“Liz did a great job watching my elderly cat and dog while I was out of town for two nights! They both have daily medications and special needs and she followed all instructions perfectly.”

“Randi was an awesome dog sitter! Our dog warmed up to her almost immediately. She paid special attention to the specific care our dog needed when she watched her at our place for about a week. She took note of all of Zara’s needs and would send over photos periodically to let us know everything was going well. I would highly recommend her for caring for your animal and I’m sure our dog Zara would too!”

“Alanoud came to our house to help one busy evening for a few hours. It happened to be pouring rain, but she took care of our big, rambunctious pup in good cheer nonetheless. I'm feeling quite confident about having her stay at our home for a few days while we attend a wedding out of town later this month.”

“We’re so thankful to Meg for her attention to detail and excellent communication while we were on an extended road trip. Due to our recent cross country move, our cat was a bit hesitant to socialize, but as a result of Meg’s patience and creativity, Yada came out of her shell! Our dog leans anxious and we’re confident she barely noticed we were gone. Not only that but Meg also left our home in pristine condition. 11/10!”

About: Everything. I have 29 years experience with pets. Have never not been around one. As a kid it was cute, but now I think they’re obsessed with me. I hope your pet will be, too. I am open for all needed reservations, with the exception of other reservations. I am recently between jobs as I was laid off, but I am excited for new opportunities. I offer adaptive style of care. I will listen to the pets needs first and foremost but also try to guide the pet with any manner of instruction from the client.

“Mikayla was a fantastic sitter for our senior dog over the holidays! She was super communicative and kind. Our dog was so calm and happy when we got home, traveling can be hard on her so we really appreciated having someone at our place. She also took good care of our space and everything was just as we left it and super tidy. I would highly recommend Mikayla for her pet sitting needs!”

“Hillary is a fantastic Rover mom. She is more than prepared, diligent, informed, and she was more curious about Winnie as an individual dog than I have ever encountered before on Rover. It made us feel really good, and was just a lovely experience at the Meet and Greet. She made us feel SO at ease leaving our home and our Winnie with her. We have already rebooked with her and she just left yesterday because she did every single thing we asked when it came to Winnie, and she was so respectful of our home. We HIGHLY recommend Hillary! Cannot say enough good things!”

About: Ever since I was 7, I've experienced life with animals— I've had reptiles, fish, cats, dogs, chickens, a guinea pig, birds, and even a pig. So I'd like to say I'm very familiar with all sorts of animals and can provide more than adequate care for your pet! I also have non-professional experience in training cats and dogs! As well as experience administering medication orally for cats (liquids and powders). I am currently home full-time and work remotely so I have fairly open availability. I am most available during the weekdays (M-F 7am-4pm); however, I am flexible with scheduling if your preferred time is outside of that so always feel free to let me know what's best for you and your fur-baby! (I am available rain, snow, or shine, unless it's absolutely insane/unsafe weather such as storms and floods.) For overnight care, please reach out 24-48 hours in advance. When I pet sit at another's home, I ensure that the environment is safe for the pet (i.e.: if the owner forgot to blow out a candle, there's loose string on the ground, etc) and that the pet has their needs met before I leave the home. If I ever have concerns or questions about things within the home or pet-care, I reach out to the client to ensure that I am providing the best care to their fur-baby.

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I grew up with two dogs of my own and have since had the opportunity to pet sit for many different kinds of animals. One of my most memorable experiences was caring for 10 newborn puppies by myself, which taught me just how much patience, attentiveness, and responsibility goes into caring for animals. Whether I’m looking after a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a cat who prefers to do their own thing, I always take the time to understand each animal’s individual needs and personality. For me, the most important part of pet sitting is building trust, both with your pet and with you. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing that your animal is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friend! I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m happy to accommodate your preferred feeding, walking, playtime, and care schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, learn your pet’s routine and personality, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and safe.

About: I have taken care of my own dog and neighborhood dogs for several years. I have experience with both dog walking and sitting. I am a reliable and responsible animal lover. I am available at different hours depending on the day. Please reach out and I will let you know if I am available at that time. I make sure to always be attentive on walks and in the client's home. I will be sure to follow any instructions given to me by the pet owner.

“Avery is an excellent house sitter. The situation was ideal, as she works mainly remote so could spend a few weekdays keeping our sweet, needy dog company. She was respectful of our place and communicative. Couldn't have asked for more!”

Cierra is the best and would highly recommend!! She took great care of our senior Greyhound and stayed in our apartment while we were out of the country for a week on vacation. October is an old lady with some medical conditions so there is always a bit of anxiety when we leave her.. Cierra gave us daily updates and it was obvious that October was getting spoiled the entire time and was in great care!

Another stellar house sitting experience with Kelso - the dogs love them and we can enjoy our trips knowing everything is well taken care of. One of our hellhounds is a serious backyard hunter and got a squirrel while we were gone; Kelso took care of it and let us know what happened, but was unfazed. Amazing! Thank you.

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Cornelia! She is incredibly communicative, always keeps me updated, and makes being away from home so much easier. My cat absolutely adores her (to the point where I’m starting to think he prefers her over me). Even my neighbor went out of her way to tell me how lovely she is! I’ve booked Cornelia twice now, and both times I’ve come home to a house that was somehow in better shape than when I left it. It’s the little things that really set her apart. She’s checked for street-cleaning signs, moved my car, brought in packages and kept me informed, and watered my plants. She’s incredibly thoughtful, reliable, and proactive, and genuinely cares about both my cat and my home. At this point, Cornelia feels more like family than a pet sitter. I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my cat and home, and she will absolutely be my go-to for every trip going forward. Could not recommend her more!

Lauren was an amazing sitter for our sweet senior pup, Nina. Lauren was extremely communicative both leading up to and during their stay with Nina. They were very patient with Nina’s quirks and were great with giving her eye drops and a nightly pill. I trust Lauren fully and look forward to having them back to stay with Nina again. Highly recommend Lauren as a rover!
