“Trisha was the best! My pet kitten was quick to warm up and was completely taken care of from the litter clean up to playing with her twice a day. Eevee misses her already ❤️”

“Megan and her family provided exceptional care for Ollie, ensuring he was treated as one of their own. If you are feeling anxious about leaving your pets, rest assured that they are in good hands. I was in a bind and they came through for me. Thank you very much! I will use services again. 😇”

About: I have been taking care of many animals all my life. I have taken care of pretty much every pet you can think of from pigeons, cats, dogs, lizards, bunnies, all, and all the way to horses and cows. Needless to say I have a lot of experience and would love to help out in anyway I can! I am a member of the United States Coast Guard, and have a pretty set schedule Monday through Thursday. I am able to do mornings before nine and afternoons after two. I will not be able to take animals back to my place unfortunately seeing as my apartment has strict rules against animals being in my apartment complex complex
About: I’ve taken care of my dog baby for 10 years while also taking care of friends/families dogs before him and all along the way. I absolutely love dogs and cats and I’m also active so I’m always down to go for a walk! I am a nurse who works 3 days a week. I will update my schedule as far in advance as I can! I’m a travel nurse and I love to walk on my days off! I love dogs and I am a firm believer that a good walk each day is so beneficial to both pets and people!! I think I am very reasonable and I’m willing to work together on rates and come to an agreement with extended/recurrent clients! I care for other’s fur babies the same way I care for other my own fur babies. I am caring and gentle with all animals and make sure they feel loved whenever their pawrents are away.
About: I used to have 27 cats and 2 dogs in my apartment. Many of them are picked up from the street or sick. After I work with the pet doctor, I training them, and help the autism and mental disabled people and seniors people. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available on weekends and weeks day. My apartment has no other pet right now! And All the animals like me, and I have so many years experience with pet. I can easily get along with good relationships with your pets.
“Mary Beth is truly the best!! Our cats warmed up to her quickly and she took great care of them while we were out out town. We are so happy we found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Shannon was so sweet and able to take my cat last minute for an overnight stay. My cat felt very comfortable and immediately acclimated to her home. She sent photo updates and responded quickly! I’d definitely book again.”

“Jelena was awesome. Couldn’t ask for more. She was flexible and responded quickly. She communicated thoroughly and efficiently. She showed up at the times scheduled and followed instructions, sent pics, and communicated before, during, and after her visits. I was very nervous using a stranger who had never met our dog before. Usually I try to arrange meet and greets. He has only been cared for by family and is big, intimidating looking, and can be a little quirky sometimes. But I was in a jam at the last minute so I found Jelena. So glad I did! She was great at greeting him and understanding how to interact with his size, breed, needs, and temperament. Jelena was conscientious and thoughtful with how she left our dog and our home after her visit. Look forward to having her return!”

“I cannot say enough about Heather. She is truly incredible and must be a cat whisperer!!! I think Bronson loves her more than me!!!! He has never been so accepting of a new (or even long time) friend. He usually hides under the bed or closet for everyone, but Heather was so patient, and was somehow able to get him to come out from hiding. He let her brush him and they spent time together playing. She also sent a bunch of adorable pictures and updates with each visit. We were able to relax and didn’t worry about Bronson one bit, knowing he was in excellent hands. I hope Heather is always available to do check In visits for us when we are away. ♥️”

“I would highly recommend Alisa and wouldn’t hesistate rebooking her services. She was communicative and easy to work with. She took great care of our pets and sent photo updates to us which reassured our smallest members of the family were well taken care of. Thanks Alisa!”

“Zeni was fantastic and I will definitely be using her again. Always on time and even took notice of outdoor water fountain that needed water while we were away. Absolutely a great connection...”
“Sofia was an excellent pet sitter. I was traveling for 3 weeks out of the country and Sofia dropped by every other day and took car of my multiple cats. The cats are a handful and one required medication and Sofia did a great job. She fed and watered them as well as cleaned their litter boxes. Three of the cats hide in my sofa and she aways looked in it to make sure the three shy cats were there and ok. She also proved updates and pictures of the various cats which I enjoyed looking at from across the world during my vacation. I would highly recommend Sofia for any of your pet sitting needs.”

