They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”

I received daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Tony was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. 10/10!”

About: I have taken care of cats for over four years. I have volunteered at a shelter for the past five years in adoption events, as well as socializing, kittens, and cats taking care of food and dietary needs as well as social interactions with play. I also have a cat of my own, and therefore I’m familiar with food play and toileting needs. I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors cats for a total of one year. I cannot wait to meet and provide the best care to your beloved furry feline.
“Jennifer was such an amazing sitter for my furry babies. She took her time to ask questions and understand well how to care for them. The updates and pictures always were on point and left me feeling that my babies were in very caring and capable hands. Next time I will look for someone to look after my babies I will go for Jennifer.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and now have 2 of my own! I have a little tabby girl with some allergy health issues so I have experience with medicine and watching for flair ups! I also have a big Siberian boy so I am used to maintaining long hair cats! I am the first call when my friends with cats need a sitter!
About: I have been taking care a few cats for about 6-7 years now. I took care of two cats across the street from me and one up the street. I have experience playing with them, feeding them, cleaning up any messes whether it be accidents around the house, litter trails from litter boxes, or whatever other messes may occur. While I might have a bit more experience with dogs, I thoroughly enjoy cats as well.
“Hailey was amazing with my two cats! From the photos she shared, I could tell that they were completely happy and comfortable with her. She sent detailed reports and lots of photos, which gave me peace of mind that the kitties were doing well while I was away. Thank you, Hailey!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life! From chihuahuas to border collies, I’ve had experience raising and taking care of all sizes of animal. I have a pretty open availability, so I would be able to give your animals the utmost attention when needed! Weekends are just as good for me as the weekdays! Having had animals my whole life, I understand how to maintain a clean environment while working with them. I am perfectly fine and comfortable with cleaning up after your animals if need be.
“Allegra was absolutely wonderful with our two senior dogs! She gave them the extra care and attention they needed, and her beautifully written, detailed report cards gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after — we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!”
About: I have a short haired calico named Coco and have many friends with cats that I get to hang out with. When I adopted Coco 5 years ago she was a terrified stray who didn’t know how to accept love. Now she’s the most spoiled little princess and can never get enough butt pats and head scritches. Litter box cleaning, giving wet food treat tubes and meals, and playing with your cat/s in whatever their preferred way is would be my joy!
“Isabel did an amazing job watching my cat Gio for the week. She was attentive & communicative. I really appreciated the regular photo updates as it gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well while I was away. She was also very responsive and easy to coordinate with from start to finish. I’d absolutely trust her to watch Gio again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. First time using Rover and was super happy with how it all went.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ashton
“Edith is your dream sitter. She posts daily photos and updates of your pet. She obviously loves what she does. She is a lovely soul and my Mimi, who can be shy, had her tail up in the photos which made me feel reassured that she was in a safe, loving environment.”
“Lindsey was great! Super professional with a nice open yard setup for our pup. She was extremely prepared, clean, and fantastic with communication. Our pup seemed happy as a clam when we picked him up! 10/10, highly recommend”
“Julie did great job making me and my dog Stella Watson very comfortable from meet and greet thru 1st daycare visit. Stella had wonderful time playing with Zilla and zooming around the yard and house. Will be hoping to visit again soon!”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with Marley’s experience with Joyce. Joyce was very good about sending photos that really reassured us that Marley was getting along nicely. Marley was so well-cared for and had such a good time! In fact, Marley laid down outside the car, as we tried to leave, as if to say, “Aw gee, do we have to go home already?””

I enjoy spending my time with furry friends. I'm a in-home caregiver to my mom so I have lots of time to take care of your pet.

I have a long line for when your pet is outside and lots of patio seating to supervise and play with your pet the whole time. I also have a crate for indoor use.
“Jenny and Darin were great! They provided updates throughout the day and took great care of our slightly anxious puppy :) Will definitely book with them again!”
“Holly was very receptive to caring for our dog on short notice when we had to be in Madison for a family member’s hospitalization. The home, fenced in yard, companionship of their dog Mocha was wonderful for our little guy. I could tell he was exercised and loved while in her care.”
“Kristin and Bruce provided exceptional daycare services. My senior dog initially had anxiety being in a different home. Kristen and Bruce were very attentive and made her feel comfortable.”
“Our dog Halla is a rescue dog and he is very scared and nervous around new people. Robert has watched him few times and I am grateful that he understands that Halla needs time and space to get to know him. I am sure Halla will be in good hands when our family goes on a vacation this summer.”
“Elena was my first Rover experience—she really exceeded my expectations! She sent status updates and pictures throughout my pup’s visit, and he really enjoyed playtime with the other dogs. I definitely would love to bring my dog back the next time I need someone to watch him. Thanks so much for making it great for us!”

I tailor my care to each pet’s needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in your home.
“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”
“I’m so thankful to have Allegra as a dog walker- she is a rock star! I feel so safe with her care with the dogs, and she always has great feedback after every walk.”
About: I have 3 years of hands-on pet care experience and I’m also a husky owner, so I understand how important patience, exercise, and attention are for every dog. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime, basic grooming, and keeping pets on their normal routine. I’m gentle, responsible, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for.

“Donna took such good care of my 4-month old puppy and even sent photos to show me he was happy and having fun! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so grateful to Donna for making this a great experience. I highly recommend her.”
About: For the past 8 years, I have been pet sitting for various friends, families, and neighbors. This has included taking care of dogs and cats, making sure their well-being is taken care of. I have experience walking dogs and making sure they are mentally stimulated throughout the day. I have also had experience with cleaning up any potential messes the pet might have made in absence of me or the owner. Currently, I work as a server while on summer break from college. My schedule at work is pretty flexible and I don't typically work whole days, so for the most part I am free on days I work except for 4-5 hours at the max. Other than that, the days I have off will be cleared and dedicated to the animal I am watching when I am scheduled. Whenever I watch an animal in another home, I always make a short sweep through the house wherever the animal has access to in order to ensure no messes were made. Whenever I leave, whether for a walk or for an extended period of time, I double check to make sure that the house is locked up and secure through any means of entrance. I am available for regular correspondence with owners and reply in a timely manner.
“This was the second time working with Brenda. She did a great job again. I received updates and pictures with every walk/ visit and medication was administered according to instruction.”

I’ll also share regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
“I cannot say enough positive things about Gen. Our Gemma is a bit of a butthead and Gen handled her with ease. But she also did it with the gentle care of someone who is in charge. She knows what she is doing. I could learn a thing or two from Gen. Gemma is looking forward to more walks with Gen!”
“Aliyah responded very quickly to my request for dog walking while I couldn't get my 2 large fur babies out. She was kind, quick to bond with them, lovely to chat with and although it was a splurge for me it definitely feels worth it. The dogs liked her immediately, which isn't always the case with our oldest, more shy Sheepadoodle. As I write this, they are spread out on the floor tired, so goal met. I'll definitely ask for Aliyah's help again.”
