“Priscilla is so fantastic with our boys. We had to leave earlier than expected, and Priscilla was able to accommodate us with just a few hours notice. Our boys are so happy when Priscilla care for them. Recommend her without reservation!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Jennifer. She came multiple timeseach day over a long weekend to feed and care for our dogs, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves animals. She not only made sure their needs were met but also spent time playing with them and giving them attention so they felt comfortable and loved while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog watcher.”


“Brynn was a great help and was very understanding in my joining on the app and using the service(s) for the first time. She was very considerate in providing with the dogs with a bit of playtime, and provided regular updates/pictures to my personal phone. I would certainly recommend her service(s) to anyone needing a sitter in the area. Thank you, again, Brynn!”


“Hey, I just wanted to give a big shout out to my new pet sitter Madeline I have an old big GreatDane named Murphy Usually, I can make it home for a little break midday to let him out, but work has been crazy lately.I always feel bad that he might be stressing about going out to the bathroom midday. So on a whim, I started researching Rover Sitter’s I really thought it was going to be a process I figured I would reach out to one or two sitters a week and do some meet and greets So I found Madeline on Rover and, she looked kind and caring, and I liked the reviews from legitimately caring pet owners So I reached out to her on Friday, she got back to me within seconds, and suggested that we meet on Saturday Wow, never thought it was going to be that quick I thought I’d have to wait and wait and wait for responses So we plan to meet and greet and I told her that my house was a little hard to find, and GPS always messes everybody up I explained to her what my house looked like Come Saturday, she arrived early, explaining that she wanted to make sure that she found my house I was impressed that somebody was very considerate of my time She came in my house and she was very calm and spoke quietly to him , which is exactly what he is used to I explained my concerns to her and how he was getting older and I worry about him. She had told me how she just recently lost her 13 year-old dachshund, and she understood how hard it is to lose a dog , I was thinking in my head , her dog must of had had a lot of love and good care if it live to be 13 years old so fast-forward to today when she did the drop in visit She sent me pictures, and she sent me a “ Report Card” She told me that she took Murphy outside and then they came inside and she just sat on the couch with him, and petted him and talk to him. Well, that’s exactly what I would’ve done with my old man. I don’t have to look any further and I don’t have to interview any more people because Madeline is the one! I appreciate her sensitivity, her promptness, her pictures, and her report card Thank you, thank you so much, Madeline, you are the best and I appreciate you so much”


“Nicky was great with the pups - very loving and very punctual! We felt a lot less guilty leaving them behind knowing that Nicky was going to be taking care of them for a few days. We’re happy to have found a reliable, trustworthy caretaker for our two big dogs!”


“Elizabeth watched our four cats over the holidays and was a great sitter! From the beginning she was super communicative and worked with our schedule. She was great with them from our needy lap cat to our scaredy cat who hid all the time. It was a great relief to know we had a reliable sitter for when we were out of the country to check in on our cats. We would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her as a sitter again.”


About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life! From dogs to cats to horses, I have both domestic and farm animal experience! I currently own a 1 year old poodle rescue, and have in-depth experience from puppies and seniors, as well as with kittens and cats! My previous precious pet was a beautiful 15 year old standard poodle and we had the best times together :) I currently work full-time from home as a Registered Nurse (RN), so I am available all days of the week, both days and nights, for drop in visits to take the best care of your furry loved ones! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I provide a calm, loving home where your pet is treated like family. You can trust they’ll be safe, well-cared for, and showered with attention while you’re away!

About: I love watching dogs. Cheapest rates around! Let me make it easier for you to celebrate and vacation! Let me sit for your pup. I...love... dogs! My parents were dog breeders for years. As a youngster, I was responsible for many of the chores. As an adult, I have always had pets. I know how important your dog is to you. Your dog is your 'baby'. We are definitely dog lovers in this house! Big dog specialist. I love the little dogs too, though! ☺️💪🎄🎁❤️🩹 I am a teacher during the day. I'm usually home by 2. Last person or of the house leaves by 9:30 am so there isn't a great deal of alone time. I have a dog run from my previous pets. Otherwise, your pup is in the house with me and my family. I am offering dog boarding services. This is a friendly Christian home. Lots of love to share.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and for over 10 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. At home, I currently care for two large dogs and a couple of cats—though at one point, we had up to five rescue animals under one roof! One of our dogs came to us with both medical and behavioral challenges, so I’m very comfortable providing specialized care, including giving medications (oral and injectable) and working with pets who have specific training needs or require a bit more patience and understanding. As a full-time artist, I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means I can provide your pet with the attention, routine, and care they deserve—whether that’s playtime, walks, medication, or simply keeping them company while you're away. I am prepared to follow whatever directions you require for your pet in home. You and your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family member!

