“Amanda and her family did a fantastic job with my middle-aged lab. I got frequent pictures of her and she seems to have received the royal treatment! I was invited to come do a meet and greet, too, which was really helpful as it was our first time trusting our treasured girl with this family.”

“Mojo and Flash seemed to thrive with George! They came home happy and healthy. George sent us daily updates with pictures, which we really appreciated. Thank you for taking good care of our boys!”

“Once again, Tiffani and her family took great care of my pup, Rosie, while we were on vacation! She had to help her through a couple thunderstorms for the first time, but I was happy knowing Rosie was extra loved. I appreciated the cute video updates and prompt responses. Rosie LOVES staying with Tiffani & her sweet family! They've become her "home away from home". 🩷”

“Amanda and her husband were amazing with Huckleberry. She told me their house is a dog house and boy was she right! He immediately seemed comfortable there the moment we dropped him off. She gave us consistent updates throughout the stay and treated him as he was her own. He absolutely adored her and was loving all the cuddles and attention. I wouldn’t want anyone else to watch him in the future and I hope we get to utilize Amanda’s services again!”
“Anthony was so sweet with my anxious baby girl! I got lots of pics and videos while she was with him which was very appreciated. Would definitely love to use him again!”

“We had a very last minute request for boarding and Kerri was able to accommodate us. It was our first time booking and she kept us updated on how he was doing which helped keep our minds at ease.”

“Alisa was great! Very informative during our introductory call. Easy drop off and pick up even with me not being there physically to drop them off. She sent lots of photos i can definitely tell my two dogs were happy and in a pet loving home. I’d definitely recommend Alisa to anyone!”

“Chris and Cass were great! Very patient, kind and flexible. As sweet as our pitbull is, sometimes it’s hard to find a sitter because of the stigma that surrounds the breed. They even had our back when our flight was cancelled multiple times, forcing us to extend our dog’s stay. I’ll definitely be rebooking with them when needed and highly recommend them.”


“This is the first we had used the Rover service. Anthony was wonderful!!! Sent us pictures of her playing throughout her stay and took great care of her!! She was in great hands and will definitely be using him again!”


“JoAnn is the absolute best. Our boy Marty came back healthy and although he got dropped off with some skin issues she was so attentive to caring for him and providing his medication. We appreciated the daily pictures/videos and she was very responsive with any questions or concerns we had while away. Thank you again to JoAnn!”

“Andrew was fantastic with our two dogs over the holiday. Making sure they had their walks and constant attention gave us so much peace of mind! So thankful for all the love our pups got!”

“SYDNEY IS THE BEST! This was the first time our dog, Primo, stayed with someone who wasn’t already familiar with him, so naturally, we were a little nervous about leaving him while we were away on vacation. From the very beginning, Sydney completely put our minds at ease. She took the time to address every concern we had, answered all of our questions, and reassured us that Primo would be safe, comfortable, and very well taken care of. Sydney was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and professional throughout Primo’s entire stay. What we appreciated most was her communication. Every morning and evening, she sent us pictures along with updates and notes about how Primo was doing. Being able to see him happy and comfortable allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. It was clear that Sydney treated Primo with genuine care and attention, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience leaving him with someone new. Sydney has definitely earned our trust, and we will absolutely be using her services again in the future. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, communicative, and trustworthy to care for your pet, we highly recommend Sydney. Thank you, Sydney!”

“Meredith was the best pet sitter I could have asked for. She was so sweet with my dogs and kept me updated with lots of videos and photos. You can tell how much she loves animals and it felt like she treated my pups as her own. Will absolutely be using her in the future!!”

“Susan was great to communicate with and easy to work with. Even when unexpected things came up, she was upfront and worked out a good situation for our dog. She was also flexible with pickup when our flight was an hour delayed getting back.”

“We used Andria to watch our pup while we were away and everything was great!! We received updates, pictures and videos from Andria during the stay. Thank you sooo much for taking such good care of Rosie for us.”
“This was my pup's first stay with Sofia, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She sent frequent updates and photos throughout the holiday weekend, which really helped me relax knowing my girl was happy and well cared for. Sofia's communication was excellent, and I truly appreciated the care and attention she gave my pup. I'd absolutely book another stay and highly recommend her!”

“A very kind and attentive person. She gave my cat her full attention and affection! The daily “card” with the pictures assured me that all was well. And she added a special touch on the last day.”


“Christina did an amazing job of bonding with my cat. It gave me enormous reassurance while I was traveling to know he was being well cared for. Thanks a million Christina. You're at the top of my list when I'm traveling in the future.”

“Kristina is amazing! My cats loved her instantly and she was so good with them! She also had wonderful communication and sent lots of pictures! I recommend her for sure!!”


“First time needing someone that wasn’t family to watch my girl, Jennifer made me feel so confident that she was being taken very well care of! She was thorough, kind, easy and quick to communicate with, and met all of my cats wants and needs! Thank you Jennifer!!”

