“Dawn was amazing! She stayed with the pups while we were on vacation and she made sure we knew they were doing well and sent pictures and updates while we were gone. Would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!”
“Jordan did a great job taking care of my dog, Beckett! She sent plenty of pictures and even knitted a little paw for me while I was gone. I also appreciated that she was tidy and bonus ran my dishwasher and stripped the bed for me on her last day. Would absolutely recommend Jordan!”
About: I have always felt I shared a special connection with animals. I'm apt to remember pets' names rather than their owners'. I have cared for animals most of my life, both my own and others'. I have volunteered at shelters and helped dogs find furever homes through a doggy underground railroad. My first "real" job was cleaning kennels. I have worked in shelters and animal sanctuaries. I groomed show dogs part-time for 15 years. I even worked in the pet waste disposal business before having my only child. I currently care for a rescued Australian Cattle Dog that nobody else would adopt due to her aggression, as well as 7 cats. I am an energetic person who wants to take your dog for long walks. I can give medications and insulin shots when necessary. I have a flexible schedule as i own a small landscaping business with my husband. I am an early bird so morning walks are no problem. I don't care for animals in my home due to having an aggressive dog but having her has taught me to be super-vigilant and careful. I am a safety minded individual who will watch your dog like a hawk.
“Megan was spectacular, stepping in with very short notice to dog sit my puppy for a week when my original sitter canceled a few days before I left. She took very good care of my dog a provided some very cute photos of the fun they were having”
About: Hello! We are a spousal team looking to assist with care of your furry friends! What you will receive from us: -One person available at all times! -Combined pet experience of 30+ years, all ages particularly seniors as well! One of us has worked for veterinary services specializing in boarding care for 8 years through out schooling -We will ensure your home is left in the condition we received with minimal housekeeping (will take trash out and clean up any pet accidents they may have due to medical conditions. Additional requests can be discussed with or without additional pricing) -Our commitment is to ensure your pets safety, emotionally and physically as if they are our own -Regular updates will be provided streamlining communication -We choose Rover over other traditional “2nd jobs”, because we want to enjoy the work we do! Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies! We both have full-time jobs, however, remotely!! This allows one person at all times to care for your pets, during most hours! Our personal break(s) will be scheduled based on both client and provider agreed upon schedules. For example: after evening pet care, there will be a 2-4 hour provider break for dinner and family time before returning for overnight care. Due to the fact we already have pets, all care will be provided at your home. If your dog weighs more than 85 pounds, we required dogs to be leashed trained and/or with a “no pull” dog harness for the safety of your pet and care taker. Meaning, dogs that continually pull excessively while on leash, will either receive short potty breaks, or only “fenced-in” activities. This will be agreed upon at initial encounter. We understand the need to burn off energy! We want to keep everyone safe while we strive to keep the routine as close to yours as much as possible.
“We highly recommend Riley. Our little Calli Has some anxiety issues, but she seemed to relax and accept Riley easily. She was in excellent spirits when we returned home, and was well cared for. Riley’s knowledge of pets and her love of them is obvious.”
“Highly recommend Johanna for your pet sitting needs. She watched my pup in my home for a couple of days and provided excellent care! Communication was prompt and Johanna provided lots of pictures. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Isaiah was great with our rambunctious and needy dog. He spent a great deal of time with him which is what our dogs needs. He kept up posted with texts and pictures, asked questions when he wasn’t sure about something which I appreciated. Very reliable and took care of our mail, garbage and plants while we were gone for a week. I would definitely recommend him!”
“Absolutely wonderful! He was kind, professional, punctual, and my dogs loved him. Would highly recommend him and use his services in the future!”
“Danielle did a great job taking care of our pup. She was on time for meets and clearly communicated her schedule and needs to ensure they met our expectations. She also sent lots of photos and videos of our dog while we were away. Would definitely book her again!”
“David was an excellent choice to stay with our elderly dog while we were away. He was on time for everything. Kimi took to him right away. He gave Kimi 2 medicines per day as well as playing with her to keep her active. He stayed at our home and took care of everything while we were away and we're very pleased. We'll hire David again when we need care for Kimi.”
“Gina did a great job petsitting our cat and dog for an overnight at our house. In addition to scheduling a meet and greet before house-sitting, she kept us updated with her arrival and departure time and shared photo updates with us during the stay. Our place was clean and tidy when we returned, and our pets seemed happy and content!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14, living with them longer. I also currently live on a farm and have good hands when it comes to working with animals! I’m a college student, home for holidays, and sometimes weekends! I have an open schedule most holidays and can come home over a weekend if needed! A safe, leash-controlled environment ensures pets enjoy outdoor activities responsibly, with supervised play, regular walks, and plenty of attention, prioritizing their comfort, health, and safety.
“Nora was amazing!! She took incredible care of our boys, was so patient with our anxious pup and quickly earned his love! We couldn’t be more appreciative!”
About: I have worked with several different types, sizes, and personalities of dogs. I also have experience with older dogs and being sensitive to their needs as they age. Providing a calm and reasurring presence to my canine friends, whether they are excited to see me or feeling a little stressed with their owner gone. I try to give my animal companions the best quality of life possible for them. I really love what I do. I currently work part time so I am able to give lots of time spending with furry friends. Animal care has become part of my daily routine and I couldn't imagine life with out it. In others homes I keep the enviorment low key and peaceful so as not disrupt them. I try to keep them on a regular schedule so they know what to expect and can relax a bit more.
“Tina was wonderful with our puppy. He had never had a pet sitter before, and she took excellent and loving care of him, with lots of play time, exercise, and even some training. He even cried when she left! We will definitely ask her to take care of him again.”

“Chloe watched my dog and three cats while I was away on my family camping trip. From the start she made it clear that she would make sure my pets were cared for by listening intently while I went through their routine, asking questions, and answering all of mine for her. My signal was spotty while camping but Chloe made sure I was updated daily with photos and fun reports of my animals being their silly selves. My dog has several allergies and Chloe had no problem giving him his special food and meds. Definitely book Chloe if you want someone who loves pets as much as you do watching your fur family.”

16. Allison C.
“Allison is the BEST pet sitter ever. I have had many over the years. She loves to sit with my Tessa and just shower love on her. She is also really good at getting my animals to take their medications. I have a geriatric dog who has laser treatments for arthritis and needs to take about 18 pills a day and somehow Allison manages to find all the ones that my dog thinks she has hidden after she "pretends" to take them. I have Allison sleep over at my house when I am away for business as well. One time I was in the hospital for a stay that was supposed to be 3 days that ended up being 12. Allison made sure that my dog was taken care of even though I didn't have it scheduled with her and I know she was busy at the time. We also have a very fussy cat who makes a mess when she feels neglected. She has never once retaliated against us upon our returns from vacations when Allison is on the job. I trust her inherently with my animals. ”
