“Allene was amazing to work with! My normally-skittish kitty just loved her and she went the extra mile to hunt for my younger cat, who decided to find new hiding spots that I didn’t even know about! I will definitely be booking Allene again in the future!”

Jules S.

“Michaela took wonderful care of my cat Finn for a week while I was away, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She visited twice a day and sent excellent updates, so I always knew how Finn was doing. What stood out most was how much she genuinely cared about him. One day she noticed he wasn't eating, so she hand-fed him, and he finished his whole meal like a champ. She even offered to pick up extra medication for him if he needed it. When I had to add a visit at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and made it easy. I'm so glad I found her, and I'll definitely be booking Michaela again. Highly recommend!”

Justin L.

“Angela was great! She is very experienced and very comfortable with any and all instructions I gave! She took great care of my cats, and I never worried about them while I was gone!”

About: I grew up with dogs, and have lived with and cared for many a cat. Over the years I’ve become to the go-to pet sitter in my circles, and have sat for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and even hedgehogs! I have experience caring for elderly dogs and and am no stranger to administering special diets, exercise plans and medication. I am so excited for the chance to get to know and love your furry friends! I am quick to form bonds with animals, and love to see old friends again with repeat clients. I’m currently in school once day a week, so I have plenty of time to be with your pet(s). I love getting outdoors, so it’s truly a joy and not out of my way to walk your dog an extra time or take them to the park. I am a naturally playful person, but take your pets’ well-being very seriously- I always ask upfront about your pet’s health and any special needs they may have, as well as for your vets information and nearest emergency clinic. I have a car, so I am able to get them somewhere quickly if need be. I also know that communication with the client is key, and enjoy giving regular updates and do my best to be responsive to messages and questions.

“Nora was really easy to work with, prompt with her visits and I think the kitties really loved her! Thanks so much for your additional help with topaz’s medication and giving them so many pets!”

About: Caring for pets has been a part of my life for a long time, through both pets of our own and foster pets! We’ve been fostering for the past decade and have cared for over 30 dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs with all kinds of personalities, including shy, anxious, and reactive. My favorite thing about animals is they all have their own personalities, and I love learning about who they are! My approach is to meet pets where they’re at and let them set the pace for our interactions, especially those who need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. Senior dogs have an especially big place in my heart, as we have two of our own, and I’m very comfortable with the extra patience and care older pups sometimes need. I’ve also fostered and spent time with dogs of many breeds, sizes, and personalities, including bully breeds which are always welcome! I work a hybrid schedule, and will spend most of my day with your pet. When I leave, it will generally be no longer than about 4 hours at a time, whether for work or to see my own pets and family. If I expect I’ll need to be gone longer than this at any point during the stay, I’ll let you know before booking! I will treat your home as a guest in it; I’m tidy and will clean up after me and your pets! What is helpful for me to know is what your pet’s typical day looks like, if they have any favorite or important parts to their routine, and ways they like to get stimulation (walk, play, puzzles). Where do they sleep? As much information as you can tell me about your pet is better so I can keep things as normal for them as possible!

About: I have had pets my entire life, everything from mice, to lizards, to cats and dogs. I truly love caring for animals and look forward to lending a helping hand. I work full time 4 days a week. I do my best to make sure my dog gets about an hour of exercise daily, and have two cats that also get daily playing time. I am typically home full time on weekends. My backyard is completely fenced in. We have one dog (Australian Cattle Dog mix) who is about 4 years old, and 2 cats that are 3 years old. My cats do fine with dogs, and our dog LOVES new friends.

About: I am new to Rover, but I have many years of experience in taking care of animals. In addition to living with cats and dogs for most of my life, I have also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society. In addition to pets, I also volunteered at the Wildlife Science Center with feeding animals such as foxes, raccoons, bobcats, a lynx, and skunks, and I had the opportunity to care for wolf pups at the International Wolf Center. I am recently retired, so my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and most evenings and am able to work around your schedule. I currently have two cats and previously had dogs, so I understand the importance of keeping them on a regular schedule. Being around animals gives me joy, so I look forward to spending quality time with your pet. I follow your instructions and make sure to follow your pet’s lead when interacting with them. I send you pictures, so you can see how your pet is doing when you are away. I can also check mail and water plants if needed.

About: I grew up around dogs on a ranch and have cared for them throughout every stage of their lives, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. That experience taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, including administering medication, preparing special diets, and providing extra care for senior dogs or those with special needs. My goal is to keep your dog's routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I also believe every dog deserves quality time, not just a quick visit. Whether your dog enjoys playing with toys, going for a walk, getting lots of pets, or simply having someone sit with them for companionship, I'll make sure they receive the attention and affection they need. With puppies, I'm happy to reinforce basic routines and good manners that you're already working on, such as waiting politely at mealtime, practicing calm greetings, and encouraging positive everyday behaviors. While I'm not a professional trainer, I'm always happy to help maintain the routines you've established. Every dog is unique, and I care for each one with patience, kindness, and respect. I'll also send photo updates so you can see how your dog is doing and enjoy a few happy moments while you're away. Your pet's comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and reliable care for pets throughout the day. This flexibility means I can spend quality time with each pet, keep up with their routines, and make sure they receive the attention, playtime, and care they need while their family is away. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I prioritize following each owner's instructions and keeping their normal routine as comfortable as possible. I treat every client's home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I understand that inviting someone into your home is a big responsibility, and I take that trust seriously. I will follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and maintain your pet's normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable environment while receiving the attention, companionship, and care they need. My goal is to leave your home clean, cared for, and your pets happy and comfortable. I believe great pet care means taking care of both the animal and the space they call home.
