“Katie was extremely thorough and timely in her check-ins on our cat, Grits. Every update was thoughtful and reassuring and we came home to a happy cat. Really appreciated that he got some playtime and attention while we were away and made it so much easier for us to have a relaxing first family vacation! Thanks again, Katie!”

10. danielle p.
“Danielle was great during the drop in visit with my dogs and took the time to go above and beyond to make sure they were both taken care of before leaving. She is very attentive and I’ll definitely be booking her again for future visits and walks!”
11. Ollie F.
“Ollie is trully dog's (and cat's) best friend! She has such a great love for all animals - and they are drawn to her (even those who take some time to warm up to people). I know that in HS both her Silver and Gold Girl Scout awards were centered around animals as her hope was to help both animals and their owners (horse rescue and preventing lost dogs). She has been a trusted pet sitter throughout our neighborhood. Always spending quality time with the pets and keeping their families updated with pics and status. I would highly recommend her as a dog walker/sitter.”
12. Emma D.
“Excellent service. This was my first time using Rover and I'm very pleased with Emma's communication and perseverance getting Rocco outside”
13. Judith L.
“Judith is a caring and patient individual who loves animals. I have observed her caring for pets, taking them on walks, feeding them. She is very responsible and all animals love her. Judith would make a great pet sittter and pet walker and any animal would be lucky to meet her. She is absolutely the best.”
14. Kaitlynn M.
“I struggled with how to care for my two cats, a senior & a junior, while I went on vacation. Violet, my eldest cat, had just been diagnosed with kidney/bladder issues and required a stringent schedule of medication. I was completely put at ease after my meet & greet Kaitlynn. Her attitude & attention to detail were both professional & comforting. The daily updates were insightful & showed her familiarity with my "kids" and their needs. Our first experience with Rover has been a pleasure. Just knowing that there are dedicated sitters like Kaitlynn available at a time of need is a true relief.”
15. Christine S.
“Communicative and professional!”
16. David R.
“David did drop-in visits for me while I was traveling for work. He was polite, professional, and friendly. My boyfriend and my cats approve! Would definitely recommend.”
17. Joannie D.
“Joannie is a great person and took wonderful care of our pup. She is the best!! Thank you for all that you did to help her while we were gone!”
18. Lindsey B.
“Lindsey is a kind and caring person with keen nurturing skills. She has grown up in a home with multiple dogs and is currently a trusted caregiver to our 2 dogs (Wheaten & Llassa). She will love your pets and take care of them with the upmost respect and responsibility.”
19. Camila L.
“Camila has been great these last couple of weeks. She has been prompt with her service and communicated any issues right away so we can work through them while she was there. Will be using her for any future pet sitting needs.”
20. Sara S.
About: I’ve been in absolute love with dogs since Jackson waddled into our lives when I was 9. I’ve been dogsitting cowowker’s’ pups (and cats) for the last few years and love everything about it. Happy to stay in the home; bonus points if the pups “have” to sleep in the bed with me 😁 I have more flexibility over the weekends but am free after 4 during the week. From July-end of August I’m a lot more of a free bird! My current home isn’t big enough for the favorite member(s) of your family, but I am very professional when staying at your home (I’ve never opened a single medicine cabinet). I love that I can keep your pets as comfortable as possible in their own home and am happy to do whatever funny breakfast or night routine that they need!
