“Paul took excellent care of my kitten Clover while we were away. Clover has a wild disposition, and so is choosy about who she likes, but Paul won her over. He took lots of pictures and took the time to make her comfortable. Thank you!”
“Kate has been so awesome with my dog, Diesel! She went above and beyond to care for him like her own. Constantly kept me in the loop with pictures and messages. I couldn’t recommend Kate enough, I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Lucy took wonderful care of our senior cat. She was reliable, communicative and gave the best updates. She had an obvious love for animals and we would highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Megan is always so patient with Norman, even with his stranger anxiety. She always goes the extra mile in making sure he's safe and happy. I feel lucky to have found Megan!”
“Katy did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. Her daily photos of them and updates were much appreciated and made it possible to relax and enjoy our Christmas visit with our daughter, son-in-law and baby grandson in Seattle. We returned to two happy, well fed kitties with clean water to drink and clean litter boxes. We feel fortunate to have Katy available to care for our cats and look forward to being able to book her again.”
“Olivia took fantastic care of our cat Milton! He is older and usually very shy around strangers, but she was able to make friends with him over the course of our time away and he came out for scritches and treats!💖”
“Andrew provided excellent care to our cat Hercules over the Christmas holidays. When something was out of place, he proactively reached out to us so he could confirm and get advice. When we ended up arriving home earlier than expected, he accommodated. We’re definitely keeping him in the Rolodex!”
About: I’ve had a dog for almost all of my life and love every single breed, shape, size and color! I had 3 dogs at once all different ages, sizes and personalities. I’ve recently found myself in a position in life where I do not have a fur baby of my own, so I thought I’d give this a shot! One big perk: I work full time at a compound pharmacy where I make vet medications so I know the tricks of giving them and how important it is to give them accurately. I currently work full time Monday through Friday 9-5, but can adjust my schedule to earlier or later if need be. I also have the option of a one hour lunch break. My schedule is usually pretty open on the weekends. I have no problem with dogs free roaming or being in the crate. I love after work walks and play time to help keep them occupied and happy.
“This is the 2nd time Jenna has watched my boy Reggie. She goes above and beyond to make sure his high energy demands are meant. Thank you Jenna for taking such good care of my buddy!”
“Outstanding person and sitter!! Helped us immeasurably when we could see on camera that our cat was not eating as usual. She is also so good at really getting what you are asking, even if there are details. We are so thankful.”
About: I’ve sat for a variety of sweet dogs and cats. From elder cats with dietary issues, shy cats who prefer to be left alone, puppies who adore attention, and chill grown up dogs who just like to hang out. I work full time from 8-5 on the weekdays so unfortunately I can’t be there full time those days. However I do have a flexible lunch break and can make sure a dog or cat is fed/walked within a four hour period. I follow the specific instructions given in terms of how often they are fed, given water, treats, their exercise/play routine. And give them lots of pets!
About: Hi there! I’m Shaylee. I love all kinds of animals. I grew up with dogs and bunnies, and took horseback riding lessons as a kid. My family bred several litters of Golden Retrievers, so I’m familiar and comfortable with puppies. I have my own sweet pup, Birdie. She loves to swim, hike and play fetch. I often help out with friends’ pets, and would love to care for others! I’ve cared for reactive dogs in the past, and am open to any additional measures I may need to take to ensure everyone’s comfort. I’m confident in my ability to keep your pet safe and happy. I’m about to begin a grad program at MSU and will have classes Monday and Wednesday through the summer. Other than that, I’m pretty flexible! I know each animal is unique in what they need to be happy and healthy, and I follow all instructions to a T to make sure they get the care they need. I also certainly watch for concerning behavior or symptoms that may indicate illness or distress, and will always check in if I think something’s up. I’ll treat your animal like my own!
“Nina was absolutely amazing! She was able to come over and meet the pups on short notice. Our pups loved her and from the photos, they loved spending time with her. She took AMAZING care of our little rugrats and we could not be more thankful. Highly recommend. We will be calling Nina for anything that has to do with our pups.”
“Taylor was quick to reply to my request. It was on short notice. He was able to come meet Otto the next day. He arrived on time spent time meeting Otto and learning his routine. Taylor provided efficient care with updates for walking and feeding. I would definitely have Taylor again.”
About: I will give your pets all the love and attention they need. I Currently don’t have any pets so yours will be my top priority. Currently a full time college student so I have pretty flexible hours. I can always check in on pets in between classes or in my free time. Willing to do whatever is necessary. If you have any specific requirements for your pets just let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate them to the best of my ability.
“Alanna is the best! I loved getting all the photo updates while I was away. She really knows her way with animals and gave me so much peace that our fur baby got all the love while we were away. She’s definitely our new “go-to”!”
Story cat parents share their Rover experiences
My Clover kitten, my fish, chickens, and houseplants are all in good hands with Paul Louis. He is by far and away the best home + pet sitter I have ever known. He is impeccable with his communication and always goes above and beyond—treating my home and family with the care he would show his own. Thank you once again, Paul Louis!
Jenna was a wonderful sitter for our cats. She made sure to look for our shy cat to make sure he was ok which was very appreciated! She sent us a lot of picture updates and was thorough in her communication. Our cats seemed happy to have her company. Thank you Jenna!!
