“Maciyah was super accommodating and helpful when I had to book her last minute. And Duke seemed to really enjoy his stay. She sent tons of pictures and got him lots of walks. I highly recommend boarding with Maciyah.”


“Our experience with Sarah was excellent! I was nervous about leaving my dogs with someone new and she made it so easy. She was very responsive, sent regular updates and photos, and was super flexible about timing. I came home to relaxed, happy dogs that had clearly been taken great care of!”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care our three boxers received! It was clear Hannah had a genuine love for dogs and plenty of experience handling larger breeds. Our pups can be a handful, but she managed them with patience, confidence, and lots of affection. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how much fun they were having. It was obvious our dogs felt safe, happy, and loved the entire time we were away. Coming home to three relaxed and well-cared-for dogs was the best feeling. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!”


“Lauren did a great job staying with our dog who is older and has special needs, including medication. She left our house in excellent condition and was communicative throughout the stay. Highly recommend.”


“Erin was GREAT! We were nervous to use Rover for the first time but Erin eased all worries with an intro visit beforehand and then took great care of our kitties. She was clean, thorough, and trustworthy!! We will definitely book again.”


“Mark is a great Dog Sitter and Dog Walker! Gabriel is a big Rottweiler and it can be difficult for him to warm up to new people. Mark is a professional and was able to get Gabriel to warm up to him right away! Thanks Mark!”


“Kayla is wonderful! She took such great care of my dog for a housesitting visit and left my place as i left it, clean and cared for. Thank you Kayla!!”


About: I take pride in my work as a pet sitter. I have experience and knowledge from taking care of past family members' pets. I am someone you can count on to do the job. I currently work full-time at a credit union (M-F). I get home at around 5:45pm/6pm. I am all focused on taking care of your pet (dog walking, drop in visit, or overnight); your cat or dog is my #1 priority. Thank you for trusting me with your family. Although I don't have any pets myself right now, I do have past experience taking care of pets (per my reviews). I take pride and much joy in taking care of both dogs and cats.

“Laurie was so helpful even with a last minute request. She went above and beyond to make my dogs comfortable including my dog with anxiety who was in a new place. Extremely grateful!”


“Lily was great. Easy to communicate with and the dogs seemed to love her.”


About: A lot of my friends and family have had dogs while I was growing up so I have experience with dog sitting and being around them in general. I love staying fit, I love dogs and I love being outside, so this seemed like the perfect side gig for me. I work at a middle school so I’m just looking for something part-time after school hours (8AM- 3:15 PM). I plan on doing this any day I can Monday through Friday. I do have a fenced in yard in case I needed to dog sit at my place but I just plan on walking dogs for now.


“Mary Kay was great to my dogs. I was super appreciative of the open communication and photo updates she had with me during my trip away. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time using a dog sitter and the experience I had was fantastic!”


“Sarah was truly a life saver for us and our new puppy! My husband and I had to leave our barely 3 month year old Golden Retriever for 9 days and we were SO nervous but, Sarah went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. She stayed at our house basically 24 hours a day and kept his schedule and routine completely normal. She sent lots of updates and pictures which really helped make me feel he was safe and well taken care of. Her and Goose became good buddies and I can't wait to use her services again!”


About: Growing up in the country I've always had small and large dogs. I started raising dogs from puppies before I was 10 years old and as a teenager I was able to get some unique experience from taking care of our more senior dogs who had mobility issues and required daily medication. As an adult, I have my big Tarot dog! He is a blue heeler mix with a ton of energy and it's always fun to play with him! I'm currently in graduate school and have meetings in the middle of the day on Monday and Thursday, but other than that I am usually at home with my own cats and dog and have the availability to take care of yours too! I often play with my cats with their string toys and fuzzy pom poms. Shadow (my black and white kitty) has even learned to play fetch with them! For Tarot, he likes to play with the hose in our fenced-in back yard. But his favorite is when we take him for walks in the park near our home! If I were taking care of your pets, I would be just as playful with them and for your dogs, I'd try to mix up the walks they go on so they always get the most enrichment out of their walks :)

About: Please help me convince my wife that we need a furry friend! I never had a pet growing up, so I always offered to take care of my friends pets. I work from home Monday’s and Friday’s, Tuesday through Thursday I go into an office and I don’t work on the weekends. So before 8:30am or 5pm during the week or anytime on the weekends I am available! I am a new home owner with a fenced in backyard. I treat my clients homes with respect and clean up after my self. With clients’ pets, I am attentive to instructions and specific needs that each pet may have.

“First time Rover users and I think it’ll be our last. We unfortunately found our new PERFECT babysitter in Kate. We could not have asked for someone more perfect to stay with our babies. It was so seamless I barely checked on them! Will 100% be checking Kate’s availability anytime we plan on leaving for more than a day. 5 stars is not enough, 2 paws up all around <3”


About: I have worked with animals and have used pet care facilities before and know it is hard to find trusted dependable care. Understand life/work happens and there is always need for pet care to support them with. I am available Monday through Friday days. Evenings for Monday through Thursday. Weekends for sitting overnight. Able to come over to check on animals or feeding time. I have trained two puppies from 4weeks and on that were part of my household. I have a dog that was found in Eastern Market area and have worked with resource guarding.

“Emily was an extraordinary dog sitter! She went over and above to provide a comfortable and relaxing time for our two old dogs. We were constantly updated with cute pictures of them playing and came home to a squeaky clean house! We cannot say enough positive things about our experience.”


“Danielle is phenomenal! She took such good care of our pups and they loved her right back. We were out of town for a few days and we were getting constant updates and pictures. We were so relieved that we didn't have to worry about them when we were gone, knowing they were in good hands. Our dogs can't wait to see Danielle again!”


About: I have taken care of elderly and young pets. I am very vigilant and familiar with body language and different needs. Looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I am currently unemployed, but I take care of my roomates Shih-Tzu on a daily basis. I am well versed in taking care of pets and have always been around them from a young age. I will make sure all food and water is provided, special dietary needs are met. I will make sure your pet is safe and will take them for a walk or play with them as needed. I hope to make this a wonderful experience for everyone!
