“We are new to the area and we’re anxious about getting a new cat sitter for our two very shy cats. We are very happy to have found Aidan and will definitely book again! They were very responsive and did a great job making sure our cats were taken care of while we were away.”
“Baeli was great! Super communicative and quick to respond. She was great with our cats, who were well taken care of and happy to receive cuddles while we were gone. Would definitely have her pet sit again!”
“Heath is the absolute best, and has gone above and beyond for us and our cat many times. We highly recommend Heath to everyone we know looking for a pet sitter.”
“My initial Rover sitter bailed the night before my trip, and thank goodness I found Rebecca! Not only did she offer to have a late night video call so she could see the apartment and get the rundown on how to take care of my dog - but she was in communication with me every day following. I have a large breed dog that can be a bit intimidating to some given his size and energy level, but she bonded with him so well and I could tell in all the pictures she sent he was loving his time with her. Hands down will be booking with Rebecca from now on!”
“Korin has a very gentle and patient manner with our shy girl. They were responsive and communicative throughout, and I would highly recommend them!”
“Ana took great care of my cat! She came right when she said she would, kept me updated with pictures, and generally helped so much with my peace of mind while I was away. And my cat didn't give me her usual 5 minutes of the cold shoulder when I got back, which I took as a sign that she was well cared for and got plenty of love while I was gone!”
“Annemarie took great care of our kitten and dog while we were away! She provided descriptive Rover cards with pics that gave us peace of mind that our furry friends were doing well at home. We would definitely recommend!”
About: I have owned my beloved Australian Shepherd for over 17 years. Within the last 10 years, I have experience taking care of geriatric dogs, including administering medications, I know the specific requirements needed for elderly dogs. I find great joy in taking care of other people’s animals as well. I enjoy taking them on long walks, playing fetch, giving them endless belly rubs. I want parents to feel rest assured leaving their animals in my care. please know I understand every animal is different and will be happy to accommodate any and all requests needed to make your animal feel taken care of. I have a very flexible work schedule and can work around specific needs of each animal. Will allow open communication to best care for your animal. I am happy to accommodate in any way that is needed. My own dog has free range to my house and does not use a crate. However, I have cared for multiple animals that have different home rules and will be happy to take care of your animal in whatever fits your lifestyle. Please let me know any specifics that are required.
About: I have lived with dogs since I was born and have loved them since day one. They've been my companion of mine for as long as I can remember! Being away from my family home now I miss my dogs terribly, and even more I miss general dog presence in my life! Seeing a dog while walking to class or work, or spending some time with friends dogs instantly makes my day infinitely brighter. I am comfortable and caring with dogs of all shapes and sizes (as I have had both small and large dogs at home) and will give them love and care! I love playful and calm dogs alike, I will play with them lay with them -- anything they need! Looking forward to making new fluffy friends!
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember and have lived with pets since I was 12. I’ve been a mom to two dogs and 7 cats. I am a very active person. I love going for walks, going to dog parks, playing with both cats and dogs. I am a mature, responsible professional and I currently have a lot of free time. I would like to spend that time doing what I love. I have one cats now, Rue and Fiver. I fostered Rue in 2020 and decided right away that he belonged with me. For the next 3 years, I continued to foster and then decided Rue needed a permanent companion, so Fiver became the perfect little brother. I am a teacher and I do not work during the months of July and August so am available any time of day. During the school year, I am available weekday afternoons and evenings and on weekends. I cannot offer pet care in my home at this time. I am very careful with all animals and will make sure they are safe and comfortable.
“First time using this app!! Latifa was fantastic, I felt at ease knowing that my cats were taken care . I was given daily check ups and pics. I would highly recommend using Rover & LATIFA A.”
“It is so, so great to have a sitter that is not afraid of my zoo! As the owner of two cats, ten geckos, and ten snakes, all with different personalities ranging from shy to outright grumpy, I am very comforted by Rich's confidence in caring for them. I am a total momma bear when it comes to ALL of my critters (even the bitey ones), and I don't even worry while I'm away on vacation.”
“Sarah has great communication and made me feel comfortable leaving my cat at home. My cat seemed really happy in all the pictures Sarah sent. Definitely will rebook next time I need a cat sitter :) thank you!”
“Natasha is great! She fed my pup who has several medications with his dinner and walked him after for a drop in visit. She even kindly washed his dish. Sounds like he gets excited to see her and I trust she will always come on time and take good care for my boy.”

About: Dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds have always been a part of my life.

“I've never met anyone as caring, reliable, and passionate about dogs as Mike. He treats every dog he walks like his own—whether it's rain or shine, you can count on him to show up with a smile ready to go. My dog absolutely adores him, and I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in the best hands. Truly the best dog walker out there!”
Rachael M.
“Rachael is a genuine dog lover if I have ever met one. She was raised in a house filled with doggies from Golden retrievers to Shitzus. She's experienced in taking care of dogs in all age groups - from puppies to elderly dogs. I am a Rover dog sitter myself and Rachael - who is my roommate- volunteered to help me take care of my Rover dogs on many occasions. On one occasion she even volunteered and took the puppy I was watching out for a walk around 5 am in the morning. Rachael is responsible, smart and attentive and she will make sure your dog is well taken care of.”
Christin C.
“Christin is a close friend of mine and has been very helpful in the care of my pets. I have two black labs and a tabby cat. Our younger dog is a rescue and had a difficult time with strangers. Christin was extremely patient with her and has become one of her favorite people. She gave Allie space and let Christin be in her space and pet her when she felt safe and ready. I trust her to care for our pets when we are away and often join us for walks in the woods. She is extremely loving towards her cat Rue and was a great dog mom to her shiba inu Indio, who passed away last year.”
