“Even though my request was last minute, Sonja and Phil were kind enough to accept and take care of Leo. I could tell Leo was well cared for and in good hands while I was away. I really appreciated their flexibility and willingness to help on such short notice. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend”
“Connie is the ONLY sitter we trust with our furbabies. She has watched our two large breed dogs for some time and our dogs are always happy to go to her home and always leave tired and happy. I always appreciate her updates. She is the best. Plain and simple :) We never have to worry about our doggos when we are on vacation. It’s such a relief to have her in our lives. Thank you Connie!!!”

“So grateful we found Lorena and rover.com!! Our dog seemed to be super happy and right at home at Lorenas. Loved all the pics Lorena sent. We can't wait to use her again next month!:)”
“Hannah was the best choice for Luna’s first staycation! She was super friendly, asked all the important questions and you can tell in the way she interacts with your pet, that she really cares for animals! Her communication and updates were top tier, her responses were quick and she made this process easy for a first time Rover user (aka me). I definitely plan to use Hannah for Luna’s future care!”

“Victoria always does a fantastic job taking care of our cat, Charlie! She sends us lots of pics and always follows all instructions! By the pics, you can tell he’s very happy and loves seeing her! We’ve used her multiple times and will continue to!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats in the past that are a bit skittish and weary of strangers but, with time and patience, grew to like me and be friendly. I have a cat as well who can be sassy at times but very affectionate other times. I’ve learned his body language of when he wants to be loved on and when he wants personal space.
“TOP ENDORSEMENT: Pet care is Kimberly's career. This dedication & training are evident in her professional in-person demeanor and ease with animals. Kimberly sat my two male, semi-feral cats for a week and I couldn't be happier with her care. Food, water, and litterbox cleaning was EXACTLY as I asked. The aloof, don't-touch-me cat now adores her. She was even kind enough to water my money tree and stack my mail. Her expertise and depth of experience enabled me to travel completely WORRY FREE. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth is an amazing Rover! She cared for our senior cat and provided compassionate care. She was very responsible and followed all instructions perfectly. She sent us daily photos and updates. We came home to a very happy cat and everything was left neat and orderly. We appreciate you Elizabeth! Thank you so much! 🐈”
“Alexandria was wonderful with our animals! Even the mean cat seemed to like her, which is pretty rare. Yoshi was very excited to see her when she came for their visits. All animals had full water and food when we got back, my spiteful cat hadn’t broken anything out of boredom or spite from being left behind (he hates having us leave for king periods of time)”
About: Hey! I’m Kaitlynn, I have 7 years of experience with animals. I was on rover a few years ago for 5-6 years and took a break after I had kids. I have worked with a travel vet for 2 years (before kids) and dog grooming! My love for animals hasn’t changed, I’m recently new to Rover again because I love working with animals and would love to start to get out there again. I give updates often and will have plenty of photos to share with you! My dogs are super friendly to all animals as they lived on a farm before. I’m hoping to help families while providing for mine:) Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I own my own business and work for myself, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize animals throughout the day. I can easily build my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins without rushing or being tied to a strict 9–5 job. Caring for pets blends perfectly with my active, hands-on lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my routine while I manage my business responsibilities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and any feeding or medication schedules are followed closely. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who are very social and do well with other animals, which can be great for pets that enjoy companionship. In a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I respect their space, keep everything clean and consistent, and make sure pets receive the same level of care, love, and attention they would get from their owner.
About: I don’t just pop in and feed your cat, I learn their rules for their space, respect their space, and keep their routine locked in so they stay caml and collected while you’re away. Whether they’re shy, clingy, or a tiny menace, I adjust. I notice the small stuff, keep things clean, and send real updates. Medications, special diets, multi-cat drama, surprise hairballs, I adapt and love all the quirks. I earn trust on their terms, fully on cat time. I work for your cat while im in your home. They may run a tight ship but im up to the task! Hired by you, approved by them!
“Working with Amber was a snap. She responded quickly to a last minute request, was up front when a schedule change was needed, and helped look in on my cat even when the weather was terrible.”
About: I have always had a soft spot for animals. I began working in the medical field but realized my heart was in the place to care for animals instead. I have my own "misfit farm" of unwanted animals and in my down time I am taking on dog walking/pet sitting. I am knowledgeable in many animals including dogs, cats birds, small animals, exotics and farm animals. I currently own a Great Pyrenees, Can Corso, Miniature dachshund, a cat plus 3 rescue goats, bunnies and a ton of chickens. I can also help with basic training and using an E collar. Medications or special needs animals is also something I am comfortable with. I do have kids who love to go on walks with me when I am dog walking, but it is not necessary for them to come with . My dog sitting calendar is filling up quickly! At this moment I am boarding dogs on a case by case basis so just reach out and we can chat! I am available for house sitting, however cannot accommodate regular overnight stays but can accommodate frequent and lengthy visits. I am a mom to 3, but am pretty much open and available for your needs. Hanging out with animals is a strong passion of mine and I often use the extra cash to do things with my kids. I cannot accommodate overnights in my house sitting but can offer lengthy and frequent visits I am available for walking, feeding, caring, loving and walking your babies of whatever species and breed. I am extremely responsible and comfortable with administering medication if need be and am very cautious when it comes to walking or letting the animal outside or when it comes to rules you have for your pet. There is very little I wouldn't be able to do, so little I can't even think of one at the moment. You can trust that I will love and care for your animals like they were my own. I can even show you pictures and videos of my very spoiled pets for reference!

