“Kimberly is always wonderful with our cats, a 15 year old and a 2 1/2 year old. She is great every visit and gives detailed updates. We feel at ease when we travel as we know our fur babies will be well taken care of and loved. I highly recommend Kimberly, she’s the best!”

“Nathan is such a nice guy! :) He came in and loved on our animals (4 cats and 1 dog) for 2 days and we really enjoyed his services. Each animal has a different feeding method and Nathan took care of them no problem. Our high strung dog took to Nathan immediately which was awesome to see when he came over to meet them. We will definitely be using Nathan’s services when we’re away next!”

“Sirena is awesome! She took great care of our dog and indoor/outdoor cat. She even attended to my cat's injuries. She is quick to respond, reliable and just great altogether, even with all my little non-pet related requests. I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her. Thank you Sirena!!!!”

“Jada was an absolutely dream to work with. This is the longest we have been away from our cat and Jada took such good care of him. He trusted her right away and loved having her come over. She sent amazing pictures that made us feel at ease being so far away from our cat. We will definitely book again.”

“Vickie has been so great with coming to let my doggo out and feeding him dinner. She’s punctual and great at communicating! My dog loves her from what I can tell and look forward to having her as a consistent dog sitter for my pup. (:”

“Dear Rover Team, I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the outstanding pet care services provided by Cassandra. My experience with her has truly been five stars! From the very beginning, Cassandra demonstrated excellent communication and a deep understanding of Libbey's needs. Her consistency and attentiveness throughout my time away gave me peace of mind, knowing that my furry friend was in such capable hands. Would I recommend her? Absolutely! Cassandra’s professionalism and kindness made all the difference, and I am incredibly thankful for the care she provided. Thank you, Cassandra, for ensuring Libbey was well cared for while I was gone. Your dedication is truly appreciated! Warm regards, Ben”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. Once I moved out on my own, I got two cats, so I also have a lot of hands-on experience with cats and understand their personalities (and moods lol). I’ve been helping take care of family and friends’ pets since I was about 16, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while their owners are away. I’m really good at picking up on each animal’s personality—whether they’re super energetic, shy, or just want to chill and nap all day. I’m also comfortable taking care of other pets like fish, turtles, and similar animals. Overall, I just really enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re gone. I’m available most days, including some weekends! I’m an online student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can adjust my hours to fit what your pet needs. I offer drop-in visits and walks, and I always try to keep your pet’s routine the same so they feel comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and anything else they need. I do all care in your home since I have two cats of my own!
“Gisselle , was an amazing ! It was my first time using Rover and couldn’t have found a more perfect dog sitter for my fur babies ! She was trustworthy, reliable, and a great caregiver .

About: I’ve taken care of mine and my family’s pets since I was 14 years old. I’ve had multiple pets myself. I have reptiles as well! I do work at a frozen daiquiri company as a manager. I rarely ever go in to the actual stores. I make sure they all have everything they need to run. I just need a little something on the side I do know how to somewhat train, I personally trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. If any accidents happen inside they will be promptly cleaned and sanitized.

I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have owned dogs for most of my life. Over the years, I have also fostered and cared for dogs through K-9 Angels Rescue and BARC, gaining experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I currently have two friendly English Bulldogs of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. Dogs bring so much joy to my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them.

I have a secure fenced yard and can keep dogs separated if needed for everyone’s comfort and safety. When caring for your pet, I will follow your instructions and routines carefully to ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Every visit includes plenty of attention, up to 20 minutes of playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love. My goal is simple: to provide your pet with the same care, attention, and affection I give my own dogs.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend Vickie! Vickie has been wonderful with our two Golden Retrievers! Before her first official visit, she came over just to meet our girls, which immediately put both them and us at ease. By the time she left that day, the pups were already in love with her. Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals really shine through. We came home to two happy, relaxed girls and couldn't be more pleased. We've already planned to book her again — look no further for a dog sitter you can truly trust!

My doggo loves Carrisa! She does amazing and is always so accommodating + flexible to my plans, just absolutely the best 🌟 She will keep you updated, send you photos, and truly care for your pet. It takes a lot to find a person who you and your pet feel comfortable with, so I’m very happy to have found my dog’s sitter 💛🐶

Hailey was absolutely wonderful with our pup! She sent updates, photos and videos everyday of our happy boy. She took him on walks, gave him treats, gave fresh water and gave cuddles. Rudder was in great hands with Hailey and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch him. Definitely will be using her again in the future!
