“I can’t recommend Yajahyra enough! She took such amazing care of my cat while I was away—thoughtful, reliable, and clearly a true animal lover. She sent regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and a spotless space. Truly the best experience I’ve had with a sitter!”
“Shelby took amazing care of our border collie when we needed her. She was punctual, attentive, calm, and our border collie loved her. We feel very comfortable having her in our home and taking care of our dog, Maverick. We will definitely be reaching out Shelby next time we need someone :)”
“Alex did a wonderful job watching my kittens for the week while I was out of town! I got lots of photos and updates and I had the most relaxing stress free trip knowing they were taken care of!!”
“Bruno has been AMAZING!!! Our trip has been so much easier to enjoy knowing that our sassy little cat has been taken care of. She’s an indoor/outdoor cat, so we weren’t sure if she’d even be there or interact with him, but she played and seemed completely comfortable with him in our home. The thorough updates , pictures and videos have been awesome. We will definitely re-hire and recommend Bruno to friends and family.”
“Misty was such a wonderful pet sitter! She took warm and thoughtful care of our cats, and was so kind and considerate when any small concern popped up. Even our more timid cat warmed to her, and we felt so comfortable while we were away. We would definitely book with Misty again in the future 😊”
“Charlene was amazing! We had to book a bit short notice and she was so accommodating. She took great care of our dog Jake, visiting him multiple times a day to make sure he was well cared for. We received pictures and updates daily. She even went out of her way to assist us after I realized I locked myself out of my house after our meet and greet and hand off of my house key. I highly recommend her. It was nice to be able to leaven knowing our pet and home where in trustworthy and reliable hands.”
“We are a repeat customer of Paris'. We adore her and trust her with the well being of our beloved 4 (and 3) legged family members. She is commutative, prompt, and so loving and responsible with our dogs. Highly recommend her services!”
“My husband and I moved several times since we rescued our 15-year-old cat named Tea. She was very abused when we got her and after long time, she became happy and safe with us. We would rarely travel because we did not want to leave her. She is a very temperamental cat. She does not like strangers. When Emily came over to meet us, Tea went right up to her which never happened before. It was quite shocking. We hired Emily on the spot. We were not disappointed. Emily visited Tea 2 times a day. She provided 6 to 9 pictures after each visit with a detailed report. She even petted Tea which we never saw anyone do. When we came home, Tea was pleasant and happy. We now call Emily the cat whisperer. Emily has a tremendously warm way with cats. She also helped with watering plants and handled a little ant issue that was completely cleared up by the time we got home. We have already booked Emily for another trip we are taking. Please seriously consider Emily, the cat whisperer, for your animal caring needs.”
“Claudia was amazing! She is very friendly, responds to messages quickly and was super flexible when my pet sitting needs changed over Christmas weekend. Definitely will use her services again in the future and recommend her to anyone looking to hire a pet sitter.”
“Sydney did a wonderful job taking care of our two pups! She communicated everytime she came over and completed a report card. She spent extra time with our younger puppy to make sure she had her full exercise. We will definitely use her again when we need a sitter!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog mom with two amazing Chihuahuas—one is 15 and the other is 3. Caring for them every day has taught me the importance of love, patience, and attention through every stage of life, from energetic puppy days to senior dog care. I don’t just watch pets—I treat them like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Part-time dog mom with a senior and a young pup, available mornings and weekends. I bring patience, love, and care to pets of all ages. I follow your instructions carefully to keep your pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I maintain their routines, give fresh food and water, go on walks, play, clean up after them, and provide companionship. I also send regular updates with photos, so you feel reassured while you’re away.
“Colette did a great job taking care of my cat Cooper. He warmed up to her and she was able to give him his medicine (which isn’t always an easy feat). She’s vey dependable and responsible. Would highly recommend her.”
“Rachelle was great! I recd pictures and daily updates, even when she was on the way. This was my 1st experience with rover and I was extremely pleased with the service, I will definitely book Rachelle again as she went above and beyond!”
“Vanessa was amazing with my shy kitty!! Summer usually takes a long time to open up to new people but she loved Vanessa right away :’) highly recommend this sweet and responsible sitter!!”
About: Been taking care of roommates, friends and my own pets since college in 2009. I have fostered a special needs dog that was deaf, diabetic and had cataracts, she needed insulin injections with every meal. I adopted 2 awesome dogs, one of them has been through 2 ACL surgeries and lives with Cushing's. I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. I can take a long lunch and walk/check in on your animals. I have pretty open availability to visit evenings and weekends. Walking a dog is a great way to bond and give the pet some sunshine and exercise. I don't mind spending a good amount of time playing with the dog and make sure their needs are met. I am used to having my dog be a picky pee spot picker, so I have a lot of patience.
“Taylor is amazing! She’s very responsive, responsible, sends detailed updates, and takes such good care of our sweet girl! Would recommend to others and we will be having her care for our girl again!!! Thank you, Taylor!!”

Claudia did a fantastic job! From the photos she sent, I could see the girls were completely at ease with her. She communicates clearly and concisely, giving me a quick update every day. I’d absolutely recommend working with Claudia, and I’ll definitely be booking her again.

Emma, is the best, I was nervous, thinking my cat would have several issues with me being gone, but it was quite the opposite. He loved them and I believe he misses her. The updates were awesome. I felt so comfortable on my trip knowing that my Kat Phoenix was in great hands. I could tell by the pictures she sent every day. I will always use this site but especially Emma every time I’m out of town.
We can’t say enough good things about Jeanne and the incredible care she gave our cat, Kismet, while we were away. From the moment she began, we felt completely at ease knowing Kismet was in such thoughtful and capable hands. Jeanne went above and beyond — not only making sure our cat was well cared for, but also giving us peace of mind with regular updates and absolutely beautiful photos (she’s an amazing photographer, too!). She’s by far the best caregiver Kismet has ever had. Jeanne’s attention to detail, kindness, and genuine affection for our cat made all the difference. Kismet really bonded with her — which says everything! We’re also grateful for her practical tips (the spatula idea was genius!), and her intuitive, proactive approach to caregiving. We will definitely be calling on Jeanne again, and recommend her with complete confidence to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. We are so grateful. Thank you, Jeanne!
Abigail is awesome. We were admittedly a bit nervous because she's newer on the platform but there was absolutely nothing to worry about. Super professional, knowledgeable, and just good vibes. She's very thoughtful and really cares about the pets. She also put up with our annoying message barrage early on, as some unexpected things suddenly came up. Definitely bring her on to watch your fur babies if you get a chance.
Highly recommend!!! James was very attentive to my cats and all their little differences + quirks, and made sure they all got some love :) I also really appreciated the check-ins and photos, it was nice to know how they were doing and know they were getting care and attention!!
We cannot recommend Gabrielle enough! She is hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had on Rover. From the very start, she went above and beyond to ensure our cats were happy and well cared for. She followed our feeding instructions meticulously and even spent more time with our cats than we had booked, which really made a difference. One of our cats is extremely shy and timid, but Gabrielle was incredibly patient and gentle, taking the time to make him feel comfortable and safe. By the time we returned, it was as if our cats had known her forever—they were so relaxed and happy around her. As if that wasn’t enough, Gabrielle went the extra mile with thoughtful touches. She left adorable Polaroid pictures of each cat for us to keep, and we were so touched to find a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a vase in our kitchen when we got home. If you’re looking for a truly amazing, reliable, and compassionate cat sitter, Gabrielle is the one. We will absolutely be booking her again and 100% recommend her to anyone! Thank you, Gabrielle, for taking such amazing care of our fur babies! ❤️🐾
