“Clarissa did such a great job taking care of not only my two cats but my aquatic turtle. Having never used something like Rover, after meeting Clarissa it was such a relief knowing my babies and my home were in such safe hands! Thank you!”
“Macie was amazing, so thankful for her and her family to board our cat while we stayed at the beach. She was caring and communicated with us every step of the way. I felt comfortable and was able to enjoy my trip with my family knowing our fur baby was in good hands. Thank you Marcie and family!”
“Rebecca took great care of my cat, Blu, while I was away and she sent me updates everyday. She was very responsive to my messages and was so flexible when it came to exchanging the keys. Rebecca even stopped by before the vists to meet Blu for the first time. Being an obsessive cat mom, I felt that Blu was in great hands with Rebecca and I will definitely be using her again.”
“I cannot recommend Kayle enough!! The peace of mind she gave me while I was out of town is priceless. She went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my cats and I were relaxed and comfortable while I was away. My cats were well cared for and they LOVE her!!! She even prepared the house for a dangerous storm that blew through while I was away. 100/10 book Kayle for your next vacation for all your pet sitting needs. I know I am!!”
“Alexis was very flexible and kept us up to date. We had to make last minute changes to our travel plans and she worked with us very well. She took very good care of our little pup :) Thank you Alexis!”
“We had an exceptional experience with Holly as our caregiver through Rover. From the outset, Holly was excellent in her communication, keeping us updated and sending us delightful pictures of our pups throughout her time with them. It was evident from the joyful expressions of our dogs that they were very happy and well cared for. Holly's attentiveness and professionalism gave us tremendous peace of mind, knowing that our fur babies were in good hands while we were away. We are definitely planning to hire her again and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Holly, for your wonderful service!”
“Tiffany was great! She was available for a last minute trip and was able to easily adjust the days to match our plans. She also brought in an unexpected package that was delivered while we were away.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life and currently have one dog, three cats (one senior with chronic illnesses/daily meds), four hermit crabs, one ball python, and 10 quail. In the past, I have cared for fish, snails, horses, rabbits, ferrets, a tarantula, and a variety of birds. I am open to watching animals of all kinds! I am able to provide drop in care any time on the weekends and morning/lunchtime/evening during the work week. I am also able to provide dog boarding in my home. I work Monday-Friday but my office is in the same neighborhood as my house - and is pet friendly! For drop in care, my goal is to provide care that keeps to the pets' regular schedule as much as possible in order to ensure they feel safe and cared for. I am able to medicate cats and dogs. For in home care, I am able to accommodate up to 2 dogs from the same household. I have a large, pet friendly house and fenced back yard.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a little kid, having dogs around me my whole life. I've helped train the family dogs, and earned the trust of even stubborn puppers everywhere I go. I'm able to pet-sit and walk around a part time schedule. I am free most other time and will take wonderful care of your pets. I will keep open communication with owners as to their pet's needs. I can care for sick or elderly dogs, help train puppies (not certified), and keep pets entertained.
About: I’ve loved pets for as long as I remember. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was four, ranging from small chihuahuas to large Saint Bernards. I’m currently taking care of two younger dogs and one senior dog. I’m a recent high school graduate with a flexible schedule available both weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate morning, lunch, and dinner needs for your pet. I have experience with watching several pets from puppies to pets who have special needs at my own home. Daily pet care for me includes feeding, walking, grooming, and playtime.
