“Matt is wonderful to stay with our pup. We even noticed our husky was sad that he left after the last stay of almost 2 weeks. Sends updates, can replace bulbs, and is a supper kind animal person!”

“Joanne took such great care of my cat, Frankie, and my home. Frankie can be a little skittish and she warmed up to her very fast, she’s the cat whisperer! I received lots of photos and videos with regular updates. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

“We had an amazing experience with Adrienne! She stayed with Mickey and kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable pictures, which gave us a peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Mickey was well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. We truly appreciated the communication and attention to detail. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend Adrienne to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Sara took care of our 2 dogs while my family was away for the weekend. She took great care of the dogs, sent pictures and left the house clean and just as we left it. She was attentive to the dogs and followed the routine we usually do with them. I would absolutely use her again”

“So happy to have worked with Julia. She took care of our dog and left out house in great order. Sent us pictures and updates too! Will certainly hire her again if she is available.”

“Highly recommend! Great experience for my 2 pups' stay cation at Jennifer's home. My boys had fun playing with Sammy and they received so much TLC from Jennifer and her family! She goes above and beyond to make sure our boys feel loved and well taken care of while I was away.”

“Alexia was absolutely wonderful with our 2 pups and I am so glad we booked with her! She stayed with our pups all day and did an amazing job! Our older golden just had ACL surgery so she was great with taking extra care of him! Our younger golden has a lot of energy and she did great at keeping him entertained and happy. We will definitely be booking again! It was so great to be able to go away for the day and know our pups were happy and very well cared for!”

“Jessica has cared for our pups 3 times now. They're not the easiest to handle at times but she's a true Godsend. She's very detail oriented about their routines and habits and very patient when needed. She took great care of the house while we were gone for a week as well. So glad we found her and will definitely have her watch our pups again and again.”


About: Life-long animal lover ready to take care of your little buddy like I would my own. I approach pet care with patience, respect, and love. I make it a priority to pay attention to what a pet is communicating via body language and other behaviors to ensure they are getting what they need and feel safe. I also have plenty of experience living with cats of all ages and understand their unique "language" and needs. I have raised my Westie, Clover, from 8 weeks to the spirited and adventurous little dude he is today, and I have even taught some old dogs new tricks! Can't wait to meet your little guys! I currently have plenty of flexibility in my schedule, and I don't mind early mornings if that timeframe is needed, so please don't hesitate to inquire! I have reliable transportation and my vehicle can handle some ice and snow during the winter months. During my time with your pet, I will monitor their needs and make sure they have their preferences are met and that they have plenty of time to hydrate, have meals, etc. For example, when my own dog doesn't immediately accept water, I make sure to change the water out and/or give it a clean before refilling, instead of assuming he just isn't thirsty. Time, patience, and understanding of each pet as individuals goes a long way!

About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I had a bunch of family dogs and recently this past summer got my first puppy and I’ve been great caring for her. I adore all breeds and I love playing and caring for them! I work part time but not much so I am typically available most of the time whenever it is needed. My schedule is very lenient so I should be able to provide care for your pet(s) often. I take my puppy on a daily walk, she eats twice a day and sometimes I cook for her. I have her outside a lot because she really enjoys it so she gets potty breaks frequently. I also spend a lot of time playing with her and cuddling her.
“Taylor was great with our old pup and very shy kitty for a long weekend. She was very responsive and sent us photos of them throughout the weekend. Thanks for taking such good care of them!”

“Dominika did a great job taking care of our three cats and tiny dog while the entire family took a long-awaited vacation. We usually leave a family member at home to care for the pets as we have very detailed care instructions. She and her family have experience with our rare breed of dog, Prague Ratters, and our boy Vozel loves her! Excellent communication and photos every day. Will definitely book Dominika again!”

“Taylor did a fantastic job dog sitting for us over a long weekend. She sent us pics, kept us up to date on how the dogs were doing, etc. Very, very pleased and will book her again!”

“Went above and beyond, after being failed by multiple sitters and almost losing hope, David agreed to sit and even made sure I didn’t miss my 6:45am plane. He arrived at my place at 3:30am!!!!! I am very impressed and would definitely book you again. No doubt this sitter has set the standard!!!!”

“Heidi tool great care of my pup, Felix. She was very organized and made sure she had a list of questions to fully understand his routine before I went out of town. She made sure to give me updates throughout the day and was responsive to all my inquiries. I highly recommend Heidi for any of your pet care needs!”

About: I have a Belgian golden retriever and Australian Shepherd that I love being active with and hanging out with. I love all dog breeds specifically, big active dogs. I work full-time, but get off midday and have weekends off. I have a lot of free time to care for my puppies and training them. I think puppy safety is the number one priority and you can never be too cautious whether it’s in the home or around other dogs
“Kaila was amazing!! She took care of my German Shepherd while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated the whole time and I’m so grateful she took such a good care of my baby!”

“Kelly did a great job with my boys, stayed with them and they were not stressed at all! Sent pictures to keep me updated too. Appreciate her service, and she will be rebooked for sure!”
“We had Alyssa at our house for a week and our dogs seemed to really like her. When we got back they weren’t agitated or anxious or anything. I loved the pictures and updates she sent too. She even noticed one of my dogs was having bad allergies and let me know about it so I could tell her where the allergy medicine was.”

Burkittsville pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are always concerned about finding the right person to take care of our dogs when we are away. Maya is a college student, so summer is the perfect time for her to stay with our dogs. She also fed our fish and chickens and watered flowers. Our two Dobermans were happy with Maya, and she sent us text photos to keep us informed. Having someone trustworthy staying in our home with our dogs was a huge relief. She is a lovely person.
