“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.”
“This was our second time booking Teffni, and once again, she was absolutely fantastic! We have three cats and Teffni is so patient and attentive with each of their personalities. She also carefully managed their different food routines. We loved getting regular updates and photos during each visit. We came home to three content, well-cared-for cats. We’ll definitely continue booking with Teffni! Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Oliver was great! They took care of all my cats’ needs, communicated solidly, and sent pics of them playing that helped soothe the pain of being away from my beloveds lol. It is such a relief to go away and know that my babies will be taken care of! I’d love to book again in the future :)”
“Ariana was a wonderful cat sitter. She watched our two cats during the first time we were away from them, and they were very well taken care of. She followed our instructions and preferences and sent great updates and pictures.”
“Ambar was amazing with our cats! She was not only extremely caring, but also very communicative and took amazing notes and pictures, keeping us up-to-date while we were gone. Even our shy cat, Pintxo was a huge fan of Ambar. We would absolutely have Ambar back to hang with the kitties again!”
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.
“Anise was very communicative and thorough in her care of my cat, Nala! I would certainly ask for her help again, as I knew Nala was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
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.
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.
“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 3 dogs, two 14 year old Labrador retrievers and a 5 year old Labrador retriever. I have trained and taken care of my younger dog and continue to provide senior care for my older dogs. This has given me experience with all ages and a diverse range of doggy needs. I currently have an internship from 9-5 but am willing to do any work after 5 including dog walking, delivering care, and dog sitting. I already take care of my three dogs and would happy to accommodate any other dogs into my schedule. In my home, my dogs are walked twice daily and fed twice a day. They are treated with love and respect, helping them to enjoy their all too short life. I will treat my clients with that same respect and hopefully be able to interact with your furry friends!
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.
“Ilana has now worked with us for almost a year, providing week day visits to our dog during lunchtime. I could not recommend Ilana more highly! She’s very responsive, dependable, and caring with our dog’s needs while we are at work. Thanks Ilana!”
“Sabrina was amazing with my cat Lily while I was away for the weekend. She took great care of Lily and spent extra time playing to give her a constructive outlet for that young cat energy. I would definitely book again!”

South Kensington pet parents share their Rover experiences
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!
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.
Alex was exceptional with caring for my dog, Beren! She was super communicative throughout the process. Sent great updates and photos each day. And most importantly, it was clear from our first meeting that Beren naturally liked her and was excited to see her. He normally has trouble eating for the first couple days when I am away, but he felt comfortable and safe enough with Alex that it didn't affect his appetite at all. Will definitely use her services going forward!
