“Kyle was invaluable by looking after our reptiles on short notice that we were able to have peace of mind while abroad without having to board then. We definitely would recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.”

“Shelby was great! She looked after our 3 cats and was very diligent about giving updates, taking extra photos, and making sure they were well cared for. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Joy did an outstanding job caring for our furry friends while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better person to ensure that our cats were fed, hydrated, and comfortable. She went above and beyond in taking care of our cats' needs and addressing other important matters. Additionally, she diligently checked our mail and promptly alerted us when unexpected events occurred, such as the fire alarm. Joy consistently demonstrated her attentiveness and responsiveness. Every aspect of her care for our cats and our house exhibited her dedication and professionalism. We are grateful for her reliability, thoroughness, and the peace of mind she provided us. She genuinely cared for our cats and our home, and we enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in search of a responsible and compassionate pet sitter. We are eagerly looking forward to booking her services again soon!”

“My pup hasn’t really had an appetite but Sophia was able to get him to eat based all my detailed instructions. I really appreciate her help, she’s always ready and reliable.”


“Paul was the answer to our prayers! We were new to Rover and not sure what to expect. Paul was fantastic! Professional, prompt, and communicative with lots of pics of our very happy doggie on his walks and drop-ins. This meant we could actually relax during our time out of town, knowing that our baby was in very good hands with Paul. Five stars here and a repeat customer for sure!”

“My wife and I cannot recommend April enough! She was friendly, caring, and really sweet with our two cats. She went above and beyond what we had asked her to do for our cats while we were away and provided photos and detailed updates about how the cats were doing.”


“I made sure to Book Dean a few months before my scheduled vacation because Dean is hands-down, without a doubt the best cat sitter. I’ve had many cat sitters in the past and they were all very kind and I felt that my cats were safe with them but it’s different with Dean. When we come home after a long vacation, my cats feel different if they have been watched by Dean. We can tell that they were not only safe and well fed, but they felt loved. Dean brings over handmade cat toys and special treats and engages with them the entire time. We can tell just by the photos how much our cats love Dean. I’m generally a nervous person when it comes to my cats because they are my babies and when we get Rover cards from any other Rover, I immediately have nerves thinking “what if something went wrong”. With Dean, my husband and I have general excitement when we get the Rover card. We are always so excited to see what they have been up to. It’s such a blessing when you know your pets are safe with someone but it’s beyond wonderful when you know they feel loved.”

About: I look forward to sharing my love and attention with pets whose people need a helping hand. I grew up with multiple cats and dogs and became responsible for my own dog at 12. Together my dog and I successfully completed her Canine Good Citizen training where I learned about effective motivation and discipline, animal safety and public etiquette. Throughout my life, I have regularly volunteered with local animal shelters to assist with dog walking and cat socialization and recently I have been helping my housemate with her dog boarding business. I am working part time this summer with flexible hours that give me lots of free time and availability for pet care. I am an active person and would love to walk or jog with your pup. Safety always comes first. Beyond that, each pet is unique and I prefer to follow owner guidelines and routines that make their pet most comfortable. Having your person go away can be very stressful for a pet, so I always do my best to be attentive to their needs while maintaining a calm and familiar environment.
“Namie is wonderful with our two big puppers! We've booked with her before and we'll definitely book with her again! She is very caring, communicative, sends us pics of our girls, and lets us know how everything went during her visit. Thank you Namie!”


About: I provide a highly attentive, structured environment where your dog becomes part of the family, ensuring they get everything they need and more. A Welcoming, Social Home: I have a friendly dog who loves company and a daughter who adores dogs, meaning your pet will receive constant affection and socialization. Versatile & Specialized Care: I confidently handle a wide variety of dogs. My experience includes training young pets with positive reinforcement and providing patient, dedicated senior care. Constant Attention: Thanks to a highly flexible schedule, your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive consistent supervision, exercise, and tailored care. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, as I have a highly flexible schedule and can prioritize walks, exercise, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day and week. This allows me to be reliable with timing, adapt to pets’ needs, and accommodate both recurring care and last-minute requests. I care for pets in my home by following their routine closely so pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get proper exercise and enrichment, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home clean, handle litter or waste, monitor behavior and health, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.
South pet parents share their Rover experiences
Charmaine took great care of our cat while we were on vacation! It was our first time leaving since we’d adopted her, so I was a little nervous, but Charmaine made sure our cat was well taken care of and took a ton of pictures during each visit! She even brought some new toys for our cat, and was content to simple snuggle with our cat on the couch if she wasn’t in the mood to play. Thank you, Charmaine!

Camille was an amazing cat sitter! As a cat owner herself, she truly understands how much cat parents care about their pets and the little details that matter. She was very responsive, reliable, and always on time. I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. She kept me updated, followed all instructions carefully, and treated my cats with genuine love and attention. I highly recommend Camille to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

She was so good with Jessica. Usually she's super shy with new people and she immediately im ate treats from Anne. Her energy was great. Clearly she has a connection with the animals. It was less hard going on a trip knowing my cat was in good hands. She also sent the cutest photos.

Hannah was a wonderful sitter for both of our kitties while we were out of town for two weeks! She ensured we were up to speed on our cats and was super communicative all throughout the booking. Appreciated her flexibility on some last minute booking changes and would definitely be looking to rebook her in the near future 🙂

Mari is such a pleasant person to be around. She understood exactly what it takes to care for an older cat with health conditions like our Ziggy. I really appreciated the level of enthusiasm, attentiveness, and experience she brought, even with a long list of medications and feeding instructions. It’s clear that she genuinely cares deeply about both the animals and the people who love them.
