“Katie was great! She checked on our 2 senior cats while we were away. She gave us daily updates and pictures of them each day. It was nice knowing that someone was checking in on them so we didn’t have to worry about them.”


“Julie is amazing! Another trip taken knowing our sweet boy was in good hands. A trip with two littles is fun with a touch of hectic but Julie’s wonderful, descriptive updates full of adorable pictures keep me so relieved that our Buzzy (our cute, old man kitty) is all good getting spoiled back home! Our sweet boy needs nightly meds. If you are in need for someone to take care of your sweet baby with any med needs, she’s your girl! Thankful we have her as our trusted sitter!”


“Julie was exceptional! She loved my kitties like I would have. She kept me updated daily with how they were and sent pictures. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again in the future!”


“Lea and Brandon took care of our pup as if she were their own! Our girl is going to miss seeing them every day! They were timely and attentive and mostly importantly, gave our pup the love and attention she needed while we were on holiday! We will absolutely be using Lea and Brandon in the future!!”

About: I have had pets my whole life: dogs, cats, hamsters, and a fish. Pets are special in so many ways and deserve the up most care. I do not know/experienced administrating medication in dogs/cats. I have taken care of an elderly cat and dog before though. I understand pets are precious and intend to care for them as my own. I am and undergrad college student who is coming home for the summer. I come home 2 week of May. I am using Rover as a side job to make some extra money while doing something that I love. My schedule is pretty flexible throughout the week.I can come early mornings before I go to work, or late at nights after. I can also make time in the middle of the day if that is what you need. At home I have two cats - Mila and Nila - so I do not intend on bringing home any pets. But, being at someone else’s home to me means that you treat the pets like your own and the house with respect.

About: I ran a pet sitting company for 10 years and have cared for just about every kind of animal—from playful puppies to senior pets needing meds, and even fish and smalle animals as well as larger ones.

About: I’m a lifelong pet lover with a deep passion for animals and a patient, caring approach that puts pets at ease. No matter the weather—rain, shine, or snow—I’m dedicated to giving your dog a refreshing walk, plenty of exercise, and lots of love. Having grown up with dogs, I know firsthand how much they mean to you as part of your family. That’s why I treat every pet with the respect, care, and affection they deserve. I’ve often been told by pet parents that their “grumpy” dog warmed up to me right away—I just have a way with animals! I especially adore Beagles, Collies, Golden Retrievers, Labs, Corgis, and Dachshunds, but every pup is special to me, regardless of breed. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and give them the attention they need while you’re away! Hi there! I am available from 4pm-7pm Monday-Thursday, Saturday: I’m open, Sunday: morning to 4pm. I do not have availability on Friday, I apologize in advance. If you’re new to Rover, enjoy a 20% discount with my code: LAUREM51462 With my own pet, I focus on creating a trusting, loving environment where they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. I make sure to meet all their daily needs, from nutritious food to playtime and regular vet visits, and give them the attention and affection they deserve. When I care for others’ pets, I bring the same level of dedication and warmth. I aim to make each pet feel as comfortable with me as they do with their own family. Whether it’s following their daily routines, giving them plenty of love and attention, or just being patient with their unique personalities, my goal is to build that same trusting bond and provide a safe, loving environment.

About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ve personally raised and cared for animals of all ages, from rambunctious puppies and curious kittens to calm and loving senior pets and I’ve seen several of my own pets through their full life spans. This has given me deep experience in providing age-appropriate care, whether that means extra playtime and training for younger pets or gentle attention and medication support for seniors. I’m comfortable and experienced with most dog and cat breeds, from small lap dogs to large, energetic pups, and from independent cats to cuddly companions. I know that every animal has a unique personality and needs, and I take pride in getting to know each one individually to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I work from home full time. That means your pet will never be left alone for long periods and will get consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a calm environment, lots of affection, structured routine, or just someone to hang out with, I’m here to provide that kind of care in a homey, stress-free setting. I genuinely treat every animal I care for like family, and that means tons of love, playtime, cuddles, and comfort while you're away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. Since I work from home full-time, my schedule is very flexible, and I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent care and companionship. I build my day around the pets I’m caring for, whether that means morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or cuddle breaks in between work tasks. I love having animals around; they bring joy, routine, and energy to my day. I have a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time, fresh air, and play. My home is pet-friendly and full of love my kids adore animals and enjoy helping care for them, offering even more companionship for your pet while they’re here. We also have a sweet 3-year-old dog named Storm, who’s been around both dogs and cats her whole life. She’s laid-back, friendly, and used to having furry friends around. Because I don’t have to commute or leave the house for long periods, I’m able to give pets my full attention and adjust to their individual needs, including potty breaks, medications, or just some quiet time if they’re more relaxed. On weekends, I enjoy taking dogs on longer walks or play sessions in the yard or at nearby pet-friendly parks (with your permission, of course). Caring for pets isn’t just something I squeeze into my schedule, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. When pets stay in my home, I do everything I can to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they would at home. I start by learning about their routine, habits, and preferences so I can maintain consistency with feeding, potty breaks, sleep, and play. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to run in the yard or prefers to nap in a quiet corner, I adjust my care to meet their individual needs. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air. Inside, pets have free roam of the main living areas, unless you prefer otherwise. I offer plenty of one-on-one attention, including playtime, snuggles, and positive reinforcement. For pets that need a crate, I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep their routine consistent. I work from home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. I also have a friendly dog named Storm who’s used to being around both dogs and cats. Cleanliness, safety, and affection are my top priorities. I make sure pets always have access to clean water, follow any dietary or medical needs, and create a calm, welcoming environment where they can feel right at home.

“Chayanne was great. She was flexible, able to meet me at the last minute and take the job. She was there everyday on the day/time I requested and stayed for 30 minutes giving my cat lexi some much needed company and sending me pictures of her. Highly recommended.”
