“Lucas took great care of my two elderly cats. When we got back from our week away they were healthy and happy. Lucas even noticed that Cindy was scratching our couch and covered it with a blanket.”

“Heather did a great job checking in on my cat. My cat is very timid but even over the 3 days Heather was able to make progress towards getting my cat to be more sociable.”

“David helped us out with a last minute request and was able to help walk our two chocolate labs for a week. He was extremly easy to communicate with and always sent detailed cards with pictures/videos. We couldnt recommend him more!”


“It’s always so difficult to find reliable trusted care for my dogs in my home. From the moment Bre responded to my inquiry, I felt such relief with her professionalism and communication. At the meet and greet, my dogs were in love. It made my travel easier. She took my requests seriously and the dogs were so calm and happy after her visit. Highly recommend Bre.”

“This is our first experience with Rover and certainly not our last. The same is true of Wallis, who was an absolute pleasure to meet and trust with our pets. The time away was out of the country, so confidence in the care plan was important. We were pleasantly surprised to get daily texts from Wallis with brief comments and images of our cats. Call it cat-owner-weirdness, but we could see they were in good spirits and comfortable. More cat-owner-weirdness - checking texts from Wallis while standing in line to view the Sistine Chapel! Thank you, Rover and Wallis!”

“Tony is reliable, follows all directions and provides excellent care. My cats love him. He also sends thorough notes so we know exactly what is going on. I would highly recommend him for drop in cat care.”

“Amy responded immediately to my last minute request to help out with our 3 dogs while we were in town for our son’s wedding and even popped over to our airb&b to meet the dogs that afternoon. She did 3 drop-in visits over the course of two days with great feedback and photos. Thanks to her, we were able to enjoy our son’s wedding worry-free!!!!”

“Ann was great! She left my home very clean and was an excellent communicator. I was very nervous to leave my elderly cat alone for the first time in years, especially since he developed health issues, and Ann did a great job taking care of him. I would definitely recommend.”


“Cassy did a great job caring for our two cats. They seemed very comfortable with her in the pictures she shared. And she kindly dealt with cat mischief (plant pot disaster). Strong recommend.”


“Tracie has watched my pets a handful of times and always does a fantastic job. This time, she was watching them during a huge snowstorm and went above and beyond to make sure my dog and cats were safe and well cared for....even walking to my house in terrible weather and extending her booking when my flight was delayed by two days. I would not hesitate to recommend Tracie. She is very dependable and professional and flexible...and the pets love her (even the one shy cat is starting to come around...)”

“Clareese was so kind and attentive. She took great care of my cat and also kept me informed the whole time I was away. I was not worried at all. She was a perfect fit for our needs, and I definitely will be rebooking her!”

“Yasmeen helped us out with a verrrrrry last minute request - cannot say enough about how great she took care of our cats! Adorable photos and updates, super responsive, and very very kind!”


About: Animals have been part of my life since day one. I grew up with dogs and cats of all personalities! I currently share my home with Kisses, my calico, and Teddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer — one of the highest-energy breeds out there — so if your dog goes a mile a minute, I'm more than ready for it!! Over the years I've dog sat for all sizes and breeds — from tiny lap dogs to large, boisterous pups — and I treat every single one like they're my own. Your pet will be loved, played with, and completely spoiled. My home has a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, zoom, and explore that's perfect for dogs who need to burn off some energy. I'm also comfortable administering medication, so pets with special health needs are absolutely welcome. Your baby will get the same attentive care at my place that they get at home. Whether your pet needs a calm, cozy stay or a high-energy playmate, I've got them covered. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work remotely with a very flexible schedule, which means pet care is never an afterthought. It's woven into my whole day. I'm home the majority of the week, and on the rare occasion I do step out, I'm never gone for more than 3 hours. Your pet will always have someone present, attentive, and ready to play, cuddle, or just keep them company. No long stretches alone, ever. My home is set up thoughtfully for both dogs and cats. The layout is split-level, with cats having full run of the upstairs and dogs enjoying the main floor plus access to the fully fenced backyard — plenty of space to play, explore, and burn energy safely. The two never have to share space unless everyone is comfortable. I do have a resident calico and a German Shorthaired Pointer, both of whom are friendly and social, so I do ask that visiting pets are comfortable around other animals of their kind. I always offer a free meet-and-greet before booking so we can make sure everyone — pets and people — feels good about the stay before any commitment is made. My home is puppy-proofed and high-energy-dog-ready, and I have 24/7 SimpliSafe security monitoring for added peace of mind. You can expect regular photos and updates throughout every stay because you shouldn't have to wonder how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions exactly. Your routines, your rules — meal times, crate preferences, favorite toys, walking routes — I stick to all of it. I respect your home as if it were my own, always clean up after your dog outside, and scoop litter boxes daily. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are the whole point.
“Haley was great, and really eased our mind leaving our special needs older kitty in her hands. She was prompt to respond, sent great updates on every visit, and accommodated all the special requests we had to take care of Luna. And even though she barely saw Ellie I know she was also in good hands (Ellie is our hider). I wouldn't hesitate to book Haley again if we are away and need care for our kitties. We did a meet and greet first and that was very helpful to walk Haley through our needs, let her meet the kitties, and let us get to know her a little. Thanks Haley for caring for our girls!”

“Keilah is a great pet sitter! I have an extremely shy and anxious cat and somehow she got him to come out and play a little and even got a photo of him giving her a kiss! I was shocked! I recommend her for any pet needs and will absolutely be going back to her.”

“Savannah and Silas were great with our two dachshunds! They even took extra time to help the dogs feel more at ease with them. They were also very quick to respond and provide updates. Definitely recommend!”

“Abby, was so great with our Sailor. She has a friendly, confident and warm way with dogs! Sailor loved her right away when they met. I could tell how excellent her caregiving was as he did all his routines great with her-- a walk, bedtime routine, ate his meals, was calm and great when we got home. He is used to us being around and I hadn't left him for an overnight for some years, so it is all the more impressive that he adjusted so quickly to Abby. Also, we loved getting the detailed updates and pictures! We are so happy we were able to have Abby help us for these couple of days and know Sailor will want to have her back! Thanks for taking care with all our little notes about things, Abby! Hope we can have you back soon!”

Swissvale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sari cared for our dear Dalton and Finzel while we went to Erie. She is an outstanding feline caregiver - she plays with the cats, and reads their moods and reactions so well. Her updates are detailed, and knowing she's taking care of my lads always helps me to enjoy my travels. Thank you, Sari!!!

David is reliable, caring, and really great with our (sometimes grumpy) elderly cat. He always goes above and beyond to make sure all is well in our home while we are out of town. I especially appreciate that he always makes sure to find out sometimes difficult to find cat and takes time to make sure he is doing ok.

Claire is super caring & efficient. My one cat, Moe, is usually a super shy dude but he velcroed onto Claire instantly. She sent photo updates from every visit & gave all my babies love while I was gone. I will definitely be booking with her again, great experience!

Kate was wonderful with Monty. We were a little worried about leaving our boy alone without us for the first time but Kate took good care of him. She is responsive and gave us timely updates on Monty’s wellbeing. We would book her again in a heartbeat. We are so grateful to her.

Would definely reccomend Christina as a cat sitter! She was super friendly, had great communication, and came over for a meet and greet. During the whole week she provided very detailed updates and made me feel like my cat was well taken care off. I can tell she really cares!
