“This is the second time we’ve left Nalu with her for a long period of time. She communicates well and sends videos and pictures throughout the stay! He came home so happy and I was at peace knowing he was well taken care of!”
“Gayle was AMAZING with my fur babies. She was very good at communicating and giving updates and photos during their stay. My babies opened up so much while spending time with her and Sitka. She was very flexible and was able to keep them for an extra night when my plans changed last minute. We are very grateful to her for taking such good care of our pups and will gladly book with her again ?”
“You will not find more attentive and caring hosts than Dan and Dave! Our very anxious older dog was quickly at home with them and their sweet chihuahua, Hoss. Our Maisie was walked twice a day and I was sent pictures and updates each day. I couldn't recommend them more highly! They are wonderful pet hosts!!”
“Christina was easy to work with, very responsive and kept us updated the entire time she watched our cat, Gus! I would highly recommend and will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“If you need a sitter for your pet don't look for anyone else but Jade!! She made us feel at ease with our meet and greet and is very professional. We were nervous about leaving Maisie with someone but she started sending pictures and videos almost immediately and put us right at ease. We didn't worry the whole time we were gone. Jade is our go to sitter for Maisie from now on!!!!!”
“She took wonderful care of my dog, who can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, and handled her with patience and kindness. I received many photos showing my dog happy, comfortable, and enjoying time with her loving family, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was being treated like part of the family, not just being watched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their pet.”
“Danielle really came through for me at the last minute, I'm so grateful! She was very kind and attentive with my dog, Esther, sending adorable pics and updates. Esther is an anxious girl, but she seemed to relax in Danielle's home, it really put me at ease. Thank you again!”
“Best decision ever! We were nervous about leaving our two dogs with someone we did not know but with one getting older we didn’t want them to be in a kennel and not have interaction with others. We were gone over a week to Hawaii and I received regular updates and pictures. I could tell they were well cared for and having a great time. It was a good peace of mind being so far away. When we got home we could tell the dogs were happy and had a blast meeting their new friends. We love Nicole and we will definitely do this again next time.”
“Karlie was very flexible and easy to plan with. Her house is very dog friendly and her pup, Dresden, is a great playmate! Our dog didn’t care when we left at drop off because she was already having so much fun.”
“My beagle stayed with Madlin for 4 days, had an issue with another arrangement while I was out of town and Madlin was able to handle everything (picked up my dog and helped both my beagle's stress and my own with great communication). She was a life saver for me and my dog loved her, would recommend her to anyone in the Salem area.”
“Tienne did great with my dog, Sydney. She was really easy to work with and was very flexible and understanding. She is a Vet Tech which made me much more comfortable should any issues arise. I will definitely use Tienne in the future.”
“Kathrine is an AMAZING sitter! I went out of town for 5 days and left my pup with her at her home. I immediately felt comfortable leaving her there when I dropped her off. She sent pics, videos, and updated me on all things (eating, pooping, etc.). Her dog, Ophelia, was the sweetest companion and I could tell her and my dog were besties from the pics she sent! They went on multiple walks a day, and even a weekend adventure! I will definitely be using Kathrine again in the future!”
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”
“Julia treats your fur baby like her own! Her loving daughters will give your pet plenty of hugs, pets and attention! She was very quick to respond and provide photos during my pet’s stay. Would highly recommend this loving household!”
“Mickenzie was flexible and easy to work with. She kept me updated on how my dog settled in and even helped me by carrying his crate out to my truck when I picked him up. Skerby seemed very happy hanging out at her house. Thank you, Mickenzie!”

“Our confidence in Erin is only exceeded by our gratitude for her diligent and considerate care of our precious 2 cat babies. She is both delightful and professional and absolutely among the best pet sitters out there. We look forward to having Erin provide care for our little ones on any future trips. Salud!”

“I had a sitter have to cancel super short notice and Daphne absolutely saved us! I have 3 very spoiled boy cats who are all in different stages of life (kitten - adult - senior) and she was able to follow specific instruction without issue. It was much easier relaxing on my trip knowing my boys where in good hands ☺️”
About: I've been called a dog whisperer too many times to count! I absolutely love dogs, cats, and other furry or feathered friends. I grew up with guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. I'm experienced in cage-cleaning, play time, giving medication, walking, and light training. I have pet-sat for several dogs, cats, and smaller friends. I highly respect any rules or training routines you and your fur babies adhere to. As long as I have clear instructions, I will stick to your guidelines.