About: My name is Mallorie. I'm a mom. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends. I have a Alaskan Malamute. Her name is Carly Rae. I've also adopted five stray cats. They showed up on my door step, and since then I've been taking care of them. Some of my hobbies are, hiking, camping, and swimming. My dog loves hiking with me. I'm excited to get to know your pet and care for them! 🐕 Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. An act as simple as refilling their food bowl at the same time every day is enough to make them feel comfortable in their living space. Proper pet care includes providing a safe and comfortable area. Frequency with letting out to use the bathroom. Making sure that your pet gets regular exercise, such as walks and play time.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I have cared for them when they have been at there very best and worst and given them the most love. I’m currently a senior in high school but I only go for a couple hours a day. I also work part time at before and after care. I’m mostly looking for times to fill in during my free time, including during break and over the summer. I will make sure that everything thing is safe in the area for that pet. And they have everything they need during my time with them.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. My family and I are dog lovers but are not ready to own one so we are able to provide your pet with undivided attention and care. I work from home full time so I have the ability to care for your pet and let them outside frequently whenever they wanted it. I have a fenced in huge yard with plenty of space for your dog to run and play. My children are 5 and 7 and would entertain your pet with plenty of play and cuddles.
“This was our first time using the Rover app for our babies. At first I was nervous but once we meet Phillip that changed. Phillip was so welcoming and took really good care of our babies for the day. Phillip I want to thank you for caring for our babies you did an amazing job. We will definitely be booking with you again. See you soon!”
“Chris was very patient, flexible, accommodating, and understanding. We had last minute plans and needed someone to look after our Saint Bernard. We did a meet and greet and a daycare session to get her comfortable before we leave and he did a great job!”
“I was so happy to find this sitter! We just adopted a rescue dog. He has a lot of anxiety. He needs special care while he is adjusting to his new home. Because of his anxiety he needs a low stimulation environment. She has been so good working with my dogs special needs! I can’t say enough good about her!! We are so grateful for the care she has given our dog!!”

