We’ll definitely rebook if the need arises again.”

Communication is obviously one of Catherine’s strong points. We booked again right away!”
“Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen.

I’ll definitely use Kyle again for Reba’s care.”

We did a meet and greet with Colleen and Joe and they were wonderful. Dezi immediately took to their great yard and house and they were both so kind and willing to answer any questions and put us at ease. Dezi also loved Nico and it was clear they would be great friends. Dezi just had his first overnight with them and they were very communicative and sent pictures and updates. We are already booked for another visit and are so thankful to have found Colleen, Joe, and Nico!”

About: I was introduced to my first kitty at 5 months old, she became my second sister and we grew up together. I have loved all cats since that first interaction, and simply the presence of a happy cat brings me joy. My second kitty had cancer and needed a caretaker post-surgery, so I have experience in cones, medication, and post-op care. In addition, I have taken care of pregnant mamas and her kittens after birth, as well as multiple senior cats. Overall, whether a cat is high or low energy and/or high or low maintenance, I am just happy to be around!
“Kristi was so amazing and I’m so thankful she watched my cat! Would definitely have her do so again! The photos and update's made me feel confident that Little Kim was taken care of and happy! Thank you so much!!!”
“We have used Ciboney for 3 vacations now and every time she’s not only been available for our needy cat she’s been a great care giver. We can see our standoffish cat warmup throughout the visits in the daily photos and in turn that makes us all the more comfortable leaving Gidget behind. Thanks Ciboney!”
“Rob is a great cat sitter, he follows directions well and always attends to my Stella. They made friends right away. Ssure hope he’s available when I need cat sitting again! Thx, Rob😸”
About: I’ve spent years caring for cats and have experience looking after pets for neighbors, friends, and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats the attention and space they need to feel comfortable. I’ve also rescued and cared for stray and wild cats, which has taught me to be patient, gentle, and attentive to each cat’s unique personality and needs. I treat every cat in my care like they’re my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness.
“Marit took amazing care of my two cats for nearly a full week. She sent plenty of great photos of them playing together every day and was very easy to communicate with. Top notch care for my pets!”
“Abigail was great with my cat Pinecone! She took the time to find him and play with him during every visit. I get nervous about leaving him for longer trips, but I felt so confident in Abigail’s ability to provide amazing care for him!”
“This was my first time using Rover for my two cats, and I was a little nervous, but I definitely made the right choice hiring Amber. She was super communicative and flexible throughout the whole process and sent me an update and pictures of my babies everyday I was gone. They really seemed to take to her, too. She even brought in a package for me and offered to water my plants. So sweet! I’ll for sure hire her again in the future!”
“Marissa was kind and caring towards my furbabies. She followed through all the instructions. Both of my cats loved her! I'll definitely work with her again ☺️ highly recommend!”
“Caroline is incredibly loving to the animals in her care! She visited my cat while I was away and gave her the live and cuddles my cat craved. I am very grateful for all the pictures she sent me as well, which eased my mind. I am very grateful for Caroline!”
“THANK YOU SHYKALA. My cat has been experiencing some health issues and Shykala was so sensitive to my pets needs and made sure she was happy and comfortable and gave me great updates. She went above and beyond and even took the time to clean after my cat (she wasn’t asked to do that but it’s super appreciated). This isn’t the first time I have booked Shykala and it won’t be the last.”
“Teresa is the best cat sitter! My cat Chester immediately connected with her and enjoyed getting some playtime during her recent visit. I really appreciate Teresa’s attention to my cat’s needs when I’m out of town. You can count on her to follow detailed instructions, communicate throughly, and send lots of great photos. I would highly recommend Teresa to anyone looking for excellent pet care!”
About: I adopted my sweet Picante 3 years ago, and much of my cat care experience comes from the daily joy of caring for her. She's highly active and a particularly anxious kitty, so my experience encompasses cats that have a high-level of needs. Through taking care of loved ones' cats, I also have experience administering medication. I would be delighted to help care for your kitten!