I will love your pets like my own, but I will absolutely follow whatever expectations you set. I have flexible availability this summer.

You won't even know I was there!
“Shawnee did an amazing job taking care of my cats , they both were comfortable with her right away. She went out of her way to check on a problem we had with our automatic feeder, thankful for that. We received photos daily and updates on our cats. I’ll definitely book her again when we need someone to watch over our cats.”
“Shauna is a very good person to watch your fur babies. She played with Carl and loved on him every single visit! I highly recommend her for taking care of your furry friends!”
“I'm so happy I chose Sami. Sami sent me photos every day and never judged me for all the dust under the bed, and she took excellent care of Zoomy. I have another trip coming up in January and I will definitely rebook Sami.”
“We are glad we chose to have Heather care for our senior kitty this past weekend. Her approach to offering services through Rover was very professional. She did everything we asked, was attentive to his needs and sent lots of pictures and details about her visits with him. We plan to reach out to her for future sitter needs.”
About: Hi! I'm Shealee, and I've always loved cats. I know every cat has their own personality, so I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My love for animals led me to work as an Animal Care Attendant at an animal hospital that offered hospital care, daycare, plus boarding services. There, I cared for cats of all ages, personalities, plus comfort levels. My responsibilities included preparing meals, refreshing water, monitoring behavior, providing individual playtime, maintaining clean living spaces, plus making sure each cat was comfortable throughout the day. Working with so many different cats taught me that every feline is unique. Some love chasing toys or soaking up attention, while others simply appreciate a quiet presence that respects their space. No matter your cat's personality, I'll provide care that matches their individual needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your cat. I'll treat your furry family member like my own while sending regular updates plus photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your wonderful kitty!
“Ana accepted our request last minute and did a great job with our cats. She went above and beyond and even did an extra checkin with them and watered my plants. She even cleaned up after their mess which we didn’t require at all. I would definitely book Ana again for future visits!”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats of all ages and my own baby is over 4 years old now! I’m a huge cat lover who understands that every kitty has their own personality, boundaries, and routine. 🐱💖 Whether your cat is playful and social or more shy and independent, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for awhile you’re away.
“Alivia was great with our two golden retrievers! She did drop ins for us during the day while we were working. She brought our dogs toys and treats. Phoebe and Winston give this rover sitter a A++! We will definitely use Alivia in the future!”
“Benjamin did an amazing job taking care of my 18-year-old cat Buster. He went over and above with his care of Buster , who needs medication for thyroid twice a day. He spent time with him, sent me lots of pictures and kept me up-to-date with everything that was happening. I recommend him without any hesitation at all. Thank you, Benjamin.”
“Alyssa cared for our cat, Mocha, for two days and stayed overnight at our home. This was our first time leaving Mocha for an extended period and using a cat sitter, so we were a little nervous but Alyssa put our minds at ease. It was clear that Mocha was comfortable with her—she continued eating, playing, and sleeping normally throughout the weekend. She even seemed to enjoy some in-depth conversations with Alyssa! We received regular updates and photos, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Alyssa also left our home neat and tidy. Overall, she did a fantastic job caring for both Mocha and our house. We would book with Alyssa again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Kerri has been absolutely fantastic when looking after our kitties. She interacts so well with them and they warmed up to her so quickly which was great to see. The pictures she sent every day showed us that the cats had a wonderful person taking care of them with some brilliant action shots. Kerri was also very communicative and kept an eye on the weather to make sure we were aware of the cooler temperatures. She is an excellent person if you ever need your pets looked after while you are away.”
About: I specialize in caring for senior, sensitive, and formerly stray cats. I understand how important routine, consistency, and a calm environment are, and I prioritize communication and detailed updates so you feel completely at ease.

“Candace is a wonderful dog mom!! From the moment we met I knew Maizie would be in good hands. Candace is warm and nurturing but also aware of the mischief puppies can get into. She sent me lots of photos throughout the day and kept me updated on Maizie’s progress. Maizie had fun meeting the other animals around the farm. We are hoping to leave her for a longer time next time. I know Maizie is looking forward to seeing Candace-mom and her new big brother playmate, Wilbur again. She had a great time!”
“Ashley is just the best! Maizie came home happy and tired from “preschool.” She and Paco had fun playing together and walking around the block. Maizie was even comfortable enough to take a nap or two, and Maizie ate her food! That never happens! Ashley sent lots of photos and videos. When we return, I know Maizie will be happy to see her friends once again. Thank you for the great puppy care, Ashley!🤗”
“I scheduled a first visit to meet Shauna and make sure our pup was a good fit. Shauna is great at communicating. She messaged prior to the visit to confirm, and helped me understand the process when I booked. My pup was still a bit nervous, so I didn’t leave her there, but Shauna was very kind, and tried to help her feel comfortable.”
“Phillip is very communicative and flexible when it comes to scheduling pickup and dropping off. My puppy came back happy and tired(yay!). I will be booking again. Thanks Phillip!!!”

