“Sara was such a wonderful and thoughtful cat sitter. My cat Polly is sooooo shy with strangers, and I usually tell sitters not to worry if they can't find her, but Sara was able to coax her out right away! Pet whisperer! I'm really impressed and will definitely call Sara in the future when I need pet care.”
“Jordana stopped in to play with my puppy and they seemed to have a great time. I appreciated the videos and plan to use her again for drop-in visits. Highly recommend!”
“Our cats are well cared for by Anne anytime we have to travel. Anne also makes sure to bring in any packages that arrive and brings in the mail which is super helpful! Highly recommend!”
About: As a pet parent for over 60 years, I have always been in touch with my love for and connection with animals. For the past 12 years, I provided care to dogs, cats, birds and rabbits. Through this time, I learned about caring for animals in different stages of life all with different personalities and needs. My certifications in dog training from the Animal Behavior College has given me the knowledge and skills to further understand how to provide the best personalized care to each pet. When not caring for the pets of clients, I volunteer at a shelter as an advocate for the five freedoms for all animals. Pet care is my passion and is my full time career. My commitment to this line of work and my flexible schedule ensures my ability to meet the care needs of each client and their pets. The primary service I offer is providing care in clients’ homes. Whenever intaking new clients and pets, my first step is to schedule a complimentary meet and greet. During this meet and greet, I have a series of questions that I ask to ensure my understanding of exactly what is needed to care for each pet exactly as they need it. Safety and comfort of the pet is my top priority and pride myself on providing that peace of mind to clients.
“Poet was absolutely amazing with Bernoulli and Sunni. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and treated them like her own. She kept us updated, made us feel completely at ease, and our pups came home happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her and would trust her again in a heartbeat 🤍”
“Shelby was wonderful! She was available for a meet and greet just a few days before my trip and sent lots of great photo updates while I was away. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding when I had a last-minute change in plans—twice! I really appreciated how easy she was to work with and will definitely book with her again.”
“Carson went above and beyond taking care of our pups and on extremely short notice. He was really good with them and communicated excellently. Highly recommend him for your next booking. He doesn’t disappoint”

“It’s hard to put into words what a great pet sitter Miriah is. Let’s just say she’s kind, attentive, thorough; she gives above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone who’s interested in only the best for their animals.”
“Pooja was an absolute lifesaver! She took such wonderful care of my cat, Luna, while I was away. Luna can be a bit shy/cranky, but Pooja sent me regular updates and photos showing Luna happy and comfortable, which put my mind completely at ease. It's so clear she genuinely loves animals. I came home to a happy, healthy cat and a tidy home. I can't recommend Pooja enough – she's incredibly reliable, caring, and truly the best cat sitter you could ask for!”

About: Lifelong love for animals combined with hands on veterinary experience. I’ve loved animals since I was little, grew up wanting to become a veterinarian, and have owned pets my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I also worked for 3 years as a Veterinary Assistant, where I gained experience safely handling pets, recognizing changes in behavior, and helping animals feel comfortable in stressful situations. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’ll care for yours with patience, attention, and lots of love. Just like I would my own. Currently own a Orange Tabby Cat named Sammy who is the love of my life :) I’m currently a stay at home cat mom. This allows me to have open availability and flexible scheduling, so I can dedicate plenty of time to playing with, caring for, and giving attention to your pets throughout the day. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, trust, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any specific care preferences to help keep things consistent and stress free for them.

Highly recommend our pet sitter for the amazing care they gave my cat, Mina. It’s such a relief knowing Mina was in loving and dependable hands while we were away. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was clearly comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the kindness, patience, and attention they gave her. I would absolutely trust them again to care for my kitty.
Shelby is amazing! Our pets loved her and and she was great Scott sharing lots of pics of their happy faces while they played. Bonus: our house wasn’t destroyed in the process of having someone sit our pets while we were gone. 10/10 will want to hire Shelby again 🤍
Sara did an amazing job watching our two cats while we were away at our honeymoon. She kept us updated about the cats food, litter, water, how their personalities were dealing with the time away, and sent great pictures. She made sure to take the trash out each time and vacuumed frequently, making sure we came home to our place as we left it. It was so hard for us to leave our babies but she made it easier and we are super grateful!!
TLDR: Miriah is thoughtful, respectful, friendly, communicative, flexible, and above all an animal lover. Immediately I was put at ease as soon as I started talking to her about checking in on my feline for a two-week vacation. This was the first time I have used Rover and a sitter that I do not already know. Miriah was very friendly and had no issues with my cat and her orange spiciness. But what really struck me was how thoughtful and respectful she was to my home and even went as far as to leave my taps on during a freeze and was super flexible with booking! It was evident that she is an animal lover and also has quite a few cute ones of her own. She sets a high-bar. Thank you M! <3
My girls are friendly, but they LOVED Kelly, who was able to commit to my cats’ care at a moment’s notice due to a different, poor experience on Rover involving a last minute cancellation. Kelly delivered a gold-star standard of sitting. She is communicative and kind. I look forward to reaching out again when a sitter is needed, and I highly recommend others consider the same.
Logan did drop in visits for our 90 lb energetic puppy and did a great job!! Our pup loved him and was very responsive to him. Provided lots of photos and I felt he was in great hands. I would highly recommend his services and will absolutely use them in the future!
Peyton is extremely detailed with what your dog has eaten, pooped, peed, etc. She really cares for the well being of your animal and makes sure they are cared and loved for while you are away. My dogs enjoyed their time with Peyton. She goes out of her way to make sure their needs are met.
