“Always consistent, responsive, kind, and most importantly, attentive to the fur babies! Have had David helping me for some time now and am so glad I found him!”

“Kathleen is the best! This was the second time we’ve booked with her! One of our cats is very skittish around strangers but Kathleen did such a good job she got her to come out of hiding and get some pets - a huge relief while we were out of town! Thank you Kathleen!”
“I could not recommend Alaine enough. She was excellent with communication (cute pics/vids of our little guy, how her check-ins went with him, just all the things). She took excellent care of our cat and he clearly loved her so much!! I definitely recommend reaching out to Alaine for help with your pets, because she clearly has a passion and love for them. Thank you, Alaine!! We definitely hope to work together again soon. :)”

“This was our first experience with Rover. Kristin did a great job dropping in to visit, feed and let out our new puppy. I loved the photos she sent! We will definitely book her again.”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve raised and trained my two family dogs since they were puppies, handling things like daily walks, feeding, exercise, and basic obedience training. I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ and friends’ pets through drop-ins and pet sitting, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already care for my two cats and two dogs every day. I’m currently working part-time as a server, but I still have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide reliable pet care, check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and attention. I’m used to balancing responsibilities and staying organized, so I can consistently make sure pets are cared for and comfortable while their owners are away. I always prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and attentive to each pet’s needs. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any other care requests from owners.
“Suzanne did a wonderful job with our fur babies. Our girl cat can be cranky or a sweetheart and Suzanne knew how to bring the sweetheart out of her. She sent delightful photos of Peanut rubbing all up and down her leg in greeting and running around the house excitedly playing or having zoomies. We knew our cat was in good hands with her from the very beginning - just a vibe - but she proved to be responsible, attentive, and definitely went the extra mile to make sure we knew Peanut was being loved, food and maintenance was being taken care of, and that our other pets were also safe.”
“Kelly watched my dogs for a week while I was on vacation. She did a great job sending me updates and making me feel completely comfortable leaving my two big dogs in her care while I was away. 10/10 recommend!”

“I am so thankful for Ally. She really gave me peace of mind helping me out with drop in visits. The pictures she sent were great and really showed that she interacts with the dogs. I got a feeling she was there to be their friend not just doing a job. I happened to see her on camera being very very sweet to them as well and I could tell my dogs were happy to have her as a new friend.”

About: An experienced pet sitter specializing in dachshunds and small breeds although I accept all kinds of pets! Reliable, loving, and attentive to every pet's unique needs. Because I’m currently enrolled in online school, I’m home all day, which means your pet gets consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, lots of attention, and a calm, stable environment. Along with overnight boarding, I also offer: 🐾 Doggy Daycare A perfect option for busy days! Your pup will enjoy supervised play, enrichment activities, potty breaks, and plenty of love while you’re away. 🚶♂️ Dog Walking I offer reliable, flexible walks tailored to your dog’s needs from high-energy pups needing a good workout to mellow dogs who just enjoy a slow stroll. 🏠 Drop-In Visits Great for pets who prefer being at home. I can stop by for feeding, water refreshes, potty breaks, medication help, playtime, and photo updates so you stay in the loop. I treat every pet like family and make communication a priority. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are at the heart of everything I do Pet care is part of my everyday life—I feed, play, groom, and check in on animals daily, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. In my home, I provide a safe, calm environment with regular feeding, playtime, supervision, and affection—treating every pet like a valued member of the family.
About: When I take care of pets, I treat your home as my own and go above and behind to treat your fur babies as I would my own. My compassion and work ethic make me a perfect candidate for any pet sitting job. I work full time in an office but am very used to taking care of pets in other people’s homes. Due to my work schedule, weekends are best since I am able to spend more time with the pets. However I am totally fine with commuting from other homes to my office if that works for my clients. I figure out what each pet needs and I act accordingly. I treat clients’ home (and their pets) as I would my own: respectfully and with great attention and care. I believe it’s important to be open and communicative with my clients to establish expectations with both the home and the pets.
“Jessica has been great with our dogs. We had a few special instructions and she took care of everything we needed. Our dogs get let out twice a week by her, and sometimes she stays longer than we asked. She’s very good at updating our Rover account with all of the details and photos from each visit!”

“Audrey is my go-to every time I need someone to watch my cat. She sends the cutest pictures and updates. She is also great about communication around when she’ll be dropping in, if there are any changes to her schedule, etc. Thanks again Audrey!!”

“Lizzi is a loving caring responsible life saver for my pup. Great at accessing needs. Flexible to add service when i was out of state. Professional and reputable. Can't compliment or say enough about her capabilities to take care of my difficult unique trauma relief sassing pup. Any questions about feeling confident with leaving your pet alone. Lizzie is the one!!”

“Amanda was great! She sent lots of pictures and made sure my two cats (including a very anxious one) were well taken care of while I was out of town for work! She also left my apartment super clean which was so nice to come back to!”

“Becca did an outstanding job looking after our cat! Even though it was just short drop in visits, she took her time to go the extra mile beyond feeding and clean up after our cat. She engaged by playing with her and petting her which she definitely appreciated! I highly recommend Becca’s services and we will be reaching out to her again for more services in the future!”

Second time booking Samantha, who was a referral from a coworker. I have two cats - one of them being medically complex and I feel relief knowing they are in her competent hands. I trust she has good judgement and cares for them. Last time I booked she allowed me to book an extra day last minute after I got stuck in a snowstorm. This time she turned on different lights and the tv for my cats to watch, which cracked me up but I thought was so kind and a cute idea. Thank you so much, Samantha!

Jeannine and Justin did a fabulous job with our kitties! Spice is elderly and needs medication and they were able to take care of that. She also often uses the bathtub as a litter box. They cleaned up after her a the house was in great condition upon our return. They were also extremely communicative and we received photos and an update each day. I would highly recommend them!
