“She was so good to my cats?? They were comfortable with her very quickly. I was given photo updates of visits. Pet care, feeding, etc all kindly and competently done. Many thanks and will use again.”

“Lauren stopped by our apartment twice a day to feed our 13 year old cat for a little over a week while we were away. We especially appreciated how she went above and beyond by making extra trips in the morning to split up our cat’s feeding schedule to help accommodate her sensitive stomach. Her daily check ins and quick communications were so appreciated and helped us feel way more at ease.”

“Julia was a great help while I was away. She responded quickly and provided great care to my cat. Her update left me feeling relieved that my cat was well taken care of. Would highly recommend!”

“Jess took great care of my 2 kitties when I was away. I got a daily photo with a cute snuggle picture of my friendly cat. It felt good to know they were so well cared for.”

“We so appreciate Lindsay's help! She leaves excellent notes and takes great photos of her work. Will happily call on her again in the future. Our dog can be nervous with some people but is already excited to see Lindsay when she comes by. 5 stars from our dog and us!!”

“Trevor has watched our cats, Mira and Wren, twice and he’s been fantastic every time. He’s super responsive with messages, sends adorable photo updates, and takes the time to play with them and keep them comfortable. Thank you so much Trevor!”

About: Willing to walk most nights a week Worked with large dogs (mainly Great Danes) Have worked with a reactive dog (Family Pet) Dog was reactive on lease with other dogs. When walking I had to be very aware of other dogs that were around and had to be able to move quick when I did see a dog also had treats to distract him from the other dogs. Any time after 4:00 on weekdays due to other job Saturdays: 7 AM - 10 AM and 6:30 PM - 9 PM Sundays: All Day I care for my parents dog and love him very much, when I watch him we usually will hang out in the house or go to the dog park because that is where my parents take him. When I watch someone else dog I like to follow their rules and listen to what they are asking of me. I have watched my sister's dog who is reactive and when watching him I have made sure that I am aware of what he is doing, what I am doing and what is around me. Personally I don't think that the way I care for my parents and families pets would be different from a clients because all pets should be loved!
“Madeleine is kind, responsible and great at checking in with photos! In fact, she took one of my favorite pictures I have of my kitty, ever. Highly recommend.”

“Jesika was so great, so helpful and flexible and reassuring! This was our first time leaving our cat all alone and she went above and beyond to make sure the kitty was ok!”


About: Hi, I’m Katie! I’ve owned and pet-sitted both dogs and cats all my life. I currently have one kitty named Joni at home, but have lots of past experience with pups. I’ve cared for pets who take meds and tend to be on the anxious side. I’m excited to spend time with your best friend(s)! I work full-time, but have a fairly flexible schedule and can accommodate working from home and breaks to check in on your pet. I’m generally free on evenings and weekends, as well. I’ll follow your lead to make our time together the most safe and comfortable experience possible for your pet. Feel free to set up a meet-and-greet beforehand to go over any special instructions.

“Maria was an incredible drop in cat sitter. I can’t recommend her enough. She sent so many photos of my kitty and gave him so much loving. Definitely will be having her take care of my kitty again.”

“Katey is an all star! Even when a health complication for our cat occurred right before we left for vacation she was able to help us handle it. We returned to 2 happy kitties.”

“Destiny did a great job taking care of our three animals, including one cat who had just been spayed and needed some special care. She is very proactive and thorough and clearly loves animals. I would definitely choose her again.”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and have been helping to care for them (walking, feeding, etc.) since I was around 10 years old. I’ve pet sit for many family friends throughout the years - dogs and cats alike. Recently I even housesat for 4 dogs and 2 cats all at the same time! My family dogs both recently passed away and I’ve been looking for something to fill the whole in my heart. Would love to take care of your pets! I am a freelance writer, musician, and retail associate, so I’m able to make my own schedule a lot of the time. I’m free during the day Monday-Thursday to walk your pooch or for drop-in visits, and I’m available after work on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (I typically get off around 3-5 pm). I can walk, feed, or house sit for your dogs or cats. Also just love spending time with them in general! Whatever you need, I’m here to help.
“Meaghan is a gift to us! She does drop in visits for our three pups when I travel, and does an outstanding job. She’s reliable and communicative and puts me at ease. She loves the pups (who are quite energetic), and I can tell they love her, too. Highly recommend and will keep having Meaghan back!”

“Justine was fabulous with our cats and we will definitely request her again! Our shyest kitty warmed up in record time. She kept us up to date and was proactive with packages and such. 10/10!”


About: I have always loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid! I have been around dogs since I was little and I live with a cat now! I would adore taking your furry friend for a walk or checking up on your cat when you are away. I am currently trying to fit dog walking into my schedule in the mornings before my job starts (STARTING IN MAY). I can also check up on your furry friend in the evening. I am also building my online business so days I am not at my other job are more flexible! I am very good at directions and pay attention to details. I will follow the directions left by the owners when doing a check in! I listen to the pet, and if they are not so sure of me, I let them come to me (especially with cats!) And of course there will be lots of pets!
West Bayside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Angela was such a great catsitter, we would highly recommended her to anyone. She had thoughtful questions prior to the sit, and was clearly caring with our meows. You can always tell by the cats energy after returning home... our cats were so happy, we know they were in good care. Angela's messages and photos were super detailed and full of kindness. We hope to have her back : )

My two dogs had a wonderful experience with Avital! She was very kind and patient with my small dog who is very shy around all of three people in his life. By the end of the 4 days we had hired Avital for, our shy boy adored her! 100% recommend her for any of your pet needs! We look forward to working with Avital for all of our future pet-sitter needs! She is wonderful, patient, and kind; everything you hope the person you’re entrusting your fur babies to be!

Priscilla is amazing! She took such good care of my two cats that even my shy kitty opened up and initiated playtime. Her updates are thorough and include lots of photos, she’s friendly and communicative over chat, and she executes the care plan to a T. It was wonderful to know my kitties were in such excellent hands while I was away and to not need to worry about them. Will definitely be booking with Priscilla again!

Muriel was very sweet with the pets and communicated really well. When a storm threatened our flight, she stayed in touch and worked around her schedule to be able to bridge the gap so that care continued until we got home. I would definitely recommend her anytime.
