About: I have experience with taking care of my sister’s two dogs. Taking them on walks, giving them attention, and lots of love. I used to house sit my friend’s dogs when I was in high school I am available during the week and on the weekends, time is very negotiable but my schedule is also flexible, I just need to factor in travel on public transportation. I have a cat tree in my home for my cats, and lots of toys t bat around. The cats usually cuddle with me on the chairs, I feed and water them twice a day and pet and love them frequently
“Titi Angie was great and extremely professional. We had her house sit Ralphie while we were out of the country and she was super responsive and communicative. Ralphie was super happy and took to her quickly, we felt so at ease with her taking care of Ralphie.”
“Mandel was an amazing house and pet sitter for us, even taking care of all of our plants! I would highly recommend Mandel to anyone with anxiety about leaving your pets. We were updated several times a day about our babies, and were so at ease knowing they were well taken care of.”
“Keoma was great with my cats! Keoma gave me updates, played with them and overall gave my kitkats good care while I was away! I appreciate the help and recommend her services!!”
About: Fun fact: my profile picture is of me and Panda 🐼, the first fur baby I ever took care of for a family friend when I was 12! I am someone who has always grown up around animals including dogs, cats, turtles, and birds. I’ve always had a desire to take care of them, so much that at one point I wanted to go to veterinary school. Although I decided to switch to nursing, being able to take care of the adoring pets of others is something that I’d love to keep as my hobby. I’ll make sure to love your pet the same way I loved the ones I grew up with. All in all, I get to distress from school, and they can get all the cuddles and play in the world. It’s a win win! I’ll also make sure to keep you updated with pictures and videos so you can rest assured that they’ll be in good hands :) I am currently a full-time nursing student, with all of my classes being on Tuesdays. Besides that, I am available any other day of the week :) I also speak Spanish! When caring for your pet in your home, my top priorities are safety, respect, and consistency. I treat your space with the same care and cleanliness I’d expect in mine, and I make sure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment. I will carefully follow your instructions, stick to your pet’s routine, and pay close attention to their behavior and needs. Whether it’s feedings, litter box cleaning, going for a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m reliable, gentle, and always respectful of your home and your pet’s well-being. You can relax knowing they’re in trustworthy, experienced hands.
About: Im currently a college student and I love animals. I'm a dog lover, I am very patient and can tolerate and love any type of dog, every dog has their own personality and I respect that. Time management is one of my skills, I'm responsible, your dog will be provided with the care she/he needs, your dog/puppy will be in great hands. I know how important your best friend is, which is why I'll make sure to give you updates as frequent as possible about how your doggie is doing. I have a flexible schedule. Don't worry about weekends! Those are the best days for me. I will also be sure to follow any special instruction your pet may need. I can't wait to spread the love and care with your pets!
“My dog loved Camille! She clearly loves animals and has a positive energy that helped to relax my anxious dog. She was communicative and helpful during the sit. I would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
“Marisa R. was spectacular! We recommend Marisa to any family looking for someone to watch their pet and/or house. She met with us prior to watching our dog to find out all about him. When it came time to watch him, she followed his routine as described and sent us photos of all of the fun they had together. We felt so grateful to Marisa knowing that our dog was so well cared for while we were away. Thank you, Marisa!”
