Alex is everything we had hoped for & would be our first call back for the next trip. He not only took good care of our pet crew, they were all very relaxed and calm upon returning home & the pet action photos he sent us kept us connected. Our neighbors saw him out walking our dog several times, and he was fully committed to keeping Daario (dog) safe and well walked/sprinted. He took great care of our home, and picked up after himself like a pro. Great communication, easy to work with, and most of the pets warmed up to him on day 1 based on the photos.

Jenny is a fantastic sitter! She took excellent care of my dog, Akira. Akira is usually shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but she was immediately comfortable with Jenny. I will definitely be booking her again!

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Amy went above and beyond while caring for our dog and cat, especially when our dog unexpectedly needed surgery during our trip. Amy was calm, reliable, and incredibly attentive—sending thoughtful updates and making sure they had food, toys, and attention. We came home to a spotless house and a sweet surprise: a painting Amy made of our pets! Her kindness and creativity really touched us. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her again in a heart beat.

Fortunately for my cats and I, Justin was available to house sit due to an unexpected cancellation. It was a distressing time for me, but I felt reassured when Jistin arrived at the home and tended to the cats needs right away. I am grateful for Justin's prompt reply to my inquiries and professionalism.

Saana was wonderful with our dog! She sent updates and photos on a daily basis and went above and beyond for every aspect of the sit. Partway through our trip, our boiler broke down, and Saana coordinated with the handyman to have it replaced before we returned and was so kind about not having hot water for a few days. She cleaned the house thoroughly and we came home to a calm, happy dog and a beautifully clean house. We would have her and Nitin back in an instant!

About: I’ve been caring for animals most of my life and truly understand how much pets mean to their families. As a dedicated dog mom to two small dogs, I know firsthand the importance of providing attentive, loving care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every dog as if they’re my own. I have flexibility in my schedule as a remote worker and can provide a schedule that best suits your family and pets. I am free most majority of the holidays. I ensure that the environment is safe and comfortable for your pet. I will make sure that only appropriate toys are available for them and stick to your meal plan and times.

About: Proud dog mom, cat aunt, and all-around animal lover here excited to spend time walking, playing with, and loving your pets. I know how important it is to feel your fur baby is happy and cared for while you’re away, and I’d love to help with that. My partner and I adopted our pup at 8 weeks old about 4 years ago, so I totally get those wild puppy days (and sharp little teeth!). I’ve also watched friends dogs and spent weeks at a time cat sitting for my sister over the years and loving getting to learn their little personalities and form bonds with them. I’d love to get to know your pet and make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while we’re together. I’m just getting started here and would be happy to learn about your pet’s needs and can be flexible with scheduling as needed. I am not currently working and can adjust to your pets schedule as needed. Trust and safety are my top priority wherever I am! My place has a fenced in yard, but my dog can be reactive and is not cat friendly. If you’d like to have your dog stay with me, I’d prefer to do a slow introduction with them before a long stay. When I’m at your place, I will care for it as my own. Before our first walk, I’d love to learn as much about your pet’s needs as possible to ensure I’m providing the best care while you’re away!

About: As a user experience designer, I view pets not just as animals, but as cherished friends and allies. My mission is to provide personalized care that ensures they feel comfortable and secure in their new environment, easing any anxiety they may have. With years of experience caring for pets from my teenage years, I have a wealth of knowledge to support animals of all ages. I take pride in meeting their dietary needs while also fostering emotional connections, creating a nurturing atmosphere where your pet can thrive. I'm skilled in administering medications, grooming, and performing essential tasks like deep-cleaning litter boxes, ensuring a clean and safe haven for your beloved companion. With my unwavering dedication, your cat will receive the highest level of care and attention, with their happiness being my ultimate priority. As I am a free, I have ample free time in my daily and weekly routine. My husband works remotely, so there's always someone at home. This allows us to provide consistent companionship and care for pets throughout the day. Our flexible schedule enables us to engage with your furry friends frequently, ensuring they receive the attention and love they deserve. In my home and my clients' homes, I prioritize safety and trust through a well-structured environment tailored for pets. I ensure that all pet areas are pet-proofed, removing any hazardous items and securing potentially dangerous substances out of reach. When caring for pets, I create a calming atmosphere to help them adjust quickly to their surroundings. I maintain a clean and organized space, ensuring that their living area, food, and litter boxes are always tidy and sanitized. To build trust, I spend quality time getting to know each pet, understanding their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. This personalized approach helps pets feel secure and comfortable while in my care. Additionally, I keep pet owners updated with regular check-ins, sharing photos and videos of their furry friends to ease any worries. Your pet's safety and well-being are my top priorities, ensuring they feel loved and at home, whether in my space or yours.

