“Holly did a great job looking after my cat! She was communicative, thorough, and took wonderful pictures. He clearly enjoyed his time with her and warmed up very quickly! When I need a sitter in future she will be at the top of the list.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I have trained almost all my dogs since they were puppies. I have trained my own service dog. I have a passion for training dogs. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time to play with and train your pup. I can take them for daily walks around the park as well. I have a fenced yard and a nearby park to take your dog for a walk. I have my own friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a cat, but if your dog does not like cats, I can isolate may cat from your dog. My big dog seems to have a way of knowing how to make dogs feel comfortable in our home. He knows when to interact with them and when to just leave them alone. I am retired so I have lots of time to spend with your dog. I try to schedule my activities around when I have dogs, so I can devote all my time to caring for the dogs. I have a fenced in yard. I always supervise dogs when they are outside. I try to set up play dates with a neighbor who also works for Rover. My husband and family members are usually around to play with and take dogs on walks. I am currently transforming my services to focus more on training sessions in my client’s home. My main focus is working with young pups and to start training from day one, although I welcome the opportunity to train dogs of all ages. My goals are to offer support to dog owners on how to properly train desired behaviors in their dogs. I closely monitor all dogs, especially during play. I train the dogs how to play appropriately with each other. I will only crate dogs if it’s for their own safety. The only services I do in a client’s home are training sessions with the client present.
“Jenny is the best!!! Always had our cat looking forward to her visits and we enjoyed the pictures/comments. Gave us ease of mind while we were away and she also looked after our snake!! The updates provided let us know our cats mood and eating habits.”
“Patrick did a great job taking care of our dog and our cat for drop-in visits while we were away. He was kind and attentive. I would definitely use his services again and recommend him to others.”
About: Hi, my name is Mackenzie. Growing up, I was frequently around pets including caring for my own and helping my mom with pet sitting. If there was an animal at any event, you could almost guarantee that I was snuggled right up beside them. My love for animals has only grown as I have opened my heart and my home to these amazing creatures. Over the years I have cared for numerous animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, and lizards. I currently share my home with two adorable bunnies. Pets require a lot of hard-work and dedication, but the reward of a happy pet is worth every amount of effort. If needed, I am able to assist any animals with behavior issues or that require special care such as taking meds I currently work part time from 1pm to 6pm and have weekends free so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I am a very attentive pet sitter. If a pet is not already cuddled up next to me, I take regular breaks from whatever I am doing to check on them. Even if I bring my homework, I will make sure your pet is my number one priority and does not get into any trouble
About: I love taking care of puppies depending on their size abd behavior. I avoid aggressive dogs. I am very patient and very organized with my environment and take my work seriously. I work basically 3 days a week and during my days off, I spend it at home with my daughter and cats. I also have a special room where they can sleep and play safely. At home, I have a special room for my cats. It has everything they need. Food supplies, play trees, litter boxes, pet beds, etc. I even installed an air conditioner to make sure they’re getting the right temperature inside the room. I clean this room everyday after work.
About: I've been caring for my neighbor's dog for the past three years, and recently started caring for their second dog as well. I also enjoy dog walking, for myself and for the pups! I've learned to pay attention to how dogs are feeling with their body language, and I understand what it's like to care for a dog who might be a bit anxious. I'm excited to spend more time with dogs and provide them with a comfortable and enjoyable experience while they're in my care. I’m a college student with classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m free Monday and Wednesdays during the day, and Friday through Sunday. I’m excited to hang out with dogs! I can sit and cuddle with your pup, or play games including some enrichment activities to make your pup feel happy and content. I love to walk and would be happy to take your pup for a walk around the block!
“Edward was so easy and pleasant to work with. His daily feedback and communication really put my mind at ease with my sick cat. He gave all medications as directed , and worked together with my son as a team. Having an extra pair of hands to administer meds to our car made our trip worry-free. He also sent cute pics! Thank you so much Edward!”
“Amy was great! We felt so reassured that our kitty was getting the attention she needed while we were gone. I appreciated the daily photo updates and could tell she took great care of our girl.”
“We cannot say enough great things about Joesph! This was our first time using Rover, and we were understandably nervous about having someone we didn’t know entering our home and caring for our cat while we were away for Thanksgiving. From the first message, Joesph went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident in our decision. He was incredibly professional, kind, and attentive, ensuring we felt reassured every step of the way. He sent us adorable photos of our fur baby during his daily check-ins. The images captured our cat looking happy (in his way), which told us he was in great hands. He followed all of our care instructions perfectly, and his communication was excellent—we never had to wonder how things were going. It was clear he genuinely cared about making sure our cat was well taken care of, and his trustworthiness made it much easier for us to enjoy our holiday without worrying. If you’re looking for a dependable, caring sitter, we wholeheartedly recommend Joesph. We’ll be booking with him again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of family, friends', and neighbors' animals for 8 years now. I'm always the go-to person to call and genuinely enjoy helping with whatever is needed. I have experience with dogs (big or small), cats, and even reptiles. I've fostered kittens in the past (and even kept two), so I know how to handle younger animals. I've also cared for senior cats, so I'm ready to learn about any accommodations your pets may need. I am currently on summer break from College, so my schedule is very flexible. I don't have set free days, but I can work throughout the week and weekends. I treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I would my own. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions to the letter, and make sure your pets stick to their familiar routines to reduce stress.
About: I’ve taken care of my girlfriend’s family’s 2 rottweilers and 1 miniature schnauzer, as well as their 2 cats, for periods of time that stretch from 3 days to 1 week. I always pay attention to the owner’s instructions on what the pets need, how to keep them entertained and healthy, and at what times to do what things. I will always put your pets’ safety first and provide the best service I can offer. Not currently working part time so pet care will be much easier and more efficient for me. Weekends are a coin toss as I may be on call on those days. I am a fast learner, so I will ensure that all your pets will be safe and doing their normal behaviors throughout your house, I will make sure no animals can run out and I will treat your pets with the utmost care and respect.

