“Leandra did an amazing job with my dog while I was out of town, came home to a very happy pup. Very timely with updates and made sure to take lots of pictures, highly recommend!”

About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I provide the exercise, affection, and midday relief they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Currently I’m working part time only on the weekends, so I have all the time during the week to care for your pets! Mornings, afternoons, and nights. My pets live the best life in my home! In your home trust me I will care for them as my own. I will follow whatever instructions you give me.

About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
“Great communication. I appreciated that she asked questions about my pets care before acting. The updates were great without being too much. I would book again with her in the future. Thank you!”

About: What sets me apart is my hands on experience as a dog foster, which has given me the ability to care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to new routines quickly and helping pets feel safe and settled in a new environment. I provide calm, attentive, in home care where pets are treated like family. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, whether that includes feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time, or extra play and attention. I’ve cared for both high energy dogs who need structure and exercise, as well as more anxious or relaxed dogs who need a calm, comforting space. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and at home while their owners are away and to keep owners updated so they can feel at ease. My schedule is flexible, I work part time and I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I’m typically home most of the day, so pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I can adjust my daily routine around the pets in my care and make sure their needs are met on a regular schedule. I provide care in a calm, clean, and pet friendly home where safety and comfort are the top priority. Pets are supervised throughout the day and are never left unattended for long periods. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any specific instructions from the owner. I introduce pets slowly into my home to help them feel comfortable and settled. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and all outdoor breaks are always supervised. Inside, pets have a cozy, relaxed environment where they can rest and feel at home. Pets are welcome on furniture if that is allowed by their owner, so they can stay as comfortable as they are in their own home. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, especially during the adjustment period. My goal is to create a safe, low stress, loving environment, and I provide regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing.
“Vanessa was great! Came on time for the drop-ins, and my dogs Romeo and Kaia loved her! She fed them, played with them, gave them treats, and cleaned up after them. Would definitely have her drop in for my dogs in the future again!”

About: Hi! My name is Brianna, and I've been caring for dogs and other pets for over 20 years, including more than 10 years of professional experience. I started out pet sitting and dog walking for neighborhood families when I was 13 years old, and I've been passionate about animals ever since. I later worked at a local animal hospital, where I gained experience feeding, walking, cleaning, and caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I've worked with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets, as well as dogs who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience and understanding. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and one of my favorite things about pet sitting is getting to know each pet as an individual. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with them and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, my goal is to make sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members :) As of June 2026, I work full-time Monday through Friday during regular business hours. Because of this, I may not be available for midday potty breaks during weekday house-sitting stays. Pets who are comfortable being alone during a typical workday are generally the best fit for my current schedule. I may also be a little slower to respond to messages during work hours, but I always get back to clients as soon as I'm able and make communication a priority. I currently provide care in my clients' homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their individual needs and follow the owner's instructions carefully. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.
“The perfect cat sitter. Couldn't have done a better job, with good communication and photos throughout the visits. Five star sitter. Nice and friendly too. I'll be booking again”

“Courtney took wonderful care of our cat while we were on vacation. It was the first time we’d left Percy for so long so I had been a little nervous, but after meeting Courtney and seeing how much she loves animals I was sure he would be happy and safe. She kept in great communication with us, sending lots of photos and videos. She and Percy were best friends in no time! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet ☺️”

“Kristine was awesome with my cat Winnie. She can get scared with new faces but Kristine was kind and gentle with her. 10/10 would book with her again!”

“We were recently chosen by a stray cat. He’s become our indoor/outdoor cat. He warmed up to her so quickly! She took great care of him and bonded with him while we were gone. It usually takes awhile for him to warm up to new people.”


“Michele did an AMAZING JOB, she took care of my dogs at the last minute while I underwent a minor emergency procedure at the hospital. She fed them, played with them and took them out 3 times a day. I am so appreciative of her help and look forward to rebooking her, I definitely recommend her!”

“Devon did a wonderful job of taking care of our dog Frankie during her drop in visits while we were away. Great & prompt communication including great photos and notes from her visit. Highly recommend.”


About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs of many different breeds, and loved them all. Let me help out with your pet and they’ll probably like me too! Currently I have sporadic trips planned until I start classes at the end of August, then my availability will greatly differ but I’m not sure of the exact hours. I can’t care for pets in my home due to one of my cats being very unfriendly, but I will take great care in your home if necessary!
About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.
About: I have been around and owned dogs my entire life, I also have had small animals and exotics the last 5 years. I love caring for animals and it has been my biggest passion. I currently work at an animal shelter that has allowed me to gain experience with all animals! I currently work full time seasonal at a shelter so I can provide pet care in the afternoons/evenings. I am off on Monday's and Sunday's so those days anything would work My care for pets vary on each individual’s needs, I do what’s best for them and what makes them happy! I believe in patience and allowing for the animal to make the decisions!
About: I’m a cat-focused pet sitter who is comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, including shy or nervous cats who need patience and space to warm up. I pay close attention to each cat’s normal routine and behavior. During visits, I can handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, and lots of companionship. I know how important it is for cat parents to feel updated, so I send photo updates after every visit. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30am to 4:00pm, so cat care fits best into my schedule in the early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m available before work for quick morning check-ins, and after 4:00pm I have plenty of time for visits, feeding, playtime, and care. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can provide longer visits or extended care if needed. Since I only provide care in my client’s home, I focus on keeping your cats comfortable in their own familiar environment and maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, litter box care, and any specific rules for the home or cat. I make sure doors are secured, water is fresh, and cats are safe and during visits.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Southgate
Emma is the best! There’s honestly only positive things I could say, she is so easy to communicate with and the genuine care for my dog she has is obvious! Ive felt comfortable leaving her in the hands of my dog and home every time she’s come over which in my opinion is the biggest complement! Me and Journey are so glad to have you there when I can’t be, see you soon and thank you always Emma!!

Hailey went above and beyond to ensure my dog, Sam, had a walk with her. When I provided the wrong lockbox code thanks to a typo, she used all of her resources to ensure she could still complete the visit. This was extra work for Hailey that she should not have had to do, but she figured it out while I was tied up at work, and sent a detailed report with many photos of my dog. Hailey is highly competent and independent and clearly knows how to solve a problem should one arise while your pet is in her care. I will absolutely be working with her again. Great first Rover experience!

First time use of Rover and Valerie for condo visit to feed my cat, His LLordship Llewyn of Wales. Very impressed with Valerie as she showed genuine concern, attention to detail including favorite play toys, accuracy in following instructions, and excellent communication skills including sending multiple pictures. I would highly recommend Valerie for in-home pet visits. Thank you!
