1. Taylor H.

“Taylor is amazing! She helped us out in a pinch, dealt with a fiasco bc our other sitter left a dog out of the crate and cleaned up the shredded dog bed. She went above and beyond and saved the day for us after our flight home from vacation was delayed.”


2. Emma F.

“Emma was amazing! She took care of my cat so well. This was my first time leaving her alone and she made me feel so much better. She was so communicative and kind and I feel so grateful to have found her.”


3. mia b.
“Mia took care of my dog that I rescued so I didn’t want him alone. He was very skittish and sky and Mia got him to come out of his shell just by talking to him and moving slow with him. I will forever for as long as I have my sweet boy allow her to care for him. And recommend her to others!”

“2nd time checked on Elle for me! I can tell from Elle's facial expressions, that she has really warmed up to Misty in such a short time. Definitely see what she can do if you need someone to check on your furry kids!”

7. Esther K.

“Esther made using Rover for the first time incredibly easy. She was able to come by my house to take care of my cat, while I was out of town. Esther sent pictures and was easy to contact throughout the entire process. I definitely plan to contact her in the future and recommend that you do, as well!”

You are gifted and talented with arts and caring pets. Wish you all the best.”

13. Alyssa F.

“Alyssa is wonderful with our dogs. She always sends me pictures and videos when she checks in on them and lets me know who ate, who went to the bathroom and what kind of antics they got into;) I have 3 dogs and one is a young rescue that Alyssa knew before we did! She treats our dogs as if they were her own and she’s always so respectful of my notes and our home is always the way we left it. Thanks Alyssa for peace of mind when we need a getaway❤️”

16. Sarah F.
“Sarah would be an amazing pet caregiver because she is one of the most responsible and caring people I know. She works harder than anyone else I've ever met and she gives everything she does 110%. Sarah has an amazing ability to multitask and knows how to manage her time and priorities. She is currently in vet school and has a lot of experience working hands on with animals of all kinds. She cares so much for animals and I know she would take extra care for the animals she is responsible for.”


17. Andrea B.

“Everything went wonderfully with Andrea! My kitty Lorenzo had the best time playing with her and telling her all of his stories. Andrea was respectful of my Henry's need for space and just a glance in his direction occasionally. Andrea was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures of my boys while I was away.”


18. Kailyn S.
About: I’m 21 and have had pets all my life. From dogs to cats to fish. I loved growing up with pets! Recently I started dog sitting for a family friend’s friend. Started off as a weekend, now they call me everything they go out of town I’m currently working full-time. I’m fully available on the weekends. I’m available in the mornings and evenings the most, but if I’m needed in the afternoon, I am always available on my lunch break! I’m a pet lover! I love pets of all kinds (except for snakes😂). I’ve always had family pets, but I just moved out and got my very own kitten. I play with her all the time and even give her play dates every once and a while


19. Caroline F.
About: I've been surrounded by my own dogs and cats since I was born, both big and small. I grew up pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. I have experience with animals of ages, breeds, and temperaments. I have plenty of experience giving medicine, training, walking, and playing. I work full time, my availability is as follows: Monday - Thursday mornings: 5-6 am Monday - Thursday afternoons: 5-9pm Fri, Sat Sun: Anytime I'm available any time on the weekends, I’m flexible! I will do whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable, active, and happy while you're away or they're in my care. I grew up in a house that treated animals like a member of the family (sometimes better), and I will do the same for your pet.
