“We had a fantastic experience with Dustin! He walked the dogs regularly, gave them lots of attention, and made lots of photographs. He also took great care of the house, and left everything neat and clean. He’s personable, kind, and completely professional. A genuinely good guy that we felt totally comfortable with. Highly recommended!”

“I’ve never felt so comfortable and anxiety free leaving my beloved animals while on a trip. So grateful for her wonderful care, clear and detailed communication, and the ease all around.”

“Kerstin stayed at my house to babysit my dog over this past weekend. She was super easy to communicate with and sent tons of pics. We appreciated her help so much!”

“We had an amazing experience with Keishla and can’t recommend her enough. She went above and beyond caring for our cat and our home, and her thoughtful updates and photos gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a house in perfect shape. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy to watch your pet, book with Keishla without hesitation. We are already planning on having her back again!”


“Emily was great. She was very communicative of everything that was going on with Taji while I was away. She also kept the house in great shape. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Claudia has been dependable and flexible for daily drop-ins and walks with my precious furbaby. My pup took to her from day 1! She has a great ability to make her anxiety melt away enough to get much needed rest yet excited enough to run. Claudia is super attentive and provides excellent communication. You are so appreciated Claudia!”

“Abreena was so incredible to my dog Blair and gave me such peace of mind while I was out of town. I had a dog sitter cancel last minute and Abreena was able to make it work within 24 hours to stay through the weekend. She sent regular updates of her and Blair on walks, having treats, etc. Blair can be shy but took to Abreena so easily. I’ve never had such a communicative sitter and cannot recommend her more!”
“We had a great experience working with Jazmin! She stayed in our home for two nights, treated our house with great respect and left everything clean and tidy. Most importantly, she truly loved our pups. She sent us frequent photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind and she even surprised the pups with pup cups as a special treat 🐶❤️ We could tell our dogs were happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her!”

About: I have been dog sitting and taking care of pets since I was 15. I love being with dogs of all ages and breeds. I have a soft spot for anxious or nervous dogs as I also have a nervous dog at home myself! I will be sure to send you photos and updates every day about your pet and will treat them like they are my own pup. They will be well taken care of and receive lots of love when they are with me. I am currently working full-time, but I am available to come by on my lunch break for a potty break or walk, and can come take care of your pet before 8am and after 5pm. If you prefer to keep your dog crated, I make sure they are not being destructive to your home while I am gone. I also make sure to give them plenty of mental stimulation, and I will clearly communicate all matters to you.

“Heidi did a fabulous job house sitting our anxious dog, Polly. We were very happy to see that Heidi got Polly to go on walks, which she normally refuses with new sitters, in the daily updates. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and the house was just as we’d left it. We would highly recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”

“Aicha was fantastic! She stayed over at my house with our baby for 4 days and was so responsive, respectful, and loving to our kitty! The house was in good shape when we returned and she sent us consistent images throughout the stay to show off how much fun she and the kitty were having. We would rebook (and did!) at any time. Thanks Aicha!”

“I’ve used rover many times before, Maria not only left me reassured on our pet meet up before the booking but also during booking. She listened to all of my elder dogs needs, my baby is 14 years of age and leaving her for a week was definitely nerve wracking since here eyes are already grey. She would send me updates on my pets, my dog doesn’t get along with many people or pets but she allowed Maria to get near her and even napped together. She truly is Angel and HIGHLY recommend!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life and I currently have two large (70+ lb) dogs. I grew up with small to medium dogs and before my current pups, I dog/cat sat all manner of dogs and cats from friends and family. I am very detail oriented and attentive when providing care for pets and have a calming presence that pets quickly grow fond of. I have experience with crate training, leash training and giving oral and topical medication. I have created extensive care documents for my own dogs and am happy to follow as many instructions for your pets' care. I'm currently unemployed so I have immense flexibility throughout the weekdays and weekends. I have availability to check in on, walk and house sit your pets. I'm happy to visit your pets and help with feeding, walking or any other specific care you need while you're away. I really enjoy playing with dogs as well and especially if they like fetch! I love to throw and unfortunately my dogs don't have a taste for that so I'm happy to keep your dog exercised. I also like to go on really long walks and sometimes run with dogs if your dog needs more exercise. Otherwise, I'm happy to cozy up with your pet and I can even stay overnight if needed.
About: I love DOGS! I have grown up around dogs of all shapes and sizes! Much like some of our dogs, I also get a little mischievous when I get left home alone too long, so let my extra energy benefit you! I am happy to run your dog until they are completely tuckered out, or take a little jaunt around the block to keep our senior pets moving and grooving! Whatever you and your pets may need, I am happy to accommodate! Currently working part-time and studying to become a yoga instructor! I have a very open schedule and can be very flexible to suit your family's needs! Animal safety is always a top priority. Happy to send photos or videos of your pet during our visit so that you can relax knowing your pet and I have having a great time together!
“Julia recently cared for our 16 year old cat, Leaux, over night/s in our home. She did a fantastic job with him, following his frequent meal plan and giving him lots of cuddles. She also took extra care to calm him during the night when he cried out (several times) as he has a little older kitty dementia. She also took extra good care of our home. She sent me pictures and kept excellent communication along the way. It’s been a day since I’ve gotten home and he still keeps going into the guest room to see if she’s still there. He misses her. Don’t hesitate to book Julia for your pet.”

“As always, Bari took great care of our dog, Merlin, and our house while we were away for the weekend. It's fantastic to be able to go on vacation with the peace of mind that our little guy is being well taken care of. We appreciate it so much!”

“Jodie was so attentive with our pets and made sure they were happy and well taken care of while we were away. Her daily feedback also really made us at ease while traveling. She also left the house pristine at the end of the sit - which shows how above and beyond she goes! Highly recommend her!!”

Been working with Alice for about 2 months now. She’s been a huge help! She has been doing weekly drop in visits with my pup, in preparation for a trip I had planned, I wanted him to be comfortable with her when the time came. I just returned from my trip and she sent my photos everyday and checked in/ gave updates. She left the house clean and tidy. My dog and I appreciate her so much and I am so thankful I found someone to help out so I can enjoy vacations 🙂 thank you so so much Alice!!!

This was Haile's first overnight stay with Bob and we are so happy we found her. She sends regular pictures and updates and lets us know when she arrives and leaves. Bob is obviously very happy to snuggle with her on the couch, and she's familiar with his medicines, including giving him an inhaler. We are looking forward to future stays with Haile!

I appreciated that Tammi agreed to a Meet and Greet with my dogs before she stayed with them. She was very accommodating to their needs and let my dog take his time to warm up to her, as he can be shy. I felt like she was a good communicator with asking any questions about the house and caring for my boys. She left my home neat and tidy. I will definitely request her services again.
