“Brenda obviously loves her job and is very good at it. She’s extremely communicative and understanding. She gave my cat his meds and followed his special food instructions, as well as played with him. I would recommend Brenda to anyone!”

About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.
“This was our first time using Rover and Nicole made us so comfortable with the drop in experience. She was on time, provided pics and detailed summary of the visits. Definitely recommend Nicole :)”

“Call was awesome when I needed a Drop-In for my pup on a relatively short notice. She was attentive to his peculiarities, particularly his colder-shoulder to anyone new in the house - which she handled with ease. Trustworthy, kind and reliable, Call is the exact person you’re looking for to take care of your pets. 10/10 will book again. Thanks Call!”

About: I've dog sat for friends and family over the years. Helped dogs while sick during their stay with them. Including taking action with going to the vet. I never allow strangers to pet a dog that is not mine to protect not only the stranger but more importantly the dog. Hi I’m Anna, Margaret is my legal name 😃. I work from home so can take time during lunch to walk your dog and after work. Or if you need me to visit and spend time at your home I can do so with might laptop. As well as helping on the weekend if needed. When having friends pets stay at my home I allow them to feel like it is also theirs. I maintain a clean home where the dog will not stumble upon things they should not eat. I do the same while staying at clients homes. Follow all rules the owner has laid out as well as ask questions for clarification when needed.
“Savannah is an amazing pet sitter. She communicated every day with me, took pictures and she even purchased treats for my cat because I forgot. Thank you Savannah for taking care of my Gorda.”


About: In addition to caring for my own lovely cat and senior pup, I have pet sat for friends and family members regularly for the past 10+ years. I have experience with fur babies with a range of quirks, behaviors, and medical needs, so I am prepared for anything that comes my way. I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend caring for critters, especially during the upcoming summer break! I am very careful and safety-conscious, so you can be sure I will leave your home secure and comfortable for your pets when I visit.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and helping take care of pets for friends and family. My parents have a dog named Sunny who I’ve helped care for, so I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m patient, reliable, and enjoy walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets attention and care based on their individual needs. I treat every pet like family and always make sure to follow routines and instructions carefully. “I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time throughout the week for dog walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I enjoy staying active and love spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine.” currently only offer dog walking and drop-in visits, not overnight pet sitting or in-home boarding. During walks and visits, I focus on making pets feel comfortable, active, and cared for while following any instructions or routines from the owner. I’ve also helped care for my family dog, Sunny, whenever I visit my hometown, so I understand the importance of patience, safety, and giving dogs positive attention and exercise.
About: Hi, I'm Ana! I'm originally from Peru and a proud pet parent to a 8-year-old rescue pup and a sweet 11-year-old cat. I've cared for animals most of my life and deeply understand the love (and quirks!) that come with each one. Whether it's belly rubs, leash training, or just keeping your fur baby company, I treat them with the same patience and love I give my own.

You’ll also get plenty of updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in good hands.

About: Growing up with all sorts of animals since I was a little one, I’ve always understood the imense responsibility that comes with owning pets. Having a few pets myself independently now, I also know how important it is to have a trusted and honest person to look after while you’re away from home! That said, aside from growing up with and caring for my own pets, I have also worked in the veterinary field a few years ago. Thus making me experienced with administering medications if needed, as well as having worked with pets in need of special care and attention. From high energy, to seniors! My availability is fairly flexible, within reason and I am always quick to get back to you asap. Though I can’t take any pets in for boarding due to my landlords policy, I am happy to house sit and send plenty of photos of your pets to check in with you if that’s something you would like. Feel free to ask my any other questions that I may not have answered. And I look forward to hearing from you!

About: Hi! I’m Kate 😊 I’m a gentle and caring animal lover with about 6 years of pet care experience.

Talmadge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jazmin has been great to our 🍊s. Every visit has an update about our cats and what has been done during the visit. The pictures included gave us peace of mind as well that the cats are doing well. Most importantly, I highly recommend Jazmin because not only did she took great care of our cats, she had shown care for our home as well. Highly highly recommend and will book in the future!

Evelyn is an amazing dog sitter and human being! Extremely thorough, great communicator, and very gentle with my dog Charger. Her communication and photos made me feel comfortable on my work trip, which I appreciated so much! I will definitely be using her again!
I’m so sad that I just found Christine and I’m moving in a month. Have been searching for someone as sweet and caring as her for so long. She constantly updated me, and sent the cutest photos. Felt so relieved all week knowing that my little babies were in her hands. Can’t recommend her enough ❤️

We hired Alyssa for our two shy kitties pretty last minute for a two week trip out of the country. She did a phenomenal job keeping us updated with Rover Cards and reaching out if she needed anything, so we could really enjoy our trip. Our normally very shy cats warmed up to her really quickly, so it put us even more at ease. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Miranda is such a caring and compassionate sitter. She always leaves my place in great condition and my cat has never been happier when I’m gone on a trip. I highly recommend her. She also has clear and fast communication skills and provides a ton of information to give you the warm and fuzzy while you’re away. It is obvious that she loves the little fur children.
