“Rong has house/pet sat for us twice now. We have two labradoodles and a small flock of chickens. Rong is great about communication and following instructions. She took good care of all our pets and made sure all their needs were met. She also communicated daily with me and provided photos to show how our pups and chickens were doing while we were away. We were very happy with her services and plan to ask her to house/pet sit again in the future!”

“Kasey was a wonderful sitter, can’t recommend her enough! She took great care of my two kitties, one of which has asthma and needed special treatment, and she sent helpful updates throughout her stay. My Sophia is normally a HUGE introvert and hides when new people come but she warmed up to Kasey instantly and she shared the cutest cuddly pictures. Kasey was timely and gave my Eloise her inhaler every morning and night during the stay (Eloise even had a coughing fit which Kasey was able to respond to quickly and administer the emergency inhaler). I will definitely be booking with Kasey again for future cat sitting ☺️”

“I was so grateful that Cassandra and her daughter (who’s also on Rover) watched my dog, Shaya, after a very last minute cancellation from another sitter. Shaya can be nervous and a bit reactive, but was immediately comfortable with both, and they each clearly have a lot of experience with dogs. They sent regular photos and videos and took beautiful care of my home. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again.”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life and I love them so much. I have cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I have taken private puppy training classes, and I have a strong understanding of body language and behavior. I am comfortable adjusting my approach to fit their needs and personality. I like to send pictures and updates! I currently have a flexible schedule and I am happy to work with your routine. I am available for drop-ins and overnights as well. I can provide plenty of company, playtime, and attention while you're away. I treat every pet with the utmost care and attention to detail. I follow instructions and routines carefully, and I keep their environments safe, secure, and clean.

“Tami had a GREAT connection with Lucy. She quickly figured out Lucy's personality, her likes/dislikes, favorite activities (going to the beach) and also the ins and outs of my apartment and building. Tami did a wonderful job of sending me pictures at least twice a day so that I could feel at peace that my girl was happy and being taken good care of.”

About: Leaving your pet with someone new takes trust. My goal is to help you feel informed and reassured while giving your pet patient, attentive care that respects their personality, routine, and boundaries. My hands-on experience includes two and a half years caring for my rescued Chihuahua mix and two cats. I also volunteered socializing cats at a shelter when I was younger and, more recently, volunteered regularly at a farm animal sanctuary from April through October. There, I helped with feeding, fresh water, cleaning, preparing barns, and evening routines. I’m especially comfortable with cats and understand that building trust often means offering quiet company, respecting their space, and letting them choose when to interact. Caring for my own sensitive, reactive small dog has also taught me to watch body language closely, stay aware of my surroundings, and create distance from situations that make him uncomfortable. I treat every pet as an individual. Whether they enjoy sniff-filled walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I take time to learn what helps them feel comfortable. I let them set the pace for affection and interaction rather than forcing a connection. I’ve been vegan for seven years as part of my personal commitment to animal welfare. That commitment includes respecting each pet’s dietary needs—I’m comfortable handling meat-based food and following their established feeding routine. You can expect clear communication, thoughtful updates, and photos while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets and learn what helps them feel safe, understood, and cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and house sits around your pet’s routine. For new clients, I prefer at least three days’ notice so we have time to arrange a meet-and-greet and make sure we’re a good fit before confirming a booking. During house sits, I stay overnight but may leave during the day for other pet-care bookings, errands, and personal commitments. Before booking, we’ll discuss your pet’s usual schedule, potty-break needs, and how long they can comfortably be left alone, so you know what to expect. I take a careful, detail-oriented approach to caring for both your pets and your home. At our meet-and-greet, I’ll ask about feeding instructions, walking routines, behavior, triggers, household rules, and emergency contacts. I welcome detailed care notes and will follow the plan we agree on. On walks, I’ll stay aware of our surroundings, keep your dog leashed, and avoid unfamiliar dogs or greetings unless we’ve specifically discussed them. I pay attention to body language and give pets space when they show discomfort rather than pushing them into an interaction. In your home, I’ll be mindful of doors, gates, and escape risks, keep feeding and litter areas tidy, and respect your instructions about access to rooms and outdoor spaces. For cats, I’ll offer attention without forcing handling or disturbing them when they need space. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes about how your pet is doing and communicate promptly if I notice a change in their behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits. My aim is to maintain the familiar care they’re used to while giving them patience and support during your time away.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life and rescued my own fur baby 5 years ago. I watch dogs for friends and family all the time and genuinely love having them around. I love that every dog has their own personality, and I'm happy to meet them where they're at, whether they're playful and outgoing or a little shy and need some space. I'm no replacement for their favorite human, but I hope to give them a friendly, warm, low-stress environment where they can feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. 🐾 I'm currently working part time so I have a very flexible schedule. I'm available most week days all day, Saturdays all day and Sunday evenings. I have a car so can easily drop in for a visit or walk and pick up/drop off your pet. I live in a condo with my partner and a little Pomeranian named Romeo. I don't have a yard but live in a super walkable neighborhood with some parks nearby. I love staying active and driving to a trail/park from time to time to take a little hike.

Excellent, reliable sitter! Ana came and stayed with our two cats for a few nights while we were away and we couldn't be happier with her service. Very professional, great communication both before and during the stay, and you can tell she cares for the animals. Sent regular photos and updates, and we came home to a tidy house and happy, healthy cats :) We definitely recommend Ana!

India did an excellent job watching Izzo. She provided photos and ensured he received extra affection and care. I appreciated her responsiveness and will certainly book her again for future walks and pet sitting. It is comforting to know that I can trust my dog with her, and having that peace of mind allows me to fully enjoy my time away.

Manuel was wonderful with Hampton again, and this stay was especially meaningful to us. The day before we were scheduled to leave, Hampton experienced some symptoms related to his condition, which understandably made us nervous about traveling. Manuel was incredibly thoughtful and caring throughout it all and never hesitated about continuing with the stay. Hampton is getting older and is on several medications, so he sometimes needs more frequent potty breaks and extra patience when taking his meds. Manuel was more than happy to adjust to his needs and was incredibly patient with him. We also really appreciated the regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy Hampton and a spotless home. We’re very grateful for the care Manuel gives him and would absolutely trust him with Hampton again.

Carly was great for our zoo of 2 cats and 2 dogs. She was willing to come meet the animals quickly before the date of her services since it was so many animals and an overnight stay. She sent so many pictures and video updates it was great! She also messaged with any questions that I was unclear about to make sure that the animals were taken care of as intended. Would highly recommend her!
