“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”

Rachel M.

“I’m grateful for Rachel and her quick response time and availability, especially around the holidays. Thank you for loving our critters while we were away!”

“Gabriella was fantastic. She was prompt with her updates and always updated me if life happened and she was going to be a bit late. It was so obvious that she genuinely care for my animals and enjoyed her time with them. I was hesitant to leave my kittens let alone have someone I don’t know check on them without me there but Gabriella quickly melted those worries. She was always quick to respond to me and I don’t plan to look for anyone else in the future. Highly recommend requesting Gabriella for any of your pet needs!”

About: Loving pet parent, foster pet mom, and experienced pet sitter. I have run my own drop-in pet care service for pets of film workers for a year and I'm absolutely THRILLED to branch out and offer my services to pets in my immediate area on Rover! Pets of film workers need a little extra TLC because their moms and dads work such long hours (10-14 hours a day on average!), so the majority of my time has been spent honing my enrichment skills! I take great care to provide the best walks, play sessions, cuddles, etc to help dogs and kitties feel fulfilled while mom or dad are at work. Dog or cat, young or old, I would LOVE to welcome your fur babies to my roster and pack our sessions with enrichment! :) As a loving pet mom of 5 including 3 rescue dogs and 2 rescue cats, I specialize in multipet households and know just how important it is to give each pet their own specific attention. No 2 dogs or 2 cats are the same, and I make sure to take time to listen intuitively to each dog and each cat to match my care routine to their needs as well as the needs you, their loving and amazing parents, specifically request for them! Need a rigorous walk for your high energy dog? I've got you! Need a quiet sitter to spend time with your kitty while they eat? I'm on it! No matter what your request - you can rest assured that I will bring endless understanding, love, cuddles, and TLC to the table to make sure your babies feel safe, secure, entertained, and loved in our time together. I will respect every detail and make sure to handle every single pet with care. Special Needs and Senior Experience: My oldest baby is a 17-year-old special needs senior kitty named Catun. She requires daily medicated eye drops, a special diet, and a whole lot of TLC during mealtime due to neurological damage. We've nursed her back to health through some dire times, and despite all odds, she is the happiest, healthiest, and most amazing kitty! I absolutely ADORE caring for her and welcome any of your complex senior or special needs pets as a result. I wouldn't change a single quirk about Catun - she is perfect and taking care of her is the joy of my life. If you have any special needs pets - particularly seniors with special needs, you can trust me with their care and I'm so happy to help! I will listen to them and to you, and love them like my own. Nothing gives me more fulfillment than caring for animals. I can't wait to care for your pets! I'm an entrepreneur and maker- jewelry making and pet care are my full-time job! I am flexible and available outside of the care and needs of my own pack. I often times won't be available for vacation stays due to my husband's film industry schedule, but never hesitate to reach out with last minute needs - if I have capacity, I'm happy to help! I am available for drop-in visits in your home and neighborhood! I offer on-leash walks when it isn't too hot for dog paws and yard plays in your fenced yards or in your home anytime. I do not offer pet sitting in my own home at this time. I can always come to you!

About: With 30+ years caring for my own pets and 15 years sitting for friends, I bring gentle, attentive care to cats and dogs alike. Belly rubs, cuddles, and kindness are always included. I prioritize comfort, routine, and emotional well-being—especially for shy, or sensitive pets. I’m currently in a relocation phase and not working full-time, so my schedule is wide open for pet care. I love spending time with animals—whether it’s drop-in cuddles, playtime, or checking in on their routines. I treat each visit like a little ritual of comfort and joy, tailored to their unique needs. I offer drop-in care only and do not host pets in my home. During visits, I create a calm, nurturing environment tailored to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. I focus on gentle engagement—playtime, cuddles, and reassurance—while also keeping an eye on food, water, litter, and any medications or requests. Each visit is customized with loving attention to detail.

“Erica was great caring for my cat. She was tentative to his well-being.”

About: I have had dogs for the last 10 years. Big and small I love to play and make sure all their needs are accommodated so they are happy tail waggers at the end of the day. I work full time however have plenty of time in the after noon to be able to care for your pets after 630pm. I also am free on Tuesdays and Sundays and Saturdays before 2 and after 630pm. I have a fenced yard giving your pet the room to run in and I can also easily crate your dog if needed. I do have a fur baby myself who loves to meet new friends so they can be buds.

“Our cat really seem to enjoy having someone stop in and visit with him while we were out of town with family. Julie was very respectful of our home, always made sure our house was locked/alarmed when she left after the visit and treated our fur baby really well. She's very nice, a good communicator and was accommodating, not that we asked for a lot. She also agreed to water my plants on one of the visits during the week that we were gone. We even got adorable pictures of our cat on our Rover cards during her visits. We had a really reassuring experience having her as our pet sitter. We highly recommend her and will absolutely be contacting her for our next trip out of town.”

