“Stephanie took wonderful care of our two young cats in our home. They have a ton of energy and require a lot of playtime, and Stephanie clearly gave them a lot of attention and care. Additionally, one of our cats has pica, and Stephanie was very conscientious about that and was able to get her to take her liquid medication each morning (not an easy task). She provided detailed updates and lots of pics, and we felt very at ease knowing our kitties were safe in her care. We highly recommend Stephanie to everyone and we would love to work with her again!”


“Anthony took wonderful care of our pup and house, was thoughtful & considerate, sent lots of great photos, and spoiled all of us with his kindness. He was attentive, responsive, and clearly bonded with our little buddy. We sure hope he’s available the next time we go out of town - so does the pup! Absolutely lovely human being and dog caretaker.”


“Mindy and Daniel were so wonderful and took great care of our pup. They sent regular updates, followed our care instructions and took care of our home. We will gladly work with them again!”


“Our first time using this App and we were pretty nervous! Pamela was absolutely amazing! She communicated so well and sent us all the pictures for updates ☺️ Two of our babies are rescues from Korea and can be very shy! In the short time they warmed up to her which is saying A LOT! We are so appreciative of her and definitely plan on using her in the future!”



“This was our 2nd time having Heather sit with our dog. I think if you get repeat customers - it says it all! Heather was fantastic. Lots of communication and pictures. I could tell when I got home that my dog had been well taken care of!”


“Megan did a great job watching our pups. She sent frequent updates and many pictures to let us know they were being well care for. Thanks Megan!”


“Chelsea took wonderful care of our old man, making sure he was comfortable on his (very slow) walks, providing him with mental stimulation in the evenings, and checking in with medication questions. We came home to a clean house and a completely calm pup. Thank you, Chelsea!”


“Having Jaclyn stay at our house and take care of Chloe was a dream come true. She is super responsible, helpful and caring, and both the house and Chloe were in perfect condition upon our return.”


“Alice was so kind, and as soon as I met her I could tell she has a great heart and a caring spirit! She made the process of setting up a meet and greet totally smooth, and had me feeling confident and comfortable being away from my senior kitty. She followed instructions perfectly and handled things great, even though I had no cell service during the sitting so she had no way to ask questions if they came up. Her positivity and attentiveness were very appreciated--I wasn't worried about not having cell service at all! When I got home everything was as clean and orderly as I left it, and my cat was cozied up and content. I'm a bit of a neat freak so I particularly appreciate Alice leaving things so tidy!”


“Holly was great! She saved our bacon following a late-notice cancellation for dog sitting. She connected with us within a week of our trip, met our dog, and put our family at ease with her compassion, warmth, and professionalism. During our trip, Holly checked in regularly with pictures and we had a wonderful time knowing she was in our home taking care of our pup.”


“Katherine was amazing, our dog and cat loved her! She spent lots of time with them even outside on the deck. She left the house nice and clean, was communicative and sent pictures of our fur babies while we were away. Highly recommended!”


“Brigit was awesome. She responded immediately to a last minute request for help. She was an excellent caretaker for our home and our Bella. I was very impressed with the way she focused on connecting with Bella when they first met. She took the time to get to know Bella and to understand how to care for Bella. She asked relevant questions and was focused on paying attention to details. We will definitely use Brigit again.”


“Madison took great care of our two labs, I would definitely trust her with my pups again! She sent lots of photos and updates which made us super happy.”


“Lindsay was a great help for us on a short trip. Our dog is low maintenance so we agreed to have her just make a few daily visits which she followed through on. She gave us a few updates and kept us in the know when something off happened. Great value!”


“Jeff is great! Very easy going in all things, except when it comes to the well being of your pet. His attention to detail there is above and beyond! Took care of my pup like a member of the family, would trust him any day to provide the best for her. Will absolutely book again.”


“This was our first time booking house sitting/dog care (with our Dog Wally who is relatively anxious with new experiences and people) and we are so thankful we had Dylan as our Rover! From the first time meeting through the final night, Dylan made it a stress free experience. He was kind, caring and very thorough with his responses. He consistently gave us timely updates every day with both pictures and details of their daily activities. We even came back to a clean home with all of the linens washed! Overall, we cannot recommend Dylan enough to those looking for Rover services and hope to book again with him in the future.”


“Greg communicated well in all aspects for this first pet sitting experience for us. He interacted well with our cat and dog and we felt like we had responsible, attentive care while he was caring for the animals and the house on this two night stay. We will certainly hope to have Greg sit for us again!”


“Brian did an awesome job on his week long stay with our 10 year old hound dog Leeroy. We really appreciated his attention to detail and regular check ins with us. Right before we left town Leeroy got a few hot spots and Brian went above and beyond keeping them clean and making sure Leeroy didn’t scratch at them. Brian stayed at our house and left it exactly as it was before we left town and even helped water our plants during the heatwave. This was Brian’s first stay with Leeroy and it went great - we will definitely reach out to him again! Thanks Brian!”


About: I’ve been around dogs and have pet watched for a couple of my friends as well as family. I recently just rescued two older dogs with a bit of behavioral issues and have been navigating working with them for the past year. I really enjoy spending time with pets and I’m happy to take things at their pace! I’m usually available most Thursday's and Fridays, I am completely free on Sunday's. Also I would be available after 3 on Saturdays. The times that would work best for me would be 10am-8pm on sundays and 3:30-8pm on Saturdays. I personally live in an apartment but I do live with smaller dogs so I usually take them in my apartments yard. As for my clients home, I would ask if there’s any specific requirements for the pet I am caring for and follow them to the best of my ability! I really take communication as a necessity to give the pet the best care possible, so prepare for lots of questions!

“Both my dog and cat were happy and healthy when I arrived home. Emelia was very flexible to my situation despite my house not being unpacked from a new move and a short notice on pet sitting dates.”

Samara F.
“She watched my dog a couple of months ago, as I was out of town for a cruise. I left her instructions on the times my dog (coco) needed to eat and the times to walk her for the week I was gone. I'm happy to say my coco was given much care. Not only did she do great following the instructions I left her, she also gave my dog a bath after she went through a very muddy puddle and even gave her a little bone after. I was so pleased to see how happy coco was!!”
