Sam was the best! She took great care of our pet, made the whole process very easy for my being new at Rover, and was very detailed and thorough in her communication. Can’t wait to book with Sam again!

From the moment we met Laine, we knew she was the person we needed watching our 3 boys (cats) while we were away for a week. Laine has a very calming, soothing presence and that translated directly to her care while we were away. I left her a list of important info and FYI’s and she went well above and beyond, every single day. She treated our boys as if they were her own and was so communicative with us the entire time. I’m a bit of a nervous cat mom so this was invaluable and put my mind at ease far more than I could have anticipated. She sent amazing pictures and left our space better than even we left it. That’s saying something because our boys are very messy. She earned their trust with patience (along with some treats and catnip) and a special touch. She even let us know when one of our boys had a bit of an issue with diarrhea. Her attention to detail is second to none. I’m so grateful to have found her here, she truly cares about animals and gave us peace of mind that our boys were in the best hands possible. I truly believe that’s something money can’t buy! Laine is simply incredible, I’ll spend a long time trying to find the right words to thank her. We can’t wait to book her again for our trips!

Alexandria is wonderful. I totally recommend her. She accepted my request last minute and was patient with me as a new user to Rover. Our dog Hattie took to her right away. I immediately felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. Our dog can be stubborn and difficult in some situations but Alexandria handled her with confidence and lots of kindness and love!

About: I have a dog of my own at home and also lived with a dog in my college apartment! I have no issues playing with energetic dogs or hanging out and chilling too! I have worked extensively with my friend who is in vet school with her cats and her foster dogs and feel comfortable in many situations. I will spoil your babies rotten!! I attend RWU Law School during the week but have light days Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and can come to relieve pets or hang out for a little! I have plenty of homework to do and can do that while snuggling with your pet! I am free most weekends as well. I work very hard to create a good relationship with the family of the dog as well as the dog themselves. Everything is up to the family and whatever they are comfortable with. I am comfortable with staying over, bringing the dog out for walks or a drive or coming over to feed the dog and give them lots of love!

About: I'm a dog lover. I am back in New England after 10 years away and have reactivated my Rover account. At 14 years old, my sweet Boston Terrier died in 2023. While I no longer have my own dog, I work from home and am happy for the opportunity to care for yours. :-) Because I work from home, your dog is sure to receive extra love and attention. Your dog is a family member - I get it - and while you're away, you can be assured he/she is receiving care, companionship, and a comfortable safe place to play and lounge. Separation anxiety is real for dog owners too! ;-) To ease your mind, I'm happy to send pictures so you can see updates on your pup, happy and cared for. I want you to have peace of mind. My schedule is rather flexible. Your pet will have company and care as needed throughout the day. It's my pleasure to have their company as well. I live in a lovely waterside neighborhood -- a great place for long walks. Space for a crate and dog bed for your pup to feel at home.

Emma was super friendly and communicative. We unfortunately had to cancel our rover visit last minute though she made the effort to come over ahead of time to meet our cat and take notes on what she needed. We definitely look forward to utilizing her services in the future!

Audrey was wonderful with our dog! She helped us with drop-in visits and an overnight stay. Audrey was communicative, flexible, and our dog clearly felt very comfortable with her based on the meet and greet and photos we received while away. We will definitely reach out to Audrey again in the future!

About: I’ve been around pets since childhood - having 2 cats, hamsters, birds and fish. I am a dog mom to a 15 year old beagle and 12 year old pittie mix both of who I adopted when they were 3 years and the other 9 months old. I walked and was also a house visitor for neighbors dogs all throughout middle school. Wherever I was there was a high possibility I was hanging out with someone’s dog. I work a Monday to Friday position but would love to spend my off hours from the office position doing house check ins and or walks for your pets. I would be able to do house check ins for bathroom breaks-feeding-loving attention-playtime as well as bringing them on walks. I am able to handle big or small & high or low energy pets.