“Jennifer was so amazing to take my little girl in last minute on the 4th of July. My fiancé and I were visiting the area and needed a last minute sitter so we could enjoy some sights that dogs couldn’t join. I love my Elsa so much and was very nervous about leaving her but Jennifer kept me up to date with photos and everything! I am grateful she was available and willing to take her last minute. Thanks again so so much Jennifer!!”

From our first interaction, it was clear that she’s a natural with animals, and she went above and beyond to ensure Salem-Blue was comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

“Honestly I was very nervous to leave my 1 year old border collie with anyone but Sandra’s profile and meeting her in person made me feel good. Now my doggie sees her Mon-Friday and she just loves going! To the point that when we get close to her house she knows where she is going and starts to wag her tail and bounce around happily. She comes back home happy and healthy and you just know she is being treated good. I honestly can’t think of a better person to watch my dog than Sandra. We love her and appreciate all her hard work!”

“Astrid took great care of my pups and helped them be secure and happy while I was out of town. When I’m in town and she walks them, I can tell by the way they greet her what a big treat it is for them to spend time with her. I appreciate Astrid’s sensitivity and creativity and skill in interacting with my two dogs who are quite different from one another in energy level so that they both get their needs met for activity and exercise and affection.”

I take my time to understand what precautions I can take to keep all pets safe.
About: I grew up with three dogs in my house, and many more coming in and out. I have lots of experience with many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I got a COVID puppy in 2019, so I also have experience with training high energy pups! I truly love all animals and would love to help your family out where I can! I currently only work 3 days a week and have plenty of time in the evenings on those days. Other than that, I am free! In your home, I will follow all the rules you have in place while providing gentle, loving care for your animals! In my own home, keeping up with diet, exercise, and training is important for my pups.
About: Have 5+ dogs? Energetic kiddos that could benefit from mental stimulation? Couch potatoes that just want love and affection? All of the above? Whatever the case may be, you can rest assured that I will give your baby(ies) the best care and attention I have to give. I worked at a sanctuary for nearly two years and had the pleasure of working with a large pack of dogs. Working and caring for 50+ dogs at a time takes a different kind of attention and patience that definitely took time to learn, but I loved every second of it. I have experience with quite the variety of different dogs. From XS to XL, newborn to senior, fearful to aggressive, anxious to energetic, I’ve seen it all. I can also give medications if necessary, do a basic groom, and basic training. I’m also very comfortable with cats. Aside from having some myself for 8 years, I love learning about a new cat and understanding its habits/personality. I truly love all animals and creatures and am very open to helping care for any other pets you may have. Currently my only job is to be a dog & cat mom so my schedule is very flexible. Aside from recurring appointments that I attend, I’m open to working with what works best for you. I can work with any form of care that you give your babies. Every pet is unique and I can definitely switch gears depending on their personality and if they have specific needs.
About: I've always had a love for animals and have had an animal in my life since I was a child. They truly are a joy and are so sweet, smart, and intuitive! I don't currently have my own fur baby which makes Rover such a great experience. I enjoy meeting all the different and new friends. ;) Animals aren't just pets they are a part of the family and need the same love and care. When I care for your fur babies I always hope to provide a positive and loving experience for them while you're away. I’ve been with Rover and doing Animal care professionally for a little over two years. If you’re looking for a pet nanny to give some extra love and care I’m your gal! :) My schedule is very flexible as I am self employed. So this allows me to be available for extra love and all your pet care needs :) I know it can be a little nerve wracking for your pets or you as a pet owners to leave your pets (and home) alone especially with someone new! I hope to make a calm and joyful experience for your fur babies especially if they have separation anxiety. I can give as much love, care, and play time needed to soothe these moments. All animals are different and I like to cater to that. Getting a new babysitter can be off putting for anyone… haha I feel animals are more comfortable when they get to stay in their own environment instead of having to acclimate to new spaces and energy. During the stay I will provide lots of fun photo updates so you can stay up to date on all of our adventures and cuddle moments! I look forward to meeting your fur babies!

