“Natalie was great with my cats. They loved her and I always got a ton of photos with each of her visits. She is super friendly, her availability was super flexible considering it was around the holidays. I would recommend her over and over again! Thank you Natalie for watching my babies!”


“Julia is awesome! My shy pup warmed up quickly to her and she even got him to eat while I was gone. Also handled walking both of my dogs and gave them lots of love! Loved seeing all the pictures”


“Lauren took amazing care of both my dog, Appa, and my cat, Luna, while I was away. Appa can be a little shy at first, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with him. By the end of her stay, he was totally comfortable and clearly enjoyed their time together. She handled his walks with care and made sure he stuck to his routine. Luna also got plenty of love and attention, and I appreciated how thoughtful Lauren was with both pets—making sure they were fed, happy, and comfortable. She kept in touch with updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. Honestly, I didn’t worry once while I was away. That kind of trust is rare, and I’ll definitely be using Lauren again!”


“I won’t use anyone else if I can help it off river. Nala and Domino respond so well to Jasmine and it probably because she has such a calm energy that animals are attracted to. I appreciate you Jasmine!”


“Brooke is amazing and came through for us immediately when our initial sitter fell through. She played with our kitty and made him feel so comfortable. She kept us updated and went above and beyond! We will definitely be specifically requesting her again! ❤️”


“Erin is the best sitter! We completely trust her with our furbabies! She is attentive and always great at giving updates. We asked to adjust a few more visits right before and she made it happen! Thank you, Erin!!”


“Maddie fed our boys while we were away and did everything as we’d hoped! She checked in every day and was kind enough to ask how they were doing during the 4th of July fireworks. Thank you, Maddie!”


“1st time using Rover & leaving my bunnies alone for a business weekend conference. Jeff was AMAZING. We scheduled a meet & greet so he could meet my dwarf bunnies, & get a hang of what I needed for their care. Jeff was very sweet & patient with my bunnies, was very easy to communicate with & respected & gave them their space. He was very responsible during the scheduled drop-ins, sent me pics to alleviate my anxiety & gave my bunnies the best attentive & kindest service, I could've hoped for. Very grateful my 1st experience on Rover was with Jeff. Definitely recommended!”


“Nina saved me with a last minute request when LuLu and I arrived after a long day of travel from Denver to Orlando. She came to our hotel and got LuLu some much needed exercise and vitamin D. I sent her a lot of instructions and everything seemed to go smoothly and puppy was happy when I got home!”


“Renee is awesome with Bodie. She's been doing drop-ins for us for several months now. We are so grateful to have met her! Renee is reliable, caring, and trustworthy. She's has been so wonderful with our highly energetic dog, making sure that he gets the attention that he needs while we are away.”



“Ashley is a great dog sitter who takes excellent care of our girls! She is great with communication and sends the best photos and videos. Ashley gives me the confidence to know that while we are away, our pups are in great hands.”


“Karen has been watching Bodie for several weeks on a regular basis. She takes excellent care of him and understands his needs. He has been working with an injury which has restricted his play, but Karen provides all of the love and attention to Bodie during each visit. She is always on time, and provides excellent communication! I highly recommend!”


“Colleen was an excellent caretaker for my cat! She was attentive to my cat’s needs, provided me with regular updates, and my cat seemed very content when I returned home. I would happily hire Colleen again and recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”

My spouse and fellow fur parent is working from home full-time which allows me even more flexibility to serve you and your babes. After first meeting with you and your pets, I will always follow all of your instructions on their care inside and outside of your home. There may be opportunity to care for your pets in my home with our menagerie if it all fits. Almost two acres with fenced back yard.

“Jeannette is amazing! She has watched our babies a few times now, and has even done a drop-in visit, and every time we know they’re in great hands. Not to mention, her pup Bob is the absolute sweetest! We’re so happy to have found a sitter that lives nearby that we can trust. We 100% recommend her!”


About: So I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs all ranging from bigger dogs like Great Danes to smaller ones like chihuahuas. I’ve also taken care of cats and multiple kittens, and administered medication to cats as well I’m currently working part time at uhaul so I’ll have plenty of time to play and keep your fur babies occupied while you’re away :) In my home I have a fenced yard and my two cats are indoor cats. When I dog sit whether they have fenced yards or not I make sure to keep them occupied and make sure they’re having fun while being safe.

Would definitely recommend her and would definitely utilize her services again in the future.”
