day with photos, and was super responsive throughout our correspondence. Could not recommend her more highly—we’ll be using you again and again Anya!”
“Molly was amazing at taking care of our cats. We last minute booked a trip and needed someone to help us with the cats. Molly was easy to communicate with, and we felt very comfortable. Can't wait to use her again.”
“Madeline took excellent care of Nori! She was always on time, provided above and beyond communication, and took the time to play with Nori each visit. I will absolutely be having her back to watch our cat again!”
“Yuulia came to watch my pet bunny for an hour and give him his dinner. She did a great job following my instructions and was eager to help out and accommodate me. She was patient with my shy abs scared boy and tried to hand feed him and make him comfortable.”
About: Please read until the end :) I’ve been an animal person for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog at 11. It was a 2 year old Pomeranian. And a year later we brought home another, this time a senior. Having two dogs that young meant I had to show my parents that I was responsible. So I learned take care of them myself, from baths to keeping up with their vaccines. Some of my favorite memories are just walking them to the park or running around the house playing chase until I was completely drenched in sweat. Now I have the most adorable 4 year old kitty I adopted as a kitten, and she completely changed my mind about cats! I really do love both dogs and cats equally. Honestly, in another life I’d probably be a vet or working with wildlife, but for now I just genuinely love taking care of (mostly non-marine) animals and treating them like my own. Please note the following: Drop-offs and pick-ups are accepted between 6:30 AM – 9:00 PM. I can only host up to 1 furry visitor at a time. Please ignore the additional pet rates on my Rover profile. Booking Timeframes Daycare (up to 12 hours): - Daycare includes up to 12 hours of care. - Example: 7AM drop-off → 7PM pick-up - Latest pick-up is 9PM Boarding (24-hour period): - Boarding covers a full 24-hour period from drop-off time. Extended stays beyond the included time may incur additional fees. - Daycare exceeding 12 hours may be charged as extended care - Boarding exceeding 24 hours may incur a late pick-up fee I normally work from home. So I am almost always available to play and spend time with your furry babies! I am also pretty active and love going on a run/taking walks to nearby parks. I live in an apartment with a spacious, gated yard. I also have a very social cat who gets along well with both dogs and cats. I’ve previously pet sat for friends’ dogs and cats, so I’m familiar with managing multiple pets in the home. If needed, I can keep my cat in my room for the duration of your pet’s stay to make sure your pet has a comfortable, low stress environment.
“Laura is amazing! She stepped in super last minute to take care of my boy when my friend flaked on me WHILE I was out of town. Laura is kind, trustworthy, and very patient. My dog is a bit on the shyer side and she seemed to know exactly what to do on how to gain his trust based on intuition and experience. I can’t recommend her enough and will be hiring her in the future. Thank you again, Laura! 🩷✨”
“Meng was amazing! She dropped in to take my pug potty and was totally on top of everything. Super reliable, communicative, and cares about animals. I felt at ease knowing my pug was in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the care our cats received! Molly went above and beyond—playing with the cats daily and leaving detailed notes about their behavior and the condition of our home. She even took out the trash and swept up stray litter. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a tidy home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and thoughtful cat sitter!”
“Alex was a lifesaver, a last minute trip had me in need of a sitter. Although we didn’t meet face to face she was comfortable with a video call, heard all my needs which aren’t a lot and followed them to a T. She also left a hand written note that I thought was the sweetest thing and a detail that stood out so much to me and I know that’s how detail focused she was looking after my Arthur! Would definitely work with her again. And hopefully meet in person lol”
“Daniel was very reliable and took good care of our dogs. Prior to our trip, he came over to meet the dogs and to make sure he knew what we needed from him. He arrived punctually for every drop-in, and shared photos of each visit. We will definitely hire Daniel again.”
“Kayla was so kind and communicative with taking care of our sweet kitty! We could tell our cat really enjoyed Kayla’s company and we’re so grateful for all of the photos Kayla shared from each visit. They’re the best pics we’ve ever got from a sitter! Thank you again!”
“Talia was so amazing with my dog. During her drop-in visit, she was super communicative and sent plenty of updates and photos which I really appreciated. It was so nice to see how happy and comfortable my dog was with her. My dog clearly adored her and was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’d trust Talia to watch my dog anytime and I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Daniel and Bethany took wonderful care of our bunny. They were attentive and took extra care to make sure that she had a clean crate before we arrived home. Thank you so much for the great care!”
“Our dog Luna is normally very shy around new people but she absolutely loves Aditi! She went above and beyond to take care of her and always sent us the cutest pictures and videos with each visit. She is hands down the best sitter we’ve had. 10/10 highly recommend!”