About: I was born and raised on a ranch caring for many types of animals. I have extended my background from cows, horses and sheep to training, breeding and so much more with dogs. I am respectful, patient and have an overall love for every animal! I am currently a stay at home mom and looking for other work when I stumbled upon Rover. I love animals and am very excited at the chance to be around them more! I have a fenced yard and my own dog as well who gets along great with everyone. I have crates if needed and a park very close to run some energy out!
About: I have fostered over fifty dogs and cats for the SPCA of Northern Nevada, and fostered my cat Chandler as a kitten before adopting him. I have an open schedule with a lot of daily availability and my own vehicle, and can assist with pet care on weekends and weekdays. I am patient and loving to all pets, and have a strong understanding of the needs of different breeds of dogs and cats at different life stages. I live with my partner who has a year of experience working at a dog day care with a variety of pups, and has volunteered with me as a cat socializer as well.

“Gayle was AMAZING with my fur babies. She was very good at communicating and giving updates and photos during their stay. My babies opened up so much while spending time with her and Sitka. She was very flexible and was able to keep them for an extra night when my plans changed last minute. We are very grateful to her for taking such good care of our pups and will gladly book with her again ?”
“Christina was easy to work with, very responsive and kept us updated the entire time she watched our cat, Gus! I would highly recommend and will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“If you need a sitter for your pet don't look for anyone else but Jade!! She made us feel at ease with our meet and greet and is very professional. We were nervous about leaving Maisie with someone but she started sending pictures and videos almost immediately and put us right at ease. We didn't worry the whole time we were gone. Jade is our go to sitter for Maisie from now on!!!!!”
“She took wonderful care of my dog, who can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, and handled her with patience and kindness. I received many photos showing my dog happy, comfortable, and enjoying time with her loving family, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was being treated like part of the family, not just being watched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their pet.”
“Best decision ever! We were nervous about leaving our two dogs with someone we did not know but with one getting older we didn’t want them to be in a kennel and not have interaction with others. We were gone over a week to Hawaii and I received regular updates and pictures. I could tell they were well cared for and having a great time. It was a good peace of mind being so far away. When we got home we could tell the dogs were happy and had a blast meeting their new friends. We love Nicole and we will definitely do this again next time.”
“Karlie was very flexible and easy to plan with. Her house is very dog friendly and her pup, Dresden, is a great playmate! Our dog didn’t care when we left at drop off because she was already having so much fun.”
“My beagle stayed with Madlin for 4 days, had an issue with another arrangement while I was out of town and Madlin was able to handle everything (picked up my dog and helped both my beagle's stress and my own with great communication). She was a life saver for me and my dog loved her, would recommend her to anyone in the Salem area.”
“Tienne did great with my dog, Sydney. She was really easy to work with and was very flexible and understanding. She is a Vet Tech which made me much more comfortable should any issues arise. I will definitely use Tienne in the future.”
“Kathrine is an AMAZING sitter! I went out of town for 5 days and left my pup with her at her home. I immediately felt comfortable leaving her there when I dropped her off. She sent pics, videos, and updated me on all things (eating, pooping, etc.). Her dog, Ophelia, was the sweetest companion and I could tell her and my dog were besties from the pics she sent! They went on multiple walks a day, and even a weekend adventure! I will definitely be using Kathrine again in the future!”
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”
“Mickenzie was flexible and easy to work with. She kept me updated on how my dog settled in and even helped me by carrying his crate out to my truck when I picked him up. Skerby seemed very happy hanging out at her house. Thank you, Mickenzie!”
“Philly was responsive and put me at ease for our first time using Rover. He communicated well and sent pics of Roscoe during our time away. I appreciate that he is the only dog while being boarded and he isn’t left alone much. We will book with Philly again.”
“Bailey had a great time staying with Dezarae at her home. I knew she was well taken care of and happy during her stay while I was on a trip. Dezarae gave me updates with photos and videos. Her own dogs got along well with Bailey. I will be using her again in the future. 🐶”
“Brodie had a great time during his stay with Tania. He got along well with her pooch(es), played hard and is now resting hard! Tania provided regular updates and gave Brodie the attention he needed to enjoy his stay!”
“Michael did a great job with Kermit. He is compassionate and contacted us with concerns. Kermit was treated like part of the family. Frequent photos were really appreciated.”
