“Tala did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats over the weekend! She was reliable, communicative, and made sure our cats were happy and well cared for. We came home to clean litter boxes, full water bowls, and two very content kitties. It was clear she gave our pets plenty of love and attention. Highly recommend Tala!”
“Carrisa is amazing! She was very communicative and I was really happy with the service she provided which helped me have peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book her again in the future!”
“This was our first time using rover and Sarah went above and beyond. Her communication was excellent and our kitties felt so loved while we were gone. She sent lots of amazing photos while we were on our trip that made our day every time! Would recommend and will definitely be using her every time we travel! thank you so much!!”
“Andrea was amazing! She looked after our 3 cats while we were gone for 2 weeks. She consistently went above and beyond and is very professional and personable. From day 1 she paid attention to every detail and noted every specific requests we had. She sent a ton of pics and vids on each visit and consistently updated us. We would trust her again in a heart beat and highly recommend her to everyone else! Thank you Andrea!!!”
About: Hi!! I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages. I am new to rover but have been working with animals for several years- this includes walks, dog training and belly rubs! Giving medications, doing their physical therapy exercises for seniors I can help with it all. Scroll through my gallery to meet my references!! I work a flexible schedule (I’m a Medical Device Engineer), so just shoot me a message and we can work something out. I am super outdoorsy so I go on a lot of walks and hikes..I know all the local trails. I also have a bunch of fun puzzles and other brain games for puppies that can’t leave home. Shoot me a message we can work out the best care plan for your pets. I carry my treat pouch on all visit, will have treats and poop bags. I also rock climb so my upper body strength is right up there to keep your excited puppies safe and while letting them explore. I love sniffaris . I’m also an expert hiding medications just right to get your babies to take them willingly! I can read body language and will always maintain communication with you!
“Shihua exceeded all my expectations! She was very responsive from the very beginning. Her daily updates were incredibly thorough and she provided so many pictures every day. I’ll definitely book her again for any upcoming trips.”
About: I have lived with animals my whole life, I’ve got baby pictures to present time with my pets. I currently live with 2 dogs and 3 cats! It’s a farmhouse but we love it :) One of those dogs is my baby named Bella, she’s a super energetic and cuddly black Yorkie mix who’s 6 years old now. Growing up I’ve always wanted to be a veterinarian but didn’t realize how expensive it would be so I never fully went to be a doctor but I do still have experience working in animal hospitals. I know the basic wants and needs for your pets and will be more than happy to give them that🤗 I work 10-5 Monday through Friday, off on the weekends so if you ever need me in those gaps I have, give me a holler! I live in a very spacious home but unfortunately am not allowed to have any more pets than the ones we have now, but we do always have at least one person at home to watch the babies and always have our back door gates closed as well as our front door.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 12 years old. I have a great reputation and known for being very caring and friendly towards pets. I’m a dog and cat bather too so I can also bath your pet! I currently work part time so I have plenty of spare time to care for your pets. I work in the mornings so I have the afternoons free for your pets. I will make sure your pet is safe indoors or outdoors. I will cradle your pet if needed to keep them safe from any visitors you might be having in your home or the mailman.
“Tessa is an amazing addition to our weekly routine. She is very communicative and reliable. My dog is very shy and slow to warm, but he has been easily won over by Tessa’s care and consistency. I do not have to worry if my dog is safe or able to go outside, due to Tessa’s drop-in services.”
About: I have a childhood dog that lives with my parents and two young kitties that live with me. I have experience with both and know how different personalities can be! I work Monday through Friday in a hybrid position but make my own schedule therefore can work around your pets needs. I am an active person that enjoys walks and playing with cats and dogs. I have a gated driveway that is used occasionally but remains closed if no car is going in or out. It is big enough for your pet to play in and there is a backyard where they can go potty. I will always be with them when outside and they can be in their crate inside or I don't mind giving them extra cuddles on the couch.
“Patricia was great with our cat, and very responsive both in the coordination before/after sitting, as well as during the actual visits. We enjoy working with her and would absolutely recommend her to friends.”
