Jen has watched our cats a couple of times now, and we trust her completely. Even for quick drop-in visits, she’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Each of our cats has a different personality, and Jen is attentive to all of them making sure everyone is fed, safe, and getting individual attention. We came home to relaxed, well cared for cats and a clean space, which says everything. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!

About: Hello! I’m Olivia. I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with family dogs starting when I was in kindergarten. In the summer 2023, I adopted my own cat, which made me appreciate even more how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. I work part-time and am a college student, however I can always make time for lovely animals! Even with a busier schedule, I am still able to: * Overnight pet and house sit * Walk your dogs * Daily drop-in visits/check-ins * Keep up with feeding routines and fresh water * Litter box cleaning and basic cleanup * Give lots of attention, playtime, and companionship I am willing to discuss and bargain on prices, and we can discuss my availability further as well! Don’t be shy to message and let me know what you’re looking for. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I try to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to what they need. I also know how important communication is for pet parents, so I’m always happy to send updates and photos while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!

Chloe earned and deserves the highest star rating for her responsible, diligent, punctual and professional animal care. It's evident Chloe loves animals and took very good care of our 3 cats. I believe once you've experienced the high level of care Chloe provides, she will be your animal care professional for life.

About: Hi y’all! My name is Valeria :) I have 4+ years of dog walking, and pet caretaking. I started a small dog walking business 4 years ago, but only for family and friends. I am currently a veterinary technician, and have 1 dog of my own; Barry! Though he’s a small chihuahua/italian greyhound, he definitely acts like the opposite! I can care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, though I am small. I also am able to administer any medications needed, for senior dogs, adult dogs, and even puppies :). Please feel free to reach out, and thank you so much for reading this ⭐️ I’m currently working part-time, but I also am a student. I am available most weekdays in the afternoon for walks, and always take my clients for longer walks any time on Sundays! :) I do live in an apartment, but my balcony is closed off at all times. The potty area is just next to the stairs leading up to my apartment, so it won’t be a whole hike to go potty :)

About: My husband and I are having a 2yo Border Collie now. From daily walks and play sessions to overnight stays, I ensure each pet receives personalized attention and affection. Whether it’s administering medication, following dietary preferences, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every pet in my care. We are work from home.So we have plenty time to be with your fur baby! We walk the dogs 3-4 times a day for 15-20mins and they will have 30-60mins park time everyday. I have one friendly border collie boy to accompany your fur baby! He is very playful and friendly with dogs and cats. We have a big back yard that ensure your fur baby has enough play time can allow them to potty anytime.

About: I have provided care to senior cats since I was in high school, and the owners invited me back for years to feed them, clean up after them, and give them medicine. I have also owned pets since I was a child and am no stranger to messes or overly energetic pets. I trained my own dog when she was a puppy and was the most successful in getting her to learn basic commands and simple tricks. I have also taken care of plants and general house maintenance. I currently work from 8AM to 4:30PM, Tuesday through Saturday, and am otherwise completely free and happy to take care of pets, plants, houses, and more. I am clean, timely, and consistent, and have had ten years of experience tending to pets that were not my own. I am attentive to instructions given by the owner and the needs of the pets in question. I care immensely about their wellbeing and am focused on making everyone's experience pleasant!

He’s reliable, attentive, and very thoughtful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog walker!

About: I am new to Rover but I have been pet sitting for friends and through word of mouth for the last five years! It is always a joy for me! I am currently working part time so I have a lot of time to help others with pet care. I can travel to you and I can stay over night. I am able to stay with your pet and keep them company over night or just for a visit. I’m used to caring for dogs and cats!

About: Our own furbabies are reactive so I definitely know the struggles of finding someone who understands! I’ve learned a lot of knowledge from our trainer and am very detail oriented/structured when it comes to providing care! I currently work full time but am looking for another source of income when I am free! I am a teacher so I have breaks off when the children do, and have plenty of weekends off as well for date nights, vacations, etc! I only provide pet care in clients home, as boarding in my own home would cause stress to our reactive dogs. Open to learning and sticking to your schedule as much as possible so your furbaby doesn’t experience too much of a drastic change without you there!

Jill was wonderful. She was so patient with my shy cats and made sure they ate! She also cleaned up after them when they were messy. I really appreciated all the great photos. This was the first time my cats and I had a non family member take care of the cats, and Jill took care of my anxiety as well as my cats’ needs.

Jinhao was a pleasure to work with! He is very easy to communicate with and very responsive, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. He arrived right on time and it’s obvious he has a lot of experience and a genuine love for animals. My cat Sumo took to him almost immediately! Jinhao took care of all the essentials: feeding, fresh water, and scooping the litter, and also spent quality time playing with Sumo. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future.

Mila is very sweet, punctual, and flexible to work with. My cats went straight to her during our meet-and-greet, which I had never seen them do with a stranger before. She is a great communicator and took tons of pictures and videos during her visits. My older cat has a history of UTIs, and my other cat occasionally has loose stools, so Mila carefully reported the quality of their pee and poop in the litter box each time. When the weather was warm, she made sure the temperature in the house was comfortable. She has great attention to detail, and my cats love her! Highly recommended!

Excellent, highly recommended. We have just returned home and found our cats to be well taken care of by Myat. She was very detailed, thorough in her communication and followed all the instructions during her drop in visits. We have 3 cats and one of them has anxiety issues and leading to accidents. No issues indicating they bonded well with Myat. Definitely asking for her services next time.

This is the second time we’ve used Raeyna but the first time we’ve left our cats for more than a couple days. I am admittedly a crazy cat mom and was a bit nervous. Raeyna did a great job responding to my texts promptly and sent me pictures of both cats which helped put me at ease. This was greatly appreciated since one of my cats is fearful of strangers. Raeyna eventually earned her trust and even played with her! Everything was in order when we returned and our kitties came to greet us immediately. Thank you for taking good care of our kitties and putting up with an anxious cat mom!