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for dogs and believe every one of them deserves patient, loving care. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and understood. Whether your dog is playful, shy, young, or older, I’ll treat them with real care and attention. No matter the age, all dogs are puppies to me! I am new to this, but I will make pet care a consistent part of my routine and plan my schedule carefully so your loved one gets the time and attention they need. I’m reliable with check-ins, feedings, playtime, cleaning, walks, and keeping pets company. I promise to do my best to be flexible and, more importantly, communicate clearly so owners always know their pets are being cared for. Will send cute pics for reassurance! :D I have always created a calm, safe, and clean environment for every pet in my care. I follow feeding instructions closely, respect each pet’s routine, and pay attention to their comfort, behavior, and boundaries. In a client’s home, I make sure to be respectful and dependable, and keep things tidy while giving their pet patient attentive care. Have only helped family but when I love another's pet to me they also become family. <3

I was worried about leaving my cat for two weeks, especially because he needs more attention than the average cat. Caroline took such good care of him and spent time with him on each of her visits. I’m sure he appreciated the extra attention. :) It was such a relief to have her looking out for him and the house. I really can’t thank her enough and I plan to hire her for future visits. Highly recommend!

About: I am a certified Veterinary Assistant and have my Associates degree in Animal Science. I have worked with animals on and off for 15 years and have owned and cared for cats and dogs my entire life. ~I work in all weather conditions so long as I can travel safely ~I am comfortable with all dog breeds as well as: Cats, reptiles, amphibians, birds, other small animals, chickens, goats, horses, fish, and more!! Just ask! I am an active person so I will enjoy walking and playing with your animals and I don't mind necessary farm chores or clean up duty. I care for each animal as if it’s my own and that includes notifying you if I feel there are any health or safety concerns for your animals that need to be addressed. As a trained, educated, and certified animal professional I have an obligation to the animal first. I am a full-time mom and part-time animal care professional. I am currently available Monday through Friday 8am-2pm with some flexibility after 2pm and weekends. Who best to know how to care for your animal than you! That's why I require an initial meet and greet with you and your animal(s) to allow me to see and hear how you interact with your animal, commands they know, signals, their leash training, temperament, etc. Also, it allows the animal a chance to meet me with you (their safe person) around. I will also send you a short form to fill out with necessary details like care instructions, emergency contacts, vet and immunization information, etc.

About: I have four years of companion animal knowledge under my belt and two years as a veterinary technician and kennel attendant! Through schooling, I have learned proper care and treatment of our pets, grooming, dog walking/training, etc. Additionally, working in the veterinary medicine field has taught me more along the lines of medications, care for sick pets, nutritional needs, and much more. I have two of my dogs at home whom I implement my skills with on a daily. I am currently working part-time at a veterinary hospital. With that being said, I have a lot of free time to distribute pet care, including most weekday evenings and all day during the weekend. In my own home, I feed my dogs twice daily on a specific schedule and have play time outside throughout the day in our fenced-in backyard. During warmer weather, we typically go on walks and keep on moving so that there is no room for boredom or destruction inside my home. I try to be as interactive as possible with pets while still having time to settle down with toys alone.

About: I've always had dog(s) and cat(s) around me since I was a little girl. I've seen all types of dogs and cats, hyper cats, lazy dogs, and both that think that they're just another human on the couch. In my experience in dealing with all these personalities I've noticed one trait that is essential in animal -care, patience. Patience is something that is key when dealing with any animal or even any person. A little bit about me... I just moved to North Carolina with my family. I am eager to start college again, along with pet sitting and house cleaning. I enjoy spending time with my four cats in my down time. Animals are my favorite type of people to be around. I say they are people because they are some of the most compassionate beings on earth. I currently go to school online. So, I will have ample amount of time for your fur baby. I can easily adapt to their schedule and needs. I have an acre of land that is not currently fenced. My home consists of four cats, two sons, myself and my husband. I can happily provide drop-in care in the evenings unless I have daytime availability open in my schedule. On the weekends I have more daytime availability. Caring for your cat or dog is something I look forward to. I love when you are able to provide ample amount of information and communication. And no, I don’t think you’re being crazy about the furry member of your family. 😊

We absolutely loved Amanda! She was super responsive and did a great job with our babies. She did a meet and greet to go over everything and asked very appropriate questions. She had to administer pills to one of our dogs and followed the instructions perfectly. The dogs took to her immediately. We will definitely book her again for our next trip.

Cassidy was great taking care of our little boy rook. You got constant updates with photos and he appeared to be having time of his life playing ball outside like we usually do. She gave us updates on everything you did by a phone message along with all the pictures and the videos that she sent. We had never left a little boy alone before because he always came with us and we were always concerned about leaving him with somebody else without us. Definitely have good faith in Rover right now and will you be using them again. Have another upcoming trip planned and you should be able to stay at our house taking care of rook for in about 2 to 3 days.
