We love booking Emily and her husband to take care of our cat Lola whenever we travel. They are always punctual, and make sure they spend lots of time giving her attention. When we come home, Lola is in great spirits!

Sarah cared for our 2 cats with love and kindness. She followed all instructions and sent us updates with pics. We could just tell that our fur babies were happy in her care! Sarah was even very patient with our shy guy. Highly recommend and would love for her to drop in for us next time!

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, including work in animal clinic settings. I’ve babysat dogs where I provided playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of attention and treats. I’m also experienced with small pets, as I care for my own bunny, so I understand their gentle handling and daily needs. I’m patient, reliable, and truly love making pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I am currently available during weekdays for drop-ins and walks/ playtime. For boarding and more availability on weekends please feel free to message me! Thanks. I have many years working as a Vet assistant at animal hospitals. I assure every pet is in safe hands with me, I will always go above and beyond for them as if they are my own.

I cannot say enough good things about Marcela. I think she is a cat whisperer- she is just so patient and good with our cats. They are usually very skittish with new people and she has been so calm with them that they have really taken to her. She responds in a great amount of time, provides great info, and knows her stuff. There is no one else I’d trust to watch my cats!!

David was a great sitter. He wrote me a message and sent photos of my two cats every day. When I got home the litters were clean and my cats had plenty of clean food and water. David also made time on his visits to play and cuddle with my cats which I really appreciated. I definitely recommend David for pet sitting!

Lin and her husband were so kind and welcoming to my cat Chaz, they provided him a separate room to get used to his new setting, as well as allowing him to roam around, and socialize. They also kept me updated and sent many pictures of him doing fine, which put me at ease on my trip.

Thanks again Hieu and Anna for being so attentive to our pup! Prior to the drop-in, our dog had a stressful experience in the morning that put her on edge for the rest of the day--Hieu and Anna were so great about making sure she felt safe and comfortable. We're so glad to keep working with her new fave aunties!

About: I have two rescues at home who I adore. I would love to care for your beloved pups! I have a calm demeanor and I am open to all breed types. Dogs seem to like me, and I've even gotten timid ones to warm up to me. I am currently in college full-time, so my availability for sitting is limited to weekends. Depending on my schedule, I may be able to do a couple drop-ins during the week. In a client's home, I would give all my attention to your dog(s) and follow all given instructions for care. I am happy to walk, play with, feed, and give belly rubs to your good girl or boy. I am respectful of others' property and privacy.

Faced with a last minute cancellation by our regular pet sitting service, we were fortunate to find the Rover App and through the App, Tresa. Our cats, normally skittish, readily welcomed her and Tresa’s daily reports and pictures reassured us they were in the very best hands. Looking forward to being a repeat customer 🙏

Shelby did a wonderful job sitting for my two cats while I was out of town! She ensured they were fed, watered and overall well. She played with them and hung out with them to give them some companionship while I was away. Her communication and follow up is excellent. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a cat sitter!

About: I have over 10 years of experience owning and caring for my own cats and other pets, giving me a strong understanding of daily routines, behavior, and individual needs. I’ve also cared for friends’ animals for 5+ consecutive days at a time, providing dependable, attentive care while they’re away. I’m comfortable with basic grooming tasks such as cleaning ears, eyes, and paws, as well as safely clipping claws, making sure pets stay happy, healthy, and well cared for. I currently am working part-time. My life outside of this revolves around my kitties and making sure they stay happy and healthy. We have dedicated majority of our basement to their wellbeing with cat towers, toys, space to let their energy out and have a litter robot for their comfort. I have availability everyday between 11am-4pm to care for other pets. I have long term experience caring for cats and have grooming items, such as nail clippers, paw balm and pet wipes for face and ears. Since I currently own a cat with diagnosed hyperesthesia and anxiety, having a prescribed medication and certain routine to follow, I am accustomed to taking care of a range of needs.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a boy. In our family we've had multiple corgis, a German Shepherd, a plott hound and a Goldendoodle. I'm experienced with puppies, seniors and every stage of life in between. My schedule is currently quite flexible to help with your dogs. I update my availability on the app calendar, so just let me know your timetable. When caring for dogs in their own home, I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions, so their routine stays consistent. I provide walks for exercise, fresh food and water at the times requested, and plenty of positive attention. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and needs, whether that means playtime or quiet companionship. I also keep the home tidy, respect the space, and send updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

Ben was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat, bearded dragon and fish tank. We loved his notes and photos after every visit. Ben showed up like clockwork, two times a day for 10 days. We will definitely ask Ben to come back any time we travel.

Lin took great care of Bean. She is thorough in her communication to enusure she is taking the best care of your pet. She sent pictures, videos and was responsive to questions. Bean generally hides when someone comes into the house, however she quickly acclimated to Lin and was social showing a high level of trust. I would recommend Lin!

Sophie has cared for our cat multiple times now. We love having her! She always leaves things clean and shares a photo of the food bowl if he is too hidden away as he tends to be. The daily updates are brief, but we've had the reverse (long chatty updates with a super messy cat sitter) and prefer Sophie's reliability. We are lucky to have found her!
