“Andrea has watched Raven(our kitty) two times now and each time we know she’s in good hands. Raven ran up to Andrea the last time we met up to go over instructions and gives her lots of purrs when she’s over watching her. It feels good knowing she likes her so much!”


“Lindsey is amazing! Strong communicator: responds quickly, always send pics & updates. She is kind and has experience working with spicy kitties like mine 😂 Always enjoy our interactions with her.”


“Hound is an absolute professional and joy to work with. I felt secure knowing that my pet was in his care, which was consistently nothing short of excellent. Strongly strongly recommend! 😊👏🙏❤️”


“Great experience with Matt! He were reliable, communicative, and took good care of our two cats during the drop-in visit. We appreciated the updates and felt confident our pets were in good hands. Would definitely book again and recommend to others looking for a dependable and caring sitter”


“Brittney was wonderful. I got an update and pictures with every visit. She took wonderful care of my cat while I was away, and I wasn’t worried for a second with him in her care. I would definitely recommend Brittney and would absolutely use her services in the future.”


“We asked Mia to drop-in last minute due to our regular walker having to cancel and she was very accommodating and quick to help! Would consider Mia for a regular walker if we needed it!”


“Callie did a great job with our girls! On time as scheduled and very patient and let the girls slowly warm up to her. She was so detailed in her note and sent us lots of great photos! Will definitely be using her again!!!”


“Mara was fantastic caring for my kitties while we were gone! She stepped up and provided excellent care for my cat, Ria, while she was recovering from an unexpected medical issue. I look forward to working with Mara again!”


“Joanna did an excellent job taking care of our kitties! She went above and beyond to cater to each of their unique needs. She also was able to make sure one of our cats got their medication. She also takes amazing pictures! It made us so happy to see our kitties while we were away and missing them. We would love to have her take care of our cats anytime. She made our first time using Rover so easy and an extremely positive experience!”


About: Hello! I’ve had a love for animals since I was young. I have two dogs, 2 year old male Havanese (Blue), and 4 year old female Lab (Belleray). I enjoy spending time with all dogs, and learning things about different breeds. I currently train my own dogs, and have grown so much over the years as a patient dog parent/trainer. I work from home and am able to care for your babies throughout the day. I frequently allow for dogs to go outside for potty breaks and to get zoomies out. I will always respect your needs, and your babies needs. I am able to safely walk your dogs and take them on outings. I am not afraid to get down and dirty to make sure your dog is well taken care of.

About: Hi! I’m Qwyn—a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for all kinds of dogs, from shy rescues to high-energy pit bulls. I specialize in tuning into each dog’s unique needs, and I’m confident handling reactivity, medication, and senior care with love and calm energy. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I form with every dog I meet. Whether your pup is a playful goofball, a nervous rescue, a senior who needs a little extra TLC, or a puppy just learning the ropes—I meet them where they are with love, respect, and understanding. I’m committed to creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care! I work full-time but I’m available for visits in the early mornings before work or in the afternoons and evenings after work. Depending on your location and your pet’s needs, I may also be able to swing by for a quick lunchtime drop-in. Weekends are wide open, so I’m happy to accommodate just about anything then! When I care for pets in a client’s home or take them on walks, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs so I can offer care that’s familiar and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding, medication, crating, or just sticking to your usual walking route. During walks, I always stay alert to our surroundings, and avoid situations that could make your dog uncomfortable. I’m confident reading body language and take a calm, reassuring approach with shy, reactive, or high-energy dogs. I treat every home with respect and provide regular updates so you can feel at ease about the care of your fur-baby while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel secure, supported, and cared for every step of the way!

“This is our first time using Rover and Kirsten was the best pet sitter for our introduction to the services. She made us feel really comfortable meeting with her and our cat (Mochi), prior to her visit with him. We loved seeing photo updates at each check-in, and so great seeing him out and not hiding, cause he's a shy boy until he feels comfortable. Thank you so much, Kirsten! 💙”


About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. I often dog sit for my parents and friends. I am very adaptable to the needs of any animal! I currently work full time day shift and always have weekends off. On the weekends, we like to take walks to the park to play or just stay home and cuddle up on the couch and watch movies. I have a fenced in backyard. I work 10 minutes from home so I am free to stop in and let dogs out throughout the day.

“Itzayana was fantastic!! Super responsive and thoughtful when caring for my puppy. Updates during stay and leaves a descriptive rover card with a picture. Definitely would book again :)”


About: I have cared for many dogs over the years. I love taking our Mokes to meet other dogs and exercise areas to meet new pups! I am also comfortable administering medications, and have been a nurse for many years. I love taking our dog everywhere I go and your dog would be treated, just like my own! Throwing a ball and long walks are what every dog loves, so let me help you with your busy schedule! I’m currently working full time during the day, most weekdays. I am available evenings, on the weekends and most all holidays! I can be very flexible with last minute needs. I have one very friendly chocolate lab, that loves to have new playmates! I can also easily crate your pup, if that’s what you prefer. We love to take walks to the nearby park and play fetch. I also like to watch animals in their own environment if that is where they are most comfortable!

About: I provide dog/cat sitting in your home. I just spent a week at a lady’s home watching her two dogs. One had an energetic personality and the other had three Legs! I helped him jump on the bed, walk down the stairs, and go for walks. I also pet sat for my friends mom. She has three dogs. All different sizes. I played fetch, made sure I got to her house on time to let them out, and fed on the desired times. I’ve also watched A Doberman, two border collies, one corgi, one Gordon setter, and last but not least an Aussie spaniel mix all in the same house. They were full of energy but very well mannered. I can give diabetic dogs shots as long as they behave. I also have experience with incontinent dogs and wheelchair dogs. I’ve watched horses, cats, goats, small animals including rabbits, geckos, chickens and fish. Please consider me for pet sitting your fury animals. I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you


“Anita F was fabulous! She took excellent care of our two dogs while we were away for a couple of days. We loved getting the pictures and updates every time she dropped by for the scheduled visits. We could enjoy our trip knowing that our pets were cared for lovingly and patiently!! Thank you Anita!!”
