“Sophia is hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever worked with. She truly understands feline behavior and knows how to handle cats with so much care and respect for their individual personalities. She followed all my instructions perfectly-and honestly, went above and beyond 100% of what I asked for. During an unexpected situation, she handled everything with great calm and expertise, while maintaining fast, clear, and reassuring communication with me. I felt completely at ease leaving my fur babies in her hands. I will be booking Sophia again for all my future pet sitting needs. Thank you so much, Sophia!”

“Brooke is so kind and accommodating. I needed her last minute and made some modifications to my booking and she was extremely flexible and accepting. I am excited to have her watch my cat again!”

“Novia is extremely professional, kind and reliable and goes above and beyond. She sent multiple videos/photos and detailed reports on her visits daily. My husband and I looked forward to her videos so we could see our cats in action. So cute!!! We knew our boys were in good hands which meant peace of mind for us. Thank you Novia:)”

“Marcelle is kind, patient, punctual and a great communicator. She follows through with directions and provides thorough details at each visit. She has terrific skills with elder dogs and puppies. We are always pleased to have her return to our home to care for our dog when available.”

About: I grew up with a dog and learned how to care for and raise him from a young age. He lived a long life and passed away in my arms at 17, which taught me how deeply pets become part of the family. Later, when I became a parent myself, we brought two dogs into our home right away. One of them had a congenital condition, and for 10 years we cared for him very attentively, making sure he lived a happy and comfortable life. This gave me strong experience not only in daily care, but also in supporting dogs with medical needs. Now our second dog has lost his companion, and I came to Rover to be helpful to other families and their pets. Your dog will not feel lonely — he will have company, care, and a warm, loving environment. I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog as part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home most of the day. I structure my day around the dogs — regular walks, feeding, playtime, and rest. It’s very important to me to keep a consistent routine and give each dog enough attention, especially during moments when they may miss their owners. We go on daily walks in safe and pleasant areas nearby. There is also a dog park where your dog can play off-leash if you are comfortable with that, as well as many walking trails for longer, relaxed walks. I always adjust the activity level to your dog’s needs and personality. I also provide regular updates with photos and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We live in a bright, spacious apartment where your dog will feel comfortable and safe. I accept one dog at a time, or two dogs from the same family, so each pet can receive plenty of attention and care. My child is 16 years old and has a great understanding of how to interact with animals respectfully and calmly. You can leave all your instructions, preferences, and schedules — I will follow them carefully to make sure your dog feels at home and stays in their usual routine.
“Rachel was such an incredible sitter! It shows in everything she does that she loves and cares about animals. Every time she visited my cats I got several pictures of them looking happy as well as pictures of replenished water, food and litter boxes. I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was young, I love animals! I have my own furry pet, and I consider him family :) I’m a full-time student, so my schedule varies throughout the week. I keep my Rover calendar updated and only accept bookings when I know I can provide your pet with dependable, attentive care! I have a social friendly 20lb dog that can keep your fur baby company, if requested! I live in an apartment with its own bark park but I know many safe nature routes, parks, and paved streets for any requested longer walks. I take my own fur baby on them often! :)
“Victoria was great! She took great care of our 3 cattos, she was on time, kept us informed, shared pictures with us, etc She understood our cats’ personalities and was able to connect with them accordingly. She was extremely helpful and supportive, we will definitely keep her in mind for future bookings.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for 4 years and genuinely love being around animals. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving fresh water, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own! I’m a college student, and my classes are only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m available most of the day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I may also be available on weekends depending on my plans, so I’m happy to coordinate ahead of time with pet parents. I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive when caring for pets. When visiting a client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, fed, and have fresh water. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and always treat their home and pets with respect.
“Irene was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, and since my wife and I were traveling across the world, we were definitely a little nervous about leaving our two cats, Genesis and Kasos, at home. From our very first meet and greet to the last day, Irene was incredibly thoughtful, kind, and attentive. She sent us daily updates with pictures of the cats, which made such a difference. It honestly felt like we weren’t even away because we got to see Genesis and Kasos every day and know they were happy and well taken care of. After our initial meet and greet, Irene even offered to come back for another one because she could tell we were a little nervous. That meant so much to us! She spent time playing with the cats, brushing them, and giving them plenty of attention. We would highly recommend Irene to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their pets. She gave us so much peace of mind that we were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing Genesis and Kasos were in great hands. We will absolutely be using Irene again! ❤️🐱🐱”

“Rachel has been absolutely amazing! I have such a hard time leaving my pup, but I was stress free this wedding weekend while I got married because Rachel has been so nice and sweet & kept us updated constantly ! Thank you Rachel!”

About: I have grown up with 2 beagles myself till high school, until both of them have passed away. Along with other dogs that my family and friends have left for me to pet sit as well!

About: I'm the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family. I am experienced with helping them walk, feed, play, and clean up when I have their fur babies in my care. I love to pet and play with pets. In fact, you will find me frequenting a pet store just to look at pets!

I've always enjoyed spending time around animals and I find dogs to be adorable and calming to be around. You know you're in good hands as you can count on me to ensure your dog is taken care of! I am currently working part-time so I operate on a fairly flexible schedule where I will have time to watch your pet. I will be scheduling doggy daycare and services around the days I am off work from my other job. I also have a husband who is a dog lover so you can trust that there is an extra pair of eyes that can help watch your pet. I live in a clean condo with wooden floors. I also have a small fenced back patio. If your dog ever needs a potty or a bathroom break, they can easily go in this outside patio area.

Sophia was timely, took lots of photos, and was super attentive to Monty during her stop in visit. We can tell from the pictures how happy he was to play with her, and was wiped out by the time she left. We appreciate her attention to detail when being around our house without us home. Thank you Sophia!

I had a great experience with Randi! She was right on time, which I really appreciated, and she was very friendly and professional from the moment she arrived. Most importantly, my dog really liked her and seemed completely comfortable around her, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She took the time to interact with my dog and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely enjoys being around animals and takes the responsibility seriously. Communication was easy, and I felt confident knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again and would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Great experience all around!

Rachel was superbly communicative, enthusiastic, and helpful throughout our trip. We were incredibly grateful to have her looking after our kitties. She gave us the peace of mind needed to enjoy our trip without worrying too much about the family we could not bring with us.

Bailey is absolutely wonderful! This was the second time she took care of my cat, George, and once again, she did a fantastic job. She communicates so well and is incredibly attentive and thoughtful. I really appreciate all the pictures she sends and the detailed notes she leaves about how George is doing, what he’s been up to, how much he’s eating, and all the little details in between. It honestly gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away knowing that he’s in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Bailey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible cat sitter. 10/10 I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Kailyr did a great job taking care of our two cats this weekend while we were away — When she came over to meet them before we left, she asked great questions and took a lot of notes, and our kitties warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone she sent lots of pictures and videos and gave us detailed notes on how they were doing and how they were during the visit. She has a lot of experience taking care of animals and is responsible and communicative — Very much recommended!

This is our second time booking Amanda, and once again, our cat had an amazing time while we were out of town! She made sure to give him plenty of cuddles and playtime during every visit, and she always provided detailed Rover Cards with lots of photos and videos. Amanda is reliable, responsible, and such a sweetheart with our cat. We would absolutely book her again!