“Isabel was fantastic with our pup while we were away. She was communicative, attentive, and clearly took great care of him. The regular updates gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“Second time of many having Chris help us out with our puppy! We booked him for house sitting while we enjoyed a night off. We always have peace of mind having him puppy sit knowing he can handle all the energy our pup throws at him.”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with several years of experience both pet sitting and working in an animal hospital as a veterinary assistant. Through my work, I’ve gained hands-on experience handling dogs and cats of all temperaments, supporting their care, and becoming familiar with recognizing when something may be off. At the same time, my approach to pet sitting is always centered around making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their home environment. I’m also a pet owner to my 11-year-old girl, so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, care, and lots of love. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly routine. I currently work as a veterinary assistant, so I am already around animals regularly and used to maintaining consistent care schedules. Outside of work, I plan my availability around pet sitting bookings to ensure I can give each pet the time and attention they need. This includes morning and evening visits, walks, feeding schedules, and check-ins depending on the pet’s routine. Because I’m also a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already built into my daily life. I’m used to early mornings, structured feeding times, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I’m very intentional about only accepting bookings I can fully commit to, so each pet receives reliable, attentive care. When I arrive, I follow all instructions exactly as provided to maintain your pet’s normal routine and comfort. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and that litter boxes or walking needs are taken care of promptly. During each visit, I also spend time engaging with your pet based on their personality—whether that’s playtime, companionship, or giving them space if they are more independent. I keep your home clean, organized, and secure while I’m there, and I always double-check doors, gates, and any safety instructions before leaving. I also provide updates so you can feel confident knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Kier is great. We met up for a short walk day before so he and Buddy could get acquainted, and Buddy took to him right away. He’s mellow, friendly, and professional, and I will definitely book him again.”
About: I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with experience taking care of dogs of different personalities and needs. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel comfortable and confident while they are away. I provide safe, loving, and attentive walks while making sure pets feel happy, calm, and cared for. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and committed to following each pet’s routine and needs carefully. I also have experience caring for my own dog, Milo, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Your pet will be treated with love, patience, and responsibility at all times. I have a flexible routine and enjoy spending time with pets daily. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and naturally fits into my schedule. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment while following each pet’s routine and needs carefully. I make sure pets feel comfortable, get enough exercise, attention, fresh water, and care during every visit or walk.
“Tedy was absolutely exceptional at house and cat sitting during my first trip in several years. Both cats instantly fell in love with her, she kept my home tidy, and really made me feel safe and assured knowing they were safe and loved in her hands. Tedy is now a friend and the sitter I will rely on forever, she’s amazing.”

Utopia pet parents share their Rover experiences
Camille was absolutely wonderful with my puppy! From the moment they met, it was clear she has a natural gift with dogs, and she provided the perfect balance of playful energy and attentive care. She kept me updated the entire time, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. I couldn't have asked for a better, more trustworthy sitter, and my pup can't wait to see her again!
Kenine went above and beyond at the last minute for my rescue pup who is still decompressing from the shelter and learning manners. Kenine provided last minute coverage and reviewed and enforced 1000 details to help my pup feel safe and secure. She handled his needs on walks, with medication, a special diet, and his behaviors that we are working on. Grateful for Kenine’s patience, skill and support and highly recommend her services. Thank you, Kenine!
Cassidy is simply the BEST! This was the second time we used her. This time she stayed in our home, taking care of our two dogs for two weeks! She adores dogs, she’s responsible, sends updates, left the house spotless and best of all our dogs love her!! One of our dogs has anxiety, and she handles him perfectly. Cassidy should be everyone’s go to girl ❤️
Nouni took great care of my two pups at our home while we were away. She was very responsive to our texts and had no issues administering my boy Lino’s daily eye medication. They enjoyed their walks, and even though there was snow everywhere, they were walked daily, fed properly, and had a great time with her👏🏽 Definitely recommend her!
Regina was such a thoughtful, caring, and attentive sitter for our two cats. She sent pictures and video clips every day, and let us video call them when she could sense they missed us. She was considerate and kind, and I loved that she created a genuine connection with our babies, so much so that she will miss them. I highly recommend working with Regina. Thank you for making our week-long vacation worry-free!
Sidney was the BEST petsitter!! She was super communicative and sent us detailed summaries of her day with the pets with lots of photos. She easily put up with Bobby and Millie's little quirks and they seemed to warm to her very quickly. We did not feel like we needed to worry at all while we were on vacation and could totally relax. I would rebook Sidney in a heartbeat!! Thanks again Sidney
Tracey did an incredible job taking care of our kitten, Poppy. She sent over frequent updates, including pictures and videos daily! She also was very understanding when Poppy had an accident, and we came home to a spotless apartment. We’d highly recommend booking Tracey for taking care of your cat!
