“Claudia was wonderful! From our first meet, she connected instantly with my cat Ava, which gave me complete confidence in her care. While I was away, she communicated consistently, sent great photos, and kept Ava’s litter clean. It’s clear she genuinely cares and takes the time to make pets feel comfortable. I came home to a happy cat. Highly recommend!”

“Christal does drop in visits at my house midday while I’m at work 2-3 times a week. She takes my husky mix out to play and go potty. My dog adores her and has had no issues with going to the bathroom which I was worried about. He feels safe and loved by her. Christal responds to messages almost instantly and takes lots of photos. I would highly recommend letting her watch your fur babies!”

“Alan did a great job with my indoor calico Sparkle and my outdoor cats. Sparkle was not very friendly but she got to know Alan and came out to see him more than I thought she would. He was good at getting her medicines to her and sending upates and photos. We look forward to having him help us again soon!”
About: Hi there! My name is Loriann, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Growing up, I cared for my own dogs and cats, as well as a ferret, and later helped my partner care for his senior dog until he passed. I’ve also housed and cared for strays whenever I could, giving them a safe place and a better life. While most of my experience comes from caring for my own pets, I understand the responsibility, patience, and love it takes to keep animals safe and happy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cozy snuggles, I’m here to make sure your furry family member feels loved while you’re away. I am open for booking when my calendar shows available. I'm keeping up with it constantly! I've also got time on my hands to help pet sit/walk your furries whenever you need me. I work part-time right now in the evenings but fear not as my fiance will be home as well to help keep your fur baby company and to make sure they stay safe! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep my home clean, open, and free of hazards, with a blocked-off patio for fresh air and a dog park just outside for safe exercise. Inside, pets have plenty of supervised space to play and relax. I understand that every pet has their own needs, so I make sure to follow your instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or special routines. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Trust is important to me. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect, and I’ll care for your pets as if they were part of my own family.
“Veronika was quick to respond to my initial request. This was for a short, but important trip. Veronika reassured me that my baby, Stache was in good hands, & I got the Rover cards with each visit. If she is available, I will definitely request Veronika again!”

“Lilly took fantastic care of our cat Waffles. She was very communicative and kept us updated the whole time we were away, and we could tell Waffles was in great hands. Waffles can be shy and Lilly was wonderful at knowing when she wanted attention and when she needed space. She also went above and beyond by starting four days early on very short notice when we had a family emergency. Highly recommend!”

“Nicole and Michael were great with my pups! They sent daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was on vacation. It was such a relief knowing my dogs were in good hands. I’d happily trust them to watch my dogs again!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover working from home full-time, I provide constant supervision, 'office mate' snuggles, and frequent potty breaks in a stress-free environment. Your pet will receive my undivided attention in a true home-away-from-home setting, including a large fenced yard for secure play and daily long walks! I am also experienced in senior care and dedicated to keeping your fur baby safe, active, and loved all day long. I work from home full time with a very flexible schedule. I am available for walks throughout the day and potty breaks as needed. I will provide daily updates with photos and videos to make you feel comfortable! I have a single story home with a fenced in backyard. We have a large crate if needed, but we had a velcro dog and know how important it is for animals to feel safe and secure, so they are more than welcome to spend as much time near me as they want!
About: Hi! I’m Patience ! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets—ranging from energetic puppies to senior cats—I treat every pet like part of my family. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets need tailored care to feel comfortable while you're away. A typical day in my care includes a morning walk, plenty of play sessions with chew toys, and quiet cuddles in the evening. For seniors, I focus on gentle, short walks and ensuring they have soft bedding and a calm environment. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have company throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing for frequent potty breaks every 2–3 hours and mid-day play sessions. I usually take a longer walk in the late afternoon to help them burn off energy before dinner. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I require a meet-and-greet to ensure we are a perfect match. I only communicate through Rover for your security and mine. I am highly observant of behavior, ensuring pets are never put in stressful situations and that their environment is secure.
“By far the best sitter we have ever had the pleasure to work with. Not only was she confident with our anxious kitten, she has the experience and care that fur parents can appreciate. Our cat has gone from being anxious to allowing Alyssa to feed her treats right out of her hand, just after two times working together! Super cool!! 10/10”

About: I worked for a board and training facility lots hands of experience from training and playtimes to day to day care understanding dog behavior and emotion and grooming as needed. I work full time but I am wanting something on the side still dealing with animals on my off days which are Thursday and Friday I provide a positive only environment through scripted/unscripted instructions using knowledge of reading body language and animal behavior creating a stress free care environment and assuring quality time with your furry children and being proactive throughout overnight stays and being alert and attentive during or exercise/walk time I have work with and handled dogs who have had trust and aggression issues towards men and made it a quick turnaround with proper patience and training.
“Trevor is incredible, trustworthy and so loving. He really went above and beyond to take care of my pups, especially when my sweet girl was under the weather. He gave her some extra love and cleaned up when she was sick.”


