“Natalie was amazing! I felt so safe leaving my two kitties in her hands. She gave me through updates and pictures every day, including how they were eating and general activity levels. I could tell my cats really enjoyed having her there. She also went above and beyond cleaning my place before she left! Safe to say I’ll be booking with Natalie again ☺️”
“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”
“Another great drop in visit by Michelle! They were patient with my little shy guy, and worked to make him comfortable so he could get some kitty play time In!”
“We’re so grateful to Kelcya “Kacey” & Elizabeth B.! They took such sweet care of our kitten while we were away—making sure his food and water bowls were full, his litter box was clean, and most importantly, giving him plenty of love and playtime. He was clearly well cared for! Thank you both so much! 💛🐾”
“Shera was lovely! The meet and greet was super smooth, where we went over giving my cat her medication. Shera was punctual for all her visits, and gave really great notes. My cat can be a bit prickly sometimes, but it seemed like she got comfortable after the first drop-in. Would definitely recommend, and I'm keeping her on my list of go-to sitters.”
“Cannot recommend Holly enough! She watched my 2 cats for 6 days when the house we usually take our cats to when we travel had a last minute change of plans. Needless to say I was pretty worried But Holly made the situation so much better. She was very responsive, gave my cats cuddles and love (in addition to doing all the feeding / litter chores as requested) and gave me the perfect amount of updates and pictures!”
“Liz took great care of our two cat boys over a weekend and was really good with sending regular updates and pictures. She is a true cat lover! Would recommend and will probably try to hire again in the future”
“Libbey took great care of my kitty, and was very patient with a grumpy cat! She was prompt, thorough, and informative in her updates, and it helped me relax and enjoy my trip, knowing my girl was in good hands!”
About: I’m new to Rover, but I grew up with a family dog and chickens and I’ve always loved animals. I can’t wait to get my own pets one day, but for now I love spending time with my friends’ pets and would love to walk, play with, or watch yours! I work from home several days a week, so I am able to walk or check in on dogs during the morning, afternoon, or evening those days and on weekend. I have experience with dogs of all ages (from energetic puppies up to distinguished elderly dogs) and provide a calm presence at all times. I look forward to caring for your pets in their own home, at my house, or out on walks.
About: I love cats. I don’t think there is much that sets me apart, but I care deeply for animals and only want the best for them. I strive to provide comfort, love and care. I work full time, but am looking for a fun way to earn money doing something I’m passionate about. I love cats and feel everyone deserves to have their fur babies cared for with love and comfort. Available evenings and weekends. I am very responsible. I care for pets by staying alert. Closing doors behind me, petting and playing with a cat, staying in tune with a cat’s needs.
“Karli was amazing! It was my first night away from my boy Bob and I wasn’t sure how he would feel about it, but Karli visited him multiple times, sent pics and videos, and made me feel so much better about being away. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Jandy came over for a meet-n-greet with me and my three special needs cat sons. It was amazing to watch them bond instantly with her and she was even able to give Sebastian his insulin injection on her first visit. We look forward to working you, Jandy! 🐾🐾🐾”
About: My family has owned 5 dogs in the past; 2 Rottweilers and 3 Pitbulls. From that experience, I am able to feed, walk, crate, and do potty time. Also, I have previously taken care of friend’s dogs, and am continuously learning about them in my own free time. I also have experience taking care of cats and have sat for my friend's and neighbor's cat occasionally. I am able to feed, play, and clean out their litter box. I am college student part time, but my courses are offered through distance learning, so my schedule is flexible! I would just like a one day notice before booking. I am willing to follow any instructions on how you would like your dog to be cared for in your home. Additionally, I will make sure the dogs get adequate play time, potty time, and cleaning and grooming if needed.
“Sarah is wonderful! I have two cuddly, social cats who enjoy human interaction while I’m gone. Sarah is a great communicator, shared plenty of pictures and updates, and my girls loved her. It was so nice to know my cats were in great hands.”
“Tiffany was great and reliable the whole time she watched my kitties. She communicated, showed up when she said she would and send cute pictures and reviews of her time with them. The cats seemed in good spirits when I returned! Thank you!!”
About: I've got experience with mainly cats and dogs. I've worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years in my past. I've also pet sat for friends when I was younger. I'm a full time student. I have my own car. I have a good amount of free time and can come to you. My summers are more open and flexible but during school,my schedules will change on availability. I let them come to me. I've loved animals since I was a kid but every animal is different. I'm patient and understanding. I'm very approachable and friendly. My goal is to make sure your fur babies feel safe with me and that doesn't always happen in one visit. I'll be doing my best at making sure your animals get plenty of cuddles and playtime as well as being fed properly and loved on well.
