Fernanda was so helpful! We booked her last minute before a trip out of town for Memorial Day and she was able to accommodate us and stay at our own home with our two pups. She’s so responsive and gives updates every day. We are so glad to find someone who we can use in the future!

Danielle was great! She scheduled a meet-and-greet in advance where she asked thoughtful questions and saw our pup’s routine. She took great care of our house and sent lots of pictures throughout the stay which was much appreciated. Would definitely book with her again. Thanks again!

We’ve been using Hannah for a few months now and she’s the best! Super reliable, communicative, and always attentive to Azul’s routine. He has separation anxiety so there’s a few extra steps involved in his care, and she’s always so thoughtful about handling everything. It’s such a relief having someone dependable we can trust with him :)

The Best! Wayne and Jordan were amazing with my two rescue huskies while I was on vacation. The dogs are generally very cautious of strangers, and they were going through some sibling rivalry and needed to be kept apart - on separate floors of the house. Wayne and Jordan’s pet-sitting experience and patience were apparent in their daily communications and photos. It was great to see how the girls warmed up quickly! Each pup got lots of attention and exercise, and they were calm and happy when I got home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The icing on the cake - the bedding was all washed and the house was clean when I got home. Highly Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I went out to CO for Memorial Day Weekend and Paris hung out at my place with Zoe. Haven’t done this before but with Zoe being 14, I preferred to have her in the comfort of our home. Paris did a great job with Zoe and the house, and was great about giving me updates. I’ll definitely be hitting her up again when I go on vacation and cannot bring Z with me!

About: Hi! I’m a proud cat mom to two sweet kitties who are nearly two years old. I’ve always loved animals, but I have a special bond with cats and feel very confident caring for them. Over the years, I’ve helped friends and family care for their cats, feeding, playing, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them the attention they need while their humans are away. I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own. I’m available to stop by for feeding, litter cleaning, playtime, and snuggles (if your kitty is into that!). I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I'm usually available after 4 PM on weekdays, and I’d be happy to drop by in the evenings to feed, play with, and care for your cat(s). I can typically stay for a couple of hours to make sure they’re comfortable, entertained, and well cared for. On weekends, I’m more flexible and can stop by anytime. As long as I have a bit of notice, I’m happy to plan my schedule around your needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I make sure doors and windows are securely closed, keep an eye out for any hazards, and follow all instructions carefully, from feeding routines to litter box cleaning and favorite hiding spots. I always take the time to get to know each cat’s personality and comfort level, so they feel safe and relaxed while their humans are away. Whether they’re playful or shy, I go at their pace and provide gentle, attentive care. Trust is very important to me. I’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, and anything I notice, so you always know your pet is in good hands.

Angela took incredible care of our dog and our home while we were away for the weekend! From start to finish, she was extremely responsive, polite, and completely respectful of our space. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay with detailed check-ins and sent plenty of wonderful photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while away. It was clear our pup was happy, well-loved, and kept right on his routine. We couldn’t have asked for a friendlier or more trustworthy sitter. We’ll definitely be booking Angela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their dog!

Eric was fantastic! He was super communicative throughout the stay and clearly took great care of our apartment. He left everything in its place and even put back on the calming YouTube dog video we'd left on for our dog before we left. He sent us lots of photos of our pup, and it was obvious he was in good hands the whole time.

About: I’ve jumped at every opportunity to take care of friend’s and family members’ dogs since I was in elementary school! I’ve taken care of dogs with varying medical needs and across a range of breeds. I truly find any time spent with animals a gift, and I’m excited to begin my journey on Rover and help take care of yours. I am a teacher on summer break, so my availability is more than usual! I can walk dogs or drop in between 9:30 am and 12 pm or between 2:30 pm and 7 pm. However, beginning the last week of August, I will only be available after 4 pm due to my full-time job. I aim to begin fostering animals soon, but my residence is currently pet free, so I’ll have time to focus on your fur babies! I have experience with dogs across a spectrum of needs and have experience orally providing medication. As a teacher and dog-lover, I am patient and will work to create a safe environment that is attuned to the needs of your pet(s).

Sarah was absolutely wonderful—we couldn’t have asked for a better dog and house sitter. She stayed with our two miniature schnauzers for four days and took exceptional care of both the dogs and our home. We’ve had some not-so-great experiences with Rover in the past, so we were honestly a bit hesitant going in—but Sarah immediately put us at ease. She was communicative, responsible, and clearly cared about our dogs as if they were her own. We came home to two very happy pups and a house that was just as we left it. Truly a seamless experience from start to finish. 10/10—we will absolutely be using her again for all of our pet sitting needs!

Lauren was very communicative, left the apartment extremely clean, followed instructions, and took good care of our dog. When our trip got extended by a few hours, Lauren was very understanding and accommodating of staying with our dog a bit longer to close the gap. My neighbor also reached out saying that she saw Lauren with our dog in the hallway of our building and that she was doing a great job with her. Overall, we would definitely hire Lauren again!

Amy is a gem! We did not plan on having a small kitten along with our two adult cats when we planned a trip, and realized a house sitter was needed to continue monitoring and acclimating our cat fam. Amy responded to all communication promptly, sent pics and updates throughout, and left our house immaculate. We came home to cats who were relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Amy's services, she is a trustworthy professional.

Sarah was a wonderful overnight sitter for our senior dog. It is obvious that Sarah loves dogs and that she has a huge amount of experience with pups of all ages, including dogs like mine that require daily medicine. Sara is very conscientious and carefully reviewed my written instructions before I left to make sure she was providing the care (from food to walks) that I was requesting. She also sent updates and photos while we were gone and left my house quite tidy. I was very pleased.

Ava was incredibly responsive, shared frequent updates & photos, and not only did she provide the absolutely best care for Winston, she kindly also watered my plants. Please, if you need to leave your furry family member behind on a trip, reach out to Ava!!!

Halle watched our Pomeranian over the weekend at our house and she was fantastic. Our dog has anxiety and requires daily medication, which Halle handled well. She did a great job gaining the trust of our little Pom who can be difficult and hide away from strangers when we are out of town. She also left our house cleaner than we left it and was super communicative all weekend with updates and pics! Will definitely have Halle watch her again :)
