“Rhonda was fantastic! We needed a cat sitter on short notice and turned to the Rover app for the first time—so glad we found her. She responded quickly and was happy to help. We met beforehand and she was so friendly and easy to talk to. While we were away, she kept in great contact, sent us adorable pictures, and clearly took wonderful care of our cat, Q. He warmed up to her and trusts her, which says a lot! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book her again.”


“Laura visited Max on Thanksgiving while we were away. We got so many pictures. Laura is great about communication and with our kitty! Will continue to book her visits as it makes all the difference for Max :)”


“Cecilia was absolutely great! She communicated well and asked about the dogs habits and needs before she went to visit so she knew about any special needs. She also sent a ton of pictures which was very much appreciated. I live that she spent so much time with our pets and made sure they weren't lonely or bored.”


“Ally is SO sweet! She really helped ease my mind leaving my foster kittens home while I worked by checking on them, playing with them, feeding them, and sending me the cutest photos! Great communication, very professional - highly recommend!”


“Jennifer is a wonderful sitter who took our dog for a walk after feeding him. She is highly responsible and caring and I plan to have her help out often. Thanks so much Jennifer!”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and truly love caring for them. I grew up with a variety of pets including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and bunnies, which gave me a deep appreciation for animals of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience providing pet care, including overnight stays, administering medications, and keeping pets comfortable and happy in their home environment. I always focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine—whether that’s mealtime schedules, daily walks, playtime, or a bit of training and structure. I’m also experienced in caring for senior pets and can support their specific needs with patience and care. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can also send you daily updates/photos of your fur babies so you know they are being well taken care of! I have both a dog and cat that I take care of every day. My dog is a three year old energetic lab/springer mix and I have a one year old orange kitty. I love getting outside and having playtime or going on walks with my dog and playing with my cat. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, following any specific instructions you provide—like feeding schedules, medications, or routines. When pets stay with me, my home is set up to be a safe and welcoming space where they can relax and feel at ease. During drop-in visits, I’m respectful of your home and make sure to keep everything just as I found it. In all cases, I take the time to build trust and move at each pet’s pace to ensure they feel secure and loved. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pets.

About: I am Annie! 29 years old and currently working part time at mayo while I wait to get into nursing school! I have a 4 year old dog, she is a spayed female English springer and field spaniel mix! About 35 pounds and she goes everywhere with me, she is friendly with dogs, cats, humans and kids! Before I decided to start the nursing program I was a vet tech for 8 years and pride in my experience of caring for animals. I have delt with ill animals, medications/injections, non ambulatory, incontinent, aggression and more. I have done dog and house sitting for about 10 years, it started with friends and family and continued to grow. I am easy going, active and very independent. Not married and no kids so I have a lot of free time! I’d love to help with a short stay, long stay or drop in/walk! 🐶🐱 FYI: I do not board pets in my home. I am not sure how to take that service/feature off of my profile. I apologize for the inconvenience! Pet care is part of my daily schedule, I take pride in it and love the companionship. If I didn’t have my animals, I’d be lost. Safety first. I will always go above and beyond for your pets, as if they were my own! Our pets are apart of our family.

“we had a great experience. ayden came over one day to meet the birds and see where their food was stored. each day she sent us a message after her visit. she also sent us pictures. it is hard to find people who are comfortable with birds and Ayden cared for our flock. she even noticed a box that we had delivered to our porch and she put it inside for us.”


“Alyssa was so great with communication and sending us photos and documentation of her visits with our dog! We are super grateful for her care and will absolutely be booking her again in the future”


About: Every since I was young I would walk dogs for friends and family. Once I finally turned 18 I was able to work for a doggie daycare! Talk about dream come true! Hey pet parents! I’m currently on a pretty laid back schedule! I understand how important their needs are! I promise to always do my best when having your fur child/children under my care ❤️ (I also would like to mention that the rates are high because this app only gives a very small percent of what you pay) I don’t mind long walks, and trips to the park! Snuggles and movies work too 🩵 I can provide any needed service for your fur baby/ babies! (I also would like to mention that the rates are high because this app only gives a very small percent of what you pay)

About: I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for 3+ years. Growing up with dogs, I’ve always been big into play dates, walks, and giving them lots of love. I’m big into walking/running and would be more than happy to have your dog tag along if you’d like! I do work full time, typically between the hours of 7-4, but my schedule can vary from day-to-day. With my dogs in the past, I’ve always made time to accompany, exercise, and entertain them because they deserve it. I will always make time pets of any kind. Pets with me will not only be in good hands, they will be cared for, loved, and exercised like all great dogs deserve. With me previously having dogs who were very full of energy, I enjoy doing all of this stuff more than anything. I can hardly look at a dog without petting it!

About: Growing up, we always had animals in the house! I enjoy being around them, & giving them back the love & care they so selfishly show to us. I would LOVE to take care of yours while you’re away :) I work a full time job, but I am off most Tuesday afternoons, Fridays, and weekends. M-Th is usually busy for me, but beyond that I am open (with timely notice). I am more than willing to visit your house to take care of your pet and their needs! Whether that means playing with them indoors, or outdoors (no matter the conditions) I would be happy to. I currently do not offer pet sitting overnight in my household / yours, just due to my family’s current schedule.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I’ve been lucky to have such a wonderful soul pets. I’m also my church’s resident dogsitter, so I have a lot of experience with watching other people‘s pets. I do have a dog of my own, but he loves everything and everyone he meets! I’m currently working part time so will be at home and have a lot of time to spend with your pet. I have a dog of my own who loves everything and everyone he meets, so will be a great friend to your dog. I also have a cat who will be indifferent! I haven’t on fenced yard, but I do have inground leashes. I have a dog of my own that will be a great friend to your dog, and a cat that will be indifferent, lol! I also have a crate if that is needed.

“DeeDee was fantastic in every way. I didn't have to stress about the cares my cat received while away. Communication was great. We met up beforehand to exchange keys and to introduce one another. All worked out great and I couldn't be happier. Would definitely recommend!”
