“We are so happy to have found Vivian! After a recent medical issue, one of our cats now needs more supervision than our previous cat sitter could offer. We were worried about finding someone we would feel comfortable with for our first trip away since dealing with this issue. Vivian was super responsive throughout the booking and meet and greet stage. Both of our cats seemed very comfortable around her! We got many cute photos and updates while we were away. When we came back, both cats were happy and at ease. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a new cat sitter!”

“Fiona was a great dog-sitter for my girl Cookie! She was communicative, showed up on time, and did great with Cookie. I felt confident that she understood my instructions for Cookie’s care and I felt very comfortable leaving her with Cookie. I also really appreciated the pictures she took of Cookie throughout their time together (it def helped to give me peace of mind). We are looking forward to seeing Fiona again 🎉🐶”
“Hannah did an amazing job taking care of our dog while we were vacationing. She even tended to the garden and kept the house just as clean as when we departed. You won’t find a better caregiver on this app.”

“Fuliang was great. Would definitely let him house sit again. This was our first time using Rover. We were away for 4 days. He stayed at our home and watched our two dogs. He sent us picture updates when they went for walks. There were no issues and the house was in good order when we returned.”

About: I create a calm, attentive environment where pets feel safe and relaxed. I host only 1–2 dogs at a time so each one receives plenty of personal attention. I’m certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki, and I’m very tuned in to each pet’s personality and energy so they settle in quickly. I’m also comfortable caring for cats, administering medications when needed, and supporting senior pets with gentle care. Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I host only 1–2 dogs at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.
“Patti was warm and friendly and took excellent care of my home and pup while I was away. She made time to understand our needs and routines, and went the extra mile to ensure our dog enjoyed some of her favorite walks. I returned home to a happy puppy and an impeccable home.”

“Virginia was a lifesaver! We needed a dog/house sitter last minute, and she gladly accepted without hesitation. She even showed up at 5 AM when we were panicking about our puppy Chico barking and the neighbors possibly complaining. That alone already meant so much to us. She took such great care of Chico, played with him, kept him entertained, and he genuinely seemed to have an amazing time with her. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house, which says everything about how thoughtful and responsible she is. We’re super grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommended! 💛🐾”

“Danielle was wonderful with our dog, Hop! We’ve never used a dog sitter outside of the family with him before, and of course we were a bit anxious about the whole thing, but Danielle put us at ease with her passion & knowledge about animals, clear communication and consistent updates on Hop while we were gone. We’re so lucky to have found someone we can trust when we need our little man looked after!”

“Liz was amazing! She stayed in our home with our dog for a week and our pup was very happy :) Liz played with her on a daily basis, made sure she ate and got her exercise and always kept in contact with me with updates and pictures. We plan to use her in the future!”

“Tracy was a great!! My dogs absolutely loved her, they seemed absolutely calm and happy when we walked thru the door, which is the ultimate test! She was quick at responding and very professional efficient and friendly! I’ll be using her services again! Diane”

“Irina was calm, patient, and thoughtful with our dog-child, Sally. She met us ahead of time for a meet and great, and asked great questions. She really took such great care of our girl! She also took such great photos, which made us feel so comfortable and happy that she was there. Not to mention, she also left the house so clean. We are so grateful to have found her, she’s such a gem.”

“Emma was beyond magnificent! Our Dog Dario is 15 years old and is his health is failing sadly so we needed someone who could attend to his challenging needs, meds and pain, etc. Emma was incredible with her love, care, keeping us posted with pictures and ensuring our home was properly maintained and safe for all. Emma is very responsible, compassionate and a solid, respectful provider. We will keep using her as long as she can accommodate Dario's challenges in the time he has left with us. I strongly recommend Emma and she exceeded all of our expectations truly. Dr. Larry and Cathy Bienati”

“Mario is awesome with both of our dogs. He was also a great houseguest. He left the house in tiptop shape and the dogs were very happy and well taken care of. We will definitely use Mario again!”

Derek was amazing!! Booking him was last minute for us, yet he let us feel at ease with quick responses. He was very communicative and kind. It took my two babies time to adjust, but he was patient and at the end they loved him! He sent so many photos and videos and we would absolutely book with him again!!

Ella was excellent! Our dog was shy getting to know her but she came for multiple walks prior to our trip so they could get to know each other. She was kind and patient each time letting our dog go at her own pace. Ella sent updates and pictures regularly to let us know things were going well with both animals and followed all our instructions. (I'm also pretty sure the house was cleaner than when we left as well!) We will absolutely be hiring Ella again in the future, thank you for your care!

Alyssa was very responsive all the way from when we first reached out to when we had her watch our dog for 3 nights in our home. She was considerate to our energetic dog when we did a meet n greet before scheduling her. She was a super sitter and we look forward to working with her again!
