“This was my second time booking with Virginia this summer and I fully expect to book with her again soon. She sends tons or pictures and thorough updates on my kitty and I can tell she’s in good hands!”

“Not all petsitters understand cats, but Michael clearly does and enjoys getting to know their individual personalities. He did an outstanding job of maintaining our two cats' normal meal schedule while we were away and giving them the attention they love to get.”

“This is the second time Ann has checked in on Sweets, and she continues to be dependable and communicative! Will definitely book with her in the future!”

“Justin and Jasmine are the absolute best!! They took such great care of our dog!! They are always so relatable!! They even left us the cutest ornament of our dog!! We love them so much!!”

“Amelia was great, she actually got my shy girl to come to her on multiple occasions. She took good care of my kitties while I was gone and left my home in order as well. Highly recommend her and will be using her again, she really helped me enjoy my trip knowing that everything was safe and well at home.”

About: I'm here to lend a helping hand in caring for your furbabies. Mine are my world! I don't know that I've ever been without pets. I'm that person that stops traffic to help a turtle cross the road. I've saved many strays. We've fostered multiple sets of pups from the local shelters & I have experience with bottle feed babies, both pups & kittens. I have & have had many pets throughout my life & that's where my experience comes from. Dogs of all sizes, young & old. I can give medications if needed. I would love to help you out when you need someone to step in & care for them for a bit. I will treat them as I would my own. I work a full time job M - F, 8:00 - 4:00, but my job is Hybrid, so I work from home 3 days a week. So aside from meetings, I can fit in drop-in visits most anytime. I can also, stop by prior to & after work as well. My schedule is pretty flexible. I have multiple pups & even more cats. I have a fenced in backyard that our babies thoroughly enjoy being able to roam & explore daily. During my visits, I will care for your baby however you've instructed because I know it's beneficial for them to stay on their own schedule. A couple of mine have high anxiety so I fully understand the benefits of staying home & keeping schedules as much as possible. If they don't have a fence & need walks, I will welcome the additional steps.
“She is a very caring and attentive girl when it comes to taking care of my pet. She took exceptional care of my dog despite his disability. She is a responsible and kind person.”

“I love the updates Isabella provides regarding her care for Pepper. You just know she’s interactive and caring. Knowing Isabella is there makes it less difficult to leave our sweet pepper girl.”

About: Growing up we were a pet family - included cats, dogs, rats (I know), hamsters, fish, and reptiles. As an adult I have been responsible for caring for the pets of my friends and family. Including "high maintenance dogs, e.g requiring medication 3 times a day, needing an ointment on their skin etc. I have looked after dogs and cats ranging from a few months to end of life care, including those visually impaired. I currently have no pets of my own so am looking forward to devoting my care to your pet. My full-time job is flexible in terms of hours and I can work from home if your pet needs extra attention. This allows for the flexibility for scheduling walks or boarding. I am available most days for all activities depending on the day. I have a pet friendly home in a beautiful area of Midtown so if walks are needed it the best environment. Other pets would need their homes if they require (crate, terrarium etc). I live in a clean, calm, environment that all pets can enjoy.
“Aleigha was incredible!!! Super nice and friendly and was so patient with my fur babies! One of my dogs is super timid and scared and sometimes doesn’t eat when I’m not around. Aleigha was wonderful enough to try hand feeding to get him to eat and it worked! If you’re looking for a pet sitter she’s the one you want!!”

“Katherine is absolutely amazing!! She has been coming over multiple times to help take care of our dog Nina and making sure she is well taken care of while we are out of town!! So great, thanks!”
About: I have pet sit for family and friends. I been around and taken care of animals my whole life. I have helped rehome a few animals in my lifetime. I have a full time job but I’m trying to make this my main job so I can be available to the animals as they need me. To be available to walk and play with. I can take care of animals in their own homes. Im not able to do so at my home. Im also not available for overnight stays right now. Available for drop ins and walks. I can take them to their vet appointments and grooming appointments if needed.
“Callie did drop in visits for our two cats while we were on vacation, she went above and beyond for their care and even water my plants.We were able to relax knowing they were in good hands.We highly recommend her.”

About: I wanted to be a veterinarian for about 15 years. Volunteered with vets, worked at animal shelters, and now I frequently walk/pet sit animals in my neighborhood! I’m a medical student, so my schedule can vary week to week but I will never take on a sitting during a time where my schedule prevents giving an animal the best care possible. I have a fenced in yard, but love taking pups for walks when they need it! I’ll make sure your animals get the care they deserve whether it’s at my house or yours!
About: I grew up with a Labrador/Rottweiler mix and have loved dogs ever since! I’ve helped family and friends take care of fur babies of every size and age, from Dobermans to Shih Tzus. I currently work full time as an accounting clerk during the day, but I’m able to be with your pet in the evenings on weekdays and anytime on the weekends! I am unable to board in my home as my apartment doesn’t allow it, but am available for pet sitting in your home and always available for walks! I will always treat your pets like they are my own! While I am unable to board pets in my home (as my apartment doesn’t allow it) I will take proper safety precautions in your home and/or on walks.
Rickarby pet parents share their Rover experiences
We can't say enough about Priya. Her communication was great and she took such good care of our pups. I was a little worried because we were staying at a campground and they were in a strange place. She sent pictures to put my mind at ease and the pups loved her. We hope to use her again when we come back next year.
