“Katie was great with Paprika! My kitty has a spicy personality, but she warmed right up to Katie and really enjoyed getting in her play time. Katie communicated with me daily and gave me in depth updates, notifying me of any changes to our plans and alternative times for drop ins that worked for both of us. Super friendly and kind! Would definitely book with her again.”
“Cat was amazing with our kitty, scout. She popped in while we were away for the holidays and made sure she was loved and cared for in our absence. She kept the litter box tidy and even vacuumed up the mess!”
“I love Emma! She’s watched my two cats twice now and she makes everything so easy. My girls are always so happy when I get home and the house is very tidy. Highly recommend!”
“Renai was amazing! She took wonderful care of my cat and even helped me out with an extra visit on short notice. She sent the best photos and detailed updates after each visit, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. I’m so grateful for her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you so much, Renai!”
“Sophia was a huge help in checking in on my two cats and making sure they were taken care of - she was communicative, punctual, and beyond accommodating! My kitties were fortunate to have her!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I can remember. I was in the 5th grade when my mom surprised us with watching some baby chicks for one weekend to help out one of the teachers at the school she worked at. I was never allowed to have any pets growing up so I was overjoyed. We were taught to handle them carefully and from there I went on to watch dogs, cats, etc. It was a special treat to be able to care for someone’s special companion and then give them back after getting to love on them. I’m currently working part time and have some free time on my hands. My mornings and evenings are flexible. I love animals so why not spend that extra time hanging out with them?! I always acknowledge when I am pet sitting that I am entering into a pet’s safe space. I want to be respectful of the environment and make sure I am being a calming presence and not intruding. I just want the animals to feel comfortable.
About: I have spent my whole life caring for animals: dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, etc. And, I have experience with a variety of ages from geriatric cats to kittens, puppies, and even baby squirrels 🐶 I spend most of my time at home caring for my 3 year old daughter and 2 fur-babies: Tom and Oliver. Tom is an 8 year old miniature schnauzer and Oliver is a 6 year old yorkie-poo. Both love dogs 🐩 Our home has a fenced in backyard with a doggy door for pups to use as they please. They will be supervised at all times and treated like family 🦮
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions who need extra patience and gentle attention. I’m comfortable administering medications and tailoring care to meet each pet’s unique needs. For younger dogs, I provide plenty of exercise, including running and playtime, along with consistent training to encourage good behavior. With every dog, my priority is to offer love, affection, and a safe, happy environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. As a graduate student at SCAD, my schedule is flexible and often takes me out and about in the city, making it easy to accommodate home visits throughout the day. I love walking and exploring, so incorporating pet walks and playtime into my routine feels natural and enjoyable. With plenty of free time in the afternoons, I can provide consistent, reliable care, and spending time with animals is the perfect way for me to unwind and destress between classes. I’m attentive, reliable, and respectful of each client’s home, ensuring pets are cared for in a familiar, comfortable environment. I follow instructions closely, from feeding schedules to specific routines, and pay attention to every detail of a pet’s needs. My calm and caring nature helps animals feel safe while their owners are away, and I keep spaces tidy so everything is just as you left it. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I make sure pets feel loved, secure, and well looked after in their own home.
“Excellent! Great communication and SO great with my two cats. Amanda gave them plenty of love and attention and was a great house sitter! Will definitely book again :)”
About: Hello! I am a SAHM to a little boy born in May 2025, and have spent my life loving on animals, always having pets in the home and taking care of neighbor dogs. My little one will often come with me, as his dad travels for work, but he remains in a carrier during our visits and is used to our three dogs at home. We currently have 3 wonderful rescue doggies ranging in size from 11-100lbs that I love with all my heart and would love to spread some of the care to your sweet pet. I am a brand new mom and have availability to work around my newborn’s schedule. I work part time on Mondays and Tuesdays as a virtual therapist, so those days are sometimes more full to work around. Due to my little one’s schedule, I am not usually available for visits past 7:30pm! I think it is so important to make your pet feel comfortable with me and the environment. I will always take their lead for what they need whether it be space to process a new person, or lots of cuddles and play.
“I contacted Kimberly and immediately received a response. We were able to arrange a date/time for a meet and greet. Upon our meeting, I knew she would be a great sitter for my two pups. While away, she sent me daily texts with picture updates. My pups came home happy and seemed to really enjoy their time with her. We will definitely be using Kimberly again!!!!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life, and couldn’t imagine ever not having an animal. I’ve had some previous experience with pet sitting, including walking, feeding, and providing playtime for neighbors/family members pets. I’m very passionate about the care animals receive, and want to provide the best! I’m currently working in hospitality, but have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week. I am more than willing to make any time work depending on others needs. I walk my own dogs twice a day, with potty breaks and playtime in between. My cats also get plenty of play time as well. I keep a very clean house and environment to ensure the best possible living situation for my animals, and enjoy taking them on walks and adventures as much as possible.
About: Although I do not have a dog of my own, my family and friends do! I offer to watch, check on, and walk their dog(s) whenever they need me to! I’d love to check on your doggie(s), if you give me the chance to!! I’m currently working full time 8am - 5pm Monday through Friday. I’m open to checking in on your pet before work, and after work! & I’m pretty flexible on the weekends! I have a fenced in yard! I do have two cats inside, that I’d be okay with putting away in their “cat room” if the opportunity arises for an inside house sit!

“Charle was quite possibly the sweetest pet sitter I’ve ever had! She was incredibly responsible; I had her stay at my house for a night once and I came back to a perfectly spotless house and an incredibly happy puppy. I’ve reached out to her multiple times since and I always have peace of mind leaving my little buddy with her. And I swear I think my dog likes her more than me now lol”

Thunderbolt cat parents share their Rover experiences
Morgan is absolutely amazing! This is the second time she’s watched my babies, and I couldn’t be more grateful for all the love, attention, and care she shows them. She goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and comfortable, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re in such great hands. The updates and photos she sends are always so sweet, and it’s clear how much she truly cares. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely continue booking with her in the future!
Renai was amazing! She took wonderful care of my cat and even helped me out with an extra visit on short notice.

I’m so grateful for her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you so much, Renai!
Madeline always goes above and beyond to take care of my cat! He’s very playful and social, and needs to get his energy out, and she does just that. She’s also great with communication and letting me know what she did with my cat while she was there and sends tons of pictures! Always reliable and trustworthy. Will hire her again 🙂
Henry helped out on pretty short notice, taking care of my cat, fish and plants. He even saw I was out of litter and correctly inferred there was some in the giant unopened Chewey box I had lying around so he proactively took care of it. Easy to work with thanks Henry!
