“Sam was great at communication and adjusting to my schedule when I was out of town. Sam took great care of my cat and made me feel so much better about leaving her for two weeks! Thanks Sam!”
2. Brianna P.
“Brianna is a wonderful pet sitter! She has been to us numerous times and has administered insulin to our diabetic cat as well as looked after our other cat. She leaves detail summaries and photos which are always a comfort to see. I had a family emergency and requested her to come with only a few hours notice! She responded very quickly and it gave me peace to know our diabetic cat would be cared for. I highly recommend Brianna💚”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep understanding of animals at every life stage. With experience raising a puppy from four months old, I have honed my skills in training and socialization, ensuring your young pet grows into a well-mannered companion. Additionally, I have a special affinity for senior pets, having cared for my 18-year-old cat since he was a kitten. This unique experience equips me with the patience and knowledge to meet the specific needs of older animals, whether it’s managing health concerns or providing gentle companionship. Your pets will receive personalized, loving care tailored to their individual needs, ensuring peace of mind for you while you’re away. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly schedule, as I prioritize the well-being of all those in my home, including my disabled client and their furry companions. Each day begins with a routine that includes feeding, exercising, and spending quality time with the pets, ensuring they receive the attention they deserve. I carve out dedicated blocks of time throughout the week for walks, play sessions, and grooming, all while balancing my caregiving responsibilities. Flexibility is key; I adapt my schedule to meet the needs of both my client and their pets. Whether it's early morning walks or evening cuddles, I ensure that every pet receives the love and care they need. My experience in caregiving has taught me the importance of compassion and patience, qualities that I bring to my pet care as well. Your pets will feel cherished and secure in my home, making it a happy environment for everyone. I can provide exceptional care for pets in my home by creating a safe, nurturing environment tailored to their needs. With plenty of space for play and exploration, pets will feel comfortable and at ease. My routine includes regular feeding, exercise, and playtime, ensuring they stay active and engaged. I have a designated area for pet supplies, making it easy to keep everything organized and accessible. For those needing special attention, like medications or dietary requirements, I’m diligent about following instructions to ensure their well-being. With my experience in caregiving, I approach each pet with patience and understanding, providing companionship and affection. Regular interactions, like grooming and cuddle sessions, help build trust and ensure they feel loved. Your pets will receive personalized care and attention, making my home a welcoming retreat for them while you’re away.

“Thank you for doing drop-ins on short notice/request and treating my boys with love. They seem to be comfortable around you in such a short amount of time!”
9. Jeff E.
“Jeff is not only extremely dependable and caring but also extremely patient and gentle. When taking care of my dog he not only made sure to keep him active and happy but was extremely diligent when it came to any medical or food requirements making me feel more than comfortable to leave him in his care. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
10. Kelly M.
“Kelly is the sweetest person you’ll ever meet! With her bubbly personality and energetic spirit, your pet will have a new best friend in no time!”
11. Abby C.
“Abby did a great job juggling the needs of our dog and two cats. We loved getting pictures everyday! This was our first time using Rover and will definitely use it again and would definitely request Abby.”
12. Jillian O.
About: I have been pet-sitting since I was a child, and I have many clients who can vouch for me! I have a lot of practice hanging out with new pets and keeping them company while their family is away. I'm currently a graduate student and have tons of free time to hang out with your pets! I have a flexible schedule that changes from week to week. I respect people's belongings and do what the job requires! I'm comfortable feeding and walking pets, along with just hanging out if they need company.
13. Afnan Z.
“Afnan is so wonderful. I always know my kitty is in great hands when Afnan is watching her! I even joke that my kitty likes it better when I leave and her favorite cat sitter gets to come spend time with her. Perfect communication and flexibility. Thank you again 💜”
14. Frankie P.
“Thank you, for taking great care of my pups”
15. Jessie R.
“Jessie was incredible while we were out of town for a two week vacay. She was dependable and communicated very well to give us great updates on our 2 cats. She even was flexible when our travel plans changed and was able to accommodate additional visits on short notice. We would definitely recommend Jessie to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
16. Tilly C.
“Tilly has always been amazing with my two pupa (who can often be a handful)! She is very loving with them and always provides a very detailed report with lots of amazing pictures to tide me over while I'm away from them. The boys absolutely love her, and we couldn't recommend her more!”
17. Kalee S.
About: I have experience with a wide range of ages (puppy to senior), breeds (toy to giant), and species. I have been walking and sitting on another app for a few years now. I currently have three cats at home, so I enjoy spending time with other people’s pups as I can’t have one of my own right now! I am a full-time student but attend classes online, so my schedule is super flexible. I enjoy traveling and camping, but I typically know well in advance if I’m going on a trip, so my schedule should be accurate. Communication is important to me. I appreciate specific instructions so I can care for your pet with minimal disruptions to their daily routine. I don’t want to add to the stress of them missing their best friend! I am happy to provide as many or as few updates as you would like.
18. Katie C.
“Katie was the best pet sitter I had for my cat. She updated me well with pictures or if he had any concerning poops or behavior!”
19. Jacqueline C.
“Jacqueline has watched my dog for over 3 years now. I can always trust her to make sure they are well taken care of and most importantly loved. She’s came over for hours to days to weeks long stretches while I’ve been away.”
20. Viviane O.
“Vivi was really good to my Sully. Left me updates, gave extra pets, and even cleaned a little. Highly recommend!”
