“Avery was so great with my senior gals that require a lot of care and attention. She also took great care of my home while I was away and was very communicative throughout the stay.”
“I have a puppy who gets anxious being alone, and he had a blast with Anna. Anna is lovely -communicative, professional, and very comfortable to be around. It's clear that she loves pets, and my pup and I are glad to have met her!”
“Courtney was a fantastic cat sitter. She took wonderful care of her and handled Gaia’s asthma medication with so much patience and confidence, even during those first few days when it can be a bit tricky. It was such a relief knowing Gaia was in calm, capable hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Courtney gave her, and I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
“Fantastic three days! Carrie was thoughtful, communicative, and always on time. She took such wonderful, gentle care of our senior pup. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Limari was great w my pups, she was communicative and flexible with my newness to the app in a few years. The pups seems happy and the house looked better than I left it! I'll certainly be using her services in the future”
“Katherine was such a great help for us when we went to Japan. She provided many pictures and updates and took the puppies on many walks. I plan on booking her in the future.”
“Gabriella was so great!! She sent me the cutest photos and was very communicative with how it was going while I was away. My dog was even willing to go on a walk with her which is a huge accomplishment because Nama usually doesn’t like to leave the house if I’m not home. Looking forward to having Gabriella watch Nama again in the future!”
About: I’m currently a proud cat mom to a sweet orange tabby named Cheese! I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. I previously volunteered with the Dog Adoption & Welfare Group, where I walked, bathed, fed, cleaned up after, and played with dogs regularly. I’ve cared for energetic puppies, gentle senior dogs, and large breeds, and I’m comfortable handling different temperaments. I genuinely love spending time with animals and always treat every pet like my own—with patience, attention, and lots of love. I’m a freelance graphic designer with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. I’m available for morning and evening visits or walks, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. While I’m generally unavailable during midday hours, I make sure mornings and evenings are calm, consistent, and full of care and attention. Whether it’s breakfast cuddles or a peaceful evening check-in, your pet will have a reliable and loving companion. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect—just like I would my own. I make sure your pet stays safe, comfortable, and calm in their familiar environment. I always follow your specific care instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to favorite toys and routines. I pay close attention to details, whether that’s making sure doors are securely closed, food is stored properly, or litter boxes and water bowls are kept clean and fresh. I believe in building trust through consistency, patience, and open communication—so you’ll always get updates and photos, and your pet will always get gentle, loving care.
“Jessica took wonderful care of our boxer. We appreciated her great communication and updates with photos while we were away. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy dog. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Laura was fantastic! I have a 1 year old and an 11 year old dog, each with their own needs. She was wonderful and communicative during the 5 day I was away. I felt completely comfortable with her taking care of them. And when I came home, everything was in great shape and the dogs seemed very happy. I will definitely hire her again.”
“William went above and beyond taking care of Hazel while we were out of the country for a week. He kept us posted with regular updates and followed our instructions to a T. Hazel is a relatively high-maintenance dog and William followed our instructions carefully during his time with her. He took her on neighborhood hikes to keep her active and sent us daily pics to keep us at ease that she was being well taken care of. Responsible and reliable, I highly recommend William for dog sitting / house sitting.”
“Amanda was amazing with our pup over the holiday weekend. Our anxious dog settled with her so quickly and even came to her for pets and play. We'll definitely be reaching out to book Amanda again!”
About: I’m an 18 year old college student with a passion for helping animals and people. I have experience working with dogs and cats in an animal shelter and on my free time (frequently) I care for friends and family’s pets, which gives me hands-on experience providing attentive and nurturing support to everyone’s furry bestfriend.Im on my way to becoming a nurse as well! Im currently working a part-time jobs that hardly gives me hours, so that means I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am also doing classes online so it makes my availability flexible. In a clients home I will create a safe and loving environment by following all or any instructions given, such as feeding times, walks, and any routines. I will make sure any gates, doors and surrounding are always supervised and safe. I also love keeping areas clean and organized. Trust is an important factor, so I will provide frequent updates and communicate regularly to give some peace of mind.
“First time having a new sitter take care of my pups in a very long time and we got so lucky with Kathleen! She took great care of both my dogs, administered meds, and provided regular updates that helped me also enjoy my time off. Absolutely recommend!”
“The best gift when you can't take your companions on a trip is to know someone will take care of them and give you a peace of mind. Ashley did. She is amazing and is a great communicator. I left behind a 14 year old blob and a 6 years skittish lab and I was worried about the younger pup. It was the 14 year old senior that kept Ashley up at night. Ashley kept me posted on the situation, we kept the communication open to make sure Hunter is ok. Things happened but the best way to know how awesome your substitute is, is to experience their problem solving ability. Ashley got everything under control. I highly recommend Ashley and would love to get her help again. She is definitely more than 5 stars rating.”
“Kim is THE BEST! She house sat and took care of our dog Lila (120 lbs) and was beyond what we had hoped for. She sent pictures and updates multiple times every day and our shy girl absolutely loved her. We will absolutely be using her again in the future. Cannot recommend her enough”
“Kevin was super easy to communicate with and stayed in touch while I was out of town. He was extremely responsible and took great care of my special needs dogs. I’ll definitely re-hire Kevin!”
