“Andie did great with our skiddish kitty cats over the holiday weekend. She made sure she saw them, tried to get them to warm up to her, and listened to instructions well in regard to feeding them / cleaning up their area. She was also delightful during our meet and greet and exhibited her vast knowledge by chatting about her history of cat care. Overall, we are pleased with Andie and highly recommend her for your feline family members! 😸😸”



“Heather came to the rescue on short notice (literally within a few hours) when my other sitter canceled. She sent lots of pictures and made sure my boy was cared for. Definitely recommend!”


“Andrea has been amazing taking care of my little guy! We’re new to the area and it’s been an adjustment, needless to say we’ve gotten a great routine down and Andrea goes above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. Thank you so much!”


“Nevaeh was fantastic! She arrived right on time and went above and beyond during her visit. She took Mia out to the backyard for a potty break, brought her back in, spent time playing with her, and even checked in on our cats—despite only being scheduled to let the dog out. We’re very happy with the care she provided and will absolutely be using her services again in the near future. Highly recommended!”


“Morgan was absolutely perfect. I just got a puppy about a week before her sitting and needed help asap. She was quick to reply, super sweet and very understanding of specifics that I needed (certain commands to use and certain things to do). She went above and beyond when taking care of my puppy Pluto. She walked him, changed his potty pads, played with him, loved him up and more!! When Pluto happened to escape from his crate when I was at work she happily went back and put him in for me. Without a doubt the best sitter I have had yet through Rover. I have already booked with her again. 1000000/10”


About: I treat all animals like my own always playing and walking them pet them all day so they know they are always loved and happy. I am currently working part time but I can do any time that I am not working or after that but barely getting hours right now. I have a fenced yard 2 dogs 4 cats but the cats like being outside now always feed them play with and hug them they are always loved.

“Harper is a wonderful pet sitter!!! Her love for all my creatures and care of my space was evident in all her actions. She was kind, communicative and attentive. I would absolutely recommend her and book her again. Thank you for caring for my little family when we were away 💓”


“We're so glad we found Kevin! I always feel sad to leave my pets behind but after the meet and greet, I knew my dog was in good hands. Kevin sent me pictures of Carmel every visit and gave me updates on each visit. It definitely made our vacation more enjoyable knowing my dog was has having a good time as well. Highly recommended”


“Nicole is just perfect! She is very kind and really cares for our dogs. She went above and beyond to make them feel safe during stress times.”


About: I have always been an animal lover. Growing up, I always had at least two dogs in the house with me. My parents always instilled never ending love for the family pets into me and nothing make me more comfortable than a furry friend by my side. I also spent some time working for a dog boarding facility in my hometown of Wichita, Kansas. While loving every minute of it, I would like to pursue that feeling again by working for Rover and taking excellent care of your furry friend. I work full-time at a local high school as a coach. My schedule is open in various slots in the day for dog care, and my job allows me to take care of any tasks I need to throughout the day as long as my work is not affected. I am usually off work by 5:30 pm and live just minutes away from work. I also do not work on weekends, so those days are full of opportunity. In your home, I will make sure the pets are safe and getting as much love, attention, and playtime as they deserve! When on walks, I will ensure they are a safe distance from vehicles and that they are cleaned up after.

“Stephanie and Elizabeth have always done a great job for us, both now and with our previous cat. We never have to worry about our boys being well taken care of.”


About: My name is Amanda. I am a working mom of two and two step kids, but I work full time. I currently have two kids (14 and 12) and two step kids 50% (14 and 7) as well as one dog (medium size, named Bean and dog friendly). Other than my own pets I have experience watching family and friends pets for various reasons from boarding, to dog walking. I have experience with administering medication and insulin to those pets as well. My job is flexible. I work close to home full time with frequent opportunities for breaks, so I am available during a wide variety of times needed. While boarding I have opportunity for a number of walks a day. I have a fenced in yard. If I care for multiple dogs, I introduce them slowly, and always feed separately, to avoid any issues. There is opportunity for blended play/snuggles as well as 1:1.

“Kaci helped me out with last minute dog & cat sitting when my friend unexpectedly cancelled the day before I left for a camping trip ? She kept me up to date with pictures from each drop in visit, and was always quick to respond to my messages. When I got home, I could tell my pets had been loved and well cared for while I was gone. I’ll definitely reach out to her again if I need pet sitting help in the future. Thanks Kaci!!”


