Amanda is super friendly—she’s really responsible and patient with the cats, and she responds quickly too. She’s definitely a cat sitter you can feel totally comfortable booking. 😊

This is your sign to hire Shannon for all your pet care and pet sitting needs! Her Rover cards are the highlight of my day when I’m out of town. She is so thorough and cares for my cat, Sodapop, as if she were her own fur baby.

Brooke took great care of our dog and cat! She was reliable and thoughtful, and stayed with our dog until he ate each visit. Our grouchy cat even enjoyed her company and purred for her when she came over!

It was my first time using Rover, and as an anxious cat mom I was a little nervous, but Lindsay was a dream! She’s super responsive, detail-oriented, gives the kiddos good attention, and provides lots of pictures! I’ll definitely be using her again! Couldn’t recommend more!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 20 years. Purebred goldens, Corgi’s, Aussie Shepherds, and a variety of rescue dogs to name some. I work from home and have a fenced in yard. I really enjoy having visitors. I have a 3 day in advance cancellation policy. I’m minutes from the airport and many clients use me for longer stays during International travel. I’m able to give guests great attention. Love to show them a good time balancing entertainment, exercise, and rest. I’m usually able to do meet and greets. I have a fenced in yard and generally go outside with them or keep a close eye through the windows. I’m protective given the predators in the community.

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have also helped raise and care for other people's pets. I would be happy to take your dog on walks, potty breaks or for overnights. I can also visit your cat and give it love and attention when you're away. We have a 16lb dog ourselves who is very dog friendly. I work from home so I am available any day from 8am - 7pm for walks or potty breaks. If your dog prefers running we can talk about running as an option! I have a fenced in yard with a fence high enough for small and medium sized dogs. Our 16lb 5 yr old dog is very dog friendly.

About: I have years of experience caring for my own pets and pet-sitting for others. My experience includes all age ages and sizes of dogs and cats, including rescue animals, French bulldogs, pitbulls and Persian cats. I also have some experience with giving medication to pets and caring for small animals such as hedgehogs and rabbits. I love all kinds of animals and take pride in understanding and respecting a pet's unique needs and boundaries, such as petting and feeding needs. I look forward to giving your pet the same love and respect I give my own! Over this summer I am completely flexible as I will be attending university at the start of fall. I will have a very flexible schedule for both booking appointments and playing/walking with your animals. I like to keep a strict feeding schedule-which can fit to your pets needs if they already have one-and a minimum walk time of 30 minutes daily. Pets are allowed everywhere in both yard and home. If needed or wanted I am willing and happy to send daily photos and/or videos of your pet to you for peace of mind!

About: Caring for pets has been a big part of my life for many years. As a professional pet sitter and shelter volunteer with decades of experience, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable and loved while their humans are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always pay close attention to their individual needs, personalities and routines. I offer dog-walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and house sitting, and I'm happy to care for pets of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, or your pet needs company and attention during the day, or you need someone reliable to care for your home and animals while you're away, you can count on me! Pet owners can expect dependable care, lots of affection for their pets, and regular updates with photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pets stay happy, relaxed and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I do like to travel, but otherwise have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention and care they deserve. I'm available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare and house sitting throughout the week. I'm also available on weekends and holidays, making it easier for pet owners who need reliable care during busy times or while travelling. I always do my best to accommodate scheduling needs to provide dependable care whenever its needed. Your pet's safety, comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is for pets to feel secure and relaxed while their humans are away. I provide a calm, caring and attentive environment where pets receive plenty of love, enrichment and supervision. I carefully follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions to make sure they feel comfortable and stress free. Your pet will always be treated with kindness, respect and the same care I would give my own.

About: I love having dog friends around and so does my little dog Boo Boo. My dog is 17lbs and loves to play. I enjoy teaching dogs new tricks or brushing up on any training that needs to be done. I typically walk my dog 3 times a day and can accomodate more if needed. I also have a fenced in backyard that your dog is welcome to roam around in. I live 10 minutes from the airport which helps for easy drop off/pickup if you are traveling by plane. I know how special our dog friends are so I hope to treat them like part of the family when they are here. Dogs are such special little creatures and I'm so grateful we get to have them in our lives. I currently work at home 3 days a week and in the office 2 days a week. Adjustments can possibly be made if needed. If I'm watching your dog, I would plan to be home most of the time during their stay. I have a fenced yard and dogs are allowed to roam free in the house unless other needs are required. If your dog needs to be crated, I have a small kennel that can be used, otherwise a larger one will need to be provided. Dogs are expected to be potty trained unless they are still a puppy.

About: Hi! I would LOVE to spend time with your dog or cat. I can’t have a dog of my own in my small apartment so I am ready to give yours lots of attention. I have grown up on a hobby farm and have been around all kinds of animals my whole life. My family has owned a multitude of different breeds of dogs and I have been responsible to feed, exercise, bathe, train, etc. Feel free to reach out with any questions!!! I work full time so I am just looking to do some visits/walks in the evenings after 4:30! I can be more flexible on the weekends. I am happy to follow any requests or safety guidelines you might have. I can feed, walk, run, brush, and clean up after! I am careful to leave a clean home and can send as many pics/updates as desired!

I’m a student but have time for dog walks in the evening and on the weekends, I can provide drop in services on the weekends as well. Your dogs safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

Jessie did a great job caring for my lovely kitty, Cora, while I was out of town. She made sure that the food, water, and the litter box were all taken care of. No hungry kitty here. Since Jessie lives nearby, it was easy for her to run over, and I appreciated that. I would certainly recommend Jessie to anyone here on Rover for both her cat and dog caring skills.

We had a very late request for in-home visits and Josephine was able to accommodate for us and was very timely with her responses. She provided updates at every check in and even took our pup for a short walk on most visits! Can’t thank you enough Josephine, we will be requesting your help again in the future!!

Kelly immediately became such a special part of ours and our mini golden doodle, Lewis’, routine! We are so grateful for Kelly’s flexibility with our (sometimes unpredictable) schedule. We have had to make several last minute changes and Kelly is always responsive and adaptable. She’s intentional and takes several photos each time she visits Lewis and gives a thorough description of their time together. She plays with him and wears him out for when we return from work. Kelly is great to work with and so friendly!

I needed a sitter at the last minute when my family member had something come up and could not take care of my pups while my husband and I were on vacation and Roberta put my mind at ease. We travel for work, and it’s always so relieving knowing your pets are in great hands when you can’t take them with you.
