“Sarah was incredibly, it’s very clear she loves animals and I will absolutely ask her back.”
“Jess is awesome- she is so friendly and kind! My cat loved her! She accommodated a last minute request AND offered to run my dishwasher on her way out. Would recommend Jess to anyone in the area!”
“Abbey is amazing!! She checked in on our kitty every day during a 9 trip, and we felt so at ease knowing she was taking such good care of our home and cat. She had incredible communication while we were away and went above and beyond for our cat. She came ahead of time to meet us, often stayed longer with our kitty than we had booked, sent tons of pics, and even went out to buy litter when it ran out while we were away. I cannot reccomend her highly enough- thank you!”
“Erin did a fantastic job with Stella was timely and thorough and we arrived home to a very happy Stella! We would ask Erin to help with Stella again!”
“Alisha took amazing care of our two cats while we were away for vacation. Our cats are sometimes shy and timid, Alisha had they out of hiding and playing on day one! Great communication and very friendly. Will book again!”
“Holly fed our two cats twice a day for a few days and was amazing! She spent extra time ensuring they were well loved and sent update pictures each visit. She was easy to communicate with and we highly recommend her!”
“Kadyona was dependable and easy to communicate with. She took care of my two cats over five visits. My cats enjoyed having someone to spend time with them and give attention and playtime.”
“Hannah was so kind, professional, and excellent in her care for our Bird girl. Highly recommend and will use her again!”
“Georgia stayed with my cat for 9 days recently. It was a huge relief to be out of the country and not worry at all about either my cat or my residence. She sent many photos of Sebastian. He was clearly a happy camper. The house was immaculate upon returning home. And I found an added bonus of yummy homemade lemon bars left for me in the frig! I'm looking forward to the next trip, as I really couldn't ask for a better situation.”
About: I've taken care of dogs as long as I can remember, but have been doing it as a side job since I was about 12. I love all dogs, whether they are big, small, old, or young. I am currently working in the morning and early afternoons, so evening and night (walks, check-ins, etc.) would be ideal for my schedule at the moment! I have a large unfenced yard and a jittery, but friendly pup that would love to get to know yours! I also have access to yards that are fenced in!:)
“Wow, what a treat it was to find Stephanie as a catsitter for my 2 cats! She was wonderful with my cats and very dependable! I would not hesitate to have her watch and care for my fur babies again! Thank you, Stephanie! ❤️😺😺❤️”
“We could not have asked for a better cat sitter for our two girls! Rory answered our last minute request for cat care after our usual sitter fell through, then took the time and dedication to drop in and visit them twice a day. Not only did she see to their basic needs, she went above and beyond to play with them to ensure they were not bored or lonely while we were away. Not to mention the adorable and sometime hilarious pictures she sent everyday! I would recommend Rory to anyone looking for a pet sitter. 11/10! 😊”
“Ali was great, sent photos and updates with each visit and was great to work with on booking, will book with her again!”
“Abby took wonderful care of our senior cat! I was nervous about leaving him as he has advanced CKD and was worried our absence would stress him out and potentially lead to a crash. Abby was extremely communicative and responsive. The regular videos and pics she sent assured me my cat was doing great while we were gone! Her love of animals shines through in her communication. She left our house spotless. We would happily book Abby again!”
“Sabrina was on time, responsible, communicative, and clearly liked Maya. She listened carefully and looked after her just as I would have wanted. Her drop in visit enabled me to focus fully on attending a funeral out of state where we drove roundtrip in one day. Look forward to having her walk Maya next time.”
“Erin has been fantastic and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend!”
“Frankie was a great sitter! I got pics of my cat while I was away, which is always nice :) and Frankie left my house very clean! 10/10 recommend.”
“I'm so grateful that you could keep Sandy company and give the old girl attention. She seems very relaxed. (and Thank you for taking in the pkg on the porch)”
“Karin was great with my cat and dog! Prompt communication and very reliable, would highly recommend.”
About: Hi, my name is Sam and I have over 10 years of experience pet sitting! I mostly pet sit for dogs and cats of many backgrounds - fostered kittens and retired race greyhounds, energetic dogs to elderly dogs and cats. I have experience administering medications and shots for diabetic dogs. I worked seasonly on a farm for 4 years in Vermont and I fed/cared for chickens and alpacas on the field. I also have experience caring for reptiles - I had a gecko and amphibians for 17 years. I am a teacher, so my summers are pretty flexible. My school year starts the end of August, so my availability by then will be open after 3:30pm Monday-Friday. On weekends, I am more flexible about timing. I am a big outdoor enthusiast - mountain biker, skier, hiker. If you need a dog walker or sitter, I would love for your dog to come join in on the fun! I can walk your pet outside in the neighborhood if you just need a drop in. If you have a routine for your pet/s, I am happy to stick with that to help them feel comfortable and at home. If you need help with overnights, I am happy to discuss the length of days needed. I will send photos and videos while you are away!

Samantha M.
“I highly recommend Sam as a pet sitter/walker on Rover! They are incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Sam has watched my dog several times, and I’ve always been impressed by how well they handle everything—from feeding and walking to providing updates and photos throughout the day. My dog, who can be quite the diva, warmed up to Sam right away, which says a lot about Sam’s calm and caring nature. I fully trust Sam to care for any pet with the same level of attention and affection, and I know they’ll do a fantastic job for anyone on Rover!”
