“Amara was amazing! Even got my reclusive cat Soeren to come out for treats. Lily, of course, was her usual extroverted self and came out for lovies. So sad we only got to try her services once, but we will definitely recommend her to friends.”
“Tracy is the best! We are new to the area and he was kind of enough to stop by before the scheduled visit to say hello and to meet the dogs. They absolutely loved him and his communication was great!”
“Our dogs are like our kids so for someone to come in and understand that is so amazing. Wes was very accommodating and put our minds at ease knowing our babies were taken care of with top tier care!”

“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”
“Jen took great care of my kitty. She was so sweet and so kind. I love getting pictures of him while I was away, and it really took a huge load off my mind to know that somebody was coming to take care of him every day. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Edmy was fantastic! My two kitties were cared for so well! Their bowls and litter were cleaned with each visit. Edmy found some ants around the food bowls and was kind enough to move the food. I cannot say enough nice things about them and can’t wait to have them back. I highly recommend them! I got lots of pictures and felt confident in being away.”
“I loved that Heather came to meet Farah and I. I could tell right away she was caring and very patient. Our cat sitter couldn't come to check in on Farah while we were on vacation due to unexpected health decline. Heather was willing to with very little notice. We were gone for 13 days and had Heather do a drop in for 11 days. Farah requires eye cleaning just about every day and is super picky about how clean her litter box is. She also hates getting her eyes cleaned and Heather did such a great job with her eye care. She made sure she had clean water each day too. Heather did the best job!! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl!!”

About: I have a dog of my own and understand the responsibility that comes with taking care of your pet. I’ve always had many of pets throughout my life and would love to add your pet to my extended family. I am looking forward to showing your pet the love and attention that all humans and pets need. I live an active lifestyle so I am always out and about taking my dog on a walk. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or night I will be walking with my pupper and would love for your pet to come along for the ride.

I am able to work with pets of all sizes as many of my friends and family have had me watch their pets while they were away.

“I contacted Natalie for a last minute visit and she was able to drop-in and check on our three pups. They were all content and everything was in place. It gives us peace of mind knowing that we don't have to rush back from an outing, our pups are all happy and cared for.”
“Mariah was great! Her photo updates always showed that Duffy was having fun, and in good hands. Communication is important when we entrust our fur friends to others, and Mariah was right on top of that. Will definitely book her again when I have opportunity to travel!”
“Natalie is a true gem! 💎 We could feel her energy and dedication to providing the best care for our pets right from our first meeting, and we didn’t worry at all while we were away. Natalie’s communication was excellent, including photos, and she went above and beyond our expectations, leaving our home neat and organized when we returned. Natalie is highly recommended, and we will definitely ask her to sit for us again soon.”

“Charity was incredible!! Very professional and caring. I have a very rambunctious 10 month old Newfoundland that she handled with patience and care. She regularly sent pictures and updates to me. I would recommend her 1000%. She put my mind at ease while I was away on vacation!!”
West Central pet parents share their Rover experiences
Paris was absolutely amazing with our sweet toasted marshmallow, Soleil, while we were out of town! 🐾✨ From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease, and she went above and beyond in every way possible. She made sure Soleil was safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for like she was her own kitty. Paris kept us updated, paid close attention to her needs, and gave us such peace of mind during our trip. Knowing our girl was in such kind and capable hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy ourselves without worrying. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals and treats them with so much patience and compassion. We came home to a happy, well-loved little marshmallow, and we are so incredibly grateful. We would trust Paris again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and truly exceptional to care for their pets. Thank you, Paris, for loving our girl so well! 💕
100% recommend Jennifer. We have a very nervous 50 pound Bernie doodle that likes to bark ferociously at strangers, but Jennifer was able to calm her down even though she was the first person to ever enter our house when we weren’t home and let the dogs out! She made sure they had sufficient time outside and even walk the yard with them. She brought them to their water and food bowls, and encouraged them to eat and drink. Then sat with them on the floor and gave them both individual attention. We are honestly overjoyed with the care that she provided and we will use her again, so should you!
