“Marna was absolutely wonderful with our cat! She was very reliable and went above and beyond to ensure that we had a relaxing vacation and our pet was well cared for! I would highly recommend her! :)”
“Melissa took wonderful care of our cat for 6 days. She always sent great photos and reported on their interactions. We hope we can continue to use her for cat care for many more years.”
“I had a great experience with Kayleigh! She visited my cats three times while I was away, giving them lots of attention and companionship. She kept me reassured that my cats were safe and happy, and even went out of her way to pick up puppy pads for me. I really appreciated her dedication and care. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! Thanks again Kayleigh 🫶🏼”
“Christina did a wonderful job caring for our cat and birds all week. Her updates and photos were much appreciated while we were away. She was easy to communicate with and responded promptly.”
“I booked Kara last minute, and she was so gracious about it. She even made the time for a meet and greet! I was comfortable with her experience and energy while interacting with our dog and bunny, and she took excellent care of them for us while we were away!”
About: As an animal lover looking for a little extra work, this seems like the perfect fit! I’ve been an animal lover and pet owner for 15 years. Including small pets, cats and dogs. I am comfortable with animals of all sizes and am available most evenings as well as all day Sunday and most Mondays. Ideally I would love to find some folks who I can set up weekly walk times with, or ongoing animal care but am available to anyone who needs an extra hand to get their fur baby taken care of! Availability: Sunday: 6am-8pm Monday: 6am-8pm Tues-Fri: 5pm-8pm I am available in the hours that I do not work my full time job. Available by request prior to 6am. I do not bring pets to my home at any time and ideally will have full conversation with the pet owner to learn about their pets individual personality, needs, and what makes their pet feel safe. I understand that everyone has different living experiences and all pets have different needs. I also understand that owners have their own preferences for their pets which I shall follow.
“Sara was very kind and communicative. She played with our grumpy kitty and kept us up to date about anything going on. We really appreciated her thoroughness and will definitely be booking with her again”
“This was the first time I have been away from my pets for an extended period of time. Nicole was great, very reassuring, and I was so thrilled to see her daily pictures. Even it was me. My cat was hissing at her.🤣 I highly recommend her for pet sitting”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with family pets and then helping out coworkers, roommates, and friends. Now, thanks to Rover, I’ve expanded that experience by sitting for dogs, cats, and even chickens and ducks through multiple bookings. I’ve stayed overnight, done daily drop-ins, and cared for everything from laid-back seniors to energetic young dogs. No matter the setting, I take pet care seriously. I follow routines closely, respect the home I’m in, and always aim to make pets feel calm, safe, and well cared for. Whether it’s their first time away from their owner or they’ve done this before, I treat every animal with the same attentiveness and warmth I’d hope someone would show mine. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’ve built my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention and care. I’m currently studying for the bar exam, which takes place at the end of July, so my days are structured and home-based—perfect for maintaining a steady rhythm for feeding, walks, and playtime. After the exam, my schedule opens up significantly, and I’ll have full availability for longer or more frequent bookings starting in August. I don’t host pets in my home, but I take pride in following your routines closely and keeping pets content in their own space. I’m neat, respectful of your home, and mindful of both your pet’s needs and your home’s security.
“Elizabeth was literally the best sitter we have ever had. She was not only so kind to me after telling her about an awful experience with a previous sitter—but she made me feel at ease! My babies loved her, and I love that she loved my babies. I wish that she wasn’t leaving my area! I’d keep her forever!! Thank you again, Elizabeth. We were both able to fully relax knowing our kitties were in safe and reliable hands 🖤 let me know when you’re back in the area!!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life, I've been a cat owner for a decade, also experienced with small pets like hermit crabs, rabbits, and fish I have a very open schedule, so flexibility is not an issue. I prefer scheduling within normal business hours, but can adjust that as needed I approach new animals (and homes) with respect first, boundaries are important! I lead with openness and patience, and take my cues from the animals
About: I've had animals my whole life. I have house sat my friends and family's pets for years while they go on vacation. In my spare time I work with the animals at the Animal Refuge League both dogs and cats. They have provided different types of training for both cat and canine care. I work from home so I am able to house sit and still continue working. This allows me to be with youe pets as often as possible during your time away. I do not care for pets in my home since I have a cat and a dog myself. (They get watched by my roommate while I'm away)
“Kristal was our very first hire from Rover! I am a nervous wreck over the care of our pets (one blind dog, one dog with epilepsy, one with behavioral issues), and she put my mind at ease instantly. She was responsive, friendly, and great with our (four!) animals. We would invite Kristal back to take care of our pets any time.”
“Sonia did a great job! Our cat was well taken care of (drop-in visits for 3 days when we were gone) and we got pictures and updates everyday! Sonia and Peter are communicative and flexible and a pleasure to work with!”
“Hannah is the BEST!!! I had to be in and out of town for work for two weeks, although my schedule was not consistent at all Hannah was up for the last-minute challenge of watching over Maisey and adhering to my crazy schedule. Hannah showed up on time and spent her time with Maisey (a true senior citizen) giving her the love and attention I hoped for. Turns out I have another crazy week coming up and Hannah was quick to sign up for more visits. Hannah is a true 5 star!!!”
About: Both of my parents were dog breeders while I was growing up, so I have life-long experience with puppies and adult dogs. I train Tamaskan puppies on my mom’s farm. I work well with cockapoos, corgis, plott hounds, Dutch shepherds and retrievers, since they're breeds I'm used to. I'm positive, however, that any dog can be charmed, and have never run into one that I couldn't. I volunteered at shelters and groomers growing up. I did an animal behavior project in Highschool for an extensive period of time. I worked with a 2yr dog with mange and seperation anxiety for 8 months. In 2 months she was house trained, crate trained, whistle trained (for speed while walking:slow or speed up, heel) and knew basic commands. Uses safe vegetable and fruits for dogs as treats. I also have experience with cats, rats, birds, turtles and snakes. Any extra pets will be charged more for care if required of me. On vacation, so I have spare time to spend with some cute animals! I have a cat, but I take care of Tamaskans a few days a week. I love going out for walks with a dog. My first week staying with my sister was amazing because she has 3 dogs (1 foster) that are all super high energy.