“My two cats LOVED Sarah. She treated them like family and it really eased my anxiety about leaving them for five days. Thank you so much Sarah, I truly appreciate your time and kindness.”

“I am so very pleased to have found Alex through the Rover website! Alex was exceptional as a caregiver for our cat and was attentive to his little personality quirks and daily habits. Alex made a point to connect with our cat during the initial intro visit, and I could tell by the daily updates and photos that Alex continued to do everything possible to make his routine “normal” while we were away. It was such a relief to not have to worry because I was so confident in Alex’s great intuition, common sense, and caring attitude toward animals. Thank you, Alex!!!”

“I’ve had Brittany watch my three kittens twice now and she has been very communicative and flexible with bookings. Always provides updates and pictures of drop-in visits and spends about 30 mins petting and playing with the kittens each visit in addition to food, water, and the litterbox.”


“This is the second time I've hired Arden to watch my cats, and I'll definitely continue to be a repeat customer! She is very polite and communicative, and you can tell she really cares about the animals she sits for.”


“Chelsea was fantastic! We received daily communication, updates and photos of our cats. They were very well taken care of and we are very pleased. This was our first time using this type of service and it won’t be our last time with Chelsea. Highly recommend!”


“Hanan took great care of Oreo while we were gone and she is the first overnight stay Rover that actually listens to us and takes advantage of the stay and treats it like a staycation which we encourage. We came home to a happy kitty!”

“Randi was very patient with our cat and sent comprehensive updates about his food/water/litter status, which we appreciated since he has some special needs.”

“Shelly was fantastic with Nightwing and Turdle! She took care of all of their needs and even confirmed Nightwing was in his room when our evening sitter (my partners mom) was unable to locate him. She kept us updated on all of his mood changes as well as was able to get our half outdoor/indoor cat Turdle in! She really trusted her to be able to do that, which was fantastic for only meeting her a few times! ♡♡♡ Will absolutely be booking with her again when we're out of town for a few days!!!”

“Dena and her family did a great job with Biscuit. She was happy and content when I picked her up. It is clear that they provided her with loving care. We will definitely be back.”

“Nadine and Mark go above and beyond for our puppy. They truly care about Mercedes and treat her like their own dog. She goes for walks, they play with her, they talk to her and love her as if she were their own. Thank you so much!”

“Anthony was great. We did a meet and greet and when I dropped her off the day, he sent me lots of pictures to reassure me Tilly was content and safe. He took her for walks and spoiled her. I plan to use him again. 5 stars.”

“I couldn’t possibly be happier with my dog’s experience at Teresa’s home. From our meet and greet a few days ago to daycare today, Teresa has been nothing but kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming to my dog and my family. Her dogs were a great mix of playful and chill - my pup is worn out this evening, haha. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I thought about daycare for my new rescue dog. Many more playdates to come. 🙂 It’s so comforting knowing she was in excellent hands.”

“Amanda took care of our high energy puppy for a few days. She was caring, responsive, and sent update photos through the day. Our lil guy was so tired when he got home, I’ve never seen him sleep so well!”

“Bentley had a great time hanging out with Murphy and Meredith. We've just moved to the Ferndale area, and he misses his old neighbor friends. Happy he's made a friend with Murphy:)”

“Rhonda was great with Casey, sounds like they had a fun time together. She sent pictures and a detailed summary of their walk. She was on time and responsive to any questions.”

“Izzy is fantastic. Izzy has walked our dog for close to a year. She’s completely reliable, makes sure our dog doesn’t eat anything suspicious while walking, and has even done some dog training. Our girl loves her so much, she will actually leave the house with Izzy even though I may be home - she doesn’t do this for anyone but Izzy.”

“Colleen is amazing! Her communication is top-notch, and she always keeps me updated with photos and activity details from the walks. Most importantly, she has an incredible connection with our dog, Annie, who absolutely adores her. It gives me total peace of mind knowing she is in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend Colleen!”

About: I have been caring for animals since elementary school. I watched cats and dogs for neighbors and friends of the family. As I got older, I started getting referrals for pets from around the community and cared for those animals too. The arch of my kindness and care is not limited to animals, as I also provide care for the elderly. I cared for both of my grandparents and my father until his passing. I currently provide care and other services to a 104 year-old young lady who is believed to be my community’s oldest living resident and yes, she still walks and does not use a wheelchair. I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can care for your pet any day of the week (unless I have another pet scheduled for that day) and at times convenient for most people. I am here to follow your instructions and schedule without deviation. Your fur baby will be feed exactly at the time(s) directed by you, same with any medication(s). For dogs, I will take them outside for walks and indoor/outdoor play as weather permits, and see that their water is always fresh with some treats and cuddles too. For cats, it is play and more play; plus fresh water and treats, then snuggling when we are done.
