“Blair is very attentive and affectionate with our cat, Alex. He is very comfortable with her and she plays with him a lot which makes him happy. She is prompt and reliable and I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Christine was so kind and generous with our three dogs! She was always on time and went the extra mile to help clean up a pillow catastrophe from our very anxious lab! We will definitely be asking her to watch our babies again!”

“I could tell Lucy loved every second she was under Irene’s care with every photo/video she sent. Great communication and even better care. Everything was handled perfectly and came home to a very happy and well taken care of cat. I will definitely be booking Irene again.”

“Michelle was absolutely amazing and reliable with my cat! She made being away super easy and I never had to worry as she kept me updated. I definitely recommend her, your pet will be in good hands!!”

“Maya was fantastic. She took such good care of our 3 kitties for 2 weeks. She went out of her way to make sure they were ok during the snowstorm and cold. She gives them attention (plays, grooms etc), and ensures they eat, have fresh water, checks their wellbeing. (Also the litterboxes were well maintained - she even put the garbage out) We are impressed - her compassionate care and love for our furries shows through everything she did — in addition she looks after your house (all is clean, plants were checked, etc…)- (we had water issue she reported immediately and helped clear) . She communicates frequently and keeps you posted — in a nutshell if you look for someone for your pet — we would not hesitate to recommend Maya and certainly hope she is available for our next trip. We could not be happier.”

“This was the first time I used Jenna’s casting services. She did a wonderful job and was a super communicator, sharing photos and updates of my cat. I definitely would recommend Jenna and I will be using her services soon!”

“Ashley was prompt and really responsible! She took very good care of my cat. And she was very sensitive to what my cat likes and dislikes. I recommend her highly!”

“Elizabeth consistently exceeded expectations! She took the time to keep my boys happy, took them onto my balcony every day, and was so thorough that my separation anxiety was gone despite being in another country. An added bonus is all the pictures she takes-I definitely have saved some of the super silly ones and they make me happy!”

“Maria was super communicative and followed instructions. It made my time away from my kitties much less stressful to know she was taking care of them! Thank you!”

“Brian was absolutely wonderful with our Bernedoodle puppy Oreo! Despite Oreo being a 60+ pound bundle of adolescent energy, Brian handled him with patience, confidence, and ease. He was always on time, professional, and genuinely caring. Oreo absolutely loved his visits and that says everything. Highly recommend Brian without hesitation. Will definitely book again!”

“Bito is hands-down terrific! Really went above and beyond. Clearly won over the hearts of our cats, and even convinced our shy recluse to allow some pets — very impressed! I would trust Bito to cat sit or house sit without any reservation whatsoever. Highly recommend without any reservation whatsoever. Bito left my house cleaner than when I left for vacation, and watered my plants too :)”

About: I have owned my own kitties for 15+ years. I have also fostered medical and special needs cats and dogs for 3 years as well. I will love your babies like my own! I am currently not working so I am available full time. I do require 1 days notice for bookings and 1 day cancellation. However, please feel free to contact me to discuss specific times and details. I have a big 2 bedroom condo and 2 kitties who love other animals! I am also able to follow any crating instructions your pet may require.
“Malina is very easy to work with and a pleasure to interact with. She took great care of my silly pups and I would happily recommend her to anyone. Looking forward to working with her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 2. I have looked after dogs, cats, and guinea pigs of various ages since 12. I love caring for pets and have a dog of my own! I also volunteer at animal shelters when I have the chance. I’m working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pet! During summer I will especially have loads of availability. I have a crate trained dog who is very friendly and can keep your pet company. I have a spacious apartment but am flexible to take care of your pet wherever!
“Amy did a great job taking care of our extremely shy cat while we were away, even coaxing her out of her hiding spots for treats/petting. We received updates from Amy daily and notes about how our cat was doing, and felt very comfortable that she was in good hands.”

“Karenna did a great job at cat sitting while we were away, we couldn’t have left her in better hands. While our fluffball is very shy, she did her best to try and bond with her. Eventually got to pet her! Definitely would recommend.”

Riderwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
As a first-time Rover user, I was nervous, but Blair completely put my mind at ease. She is incredibly caring, gentle, and reliable with my two cats. She communicated constantly and sent tons of pictures, which I loved. I’m so thankful for her help and will definitely book her again!

Ashley took wonderful care of my two cats, one of whom is diabetic and requires insulin injections every 12 hours. Ashley was very reliable and always on time. She gave detailed updates and took cute pictures of my babies. She also was willing to water my newly planted trees. We are so glad to have found such an excellent sitter!

Sean and his partner Paulina were quick to respond to all messages and showed up on time, both to our meet and greet and to all three cat-sitting sessions while we were out of town. Our two babies were well fed and watered, and the more social one got some attention and play from Paulina too. The shy guy had a cleaned litter box to use when he came out of hiding after they left, but before that they even watered the flower baskets on our porch as a heat wave was starting. Thanks again Sean and Paulina!

Brina is incredible with our two cats. She really cares for them and pays attention to what they want, and actively engages with them in playtime and cuddles while at our house. She sends great photos, is extremely responsible and communicative, and gives us peace of mind when traveling. I can't recommend her enough!!

Elizabeth consistently exceeded expectations! She took the time to keep my boys happy, took them onto my balcony every day, and was so thorough that my separation anxiety was gone despite being in another country. An added bonus is all the pictures she takes-I definitely have saved some of the super silly ones and they make me happy!

Brian was absolutely wonderful with our Bernedoodle puppy Oreo! Despite Oreo being a 60+ pound bundle of adolescent energy, Brian handled him with patience, confidence, and ease. He was always on time, professional, and genuinely caring. Oreo absolutely loved his visits and that says everything. Highly recommend Brian without hesitation. Will definitely book again!

Paul was a life saver. I had to leave my almost 5 month old Bernedoodle for the first time for a work trip and was quite nervous about it. Ozzie and I have become super attached to each other this winter stuck at home. Paul jumped in and did daily visits for me- even took him on walks in the 20 degree icy conditions. Ozzie did great with him and I couldnt be happier. We also have an 11 year old that enjoyed Paul’s company. They played a lot of ball together and he wore my little babies out!

Jackson took great care of our two dogs for 8 1/2 days, coming by 4x a day. One of our dogs is 16 and recently had ear surgery and was on an antibiotic and had no issues. Jackson communicated well w me while in a 5 hour time zone difference. Would definitely hire again. Thank you Jackson!
