“Ana took care of our two cats while we were away! She was amazing and payed careful attention to details. One of our cats is very shy, so she made sure to update us on how he was doing. You can tell she has experience with cats because she played with our outgoing cat and respected our shy cat’s space. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“We have a feisty old kitty who is very hard to medicate. Andee has been more successful with medicating her than any other pet sitter we have tried! We are very grateful for Andee’s excellent animal care skills.”
“Dustin is the best! He is so friendly, kind of like family so you feel comfortable leaving your family pet and can relax on vacation. He watched our cat for us and even sent pictures daily. Will definitely use him for our next get away.”
“If I could give MORE than 5 stars I would. Natalie was fantastic with my cats, and took special care to make sure both of them were happy and comfortable throughout our trip. She gave us very detailed drop in notes, played with our kitten to wear him out, and treated our special needs older cat with as much care as we would. It's clear she cares for each animal she watches over. Thank you so much again, Natalie!!”
“Bethany took great care of my cat while I was on vacation! She not only fed her, but spent time playing with her and giving her the attention she needs. She also went above and beyond to water my garden in the middle of a heat wave, which I really appreciated. It’s a great feeling to know your pet is in good hands while you’re gone, and I never had any doubt that Bethany was taking great care of my baby. I will definitely use her pet-sitting services again in the future and highly recommend her if you’re looking for help!”
“I’ve had Alma scheduled for drop ins for the past few months on the days I work. She is really good and patient with my teenage dog. She even helps with his training. She’s very communicative, replies fast and leaves a detailed note with good pictures. Very flexible with her schedule especially in hotter days. Never missed a visit. Able to do any of my requests. She has been very consistent with me.”
About: I havs Raised border collies for almost a decade. I am experienced in all life stages of dogs. With the leashes in hand, im ready for another day of paws and purpose. $20 off your first walk https://www.rover.com/sit/flynnj11150 I am available Monday-saturday, 6 days a week, with the exception of Sunday. My schedule is open, as dog waking is my primary job. I look forward to serving your pets needs. I make the effort to make the clients dog feel safe and comfortable at their home. I respect the home owners wishes in regard to their dogs routine.
About: I’ve grew up with dogs and taken care of them when someone’s in a pinch. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their furry companions and I truly love doing it. I’m super attentive and make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s a senior pup who needs extra patience or a high-energy dog who wants to play all day, I adjust to their vibe and needs. I have a relatively flexible schedule during the week and weekends. Whether it’s a morning, lunch time, or evening check-in I can make it work. I take keeping your pet safe very seriously, just like I do my own. I’m very diligent about instructions and also being attentive about whether or not a pet is friendly towards others or what environments the shoulder should not be in.
About: I approach each dog as individuals to understand their personalities. As a pet parent, I’ve owned five dogs, three of which unfortunately have moved on to the rainbow bridge. I currently have a 5 year old Aussie and a 3 year old border collie mix, both a calm and friendly to dogs, cats, and people. I work a regular job from 8am - 4:30pm M-F, with remote work from W-F. My availability are any remote days and weekends. I can watch your dogs at home during those days or check in on them after work hours and anytime in the weekends. I spoil my dogs and cats. I make sure to play with them daily and take them for walks. Having an Aussie and border collie demands it! Both our dogs know when it’s bed time and sleep in our bedroom. Luna the border collie sleeps in our bed, the best snuggle bug ever.
“Reece was conscientious and accommodating—meeting the cats before the first drop in and getting all the details of their care. He sent lots of pictures and helpful updates following the drop in!”
“Debbie is the absolute best. She takes great care of our two kitties and is super diligent with twice a day insulin for our diabetic boy. Her updates always have lots of pictures and detail, and she clearly enjoys and cares about what she does. We’ve booked her many times over the last year and a half and always feel reassured that our cats are in the very best hands when we’re out of town.”
About: As a dog owner of 2, I value someone who will treat my dogs as their own. As a dog sitter, your dog would be in the best care and will receive all the love I give my own. I mostly work from home Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm so I am available anytime after 5pm during the weekday and anytime on the weekends. If needed, I can also be available for early morning during the weekday. I would like to sit only at clients homes so each pet will can feel the most comfortable. Also since I have 2 dogs at home, feel like it is the safest option to only be at clients home.
“Mooney provided care for our dogs on Thanksgiving Day while our longer-term sitter was out. One of our dogs requires around-the-clock care, and Mooney was a lifesaver. After our previously scheduled sitter cancelled at the last minute, Mooney came by, met with us, learned how to take care of our disabled dog, took notes on everything... He was very professional, and the dogs loved him - even the one who is sometimes skittish with new people. On Thanksgiving Day, he let me know when he had arrived, sent me updates and pictures, and gave the dogs their meal and medicine. He did multiple potty breaks, which is a big ordeal with our disabled dog. I actually felt relaxed on Thanksgiving Day even though I knew I had sitters trading off while I was out of town! We will definitely keep Mooney on our go-to list of sitters.”