“Adrienne was amazing and made leaving my fur baby that much easier. She made sure he was comfortable and got the enrichment he needed. Will definitely be looking to reach and book again in the future.”

“Estefany did a fantastic job watching my two cats for an extended time. I made the request very last second and she didnt hesitate to accommodate my situation with great communication. She was very intuitive with my shy gals. Highly recommend!!”

About: I work Monday through Friday so I am currently available for dog walks after 5pm on these days. I’m nothing spectacular that would set me apart from other sitters, but I love dogs and have a lot of experience with a wide variety It isn’t hard for me since I am single and don’t have any kids, when I’m pet sitting I never stick to the minimum requirements, I always take them on walks, throw the ball for them if they like that, since they’re a bunch of fun and I do it for the joy of the job, their enrichment is the point but it always feels secondary. I work at an engineering firm with flexible hours so it’s great not to be bound by my occupation. I don’t just take care of dogs by feeding them and letting them out to go to the bathroom, I love to take them running if they’re capable and also throw a tennis ball for them. My evenings are best spent with them playing fetch or jogging outside all over town Pet care fits into my weekly routine real easily since I currently am single and without a family to occupy my time, so I very much love having it occupied by caring for another’s animals I care for them by making sure they’re fed as well as properly exercised and have had some form of daily enrichment if they’re a breed that is playful
“Jovita was so awesome! So so good w/ both my dogs, one with past trauma leading to aggression at times. She gave him the space he needed all while filling his needs (potty breaks and food). She kept me updated, sent pics, and was great communicating. I will request her again any day to take care of my pups. Highly recommend!”

“I’m extremely grateful for aleksandras help! she sent lots of photos and videos which I really enjoyed. she went out of her way to make my extremely shy cat feel very comfortable and safe! I will definitely be a repeat client! 10/10 would recommend :)”

Shalimar pet parents share their Rover experiences
Veronika was a great sport about a somewhat irregular cat sitting gig of looking after a semi-stray cat I have been feeding for several months. She sounded honestly happy and pleased the one time she saw the cat in the yard. Very reliable and easy to work with.

So lucky to have found Amanda last minute. My cat is absolutely in love with Amanda and I rebooked with her before her first job was even up. I am so glad to have found her and definitely plan on booking with her in the future. Great communication and lots of pictures! Everything I could have asked for!

This was our second time booking with Lillian, and she was great as always! She sends detailed updates and lots of photos, which really gives us peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear she genuinely cares about Lumi and takes the time to play with him and make sure he’s doing well. We’re so thankful for her help and would definitely book with her again!

Jai jumped in to care for our kitties while we were on an international trip, and our other sitter had a last-minute schedule change, which we greatly appreciated! She's a very quick communicator and has a positive, calm demeanor that put our cats at ease immediately. Highly recommend Jai and will be requesting her help again when we need a sitter in the future!

This was my second time having Alyssa do drop ins for my cat and once again, she did such a great job!! I feel like Willow my cat is in such good hands while I’m gonna and always appreciate the updates and photos Alyssa sends. Will absolutely be booking with her again in the future and will highly recommend to anyone and everyone!

June did absolutely amazing caring for my little one. Athena was super comfortable with her and was all over her. She consistently cleaned her litter box and also swept/vacuumed around. Athena enjoyed her company and I had a piece of mind as I was traveling!

Estefany is amazing! She accepted my request very last minute. She followed my care instructions and sent me an in-depth update on how my little creatures were doing. She’s communicative and very friendly! This was my first time using her and I’ll definitely be rebooking. Thank you Estefany!

2nd time booking with Aleksandra and she was great again! She took wonderful care of my cat and I really appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent during each visit. It gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely book with her again!

Alma was ahmazing! Im soo glad we found her. My 18yr old furry gentleman has a bit of a routine these days with oral supplements, walks, etc and leaving him with a new sitter for a week made me nervous. She was great with him, sent thoughtful and detailed reports, asked questions to make sure things were done correctly and took some super cute photos too! The house was tidy when we came home and she even took out the trash for us. The day of the wedding I didn’t even get a chance to check the reports and I was totally confident that Guapo was in good hands! Thank you Alma, for allowing this mamabear to relax and actually enjoy my time away! :)
