9. Margarita D.
“As long as I've known Rita – which is over 20 years now – one thing has always been clear: she has a deep and genuine love for animals. Rita doesn't just care for their physical needs; she is equally attentive to their EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING. Her nurturing nature, patience, and attention to detail makes her someone I wholeheartedly trust with my pets. When I first brought home my kitten, Stella, she was a nervous and shy kitten, and unfortunately I had to take a week long trip not long after I got her. RITA CAME TO MY AID, and watched Stella while I was gone, which I know was not easy because of how young and nervous Stella still was. But when I got back, Stella was an entirely different cat; she broke out of her shell and was social and playful, and totally affectionate. It was clear that Rita had spent quality time with Stella, and nurtured her with attention and positive engagement. I COULDN'T RECOMMEND RITA ENOUGH; whether it's dogs, cats, or both, she is an experienced care taker that has the KNOWLEDGE, LOVE, AND DESIRE to be there for your pets when you can't be.”


10. Marissa A.
“Marissa has done such an amazing job with my dog gunnar! I trust her 100% to give him the best love and care for my fur baby. Gunnar has quite the history, gunnar is a cuddle lover, food motivated and attention loving yellow lab who also has epilepsy. He is on a special medication schedule not only for his epilepsy but also for his joints. Marissa has never let gunnar or I down when it has come to his care or abundance of love needed. If you have the opportunity to have Marissa on rover, jump on it because you and your furry friend will not be disappointed!”


11. Anne B.


“First time leaving our dogs alone since we moved to the area. Anne was very good about giving me updates on my babies and making sure they were well taken care of! :)”


12. Kelsey P.


“Kelsey was wonderful with my cat, Luna! I left for 6 days and Kelsey was great about coming around the same time, spending quality time with Luna during her visit and even went above and beyond by bringing in my trash can and stopping a beeping fire alarm! I would definitely book with Kelsey again. She sent lots of photos and gave me updates each day!”


13. Briana P.
About: I've been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a home filled with all types of pets, I developed a deep love and understanding of their unique needs. My family and I provided both foster and forever homes for many animals, which gave me hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and situations. This lifelong connection to pets has given me the skills and compassion to provide exceptional care, ensuring that your furry friend will feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I currently work Monday through Friday, so I will have plenty of time to play with your fur babies during the evenings and on weekends! When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize their comfort and routine to minimize any stress. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and specific dietary needs to administering medication if required. I provide plenty of playtime, mental stimulation, and affection to ensure they feel safe and loved in your absence. I also maintain a clean and tidy environment, respecting your home as if it were my own. My goal is to create a calm, happy experience for your pet so you can have peace of mind while you're away


14. John H.
“John has been a great and consistently reliable caregiver for our 2 dogs (and cat). Having him around has been a great relief for our family in some difficult situations, he is experienced and capable even in stressful circumstances. He is kind, friendly, communicative, and most importantly our dogs really love him! They are excited to see him every time.”


15. Marielle F.

“Marielle was fantastic with my pups. She was great with making sure to be there around the same times. The dogs warmed up to her very quickly. Lots of pictures and updates. Will 100% book her again!!”




16. Petrina B.
“In the 19 years that I have know Petrina she has been a responsible and caring pet owner. Her concern for the health and happiness of her pets is that same as that of a parent with a child. She has gone to great lengths to ensure that her dogs are well cared for. She has always talked to her dogs and included them in her activities where applicable. They are an active part of her life, rather than an afterthought. I personally have entrusted my pets to her care when I have been away. I highly recommend Petrina as an excellent caretaker.”




17. Heather H.

“I booked Heather on short notice and she did really well with my dog”


18. Ashley E.
“Ashley has done drop in visits for me and Heidi a few times now. She was gracious enough to come over for an initial meet and greet. Since then she’s been very responsive and flexible with my irregular schedule. Would recommend!”


19. Megan Z.

“Megan was great for our two dogs! She was so detailed with her visits and sent us lots of pictures (mostly of our dogs lounging on the couch, because that's what they love to do!) She made us feel so comfortable knowing our dogs were being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her!”

About: I have taken care of neighbors’ pets many times to brush, feed, scoop, etc and we have 4 cats of our own!
