“Sara is superb! She is so sweet, and professional. It is obvious she has a love for animals. This is my first time using Rover and I was looking for someone who has a lot positive reviews and Sara was the first to appear and was highly recommended. Sara cared for my cats while I was away on vacation for the first time in many years. She was prompt. She followed the feeding schedule and made time to play with my cats and send me videos and pictures of them and everything she did while visiting. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. I would absolutely recommend Rover and Sara to pet sit or a house sit in the future. She is excellent.”
“Sandra was simply amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well cared for while we were away. Not only was our kitty fed on time, but Sandra also made sure she got plenty of playtime and attention, keeping her routine just as if we were home. We felt completely at ease knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. We’ll definitely book Sandra again for our next trip!”
About: I grew up with a loved dog and spent countless joyful hours caring for, playing with and training her. In addition to growing up with a dog, I had the pleasure of intermittently watching my neighbors’ dogs for the past four years and each experience has deepened my love for our furry friends. You can trust that your pets will receive abundant love and attention while you’re away. Having navigated my own dog’s seizures, I’m well-equipped to handle any situation and comfortable administering medication if needed. I can clean up after animals in any regard and am comfortable bathing them if necessary. Your pets will be in compassionate and capable hands. Pet care is something I look forward too every day. Each day, I will dedicate specific times for walks, play and feeding, ensuring that your pets’ needs are fully met. While I work a full-time job, I am ready to accommodate my schedule during the week. I’m available for dog walking or dog sitting or cat sitting after 5 PM on Mondays Wednesdays and Fridays. On the weekends, I have even more flexibility, allowing for extended playtime and quality moments with your pets. I have no pets at home, creating a calm and comfortable environment for your pets. If it helps them feel more at ease, I can easily section off a room just for your dog or cat. I also have a long leash available, allowing for plenty of fun and exploration in a safe space. My goal is to provide a stress-free atmosphere for your pets. I’m more than happy to come to your home as well, ensuring they remain in a familiar setting that minimizes anxiety.
“Jennifer was great with Tucker! She is a compassionate and enthusiastic sitter! She will be taking care of Tucker for a week and I am totally confident Tucker will fall in love with her! I will be able to enjoy myself knowing Tucker is in great hands!”
About: I had a cat for 15 years and I have had 5 dogs. I now have 2 dogs who I got as puppies TOGETHER ! Raising two puppies at once was hard but it was so worth it. I am good at handling anything that comes my way and I love animals very much. I currently have a full time job but I am available weekends, before 7:30, after 5 pm and on holidays. I care about my pets seeing people and being brought on walks when I am gone, this is what I’m here for! I have two friendly dogs (one miniature bernedoodle and one standard bernedoodle). I have a dog park in my back yard for the pups to run around in and I have plenty of comfy couches and beds if that is what you allow!
“Deniz did an amazing job taking care of my dog (in his home) and my cats (in my house) and my plants. He’s lovely and I’d happily recommend him. He’s also: Reliable, detail oriented, takes initiative, follows instructions, communicative, respectful, responsible. I was able to relax knowing everything was taken care of while I was away for almost a month.”

“Jessica is a very fun, responsible, pet loving person, especially dogs. She truly loves to play with them and cuddle with them and pet them. She can get their energies out for you also. I have first hand experience knowing that you can safely trust your cherished pet in her caring hands. She recently pet sat for a neighbor and curled up on the floor with the dog and watched a movie so the dog would feel comfortable and not be lonely. She takes the time to get to know the pets and even will send daily updates and adorable photos while you are away. Her attention to detail is impressive; she follows care instructions perfectly and ensures they feel loved and comfortable.
