“Kaia was a great pet sitter! She was quick to respond and sent so many photos and videos, along with great, detailed reports each visit. I would highly recommend Kaia and will be using her again in the future!”

About: I am an animal lover at heart that understands the importance of your animals safety and joy. I have over 3 years of experience watching dogs and cats for friends and families while they have been out of town. I ensure that I will keep your little bundles happy, full, and most importantly safe. I currently work from home and have the ability to walk and take care of pets during the day. Not available for over-nights nor caring for pets at my home. I will follow all rules required by the owners and ensure the safety of the animals I am taking care of. In my home I ensure that my cats are well fed, litter is cleaned twice a day, and necessary play time.
About: I grew up with dogs, and I have an 8 y/o, 100 lb Bernedoodle that I’ve spoiled his whole life. I would love to spoil your pet, too! I am very comfortable with puppies, seniors, big, small, and everything in between. I will be patient with your pet, I don’t mind cleaning up messes, and am comfortable with giving medications. I go to the gym daily and will work that around your pet’s care. Your pet’s care will be my priority. This is my job! I will treat your pet and home with the utmost respect. I will be patient with your pet. I will also be sure to leave your home the same or cleaner than when I arrived.
About: Hi! My name is Jack :) I have spent the past several years working as a veterinary technician, caring for animals in a professional medical setting. I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with medical needs. I love building trust with animals and helping them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own pets, so you can travel with confidence knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 I strive to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet needs morning, afternoon, evening, or overnight care, I will work with you to ensure their feeding, exercise, medication, and enrichment schedules are maintained. Consistency is important for both cats and dogs, and my goal is to keep their day-to-day routine familiar and stress-free while you’re away. I am happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs and create a care plan that works best for them. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. As a veterinary technician with several years of experience, I am trained to recognize signs of illness, injury, or distress and respond appropriately. I provide a calm, patient, and low-stress environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires medication, I will treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets. You can expect reliable communication, regular updates, and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by an experienced animal care professional.
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs for almost 7 years and have 8 years of overall experience caring for pets. I’ve babysat my neighbors’ dogs many times, and they trust me to give their pets lots of love, attention, and care while they’re away. I always send picture updates so owners can feel comfortable knowing their dogs are happy and safe. I also have a friendly dog of my own who gets along well with other dogs, and with permission, I can bring my dog to interact and play with them to help keep them active and social. I’ve been an animal lover since I was in 3rd grade, and some people even call me a “dog whisperer” because animals naturally seem to trust and connect with me. I truly believe dogs are one of the most loyal and loving companions a person can have, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I am currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and overnight care. I have years of experience caring for dogs and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have friendly dogs for social interaction if wanted, can crate dogs if needed, and always follow owners’ instructions carefully. I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while away.
“Katelyn is great! Our Morkie 'Ruby' warmed up to her on their first meet up. Being away from "our daughter" was anxiety-making, we're rarely apart. Katelyn made sure we saw daily photos, and ensured us that Ruby was well taken care of, which was such a relief! Katelyn is our Go-To Pet Sitter!!!”
“Charles was such a sweetheart the entire process! I got regular check-ins and my dog and cat were happy to meet him and well taken care of while I was away. Thanks again for all your help!”
Southern Oaks pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brooke was absolutely over-the-top amazing with our cats! She loved our girls, checked in, and sent lots of photos and gave updates each day. We were able to relax on vacation knowing they were loved and cared for. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Brooke and her pet-sitting. I was afraid my shy girls would hide- nope, they were living their best lives each day with Brooke. I knew it would be fine when they came right out to her when she came for the ‘meet and greet.’ Our cats just KNEW she was kind and gentle. We will definitely book ONLY with her next trip, and feel great about being able to take more trips now that we have Brooke.
Isabela was a great help to my two adult cats after another Rover sitter bailed last minute. She was very communicative and friendly, followed all my care instructions, and went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were cared for while I was away. I look forward to booking with her again!
Kennedy was great! My pups immediately gravitated towards her upon meeting her for the first time. Especially our little one who is the least friendly pup in the bunch lol. She was on-time, friendly shared great photos and reviews. Would def recommend and book her again. Thank u Kennedy!
Mark is the BEST pet sitter on this app! He was able to watch my baby for me on super short notice (because I’m terrible at planning and booking in advance). I reached out a singular night before I had to leave for 3 weeks and he was able to come the next day before my flight for a meet and greet. He sent me picture and videos of my baby DAILY, and even cuddled with my cat, which really made me happy because I am typically home 24/7 and my cat is so needy and always cuddles so I know he was craving cuddles. I’m so happy he (my cat) warmed up to Mark very fast and trusted him 100%. He also stayed longer than 30 min, truly he is the most wonderful sitter I could’ve ever dreamed of. 🥹🙏🏽 Infinity/10. Highly recommend. He is truly amazing, will be booking again!
Tracy was an absolute lifesaver when we needed a last-minute sitter through Rover. After a quick meet and greet, we immediately felt confident she’d be a great fit for our Golden Retriever, Cooper—and she exceeded our expectations. Cooper is a recent rescue who needs a bit of extra patience and care, and Tracy handled him so well. She bonded with him quickly and even helped improve his leash walking. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and highly recommend her services. We’ll definitely be booking with Tracy again soon!
Zarriah is amazing. She truly goes above and beyond; she's very caring, attentive and handles situations with professionalism. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur baby was in her care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet. :)
Katelyn was wonderful with our two golden doodles. She was always on time, followed instructions carefully, and clearly paid attention to the little details. Most importantly, she was so sweet and caring with our dogs, and we felt completely comfortable leaving them in her hands. Would recommend and will use again.
