“I'm a first time Rover user so I was new to the process and a little apprehensive, but I had nothing to be concerned about- Autumn was amazing! We had a meet and greet with her before our trip and she immediately made us comfortable about leaving the care of our kitties to her. It's clear she loves animals and our two 9 year old kitties loved her visits while we were out of town. She took great care of them and was extremely communicative with us the entire time. I will definitely request her services again in the future!!”
“Lizz made our elder kitty, Bella, feel very comfortable during our absence. She sent messages and photos after every visit. Bella always lets us know when we return if she is stressed by her experience. This was NOT the case during this trip. Thanks Lizz for all your care.”
“Azure was wonderful with our three cats! She was timely and excellent with communication. It was obvious that she was passionate about taking care of them. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
“Paige was amazing with our two cats and bunny! She also was so helpful when our bunny kept escaping the room and provided a solution so she couldn’t. She was also so reassuring while taking care of my animals. She’s amazing”
“Absolutely love Melissa and Ryan! They really came through for me on a short notice and even helped me with undoing a hitch on my car. They say you find good people everywhere you go, and I definitely found some great ones. My pups loved them and I felt totally safe and trusted them to take care of my girls. Highly recommend!”
“Ryan was the perfect sitter for my cat Stevie! I was so relieved she had experience with cats, and it was clear Stevie really liked her. Ryan sent great daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind.”
“Yvonne was great! She sent a ton of pictures and let me know how each kitty was doing everyday we were gone! Definitely recommend her and will be using her again for future trips.”
“This was our first time ever using a pet sitter we didn't know and boy, are we glad we chose Michael! He checked in on our car for over a week and managed to win over our cat, Samwise, which can sometimes be hard to do! Overall, Michael was professional, kind, and gave great updates while we were away. Knowing Michael was watching out for Samwise made it that much easier to be away from home! We would absolutely book again!”
“Fed and took care of my animals very well. Punctual, friendly, and caring. I received lots of pictures of my babies while I was away and am very pleased with Marion’s services and I would definitely recommend anyone to choose her as their pet sitter! ???”
About: I'm a caring and dependable animal lover with lifelong experience owning and looking after pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've also looked after others' pets and volunteered with animals. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and my priority is always to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. I'm currently enrolled in online school and work part-time. I'm available for pet sitting on weekends and Wednesdays, with some additional weekday availability. I'm happy to discuss your specific needs and will always do my best to accommodate your pet's routine. I care for others' animals the same way I care for my own - with love, patience, and attention to their individual needs. My goal is always to make sure that every pet feels loved, supported, and well cared for - whether it's through daily routines, giving affection, or dedicating play time.
“From the moment I met Gillian, I knew that my senior kitty would be in good hands when I was away for a few days. She was so gentle, kind, and attentive towards him, and was more than happy to send me updates and pictures so I didn’t get anxious while away for so long. If I weren’t moving out of town in a few weeks, I would without a doubt book her again!”
“Alyssa gave me peace of mind with the house sit, watching my cat Beerus for 4 days. She sent pics the very first visit, putting a smile on my face before I had a chance to be worried about how my kitty was doing. My cat needs meds every night, and she was flawless at giving them to him. My cat was super cuddly with her per the pics, and that made me so happy to see! All in all, I would hire her again to give my cat the best life while I’m away from home.”
“She was such a great cat sitter! She was super nice, reliable, and took great care of my cat. I came home to a happy, well-fed kitty and a clean space. I’d definitely trust her to watch my cat again!”
“Maddi was a great cat-sitter and we would most definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter. She was very communicative and kept us updated on how our cat was doing while we were away, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you Maddi!”
About: Hi there, I've been sitting for family and friends for a long time now and figured some other furry friends could use some company while their humans are away. Dogs and cats can have very different personalities, and I act accordingly for their needs and temperaments. If we need to go for a 5 mile run, so be it. If we just need to cuddle, I've got that down too. I have 3 shepherds of my own who are amazing but high energy, so I'm used to working those guys out. I also have grooming tools for any pup or cat that needs a good fresh coat and nails. I am also able to take your dog out to a 4 acre property that is fenced so they can be a free range dog for a bit
About: I will take exceptional care of your pets as animals are my favorite thing in the world. When people ask me what my "passion" is, the only thing that comes to mind is caring for animals. I have taken care of animals since I was a child. I grew up with 4 dogs, 2 rabbits, 2 cats, 2 hamsters, and a bunch of fish. I care so much about animals and their well-being that I will do just about anything for them. Friends, family, and acquaintances have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets. I have done multiple pet sitting gigs, and have even been a reliable farm sitter. I am active and I love being outside. I will run/exercise with your dogs if desired! I am currently transitioning to part-time work, so I will have plenty of time to play with/walk/run your pets! I am free after 5:00 pm and have breaks during the day. I am also available on weekends. I am happy to work something out with you as my schedule is flexible. I am not able to house animals at my house at this time but I am more than happy to watch them at yours! I am a trustworthy pet/house sitter and will follow the rules at your house and clean up after myself and the pets :)
“Loren did an amazing job watching our three kitties. He listened to our instructions and we came home to happy, healthy babies! Will definitely rebook and recommend his services to others.”
“Really thankful for Krystal being flexible and available last minute due to previous sitter cancellation! Great communication, Krystal is friendly and respectful so I will be choosing again :)”
About: Years ago my Mother gave me a card. It said, “The more I know men the more I love my dog.” My family has always had dogs and cats too. Once having a discussion with my guy he said, “even the dog ranks higher than me!” A dog is more than a pet. They are a companion who loves unconditionally. Who is ready to play or not. Will always listen and never rejects a belly rub. I genuinely prefer canines over people. Recently read the book “Dog Sense.” There is so much more about these wonderful creatures that it should be required reading before anyone takes on the responsibility of owning a companion. I will give your family member the respect and genuine kindness it deserves. Thank you for your consideration.