“Aurora was fantastic! She was so loving and caring to our two cats while we were away. With every visit she provided great photos and updates, and I felt very at ease knowing our kitties were in good hands.”
“Yichen has been absolutely amazing throughout the whole process! She took care of my kitty, sent me detailed updates keeping me reassured while I was away. She is extremely thoughtful and kind, and very communicative!! Highly recommended and I will definitely being booking with her again! 😊”
“Alexsys did a fantastic job taking care of our pets! She gave them the perfect amount of attention, ensured they were well tended to and provided us with detailed updates throughout our time away, alleviating any anxiety we may have had about leaving our pets while on vacation.”
“Even though my cat is a bit of an introvert who prefers her own company than with a human, Joey still made sure all her needs are taken care of. Joey was also communicative when there are little changes to the visit arrangements.”
“I am SO grateful for Ashely. She is so warm and wonderful and an absolute cat whisperer 💕 My cats don’t come out for anyone else. I don’t think I could ever leave town without her.”
About: I have 4 dogs of my own, ages 10 to 3 months old. Know feeding, walking, and bathing for small and larger dogs. Previous experience helping at an animal shelter. Helped in giving medication, feeding, walking, as well cleaning procedures to ensure pet safety. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to watch over your furry friends! I am available for walks and drop in visits throughout the week, before 1pm. I have a fenced backyard that is connected to a car port that is also fenced. I have 4 friendly dogs who will be able to play and keep your pups company. I am capable to crate your pup or can bring them inside the house if necessary. I have 2 cameras, one in the backyard and one in front of my home that oversees the gate as an extra safety precaution.

Amelia was amazing with our kitten and very communicative. Loved that she actively played with our cat every visit, especially considering the little one is now a senior kitten. The pictures were adorable (greeting boop!) and provided fun updates on how active and/or sassy our cat was each visit. Very much appreciated her watching our small one. Would absolutely recommend her and book her again!
Yichen was the perfect sitter that we were so lucky to find! About two weeks before our international trip, our senior cat was diagnosed with CKD that required daily subcutaneous injections, along with few other medications with her diagnosis. I had booked Yichen prior to all of these needs and she was able to accommodate my new requests and additional visits without a problem. She even offered administer fluids during our “meet and greet” visit so I wild feel comfortable prior to leaving. The fact that she’s also a vet that is taking a break also gave me the extra peace of mind while we had to leave our sick girl behind. She was able to monitor the cat’s food and water intake and also gave her anti-nausea meds (prescribed by the vet) as needed too. Yichen was so gentle with my cat, with extra bonus for all the cute photos she took for the Rover reports. I would 100000% re-book with Yichen again in a heartbeat.
Alexsys did a fantastic job taking care of our pets! She gave them the perfect amount of attention, ensured they were well tended to and provided us with detailed updates throughout our time away, alleviating any anxiety we may have had about leaving our pets while on vacation.
Normally, when we don't have someone able to check in on Deejay when we're gone for longer periods of time, I notice he gets stressed and really lonely (crying and sometimes gets respiratory infections/sneezing). However, after Kristine spent extra time to keep him company while we were out of town, he was brighter and less sniffly when we came back! She was also extremely responsive with sending pictures and updates and extremely attentive with questions to go above and beyond our asks. I'll definitely need to book with Kristine every time now.
Joy was the ultimate professional, and went above and beyond to make my cat feel seen, and loved while I was out of town. I could never compliment her enough for the high quality work she did. If I was given the chance to hire her 100 more times, I would do do it every time. Thank you, Joy!
5 Stars – The Best Pet Sitter We’ve Had! We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Marisol was absolutely amazing with both our cat Gin and dog Makii during her house drop-in visits. From the moment she met them, it was clear she had a genuine love for animals, our usually shy cat even came right up to her, which never happens! She was super attentive, gave both pets plenty of love and playtime, and kept everything incredibly clean and tidy. We came home to happy pets and a spotless home, which made the whole experience completely stress-free. If you’re looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and truly great with animals, Marisol is the one. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