“Amanda and Adam were so amazing with Winnie! Our dog is 1.5 years and has so much energy and they were able to tire her out! They gave frequent updates and photos! Winnie also had an upset tummy and they even made her rice ❤️ this has been our best rover experience yet!”
About: I feel that cats and dogs naturally tend to be close to me, which might be related to my personality. When I was helping my friend take care of a dachshund, I was told that he didn't like to interact with male beings. But on the second day of taking care of the dachshund, he would often circle around me and want to play with me with toys. I work in healthcare industry so basically I work remotely almost every day Therefore, I have the flexibility to play with the pets! Also, I live alone so they can be around me all the time, they will not be feeling left out! Regular feeding and freshwater is essential! I will also spend an amount of time every day to play with dogs! at last, I will provide a clean and pet friendly environment for them!

About: I’m a college student who had the pleasure to work with the PAWS program at the University Of Minnesota which helps people meet animals safely. It helped me educate more people about how pets support mental health and wellbeing. My favorite thing in the world is hosting those angels in my residence. I’m currently taking classes mostly Monday and Wednesday morning but when i’m not in school i’m usually at home with the pups. I take a long walk every morning so i usually like to have a buddy to accompany me! I prefer to adjust to the owner’s style rather than doing my own way. I’ve learned that some pups can get overwhelmed with sudden changes to their environment and routine.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 10. I also have experience with medication administration for both dogs and cats. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra care. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or overnight stays, I ensure every pet is loved and well cared for! I currently work full-time, so I’m gone for about 8 hours at a time Monday–Thursday. I start my days early, which means my evenings and weekends are generally free and flexible for pet care! I’m able to give pets plenty of attention before and after work, and I have a consistent weekly schedule that makes it easy for me to plan walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m also home most of the day Friday–Sunday, so I have lots of availability for longer visits and quality time with your pets. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a secure and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and stress-free. I always follow owners’ instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, leash preferences, or special care needs. I prioritize trust by keeping pet parents updated with messages and photos, so you always know your furry friend is in good hands. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, positive space where pets feel safe, happy, and loved.
“Nyree was amazing, and I’d highly recommend her! She came every morning for a week to let my fur baby out of her kennel, give her breakfast, and take her for a quick morning walk. Leia absolutely looked forward to her mornings with Nyree, and I’m so grateful for the kind, thoughtful care she provided.”
“i’ve been using emerson consistently multiple times a week for almost a year now- he is flexible, communicative and extremely reliable. he does a great job with my large doodle and even was able to manage my two large dogs when i had them both. will continue using emerson and highly recommend!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job walking our high energy dog, Isabella! She was available for a meet and greet beforehand, has been great to communicate with, and our dog was very happy after the walk. We look forward to having Jessica walk Isa again!”
About: Before leaving for college my parents bought a beautiful Pomeranian at 12 weeks old and she continues to be the sweetest girl ever. Now there are 2 Poms and I can just tell you I know how much effort goes into potty training, crate training, and behavior training! Being around that helped me realize the difficulties and differences between each dog. And since going to college I have dog walked for a few pet owners and I recognize the importance of following pet parent's guidelines and instructions and want to bring that service to you! With the end of my college semester approaching my schedule opens up significantly. I work ~30 hours a week, as early as 5:30 and as late as 7:30, with each shift being around 6.5 hours. With this my schedule allows me more time to check on your furry family easier. I cannot host pets in my dorm as the rules don't allow it. But! I have 2 Poms and understand just how sneaky and fast all animals can be! I am dedicated to protecting your pet as my own.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and absolutely love caring for them! I currently have a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with puppies, potty training, walks, playtime, feeding routines, crates, and all of the energy that comes with younger dogs. I also have experience with adult dogs of different sizes and personalities. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I’ll always treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. I work Thursday-Sunday afternoons or evenings as a server. Here is a rough overview of my class schedule: Mondays: done by 10:30 Tuesdays: done by 12:00 and class again from 4-5:15 Wednesday: done by 10:30, class again from 6-9pm Thursday: class from 10-12:45 Friday: done by 10:30 Right now I live in an apartment, so id be able to stay at your house. I’m very used to staying overnight at other people houses
