“She was very good with communicating to me how my dog was doing with daily activities and pictures. House was clean and tidy. Good care for my dog. Recommend using her!”
“Sarah was amazing! She was able to sit very last minute and made us feel incredibly comfortable leaving our dog with her. She kept us updated with pictures, videos and check-ins. She treated our apartment with respect and even left us a note and pictures of our pup when we returned. We knew Harley got the attention and love she needed while we were away!”
“Joy took fantastic care of our two german shepherds and house, and gave us great updates throughout our trip. It was wonderful not having to worry about our pups while out of town, knowing they were being well taken care of!”
“Andra was professional, courteous, and loving with my pets. She communicated clearly and effectively and managed a health concern with one of my dogs calmly and with care. She went above and beyond consistently. I would strongly recommend her services and would hire her again in the future without hesitation.”
“I am so very happy to have found Sarah! I am always worried about my dogs when I go out of town...will the pet sitter let them out as often as their accustomed to? Will my house be a wreck when I return? For the first time in a long time, I took a trip and felt at ease. Sarah was absolutely fantastic! She took such great care of my senior girl and entertained the younger pups. Never have I returned home from a trip and had my house as clean (if not cleaner) than when I left. I am so grateful to Sarah and will most certainly be using her services again!”
“Royalty was a great pet sitter he sent pics and videos from the time I left for vacation till the time I got home I was very pleased with his services and will definitely use him next time I go out of town!!!”
“I was happy with Meg as she kept my 6 year old dog for several days. I received lots of cute photos of her doing all her favorite things. My house was in great shape when I returned and pup seemed very content.”
“Mia was the absolute BEST with our puppy! She was so attentive and loving! She sent daily photos and videos and even did some training with our puppy. She also took great care of our home and left it spotless! I cannot give her enough praise!!!”
“Hannah did a great job with our senior dogs. My wife and I were away for 5 nights and received great communications and cute photos. One of the nights was the Fourth of July so Hannah had to give extra TLC during inevitable fireworks. She left the house in great shape, too. We could barely tell anyone had even been here! Would hire again for sure!”
“Activity we were completely comfortable with Jillian’s care for Sophie and Our Home. Daily updates and pictures were much appreciated. Highly recommend her for your Pet Sitting needs. She is the first on our list. Next time we travel.”
“Lucinda was the BEST dogsitter we've ever had--if I could give her more than 5 stars, I definitely would! My husband and I were called away last minute on a business trip and she made us feel as if our pups were in really good hands, easing our minds about their care which gave us one less thing to worry about. They are rescues and a bit quirky but she tended to their special needs and even offered to check on them when we thought our flight might be cancelled. They loved her so much! Cannot recommend more highly--will definitely use again.”
“Karissa was awesome! This was our first time using an a house sitter instead of drop in visits. We were nervous but she was great! It was so much better than having to board our dogs. She took great care of them and definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 13 years old. I was the first person family world call when a pet needed to be taken care off. Because of my educational background on animal biology, I am familiar with the nutritional needs of dogs and cats, what exercises they need to keep on being healthy, and how to make them generally happy. I treat pets like family and love them dearly. I can work most evenings because I work part-time during the day. Additionally, I am available for last minute pet care. I am available all day on Saturday and Sundays. At home, I make sure my two cats have fresh food and water everyday. Additionally, I clean their litter once a day, and change it once a week. Play time takes about 20 minutes throughout the day, depending on the cat’s mood, of course. I love to take dogs on a walk and have play dates with them. I can also clean after themselves.
“Saraelizabeth was so amazing! She was able to help us out short notice, our dog Indy LOVED her! Super responsive and gave us great updates. She left our place incredibly clean and tidy, way more she needed to! Would definitely have her dog sit for us again.”
“Meredith was phenomenal! She called ahead of time and got every detail in advance and she was super sweet to my pup! She will take great care of your pet and will be sure to get everything just right so your pet is as comfortable as possible! Highly highly recommend having her as your Rover!”

This girl is a rockstar! We booked in home sitting with Jaiydah for over a week, and she took such great care of our two dogs. I received multiple updates each day while we were away. She played with them and loved on them and I am sure our dogs were disappointed when we walked through the door instead of Jaiydah. 100% will book again. The absolute best person for the job 🥰
Margaret was amazing with our two bernadoddles. She was communicative and sent tons of pictures . She made sure to get walks in early during a summer heatwave and took amazing care of the pups. Additionally, she stayed at the house and everything was left in clean condition when we came back. We will be using Margaret again!
Kiley was great! She took great care of my puppy and kept me updated! We met ahead of time, discussed my puppy’s schedule and continued to discuss as things changed. She was flexible and let me know when things had to change from both ends. Each time she checked on my puppy she gave me an update on what they did and sent pictures
Hannah did a great job with our senior dogs. My wife and I were away for 5 nights and received great communications and cute photos. One of the nights was the Fourth of July so Hannah had to give extra TLC during inevitable fireworks. She left the house in great shape, too. We could barely tell anyone had even been here! Would hire again for sure!
Daniel is incredible! He sent photos, videos and texts about their day together throughout. The dogs were obviously pretty exuberant! He was great with walks and a LOT of playtime. We came home from vacation to be greeted by two very contented doggies and if you have to return from vacation, that’s exactly how you want it
Mia is very sweet and caring. She house sat with my two dogs for a week. She managed my elderly dog's potty accidents. She check in daily with photos. She was professional and also flexible. This was my first Rover experience and Mia was helpful in navigating the process. I certainly would book her again!
Andra was professional, courteous, and loving with my pets. She communicated clearly and effectively and managed a health concern with one of my dogs calmly and with care. She went above and beyond consistently. I would strongly recommend her services and would hire her again in the future without hesitation.
Hannah was GREAT. I can't imagine anyone on Rover being better, honestly. She gave us so much peace while we traveled, knowing our babies were well taken care of. Her regular updates and photos were exactly what we needed while we were away! We hope we can use her again next time we need someone to stay with our dog and cat.