About: I recently lost my Boston terrier, and I’m not ready for a new puppy just yet. So, to get my dog fix, I’m here to help you! Win win! As far as my training background, I volunteered with Guide Dog for the Blind as a Puppy Raiser. This program gives puppies to homes to raise them for the first 1.5 years of their life, then the puppies are returned to the Guide Dogs For the Blind campus for specialized training. I’ve also worked for multiple years in a dog boarding/kennel environment, and love interacting with different breeds with their unique traits and personalities. I’m comfortable with different dietary requests and quirks, and with giving meds. Respecting non-verbal communication from dogs like stiffened body language, whale eye, lip licking and yawning is extremely important to me. I strive to make a dog comfortable in a new environment, not just tolerate it. I deeply understand that trusting someone with your pet is very difficult. I can assure you that I care, and can provide good communication to make it less difficult. I’m comfortable making adjustments to my routine to match the regular routine of the dog or animals I’m caring for. I do not have other obligations. I do have a wire crate as well as wire pen, I have 2 mini sets of stairs for the couch and bed if a doggie is wee. I have hardwoods with area rugs, no other pets. Ground floor unit with no steps, my neighborhood has protected sidewalks and a park nearby.
“Anastasiia did an amazing job taking care of my kitty! She left incredibly comprehensive recaps of their visit and my little girl was so happy when I got back home. I’ll definitely be rebooking with her.”
“Esther watched our two kitties with super short notice. She stopped by to meet them and was very thorough for each check-in. Our two cats are rescues, so they have a lot of anxiety. They were very comfortable with her. We’d definitely hire her again.”
About: @nicolespupwalks on Instagram! What sets me apart from other dog walkers and sitters is my extensive experience caring for a variety of dogs, including senior citizens’ pets and those of friends and family. My genuine love for dogs shines through in every session, ensuring that each pup receives the attention and care they deserve. I prioritize their safety and well-being, creating a positive and enjoyable experience for them. With my dedicated approach, you can expect lots of pictures and videos to give you the peace of mind that your puppy is in good hands :) I am available to walk and/or sit dogs on the weekends! Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are flexible. I am not available Tuesdays nor Thursdays. Thank you! I care for pets in my client’s home with respect and consideration for the space and nothing but love and care for your cute pup.
About: I’ve lived with dogs all my life, and just lived with my roommate's dog for four years. He is an extremely anxious dog so I have experience with that. We've had to be very careful taking him outside, so I understand the special needs of anxious dogs. I'm currently working part-time so just trying to use the extra time to help with your pets! More free on the weekends but I can definitely find time during the week! I treat your pet and home like it's my own. I understand how important it is to create a safe and calming environment for pets!
Palms pet parents share their Rover experiences
Yuliia was so amazing and we would book with her again. She was very communicative throughout the entire process, sending regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about mochi and wasn't just stopping by to complete the basics. She spent quality time playing with her and making sure she had attention during her visits. We really appreciated her reliability and thoughtfulness, highly recommend!
I took a chance booking Janelle last minute for over two weeks of daily visits and I’m so glad I did! She was so sweet and communicative, cleaned up after my kitty in multiple ways, and even took out my trash at the end of the job. I will definitely be booking with Janelle again!
Super last-minute trip meant usual sitters weren't available so I turned to Rover. James was incredibly prompt, professional, and helpful in his replies and lucky for me (and my cat) he was available for a last minute booking. I booked two drop-ins per day for a week and he went above and beyond to care for my baby. He sent thorough reports and adorable pics each visit, paid great attention to detail, and did an overall fantastic job. Highly recommend James for pet care and wouldn't hesitate to book him again. I think my cat actually MISSES his playtime buddy.
Alex was perfect, she took amazing care of our two cats, plus a litter of foster kittens! She was so experienced and went above and beyond with detailed updates and pictures, I felt 10000% confident all our kitties were happy and getting the best care. Thank you so much Alex!!
Julia did a great job cat sitting for me for two weeks. She communicated clearly and consistently, and was very flexible with scheduling and any changes. My home was left clean and well cared for. Most importantly, my usually shy cat felt comfortable with her, which really says a lot. I would definitely trust her to cat sit again.
Betteena saved my cat’s life. Truly. What was supposed to be routine pet sitting turned into a medical emergency for one of my cats while I was away, and I genuinely do not know what I would have done without her. My cat Harley became seriously ill, and she immediately stepped in without hesitation. She was flexible, updating her visits and adjusting her schedule around my cat’s medication needs. She monitored him constantly, administered medications, cleaned up after his accidents, and kept me updated nonstop. She didn’t just “watch” my pets. She saved Harley as if he were her own. In one of the most stressful moments imaginable, she stayed calm, proactive, compassionate, and unbelievably attentive. She noticed every detail, acted quickly, and handled everything with so much care and urgency. Because of her, Harley got help when he needed it most. I truly believe she saved his life. On top of all of that, she still made sure my other cat was equally loved, comforted, and cared for. My home was immaculate, communication was constant, and I never once questioned whether my pets were safe in her hands. Finding someone you trust with your animals is rare. Finding someone who loves and protects them as fiercely as you do is almost impossible. She is that person. I will forever be booking Betteena and recommending her to every pet parent I know. If you are lucky enough to book her, do it immediately. There are not enough stars, words, or thank-yous in the world for what she did for my family. Harley and I will forever be grateful.
