Camila did an excellent job taking care of my cat while I was gone! My cat is known to make messes and act up while I’m gone and Camila happily cleaned up the messes she made! Camila was attentive, spent a lot of time with her (even if she didn’t always come out to say hi) and provided plenty of pictures. I would happily have her watch Jym again next time I’m out of town.

Great experience with Mia! She was able to come last minute to check in with my dog when I needed him to be let out. Quick to respond, reliable, and made sure he was taken care of. Would recommend, thank you Mia!

About: I have taken care of my parents senior dog in my home while they were out of town. Helped a former coworker with her dog, also in my home, while she was out of town. I have helped a friend of mine with their senior dog + 4 cats in their home as drop in visits while they were out of town. Since starting Rover, I have had multiple in home stays with dogs, and homes that have both dogs and cats. I work full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday. My morning routine includes leaving the house by 7:00 AM to take my child to daycare or school. Before departing, all pets in my care are taken outside, fed, and provided with any necessary medications. Depending on the proximity of your home, I may be available to stop by during my lunch break to check on and care for your pet. After work, I pick up my child from daycare and can typically arrive at your home around 5:00 PM. Upon arrival, dogs will be taken outside promptly and fed as needed. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss specific care needs or scheduling. I care for pets with the same level of attention and compassion as I do my own. I follow each pet’s individual feeding schedule, ensure they always have access to fresh water, and administer any required medications as directed. Dogs are taken outside regularly for bathroom breaks and exercise, and I make time to play and engage with them to keep them happy and active. For cats, I maintain clean litter boxes in addition to providing consistent feeding, fresh water, and attentive care. I also enjoy offering treats when permitted; my daughter especially loves helping to give treats, making it a fun and positive experience for your pet.

Jamie did a great job watching my dogs and cats. She went above and beyond. My dogs have separation anxiety and had never been left alone overnight in our house. She was sure to spend time with them to make them feel comfortable. One of my dogs had an accident during the night and she cleaned it so well that you couldn’t even tell it happened. I couldn’t be happier and I think my dogs enjoyed it more than being boarded.

Abigayl has been such an awesome addition to our kitty, Annie’s life, and ours too! She has sat for us twice since moving to the area and has been great. She is thorough, follows care instructions, and our cat loves her. Our cat is very particular and a bit misunderstood, but she loves Abigayl! She also was able to step in and watch her totally last minute. She is our go to cat sitter in the area!

Katherine took good care of our cats over the winter holidays! She informed us when we were low on a medication (which was our fault, sorry), and she made sure the cats were happy every day. We even left the cats a Christmas present, and she gave it to them!

About: I am a veterinary assistant with Public Vet, where I complete physical exams on over 100 cats a day! In my free time, I foster and work hard to get my kitties adopted after fulfilling their medical and love-needs. I have had many dogs in the past, but have only fostered one. An English Bulldog with spina bifida-Lyla. She was disabled and completely incontinent, and required much care. I love and miss her dearly, she is now 2 years old and has been with her forever family for 2 years! If your pet has any medical needs, you can count on me to take care of them every step of the way. If you are someone who enjoys photos of your best friend, expect many! (In addition to Dannie, I also go by my nickname-Mae!) I am currently a student and work occasionally at the local cat cafe and part-time at a veterinary clinic. Most of my nights I spend studying. Most of my weekdays are spent in and out of class. Having your pet at home would occur on nights and days when my work load is the least (some days I only have 1-2 classes), that way your pets needs are never compromised. Pets in my care are firstly loved on tremendously. I am also happy to meet any requirements owners have for their pets. Is your pet afraid of the TV for some reason? It will never be on. This goes for in my own home, and in yours as well.

About: I've had dogs and cats growing up my entire life. I absolutely love animals and would love the opportunity to meet yours! We currently have our cat, Piper, and Boston Terrier, Pongo. I work from home, so I would be home all day with your animals. I'm able to take breaks whenever for potty breaks, and we have a small, fenced in, front yard. Our complex also has a lot of walking pathes & with permission we love taking pets for longer walks around the area. We did recently move from Indiana to North Carolina, so please not we are now located in North Carolina for services. We live in a 3 bedroom townhome with a small fenced in front yard. We have plenty of sidewalks for walking & are just beside a larger dog park as well. My husband and I work together, so we are able to always be attentive to your pets needs.

Thank you very much for taking care of Quantum! This was the longest we've all been away since adopting her, and we sure appreciate the daily drop in visits so she could remain at home in her familiar surroundings. We were happy to get daily photos, even if most of them were her hiding under the bed. :) Thanks again.

Faith is a wonderful, trusted dog walker. We have two large dogs who are reactive to other dogs and do not like strangers. Faith is very responsible and did fantastic with both of them. They love her and listen well to her. They get excited as soon as she enters our driveway. Faith follows our instructions and is a great communicator. She also understands dogs very well and is very observant. She sends a message if she notices that a dog behaved a bit differently than they usually do. Our family very much appreciated her help and we will miss her after she graduates and moves elsewhere.

Rachel was amazing and made my first Rover experience so easy and stress-free. She was super responsive, flexible with scheduling, and incredibly kind. It was clear right away that my cat would be in great hands. She sent multiple photos and thoughtful updates after every visit, which meant a lot to me while I was away. On top of that, I had a travel issue come up and needed a last-minute visit with very little notice. Rachel responded quickly and even helped take care of the booking when I didn’t have service or availability to do so. I truly can’t thank her enough. She went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again. I’d recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Kath has been wonderful with Billie. I truly appreciate how flexible and reliable she is, which makes scheduling much easier and less stressful. Knowing that she is a veterinary technician gives me extra confidence, especially when it comes to administering medications correctly and safely. Most importantly, she is someone I genuinely trust and feel secure leaving Billie with. I highly recommend her.

Katelyn did wonderfully watching our cat while we were gone! We so appreciated the frequent updates, her communication when she needed clarification on instructions I left, and ESPECIALLY her flexibility when we had to be gone longer than expected. She was happy to schedule more visits and work with our travel schedule. Highly recommend, and my kitty clearly loved the time she devoted to cuddles!
