“Paulina is a great cat sitter! She was easy to communicate with and was happy to meet us and our cat before we hired her. She is reliable and gave our cat plenty of attention while we were away. Would absolutely hire her again. Thank you, Paulina!”
“Kim did an excellent job watching creme. She also brought in packages and helped water the garden. Really appreciate that you go above and beyond! Awesome work!”
“Holly was great at watching over our two cats, we recently adopted a kitten who is shy but opened up to Holly so well! She was responsive, nice, and kept our kitties company while we were away!”
“Kelly was great for drop in visits on our weekend away! She communicated well and sent great updates on our kitties and lizard. Would definitely book again and recommend to anyone in the area!”
“Jen was a punctual, knowledgeable, and reliable cat sitter from our first visit to the last check in. Her reports show her pertinent observations on changes in the cat’s play and feeding behavior with good solutions to these behaviors. She was also willing to bring in the mail and take out the trash while we were away. The cats were playful and engaged in the videos she posted. We recommend Jen as a pet sitter and will use her services in the future.”
About: I've absolutely adored animals of all kinds since I was a little kid. As an adult, I've worked in shelters, kennels, and in client's homes. I am also currently a certified professional dog trainer. Depending on the days, I may have to make short trips away to train my client dogs. I will gladly spend the entirety of the rest of my time with your pets, including overnights! I am happy to follow a schedule if one is provided. I will also provide video or picture updates as frequently as requested. I will also be happy to check the house the pet is staying in to make sure it's safe for the pet. Any messes or accident's are no problem for me to clean up and I will inform the owner about them.
“Ashley was great with taking care of my dog while I was gone. My dog was just getting over being sick, so she needed a little more TLC, and Ashley kindly delivered. I am so grateful for her.”
“I recently had the pleasure of meeting Maya for a meet-and-greet, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! She is incredibly friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about dogs. My dog took to them right away (and she’s a very anxious goldendoodle), which speaks volumes about their approach and care. I’m confident that my pup will be in great hands during their walks. She even sent me pictures & updated me on her walk. Highly recommend Maya!!!!!!!”
“Briana was awesome! Luna is a nervous girl, and can sometimes take time to warm up to new people, but she took very little time to warm up to Briana! It was clear right away that Briana is a "dog person" - and Luna could tell too. And Luna, who is often a super picky eater even with us, ate her whole dinner for Briana with no troubles, which is testimony beyond any 5 star rating! We wouldn't hesitate to use Briana again or recommend her - if Luna is relaxed enough to eat dinner, she clearly trusts her and is happy, so that's what counts! She was friendly and super helpful so we couldn't be more pleased.”
“Eko and Sarah were SO nice with Cleo and really took their time to play with her and keeping her company☺️ truly happy to have found them after our previous Rover moved!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. Now I have 2 cats of my own which I adore. I love getting outside for walks any time of day and can do as long as your dog wants to! We just moved and I will not be working until a spot in daycare opens for my son. I can do daily drop-in’s and walks any day of the week. I will treat your home the way I would want a guest to treat mine and I will care for your pet like they are my own!
“Julia took great care of our dogs! We have an older Jack Russell and a younger deaf & anxious Jack. They are wonderful dogs but require a little more work. Julia was wonderful with both. She sent updates and pictures and we could tell the dogs were comfortable and at ease with her. Julia came over earlier for a meet and greet and was very friendly & kind. We highly recommend her!”
“Cassie has been such a wonderful caretaker for our cats. She spends quality time with the cats and ensures everything is clean and in order. Cassie goes above and beyond, was very flexible, and was such a big help. The cats absolutely adored her and seemed to really enjoy her company.”