“Yeny was kind enough to do a list minute Day Care for us on our Anniversary. Easy drop off and pick up. She was walking her as we arrived to pick up and passed them..! She seemed happy and exercised. The whole family seems to participate in the care of the animals. Yeny took the time to hand feed her a bit at her first dinner away from home to get her started. She took to the time to talk about her day with our pup before we left. It seems to be a caring environment. We will definitely use her again.”
“Connie is the best caretaker I’ve ever worked with! She is very knowledgeable and my puppy was in perfect care throughout the week. I really appreciate her professionalism and her accommodations for my dog.”
About: I absolutely adore animals. I have four children who are also huge animal lovers so if you board with us in home your pet will be absolutely doted on. Pet parents will be hard pressed to find a family that will take better care of your pet or give them as much love and attention. I love being outside and going on long walks and would love to accompany your dog on their daily walk. We have a tremendous amount of time to play with your pet, take them on walks, and give them the attention they not only require but also deserve. We have a decent sized fenced in yard which is perfect for lots of play time! We are very attentive to animals and have experience giving medication including shots.
About: Hi there! I’m a caring and reliable dog sitter who truly enjoys getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, including those who are shy or anxious, and I always take a calm, patient approach so they can feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. With anxious dogs especially, I focus on creating a gentle, low-pressure environment by slow introductions, calm energy, and routines that help build trust over time. I pay close attention to body language and adjust to whatever each dog needs in the moment, whether that’s space, reassurance, or a quiet walk. I also make sure to follow all care instructions closely and keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is to be someone you and your dog feel completely comfortable with, like a trusted friend who shows up and cares every time. All dogs need to be current on their vaccinations (including bordatella) and flea/tick preventative. Please provide a screenshot of their most recent shots through the Rover app. I currently do NOT take more than 1 pup at a time unless the client requesting themselves has 2 pups that need taking care of! PLEASE NOTE: If you plan on booking for extended stay, our price is $40 a night for 5 days. I'm currently not employed so your pet will be attended to at all day! Any accommodation you need for them, I can surely provide at any time. I have a fenced yard and currently no other pets in the house, meaning your pet will have 100% of our time and attention so they don't feel out of place!

About: Been taking care of pets since I was in Highschool. It was always a fun way to get my pet fix since we didn’t have any growing up! Stay at home mom of 3 young boys so I’m always home. This will give us a new purpose during the day which is much needed. It will also give me the chance to spend time with all these sweet animals instead of trying to own a million of them myself 😂 A bonus of booking with me is your pet will get lots of one on one attention as this is not like your average corporate kennel. We provide a cozy environment within our home. Your animals will get all the love and attention all the while getting treated as one of our own🤍 I am trying to put my sweet boys through private school and thought this would be an awesome way to do so since it’s something me and my whole family will love! Big animal lovers over here:) We will provide a loving home with a big fenced in back yard for all to play. Can’t wait to love on and help take care of/entertain your fur babies!

Over the years, family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they’re away.

Our two cats are very friendly and comfortable around other animals. I’m also able to accommodate crating if needed and can care for multiple pets when appropriate.

Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats all my life and have always had pets since I was a kid. I’m really friendly with my friends’ pets and sometimes I’m more excited to see their pets than them😂. I’ve watched over some of my friends’ pets from time to time (cats and dogs). I have experience with both small dogs and large dogs as my one dog is a miniature dachshund, and my other is a Great Dane/German Shepherd Mix. I’m home from college so I’m free most of the day to care for pets whether it’s a walk, visit, to play, etc. I will be moving back to Richmond for college August 15th! I have family at home to watch my own pets so I can stop by and visit whenever if it’s at a reasonable time. I’m fairly perceptive of pet moods and, especially with cats, can tell when pets wanna be left alone or want to play. My pets all have different personalities so I can adapt fairly well to different personalities. I let pets out regularly and am down to play if they’re bored.
About: Hi! Taking care of animals has always been an enjoyment of mine. From helping lost or hurt animals to watching over pets, I'm always willing to take care of any animal. I regularly take care of stray cats and even took in a young pregnant one who needed the help. This resulted in me now having a bunch of kitties, they are all such sweethearts with their own personalities that I can't imagine life without them! I've also been dog sitting on and off for my neighbors and friends since I was 15, I have been the go to pet sitter for many in my circle these last few years. I pay special attention to their needs and make sure to follow any specific instructions given. I am more familiar with taking care of cats and dogs but I am open to looking after any animal! I adore all kinds As of right now I do work, my work schedule is slightly different each week, so a little flexibility might be needed to figure out the perfect time range for me to drop by and check on your pet!! I care for pets in my clients home by following any instructions given when it comes to the pets needs. I stay with them for as long as I can, giving them utmost attention and play time. I feed them on schedule and I am also able to give any oral medications as needed. I will do my very best to make sure your pet is happy and feels loved while you are away!
“Tonie was incredible! She responded super quickly to my last minute dog walking request and treated my puppy with much care. She was also super communicative and I’ll be asking her to look after him again :)”
About: Hi! My name is Lessette. My fiancée and I Dustin have been caring for dogs for as long as we can remember, we truly adore all animals. While I’m new to the Rover app, I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and treat every pup as if they were my own. We are open to onboarding dogs and currently have two of our own: Tank, a 3-year-old French Bulldog, and Beau, a 1-year-old Bernedoodle. We’ve had our dogs since they were puppies and have trained them to be well-mannered, social, and comfortable around other dogs in a variety of settings. Please make sure your pup is fully vaccinated, potty trained (for the most part, we understand accidents may happen: especially in a new environment), non-aggressive, and comfortable around other dogs! We provide a loving, structured, and fun environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. I’m more than happy to take your pup to the dog park (with approval) and can also help with transportation to and from vet visits or appointments as needed.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I have cared for them when they have been at there very best and worst and given them the most love. I’m currently a senior in high school but I only go for a couple hours a day. I also work part time at before and after care. I’m mostly looking for times to fill in during my free time, including during break and over the summer. I will make sure that everything thing is safe in the area for that pet. And they have everything they need during my time with them.

Have 2 dogs and a cat myself. Love being outdoors especially with dogs. Good with all sized dogs used to walking bigger dogs around 100 pounds. Experienced with scared dogs and have been bitten plenty of times. Experienced with dogs with medications. Good at walking multiple dogs at once 8 at the most.

About: I have always had a soft spot for animals. I began working in the medical field but realized my heart was in the place to care for animals instead. I have my own "misfit farm" of unwanted animals and in my down time I am taking on dog walking/pet sitting. I am knowledgeable in many animals including dogs, cats birds, small animals, exotics and farm animals. I currently own a Great Pyrenees, Can Corso, Miniature dachshund, a cat plus 3 rescue goats, bunnies and a ton of chickens. I can also help with basic training and using an E collar. Medications or special needs animals is also something I am comfortable with. I do have kids who love to go on walks with me when I am dog walking, but it is not necessary for them to come with . My dog sitting calendar is filling up quickly! At this moment I am boarding dogs on a case by case basis so just reach out and we can chat! I am available for house sitting, however cannot accommodate regular overnight stays but can accommodate frequent and lengthy visits. I am a mom to 3, but am pretty much open and available for your needs. Hanging out with animals is a strong passion of mine and I often use the extra cash to do things with my kids. I cannot accommodate overnights in my house sitting but can offer lengthy and frequent visits I am available for walking, feeding, caring, loving and walking your babies of whatever species and breed. I am extremely responsible and comfortable with administering medication if need be and am very cautious when it comes to walking or letting the animal outside or when it comes to rules you have for your pet. There is very little I wouldn't be able to do, so little I can't even think of one at the moment. You can trust that I will love and care for your animals like they were my own. I can even show you pictures and videos of my very spoiled pets for reference!
About: I've had dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, and fish throughout my life. Love animals! I often pet sit for family and friends, as well as, have two cats of my own. Clean background as I work in foster care. I can promise I will love on your pet as if it's my own. Part time availability nights and weekends, overnights at times. Looking to earn supplemental income and love on some animals while doing so. Reliable and trustworthy. I will walk your pets as needed, give medication and care for them, as if they were my own. I'm willing to stay overnight once comfortable with the pet and owner.

“Even though my request was last minute, Sonja and Phil were kind enough to accept and take care of Leo. I could tell Leo was well cared for and in good hands while I was away. I really appreciated their flexibility and willingness to help on such short notice. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend”

Thank you Connie!!!”
