“I’m so glad that I found Amy on Rover. She is very reliable and responsive and the perfect person to help out with my puppy when I have to be gone during the day. Very friendly and great with pets ❤️ We will continue to hire her to take care of Bowie 🐶”


“Dani loves our cats! It helps because I miss them when we go ❤️ It was my first major booking with someone outside of family, and I'm so glad I did it. Hope to see you again, Dani!”

“Christy was AMAZING!! She understood my cat's needs which allowed him to feel secure with her. Christy listened carefully to my cat's diet and medication routines and copied them to a tee. My cat remained happy and healthy because of Christy's exceptional care! Christy also helped me feel better about leaving my diabetic cat at home by sending updates and pictures with each visit. I wholeheartedly recommend Christy! Thank you so much!”

About: Always loved cats and dogs, ever since I was a toddler. A dream of mine was to be a dog trainer (wasn’t very successful) but my passion for them will never leave. Currently between jobs, and online school, so I have all the time in the world for all the little and big fluff balls. My schedule is very flexible to fit your needs. My friends and neighbors always trusted me with taking care of their pets. I’m very friendly and caring with all types. I can do some light training if you ask, but I can’t promise to be good with that.

“Second time with Carolina walking my dog Blair - she does such a great job and sends tons of sweet photos! I feel very well informed and trust that she took great care of my baby while I’m out and about. I will be booking with her again soon!”


“Madison did a great job of taking care of our cat with lots of playing over 10 days. She kept us up to date with lots of photos! We will definitely ask her to care for our cat again!”


“Teresa is an amazing caretaker! We are so lucky to have her take care of our cats. She absolutely goes above and beyond what is needed. We can’t say enough about her!”


“Lizzy was an excellent sitter, she was able to come support last minute and was patient with some issues getting in the building which I really appreciated! She was great with Dexter and completed everything that was required during a couple quick visits. Would recommend 10/10 and I hope to work with her again. Thank you Lizzy!”


About: I'm a theatre teacher and dog lover and with school out for the summer, I have some extra time and energy to spend it keeping your furry family member happy, safe, and loved while you're away! As an educator, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility to pet care. Whether it’s energetic walks, relaxing cuddle time, or sticking to special routines, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique personality and needs. You can count on me for: 🎭 Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment 🐾 Drop-ins, house sitting, or overnight care 🦴 Feeding, meds, and updates with adorable photos 🏠 Respectful, tidy care of your home during visits I co-parent a sweet rescue Pitanese named Atlas, but he will not be present in my home when your dog(s) come to stay. I will only care for one dog family in my home at a time (up to 2 dogs.) As a devoted dog parent, I know how important it is to trust someone with your family member(s), and I’d be honored to provide a reliable, loving presence while you’re away. Let’s connect—I can’t wait to meet your furry family! I will be off from my teaching job throughout much of the summer, so will have a very flexible schedule to spend with your pet(s)! I live in the bottom unit of a duplex home and have full access to a fully fenced in yard. My upstairs neighbor has a dog, but doesn't use the yard with his dog and exits through a separate entrance. I'm a gardener, so your dog will always be supervised while playing in the yard. We live near trails and a park, so there is plenty of opportunity for enrichment on walks as well. I allow my dog on the sofa, but if this is not a habit you want your dog to pick up, I will follow those instructions. I have past experience giving oral medication, caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs in recovery from an injury.

“Very nice coming home to a happy pet and a clean place! Abi goes above and beyond to care for my senior kitty when I travel. She always keeps things very clean just like I do- highly recommend!”



“Lucia was great with my cat zoe! I could tell that she truly cares and has love and affection for animals. She updated daily with photos and comments to keep me at ease while I was away. Would definitely recommend and book with her again.”


“This was my first time using Rover, and I had a very positive experience with Sarah doing drop-ins for my cats! I could tell from the pictures she sent me that my cats were so happy she stopped by. I’ll be looking to book her in the future!”


“Ari was great with our two pitbulls! You can tell he is very experienced with dogs--even those with challenging behavior. My dogs were very comfortable with him, and I would absolutely hire him again for our future pet-sitting needs.”

Rola M.
“I have a cat and a dog. My dog is very energetic and loves attention. He bonded very quickly with Rola and I trusted her with him whenever I was out of town, and she did amazingly. I fear that he likes her more than he likes me. My cat on the other hand, hates strangers, he hides whenever people are around. It took him a while to get used to Rola, but way faster than he would anyone else. she understands when he'll allow to be petted, and when he wouldn't like to be touched. She's also careful whenever he tries to dash through the door, and when both my cat and dog fight, she knows how to separate them. overall, I trust her to be great with all kinds of pets.”
