“Olga was an excellent cat sitter (drop in). I received pictures of the cat and reports daily, I could tell my usually shy cat loved her. I felt very comfortable leaving her in charge; she was extremely reliable and competent.”

“Shelby was superb. She took care of everything we needed and was very responsive always. She sent us amazing pics of our Cat and videos of him being loved. Definitely recommending her. Thanks Shelby!!”

“Erica was so friendly and easy to work with. She helped me tailor the booking to our exact needs and helped make the process really east for me. My cat, Cricket, warmed up to her right away, and Erica made sure to get all the necessary information to take care of her while I was gone. My cat takes medicine and has a prescription diet and Erica made sure she got everything she needed, plus brushing and playtime. She even sent me regular updates with pictures. Having her watch my sweet senior kitty really set my mind at ease. Thank you Erica!”

“Alejandra was wonderful to my girls. This is the second time she was taken care of Ally and Lucy. She is dependable and loving to the girls. I couldn't ask for someone better to look after them while we were out of town. Pictures were great and she made it easy to go on vacation and not worry about our fur babies while enjoying time with my human children lol. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Victoria was awesome and an absolute life saver! She is communicative and took great care to make sure my dog was taken care of, I didn’t have to worry about a thing!”

“Sarah is great with my high energy dogs! It’s hard for me to find care for them because one of my dogs is scared of strangers, but Sarah made her feel comfortable and relaxed. Very thankful and looking forward to future appointments!”


About: I am an animal lover! Pets are family. I would love the opportunity to care for your beloved family member if given the chance. I can’t own pets anymore due to my kids allergies so when I learned about this opportunity it gave me hope again to get some cuddles and pets and walks in while also getting some animal time in since it’s so rare for me now. I am excited and looking forward to the opportunity to help you. I currently have a full time job and 4 kids that keep me busy. I am available on weekends and possibly evenings before summer kicks off. I am available and flexible to meet your needs in your home as my kids are allergic so I can’t bring them to mine. I am willing to help out where needed. Feeding, brushing, cleaning up, walking.
About: My name is Jacob and I have 15 years of experience caring for mine and my family's pets. I also have approximately 4 years of volunteer experience at shelters caring for cats and dogs. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds and energy levels. From tiny pups to large, strong dogs, I'm confident handling them safely and calmly. I've worked with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as leash reactivity, anxiety, fearfulness and high energy. I'm patient, attentive, and always focused on understanding each dog's unique needs. I'm autistic, and I've found that this often allows me to connect especially well with animals. I'm very attentive to body language, routines, and subtle behavior changes, which helps me respond calmly and consistently- particularly with dogs who need a little extra understanding. My goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience. My schedule is pretty flexible to do drop-in care for your pets or walks as needed. I am willing to work with clients so they can get the care they need for their pets. I am willing to do drop-in care at client's homes as needed. I can also take dogs for walks from client's homes as requested by client.
“Carressa was so caring with our kitties. CallieMae has separation anxiety and I’m always nervous to go on vacation but carressa put my mind at ease and made sure that CallieMae was still very loved. She handled my loving boy Parker with all the scratches he could ever ask for. And handled my rambunctious Maine coon kitten with ease. All around very very impressed and grateful.”

“Amanda has watched my cat on two separate occasions now. She’s a great sitter who obviously cares a lot and has a lot of experience with animals. My kitty always seems happy and well taken care of. She’s quickly becoming my go to sitter!”

“Rachel was amazing and professional and I felt totally comfortable leaving my pet in her hands! Would definitely recommend and plan to rebook! Loved all the pics and updates I got and it helped me relax knowing she was taking care of him”

About: I've been taking care of family dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have also always had a deep love for dogs specifically. I formerly helped handle dogs for a musher for 3 years and partook in part time sprint mushing as well. I know basic first aid for animals should it ever be needed. I'm looking for extra work to help pay bills as my youngest son races sled dogs. I currently am in school, I do part time on call work that involves travel from time to time, but if I have something set up with Rover I can decline. I currently do not offer in home care as I rent with 3 inside dogs. One of them is my Chewie. He will not need to come to your house unless you are comfortable with it and ok with having a playdate. Otherwise he will stay at home and hang out with the family while I am off working. I am dependable, love animals, and love being active.
“Brianne is amazing! She has been so such a great help with my little guy. Always on time and great at communicating. I love getting daily pupdates after her visit.”


“Alexandra was great - she was communicative, good with my pets and, most importantly, able to appropriately interact with my person-reactive dog. Within a few days, he warmed right up to her!”

“Brandon is quite literally a lifesaver! We needed a last minute drop-in visit after our sitter couldn’t make it and he responded quickly and was more than accommodating! My anxiety was through the roof worrying about my pups and he came through for us. We are very grateful for Brandon!”

“Shelley helped us out when I was in a pinch for a drop in on our poor pup who was in a cone after an injury! Shelley was great and took amazing care of Dash with his extra needs and kept me updated with pictures and updates”


“Both are very friendly and professional. They have have demonstrated their love of animals in the way they handle and respond to Bear Cat. I am very impressed with their dedication to animals.”

Scenic Foothills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brianne was consistently a few minutes early for all appointments. She is a very calm presence and my two little dogs reacted accordingly to her energy. I appreciate getting pictures everyday. I'm definitely going work with her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Sharon and co. did a wonderful job with my boys, catsitting for three weeks. I worry of course but she sent pictures and made sure they were ok everyday. I was very happy that my more timid boy was comfortable with the new visitors right from the get go. They also cleared my driveway of snow after we got a ton RIGHT before we got home! So very sweet of them to do! I highly recommend:)
