“Rosemary was fabulous as a sitter for our pup!! She did all the dog stuff and even helped with package delivery and plant watering!! Very sweet person and cared for the house superbly too.”
“Alexandria was a phenomenal pet sitter! We felt completely at ease and were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing our animals were in such good hands. She cared for them as if they were her own—attentive, playful, and always keeping our dog company. It’s clear our pets love her and feel comfortable around her. We’ll absolutely hire her again for any future travel!”
“This was my first time using Rover and what a blessing Cynthia was! I have a rescue dog and she is newer to us and Cynthia not only was great about communicating but also gave great feedback on what we can continue to do with her as a rescue dog to help her adapt. In addition she also took some super cute photos and our dog seem to thrive! We couldn't be happier and hope to use her again.”
About: My family have always been dog people so I've grown up walking, feeding, and taking care of dogs my entire life. I regularly dog (and cat) sit for friends from college and church. I'm currently working part-time so my schedule is very flexible excluding Monday & Thursday evenings and Saturday afternoons. Down for morning/midday/evening walks and feeding or overnight stays. I cannot currently board/crate other dogs due to my 2 bundles of fur, Angus and Max, but am able to offer walking, feeding, and overnights.
“Alex did a wonderful job in working with Ron, our rescue that we took home 6 months ago. Ron is 7 with a few idiosyncrasies from his previous life but we love him and Alex bonded with him quickly and successfully.”
“Kate is the only person I use to take care of my 3 dogs. I think I’ve used her about 6 times now, all for multiple days. They all have different personalities and one is scared of people but loves Kate. She’s responsible, communicates well, and always leaves my house better than when I left!”
“Tarah is great! Here I am again….not wanting to say anything good becuse I just want her for myself! You better always make Sierra and Ryleigh your #1 and #2! LOL. You could instantly feel Tarah was a great person! Communication, Trust, Lovable towards our toddlers(LOL) was the best! Thank you!! Being able to leave to New York and know that everything was ok and would stay that way was truly so nice.”
“I recently hired Jeremy to help me with my Doberman and he did a fantastic job! He was super communicative and my girl thoroughly enjoyed her time with him. Highly recommend him!!”
About: I grew up with a male Labrador dog and 2 cats. Work part time, so my availability is very flexible. Would love to play and care for your furry friends! I work part time and have very flexible availability and scheduling. I work mostly weekends at my current job so Monday- Friday is fully open. I can and will be available for weekends as well. Cannot bring any animals to my apartment, as I have a cat and not enough room for multiple nor bigger animals. Happy to go to your place to care for your furry friend(s) and will stay for a while to play and care for. Willing to stay overnight(s)
About: I've taken care of my own and others pets since I was in early grade school. We've had rats, fish, cats, dogs and several other kinds of pets. Currently down to 3 cats, and a dog. I'm semi-retired and have a lot of flexibility as to when I come and care for your pets. Typically I can come morning, afternoon and evening. I have a fenced in yard with space to run. My dog is super friendly with other dogs. We can also crate your furry friend when they're not out playing oh and our couch loves dogs!
“Bennett did a wonderful job watching my two dogs while my family was on vacation. He bonded with both of them and helped them be comfortable while we were gone. I will definitely ask Bennett to watch my dogs again.”
“Mallory was fantastic. Excellent communication and she handled Alfie like a champ. She also took great care of the house too! She really allowed our family to get away and enjoy time with extended family. Would definitely recommend her services and will certainly hire her again.”
“10/10 highly recommend! We used Amber for the first time to care for our three animals (Dog, Cat, & Parrot) while heading to Italy for two weeks. Obviously we were nervous about having a new pet sitter for this long but wow was Amber incredible. From the moment I inquired she was extremely communicative and personable. I could instantly tell she had a love for animals & she was accommodating to a meet and greet prior to booking. Our animals instantly vibed with her which was a great sign for us! Throughout our trip she sent a bunch of photos and shared quirky stories about them which was so fun. She was a very responsible and thoughtful house guest as well. Seriously we came back and everything was in mint condition. She even brought in our mail and packages! Honestly she was wonderful, we feel so lucky to have found her and will continue using her for all of our travel and pet care needs. I highly recommend booking her! 🤍”
“Abby was amazing! She provided so many updates and pictures. She is by far the best pet sitter I have had. Would definitely recommend her to anyone that wants someone who cares for your animals like they are her own!”
“Tyler is absolutely amazing !!!! She has great communication skills, very nice, and polite. She sends me pix of my princess all the time. She also doesn’t just feed her and take her out. She spends time with her, plays with her and gives her lots of cuddles as my Galaxy loves. As always thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. And Galaxy sends you kisses !!!!”
“First time using Rover to find a reliable person to house sit my pups. I’m so thankful for Ryan and this app! She spent time with me before our trip to learn about my pups and their daily routines. We came home to our surprise that Ryan stayed until we got home and talked to us about the pups adventures:). She stayed in contact with me during our trip and kept us informed about them. She was also easy to get ahold of. She is a warm and kind soul and truly cared for our pups. Will definitely ask her again in the future to watch our pups!”

Tarah was incredibly respectful of our house, and took tremendous care of my two pups, while my wife and I were away for 5 days. She was very responsive, gave daily updates, and gave my dogs the physical and emotional care that they needed. My wife and I came back from our trip with a clean house and two very happy dogs. If you are looking for a Dogsitter, look no further! I look forward to working with Tarah again for future trips!
Shruti was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos, which I really appreciated- it was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their pet!
Thomas watched my dog Ace over this past Thanksgiving, and I couldn’t have been more satisfied with how well taken care of my little guy was. Thomas provided updates including pictures and videos throughout his stay. It’s worth noting that my dog can be shy and isn’t the quickest to warm up to people. Not with Thomas though, Ace was instantly comfortable with him. All in all, Thomas is a wonderful sitter and I most definitely will rebook with him for upcoming trips.
Anna went above and beyond taking care of our dogs while we were on vacation! She asked very thorough questions ahead of our trip, which showed she cared about taking care of our dogs and our home to our satisfaction. She sent lots of pictures while we were away which was comforting, and left our home clean and organized. We were very happy with her service and comfortable having her in our home.
Isabelle did a wonderful job staying with Lily for 6 nights recently. She was sweet, caring and made our time away less stressful. She asked questions if she had any and left our house just as she had found it. We appreciated her caring for Lilly and the photos and text messages. I highly recommend Isabelle and will use her again! Thanks Isabelle for doing such a fabulous job!
Perrin is the best! Kitty and I are so grateful to have found her through Rover and for her excellent care while I was away. Kitty is 15 and very set in her ways but she ate well and had absolutely no complaints upon my return. Perrin went above and beyond in sending me updates and photos and in just taking care of everything. Thank you, Perrin!
Emily kept our pup for 5 days for our first Rover experience. It was full of outdoor adventures & walks and we received lots of photos & videos over the course of the stay, which we loved! She even sent him home with some extra toys. She took great care of Atticus and her communication was great! Any questions or requests she was both understanding and accommodating. Atticus returned to us wore out from all the fun & lived it up. We so appreciated her & the peace of mind while we were gone!
If you are looking for that special person to love and care for your fur babies, Emma is IT! She has been wonderful. I have not worried about my sweet Blondie or my home one minute while I was away working. Rover and Emma will be in my contact list forever. Thank you Thank you Thank you Emma for allowing me to travel worry free!
