“Thomas took care of Mastimon very well. He was on time, communicative & thoughtful. He provided surety in his service , which is vital to me . I’d recommend Thomas and request his services again! Thomas is your one stop shop!”
“Katie and Zayn were great! This was a last minute trip and we needed someone to watch our 2 cats, they did it no problem. Excellent communication and came back to two happy cats!”
“Jon was great, and went far beyond just feeding our cats and taking care of the litter box. We had just suffered the loss of a beloved sibling of our cats and Jon was especially sensitive to their emotional needs- especially one who was grieving hard - even just checking in on them to make sure they were OK. We not only got detailed reports of their activities, but also comments regarding their mood. By the time we returned home from our trip they were back to normal. highly recommend Jon... He cares.”
“Kayla took great care of our old cats and even went the extra mile with making sure the area around the litter box was spotless. Cleaner than we left it! Highly recommend.”
“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”
“I highly recommend Katrina. She took very good care care of our two cats, was very professional throughout the process, and sent updates so we knew how they were doing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care and would absolutely book her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 18 years old, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I also have professional experience in pet grooming, having worked as both a bather and a dog groomer. This gives me an edge in handling pets gently and confidently, especially during bath time or when dealing with nervous or high-energy pets. Whether it’s daily care, grooming needs, or providing extra attention to puppies or senior pets, I bring patience, skill, and genuine love for animals to every job. I am currently working in a Pet Grooming as a dog groomer during the week. My availability is only on weekends but I am open for a conversation. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets feel safe and loved. I follow any instructions provided closely—whether it’s feeding routines, medication, or special preferences—and I always take the time to build trust with each animal at their own pace
“Jonny did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats for a few days! There were no issues while we were gone and he kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. Jonny’s calm demeanor provided enough safety for even our shyest cat to come out and interact with him! Would definitely book again!”
“Stephanie was great. I’d rebook her anytime. She was very conscientious with a very social cat, and a very timid cat. She did a great job, cleaned the cat dishes, and the litter.”
About: I had my lovely girl dog Cheyenne for 13 years before she passed and now have saved lost pets in our area and cared for fur babies. I am a stay at home mom and love having the presence of pets around whether providing overnight stays or just hanging out in our yard. We have a 6 foot fenced PVC backyard and plenty of downstairs cozy space in my home office for sleeping and cuddling with me between potty walks.
“HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Our cats were well taken care of, & Zian took lots of pictures to ensure we knew they were doing well. He’s extremely responsive & professional. Thank you Zian!”
“Kelsey is great!! We had to book last minute and Kelsey was so accommodating with working our pup into her schedule! She kept us updated and informed of any issues that came up as well! Would definitely book again!”
“Deliris is one of the most sweetest, best person I've ever met. She really loves animals, Sasha loves Deliris very much because she was so lovable to Sasha and treated her so amazing, I will definitely use Deliris services again”
“Jade has the ultimate connection with animals! I am so grateful we found her to visit with our Princess Priya. Priya was so comfortable with her and that really made our trip easier and gave us peace of mind. 1000% recommend!!!!”
“I really appreciate Anya’s gentle approach with our foster kitty and their attention to detail in the visit reports. A week ago, little dude was living in a park and starving, so he’s going through a lot of change and needs a soft and caring touch. If he becomes a permanent member of the family, we will gladly have Anya back anytime.”
“Very caring and compassionate with my pets! I would highly recommend to any of my friends or family. She treated my cats as her own and always kept me updated. Extremely responsive and helpful with short notices. I can’t even begin to explain how thankful I am for her outstanding services.”
About: I’m a dog mom to 3 sweethearts: Sherlock (15-lb Shih Tzu rescue), Jessie (55-lb American pitbull rescue) and Sasha (40-lb mixed terrier rescue). They all are very reactive to different triggers (people, other dogs, cats, squirrels/wildlife, etc.), and they’ve taught me how to be a better parent. Puppo (18-lb Maltipoo), our 15-year old senior dog, crossed the rainbow bridge in August 2025. Taking care of Puppo for 2 years was a transformative experience - he even taught me how to age with dignity and grace. I work a full-time hybrid job (2 days remote) and Saturday (10:30-1pm), but my calendar will be as up-to-date as possible! I take your pets’ safety very seriously, and will ask questions during our meet-and-greets to ensure their safety under my care. Additionally, I’ll take pictures during walks and cuddles/playtime, and be as communicative as possible. As a dog mom who has used Rover many times, I understand what many parents need!
“Cheryl is amazing! We have booked her services on multiple long trips. She never fails to provide the best care and affection when she pet sits. She provides plenty of pictures and she is genuinely a sincere and kind person.”

First time Rover user and Anya was wonderful. She popped over to play and feed our boys Mac and Mo while we went out of town for the first time since we adopted them. They warmed up to her immediately and i appreciated her attention to play time and she was also very responsive whenever I had reached out. Will definitely book her again! thanks Anya!!!
Jonny did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats for a few days! There were no issues while we were gone and he kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. Jonny’s calm demeanor provided enough safety for even our shyest cat to come out and interact with him! Would definitely book again!
My cat Huckleberry LOVES Jenette. It may sound like a small thing but if you don’t provide compelling playtime, he won’t give you the time of day. Jenette really puts in the work with him and he has a great time with her. Can’t say enough good things. Jenette is the BEST!
Bre and Myah were an absolute treasure. Super communicative, extremely friendly, and so so good with our girls! One of our babies was recently hospitalized and we needed Bre and Myah to help out with SubQs while we were away. They were amazing and gave me constant updates about the process. Highly highly highly recommend!!
Andrea was an incredibly responsive and attentive cat sitter! She stepped in during a time of need and truly went above and beyond my expectations. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such caring hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.
Sadi was so kind and thorough and had wonderful communication. I felt so comfortable leaving my animals in her care. I came back from a long trip and my Malio was so happy, he didn't even mind I was gone because Sadi was so good to him! Will definitely book again.
Janayah is a lovely cat sitter and I highly recommend her. She read and followed all my instructions and took good care of my cat Luna. She provided a couple photos each visit. She played with Luna, kept the litter tidy for her, made sure her food plates were cleaned out and rotated. She has been very responsive in her communication and handled everything well while I was away on vacation. I came back to seeing everything neat and clean in the house as well.
Alyssa took great care of our house and cat while we were away for a week. She was a great communicator, friendly and trustworthy, consistent with timing of her visits, and took great pics of our kitty. She respected our home and made sure to lock up when she left. Thank you Alyssa!
My partner and I hired Jojo to take care of our bearded dragon multiple times over the last few months as we worked through the process of moving across the country. I had to take multiple trips back-and-forth and Jojo was there for us every time. We are devastated that we can’t pack Jojo up with the rest of our apartment, because we can’t imagine finding a better pet sitter!
