“Kelly is AMAZING. Very great with communication and made me feel at peace with her watching my dog. My place was out of her way but I was in desperate need for someone to check in on my pup and she made it happen!”

“This was our second time hiring Gary to look after our cat (and feed the fish, water the plants, and take in the mail). Our pets and house were in great shape when we returned. Gary’s terrific; I couldn’t recommend him more highly.”

About: While I am new to Rover, I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so taking care of them comes really naturally to me. I grew up with dogs, which helped me learn a lot about their behavior, routines, and different personalities. I’m a huge animal lover with two HIGH energy dogs at home who are my very best friends!! I also have some experience pet sitting, including taking care of older dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I have been pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was very young and so I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs, whether they’re super energetic or more laid-back. I understand it can be nerve wracking to leave your fur babies with someone else, but it is my priority to make the experience as safe, comfortable, fun, and as easy as possible! I’m reliable, detail oriented, and I genuinely love being around animals and of course, you’ll get routine updates, photos, and active communication regarding how your pets are doing so you’ll never have to worry. Im excited at the opportunity to love your pet like they are my own and to make your pet as happy as possible while you’re away! Staying active is really important to me, both for my mental and physical health, as well as the pets I care for, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I love being able to combine that with caring for fur babies, especially giving energetic dogs the exercise, playtime, and attention they need. Regular check-ins are easy for me to fit in, and since I’m a college student with classes only two days a week, I have a flexible schedule. I try to keep things as normal as possible for every pet I watch so they don’t feel stressed while their owner is away. I’ll stick to their usual routine, but I also pay attention to the little things like how they’re acting, their energy level, or if something seems off. If anything changes, I’ll always play it safe and reach out right away instead of guessing. I prioritize mindfulness in other’s homes, double checking doors are locked, making sure anything your pet could get into is put away, and leaving everything how I found it.

“Sean is great! He’s always punctual and takes my pup on long walks. I highly recommend!!”

About: I was raised taking care of animals and have loved doing it for my entire life. I know that taking care of your babies is one of the most important things you can do! My wife and I have three loving cats and a delightful dog at home so I’ll take care of your babies like they’re my own. I’m currently working part time so if you need a daily morning walker or even someone to watch the house and make sure the animals are okay it’s super easy for me to handle! Our dog is currently leash and crate trained and having worked as a vet tech I feel very comfortable handling any additional issues as they arrive regarding care or anything these animals require.

“Andrew was an amazing sitter! He was very communicative, punctual, and did a great job following all my instructions for Maisy. Would definitely recommend booking Andrew for your pet care needs!”

Ashley W.

“Kurtis was great! We appreciate that they were able to properly separate our dogs and that they were punctual even though we were flexible. Kurtis followed directions well. We will probably book Kurtis again in the future!”

Jesse T.

“Kirsten took the best care of my two kitties. She went above and beyond my expectations and left my apartment clean and my kitties happy. She took extra time to pet, brush, and play with the cats and kept me updated everyday with how things were going. Loved her and will be reaching out again!”

Becky K.

“Anytime we can book Allysia, we are so happy! She is the best pet and house sitter, and knowing that she will be stopping by every day provides us with so much relief. We really feel that we can trust her to take care of our kitties and our plants (the latter of which is really no easy task as we have hundreds). She is thoughtful, communicative, flexible to last minute travel changes, gentle with pets, able to administer medication and inhalers, and sends great photos and detailed updates. You can tell she has our pets’ best interests in mind and she is super reliable!”

Sarah V.

“Jacqueline was great with my puppy. She updated my puppy’s note and pictures on Rover every time she was done with sitting. From her great meno and pictures, I could feel that my puppy LOVED her and she adored him with the same heart I have. I’d love to have her back whenever she is available!”

About: Born into an animal loving family, I’ve had cats, ferrets, and currently have two big handsome dogs! Experienced with all stages of life my boys are Monty (Great Pyrenees -1.5 years old) and Jaxson is my old man (collie mix -15 years old). I’m a corporate dog mom of two boys with some extra time on the weekends! My scheduled availability is week nights, weekends, and holidays. I have a 6ft tall fenced yard with cameras to keep everyone safe. I can also keep animals separated via my basement or even crate your fur baby if needed.

About: I have been taking care of my family dogs since I was 10, and I have been my friends’ go-to sitter for the past 7 years as well. I have experience with both dogs and cats of all temperaments and ages. I have fostered both dogs and cats, and I am very educated and careful in regards to keeping animals safe and happy. I am currently available before or after work during the week, or all day on my remote work days, to assist with your pets and give them as much time and attention as you’d like! I am very careful and diligent while taking dogs on walks and while entering/exiting your place. I’d be happy to play fetch, tug or any game your pet may like! I have experience with more timid animals and can take it slow as well. I’m comfortable handling litter boxes or puppies in the potty training phase.

“Danielle took wonderful care of my kitty and my foster kitty! She sent great photos and updates so I didn’t have to worry while I was away!”

About: I have taken care of many animals in my life, and am looking forward to the opportunity to meet more pets! I am hoping to help pet owners who care for their pets, and need extra support throughout busy days or overnight trips. We work full time but are available in the mornings and evenings of weekdays, along with weekends! We have a big backyard to spend time with dogs in. As a long time pet sitter and babysitter, I have a great amount of experience working in other peoples homes, and feel that I am respectful and appreciative of people for letting me into their space. Ideally I will gain trust with the pet and pet parent, and will be able to offer support that is free from stress.
