“Emily did drop in visits for us this past week and was AMAZING!!! She sent us pictures and daily updates, plus cleaned up messed out cats made. We are so thankful for her and would highly recommend!!”


“She was so patient with our dog and trying to get her to open up. She handled everything with care. She took care of our fur babies for a couple days and I loved seeing that our babies were happy around her!”


“Katherine did a wonderful job caring for my dog, Sherlock. From the start, she was warm, reliable, and clearly experienced. She made sure Sherlock had plenty of playtime, gave him lots of love and attention, and was always gentle and kind. She also took great care in making sure he was safe, comfortable, and well-fed throughout the check-in. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”


“Grace was amazing with my kitties. She provided them everything they needed. Even though my baby boy didn't come out to say hi until the last day, Grace was patient and provided him comfort from a far. Raja definitely enjoyed playing (staring in other words) too.”


“Evgeniia was timely, followed directions, and spent time to make our kitties feel loved during our time away. She sent daily updates and pictures which gave us confidence while away. Would 10/10 recommend her to anyone and will want her to watch our babies in the future.”


“Julissa did a great work, she followed all feeding schedule precisely and was very flexible regarding visit times. She has a loving heart for animals. Definitely hire Julissa for any of your pet care needs.”

“Bria was the absolute best! It was our first time using Rover.com and we couldn't have been happier. Our sweet old guy loved staying home. Our entire family looked forward to our daily messages and photos. Thank you Bria for your kindness, excellent communication, and your loving care for our fur baby.”


“Kellie was a great help when we were in town for the PGA Championship. She came by to meet the pups and get a lay of the land the evening before we needed her. She also was fabulous when one of our nervous pups had an accident in the house. We truly appreciated her communication and reliability. Highly recommend!”


About: I grew up training hunting dogs with my dad on the property. As I got older I was in charge of training any new family dogs we got. I am 100% guilty of stopping a conversation in its tracks because I see a dog in public and I have to go say hi to it. I have a 1 year old English cream named Cavill who is amazing with other dogs and is the most well behaved dog I have ever owned. Friday to Monday works best for boarding times but I can easily do drop ins and walks mid day because of my job. Most weekends I am at the house all day working on fixing things up or planning my wedding for 2026. I have a fenced in 1/4 acre back yard that Cavill loves to run around and play fetch in. I also have a doggy splash pool and wash area on the back deck for when things get muddy. No pets on furniture but there are multiple areas for dog beds and very comfy carpet upstairs.

About: Began working in animal hospitals when I was 12… love caring for fur-babies! I hold a doctorate in a public health field & a degree in animal sciences/pre-veterinary medicine (was accepted into multiple veterinary schools). I recently moved, & saw an opportunity to return to caring for animals. I provide what I looked for when I used sitters for my pets: reliability, responsiveness, & and animal lover. Happy to play with active pets, patient with those who need to warm up, & love cuddling the couch loungers. I have experience with animals from birth to senior years & various health conditions. I follow your directions as you know your pet(s) best. From cuddles and walks to surgery and inpatient care - I have experience. In addition to working in pet hospitals, I have had my own pets, from small to very large (other animals in photos… Rover is only for dog/cat/housesitting & I have to abide by TOS). I look forward to bonding with your fur-family members so you can relax with the assurance your pets are in good hands. Hablo español (Costarricense) I am currently 100% dedicated to caring for your fur-babies. My daughter lives on her own (in college), so there are no children or pets in my home. This is my daily & weekly routine :) I follow your instructions for your pet(s). I am adaptable. There is a mini dog-park here & lots of green space for walks! I’m happy to provide a more comfortable experience for your pets while you’re away than traditional boarding via housesitting, boarding, & drop-ins. I recently moved to the area so am in an apartment (and why boarding large dogs is a case-by-case basis), but also am a homeowner, so understand entrusting your home to a house-sitter. Safety & a good experience for your pet(s) is my priority.

“Jennifer was a lifesaver when we needed last minute help with Murph. She was flexible, responsive, and really gave Murph the extra attention she needed while we were away. We will certainly book with Jennifer next time we need help with Murph. Highly recommend Jennifer!”

Liam H.
“Liam has done an exceptional job training our dog, Cavill from the time he was an 11-week old puppy. He potty trained Cavill in less than 1 month and we only crate-trained him for 6 months. He took the lead of our dog’s training and him all of his commands and got him into a highly structured potty, eating and walking schedule, which has made him into a very obedient, loving and kind-tempered dog. He is great with all animals and has years of experience working on a farm with dogs from the time he was a child. Your pets would be in great hands with Liam!”


Stephanie B.
“Stephanie is exactly the type of person you would want to trust your pet with! She has not only grown up around dogs her entire life, comfortable with cats, but also rides, jumps, and grooms horses! Stephanie understands that different breeds have different dispositions and knows that pet families raise their pets to suit their lifestyle. I would not hesitate to recommend Stephanie to walk, sit and stay with your pets!”


Jennifer L.

“Jennifer was a lifesaver when we needed last minute help with Murph. She was flexible, responsive, and really gave Murph the extra attention she needed while we were away. We will certainly book with Jennifer next time we need help with Murph. Highly recommend Jennifer!”

Lilia and Jeff were absolutely amazing! Our dogs are usually very shy and unsocialized, but with them, they felt right at home from the start. They went above and beyond to make our pups feel comfortable and loved, and it was such a relief knowing they were in such caring hands. Communication was great, and we got regular updates and lots of pictures that gave us total peace of mind. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Lilia and Jeff for anyone looking for truly exceptional pet sitters!

This is my second time using Zora’s service, and I’m very happy with it. In this occasion, she was also very proactive—when she couldn’t reach me to open the garage, she even tried to see if the back door was open. Once she was finally able to get in touch with me, she went back to the house again to make sure everything was taken care of. Communication was great at all times—she always responded quickly and kept me updated with photos of my dog. She was responsible and punctual, always arriving within the time range we had agreed on. She did a great job taking care of my dog, and I would definitely hire her again.

Dominique has cared for our pets twice now, and each time she’s gone above and beyond. She genuinely loves animals, and it shows in every interaction. Her thoughtful daily updates and fantastic pictures give us so much peace of mind when we’re away. We couldn’t ask for a more caring and reliable pet sitter—highly recommend!

Sydney was great with our cats! She sent pictures every day and stayed in frequent communication. When we thought we had a problem with our dog-sitter and that we might have to have him brought home while we were still out of town, Sydney offered to watch him as well. It worked out, and he stayed where he was, but it was such a relief knowing we could count on Sydney to take care of him, if needed. Highly recommend!

Miles was amazing! He was very reliable and he took extra great care of our pets, especially our dog who has to take multiple medications throughout the day. He had great communication, he was very flexible and pleasant to work with. We loved his daily updates! It was great having someone we could trust watching our pets!
