“I was unable to meet n greet but it didn’t matter - Kristi is as professional as they come. She was mindful of being present with my cat instead of just putting food and water in a bowl. She was kind, patient, and understanding of his needs. Thanks for everything!”
“Madison was great! Our shy but sweet kitten warmed up to her really fast and I think they had a great time! Madison was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos. She also offered to help out with other house things which was so kind!! Thank you!”
“This was my first time leaving my kitties for a week, I was nervous but Emily put me at ease. She provided daily pictures, videos and updates on how they were doing. She went above and beyond. I trust Emilly to take care good care of my cats and house. I will definitely be booking her again for future drop in visits and house stays. Thank you!!”
“Renee took care of our two cats over a long weekend and did a great job! She was super responsive and has a great knack for animals. We felt so much better that they had a good caretaker looking in on them. Will definitely use Renee again!”
“I am very happy to have chosen Christiana to take care of my kitties over the weekend. It was my first time leaving them alone but I believe they had a really good time. Christiana came to meet them a couple of days before and I could feel that she truly cared about cats and animals in general. I have already booked her for another weekend. I would like to recommend her to the Rover community!”
“She sent pictures everyday and my cats were fed and happy. When I came home after a week they didn’t seem stressed at all, which they would if I had left them alone for a weekend. Would rebook with her!”
“Leslie is amazing. She takes great care of our fur babies and always does a little extra that helps us know things will be fine while we are gone (water plants, bring in mail, etc).”
“We've hired Amber to take care of our two felines several times and she's been great. Excellent communication, on-time, and shows wonderful care for our animal family. We highly recommend her.”
“Kiarra reliably visits Boo, although my ‘scaredy cat’ is not the greatest ‘host’. She refuses to come out, but when I return, she is well fed, clean, and ready to play. I strongly recommend Kiarra.”

I am available after 5:30 Monday-Friday and weekends are open morning -evening if available. I live in a single family home. I do not have a partially fenced in yard, but I would stay with your pet to ensure their safety and not getting loose! I can come to your home for drop in visit or to take your furry friend for a walk. I am available weekends for boarding in my home. I am open to weekdays although I work during the day. I am away from home 8-9 hours with the ability to go home at lunchtime.
“Kaitlin took great care of our two dogs, respected our home and was accommodating to our special needs dog. We would recommend her services and will book with her again in the future!”
About: I have years of experience with cat and dog care - from drop-in visits to weeks long vacations for family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I've watched cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. I've administered medications including pills, chews, and liquid. I love playtime, walks, and quick hangouts! I am a full-time teacher during the school year, so pet care is perfect for my summers and weekends. During the summer, I am readily available most days. I am comfortable entering a client's home to care for their pet in their own safe environment. I always be sure to follow instructions on entering/leaving. I am a cautious, caring sitter. If your pet is wary of newcomers, I will be sure to provide them with patience and trust.
“Mariah was incredibly respectful, caring, and kind when it came to caring for our two cats. We received a plethora of photos each day. She played with them, checked their litter box, and cuddled each and every visit. Our cats were thrilled. She was flexible and attentive to their needs. I highly recommend her to anyone that would ask!”
About: I’ve had 2 dogs since I was 5 years old, and watched many around my neighborhood as well. I walk my own dogs frequently and looking to add a couple more in to fill my spare time. I am a full time nurse, but with a nurses schedule, I often have days off during the week. I would love to help those out who need their dog to be walked during a busy work day or any other life events that leave you in a bind. I am an animal lover and will treat your dogs with the most love and care during our walks plus keep them exercising and happy!
About: I currently have 2 cats of my own. I have 10 years of dog and cat sitting experience and 5 years experience working with dogs and cats professionally. I have worked with hundreds of pets and have dealt with all temperaments. I have experience administering oral medications and with dog training. I am currently working part time so I am available for dog walks, dog or cat drop ins, or boarding most days of the week. I will treat your pets like they are my own! I try to make them as comfortable with me as possible, mimicing their regular home routine as much as possible when staying with them.
About: No matter the size or age, your animal(s) will get the same love from me as they get from you. I do this full-time so I am free any time to care for your furry loved one(s)! I am flexible with the exercise that your pet(s) may need, whether that be long walks/runs or a quick walk around the block. I will create an engaging, loving and caring atmosphere where your pet(s) can let out their energy in a healthy way! I treat pet(s) as they are a part of the family. I want to make sure your pet(s) are getting the attention and love needed so you can have the peace of mind knowing that they are in great hands and being taken care of.

Megan L.
“I have known Megan for over 40 years. She is an excellant person and cares very much for her family and friends. She grew up with a couple of Goldens. The first one was not very pleasant but as a young person she handled it very well. The second one was an angel she obviously handled that well. Currently she has the pleasure of hanging out with three German Shepards(one of them is mine), with very differnt personalities, being able to cope with Trouble, Cranky and Sweet can be a challenge, especially when navigating them with kids, who don't really understand the difference. She is a very responsible mother of two, who is doing her best to raise a family in today's world. I can't say enough good things about her.”

I have had a dog for 3 years now, and I have always trusted her to take care of him and make sure he stays a happy pup. I have always known Julia to be compassionate and focused, and I am confident she will make other peoples pets feel well loved and safe when their family isn’t around, just as she does with her students!”

Kristi did a great job taking care of our colony--7 cats--which is a tall task. She fed them, cleaned out the litter, picked up some barf/hairballs, gave them treats, and generally took care of everything we needed for the cats while we were away. She provided updates on all the cats, including any health/behavioral details that might be concerning. She sent us photos (of the ones that weren't hiding) which was very reassuring. The cats seemed to enjoy getting attention from her as well. We'll for sure have Kristi come by again next time we're out of town.
Taylor visited my cats twice a day for the last week. I wasn't sure she would even see them as they tend to hide from unfamiliar people. On her first visit, she sent pictures of both cats relaxing next to her. It was an amazing feeling and my vacation so much more fun because I knew my babies were in good hands, Thank you Taylor, My cats hope to see you again.
Candice took great care of our kitties while we were away on vacation! She was great with communication and did all requested care tasks while also bringing in packages and cleaning up after messes made by our mischievous cat. Both of our cats seemed to warm up to her immediately, even our more timid cat that typically hides from all humans that aren’t us. We will definitely look to book Candice again for future drop in visits.
Christabel was great! She came to do a meet and greet about a week before we went on vacation, and while here asked if we wanted her to water plants, bring in mail, etc. She was very conscientious and updated us twice/day on the pets. When we got home home both were happy and well cared for. Will hire again!
Alyssa is our go to for when we need a cat sitter. She’s very thoughtful and goes beyond just checking on the cats. Without asking she’s brought in packages that arrived early and fixed our cat feeder. We sincerely appreciate everything she does for our cats and for us!
