“We returned home to a very content cat after a week away. All her needs were met, and then some! Laura stayed longer than the allotted time frame. She’s incredibly generous not only with her time but also brought a brush and treats from home and gave them to me. My cat never liked to be brushed until now! She kept us updated with daily notes and pictures, which I caught up on upon our return. We’ll definitely use Laura again on our next adventure! Thank you so much!”


“This was our first experience using Rover. Thank you for making it so easy. Macy S was the best! She was so polite and conscientious. She sent the cutest pictures of our cats warming up to her and it made us feel relieved they were safe so we could enjoy our time away from them. Overall very positive experience. Would use Rover again.”


“Xinia is an excellent dog sitter! She meets my anxious dog at her level and goes above and beyond to ensure her comfort and trust. Xinia is very reliable and I just know my dog enjoys seeing her! I will definitely book her again 😊”



“Sarah was able to look in on my two cats on super short notice, giving them food and attention. One of them also needed medicine twice a day, which was no problem for her. She was a life saver!”


About: I have been part of a dog family since I was 9 years old. Several friends and neighbors have used me as a repeat sitter - I even took care of little doggies in diapers :) now I have several years of pet care experience through Rover. I also have my own dog, a teenage Aussie named Witten, who I’ve cared for the last couple years but who is currently being fostered with a friend who’s home is more suitable for him during my transition to the cities. When I care for your dog, I am communicative and will make sure you receive regular updates (unless you want me to leave you alone!) I’m not afraid to ask a question to make sure I’m always doing the best for your pet. I will go above and beyond, cleaning up trash, vomit, accidents, as needed. I want to work with you to give you the most peace of mind possible that your pet is in good hands. I’m recently moved to the cities and in the job search now, so I’ve got lots of flexibility to care for your pup on their schedule, and/or to stay with them for a meaningful amount of time during the day. My priority is making sure your pet remains feeling safe and cared for while you’re gone. I stay in tune with your dog’s needs so if they need to be calmed, or played with, or cuddled, I’m there for them. My approach is to help them feel loved while also making sure they know I am in charge so they can be safe with me.

“Elizabeth kept me up to date on my sweet fur babies, was on time and sent lots of photos. If there was concerns or needed any clarification on my requests she reached out with questions. Happy to have her to give care to my pets!”


About: My first German Shepard, Sheeba, trotted into my life when I was 4, and my intense, burning passion for dogs ignited. I’ve had them throughout my life and have yet to meet a dog I didn’t adore. Basically, I’m the guy at house parties in the office alone smooshing your pup’s face and giving them belly rubs. I’m comfortable with all sorts of breeds and temperaments. I work remote in a deadline based job that offers me some excellent flexibility. I’m able to be on site with your dog throughout the day, ensuring they get plenty of attention and outside time. When I’m caring for your dog, I’m caring for your family member. I know firsthand the amount of trust it takes to allow someone to be responsible for your loved one(s) and respect your property, and I don’t take that lightly.

“Angela was great! She is very experienced and very comfortable with any and all instructions I gave! She took great care of my cats, and I never worried about them while I was gone!”


“Katie was great with Georgie. She is a people-shy cat, and I was worried about her being alone for a few weeks. It took a little time, but Katie got her to come out for scratches and pets.”


“Ashley was great at communication, diligent about coming over to visit Angela, proactive about communicating any messes, and Angela had a great time with her!”


“Kayleah is great! She helped us out last minute and was so efficient with communication during our time away. Our cat is also very particular about strangers and she did a great job taking care of him. We will continue to book her if we ever need someone to take care of our little fur babies while we’re gone.”


“Penny has been great. Norbu seems to really like her, she was very punctual and appeared to enjoy what she is doing. I would definitely use Penny again.”


“Jill was absolutely wonderful with my cat while I was out of town. She took care of his medication & was so attentive during her visits. Franklin had a great time with Jill!”


“Kelsey did an amazing job!! Was very responsive to my little dudes’ needs and let me know if anything seemed off. Was also very responsive to communication and flexible with logistics around handing off house keys, etc. and is generally just really cool, nice and professional! Would highly recommend 🥳”


“Percy was our first Rover pet sitter. They were great. We had daily updates on our cats, with photos and our birdbaths and feeders were filled regularly. We felt completely at ease knowing that our cats were being well cared for while we were out of the country for 10 days. We can't recommend highly enough.”


“I booked Danielle for a daily check-in with my two cats while I was on a trip. She sent pics of them every day and obviously they love her very much! I would definitely rebook with Danielle in the future!”


About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats for the majority of my life. Growing up, I took care of the family dogs by walking them and brushing their teeth daily, brushing and bathing them often, playing with them, etc. I currently have a dog of my own that I care for and love deeply, and have had ferrets and cats before. So far, I have pet sat a cat on a couple different occasions. Last summer, I also pet sat a puppy for two months while the owners were busy moving. I have also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society. I work remote on Mondays and Fridays, but do work in office Tuesday thru Thursdays. So Friday through Mondays I have availability and Tuesday through Thursday I am more limited on what times I’m available. I’m committed to making sure your pets keep as much of their regular routine as possible while you’re away! I have my own routine for my dog at my apartment, but I am aware and understanding of the differences in routine animals may have.
