“Zackary was so awesome! We was super communicative and seemed to spend a lot of time at home with our two kitties boys. He asked questions when needed, checked in often and sent cute pictures! Our kitties were definitely happy when we got home and he was respectful of our space. Thank you so much Zack, the boys will be happy to see you in the future 😊”

“I'm so happy our first time using Rover was with Kailyn since we had such a positive experience. She stayed at our house with our dog, and he was well loved the whole vacation. We got picture updates throughout our time away which helped us feel at ease knowing he was well taken care of. Kailyn came to meet our dog before the stay, and they instantly clicked. She played fetch with him daily, and was a loving companion for our dog. We wouldn't hesitate to choose Kailyn again the next time we need a sitter.”

“Hayley did a great job with our girls. I can always tell when they are well cared for because when we come home they barely notice we are gone. And they let us know if they are not! :) Hayley kept me well informed and sent pictures. Definitely recommend!”

Carrie M.

“First time using Rover. Trinty contacted us to make sure our address was correct. She sent an update, complete with picture. It was an easy job with an old dog and he seemed very content. Will use her again.”

“Danielle took great care of our high energy pup! She sent us regular updates and pictures, which really helped us feel at ease! Our home was even cleaner than we left it. She even got our pup a couple toys! I would definitely recommend Danielle to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets and am looking forward to having her care for our pup again!”

“Phillip did a great job watching my doggo. He sent photos and updates which helped ease the separation. One photo was so funny I am printing it for my office desk. He left the house exactly as it was and I absolutely would rebook for our next trip.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, starting with in-home dog sitting as a teenager and continuing ever since. I have extensive experience with larger breeds, including German Shepherds and other high-energy dogs, and I’m very comfortable handling strong, active personalities. I’m also a Malinois owner, so I understand the level of structure, exercise, and attention that working breeds need. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just consistent, reliable care, I’m someone you can trust to treat them like my own. In addition to dogs, I’ve also provided in-home care for cats and am comfortable with a variety of temperaments and needs. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am a part-tome firefighter/paramedic and have a fairly flexible schedule. I typically end up having a lot of days free especially this summer. Reach out with your needs and we can see what we can work out! I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for your pets. As a firefighter/paramedic, I’m trained to stay calm, aware, and handle unexpected situations quickly and responsibly. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive to behavior changes and make sure your pet is always secure on walks and in the home. I’m experienced with large and high-energy dogs, so I’m confident handling strong or reactive dogs safely. Clear communication is important to me, and I’ll keep you updated so you always feel comfortable and informed while you’re away.

About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.

“Karina was wonderful. She took care of our dog overnight and stayed at our house. Everything went very well, and Archie loved her. I will definitely use her again.”

“Shatoria was great. She engaged my two pups quite a bit. I received lots of photos of happy dogs, some cuddling with her - a good sign! The house was in excellent order, just as I left it. I plan to invite her to house/dog sit again. Thanks Shatoria!”

About: What sets me apart is my extensive hands-on experience and dedication to understanding every dog’s individual needs. I’ve been active in dog agility for over seven years, which has strengthened my training skills and ability to communicate clearly with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. With two years of experience working in a veterinary clinic, I’m confident handling dogs with various behavioral and medical needs — including those who are nervous or anxious. I provide calm, structured, and compassionate care, ensuring each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I'm currently a college student, and do a mix of online and in person classes, with no more than one per day, meaning I have a lot of time to care for your pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine and environment as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow all care instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and favorite activities — to make sure your pet feels safe and secure while you’re away. I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious pets, and ensure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep your home tidy and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet the same love and structure they enjoy when you’re home.

“Thank you so much for taking care of our puppies! We loved the pictures :-) they seemed very happy when we got home! Please come watch them again!”

“**Sulley Says 5 paws up for Laura! This was our first time using Rover.com and we were nervous about leaving our dog, Sulley, who has separation anxiety. We usually board him, but he gets so stressed, we decided to try something new. **We hit the jackpot with Laura! From the Meet and Greet to Waving Goodbye: Laura is incredibly reliable and listens attentively to everything you tell her about your pet's needs and preferences. She met with us at our house before the trip, and at our request, even came for a second visit so Sulley could get used to her without us there. **Peace of Mind While We Were Away: While we were gone, Laura sent us pictures and videos of Sulley, keeping us updated and feeling good about our furry friend. We even have pet cameras, which we offered to turn off, but Laura insisted on leaving on for our peace of mind. **A Happy Return: We came home to a very content Sulley! Laura clearly went above and beyond, even washing all the used linens and towels, and leaving the house spotless. **More Than Just a Pet Sitter: Laura is a 10 out of 10! She's not just a pet sitter, she's a lifesaver for pet parents with anxious pups like Sulley. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy, caring, and detail-oriented pet sitter. Thank you, Laura!”
