“I can't say enough good things about Wendy & Desiree B. They take such great care of our cat! Very honest and dependable. Whenever I go out of town I never have to worry about the cat, because I know that she is in excellent hands!”

“We love working with Kristin. Our kitty requires medication twice a day. She is an excellent communicator, who reaches out to us with any concerns and we troubleshoot any issues together. Our kitty really enjoys her company. We will definitely work with Kristin again😎”

About: I've had pets, including dogs, since childhood. My friends trust me with their doggies, of various breeds/ ages, and they refer me to others often. I work from home (remote), but will sometimes be out during the evening for a few hours. I am attentive! I can take your dog out for exercise & potty breaks. I am willing to work with your schedule! Lots of love & petting! Can be on the couch with me. Frequent walks if desired. Can visit dog parks. Good with feeding schedules. Bedding is helpful (and crate if necessary).

“Alena is a great person. She fed my outdoor cat everyday and check and changed the water. I never worried because I knew she would be there. She sent photos and did everything I asked. I highly recommend her.”


“Olivia was fantastic! She was always timely, fed and watered our dog exactly as requested, and made sure to take him outside at the scheduled times every day. I highly recommend her!”

“Kimberly was great with my girls! She kept me informed and provided updates throughout the day. I have no doubt the girls were very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Kimberly and know that she would looks after your pet’s needs!”


About: I've cared for dogs for family and friends many times over the years, including puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, and homes with multiple dogs. My responsibilities have included feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, reinforcing routines, and giving lots of love and attention while their owners were away. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications and carefully following detailed care instructions to make sure each pet stays healthy, safe, and happy. As a full-time elementary school teacher, I'm dependable, patient, organized, and understand the importance of trust and communication. I'll care for your dog as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. As a full-time elementary school teacher, I have a consistent schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care before and after work, on weekends, during school breaks, and throughout the summer. I enjoy spending my free time being active outdoors, so dog walks and playtime fit naturally into my routine. I make it a priority to give each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need while keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. When pets stay in my home, they're treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, rest, and any special care instructions. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I have access to a fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy exercise and enrichment with their owner's permission and if it's a good fit for their personality and comfort level. If a dog prefers a quieter environment, I'm happy to provide individual walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention instead. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, I'll treat your home, your pet, and your instructions with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.
“Aaliyah is amazing with our young puppy! She is always on time, communicates very well, and we totally trust her. You can tell she really cares and has a passion for what she does! Would recommend 100%!”

“James was very helpful with our pittie when we went away for the weekend. He visited twice a day, took her on a walk and sent pictures of her eating and walking outside. We will definitely use James again to look after Ivy! She loved him.”


“Rosangely was amazing with my pets and I would absolutely book with her again! She was very attentive, caring, and detailed throughout the entire stay. She followed all of my instructions carefully and really went above and beyond to make sure my pets were comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I especially appreciated how detailed her Rover cards were because they gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I always felt updated and reassured that my pets were safe and in good hands. You can genuinely tell Rosangely truly cares about the animals she watches, and I’m so grateful for all the effort she put in! Will definitely be booking again, best rover ever!”


About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I have experience with cats, dogs, and senior pets, and I know every animal has their own personality and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medications if needed, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and happy to send updates and photos so you know your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight care with advance notice. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I always follow the care instructions you provide. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll treat your home with the same respect I’d want for my own. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, exercise, companionship, and plenty of love. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and well cared for. I also have experience with oral and dental care for dogs, as well as administering medications if your furry friend is prescribed!
“Carissa was great with our Shiba Inc. Sasha is a stubborn dog that is picky about who she lets walk her and Carissa was definitely let into Sasha's circle. Will use Carissa again.”

“On-time, professional, courteous - Renata took great care of my cat while I was away. Sent a nice update and a photo every time she dropped in. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a catsitter!”

About: My profile saids Michelle, but please call me Micah 🙏😊 My first time caring for a dog was when my family adopted a miniature, silver-haired, poodle puppy, that I named Shadow back in 2007 before attending university. Before graduating high school, my neighbors would ask me to look after their own four-legged family members (mostly dogs and cats) when they went out of town. I provided excellent care for their pets as if they were my own. I also have experience from working at a dog daycare and boarding facility between 2015 and 2016. The facility hosted dogs as small as Yorkies and as big as Great Danes. My duties at the daycare was to supervise play, clean up after the dogs, keep the facility clean, stay overnight for dogs that were boarding, help with feeding, give oral medication and provide transportation for dogs to their preferred vets whenever necessary. Since 2016, I have been providing pet care services through Rover and making long-lasting relationships with families and their furkids. I'm also open to taking care of of other pets as well. We'll just discuss beforehand. I currently work 25-40 hours per week at a salon, so pups that can go at least 8 hours without a potty break or are chill and comfortable in a salon work environment would be the best fit. I currently live in a 3br apartment with my service dog and my domestic partner. I have more experience as a house sitter and can be trusted to keep up with house chores such as collecting mail, watering plants, taking out the garbage, etc.

“Mary is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Deak, while we were away for a few days. She sent daily photos and an itemized list of his "business", and went above and beyond by keeping up with his daily walking routine and even spent time letting the school kids pet him which he loves! It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and has a superior work ethic. We returned to a happy, relaxed dog. We will be booking her for our next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter!”

“I have used Allison a couple of times now and she is wonderful. She always checks in and communicates. My cat loves her and she makes going out of town so easy. I never have to worry!”

I have left several reviews on Allison‘s profile, but I’m always happy to leave more! One thing I love about her is that she loves our kitty! Another thing is that she rolls with the punches, and boy do we throw a lot at her! In this particular case, our flight from the West Coast was delayed by two whole days, and Allison readily made herself available. It’s so great to know that our cat is in good hands while we are away.

This was our second or third time using Alena for our multiple cat home. We had moved since our last visit and she was more than willing to come by and check out the new place assess the new hiding spots prior to our reservation. The cats remembered her even the ones that are not very outgoing went out of their way to get pets from her. We have cats on different diets, meds and the tedious routine didn’t phase Alena. She has great communication, sends adorable pictures and is extremely thorough. We love and appreciate Alena.

Wendy was awesome taking care of our puppy during the day while we were at work. She was punctual and very attentive the whole time. Our pup was in good hands! Wendy played with the puppy and gave her an extra lap around the yard to make sure she was emptied before leaving.

Farrah was outstanding, I cannot recommend her enough. From the beginning she was friendly, professional, responsive, and flexible. She did great with my two cats and was even able to get my shy one out of his shell. She provided me daily photos and a report of how they did. Farrah will go above and beyond on everything that she does. A perfect example was the hand-drawn portraits of my cats she left for me on the last day (farrahfisherart.com; check her out!). Will be booking again.
