Evelyn was awesome with our two Frenchies, Homer and Lorelei! She followed all our instructions, sent lots of photo updates throughout the day, and was super easy to communicate with. Everything went really smoothly — we’d definitely have her watch them again!

Chantel was amazing. We have 2 cats that need regular care and medication, as well as a rat who was being medicated too. We went away and came home to cats so calm and relaxed it was like we never left. The house and litter was possibly even cleaner than we left if. She sent regular pictures and updates. I would recommend Chantel to anyone; especially if they have high maintenance pets.

Jenna & Aidan must have done an excellent job taking care of my cat as she didn't yell at me for hours upon my return home!! She was as happy as could be. J&A were very responsive, and timely. I appreciated their willingness to meet up a head of time to see the lay of the land. I would use them again in a heart beat.

Sara was by far one of the best pet sitter we have had! She was communicative, and very trustworthy- both making it extremely easy to work with her. We will be reaching out for future visits! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dogs- this allowed us to both relax on our trip!!

Anna watched our dogs in our home for a long weekend. She sent lots of updates with photos and our pups seemed happy to have her caring for them. Even our most shy and apprehensive dog warmed up to Anna quickly!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was seven. I’ve been riding horses for eight years and just love any animal I can be around. I will walk dogs, bathe them, feed them, sit them basically do anything. I’ve had many dogs I’ve watched in the past and everyone was satisfied. I go to work part time at a vet clinic in Albany NY. My weekends are usually free unless I have a half day shit at the clinic based on my schedule I can always make sure to get to your house and look after your pet at any time if available. i take care of my own animals with meticulous care and love. I have 3 dogs and 7 cats and 1 horse so i know everything there is to know about taking care of them

About: I am a dog lover and I am a nurse practitioner. I’m so looking forward to caring for your dog. Our dog Shadow is a joyful part of our family. Shadow is very friendly and welcoming to all people and all dog visitors. I have had dogs all my life including rescue and black labs for the past 35 years. I have a large front and back yard and our house is set back from the road. There is lots of space to run and play. I have a partially fenced in area in the back where dogs can be walked daily. I work some hours during the day. I am home on all holidays and weekends and will be home for your dog. I may leave for short periods only if your dog is okay to stay alone. I require a meet and greet with your dog. This ensures that your dog is a good fit with our family. Dogs are allowed on our furniture and we love to be with them there. I follow the same routine that you would in our home.

Alyssa is great! My pets and home were well cared for. My dog gets pretty anxious when I go out of town but he seemed very calm and relaxed when I came back. He seemed like he had a great time with Alyssa!

Our senior dog is special needs and has pretty extreme separation anxiety. Natasha stayed with her overnight. We received a detailed update on our girl, including an hour by hour account of how she didn’t sleep bc of her anxiety and how Natasha got up with her several times through the night to walk her and comfort her. I can’t say enough about Natasha’s kindness and patience toward our special needs girl.

Patrick came for a meet and greet and understood the needs of my reactive dog. He did great with her and she warmed right up to him. He took care of her specialty food needs as well as medication. He was also very responsive and kept us updated. We will definitely reach out to him for future sits.

About: I had over ten dogs growing up, both large and small, and have had three cats. All have lived to an old age and had a wonderful quality of life! I work from 7am-3pm Monday-Friday with occasional work from homes, so I can provide pet care in the early morning and/or afternoon/evening! On weekends, I am flexible! I focus on building trust and affection with pets, ensuring play time and pets are on their terms, giving space as needed! I am big on safety and keeping a watchful eye on them.

I have two cats that are very picky about who they will be around and I selected Eydid because their profile shows how passionate they are with cats. It was my first time using Rover or any sitter and I was definitely anxious about it. Eydid is amazing - he took the time to get to know my cats, sit with them, and play with them. They love Eydid and that says a lot! Eydid was very respectful of my home and provided me with great updates and pics & videos of the cats having fun. 10/10 would select again. In fact I already have booked Eydid for another session when I am traveling out of the country :D

About: Dogs are a gift to the earth we will never be able to fully appreciate or understand, the protection and kindness and beauty of their soul is something I truly admire. My roommate in college and longtime best friend has a “Canine Training and Management” degree and I have learned extensive tricks and tools from her to help with any disciplinary issues you may have. Dogs just need to be understood and most of the time we just aren’t listening! I have two cats, who are my world. When I’m not working I’m spending most of my time playing with them, cleaning up after them, and making them happy! I would treat your animals as if they were my own, with the level of protection and care that I would protect my own babies with.

My Great Dane was Katherine’s first sitting. She was very flexible with the meet and greet, punctual, communicated well and often. She made my dog feel very comfortable and me as well. I came home to a clean home, just as I left it. She’s very neat and tidy. Loved that.

Michelle provided house sitting for our 3 dogs and cat. She did a wonderful job following detailed medication and feeding instructions, and provided daily pics and updates on them. The animals were clearly all healthy and happy upon return. I would book her again without hesitation.

About: I started a pet sitting business as a child when my parents wouldn’t get me a dog. I had hamsters and fish growing up. I bought my first dog Jovi in college and found my second dog on the streets of Missouri. They each lived well into their teens (Jovi was 18 when she passed). Now I am pet-less and looking to share my animal love with your fur babies. I am a registered dietitian and yoga instructor, so I know alot about health and anatomy. I familiar with giving oral and injectable medications. I work remotely for myself so my schedule is very flexible. I have a vehicle and can travel. My weekend availability varies, but I keep this profile up to date. I have a small 900 sq ft home that I have shared with many pets! I have a doggy door so they can access the fenced in yard easily. I am very active so I like taking long walks with pets if that is their preference. I live near several walking paths and parks.
