About: I helped take care of my previous housemate’s dog, Maia, a very sweet rescue for about two years, walking her, feeding her and playing with her. After moving out, I realized how much I miss the joy of interacting with dogs, so I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to pet sit! I work from home and have some flexibility with time, especially before noon and in the evenings. I’m sure we’ll be able to figure something out scheduling wise! I value making sure that pets feel safe, comfortable and loved. I will greet them in the most unimposing way possible and wait for them to get comfortable approaching me. I use lots of encouraging words and keep my tone kind and friendly. I give them my full attention and make sure that their needs are taken care of empathetically, lovingly and caringly.

Elena did a WONDERFUL job caring for my 2 older kitties. She provided great daily updates, and was very responsive! My 2 critters are happy and relaxed after my return, which after being gone for 12 days, really says something! Thank you Elena!!

So wonderful to have met Lynne! She was great with my anxious dogs and I appreciated that she did the meet and greet and got to know them ahead of time! They currently can't be at home alone and so it was great peace of mind to be able to leave them with her. We'll definitely be booking again. Thank you Lynne!

Nate has been awesome with our dog, Sadie. She can be fearful, but it was very clear at the first meeting that she was comfortable with him right away. He’s very attentive and communicative - sends pictures and videos during his visit, which we love. We will be continuing to have him watch Sadie on a regular basis and occasionally day care and overnights!

Gabrielle was an amazing pet sitter for my cat and I’m so glad I found her. My cat was having a lot of separation anxiety when I left for my trip, but Gabrielle took over like a professional cat whisperer and helped calm her and cared for her with her with a lot of attention to detail and I was so grateful! She was responsible, communicative, great with instructions and went above and beyond sending lots of pictures and updates for every visit which I loved, appreciated and looked forward to seeing everyday. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat is in such good hands. She’s been an absolute star sitter and I would highly recommend her!

Stacy took great care of our senior cat while we were away! We appreciated that she accommodated our fairly last minute request to watch our cat, even though we were new to her. She was super communicative and quick to respond, leaving informative notes on how our cat was doing, and followed all instructions to a T. We appreciated the peace of mind knowing our cat was well cared for while we were away!

About: I have taken care of dogs as long as I can remember. I volunteered at my local animal shelter throughout middle and high school where I socialized puppies and took adult dogs out for stress relief. I take care of my parent’s dog, as well as neighbors and friends’ dogs when they are away. I’m the biggest animal lover in the world and would love to be a trustworthy friend for your dog until I can adopt one of my own! I do not work until 11am Monday through Wednesday and would love to help care for your dog these mornings or anytime on the weekends! I am extremely respectful and am committed to treating your dog like I do my own. I understand that every dog has their own needs and personalities, and I will always follow your preferences and requests to make you and your dog comfortable.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from young to old, big to small, lively to mellow, since I was young. I grew up with dogs in the household and moved on to dog-sitting for neighbors and friends. I have experience taking puppies to training school and working with food-oriented and play-oriented dogs. I'm currently working four days a week, typically through the weekend, so I'm happy to play with your pup anytime on those off days (usually Wednesday, Thursday and/or Friday).My My apartment sadly does not allow pets, but I am happy to take your dog out and about for a stimulating walk or play with your puppy at home.

About: I grew up volunteering at pet shops, watching dog videos as a favorite past time (still do) and petsitting for friends all my life. I currently live with a senior dog and play/take care of her most days also! I have a natural knack for connecting with even the most timid, grumpy or anxious animals quickly. I like to approach pets respectfully and gently, bonding at their pace so they feel safe and settled easily. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and bunnies week+ at a time. I currently live with a 9yo dog, so I have a soft spot for senior dogs. I am often the person who walks and cares for the dog throughout the week because I work remotely. Walks should be paced by the dog’s desired pace w lot of sniffing, time at home should feel safe and calm (w occasional fun w toys of course) and you should be communicated to feel anxious-free comfortable while you are away from your pet! I have a car and work remote, unless I am already booked or have a meeting, I am relatively flexible. Usual availabilities: Weekdays: Walks and visits – flexible day to day, but prefer to walk before 9am, during lunch hours, or after 4:30pm. Sitting – available to sit 9-5pm but able to go longer on Mon, Tues, Fri Sun: flexible and available 3:30pm onwards Feel free to lmk what you need and we can work it out! When it’s play time, it should be fun and energetic! When it’s nap time, they should feel calm and safe. I work a flexible remote job, so I will be able to provide as much attention as you pet needs.

