“Barbara is so thorough and from the start I felt that she was worthy of trusting my dog with her care! You can tell that your pet is in good hands with her. Thank you Barb!”
“Sarah was very communicative, reliable and kind to my nervous cat. She played a bird video daily for her to help calm, gave her treats and kept everything clean/tidy.”
“Does an amazing job caring for my pup while I’m away at work. Very detailed card of everything she does that day with your dog and includes various pictures and or videos.”
“I had a last minute cat sitting need and Angelica was able to fill it, I didn’t get to meet her in advance but was able to trust her with taking great care of my place & my cats! She sent thoughtful and thorough updates. Would book again!”
“Absolutely amazing from start to finish! She took the time to do a meet and greet to meet our goldendoodle peaches. Asked questions about how we were transitioning her kibble and gave loving care to our puppy while we were away at work. Her reports are detailed with videos and pictures of all the fun they had and she even offered to clean my floors when they got dirty from the salt on our sidewalk from the snow storm we had last week. You will not regret booking her!”
“I was so impressed with Nicole and her care for my pup. This was my first time using Rover, and I felt completely at ease knowing Ivy was in such good hands. Nicole was very attentive, patient, and clearly loves dogs. She sent regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog walker! We will absolutely be returning clients!”
“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”
“Heather is great! We were away for a week, and we felt comfortable and assured that our cat was well cared for. She sent a message and photo update every day, and it was clear she really cared about our little buddy. She even brought a holiday gift from “Heather Claws”!”
“It was our first time leaving, Daphne, our cat alone for a weekend and we were apprehensive in leaving her with a sitter. Patricia took the time to come to our house and meet Daphne. When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”
“Julianna was wonderful! She was communicative, quick to respond, and right on time for Georgia’s drop-in visits. She took great care of our pup and sent us the sweetest pictures and updates while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing Georgia was in good hands and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Meghan is amazing and all over her time stamps are so detailed, they make me laugh as she describes our pups personalities so well! Thank you as always Meghan, we appreciate you more than you know!”
“Briana is wonderful. She great with communication and always provided great feedback with my baby. I can tell he loved her! I would definitely rebook with her.”
“Carol took great care of my cat and sent lots of pictures! She came to meet him before we went away which helped put us at ease. She also brought our mail in for us! Would definitely recommend Carol!”
“Andi is fantastic! She accepted a last minute drop in booking when my scheduled sitter had a family emergency and had to cancel unexpectedly. She came by for a meet and greet beforehand was wonderful. Would happily rebook.”
“Melissa was great! We needed someone to let our golden retriever out during the day while at work. Melissa showed up exactly when we scheduled her to, and sent lots pictures and videos which showed how happy our dog was to see her. She communicated very well during the visit and made sure she took care of everything we needed. We're definitely already looking to book her again for the next time we need dog care!”
About: As the mother of a 3 year old neutered Dalmatian and as a Veterinary Technician I come with the knowledge of wellness and emergency care as well as the exercise needs of your baby! You have a puppy or kitten that wants to play all day long ? No problem! I can teach him/her some basic training/tricks such as sit, stay, and the command “drop it” for safety reasons! (It can be both English and Spanish since I’m fluent on both languages!). You have a senior dog/cat that prefers to cuddle and sleep all day? We can do that as well! I am flexible regardless of age and breed! I can administer medication based on your preference and needs of your pet as well as feed and provide water as needed! My goal is to help your pet feel loved and at peace while you as the owner, get to have peace of mind with who your pet is with! *I provide a smoke, alcohol, and drug free home as well as a play mate if necessary for your dog!* *If your dog or cat is not dog friendly that’s no problem for boarding at my home! Both my dog and your pet can be separated upon request!* I have an open schedule throughout the week based on your needs as a client and the needs of your pet regardless of the time in the day! I provide a peaceful and quiet environment that fits perfect for an anxious pet but also a very nearby dog park within my apartment complex where your dog can run around for as long as they’ll like! I’m flexible for your needs and requests!
“Paz did a great job. She pays very close attention to detail, even going so far as to take lots of notes during our meet and greet. My dog is reactive so needs special care around other dogs. Paz followed my directions and safely navigated around the problems. She was also willing to take care of my dog despite having a sudden bout of diarrhea that started the day before her visit. Lots of pictures and excellent communication.”

We booked twice a day drop in visits with Barb for our two male tabbies while away on a ten day vacation and we couldn’t be more pleased with her care. This is the longest we’ve ever left our boys and from the very first day we felt completely at ease. Barb went so far above and beyond to care for them—giving one of them oral meds at the last minute, preparing treat toys for them at her visits, perfectly following their feeding arrangement and sending tons of sweet photos. She offered to take our trash and recycling out without us asking, collected our mail, watered our plants and made sure that an important package was picked up quickly from our porch. It was such a huge relief to travel without worry knowing our boys were in incredible hands and we’ve already booked with Barb for two more of our summer getaways. Highly recommend choosing her to look after your fur babies!
Angelica did a great job visiting our two cats. She sent lots of pics, and I can see they got lots of love and attention. She also did a great job keeping things clean and brought in our mail without being asked. I really appreciate that! I definitely recommend her.
Robyn was absolutely phenomenal! I was going away on a work trip and feeling a bit anxious about leaving my kitties for an extended period of time as I was going cross-country. This was the first time I was doing this along with using a cat sitter. At the suggestion of a dear friend, I signed up for Rover and Robyn put me at ease immediately. From our first meetup, I knew I made a great decision. She was very thorough in taking pictures and checking in with me and also followed my directions I left for her. I also noted her thoughtfulness and attention to detail and care. She treated my cats with dignity and love and even my dad was in awe of what a great job she was doing in my absence. I will definitely use Robyn’s services again! She is a gem and Rover is so lucky to have her!
Olivia was wonderful and helped keep our minds at ease while we were away. This is the longest trip we’ve taken and were reassured with daily check-in photos and details on our cats. Olivia is always quick to respond and was so wonderful to work with. She provided so many photos that truly highlighted how well the cats were cared for a while we were away. Our cats aren’t the most friendly which she understood and worked with their personalities. Highly recommended Olivia for any cat sitting needs
Kristina went above and beyond taking care of Loki. I can tell she truly took the time to understand what he needed (he has some vision issue and she showed extra sensitivity). I also received updates and pics while I was away so I could rest assured all was well at home :) I am so grateful and glad to have found a pet sitter who I will be returning to! Many m
Marci is an amazing sitter. She came by twice a day to feed and play with my cat while I was away. My cat is a rescue that is a little shy towards new people (and sometimes a little grumpy) and Marci went above and beyond to take care of her. She clearly has a lot of experience with animals, is extremely trustworthy, and I would 100% work with Marci again 😸
Amberleigh did a great job with Luna and was very nice to work with. Very communicative and took great pictures. Gave us important updates about how she was doing and how her visits went. Really cared about Luna and took the time to play and spend time with her. Flexible and willing to work with us for Luna’s needs.