“Kim is the absolutely best! This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous beforehand. However, after our initial messages, I immediately felt comfortable with Kim and knew that our cat was going to be well taken care of and loved while we were away. Before booking, we had the opportunity to meet in person and for our cat to meet her. It was evident that our cat felt comfortable and safe with her right away as well. Kim is an excellent communicator and would share pictures and videos of our cat, Hazel, each visit. She also went above and beyond, bringing in packages for us and even offered to water plants, etc. If you are looking forward to a reliable, kind person to take care of your pets while you’re away, Kim is your person! I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you again Kim ☺️”
About: Schnauzers to Shepherds, Bichons to Burmese, Malinois to Malamute, Rottweilers to Rabbits, Goats, Sheep, Chickens or even Horses. Growing up I spent my summers on a farm so am comfortable around all animals. I work from home, so have short notice flexible availability. Super clean and quiet, I pride myself on not leaving a “footprint” when I visit your home. Adaptable to your preferences for either high intensity workouts for your “runner” or slow lingering walks for our shy timid types. I pace myself to the personality of the animal yet enforce strict boundaries for both our safety. Using preventative measures combined with positive reinforcement, creates a safe, engaging environment for your fur baby.
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats. I've helped friends and family with house sitting on occasion. Last year, I assisted in care of 16 chickens and 2 turkeys; feeding, watering, cleaning the coop. I've spent the past 6+ years as a classroom teacher, where caring for those in need came naturally. As a pet sitter, I can dedicate my undivided attention to your fur baby. I believe communication is paramount; be specific with what you want and need, and I will act on it accordingly. Of course, dogs and kitties communicate too, and my compassionate and attentive ways will help keep your pet content! Generally, my availability is evenings and weekends. Sundays are only sometimes available. I'm a Substitute Teacher while determining if I wish to go back to the classroom full-time or not. During school holidays, (Thanksgiving break, etc.) I will be available each day. I choose the days I Substitute, so on a few special occasions MAY be able to work some daytime weekdays. Naturally, I'll provide the same consideration I'd expect from someone taking care of my home or cat. I'll be detail oriented, focused, careful and respectful. If you desire pet boarding, I suggest a meet and greet at my house first, as it is a tiny home. I have an enclosed yard and lots of acres to roam, but want to be sure it's a fit.

Mackenzie S.
“Mackenzie did an amazing job taking care of my dogs! She took them to the park everyday on top of taking them for daily walks. Mackenzie even took the time to groom them and spent time the majority of the day with them as I had previously stated that one of my fur babies has separation anxiety. I could tell how much she cared for them and when I came back home, I found my dogs snuggled up next to her on the couch. I will 100% book her again for any pet sitting needs.”

“I highly recommend Farrah, she helped me train my 2 year old Rottweiler with excitability and recovery from hip surgery for walks and and overall obedience. She has knowledge, patience and love for animals. She has worked with horses, dogs and owned cats along with other animals throughout our lives.