“Elizabeth was wonderful, our poochie loved her. She is very personable and is punctual. She sent loads of pictures daily, which I loved that. I would highly recommend her services.”


About: Ive taken care of many large dogs as well as small dogs since I was 15 years old. Many required special needs and certain time frames for each individual one. It fits in perfectly as my job allows me to get in early and leave early leaving me with much of the day to take care of your beloved pets. I have taken classes in dog training and know many ways to calm as well as difuse any situations involving them. I know tips and tricks to make everything a smooth experience for your pets. I always show love and care for each animal I watch as I know there family would for them. Animals have and will always be my passion

“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing, my animals were in the best hands. Her updates, pictures and overall report how my best friends were being taken care of put me at the utmost ease. This was my first time and DEFINATELY will have Cheyenne back to care for my babies!!”


“She did a wonderful job eith my cats. They did hide on her but if I had her a few more days I am sure they would have liked her. If there is ever a time when I need a cat sitter again, I will hire her again”


“I can't say enough amazing things about Tessa! She answers so quickly whenever I reach out, is so reliable, a pro at dealing with my apartment building's annoying key situation and she always leaves the litter box area cleaner than I left it. I get great kitty pics every time she sits for me and can tell my babies are totally comfortable and getting the care they need. Thanks Tessa for being my go-to :)”


About: I have cared for dogs, particularly medium and large dogs, since my first dog 15 years ago. I am the go to contact for friends when they go out of town. I can spend up to 60 minutes per visit if requested. I'm experienced with senior dogs who need extra care and patience to move around. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy walking outside in all types of weather, so I thought I could add more to the fun by walking the dogs that need to be relieved while their family is at work or on vacation. I have a large backyard that both cats and dogs have enjoyed roaming around in and exploring. My neighborhood is quiet, safe, and extremely pet friendly.

About: Growing up I always wanted to work with animals. I worked at a pet store for a few years. In that time I learned a lot about small animals and reptiles. I ended up taking a few "misfits"home. I've taken in a Gerbil, Syrian Hamster, Crested Gecko, Parakeets, and a Green Cheeked Conure. They were the most amazing little guys. I've moved out of my parents and now have two kittens named Chowder and Liam and my green cheeked conure Charlie. Of course there are also the family pets I was not able to take when I moved out. Our dog Dodger is a hound mix and our cat Kitty I’m currently working part-time and in school part-time. So I can be pretty flexible. I’m available weekday mornings and evenings. Also weekend afternoons and evenings. When I am entering a home I always keep a calm voice. My priority is safety for both me and the pet. So getting them secure and comfortable before moving on to the tasks.

About: Keeping your pet safe and happy is the number one priority. Puppies who need to upkeep training while you’re away is no problem, dogs who need a little (or more) extra care or those seen as “difficult” are welcomed! I adhere to any medical requirements and concerns while your animal is in my care. Having a young dog myself with mobility issues I understand how daunting it can be to leave care with someone else but I assure you I will give them the attentiveness they deserve ***Please note: I DO have a dog and when necessary I split up the home to provide a happy and safe environment during the stay*** ***Please note: I live in a 2 bedroom TOWNHOUSE. There is no enclosed yard*** I work 5 minutes away from my home and am able to pop in at least once if need be during the work day and WFH 1 day a week (SAT) I am also off 3 days of the week (SUN, MON & FRI). I am a homebody and don’t often leave the house if I don’t need to, so I am home majority of the time. I have a medium-large sized crate if your pup needs it. I have a room the dogs can play in with all of their toys and sleep in for the night to feel safe and keep them out of any trouble. I also have a back/balcony with an enclosed gated area for air and sun time (I remain outside with them the entire time for safety)

“Felicity went above and beyond for me and my dog. She kept me informed throughout her visit, sent me pictures and made sure i knew my pet was in good hands. Highly recommended! Will definitely be booking again!”

Taylor is also one of the most organized and responsible people I know. She’s always cautious, well-prepared, and dependable, so you can feel completely at ease knowing your dog is in the best hands. Her attention to detail and the level of care she gives truly set her apart. She treats every dog as if they were her own. Any dog would be lucky to have her!!”
