“Alena is exceptional! She has been watching my pets for over a year now. She is wonderful with my dog and 2 cats. I feel very comfortable using her when I'm traveling internationally, she is really great about keeping in contact with me, and sending me pictures with each visit. I would HIGHLY recommend her if you are looking for an experienced, truly caring sitter for your fur babies. Can't say enough great things about her. Thanks so much, Alena!”
“Kristin was great with my kitty’s. She made sure they got fed and one of the cats got meds. It was easy to book with her at the last minute when I could see not book anyone else. After getting home and greeting my cats I can tell they were not lonely while we are gone. I so appreciate her and my cats liked her being there. I would definitely book her 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).
“So communicative and really made sure my babies felt loved while I was gone.Sent pictures with every visit while keeping me informed of their behavior/mood. Wonderful! Will book again ☺️”


“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!”

“I cannot l say enough good things about what a fantastic pet sitter Allison is! She took excellent care of our feline fur kids while we were on vacation and went above and beyond in getting to know them, giving them special attention and making sure their environment was clean and happy. She sent delightful daily updates with lots of pictures, which we loved! We will ABSOLUTELY book her again next time we travel!”

“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%!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life! I've always been drawn to animals and caring for them when they need a voice. I have been volunteering/fostering dogs and cats for many years now and have a lot of experience with all pets and behaviors! I'm currently working part-time remotely so I am able to feed/walk/socialize with your pets whenever it works for you, just let me know how I can help! I have a 7-year-old dachshund/cocker spaniel named Dunkin and a 1-year-old tuxedo cat named Moonie. Moonie is the boss and Dunkin just does whatever she wants.

“Angie did a great job caring for our kitties. And she is thorough with care and keeping the house clean in the areas the pets utilize. Great to see pictures are a report each day about the kitties. A very caring setter!”

“River and Bella were taken care of very well. Laura was able to watch them last min when another sitter had to cancel. Very communicative and sent lots of pictures. Will definitely book again.”


About: I've fostered my whole life and started pet sitting when I was 16. I've got experience with all ages and sizes of animals. Elderly or new born I can care for them. I work a bit but am off on Sunday's, Monday's and Friday's. I work typically from 4:30 pm - 11 pm, before work i am at my clients house then after I get off I immediately go to my clients house about 30-40 minutes is how long I typically stay unless I can stay longer. If there is an emergency my mother or boyfriend of 5 years can help take care of your fur baby's. I have a fenced in yard 4 dogs and 11 cats (7 are spayed and neutered outside cats that just came with the house) a bird a snake and a crested gecko!

“Mary was super helpful with my dog Phoenix!! She made sure to spend time with her and play. I’m sure Phoenix felt very loved and excited to see her when she visited. Thank you, Mary!”

“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: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a dog owner, I know the importance of patience, trust-building, and creating a safe environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. My rescue dog, Orville, has taught me the value of meeting dogs where they are, whether they need extra reassurance, structure, playtime, or simply a calm companion. I take the time to learn each pet’s habits and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free while their family is away. I have always enjoyed helping friends, family, and neighbors by caring for their pets. While I have not provided pet care professionally before or through a platform like Rover, I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for animals and understanding their needs. My experience may not be formally documented, but it comes from years of genuine care, responsibility, and love for all animals. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative. Your pet will be treated with the same care, respect, and affection I give my own. Thursday through Saturday, I have flexible availability and can provide care throughout the day. I currently work four days a week until 3 PM, so Sunday through Wednesday I'm available after 3 PM. I am happy to work with your pet’s schedule and routine! I love spending time in my own backyard, but I also enjoy exploring new places! My pup loves adventures, so we often visit on-leash parks for walks, fresh air, and new experiences. I enjoy giving dogs opportunities to safely explore, get exercise, and enjoy the world around them while always keeping their comfort and safety a priority. Play is a constant in our household! I believe playtime is about more than just fetch. I enjoy incorporating scent games, enrichment activities, and mentally stimulating games into a dog’s routine to help keep them happy and engaged (esp. if it's extremely hot or rainy)!
“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.”

“Allison did an amazing job with my pets/backyard ducks while we had to travel out of State to wrap up a move. She is extremely reliable and communicates well and kept us up to date on how our pets were doing during our absence. She's very professional! I had a lot of specific instructions for her and she remembered every little detail so she's a phenomenal listener which is exactly what you are looking for when you leave your animals in the care of someone else. I can strongly recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting/drop in visits/dog walking/cat care, etc. and we will be sure to reach out to Allison again next time we need to travel out of town.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Southwood
She was an excellent cat sitter! Communication was great from start to finish, and she was always upfront, reliable, and on time. I really appreciated that she wasn’t afraid to ask questions when needed to make sure everything was done correctly and the cats were well taken care of. She also sent great photos and updates every day, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and would happily use her again in the future!

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.

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.
