“June was very flexible with scheduling and it was clear she loves animals. Kenai adored her. I was given daily updates and photos. She was wonderful, I would book with her again!”

About: New on Rover but I am a seasoned pet sitter. 🐾 I am experienced in caring for a diverse range of pets. I am known for my calming demeanor, which is particularly beneficial for pets that exhibit anxiety or shyness. I too have anxiety, but when I am with animals they make it all better ☺️. That is why this job is perfect for me! I do have experience with puppies and kittens and senior dogs and cats. I can administer medications and feed them any special diets. I can feed and water your reptiles, birds, fish, amphibians, and other pets. Pet care is my full time job. I have my own cat at home so I do go home to check in on her if I am house sitting for the week. I am attentive to your pets needs and behavior. If they are shy or have anxiety I will give them the proper space and time to adjust to me. I am respectful of your home and your beloved pets.

“Alex was wonderful while caring for our senior dog in our home. Our dog was in good spirits and we received a lovely daily photo while we were away. She brought in packages and left our home in wonderful condition. We’d happily book Alex again!”


“I have only one word for Michelle‘s services. Exceptional. She did everything we asked her to do which included keeping the outdoor plants alive, keeping the outdoor fish alive, getting our mail, taking out the trash, and keeping the Jacuzzi in good shape. Oh yes, and she sent many pictures of our two energetic dogs livin’ the good life. Well done, Michelle. Please come back.”


About: I love animals and have been around and cared for them all of my life. I have three dogs of my own and live on a 50 acre farm. The back area is fenced, 1/2 acre. I do work during the day so my husband cares for our Rover pets while I am gone. All dogs love him and he is home during the day. I am a very experienced horse owner and can provide care for livestock as well as cats, dogs and birds. I raise Andalusian horses and have been around them most of my Life. Pets are my passion, are important and I love to be around them. They make me happy and I would love to pamper your pets! For house sitting clients, I do work from 6-2pm. I am happy to house sit but am gone during those hours. My husband lets the dogs out as needed all day long. He is home all of the time, so we do not leave our boarders alone. Our clients pets interact with our own pets. We cannot take in pets that do not get along with other dogs and cats. Our boarders will sleep with us or on their own bed if one is brought.

“AAAAA++++ If you need an amazing, responsible, tuned in house/pet sitter look no further. We are incredibly grateful that Pam could fit us in her schedule and on short notice. She went above and beyond to make sure our scared cat (who hides from new people), got food in her system while we were away. She sent regular updates and pictures that put us at ease. Our pets were so comfortable in her presence they looked for her when we got home. Our cats are older, grumpy and have various diets and important asthma medications -we appreciate her attention to detail so our pets could get what they needed following our similar routines. The house was cleaner than we left it, plants watered and happy kitties. We will definitely be using Pam again for a stress free vacation.”


“Erica was so great to work with. She was super flexible to pick Elote up from our wedding location and took amazing care of her. 10/10 recommend her for anyone in looking for pet care. Thank you!!!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—growing up with cats, rabbits, hamsters, chicks, and ducks. Since 2018, I’ve raised a leash-reactive rescue dog, working through behavior training, crate training, and potty training. He’s now a well-adjusted senior, and I’ve developed a deep understanding of pet behavior, patience, and compassionate care. I’m currently pursuing my nursing degree and seeking part-time work. I’m flexible throughout the week, with availability after 4pm on Saturdays. Reliable and consistent. I’m committed to providing dependable care that fits your pet’s routine and needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every pet care situation. While I prefer to care for pets in their own home to maintain their routine and reduce stress, I’m also able to welcome them into mine if needed. I have a securely fenced yard, a calm and friendly senior dog, and a clean, pet-friendly space where your fur baby will feel safe and loved. My goal is always to provide a nurturing environment that supports your pet’s well-being, whether in your home or mine.

“Anjilee was really great and communicated well while watching my dog and cat over the 4th of July weekend! She was very responsive and provided lots of picture updates. Both my dog and cat were very happy during their time with her and I would definitely recommend her services!”


“An outstanding petsitter! We left for a few weeks and she made sure all our animals were well cared for every day. One of our cats even had an emergency and she went above and beyond by getting him to the vet and sacrificing a ton of time to ensure that he was ok. 10/10 strongly recommended !”


“Jane was great with our pets. Both of them warmed up to her quickly which gave us peace of mind. She communicated wonderfully and sent pics. We came home to happy pets and a tidy house. Thank you so much Jane!”


“Megan was amazing with our two dogs, Fizzgig and Barley! She was always giving us updates and sending photos. We came home to a very clean home, thanks to Megan. She was very respectful of the house and treated it like it was her own. I would highly recommend Megan and will for sure re-book her.”


“Wes was great with all three of my dogs. He did a meet and greet prior to staying with them. He is caring and has compassion for the dogs. They felt at home with him and even my timid pup warmed up to him quickly. He gave my older pup his pain medicine. He’s great with young and old dogs. He reached out quickly when one of my dogs was acting ill. He left my home in excellent condition as well. Thank you, Wes, for caring for my pups when I had to be away for work.”


“It’s always difficult to enjoy a vacation when my dog has to stay behind. I don’t know whose separation anxiety is worse, the dogs or mine. It’s also stressful to have someone stay in your home that you don’t know. Emma is an excellent communicator, respectful with regards to our home and pets were well cared for. She would send me a picture and update daily on how my dog was doing which definitely put me at ease and I could actually enjoy my time away. I would highly recommend Emma. I plan to reach out to her again the next time we are away. Thank you Emma!”

Jessica T.
“Jessica did a fantastic job taking care of our odd menagerie (chickens, canary, hamster, bunny, hedgehog, and assorted fish) while we were gone for a week. She gave our animals extra care, taking them out to play and making sure they had food and water. She went above and beyond in watering our plants and bringing packages in, and was so professional in her friendliness, communication, and consistency, not missing a day. I really appreciated how she asked before bringing over a friend, and how she let me know right away when something was unusual with our chickens. I would absolutely hire her again and recommend her services to anyone.”

Tammi H.
“I first met Tammi in 1993 at a company we both worked at, she was my manager. We bonded over our love of animals. We've moved on to our separate ways after the company was sold but have remained close friends. She has watched my dogs, birds, and guinea pigs over the years when I've had to travel out of town. And I would highly recommend her, as not only just caring, but knowledgable in many different species. She has a love an appreciation for all animals. Your fur babies would not only have their basic needs met, but Tammi's extra special care and love too!”
