“Julianna is amazing. Reliable, Trustworthy, Communicative and Kind. Couldn't recommend her more. It was a relief to know that our precious kitties were in great hands.”
“Teffni is a fantastic pet sitter! We have 3 cats, one who is outgoing & two that are shy, Teffni was so great at letting them get to know here at their own pace. She also handled their different food needs and Nibblers medicine. She gave us updates and pictures during each visit so we knew the boys were happy and well taken care of while we were out of town. We came home to 3 very happy cats! Will definitely book Teffni again!”
“Joseph took great care of our chickens while we were out of town. He showed up diligently at the same time every day and made sure they had everything they needed. The ladies were happy and healthy when we returned!”
“Another great experience with Ariana. Spencer and the house were in great shape when I returned, and loved seeing pictures of Spencer playing with his feather toy.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Ri! My cats are very shy with new people, but Ri was able to win them over almost immediately. Ri took excellent care of them (as well as my plants) and sent the best pictures/updates after each visit. I’ve never felt better about leaving them with anyone and I have already rebooked for my next trip.”
“Great communication and dedication! Anise spent a lot of time finding my cats’ very effective hiding spots in our new home! We look forward to having her back soon! :)”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and love animals. I’m highly responsible and always give lots of love and attention to the pets in my care. I work in the legal field and work from my home office Monday through Friday. I’m available during the week and some weekends. Your pet will always receive great care in my home. I have a private dog park at my condo that is rarely busy. Your pets can be crated or roam free in my home. They are also allowed to lounge on my large sectional.
About: Hi, I'm Marissa - I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, but especially the big goofy ones (I recently lost my Great Dane to cardiomyopathy). Further, if your border collie needs a running buddy, I'm your person! Helping get dogs physically and mentally fulfilled so they can be their best selves is something I've spent years researching and learning about. I can't wait to meet your pup! I'm currently working part time, and able to take in drop-in visits with fairly short notice. I'm also training for a 10k, so having a four-pawed running buddy would make my runs even better! While I don't offer in-home services, understanding your dogs "vibe" is incredibly important. I know how to take cues from their energy and build up our relationship from there.
About: As a lifelong pet lover and dedicated dog owner, I bring over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Growing up with dogs and providing loving care for my own, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and companionship in pet sitting. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight care, I ensure each pet feels safe, happy, and well-cared for. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I am flexiblemost hours of the day for dog walking. I believe dogs need a routine and consistence times they get to go on walks or play or go to the bathroom. I provide loving, attentive, and personalized care whether in my home or yours. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment with plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I maintain their daily routines, ensuring they feel at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize familiarity and consistency, following their regular schedule to reduce stress. I also offer basic home care like bringing in mail and maintaining a tidy space. My goal is to provide a seamless, worry-free experience, keeping pets happy and owners updated with regular check-ins and photos.
“Our family had the opportunity for a last minute trip and we were concerned about finding someone to drop in for our cat. Madalyn was amazing with her quick response and flexibility to meet prior to our trip over a holiday weekend. When we returned, our cat was happy and well taken care of. We can't wait to work with Madalyn again, with more notice the next time!”
“Laura took great care of our dog. We couldn't ask for someone to be more communicative and thorough, and we felt well-informed. Our dog was very happy and loved seeing Laura, we couldn't ask for a better sitter!”
“Christina is an absolute gem! From the moment she met my little puppy Chester, I could tell she truly cared. She’s so dedicated and passionate about what she does, and it shows in every interaction. She goes above and beyond, noticing all the little things Chester likes and does, and she works with him so patiently and lovingly. My baby absolutely adores her, and I have such peace of mind knowing he’s in her hands. I can’t recommend Christina enough—she’s not just a pet sitter, she’s someone who genuinely loves and cares for your fur baby as if they were her own.”
About: I have taken care of cats for my entire life. I have raised my first cat from kittenhood, and have cared for my parents cat for the better part of ten years. I have also cared for my parents' dogs, both their elderly doxie and bulldog puppy. I promise to care for your cat or dog with the same level of care I have given to all the pets I have cared for over my entire life. I am available all week round. I run my own business from home; I am happy to visit your cat or dog whenever is best for you and your pet. When you schedule with me to check in on your pet, your pet is my priority. If you have any concerns, I will be sure to address them. If I bring any treats with me, I will ensure that they are vetted by you and your pet. But most of all, I will make sure that your cat or dog is just as happy and healthy when I leave as can be.

South Kensington cat parents share their Rover experiences
Caroline was a wonderful caregiver for our cat, Mila. She was caring and attentive to our cat's needs. We loved getting her pictures everyday, they captured Mila's personality perfectly. It was clear from the photos that Mila readily greeted Caroline and felt comfortable with her. Out cat is a messy eater but her feeding area was very clean when we came home. Because of Caroline, we were able to enjoy our vacation worry-free. We definitely would want her take care of Mila next time we are away.
We had an amazing experience with Teffni! She cared for our lab and three cats for 9 days and went above and beyond. She was incredibly attentive, responsive to messages, and kept us updated with lots of great pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pets were clearly well-loved and cared for. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and will absolutely book with Teffni again!
Victoria was so great with my kitties. This was our first time using Rover and she put me at ease. She was patient and caring with our slow to warm fur babies and by the end of the week had multiple play sessions with them. There was a good amount of communication and daily pictures for us to enjoy. She even agreed to check in with our red-eyed tree frogs! Thanks to Victoria (and kids) for giving our cats love while we were on vacation!
