Sarah was fantastic! I was very at ease that I had to be away for 9 days and know that my Griz was well cared for with her staying in my home. 10/10 recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs!

Christine was exceptional and took such great care of our home and our pup. She provided frequent updates with photos and videos. We scheduled last minute so finding such great care was a huge relief for us. Would recommend her and use her again in the future.

Lauren is a delightful lady and my dogs love her! One of my BMD’s is very shy around new people. She warmed up to Lauren faster than l have seen her get comfortable with anyone. She was also very respectful of my home. I have already referred her to my son’s family nearby. I will be using her again and again.

It’s been such a pleasure experience having Leigh as a pet sitter for my two babies. She’s very knowledgeable about cats and made my little shy guy comfortable being around her. This is not something many people can do in such a short time. I’ll definitely book with her again.

About: I’ve had dogs of every kind growing up! Also as a military brat I’ve taken care of dogs in all types of situations and places. Whatever you and your dog needs to feel safe and comfortable I will do! I’m currently out for the summer from college, so I figured pet care would be a great thing for me to do while I’m here! I take my dog for walks, feed him, and play with him everyday! I’ll do whatever you need me to do for your pets, in your house!

About: i’ve had animals since i was little whether they where cats or dogs no matter what they where i always felt happier with them around. i couldn’t think of a job i would love and appreciate more than being able to work with any of your animals. i have good patience and can work with any type of animal. i’m looking to broaden my horizons and give your animals some love! i have 2 dogs currently that i help care for that i feed, bath and walk during the week. although i haven’t had an official job working with animals i’ve grown up around them my whole life, my aunt has been a care giver for dogs so i always met so many different types of dogs which made me even more interested. she also worked at a vet and ever since then all i’ve wanted to do was work towards working with animals and i would genuinely love to help any animal that needs support and someone to spend some time with them during the week i can work from 3pm to whenever due to school but as of June 13 ill be able to work anytime. for overnight care i have to leave at 7am and ill return at 3 pm but ill be able to stay all day after i get out of school. i can prove any service like washing your dogs, feeding them, walking them and staying overnight with them along with cleaning up doggy dodo and any other needs you may think of i’m open to learning new things too care any animal. In a client’s home i will respect their space and pay close attention to their care instructions, i want to make sure the pet feels secure in their familiar environment. I also make sure to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection to keep them happy and healthy!

About: While I do not have professional experience, I have a vast experience with many animals. My family has had Pitbulls, Weiner dogs, Cats, and even rats, etc. I know how to care for various types and sizes of pets and frequently take care of my neighbors 3 dogs (walking all at the same time, one big dog and two wild medium ones), and 3 cats. I adore pets. I currently can't have my own due to where I live so I love to visit friends and family to see their pets <3. I am free most days of the week and can schedule around any time during the weekday. While I can work weekends, I will need a schedule ahead of time. I will make sure your "Furr babies" are safe and feel loved while the parents/owners are away or busy. I don't mind cleaning up any mess they make or if they need to be frequently walked every hour. I am also open to bathing and grooming if requested, I have experience with clipping nails, bathing, ear cleaning, brushing, etc.

I highly recommend Jenni L. She and her partner Matt work together, and for this visit, Matt stayed with our beloved cat for several days. I cannot say enough about how reassuring it was to hear from him and see the pictures and videos that he sent of our cat and of the two of them together. Clearly, she loved him and felt very comfortable with him. We will definitely hire them again!

About: ⭐️ Meet and Greets with new clients ⭐️ DETAILED updates with photos/videos ⭐️ Extra Cuddles and Playtime ⭐️Seasoned in professional pet care Hi! I’m Savannah 🤍 your pet’s new favorite sitter (and probably their future bestie 🐾) I’m new to Rover, but I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being around them. At home, I have a sweet cat named Athena, and have always been raised around dogs so i definitely understand each one is different. I’m also a stay-at-home mama to my daughter—so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I don’t just “check in” on pets—I take the time to learn their personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I meet them where they are, giving them love, attention, and playtime so they feel happy and at ease while you’re away 🤍

This was my first time using Rover. I know some of the vet techs at one place I go were sitters in the past. A few vets mentioned Rover as a possible option before & some other people I know... I came home to find my fur kitties happy & in great condition after a 10-11 day vacation. The house was exactly how I left it. Lauren even went above & beyond for items not expected. I was happy my cats didn’t have to go to a small daycare cage & could be out & about relaxed at home. Plus I didn’t have to worry about them picking up any issues at daycare from other animals, haul them all in their carriers back & forth or stress them out. I have multiple kitties and one with allergies who needed individual feeding attention. My one super shy cat had a tooth concern the night before we left & Lauren was even able to check him, which we were surprised because he lets few close enough. When Lauren came to the house for the first time my usual friendly fur babies came right up to her & were happy with her presence. I received pictures while gone & updates on how everything was going. I would definitely request Lauren again in the future. Thanks so much.

Allison was amazing with our pittie mix rescue who was a stray for 2 years and can be anxious and skittish. She immediately loved Allison (more so than she even loves us, I was joking with my husband) and even went to sleep while Allison was watching her which is unheard of for our dog. Highly recommend, Allison is truly a dog whisperer!

Erica was truly beyond incredible—hands down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had for our two golden retrievers. From the moment we left, it was clear how genuinely loving and attentive she was; our dogs absolutely adored her. She went far above and beyond by sending frequent photo updates (without being asked), which gave us so much peace of mind and showed just how happy and comfortable they were. She stayed with them nearly the entire time, treating them like her own, and it made all the difference. You can’t fake that level of care—it was obvious in every interaction and update. We would recommend Erica to anyone without hesitation and will 100% be using her again.

Chandler and Bryan did a fantastic job taking care of our dog, Spinach. We were able to go on vacation with peace of mind that he was in good hands. We really appreciated the daily report and picture. We missed our boy but it made traveling much easier knowing that he was able to stay in our home with someone we trusted and he felt comfortable with.

Leaving our dog, Coco, for a week is never easy—especially since he requires extra care—but Kayla made the entire experience so much easier. She stayed in our home, kept his routine consistent, and handled all of his medications and supplements with great attention and care. Knowing Coco was able to remain in his own environment while being looked after so thoughtfully gave us real peace of mind. Kayla was dependable, communicative, and genuinely compassionate, which truly showed in how well Coco was cared for. We’re incredibly grateful for the level of care she provided and would absolutely trust her again. We highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

This as our third time using Suzann in a short period of time. I cannot say enough about her. I was having surgery and needed her on short notice. Suzann was very accommodating in meeting our needs. If you need a house/pet sitter you can count on, contact Suzann.
