About: I’ve loved and cared for animals just about my whole life. I’ve taken care of cats & dogs from the puppy/kitten stage all the way to senior. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets as well and id love to meet and care for yours too :) I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter. I’ve been trying to do Rover full-time this year. It’s been great, but life is changing and I will mostly be doing just house sitting from now on. But you can always ask me if your dog needs to be walked or cats checked on, cause there’s a chance I could make it work. I’m mostly available in the afternoon & evenings. Right now I am looking for another job but I love being around animals so I still want to do jobs for rover when I can :) I currently have a cat at home. And I take care of my family’s dogs whenever they need it. I also volunteer with animals. . I try to spend as much time with animals as I can.
“Rachel was very accommodating when my flights were delayed and then cancelled. My dog enjoys his time with her along with my cat who is slow to warm up to others. It’s nice to have a pet sitter you can trust! Will continue to book.”
“Best pet sitter ever! Benita is amazing with my pack and she took wonderful care of them. Dealt with their quirks;, provided lots of updates with pics and video, administered medications and kept them all happy and loved. Will definitely book again lots! I highly recommend her for any and all pets. She is wonderful! Came home to happy, healthy pets :)”
“Alexa was amazing with our big boy Gino and took great care of the house. She was quick to communicate and was willing to extend her stay when we had a family matter to deal with. Would trust our dogs and house with her again for sure!”
About: Growing up I have had both dogs and cats and was responsible in taking care of both. I carried the skills I learned as I left for college and looked after fellow students and friends pets. Not just watching over their beloved animals, feeding and playing with them, but also teaching them new tricks of the owners were okay with it. Currently and until May I will have classes for 1 hour everyday in the afternoon Mon through Thursdays. Other than that I will be available to pet sit. Currently I do not have a busy schedule so I am able to watch and care for your pets for an extended period of time.
“Sierra took great care of my three dogs (one of which is a 3 month old puppy)! She was communicative and sent updates and photos. Would hire her to watch them again!”
“Nancy did an amazing job watching Milly while we were away. She was quick to respond to our request for a meet and greet. I could tell immediately that she loves animals and put my mind at ease that she would provide the level of care that we desired. Nancy sent us photos and updates while we were away. She followed Milly's daily schedule that I had laid out for her to the letter. She was careful to keep the house very clean and orderly. Milly was a very happy and content little girl when we got home. I am so grateful to have found Nancy and will not hesitate to use her again in the future!!”
“Absolutely loved Ellen! The puppies loved her, she kept us updated on the trip, and she did things around the house to make our return home even better, like making sure the pillows and blankets on the couch were tidy, and putting the sheets in the wash.

Not having to worry about your home and pets while on leave is a very nice feeling!”

Benita She was very timely and a great friend to our dog, Scout. She kept us well informed on the dog's activity. She made a schedule work that included some extra time at the beginning. The house was in good order when we returned. We would hire her again! Rob and Dixie
Alexandra did a great job with our two large dogs who have opposite energies. She was playful and engaging with our snuggly pitbull while being cautious, patient, and understanding of our anxious shepherd. I’m usually hesitant to try new sitters but Alexandra put me at ease with her frequent updates, pictures, and details from her stay at our place (which was left in perfect condition). 100% recommend!
Sarah has always been able to put my very shy girl Diane at ease since she started watching her. Good communication and great pictures which also help me know Diane is being well taken care of. When Diane wasn't feeling well, Sarah got her to take medication which is no easy feat. Sarah is a wonder with my dog and I highly recommend her. She will be truly missed when she moves away.
Terra did a great job of taking care of our pets! She stayed in excellent communication with us while we were away, sending updates and photos. Her conscientiousness allowed us to relax and feel at ease while traveling and it was clear that our home and pets were cared for well! We would highly recommend Terra!
Chris is amazing! This is the third time we have used him and we couldn’t be happier. It’s clear our dogs are happy and cared for while we are away and Chris is communicative and reliable. He always leaves the house very clean and we are thankful to come back to safe and happy dogs! In addition, we have had two circumstances where we needed care for an extra day and Chris was happy to accommodate. We are so thankful to have him care for our pups and highly recommend him to others!
Sinead was great with Vincent and sent photos/check-ins almost everyday. This was my first time using Rover and I booked daily check-ins instead of housesitting (what I wanted) so I can’t blame her for not being here as much as I expected but can’t blame her either. I would definitely use her again, just with the clarification up front of what exactly we expect. Overall, Vincent was happy and well taken care of!
