“Ania was amazing watching our pup, Tater, over the Thanksgiving holiday. She was so flexible with meet and greet schedules, pick-up and drop-off and quickly eased our anxieties about finding a sitter. She provided so many cute photos and thorough updates every day and made us feel like Tater was part of her family. She treated him like one of her own pets and spoiled him with the cuddles and attention he demands lol. Tater got along well with her two small dogs and her home is so cozy - so many spots for Tater to snuggle up and nap. Do not hesitate to book with Ania if you need a dog sitter!”
“Amy was great! Our little fur baby loved her stay there. She and her husband were very welcoming, and they sent us lots of pictures and updates. I would recommend them!”
“Donna was very good with Holly. Holly is an older dog that needs to go out more than a young dog and Donna was very responsive and understanding with her. I will use Donna again”
“Every time my dog stays with Chris, he’s upset at me for picking him back up 😅. He’s clearly having a great time and is always well taken care of so we’re repeat customers for as long as he’ll have us.”
“Skye provides a Loving safe and secure environment for your pet. I recommend using the service Rover app provided to contact Skye for your Pets needs. Skye boarded my Husky “Snooki” 5 days and nights. She will be my “Go To” in the future.”
“We love Bibiana! My husband and I have used her services multiple times, and we couldn't be happier. She recently watched our dog for two weeks, and the experience was great. We received daily updates, often multiple times a day, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was safe, happy, and well taken care of. We can tell that our dog enjoys revisiting Bibiana. She provides a comfortable home environment, with access to the backyard to play, and she gets treated like part of her family. Very highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Highly recommend! From setting up a meet and greet before we left to sending pictures and updates while we were gone. It was such a relief while we were out of state to know our babies were being loved and taken care of.”
“Highly recommend she’s very patient polite I love the updates and photos. My puppy had a spa day. He seemed very relaxed comfortable and happy with her. Outside of her taking care of my puppy she was flexible with me when I needed to extend an extra day. I would definitely be a returning customer.”
“I had an accident and was forced to board my 3 dogs this week. Rebecca took GREAT care of them! I was able to bring one home (I needed a pup!!!) and booked a 2nd week with her for the other two. :)”
“Our Boston terrier Duke has stayed with Terri twice now. Both times we received pictures and reports that he was fine. Terri is an experienced dog handler and has given us advice about our rambunctious 1 1/2 year old boy which is welcomed. We haven’t had a pup in a long time. She is prompt answering our texts, close to our house and we trust her with our boy Duke. Much gratitude giving us piece of mind when we are out of town.”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Katherine and her family provided to our 10 year old goldendoodle! We loved the daily updates and photos and could rest easy knowing he was in good hands.”
“Angie was awesome with our dog Toby! She was quick to respond and take him into her home in such short notice. She sent us videos and pictures often, assuring us that he was well taken care of and having the best time of his dog life! I totally recommend Angie as your go-to pet sitter ❤️”

“Elena and her father did an amazing job taking care of my pup! It was my first time being away from home for a long period of time and I looked forward to seeing the wonderful updates every day! My friends and family were excited to see Kobe’s daily updates and goofy pics as well. It was very heartwarming to know my dog was well taken care of and made new human friends as well as a furry friend, their dog Coco! :) would love to be able to reunite Kobe and Elena in the future as well <3”
“I cannot express how pleased I am with Natalie and her family. She welcomed my two fur babies into their home and treated them as their own. My little girls were so well taken care of and treated as part of the family. She also is great at communication and sent me lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend Natalie and her family to watch your fur babies.”
“I couldn’t ask for the most perfect person to watch my Roman. Rom is a lot to deal with sometimes and requires lots of patience and she was that and more. Bri would send lots of updates and pictures during our time away from Roman and which was much appreciated!! She was very easy to communicate with as she well.”

“Jennifer was great! She was able to take the job at the last minute. She came out every day and played with the cats. I really appreciate the job she did and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a cat sitter.”
“Tifaney was incredibly responsive and attentive to our need for our fur babies. Thank you for sending us photos and taking care of them while we were out of town.”
“Angela is very kind as I asked her to water my plants and bring in packages as well as taking care of my Ally. She did an amazing job. I would call her again if the future calls for a Rover sitter. Thank you, Brenda”
“Olivia was amazing! This was our first time using Rover. Our baby boy, Emerson Roy, has a traumatic past as a shelter rescue. He is extremely shy and nervous around new people and it takes him a long time to trust and recognize safe humans especially if mom and dad are not present. Olivia accommodated all of our requests and went by Emerson’s pace. She gave him space, while also talking to him and comforting him. Her communication was 10/10, she was always on time, extremely responsive, and gave us reassurance while we were out of state. We will continue to book her for our sitting needs. On top of her skills as a pet sitter, she is so warm, funny, personable, and caring. She asked all of the right questions at the meet and greet (including safety/emergency planning), and even left a pair of shoes and a sweatshirt so that Emmy could warm up to her scent a week before our booking time. Olivia went above and beyond to provide excellent care. We plan to frequently book her (even if we aren’t going out of town) so that Emmy gets even more used to her for whenever we go out of town next. We are so grateful! ♥️🐾 highly recommend!”
“Tamara did a fantastic job. She kept in constant contact during visits. Asked questions about my kitties peculiarities to make sure nothing was wrong and sent great pics.”
“Allison was so sweet and kind-hearted! I was so nervous leaving my kitties and she helped so much! She was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond. I will definitely use her the next time I’m out of town!!”
“Emma was amazing while we were away while she looked after our cat. Got lots of updates and pics of our boy and the house was perfectly looked after. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Rosemary is a great sitter, very reliable and attentive. She took good care of our dogs for a weekend while we were gone. I’ll recommend her to anyone that needs help with their dogs. 100%”
“Sydney was absolutely amazing with my two cats this past weekend! From the moment we booked, she was communicative, professional, and clearly a true animal lover. She provided regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. One of my cats is very shy and usually keeps to herself, while the other is super lovable and craves attention. Sydney was great with both—patient and gentle with my shy cat, and affectionate and engaging with my social one. I highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable cat sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free.

I follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care needs provided by the owner. I also keep the environment clean and safe, monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health, and provide updates to owners so they feel confident their pets are well cared for
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. I’m the proud owner of two rescue cats, Alfredo and Mac, and I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and prefers a quiet companion, I’ll care for them at their pace while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving plenty of attention (or space!) based on what your cat prefers. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Alex was very pleasant and an amazing cat sitter! She showed up on time all the time and she made sure that we weren’t worried about our cat and we felt good knowing that she was in Alex’s hands!”

“My dog, Harlan, is a rescue we've had for a year. We recently had an event at our house that included over 30 adults and children who he has never met. I decided a pet sitter. Was a good option. Harlan was very nervous when we got to Christopher's house., but Christopher gained his trust quickly. A feat still not accomplished by friends Harlan knows well. Would definitely recommend.”
“Angie done amazing with Krystal. She was able to book us at the last minute. She kept me updated while she was with her and Krystal had so much fun. Angie will be our go to sitter for now and on.”
“We’ve had Rebecca watch my girl every week for the past month or so, and she has been the absolute best! She always makes sure Rani has ample time to play and have so much fun! It’s nice not having to worry about how she’s doing while I’m at the office ☺️”
“Lina is great with Morgan! He has just started with her and we can tell he likes her. He is happy to see her and her puppies every morning. She reports his daily activities (eating, potty, playtime). She sends photos and videos and texts us updates through out the day. It's great to see how he is doing through the day! When we pick him up he falls asleep in the car on the way home, we know he has had a good day!! We are Very happy with Lina!”

We received daily updates, often multiple times a day, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was safe, happy, and well taken care of. We can tell that our dog enjoys revisiting Bibiana. She provides a comfortable home environment, with access to the backyard to play, and she gets treated like part of her family. Very highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Highly recommend! From setting up a meet and greet before we left to sending pictures and updates while we were gone. It was such a relief while we were out of state to know our babies were being loved and taken care of.”
“Highly recommend she’s very patient polite I love the updates and photos. My puppy had a spa day. He seemed very relaxed comfortable and happy with her. Outside of her taking care of my puppy she was flexible with me when I needed to extend an extra day. I would definitely be a returning customer.”
“I had an accident and was forced to board my 3 dogs this week. Rebecca took GREAT care of them! I was able to bring one home (I needed a pup!!!) and booked a 2nd week with her for the other two. :)”
“Our Boston terrier Duke has stayed with Terri twice now. Both times we received pictures and reports that he was fine. Terri is an experienced dog handler and has given us advice about our rambunctious 1 1/2 year old boy which is welcomed. We haven’t had a pup in a long time. She is prompt answering our texts, close to our house and we trust her with our boy Duke. Much gratitude giving us piece of mind when we are out of town.”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Katherine and her family provided to our 10 year old goldendoodle! We loved the daily updates and photos and could rest easy knowing he was in good hands.”
“Angie was awesome with our dog Toby! She was quick to respond and take him into her home in such short notice. She sent us videos and pictures often, assuring us that he was well taken care of and having the best time of his dog life! I totally recommend Angie as your go-to pet sitter ❤️”
“Jacquelyn did a fantastic job with our lab Roo for a week during Christmas. Roo, became very comfortable quickly in their environment. Plenty of updates and pictures. This is definitely a dog loving family. Highly recommend Jacqui and family. Thanks for watching our Roo!”
“Elena and her father did an amazing job taking care of my pup! It was my first time being away from home for a long period of time and I looked forward to seeing the wonderful updates every day! My friends and family were excited to see Kobe’s daily updates and goofy pics as well. It was very heartwarming to know my dog was well taken care of and made new human friends as well as a furry friend, their dog Coco! :) would love to be able to reunite Kobe and Elena in the future as well <3”
“Kathryn is always amazing with my pup! She gives me such a sense of peace knowing my dog is safe, happy, and well cared for whenever I’m away. I never have to worry because I know she’s in loving, capable hands. Kathryn is reliable, caring, and provides excellent care every time. I truly appreciate everything she does and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy caretaker for your dog.”

“Sabrina was so good to my Bruno. She made him feel right at home and spoiled him. She communicated with me and sent me frequent picture updates. She also was very accommodating and easy to work with. Thank you so much for taking good care of my sweet boy!”
