“I am repeated client with Melissa and I really trust her with my beloved cat Oakley! She truly spends time with him and gives him much needed attention while we are away! Thank you!”


“Laura did a great job with our kitties! She even took the time to bring in boxes from our porch. We have an older cat with an unusual no-litter situation which she was very willing to work with. It helped make our vacation less stressful knowing our boys were in good hands!”


“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”


“Alaina did a great job taking care of my dog while I was out of town for a few days. She kept me well-informed with updates and photos, and she was able to accommodate a last-minute request, which was very much appreciated!”


“Olivia was so sweet and attentive to our pup, you can tell she genuinely loves animals. She also communicates very well. She really helped us out on short notice and put me at ease. We would definitely trust Olivia to take care of our pets again in the future.”


“I have never been away from my pets for more than a few hours since I’ve had them for two years. So going away for 2 to 3 days made me so incredibly anxious and I did so much research to find a good sitter for them. Abigail was absolutely the right choice. She is such a good communicator and adding that with the pictures she sent of the babies, it quelled my anxiety. She saw Zoe was whining and pawing at her kennel (which she does even if we’re there lol) she even offered to stay about another hour or so with her. That made me feel so great that she took that initiative to stay with her. The house was left exactly the way we left it. They were all fed, hydrated, and safe. For future visits, we will definitely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced sitter, I would absolutely recommend her.”


“The cats have been really warming up to Liv - even our shyest boy! They all love her visits - lots of pets and treats. Liv has been taking the cutest photos of our babies while we’ve been gone and missing their faces 😊 thanks so much for your help!”


“She was incredibly flexible as my roommate had a funeral and had to change her availability. I appreciate her professionalism, flexibility, and last-minute booking. Literally when she walked in the house, all three dogs and two cats were super affectionate with her. She kept me updated when she came and sent photos. I would highly recommend!”


“Saul was amazing! He took great care of my cat while I was out of town, providing plenty of updates and sticking to her routine. My cat autumn, was very happy when he came to check on her. I highly recommend him!”


“Melissa does such a great job with taking care of our kitties while we are out of town. She spends a lot of time playing with them and giving them pets. We really appreciate her.”


“Katrina last min helped me out on a work trip where the hours were way longer than anticipated. She had longer visits than booked for and took him to the park most days. So thankful! ❤️”


“Dana took great care of our cat while we were away! She sent pictures and a detailed note everyday, which made us feel so much better! I would definitely recommend her for cat sitting.”


“Sandy was fantastic at looking after my kitty, Bug while I was out of town. She gave me updates and all the photos which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her and use her again. Thanks Sandy!😊”


About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a girl—dogs, cats, horses, you name it, so I have tons of experience keeping our four-legged friends happy and healthy. I have cared for dogs of all ages, and have had a dog with special needs, so there is no task that is too big. Your pet will always a in safe hands. I am a big believer in keeping pups active, so I will always prioritize activities to keep your pup happy throughout the day. Hello! My name is Aoife (Ee-fa), I am a college student returning to school to finish my degree at UC. I take half of my classes online, so I can maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate all of your pets needs! I am available Monday through Sunday and most holidays. With my class schedule, I am available most of the day, so your pup will not go longer that 1-2 hours by themselves. I currently have two cats of my own, Wallace and Harvey. Harvey is quite old, and Wallace is three, but they are both have very laid back temperaments and are very comfortable around dogs. I am a homeowner, so you do not have to worry about your dog being cooped up all day. Being raised with lots of pets, your pup is more than welcome to have free roam of the house. I am a big believer in keeping dogs active, so I will always make walks and dog-park visits a priority.

About: I used to work at a doggy day care, I’ve owned and cared for friends and familys animals since I was young. I have two dogs of my own that I love and care for myself as well. I am a very active and confident person when it comes to dog walking. I am currently serving part time 4 days a week and my shit starts at 9 and ends at 3. I am home a lot. I have an apartment that's on the first level. I go on daily walks about 3-4 times to ensure they are well taken care of.

“Leo is an amazing dog sitter. He even learned how to give insulin to our pup which allows us to leave town and feel confident Baxter will be taken care of. You won’t find anyone better!”


About: I have been pet sitting cats and dogs for about 6 years! I grew up with an Australian shepherd mix who was very high energy and required long walks and lots of playing to get his energy out, so I am used to high energy animals. I am a college student and am currently working a co-op job 9-5, Monday-Friday. I have availability after 5 pm on weekdays and open availability Saturday and Sunday. I want to take care of your pets to the best of my ability and make the time they spend with me fun! I will follow directions and let you know if I have any questions.

Aoife B.
“Aoife is an animal mom! You will not be disappointed. She has taken care of our 4 pets, two large dogs and two cats countless times for 7 years. She has done daily dog walking and also house sat for us to take care of our 4 pets while we were away on vacation. She is highly responsible and a great communicator in addition to being an animal lover. Aoife always takes notes and asks questions to make sure she is clear on our expectations around what they needed or would check in if she was unsure while we were away. She communicated in advance when she was on her way over, when the walks were completed, and to set up alternate time for walks on the off chance she ran into a conflict with the schedule. She is also very comfortable when we would provide feedback on what needed to be adjusted or done differently. No awkward moments. The dog's needs were definitely met with daily 1 hour minimum walks/play time with the pups per day per our request. She would take them to a variety of locations for a hike, a play in the park, a neighborhood walk, including playing catch with our super energetic pup, complete with photos and a general update each day. Aoife also did the occasional video when the pups or cats did something cute or when she was helping them practice a behavioral skill such as sit, laydown, or stay when we were working on crate training them for travel. She also always made sure litter boxes were kept up to snuff, the animal specific meals were done as requested, and the house was in order and often in better shape than when we left. Our pets were very happy with Aoife, and they showed it by cuddling with her and also always being very excited to see her. I would highly recommend Aoife as a trustworthy, friendly, reliable, skilled, flexible, mature person to work with. She is an excellent pet sitter.”

“My dog absolutely ADORES Lily, he wriggles and cries when he sees her approaching the front door and then follows her around once she's inside. Lily is an excellent dog walker and always stops to let my dog sniff, to his heart's delight! 10/10 would hire to dogsit again!!”
South Fairmount pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emma and William were true lifesavers for our boy Thompson Thompson. He had been having some health issues and we were worried about him being alone while we left for 10 days. But William and Emma stepped up and not only relieved our anxiety, but became good friends of Thompson. They took great care of him, giving him his daily medicine, cleaning his litter box and spending time with him in our home. Seeing that he was fine at home allowed us to enjoy our trip without anxiety because we knew he was in great hands.

Morgan made the effort to come to my house to meet my dogs ahead of our scheduled drop in. She was always quick to respond and even picked up trash in my backyard so the dogs wouldn’t get into it. I really appreciate someone like Morgan taking care of my babies while away.

Melissa was absolutely amazing. She was prompt, CLEARLY concerned that she had all the information she needed to take care of my cats, and flexible about some last minute complications with my plans. Melissa sent me awesome pictures and notes each day, and had my shy, timid boy eating up her affection. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Robyn was amazing with our cat Eevee. She has a lot of experience with cats so I felt really comfortable leaving our cat in her care. She followed feeding instructions well, kept the litter box clean, and spent extra time playing with Eevee. Highly recommend!

Marissa was great as always! She always takes good care of my two kitties while I travel to visit family overseas. She understands their personalities and lets them warm up to her at their own pace. She also pays attention to the little details around my apartment, keeps it tidy, and lets me know if anything seems off, which I really appreciate. I would absolutely book her again in the future if I need a sitter again.
