“Tina was very communicative and thorough with her questions ahead of the visit to ensure she had everything needed day of without any uncertainties. She also met our dogs twice ahead of the visit for everyone's mutual benefit and comfort. Tina provided detailed notes of our dogs outings, feeding, and activities, along with photos of their time. I know our animals had a great visit with Tina and would recommend her to any perspective sitting needs.”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover & care taker. I also own a small business making healthy pet treats, so your special fur face will be spoiled! I have experience with reactive dogs, behavioral problems, senior animals, medical issues, & a wide variety of species. I base my care around the animals needs, not my schedule. I am patient, steady, & calm. I have loads of engagement toys, puzzles & activities to keep your pet happy & stimulated. I have a very flexible schedule & work from home, so I can adjust around you & your pets' needs whether it's early morning, last minute, or before bed. I do not have a fenced yard, so I do not leave dogs outside at my home. I walk & take park trips multiple times a day. I have 3 dogs & a cat who are used to new friends visiting. I do not crate my dogs in my home, but am happy to in your home.
“Kathryn is amazing. Extremely attentive to my baby’s needs and super flexible with our schedule. Her communication goes beyond expectation and has made our experience of rover great!”
“Joan did a fantastic job taking care of our blind cat and flock of backyard chickens. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking or a pet sitter!”
“Maggie was awesome and went above and beyond helping my geriatric Maine coon get her thyroid medication while I was away. She was super communicative, friendly, and patient even when Nalia (my cat) had her usual stranger danger up front. I could tell Nalia was healthy and happy when I returned home, and she really seemed to warm up to Maggie. Definitely will be asking for Maggie’s help again in the future.”
“Darby was so great! She let our three dogs out for a potty break after my dog just had surgery and took great care of him. She did a lot for my dog with him needing help using the bathroom and wearing post surgery clothes/cone. She was super loving and friendly with the dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Steve was a wonderful cat sitter, I felt much better leaving on a trip knowing my cat has a buddy to play with. Great communication, will book again!”
“Stephanie checked on our dogs while we were away for a long day. She left a great recap of their time together and shared a few pics. Communicative and exactly what we needed when we were away the whole day!”
“Stacy was so helpful and responded quickly with our last minute request. She did a fantastic job taking care of our flock of backyard chickens and our blind cat, catering to special instructions and sending the best photos. We really appreciate her help!”
“I’m really happy I picked Anna to look after my cats! She gave me peace of mind about leaving them while I was on vacation, knowing they’d be well cared for. I’d definitely ask her to watch them again in the future!”
About: I have experience taking care of a high medical needs cat. I also have experience with deaf and blind cats. I understand each pet is an individual and will adjust my care as I get to know them. Some pets love human interaction and others need their space. I’m absolutely ready to kiss and hug them or give them the distance they need to feel safe. Nothing like the smell of fresh litter in the morning! I am a cat mom to 2 playful, cuddly adopted babies. I recently became a volunteer at a cat shelter, which gives me so much purpose. I have a full time job Monday-Friday. I am looking to occasionally pet sit on weekends and early mornings on weekdays. Home is a sacred place. I will treat your pets and your space respectfully. I can send you all the photos you need to feel comfortable, or video call you. I am comfortable cleaning up after your pet, and giving them all the cuddles and words of affirmation they need while you are away.
“I am so incredibly grateful for Annmarie! When I returned home from my week-long trip, my cat seemed completely calm and content - none of the usual signs of stress and dysregulation that typically happen when I’m away. It was such a relief to see how comfortable and happy she was. My cat is very sensitive and generally doesn’t take well to strangers, but it’s clear that she took to Annmarie right away. The communication throughout my trip was excellent - I felt completely secure knowing my cat was in such capable, caring hands. Annmarie’s care was particularly excellent in every way. I couldn’t have asked for better pet sitting, and I would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
“Megan is awesome!! Megan was able to help us with feeding and checking in on our cats. Our cats have different foods/needs and Megan handled it all well! Definitely will use for pet sitting again!!”
“Madalyn was super quick to respond to my booking inquiry! We so appreciate her being down to take care of our cat who has very specific dietary/mediation needs. It was our first time using rover and it was so nice to go out of town for the weekend and know someone experienced would be able to stop in and handle our cats needs from the comfort of our home.”
About: I have experience watching family members’ dogs. I particularly enjoy taking them for a walk or jogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages. My favorite breed is golden retrievers. I currently work full time Monday through Friday. I have availability early mornings, evenings and weekends. I am flexible during these times depending what is needed. I am very observant in paying attention to how cats and dogs are doing without their owner, such as eating, drinking and going to the bathroom. Pets tend to warm up quickly to me.
“Jennifer was great with both of my dogs. One is a bit fearful but she was able to win him over easily. They were so nice and relaxed when I got home, it was so nice to know they were so well cared for”
“Maggie has done such an incredible job with our Working-Line GSD and miniarure American-Eskimo. She's extremely thorough, kind, and communicative. I'm so grateful to have found a sitter who is this dog-literate; our little one is a sensitive rescue and took to Maggie within minutes- faster than I've seen her take to anyone else in the past. I would definitely recommend Maggie to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much, Maggie, for your hard work and dedication to make sure the pups get all the care they need during the day! Our whole family could not be happier with your services!”

Laura S.Star Sitter
“Laura truly cared for my two dogs like they were her own. She was very attentive to their individual needs and quirks and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable with her. My one dog, Freddie, is fearful of new people and was initially skeptical of Laura. By the end of the week, she was easily his favorite human! It is a huge relief knowing your critters are well taken care of and well loved when you're away. She sent us regular photos and updates and was wonderful all around. Highly recommend!”

“Vanessa is such a kind and empathetic soul! My two dogs adore her with all their beings and always want to go home with her haha. She's very detail-oriented and incredibly trustworthy. She has the sweetest touch with cats, and you can't help but feel the warmth and kindness radiating from her when in a room with your babies. As a fellow Rover sitter, I trust her wholeheartedly with my pets and know anyone would be lucky to have her as your sitter.”

Jessa E.
“We’ve trusted Jessa to care for our golden retriever, Dolly, since she was a puppy, and she’s been incredible every step of the way. Jessa has a natural comfort with dogs and connected with Dolly right away. Over the past four years, she’s been consistently responsible, reliable, and attentive—always keeping us updated and following instructions to the letter. Knowing Dolly is in such good hands has given us total peace of mind. Jessa is also wonderful with Dolly’s care and routines. She takes her on regular walks, gives her plenty of love and attention, and has even bathed her with patience and care (no easy task with a golden retriever!). Dolly absolutely adores her, and it’s clear Jessa treats her like one of her own. We highly recommend Jessa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
