“We have used Jennifer many times. She goes above and beyond for our cats. She sends lots of pictures and videos. I can tell that my cats truly love her and are so excited to see her every visit. Jennifer also handled complex situations, like recovery from surgery and needing to keep the cats separated in the house or giving medication. Hands down, Jennifer is the best sitter I have ever used on Rover!”

About: I have been around animals since I was young! I have years of experience taking care of them and house sitting in the process. I have interacted with all kinds of dogs and cats with different personalities and various needs/schedules. I am active, love to run, and go on walks! I am currently a law student, but my schedule is flexible. This allows me to accommodate your animals' needs and change my schedule to fit theirs. I am very loving and love playing with animals. I pride myself on leaving houses cleaner than when I come! I can take care of animals however they need it. I'm currently an law student. While I do have classes during the day, I have lots of breaks and a pretty flexible schedule. I normally try and spend most of my day with your pets! I love to be active or cuddle on the couch, it all depends what your pet needs! Either way, I adapt to your dogs lifestyle.

About: Growing up with two cats, a large lab, and a horse, I truely adore animals and am so ready for whatever your pet throws at me! I’m ready to walk your dog, throw a ball, or whatever else your pet need. Even if that means just sitting with a sassy cat! As a full time student I do require some flexibility due to my tight class schedule. My weeks vary, but I will always try to make extra time for your doggo! I am extremely responsible and will treat your home as if it’s my own. Meaning as clean and tidy as humanly possible! I am able to pick up after any accidents if they occur and just chill with your pet if they need that too!
“Chloe was great with B, was always timely and provided us with great updates on how she was doing while we were out of town! Would highly recommend!”

“We have used Cassi to drop-in on our two cats for three long trips now and every time has been a wonderful experience. Cassi is always quick to respond to questions, or requests for cat sitting. She is reliable and I feel comfortable being away from home knowing that she will take good care of our kitties during her drop-in visits. My favorite part are the detailed updates Cassi provides for each drop-in. She always leave cute messages about how the cats are doing and how they were feeling in addition to photos! I will continue to use Cassi for all my cat sitting needs, and highly recommend her.”

“Aiden was so great! We booked him to look after our babies during the holidays and he gave them tons of attention, playtime, and even got them a little gift on Christmas Day. Highly recommend!”

University pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with Lena! She was communicative, reliable, and it was obvious that our cats would be in good hands while we were away. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when we needed a extra drop-in visit last minute. Her quick response and flexibility made an unexpected situation much less stressful. When we got home, our cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We will definitely be reaching out in the future! 😸

Katie was absolutely amazing with my cat while I was away. She was communicative and reliable and made sure everything was taken care of. She also went above and beyond with watering my plants and attempting to brush the cat even though she hates being brushed ! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter.

Please know that Chelsea was contacted last minute to stop by to allow my bff doggie SiSi a potty break as I had a unscheduled appointment in FOCO. Chelsea definitely earns high marks for her clear communication and care for SiSi. I would highly recommend and will gladly rebook her services should the need arise.
