I’ve noticed how different our kitties are when we come home after different people (even family and friends) have watched them. We have one kitty who is highly anxious, there have been multiple instances where we had vet trips following a weekend out of town because she was suddenly acting unusual/upset, or UTI’s, etc. All of which our vet treated and attributed to anxiety. I’ve stopped asking anyone other than Sara to watch them since then and what do you know - we haven’t had a single issue since! Happy healthy babies, she plays with them and loves on them like we would. It feels so good knowing we can leave when needed without worry. I also am an anxious cat mama and I know I probably ask a little extra care - Sara always goes above and beyond that. Highly recommend! Thank you!!

I've had Laura pet-sit for my senior cat Cecil many times, and she always follows through! He is happy to see her and to receive more food while I'm away (she sends me photos of him). She has pets herself who are well cared for. I would definitely recommend having her pet-sit!

Morgan was awesome with taking care of our four cats. I could not have asked for a better experience. I looked forward to getting the report and pictures of them each day. You can tell she is an animal person and my cats too right up with her, even our shy one. I would highly recommended using her to anyone and plan on booking again in the future!!

AJ is an absolute lifesaver when it comes to taking care of my dog, Hunter, and cat, Oliver. From the first time we met, I could feel their genuine love for animals, and it instantly put me at ease. AJ is not just a pet sitter, he’s become an extended part of our family. He always goes the extra mile, sending me updates and adorable photos, which always make my day. If you're looking for a pet caregiver who treats your fur babies with the same love and devotion as you do, AJ is your guy! I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of an exceptional pet caregiver.

Abby is absolutely great! She was so patient with our boys (our year old Belgian Malinois is a ball of furry energy) and our 9 year old cattle dog mix is blind. I've never had anyone come in and take care of my babies, but I trust Abby 100%. Thank you Abby and Rover for providing this service. She'll be the first person I call next time we go out of town!

About: I have volunteered at Animal Protective League for nearly 12 years. I am a lover of all animals big and small. Several family members have relied on me to care for their dogs and other pets during that time. Most of my experience is centered around cats as I foster kittens for my local animal shelter, but I did grow up with several dogs. I may not have a dog now, but I will do my best to care for each and every fur-baby that I meet. I am partially employed to a small business that gives me work opportunities when they need extra help. Unfortunately those opportunities are mostly seasonal so I won't receive any work until spring (if COVID doesn't get any worse). They do let me know if they need me several weeks in advance, and my open schedule can be adjusted accordingly if I am given a regulated schedule by someone who wants me to regularly walk/check in with their pet during the day. I have experience house-sitting and caring for my employer's animals. I make a daily schedule for my duties and keep in touch with my employer's in case that schedule changes or if I have any questions/comments about

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs in the past four years. My own and my moms dog. I know how relieving it is to have a helping hand when life gets busy. I’m able to help make sure your fur baby is accounted for, getting proper excersize and on your behalf. If you need services such as bathing, feeding meds, or cuddles — I can help with that too. I’ve raised two dogs in the past four years, so pet care is second nature to me. My pup, Ace, is stuck to my hip, so I am fully equipped for playtime, walks, and potty time throughout the day. If you have specifics needs for your fur baby, let me know. I will make sure to follow your instructions through out my visit. I’m trustworthy in all environments and will make sure your pup is having a great experience.

About: In my household we have 4 dogs, 6 cats, and a bunny, so I understand what it takes to take care of many different animals. I have also been watching neighbors and family friend dogs from walking them, letting them out, or staying at the house for a couple of nights for about 3 years now. I am home from college for the summer and working part-time right now, but I have plenty of time in the mornings and afternoon to play and walk your dogs!! My availability changes everyday as I have a retail job and it is not consistent but my calendar will always be up to date and I can always work around any schedule a client may have! In a clients home I will keep the fur baby safe by doing what the owner asks for, which can include crating the pup, always having it on a leash, and whatever else needs to be done.