About: I’ve own and care for all kinds of pet over my years of experience! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, fish, turtles, and lizards. I am very passionate about forming bonds with every animal I interact with. I believe every animal has a unique personality and my goal is to bring it out in them! I do work full time during the week as a infant teacher, but live close to work so potty breaks will not be an issue! Weekends are completely open so I will have plenty of time to enjoy your animals company! I live in an upstairs condo, but offer multiple extended walks a day. There is a small dog park within walking distance that is a great place to run out extra energy! I have crates handy that can be used as needed. I am a firm believer or animals in the bed, so don’t work your furry friend will enjoy lots of love and attention.

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats on and off for about 10 years for friends, family, and neighbors. With extensive experience in pet and house sitting, I offer a comprehensive service that ensures your home and pets are well-cared for while you're away. From daily exercise and feeding routines to administering medications and managing special diets, I ensure each pet receives personalized, attentive care. Whether it's a short visit or an extended stay, my goal is to provide peace of mind for pet owners while delivering top-notch care and affection to their beloved companions. I am a full-time student in the Dental Hygiene Program at SCF and don't have any jobs outside of this. My schedule is Monday through Friday, and two days are pretty lengthy, from 7 am - 4 pm. I’m skilled in maintaining a clean and secure home environment and handling mail collection, plant watering, and security checks. I make sure to stay in communication regularly with the homeowners and ensure their pets are happy and their home is well cared for.

“Haddy was amazing. I got to see cute pictures of my kitty while I was traveling and cool updates on how all was going. Haddy even went above and beyond helping to take out the trash! Thank you so much. Will be requesting her for any of my sitting needs 🥰”


About: No corn dogs here, for pet's sake. I can take your pup on a long walk or a potty break. We've dog gone and done it! I'm currently working part-time so it'll be a piece of cake to squeeze your pup in and get them out of the house and have a paws-itive pet experience. I will check fence gates before letting your pup out, keep the key with me at all times and return afterwards, and do a final check.

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes ranging from weens to rotties. I have experience training puppies up to 2-ish years on basic commands, crate training, and socialization. I dont mind spending time walking around the block, throwing the ball for extended periods of time, or lying next to them for a period of time so that they feel loved, heard, and cared for. I do not groom. but if doggo needs a bath or brushing, I can give them a bath and brush. Our family is a poodle family, so I know the importance of keeping up with brushing. I also have cat experience. Almost 10 years ago, the Cat Distribution System of the Universe granted me Tigger, my Maine Coon. Though her, I learned how much cats genuinely better our lives. I love all furbabies and will make sure that they are well cared for when you are away. I am a teacher by day and a pet sitter by night. I am available between the hours of 4pm and 7am, with fairly open availability on weekends and holidays. I can house sit during the week while I work in the school, coming back on my lunch and planning period to spend time with your fur baby, if you are comfortable with that, also pending distance from the school. Feel free to reach out. Since I live in an apartment, I am unable to take your baby to my home. Rest assured, I will make sure that your pooch is walked (pooped and peed), loved, fed, watered, medicated (if required/needed), and safe. My priority is your baby. I treat all furbabies like they were my own, so that means they come first on my visit.


“Casey took excellent care of our dog, Whiskey, and our cat, Malibu, while we were away. She was professional, attentive, and made sure they were happy and comfortable the entire time. It was a very pleasant experience, and we felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such good hands. Highly recommended!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years as a volunteer rescuer. I help treat, feed, medicate, and rehome animals with patience and love. I currently have 6 rescued cats at home, all spayed and cared for. I’m calm, reliable, and deeply intuitive with pets of all kinds — from dogs and cats to birds and reptiles. I also have experience giving injections and oral medications. My mission is always to make animals feel safe, respected, and loved. 🐾I’m currently self-employed with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time to caring for your pets. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays — including last-minute visits. Your pet’s needs will always be my top priority. 🐾I treat every pet like family — with love, respect, and patience. I’m experienced with giving medications, handling anxious animals, and ensuring a calm, clean environment. I follow any specific routines you provide and prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, whether at your home or mine.
