“Lisana had great communication throughout the house sit, left the house tidy, and my dog was happy and relaxed when I got home. Would definitely book with her again!!”
“Sinthiana was just amazing! She came to our house and took such good care of all our dogs! She sent us pictures throughout the day and it was even thanksgiving! My dogs are HUGE and she gave them so much love! Thank you Sinithiana for taking care of our big dogs!”
“Naomi did really good. She did her homework before she did a meet and greet, she arrived and already knew the dogs by name. For the actual house sitting, she arrived on time, kept me up to date, and left the house clean. Most importantly, my dogs responded well to her and it was obvious to see she is a dog person.”
“Jeremiah looked after my home and 5 year old rottweiler while we were away for a week. He was very professional and kept me updated on my pup and house daily. We will be using Jeremiah for sittings for the future. Thank you!”
“Charlotte was an amazing dogsitter to our pup! She was responsive throughout the entire process, sending frequent updates and amenable to all of our requests. She stayed at our house and left it exactly as she found it, including a happy and comfortable dog! Would recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dogsitter!”
“Sarah was great with my three fur children! She sent pics and updates while I was away. And when I returned I had three happy pups! Will book Sarah again for my next trip!”

“Christopher stepped in at the last minute when my usual sitter cancelled, and absolutely saved the day! He was thorough, professional, asked insightful questions, and ensured I came home to two very happy cats! A true life saver”
About: I have a genuine connection to animals and care deeply for them. In my own home I care for a senior dog and two bunnies. I always give my animals my first and my best. My schedule is flexible as I prepare for graduate school. My goal is to make some connections with families that need additional pet care that I can work my schedule around to accommodate theirs. In my client's home I will be sure to understand and fulfill all of the specific expectations they have for their pets. I will provide love, comfort and a safe environment for any and all pets. While you are away, at work or just need a little extra support I will make sure your sweet pet feels all the love they are missing.

“Amazing! I have to admit….we were a bit nervous using Rover for the first time but the Odalys were great! I totally recommend to anyone who needs a house/dog sitter. Very communicative. Our little dog loved them!”
“Melisa was amazing! She took great care of our home and our 2 senior dogs and at the last minute as well. She is definitely someone we will be contacting again.”
“Kelly was beyond AMAZING. After having some rough experiences with past sitters, we were nervous to leave the pups again. However, Kelly went above and beyond our requests, stayed in communication with us and totally set our minds at ease. Our pups were happy and healthy when we got home - we could tell they were happy with their care as well :) We couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
“Ericka calmed all my fears about leaving my reactive pup with her! She sent me lots of pictures and just took such good care of them! My dogs loved Ericka 🥰 (I’m only begrudgingly leaving this review bc I selfishly want to keep her for myself!)”
“Lauren is an absolute gem! She’s my first sitter since moving to the area and I felt at ease when I first met her that my pups & house would be in good hands. We plan on booking her for future dates.”

Alta Vista pet parents share their Rover experiences
Shayla did such an awesome job taking care of Cooper. She sent lots of pictures, videos, and kept me updated on how he was doing. I would trust her to stay again in our home anytime. She was sweet and respectful and I can tell she really loved on our boy. She took him on walks, played with him, and followed all the instructions. She took care of our house and took out/brought in the trash and recycle bins for us. We are so glad we found her and will definitely be using her again in the future.
Amelie did amazing with our pups! She really catered to their personalities and provided the attention/love they needed. She had great communication with us the entire visit and included daily pictures. To top it off, she cleaned the kennels, mats, bowls and living area! We will be reaching out again for future visits!
I can’t recommend Allison enough! She took care of my dog Beowulf for a full week, and from start to finish, she was everything you’d want in a sitter: caring, reliable, and clearly passionate about animals. Beowulf isn’t just a pet, he’s family, and Allison treated him that way. She made sure he was well-fed, played with, and given plenty of attention and affection. I could tell from the updates and photos she shared that he was relaxed, happy, and truly enjoying himself. Because of Allison, I was able to actually relax during my time away, no stress, no worry, just total peace of mind knowing he was in the best hands possible. Her calm presence and dependable nature make her an absolute gem. If you’re looking for someone to trust with your furry best friend, look no further. Beowulf will definitely be staying with her again!
"Never judge a book by its cover" has never been more true than with Jared. Let your pets be the judges! Jared is the sweetest, most loving person with my cats and I can only surmise that he is that way with all pets he cares for. I have come to know Jared over time; he helped me rescue a cat, went with me to the vet, and later, when I was away working out of town, he took the cat to the vet again for an appointment to get "fixed", picked him up afterwards, and cared for him while I got home the next day. Who else does that???
Jennifer was so fantastic! Our dog adored her and is completely exhausted from all their walking and playing. She went above and beyond what we requested. And she really, really cares about dogs. We had forgotten the sidewalks in Texas could get beastly this early in the summer and forgot his booties, but we needn’t have worried—Super Jen picked Willy up and carried him home! She is truly fantastic. We have had TONS of dogsitters over the years, many of them through Rover, and Jennifer is our absolute favorite (and Willy’s, too!)
Nev was quick to respond to any/all requests we had on a quick overnight trip out of town. We have a veryyyyyy hyper Goldendoodle pup and they handled his crazy behavior with ease. House was left in the same condition as we left originally which is always a major plus!
We cannot thank Mel enough for dog sitting. It is truly amazing to have someone you can fully trust with your fluffy babies when you are away home. They not only give our dogs the best care, but they are flexible with any last minute changes including extending dog sitting. They send us many pictures and videos of them everyday, and keep us updated on everything. We are so lucky and blessed to have found the best dog sitters that we can trust our lives with and will be always going back to them.