About: I’ve been pet sitting all animals since I was 12 years old. I work with puppies/kittens and senior dogs. I am a strong walker and feel confident with reactive and strong dogs. I have no official training but I work on basic commands with dogs and can work with whatever routine they need. I love both cats and dogs and have experience with animals that need extra care like medication. I work with about 5 families that I regularly pet and house sit for and I plan on doing walks for other houses during the day. However I am mostly at home with the pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Feel free to reach out with any questions or my experience. I take pride in putting families at peace of mind knowing I am taking such great care of their animals and home. I’m hoping to do more dog walking with Rover but currently am focused on pet sitting. I do have 5 other families I pet sit for off the app. and they do get priority. However, my schedule is very open at the moment. I take pet and house sitting very seriously. I care about the health and safety of animals, and I know how much families appreciate their home being cared for while they are gone. I am a very clean person and always make sure the house is as clean (if not more) as when you leave. There is this amazing feeling of relief to come home after being away, and seeing your happy animals and clean home. I take pride in providing that experience to all my clients. I also send a lot of pictures and videos of the animals to send to clients to assure everyone is happy and well cared for.

About: Hi! We’re Max and Abbey – a caring and reliable pet care duo with over a decade of hands-on dog experience between us. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives, and we treat every pup we care for like family. Max grew up with two energetic and loyal German Shepherds, raising them from puppies through their senior years. That experience taught him everything from obedience training and leash discipline to administering medication and understanding the unique needs of large, active breeds. Abbey was raised with two loving Labrador Retrievers who filled her home with joy (and a little bit of slobber). She became an expert at maintaining routines, managing feeding schedules, and giving plenty of affection and playtime—especially with high-energy pups who never say no to fetch. Together, we bring a balance of structure, patience, and play that dogs thrive on. Whether it’s a relaxed walk, a high-energy play session, or overnight care, we provide a safe, positive environment your pet will love. Why Choose Us: 10+ years combined experience with large breeds Confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments Skilled in leash handling, crate routines, and safe socialization Reliable communication and real-time updates Flexible scheduling and personalized care We know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s hands—and we don’t take that lightly. If you're looking for dependable, experienced, and truly caring sitters, we’d love to meet your furry family member! Between the two of us, your dog will always have company, attention, and care. While we both have full-time schedules, we work in a way that ensures one of us is always home throughout the day. Whether it’s for walks, play breaks, or just a calm presence around the house, your pup will never be left for long stretches without companionship. We’re also home on weekends, so your dog gets even more one-on-one time, longer walks, and relaxed downtime in a cozy, loving environment. We keep a predictable routine that dogs love—meals on time, potty breaks as needed, and plenty of belly rubs in between. You can count on us to make your dog feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. Let us know your dog’s needs, and we’ll make sure they’re part of the family while they’re here! Creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment is always my top priority. I maintain a calm home with plenty of space for dogs to relax, play, and feel at ease. I’m mindful of each pet’s individual needs—whether that’s quiet time, structured routines, or extra play. We’re lucky to live in an area with easy access to open grassy spaces and nearby dog parks, which means regular walks, fresh air, and social time in safe, pet-friendly areas. I only use secure, properly fitted leashes and collars, and I always supervise outdoor time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own space or a client’s home, I treat them with the same attention and love I would give my own—clear communication, safe handling, and a lot of tail wags included.

Dear Rover Team, I am writing to highly recommend my friend Yan for a position as a pet sitter with Rover. I have known Yan for three years and can confidently attest to their exceptional skills and dedication when it comes to caring for pets. Yan has consistently demonstrated a remarkable level of attentiveness and care in their interactions with animals. What sets Yan apart is their genuine passion for ensuring the well-being and happiness of the pets under their care. One of the most impressive aspects of Yan's pet-sitting approach is their commitment to keeping pet owners informed and involved. They regularly send photos and videos of the pets, providing peace of mind and allowing owners to feel connected to their furry friends even when away. In my experience, Yan has shown: Exceptional attentiveness to pets' needs Strong communication skills with both animals and their owners Reliability and punctuality A genuine love and understanding of different pet personalities The ability to handle various pet care situations with calm and competence I believe Yan would be an outstanding addition to the Rover team. Their dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals make them an ideal candidate for a pet-sitting position. Pets under Yan's care are not just looked after; they are truly cared for and loved. If you require any further information about Yan's qualifications or character, please don't hesitate to contact me. I would be more than happy to elaborate on my recommendation. Sincerely, Ethan Fu