About: My fiancée and I want to love your pet while saving for our wedding! Please read the bio below and feel free to reach out with any questions! We look forward to connecting with you! I've been a dog lover from the day I was born. Dolly and Rocket (Dalmatian and Golden Retriever) were my two childhood dogs that made me fall in love with man's best friend. When I lost Dolly and Rocket to old age, I began working at a local pet sitting service. It was the best decision I ever made. The 2 years of working as a professional pet sitter allowed me to experience a wide range of dog breeds, personalities, and ages and also exposed me to caring for cats. The demands of college required that I stop my pet-sitting but now that I have graduated , I am excited to return to pet sitting and get back to providing love and care to four-legged companions! I do pet-sit with my fiancée, Ameer (check him out in the photos). He has joined me for many pet sits over the years and is another devoted animal lover! Please let me know if there are any hesitations or questions about the both of us caring for your fur baby, especially if your little one is hesitant around men. Caring for your little one is a two-person job: I take the morning and evening shifts while Ameer handles the midday times. When I’m working in office during the day, Ameer stays with your little one to keep them company and handle any needs during the day. Then, I am there for long walks in the afternoon/evening and early morning walks to start your little one’s day off right! We treat your pets and home as if they were our own. This means above and beyond care to make sure your pets needs are met and your home is respected and kept clean. We are home bodies and love to curl up on the couch with a book/movie and a furry cuddle buddy next to us!

As a first time user of Rover, I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. Annie exceeded my expectations in every way. She responded quickly to my somewhat last minute request, was really flexible with my schedule/needs, and did a great job taking care of my dog and keeping me informed. She was timely, thorough, and seemed to really enjoy her work! I would definitely hire her again.

Zhao is an ideal cat sitter. She closely follows instructions, takes time to connect with your cat, and sends the best photos and videos. I loved her daily videos and report and could see that my baby was being cared for so well! I could also see that he adored her. She would gently brush him during her visits and he was in bliss, purring and showing his tummy. I think Zhao may be one of his newest favorite humans.

Samantha was so great with my kitty Garbanzo! I had an unexpected and last minute family trip come up, and she still prioritized scheduling a meet and greet with me before the visit. She had great communication, sent lots of photos, and I could tell Garbanzo was not anxious when I got home. Thank you, Samantha! I would highly recommend her as a sitter.

Julia has helped watch my cats multiple times over the last year, and she has consistently done an amazing job. I appreciate her punctuality, quick responses, and the effort put into each check-in card. On her most recent visit, she went above and beyond, brushing my cats and cleaning up some messes. My experience with Julia has been distinctly different from other sitters on rover in all of the best ways, and that is why I keep going back. Highly recommend her for your pets as well!

Karen really made sure my shy and elderly kitties got their medication. Sweety requires oral gel on her paws two times a day and has just decided that is so yesterday, making it not an easy task. Karen was able to get Sweety to take her oral medication 2x per day, which can even require a game of chase. My Kitties have trouble keeping weight on with their age and other health factors. I came home to plumper happy and calm kitties! I HIGHLY recommend Karen.

Sarah was amazing. We were looking for someone to take care of our cat while we were away last minute and Sarah was incredibly accommodating. Not only was she easy to communicate with, she also made our schedules work for her to pick up the keys. Our generally suspicious cat trusted her instantly - I couldn’t believe (and was delighted by) the photo updates she shared at each drop in. Could not recommend Sarah more highly!
