Sarah watched our 3 cats for a long weekend and was great! She was very communicative, sent plenty of photos, and our cats were happy campers when we came home. :)

Deena did a great job taking care of my cat and I felt comfortable knowing someone was checking on him every day and giving him attention while I’m not there to do so. She also sent lots of cute photos so I could tell he was having a good time.

Shelby continues to be the most incredible sitter for our two high energy boys! Every time she stops by I know they’re in great hands. One of our pups currently has a paw injury and Shelby has taken such great care of him during her drop ins, even helping us with ideas on how to waterproof his bandage to keep it dry in the snow! She has fantastic communication and is always so flexible - if you want an amazing dog sitter she’s the one to book!

This was my first experience with a Rover pet sitter. Angela impressed me immediately during our meet and greet when all 3 of my cats allowed her to pet and interact with them. She was so good with them, asked questions, followed my care directions perfectly. I received pictures every day. Angela clearly love animals! I highly recommend her and will absolutely use her again.

Jo is incredible, and I feel so lucky to have found her. She takes such thoughtful, loving care of Jake every single visit. She plays with him, gives him tons of affection, and always makes sure he gets outside time to explore. I love that she even updates me on the things he forages in the backyard — it shows how closely she pays attention to him. She keeps his water fresh, gives him his ice‑cube snacks, and sends the cutest photo updates. I feel at ease knowing he’s with her. Thank you, Jo!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have four cats, two dogs, and two rabbits, so I’m used to taking care of multiple pets with different needs and personalities. One of my dogs is very old and has become blind and deaf, which has taught me a lot about patience, paying attention to details, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Caring for him has given me experience working with animals that need a little extra support and attention. I also volunteered at a horse rescue and rehabilitation facility for a year, where I helped with feeding, grooming, cleaning stalls, and caring for horses. Working with horses taught me how to safely handle large animals, stay calm under pressure, and understand animal behavior. It gave me a lot of confidence and responsibility that I still use when caring for pets today. Besides my own animals, I’ve helped care for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, basic medications, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I’m a 19-year-old college student currently on summer break and working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets because I feel the same way about my own. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. ❤️ As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability outside of my part-time job. This allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet’s needs, whether that means drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent, quality care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, clean up after pets, ensure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and carefully follow any special instructions. I also treat each home with respect and keep pet owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

As always, Cheryl did an amazing job on visits with our kitties. She always goes the extra mile and when our girl could not be seen for 24 hours (but she was eating her treats and food) Cheryl asked for permission to go through our house to locate her, which she did! We trust Cheryll 100% with our kitties and our home. Will continue to rebook with Cheryl when assistance is needed. We love her!!

We are overjoyed with our choice to go with Samantha to care for our pups as we went out of town. She was kind, professional, and made me feel at ease leaving them with someone else to care for them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely be calling her up the next time we are in need! 11 out of 10.

Adina is super kind, dependable and attentive. A perfect match for our cat Lupe! Luckily she was available to book several drop-in visits with him. Thanks to her we were not concerned at all about the well being of Lupe while we were away, because she never left us hanging! We came home to a happy, loving kitty. Adina will definitely be on the top of our list whenever we might need someone to take care of Lupe in the future!

About: I’ve grown up with and spent many years living with pets of all kinds! I love animals and have done many overnight sits, walks and feedings for the pets of friends and family. I work part time and have an extremely flexible schedule. I do not have any children and I do have my own vehicle so it’s easy for me to schedule pet care on almost any day. I can feed, water, walk, crate and care for your animals based around whatever your normal day-to-day care system would be. I’m very adaptable and believe in keeping your pet’s normal schedule as much as possible.

Sarah is new to our dog, Bailey, today. Having only first met Sarah, we are impressed. She asked questions demonstrating experience with caring for animals and particularly job. We are comfortable after meeting with a Drop-In visit, that we can rely on Sarah for her soon visit for the next appointment.