“Georgia is great! Georgia was very communicative and so detailed in the updates. I appreciated how Georgia really tried to get to know my cat and give me the most descriptive updates. I arrived with my cat’s food and water bowls full and a clean litter box. Thanks again Georgia!”
“Absolutely an above and beyond sitter; she dog sat one of our pups that has behavioral health issues from prior abuse. I was worried all weekend how his care would be, but she handled this job with such ease. My dog liked her off the bat, which is a bit uncommon for him. She pet him, played with him, refilled his food and ensured water was there everyday. She even assisted in cleaning one plastic bottles that my dog got into when I was gone, she was so kind and respectful to the home. On top of her amazing work and compassion, she also gifted my doggie a bed, since he loves to destroy the many we buy him. Along with her kind gestures, she also provided pictures of my dog during her stay over with him. Overall she is an amazing sitter and I will love to have her again. I definitely look forward to booking her again for any future dog sitting.”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. When I was 8 years I care for and found homes for 2 liters of puppies for a neighbor. I have cared for all breeds shapes and sizes of fur and not so furry babies. All breeds welcome! ❤️ I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open. I will have my tiny animal lover with me unless that that does not work for you. I can make other arrangements for her. ❤️ I have a home with a big yard on corner lot for day care or overnight care✨🌙. There are two very old smedium dogs that don’t get up much. I have baby gates up throughout the house so if anyone feels more comfortable in a section of the house they can have their own separate suite.
“Monti took my dog on daily walks and gave him food & fresh water. I witnessed a little bit and he was highly competent with my dog. I asked him if I can extend. He did extend, though the price was higher.”
“Alayna, first things first thank you for caring for our fur babies. Alayna was punctual and did everything we asked of her. She’s an amazing Rover. If you choose Alayna, worrying about your fur baby while you’re away will be a thing of the past. She ensures your fur baby is treated like the king or queen they are.”

South City Farms pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were absolutely thrilled with Copeland’s work! She has excellent communication skills and is willing to go above and beyond for pets and their families! She dealt with our kitty having accidents and adjusted accordingly. We will definitely book her again!! Thank you, Copeland :)!!!
Ashley was great! She is very reliable and communicative. She showed up to feed my kitty like clockwork, twice a day. Whenever there was something to communicate she did, right away. My front gate was jammed one morning and she contacted me with suggestions about entering through the back. She was very respectful of my apartment and kept things neat. When I got back she offered to bring back my key without me asking for it, and came very quickly. The entire process was effortless. She is great. I highly recommend her!
Tessa was all we had hoped for to our 16 year old dog. He loved her from the start and she was intuitive and patient with him and his various older dog issues. She’s really easy to plan with and we hope she will help take care of him when we can’t for the rest of his life.
Melody and Vicky came to our home so we could introduced our dog to them. Our dog usually takes days to trust new people. However, Bentley almost immediately warmed up to them both. 🤯 While we were traveling we received several pictures. We especially love the one of Bentley sleeping in their laps. My wife and I will definitely use Melody and Vicky in the future. We highly recommend these two dog lovers!

Hope is the best!!!! When she is watching our two cats I know she cares as much about them as I do! She is an excellent and thorough communicator. Hope takes and shares the best cat pictures which helps us miss them a little less while we are away. We are so grateful for the love she shows our cats!
Grace is the very best. I can travel without a care when she is there with my 2 felines. She is an excellent communicator and, most importantly, she is able to respond quickly and maturely if the occasion arises when a decision or action is needed. I recommend her without reservation.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about the care our dogs received while we were away! From the very start, it was clear that Meskerem truly loves animals and understands how to connect with them on an individual level. One of our dogs—a senior corgi-beagle mix—is very slow to warm up to new people and requires a lot of patience, gentleness, and understanding. Meskerem gave him just that, never rushing him and always respecting his boundaries, which earned her trust in a way that truly warmed my heart. Throughout our trip, we received thoughtful updates and photos that clearly showed how comfortable and well-cared-for all our fur babies were. It brought such peace of mind knowing they were not only being looked after, but loved. Meskerem went above and beyond with the little things—sticking to their routines, paying attention to their moods, and even picking up on quirks that only someone who truly cares would notice. We came home to happy, relaxed pups—and that says everything. I’m so grateful to have found someone who cares for our dogs as if they were her own. We’ll absolutely be booking with Meskerem again. If you’re looking for someone who brings empathy, attentiveness, and genuine love to pet care, look no further.
