“Kelly & Tyler did a very good job taking care of my cats. My cats don't get along so, Kelly watched one of my cats in her house. Came to my house everyday to take care of the other. All went well. Highly recommended.”
“Sarah by far was the best kitty sitter we have ever had. Not only did she give us daily updates on our senior kitty, she gave him lots of love and attention. Knowing she was with every step of the way let us really enjoy our vacation without stress. We would definitely hire Sarah again and have already booked her for March 2025. Thank you Sarah!❤️”
“Rose was great! This is the first time my husband and I used the Rover app. It’s hard to trust a stranger to watch our fur babies, but once we met Rose, we could tell she was easy to trust. She sent us daily updates and loved on our two kitties while we were away. Not having to worry about the cats helped make our trip that much more enjoyable. Would highly recommend her! Will 100% use her in the future. :)”
“Shachel did a great job caring for our 2 kitties while we were out of out of town for a couple weeks. She was responsible, reliable, and loving to our cats and they felt very safe with her calm energy. We will definitely have her petsit for us again!”
“Annmarie stayed with my 3 cats (one of which is seriously ill) for 5 days. She administered medication, fed them, played with them and cleaned up after them. She sent pictures and updates multiple times. My house was clean and today when I got home, and most importantly, my cats were healthy and happy. I would absolutely use Annmarie again; she was great!”
“Angelina was very professional, and her personality is great. She cares about the animals and took great care of my cat and was very prompt. I will be calling her again to come take care of my kiddo.”
“Xenia was so good with our kitties. We loved having someone we trusted take care of our babies while we were gone and it was so comforting knowing they were happy. She sent pictures and even was able to get our shy girl to come out while she was there. We would use Xenia again in a heartbeat and are so grateful we found her!”
About: I’ve loved and taken care of animals since I was a kid. My family used to call me the dog whisperer because I was the family and friend pet sitter. I have some training experience from my own pets and those of my family. I am a firm believer that a pet is truly a part of the family and should be treated as such! I work from home and can house dogs during the day. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings and bringing a furry friend along sounds like such a treat! Weekend hikes are also more enjoyable with company! My dog is like my child. She gets love and affection all throughout the day and as often as I can afford. I also have a large fenced in yard that my pup loves to run in all the time. I do my best to keep my pup happy and healthy. I want her to live a long and happy life.
“Livvi was great with Theo, my cat. This was the first time using rover and she was very helpful. She was really good about keeping me posted on anything that was happening while I was away. Highly recommend.”
“Maddy has been very professional, prompt and respectful. My animals adore her and she spends the time to cuddle with my older dog during her drop ins. Highly recommend her services!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we chose to book Elizabeth. She was phenomenal! She was attentive, left detailed info on each of her visits and followed all of our instructions to a T. She was mindful to lock up and close everything just as she was asked. She is so very sweet, kind, showed up on time and I’m very impressed with her and our first Rover experience. Will definitely seek out Elizabeth next time we need a sitter!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years, and it’s truly something I love doing. Caring for both dogs and cats brings me so much joy-I treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping their routine steady while you’re away. I’m here to make sure your furry family members feel safe and loved. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. I’m able to stick to their routines for feeding, walks, and companionship, helping them feel safe and relaxed. I follow each pet’s routine closely to make sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own home. From feeding and walks to playtime and snuggles, I give them the attention and care they need while you’re away.
About: I grew up loving animals- we had cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, and even mice. I took in 2 stray kitties during college and dog sat for the hockey team. (Puppies and senior pups). I administered medications and even put on diapers. (I’m a nicu nurse so I’m great at that). I’m very active and have lots of time off so I figured what better way to spend my time than doing what I love. My fiancé and I are currently building a house so we can hopefully expand our pet family soon! I currently have a cat named Louie we adopted him at just 8 weeks old, he’s our pride and joy. I work nightshift as a nurse so I pretty much have every other week off with a couple days in between. On the days I do work I’m able to walk in the mornings and take a quick nap during the day. (My fiancé also works from home). I will try to keep more of my availability during the weeks I don’t work so I’ll be home all day :) I don’t have a yard but love to go outside and go on walks. I don’t mind going out frequently at all. We have hardwood floors just in case accidents do happen! Regarding clients homes, I will respect their home and their rules. I will use a crate and clean up poop!
About: During Covid, I was laid off and it turned into a wonderful experience of being able to dog sit. I was watching 5 dogs on a regular basis, feeding, playing, napping, and loving on each and every one of them. I absolutely love dogs, I have taken care of small to big dogs and they are all my favorite!! I worked at an animal shelter and gained a lot of animal knowledge and experience from there I am currently working a full time job Monday through Friday until 3PM, with occasional weekend shifts. I am able to do drop in, house sitting, and walkings in the afternoons. I can provide lots of love, attention, and stimulation to your pets. I am very active but also love to relax and provide cuddles if your pet is more on the mellow side of activity. I am happy to clean up any messes, and follow any particular instructions of care you may have for your pet.
About: My experiences as a pet owner have been fairly long, with extensive time spent caring for senior dogs. I got my first dog at 4 and he lived until I was 21. He was a stubborn old grump. I have experiences with puppy care as well of course, and am very aware of gestures. I approach all animals in the same way I approach kids, meaning I respect their boundaries and don't push them to engage with me. Mostly I am free for pet care with the exceptions of Thursdays and Sundays which I have assignments due, and spend those days catching up on my studies. In a client's home, I try to build a relationship with their little furbabies without encroaching too much on their space. Say for instance, if your dog likes to hide away in the kennel, I'll give them time before attempting to coax them out for potty breaks. Whatever the clients rules are, goes of course.

Tamey P.
“We found Tamey a little over 4 years ago, and she’s been an absolute blessing ever since. From the start, her calm and caring nature put both us and our dog, Milo, completely at ease. Over the years, she’s become like extended family—not just to us, but to Milo too. He gets so excited every time he sees her, which says everything about the love and attention she gives him. Tamey is reliable, thoughtful, and always goes the extra mile. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a longer stay, we trust her completely. We truly don’t know what we’d do without her!”