“Vanessa visited with my girls while I was away, and took the best care of them. They were instantly comfortable with her and Vanessa took care in giving them the attention and play time they need before their dinner, keeping them happy during a lonely time :) thank you Vanessa!”

“Jolyne has been great! She is dependable, leaves funny pet commentary about her visits, and had no issue with a special needs pet. Would recommend!”

About: I love all animals! There aren’t any that I can think of that I wouldn’t care for in a home. I’ve been taking care of animals since a child and currently have 2 dogs and 2 ducks and a fish. I can also care for rodents and reptiles. I have open availability for all jobs. I prefer to either drop in and out or board them at my house as needed due to my own animals. At home, we have a large fenced yard and I walk our dogs daily. I feed according to your specifications and am flexible to your pets needs. At your place, I like to go over your pet's favorite things to do there and see where the toys are kept!

“Erin was so communicative, and clearly so full of love for critters! I would absolutely recommend her if you’re looking for confidence in knowing your furry loved ones will be cared for like they are her own.”

About: Hi! My name is Alyssa Rivera, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 4 years. From playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing a little extra TLC, I’ve had the joy of working with animals of all ages and personalities. I’ve provided daily walks, feeding, medication administration and plenty of playtime and cuddles. Whether it’s a weekend pet-sitting job or a regular walking schedule, I treat every pet as if they were my own—loving, patient, and always attentive to their unique needs. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind and make sure their furry companions are happy, healthy, and safe. I am currently a stay-at-home parent with a highly flexible schedule, and I have reliable childcare in place to ensure I can give my full attention to caring for your dog or cat. I maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding according to schedule, ensuring fresh water is always available, providing daily exercise or playtime, administering medication if needed, and keeping the pet’s environment clean (like litter boxes or bedding). I also offer companionship to help reduce stress while their owner is away and provide regular updates to keep owners reassured.

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 18, I care about your animals and I want everyone to feel comfortable. I'm very adaptable and want to make sure that your fur babies are on schedule when their mom or dad are out of town or at work. I love spending time with animals, and I appreciate developing new relationships! I'm currently working PRN so I have tons of time for you and your fur babies! I'm available all week from 7:00am-7:00pm, if my schedule changes I'll communicate my needs to match yours. When I'm staying as a guest in someone's home, your animal's safety is the most important. I try to make sure their environment isn't disturbed, and they stay as cozy as possible. I hang out with them majority of the day and probably leave them for 2 hours max during the day to go to the gym, or tend to my own animals. I'm flexible with what your expectations are for your own home and fur babies!

About: I've cared for pets since I was 8. Grew up with fish, cats, dogs, and some reptiles. I had a neighbor who had horses and a goose, and I'd help with them as well. I've cared for old and young animals, at the same time. I am not afraid of snakes or rats. I have a very limited sense of smell, so general animal odors aren't a problem for me. I work part time as of now, and have plenty of time to look after animals. My work shifts are on Wednesdays and Fridays and span from 8am-2pm, so I have plenty of availability. I will go to classes in the fall, and will update when I have that schedule. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs love. There is a small pond, local birds love to play in it. Sometimes our neighbor's cats come over and sunbathe in the soil. I have plenty of toys for the dogs, and am very affectionate with animals, but if an animal is nervous because I'm new to them, not to worry, I will give them space and time to adjust. Strangers are scary, and they have every right to be skeptical.

About: I have had dogs most of my life. Since I was 12 I have been bathing feeding walking eating walking and caring for dogs. 6 years ago I started reading and learning about cats after I found a kitten close to death. I now have rescued 5 cats and have fostered many others. We have just lost our 2 dogs, But I am great with dogs as well. I genuinely believe that all pets deserve the best care and a chance at living their best life.More than anything I appreciate owners that treat their pets like family 😁🐈🐕🥰 I'm available most days and my schedule is pretty open because I because I work part time And make my own schedule. I can be available in about 24 hours and I am willing to make time for any pets that need me. I have a small fenced yard, but my home is more cat friendly. I have several towers, automatic toys and lasers, wands, and scratchers for my cats. I think pets need stimulation and I think play time is pivotal to their happiness and bonding.

About: I've been a dog lover since I was 5! 🐶 From learning about different breeds to providing dog-sitting services, I've gained so much experience. My friends, coworkers, and my fiancé trust me with their furry friends. I have a special bond with active and big dogs, and I simply adore spending time with them. I'm currently working full time as an active duty military, very common working schedule 7-4pm and after work I have a lot of free time and also free on weekends. I have a big fenced and secured back yard. I own 2 big dogs and my fiancee owns 3 small dogs, they are very friendly but if needed I have a couple crates different sizes.