“Alana did a wonderful job with Theo! Her communication was amazing and Theo was relaxed when we came home so I could tell he was well taken care of. His coat looked great too so I could see that she brushed him. I will definitely use Alana again.”
About: I've helped to care for cats and dogs of all kinds throughout my life. I have had cats my whole life and I have some experience caring for more senior dogs and cats. I am a college student looking for a way to help in my neighborhood. I am available to walk dogs and check in on pets before, between, and after my classes! I am very respectful of routines and the equipment needed to care for your pets. During check-ins I am very mindful of the trust that you have given me to look after your pets.
About: I have had animals my entire life and loving caring for them! I have had both large and medium sized dogs and currently have a sweet 5 year old cat. I have been a pet sitter for multiple years and am comfortable with all cats and dogs! I am available to stop by during the day most days of the week and weekend! I can be flexible with my schedule to accommodate your sitting needs. I love to play and be interactive with pets but also prioritize a safe and clean space for my animals! I am comfortable taking animals in my vehicle to parks and long walks outside.
“Darwin came and met Rory before he took care of him . He did a wonderful job , exercising Rory for an hour even though it was so hot Rory was very happy and tired out ! I would absolutely recommend Darwin”
About: I have always had dogs growing up and have found that having a companion as a pet makes a world of difference in our lives. I missed this companionship greatly throughout college and since graduating and am excited to be able to provide calm, loving, and supportive care. My family dog has a complex medical condition, so my experience ranges from the standard care to managing special diets and restrictions. As a nurse, I'm used to being calm, attentive, and dependable when it matters most. I bring that same mindset to pet care, using my free daytime hours to give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I am a responsible and respectful guest and committed to honoring the privacy of client's homes while providing loving pet care. I have a dog park/play area in my building and live near a couple of parks, making my home a great place for calmer, well behaved animals.
“It was a great experience working with Laura. Her communication and updates throughout her visits with Chance were so very appreciated. Laura is also incredibly attentive and thoughtful. Thank you for everything!”
“We are so grateful for Emilie. She is caring and detail oriented—the ideal person to look after our senior dog. Having her help has been a big relief when we need someone to stop in and take care of Lela.”
“Amber helped me and Lola so much today ! I very much appreciate all the help and will like to work you again please send me your availability for this week Sincerely Eloísa and Lola ?❄️??”
About: I have had dogs (golden retrievers) all my life, I have experience with puppies, seniors and everything in between. I love all kinds of dogs, especially active ones as I love to get outside and go for walks! I am a recent college graduate currently studying to be a certified public accountant with an incredibly flexible schedule! Studying is my full time job, so I am free to pause to go on walks and spend long periods of time with the pets whenever needed! I am very attentive to pets needs, making sure they are eating, drinking, and going outside as much as needed. I am very active and love going outside, so I am happy to get your pet as much exercise as they want!
“I'd definitely recommend Alex! He's been walking my dog Millie for about 2 months -- he's communicative and has been very flexible with his schedule. In particular, he's been extremely helpful at keeping an eye out when Millie has something health-related pop up that needs to be monitored, which gives me a ton of peace-of-mind!”
About: Hello! I have been consistently house/dog sitting since 2023. I have experience in watching dogs from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I previously have watched three dogs at a time, so if you have more than one dog that is no problem. I also have experience in providing dogs with medications needed throughout the day. This includes insulin shots and capsules/pills mixed into their food. While you are away I prefer to keep the dog in its original home rather than hosting your dog. I do require a meet & greet before services. This is for my safety alongside for you and your puppies comfortability with my presence. Beyond all else it’s important to me that your dog stays comfortable. I have cared for anxious, storm scared, epileptic, loud barkers, and jumpy puppies. It’s important to me that you communicate your animals behavior or traits so I can care to the best of my ability. Without a doubt I will accommodate to your dogs feeding requirements and potty breaks. Alongside that give them lots of cuddles, kisses, playtime, and walks. As for you… I will communicate how your puppy is doing, when I arrive, if any complications arise, and send photos! Your dog is in safe hands. I currently work at a coffee shop a few times a week! My hours usually range from 4-5 hours. So it’s never long enough to leave your puppy for long periods of time. I will always honor your puppies scheduled eating times and potty breaks throughout the day! Pets are so so important! As a caregiver, I want to relieve your stress and allow you to know that your pets are in safe hands! If you would be so kind to welcome me into your home, I can take care of them there. I would prefer to keep your animals where they feel most comfortable. A fenced in backyard is preferred, but taking them out on a walk is no hassle! Provide me with all of the important details on your puppy, and I can provide service towards them! ❤️