“Natasja was a great pet sitter! My cat seemed to like her at first sight and felt very comfortable. She was fed really well and Natasja spent a lot of time with her so she was very happy too. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve grown up with big dogs so I understand the importance of making sure they’re getting exercised to stay happy and healthy! Aside from big dogs in the house I’ve also had cats, so have experience taking care of cats as well. My schedule is pretty laid back, I’m in school but all online and currently not working at the moment. So my schedule is nice and flexible! Making sure pets are happy and healthy, while receiving lots of attention. Whether that’s taking the dog on a walk or laying on the couch petting the cat, they deserve to be happy and loved!
About: Hello Rover friends, I am officially a Rover sitter. To all who know me the animal kingdom has been my world ever since I was a little girl. I guarantee your pet will have a forever friend and unconditional love. They are always priority when they are with me. What truly sets me apart is the depth of my hands-on experience and dedication to animal welfare. For over 30 years, I’ve been actively involved with rescue organizations—fostering dogs, volunteering at adoption events, and conducting home inspections to ensure safe placements. I also work closely with shelters to evaluate a dog’s behavior and temperament, helping rescues understand which environments each dog will thrive in. One of the most rewarding experiences of my life was raising orphaned newborn puppies—feeding them around the clock, keeping them warm, and nurturing them into strong, healthy companions. That level of care, patience, and love is something I bring to every animal I look after. I specialize in: • 🍼 Newborn & orphaned puppy care • 🐾 Puppy training support * Animal CPR • 🐶 Senior pet care • 🐕 Rescue & trauma-informed handling • 💊 Medication administration (oral/topical) • 🐈 Cat care & companionship • 🐴 Comfortable around horses • 🏠 Multi-pet household management • 📋 Shelter temperament assessments & home checks Every pet has a story, and I’m here to be the calm, loving chapter when you can’t be there. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s what I truly love to do! I structure my days around the animals I care for, whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I have dedicated my life volunteering in Animal Welfare. I like to consider myself as the neighborhood dog whisper. There hasn't been a dog that I cant handle. With my flexible schedule and home-based work, I’m able to be fully available for your pet’s needs throughout the day and night. I’m available weekdays and weekends, including holidays, and I can accommodate a wide range of routines—whether your pet is high-energy and active or needs calm, consistent care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family and ensure they’re comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way. In your home, I respect your space and routines. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication schedules, and provide updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. I also understand how to read animal behavior, especially in rescue or sensitive pets, so I approach every situation calmly and with care. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, pet-friendly environment. I keep a clean, safe space with no hazards or stressors, and I always monitor interactions closely. I never leave pets unattended outside, and I make sure each animal has their own space to rest, relax, and feel at home. With over 30 years of hands-on experience—including rescue fostering, behavior assessments, and newborn puppy care—I provide a loving, trustworthy, and safe experience every time.

“This was my first time using Rover and needed someone to check on my cat while I had to leave for the day. Monique was friendly, easy to communicate with and kept me updated the whole time. You can tell she really cares about animals and enjoys helping people with their pets. I knew my cat was in good hands and I will definitely be rebooking with her for future trips. Thanks Monique!”

Jadyn was professional, trustworthy, and communicative. When my cat first met her, he warmed up to her immediately, and I felt comfortable during the time I was away. Jadyn sent me daily updates and pictures which let me know he was well cared for, and put my mind at ease.

We booked Faith for 3 at-home visits and she was GREAT! Our cat loved spending time with her from day 1. She is trustworthy and is good at sending detailed notes, videos, and updates. I was truly surprised to see Moonie so comfortable and loving towards, her right away. She definitely has an inviting and loving energy that Moonie immediately felt. We will definitely reach out to her when we leave town again. Thank you, Faith!
