“Tatum was great with our pups! We met with her beforehand so she could get to know our boys and their routine. She sent us pictures everyday while we were away and kept us updated on everything that was going on! Would absolutely love to have her watch our pups again!”

“Stacey was absolutely incredible and is now our go to when we need to leave our dog alone. She arrived early and left late making sure he was fully taken care of. Our dog is a new puppy, barely trained with excessive energy. I would love to keep her to ourselves but recommend her for absolutely any dog!”
“Jessica was fantastic! She was super flexible when some personal issues kept me from being able to meet with her. She sent daily photos and my kiddos looked like they had a great time!”


“Sidney was a great sitter. She got along well with Jasmine. I told her she could leave whenever she wanted to because my husband was on his way home. My husband said she stayed till he got home because there was a bad storm and she thought Jasmine may be afraid. I have already booked her for our next trip.”

“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our 12-year-old dog. She actually house that for us and we could tell our dog was very happy and comfortable when we got home. She was very clean and tidy around our house, sent us updates with pictures every day and replied to any text that we had very timely. We appreciated her, taking care of our fur baby and our home. We will definitely book her again! Highly recommend her.”

“Katie was very awesome and so professional. Gave me regular updates and kept my nerves calm (as it was my first time with Rover). Will definitely be using her again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Alexandra! She took amazing care of our huskies, Kiera and Monty, while we were out of town and house sat for us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were getting lots of love, attention, and companionship while we were away. Alexandra communicated with us throughout the stay and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. It was clear our dogs were happy and well cared for the entire time. She also left our home very clean and tidy when we returned. We’re so grateful for the care she provided and would absolutely trust her with Kiera and Monty again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“We had a great experience with Suvanna. She took care of my two large dogs for more than three days. She followed all the instructions and stuck to my dogs’ schedule. Both of them were really happy with her. I would definitely take her help again next time.”

“We are grateful for Kimberly’s patience and care she had for Daphne. Daphne is a sweet girl with arthritis and some dementia. Kimberly was the perfect caregiver for her. We knew Daphne was in good hands. Thank you, Kimberly”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that animals just seem to love me, and I know how to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ve also cared for a senior dog, so I’m experienced with giving medication and making sure pets get the extra care they need. Taking care of pets fits right into my daily routine because I’m almost always available to care for your fluffy buddies. I’m usually free and flexible especially with having school and work outside of Rover, so your pets will always get the attention they deserve! When I care for pets in my client’s home, they get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get outside for potty breaks after meals. My goal is to keep them happy, comfortable, and cared for just like they would be with you.
“Patricia took fantastic care of our dog when she stayed with him for four nights. He developed diarrhea during that time and she cared for him like he was her own pet. She communicated with me throughout the stay and sent photos too. When our dog needs care in the future, Patricia will be our first choice.”


About: I have always grown up with pets in my house hold, i have always token care of them when no one else did and gave them the love they deserve. We are with them their entire lives, while they are with us for only a portion. I will be gentle and patient with them until they gained my trust. I can bathe them and play with them too, i cannot groom though. But i can make them smell all yummy! College student! I do go to college all year, even in the summer! I don’t have an outside job, so the only thing taking me away from your furry family is school! I’m always open and i can always get to your fur baby’s when needed! I have 1 doggy of my own and she has fear aggression towards other people and dogs, i’ve learned to work around her personality and to go forward. I bathe my dog by hand inside my home every 1-2 months (depends on if she gets dirty, she’s got a self-cleaning coat) and she gets fed every night! (she eats at her own pace so i just top off her bowls) She is trained to sit, paw, talk, wait, and lay down! She is my first daughter and my soul dog! I love her to death!!
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, I currently own a very well trained and friendly chocolate lab named Gypsy! She’s a five and a half, I’ve had her since she was six weeks old. She’s my baby and I will treat yours like I treat mine… with one the best love and attention! I’ve also cared for dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and personalities… I’ve seen it all and done it all, at the end of the day it’s my pleasure to help others out. My spouse and I work from home and hardly leave the house during the week unless we take my dog Gypsy on a walk. This making us the perfect pair for dogs and cats requiring 24 hours care. I have a fenced backyard and a friendly dog who is more than happy to have some company. We can also easily crate any animal.
About: i love dogs and especially my dogs i’ve always cared for them so much they’re my favorite animal and to be able to do this as a side hustle is a big blessing i currently work nights wednesday thursday and friday trying to save up for a new car and for school so i can finish paying off my classes i treat my dog how i would want mine to be treated i take her out every morning as soon as i wake up and make her food while she’s outside and usually take a little time to play with her outside