About: I’ve been pet sitting all animals since I was 12 years old. I work with puppies/kittens and senior dogs. I am a strong walker and feel confident with reactive and strong dogs. I have no official training but I work on basic commands with dogs and can work with whatever routine they need. I love both cats and dogs and have experience with animals that need extra care like medication. I work with about 5 families that I regularly pet and house sit for and I plan on doing walks for other houses during the day. However I am mostly at home with the pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Feel free to reach out with any questions or my experience. I take pride in putting families at peace of mind knowing I am taking such great care of their animals and home. I’m hoping to do more dog walking with Rover but currently am focused on pet sitting. I do have 5 other families I pet sit for off the app. and they do get priority. However, my schedule is very open at the moment. I take pet and house sitting very seriously. I care about the health and safety of animals, and I know how much families appreciate their home being cared for while they are gone. I am a very clean person and always make sure the house is as clean (if not more) as when you leave. There is this amazing feeling of relief to come home after being away, and seeing your happy animals and clean home. I take pride in providing that experience to all my clients. I also send a lot of pictures and videos of the animals to send to clients to assure everyone is happy and well cared for.

We had a great experience with Sahil for housesitting of our pets. He was very attentive towards our dog and cat, communicated issues and questions and was very responsive. The house was also well taken care of. We had a overall positive experience and would book a housesitting or dogsitting again.

Alison did a great job watching my two dogs for a long weekend! She reached out with questions she had and sent us updates each day. She also put all of the dishes she used away and her towel in the laundry before she left which was nice. Thanks again, Alison!

About: Hi! We’re Max and Abbey – a caring and reliable pet care duo with over a decade of hands-on dog experience between us. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives, and we treat every pup we care for like family. Max grew up with two energetic and loyal German Shepherds, raising them from puppies through their senior years. That experience taught him everything from obedience training and leash discipline to administering medication and understanding the unique needs of large, active breeds. Abbey was raised with two loving Labrador Retrievers who filled her home with joy (and a little bit of slobber). She became an expert at maintaining routines, managing feeding schedules, and giving plenty of affection and playtime—especially with high-energy pups who never say no to fetch. Together, we bring a balance of structure, patience, and play that dogs thrive on. Whether it’s a relaxed walk, a high-energy play session, or overnight care, we provide a safe, positive environment your pet will love. Why Choose Us: 10+ years combined experience with large breeds Confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments Skilled in leash handling, crate routines, and safe socialization Reliable communication and real-time updates Flexible scheduling and personalized care We know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s hands—and we don’t take that lightly. If you're looking for dependable, experienced, and truly caring sitters, we’d love to meet your furry family member! Between the two of us, your dog will always have company, attention, and care. While we both have full-time schedules, we work in a way that ensures one of us is always home throughout the day. Whether it’s for walks, play breaks, or just a calm presence around the house, your pup will never be left for long stretches without companionship. We’re also home on weekends, so your dog gets even more one-on-one time, longer walks, and relaxed downtime in a cozy, loving environment. We keep a predictable routine that dogs love—meals on time, potty breaks as needed, and plenty of belly rubs in between. You can count on us to make your dog feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. Let us know your dog’s needs, and we’ll make sure they’re part of the family while they’re here! Creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment is always my top priority. I maintain a calm home with plenty of space for dogs to relax, play, and feel at ease. I’m mindful of each pet’s individual needs—whether that’s quiet time, structured routines, or extra play. We’re lucky to live in an area with easy access to open grassy spaces and nearby dog parks, which means regular walks, fresh air, and social time in safe, pet-friendly areas. I only use secure, properly fitted leashes and collars, and I always supervise outdoor time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own space or a client’s home, I treat them with the same attention and love I would give my own—clear communication, safe handling, and a lot of tail wags included.

Sahil treated Henry like a king while we were gone for the weekend. He took my list of instructions like a champ (sorry again) and sent many updates throughout the stay. This was a sitting, and he also left our studio neater than we left it 😂 Thank you so much for caring for our Henry!