“Virginia always provides the best care to our cats. She spends time with them making sure they get love, play time and attention. We could not recommend her enough!”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for pets every day. I help my mom care for our two dogs and also have three cats of my own, so I'm very familiar with the daily needs, routines, and personalities of both dogs and cats. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply giving them attention and affection, I treat every pet like they're part of the family. While I don't have professional training experience, I'm comfortable caring for pets of different ages and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and supervision, as well as senior pets who may require a gentler approach and more attentive care. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with dogs and cats. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already help care for my family's two dogs and three cats. I'm used to feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them attention, and making sure they're comfortable and happy throughout the day. Since I'm home for the summer, my schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I have plenty of availability throughout the week and can adjust my routine to meet the specific needs of each pet and their owner. My flexible schedule also means I can provide consistent care and give pets the attention they deserve. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I enjoy playing fetch, giving them lots of attention, and spending quality time snuggling and bonding with them. I often join my mom on long walks with our dogs, so I am comfortable exercising and caring for pets of different energy levels. I am responsible, patient, and knowledgeable about basic pet care, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, and following their daily routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make their well-being my top priority.
About: Growing up, my family had around 6 dogs that I learned to care for quickly. Outside of that, I’ve dog sat for neighbors and extended relatives frequently. I’m especially a pro with senior dogs who need a little extra help. The needs of your dog come before anything else. All the basics (food, water, potty, and play) are my priority, but I also highly value all the little things that make your dog special. It may be that they’re a big dog with a lot of energy who needs long walks and park play time; you may have a small dog who likes a short trot around the block and cuddles. I want to get you know your animals and care for them the best I can. As a part time worker and part time student, my hours vary, but there is always time for pups and kitties! I am available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in the evening and all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. In my experience with dogs, I’ve taken them on regular daily or every other day walks. Additionally, I have a fenced in yard they play in. With cats, I’ve always kept my indoors. As for both animals, I’m attentive with feeding, always making sure the animals are on a schedule that them.
About: I’ve fostered and owned cats and dogs since I was little. I worked at a dog daycare where I manage dogs from every size and breed! I’ve worked there for two years and have lots of experience! I work as a dog daycare attendant and a kennel technician there. I go to school at the University of Delaware and am home for the summer! I currently work a job of about 25 hours a week and sometimes will be shadowing veterinarians. My work schedule is not the same every week, but I can adjust as needed. I am trained from my job in animal handling and how to handle health challenges. I cannot do medicine unless it is already packaged in the food provided. I am a massive animal lover and am ready to give so much love & attention to the your pets!
“Tessa checked in on my 16-year-old kitties for a week. She is kind, responsive, flexible, and a true animal-lover. It was evident in all of the visit photos that the cats were being well-loved and having a great time playing and getting pats! Tessa even went above and beyond by leaving our home spotless after some kitty pukey incidents! Lol. We could not be more pleased with the care she provided!!”
“Alison was wonderful to work with. She was friendly and kind. She sent lots of pictures of our pets. We felt relieved knowing our pets were in such capable hands. Would definitely book with her again in the future!”

Shrewsbury cat parents share their Rover experiences
Nicole was great with my cat Hallie! Hallie is a very sweet and loving cat, but also very skittish around strangers. In a few short days, Nicole was able to gain her trust and Hallie would hang out with her. Nicole was very quick with responding to messages, particularly when I had questions or concerns, especially when Hallie was found to have some health issues less than a week before I was going out of town. Hallie seemed much happier and more energetic when I came back than when I left. I attribute that to Nicole taking such great care of her.
Tessa checked in on my 16-year-old kitties for a week. She is kind, responsive, flexible, and a true animal-lover. It was evident in all of the visit photos that the cats were being well-loved and having a great time playing and getting pats! Tessa even went above and beyond by leaving our home spotless after some kitty pukey incidents! Lol. We could not be more pleased with the care she provided!!
Jen is a responsible and responsive cat sitter. She takes good care of the cats and always makes time to play with them. She provides me with feedback about their eating and play behaviors, reassuring me that she took time to interact with them. The photos she sents show relaxed and interactive kitties. This is the second time we used her services and we have already booked her for a next time. We highly recommend Jen as a cat sitter.
Tara was amazing! She came to my home to care for my two cats while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She followed all of my instructions carefully and kept in touch with updates, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. When I got back, both cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I can tell they really liked her! I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again in the future.