About: If you’re looking for someone who absolutely adores animals AND is responsible/ reliable then I am your gal! I have a profound love and respect for any animal and would love to share my services/experience with you! I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was in diapers and have developed such a deep respect and love for any pet I’ve come across. I’ve had cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, you name it! I’ve raised the majority of them from their baby stage such as their puppy/kitten stage. I also have had the pleasure of giving them a beautiful life and led them into their senior stage. I also volunteer at cat shelters and have pet sat for friends and family members. I make it a priority to provide a safe and welcoming environment so any pet under my care can feel comfortable with me. I also love to play for whatever time your pet needs and give joy to every pet under my care. My past clients would describe me as very reliable, patient, warm, and very flexible and understanding of certain needs your pet may have. I understand every furry friend is unique and different from one another so any accommodation or request you may have, I am more than open to adjusting! I currently have three of my own. I have a husky, shih tzu and a Siamese cat! So I have a very broad experience with different sized pets and I’ve enjoyed every second of it. I have a very open and flexible schedule and I would love to provide my services to you! As I work with the local district, I have returned back to work for the fall semester. However, my work day ends at 3pm! So it still allows me to have a very open/flexible schedule. I can do weekdays after 3pm and weekends including holidays! I’m available from early noon to late at night. Weekends include anytime after 6pm. I have a gated porch with lots of room for play and a quiet calm neighborhood for long walks and quality time with your pet. I can also administer medication and crate or provide any instructions left by the owner.

Shirley was a wonderful sitter! Sent great photos and updates multiple times a day, and both of my pets seemed so happy—even our cat, who is usually shy and hides from sitters, spent her weekend out and about in the living room. Would definitely ask her to care for our girls again!
Avery is a wonderful dog sitter, it was a very reassuring knowing our old boy Kahu was in such good hands while we were in Japan. She sent us lots of photos and updates and was very observant of Kahu's needs, noticing he had an issue with his paw and nail which she treated. She looked after our house too. We're so glad to have found a dog sitter we trust so much!
Jovi can be quite particular with whom he is comfortable with, so it was a great sign that he did not bark at Polli at our meet and greet. When she arrived for sitting, he was just fine with her in the apartment and didn't try to bark at her to leave. It is always nice to feel your dog is comfortable when leaving! I was gone for a week and when I got home Jovi was clearly well cared for. Polli did a great job getting new pony tails for him so he could see, the house was clean, and Jovi was in good spirits!
Grace is the most caring and thoughtful person you would ever have to care for your furry baby. She sends so many updates and always treats my baby girl Gigi with so much love and care! Gigi loves it when Grace comes and stays with her, and I feel so at ease knowing she is in great hands. You can truly tell that Grace loves animals and is the sweetest soul. Thank you so so much, Grace! Gigi and I thank you and love you! 🐕 💕✨
This was my first time using Rover. I was very concerned as my older dog had some health issues arise right before I left. Alvin was amazing. He was constantly advising me about my dogs and any change of normal behavior. He was able to take care of the meds she needed and all was good. I was also surprised my dogs went for walks with him, as I was certain they would not go with someone else. He truly cared that my dogs were healthy including mentally making sure they had activity. He stayed at my house and left it the same condition I left it. I would highly recommended using Alvin and plan to use him again on my next trip. He also took care of watering my plants while I was gone.
We had a great experience with Paola watching our boy! He is anxious with new people, but warmed up to her super quickly. We love the photos she sent us while we were away. She kept the house clean/the same as it was before we left as well, which we really appreciated coming home to a clean house. Thank you for everything! 🩷
Aleena is absolutely wonderful! She recently watched our two senior Chihuahuas, Piggy and Lucy, and we couldn't be happier with the care they received. Since our dogs are older, we are always a bit nervous leaving them, but Aleena made us feel at ease right away. She was incredibly responsive and provided consistent updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear that they felt completely comfortable around her and really thrived with her company. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely kind to animals, we highly recommend Aleena. We will definitely be hiring her again!
Michelle did an amazing job with our 14 week old puppy, Jackie. I was so nervous to find someone who would watch her carefully and give her the type of care we wanted her to have, being such a young pup and all. Michelle went above and beyond to follow our instructions carefully, show up right on time, play with her a lot, and provide constant updates! For a worried dog parent, having this level of comfort with our dog-sitter was everything. She also left the house in pristine condition! She really cared for our fur baby and it showed!! I was worry free the entire time, which is the best way to feel when leaving your puppy in the hands of someone new!
Kelsey last-minute covered for us for a week when our sitter fell through. She came to meet us at a momemt's notice and our dog immediately took to her. Sje also happens to be a wonderfully kind person. She was so responsive and responsible with our dog and our home. So much so that we asked her to come back for another week! Don't hesitate to book with Kelsey- she's worth it and I promise you won't be disappointed.
Jessica was incredibly kind and patient with our super anxious rescue pup. She adapted to make sure both my dogs were comfortable all week, and asked very insightful questions to guide her along the way. I would absolutely ask Jessica to sit for us again and I would highly recommend her services. We feel very lucky to have found her!
