“Morgan was great! This was my first time using Rover for my 2 girls and I am so pleased. I had such peace of mind knowing they were under Morgan's care. Her love for animals is evident from her bio and communication with me. She was thorough in her care and made sure she accommodated all of my girls' needs.”

About: I am just starting this journey as a dog walker, sitter. Now that I am a retired teacher I can give my time to helping care for other’s pets. I grew up with my one and only Keeshound Pepper. After she passed I never got another dog; however, I love my friend’s and family’s dogs. I also have a beautiful grand dog named Harper. When we had our kids we were never home because all three of them played several travel sports. I never thought it was fair to have a dog. Now that my kids are grown, I feel like I can enjoy helping take care of other people’s pets. Starting mid June I will be down the shore for most of the summer. I would be available most weekdays and some weekends. I also would like to do this to motivate me to get out and exercise more while enjoying time with your pets. I just retired from being a special education teacher after 28 years. I am a very responsible, trustworthy person and I would care for your pets like they are my own.
“First time Rover user and Tanya made the experience super memorable!!! She was very attentive, communicative, and loving towards my kitties! She provided a peace of mind that I needed while out of town!! ❤️”
“Joanna was a wonderful sitter and a warn person! We were very comfortable and at ease from the moment we met her. We rarely leave our dogs to anyone, even family, but we knew they were in good hands with Joanna. I’d highly recommend her, she is a mature, caring and responsible person. We were visiting from out of town, but would definitely use her again if the opportunity came about!”
“Diana was awesome. She got back with me initially within an hour. She took great care of my two cats and communicated with me each day including pictures of my kitties I definitely would hire her again”
About: Woof! Meow? Hello? Oh hi, now that I’ve got your attention! My name is Mae. I’ve taken care of animals when I was younger and in college. I stopped due to working a lot. However I have more time for your best friend(s)! I most cater to cats. However that doesn’t mean I haven’t taken care of dogs and one random fish. I know, why pick me? I love animals with everything and treat every animal as if they were my own. Cats care: I will/can spend a lotted amount of time. I will stay at the house for up to 1-2 hours depending on how many visits you want. Am and/or PM. They will get plenty of play time, or alone time depending on preference. Cat litter will be scooped 1-2 times a day (depending on you, amount of cats or if needs) Dogs care: Same as above minus the litter. However they will get the lotted amount of walks depending on again you and puppers needs! They will get plenty of playtime as well. Can do some basic training if requested. Rodents: I have basic knowledge of some rodent care as I have had 2 hamster in the past. Will brush up if rodent care is needed and will follow any care instructions by you! Boarding! I apologize in advance but I only board cats. I do have cats of my own but your cat(s) will have their own room and will not have contact with mine. I have a morning to afternoon job. I can visit pet in the morning if needed. Will be able to spend much more time after work. I promise that in the morning they will be well cared for and get the proper care regardless! There will just be extra, extra loving in the afternoon. I have 4 cats at home. 2 are mine and 2 are foster. They get free roam of the house. Access to food at all times and all the attention (or little) they need. This does however mean that no other pets will be at my home unless due to unexpected emergency (natural). If unforeseen emergency does they will be at my home until you’re return home. Your pets safety will be my top concern.

Mae S.Star Sitter
“If you want an amazing and fun pet sitter pick Mae! Mae is fantastic! She has always been my go to choice for my dog Reo before Leo moved out to the west coast to live with my extended family. Mae has been watching my pets for years and she is a hard one to replace. Her absolute love for your animals is unmatched! She is always willing to take dogs on an adventure or chill at home with the cats. She always sends the cutest and funniest pictures and videos of your fur children. Even though my dog is now on the west coast, Mae is one of the few people that I trust with my cats. My cats absolutely love her and it helps that she has a very good understanding of some of the different anxieties my cats have with new people. I have one cat with bad separation anxiety when I am out of town and my other cat is an under-socialized cat who is on medication for sever anxiety and stress. Mae is great at making them feel comfortable when I'm not home and making sure they get the attention they need.”

She was always on time, took Winston for long walks and runs along the ocean, allowed him to direct some of the places they visited and gave him lots of positive feedback and hugs. She cared for him as though he was her own cherished pup. We missed her when she headed back to college. You will be lucky to have Abby walking your dog(s). Carol B”
