“Jessica is a wonderful doggie sitter 5 +++stars! We have 3 dogs so she had her hands full ! Jessica was so amazing with them as one of our boys is elderly at 16.5 years old and needed a little more tlc. Jessica went above an beyond with them & we couldn't be more thrilled and happy they were looked after so well. I think the dogs wish she was still here instead of us with all of there extra attention they received . We would hands down book Jessica again for our next trip.”
About: I went to college for Veterinary Assisting in 2019, and have had various experiences. I've worked in Vet clinics and hospitals and frequently pet sit for friends and family. I have a huge love of animals of every kind! From the furry, to the scaly, and even the feathered! I have experience working with animals from all stages of life, as well as furry friends with specialized diets. Put your faith in me and you won't be disappointed! I am currently working a job that involves me being there 5 days a week: Monday & Friday 2:30-6, and Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday 12:30-6, but are able to make morning visits, evening visits and even overnight if needed. Weekends are completely available to me and can take time off for your furry friends if needed. This is dependent on the species, breed and what their specific needs are. For example, in college, I owned 2 rats who needed consistent enrichment activities, regular baths and grooming, as well as all the love and snuggles they wanted! They both lived 2 very long happy lives up until and even past their life expectancy. I now own a large and thriving aquarium which I love and adore.
“This was my second time asking Bozhena to take care of my dog and she once again delivered excellent, worry-free care, even going as far as noting that my dog was restless overnight and taking him outside at 2:30am just in case his tummy was upset. My house is always spotless when I come home too. I highly recommend Bozhena!!”

I’m comfortable with: -Dogs of all sizes and breeds -High-energy dogs that need active walks -Shy or nervous dogs that require patience -Maintaining consistent routines for feeding, walking, and play What sets me apart is my attention to detail and genuine care.

“Hayley was fantastic. The dogs absolutely adored her, so much so that within an hour of arriving, they both were on the couch with her as close as they could get. Hayley was exactly what we had hoped for and would recommend her without hesitation.”
“We had an amazing experience with Aprisheh! She went above and beyond caring for our English Bulldog, Bowie. From the moment they met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals. She gave him so much affection and attention, made sure his needs were met, and kept us updated so we felt totally at ease while we were away. Bowie can be a bit of a couch potato, but she understood his pace and personality perfectly. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that means everything. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, loving, and truly attentive.”
“Maria is an awesome dog sitter!! Our dog, Rok, just loves her. She takes great care of him. She’s reliable and responsible, and we trust her completely. I’m always glad that she’s available when I go to book her, because there isn’t anyone else we would rather have!!! 😎”
“Ella was very attentive to Sage and sent lots of pictures of their playtime. Her communication regarding the house sitting was clear and timely. I would absolutely recommend her to take care of anyone's fur babies.😊”
About: ***PRICE TRANSPARENCY: It's come to my attention that Rover service fees are inflating prices for what you can see on my profile. I am not happy about this. I am currently (Feb 2026) making $19.20 per 30 min drop-in/walk, but the posted price by Rover is much higher <---It was never my intention to charge this much, and I encourage clients to send Rover Support feedback about their fees, pricing and how their hijacking sitters' profiles by doing this. . If you are unable to afford the current price, please message me anyway, and I can try to work within your budget. I'm an experienced Foster home, home visit and phone screener previously for a few home based rescues for dogs and cats. I've owned dogs and currently have 4 rescue cats. Adopt, don't shop is how I live. Experience and age (mine lol) matter. I love pets; I've opened my home numerous times to foster animals. I regard myself as an important link in the chain to allow pet owners to keep their pets instead of having to give them up due to having to work outside the home, or other reasons that we confront in rescue :) I collect pet food donations from PetValu partners in the city and give to citizens in need & sanctuaries. I want to make a difference. Creator of Ava's Foundation. I work a hybrid schedule, therefore many days of the week I am available for a drop in to your own place or possibly dog walking before work, during the work day, after work and in the evenings. I try to build up rapport with the dog or cat in question by talking to them as I enter the house, make them feel at ease with my voice in my presence, so that they love to see me and know that I mean fun and games and FOOD. I always make sure that the litter is cleaned or the dog is petted and loved and I’ve even taken care of rabbits who loved to see me because they knew that they would get fun and treats and their living area cleaned and tidied..

“Michelle was wonderful with our senior dog who has separation anxiety. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions and was very understanding of his issues. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats and horses! I am comfortable with feeding, walks, administering meds, and check ins.

I am currently working part time while doing school online with a flexible schedule. I have lots of free time currently for walks and check ins. I prioritize safety, trust and a calm environment with all of my pet care. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully in order to stick to the pets normal routines.
“During our week-long vacation in the Bahamas, Sara took exceptional care of our dog, Bowie. We were initially anxious about leaving him with someone he didn’t know, but as soon as Sara walked in, Bowie immediately connected with her. Even our 1-year-old son felt comfortable around her. Sara exudes a kind and gentle energy that assured us Bowie was in good hands. Opting to stay at our home, she catered to Bowie's comfort, which is crucial given his tendency to get anxious in new places. Sara took him on long, enjoyable walks multiple times a day and showered him with attention. We're immensely grateful to Sara for her kindness and care towards Bowie. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience for our furry family member.”

Ella house sat and watched our two big dogs for a week. The boys had loads of fun, great walks, and the house was really clean when we came home! We have a reactive anxious dog and she was able to accommodate his crazy :) - would def recommend and we will be using again.
I'm so grateful I found Amanda on Rover. I can tell by the pics she sent me how comfortable Cornie felt with her and I'm so grateful. It's always difficult to leave my baby and all the updates made it so much easier. I'll definitely be booking Amanda in the future.
Jessica seemed to a wonderful job looking after Emma. This was our first experience with a private dog sitter. Emma told me she did a good job walking her in a timely fashion. The only thing that Emma(the dog),was that she did not think that she got enough food. 😁. Over all we were very pleased with the whole experience. 👍
Anna was a wonderful sitter for my two pups. They had an amazing time and were well cared for and tired out by the time we got back. She kept us updated throughout the day and sent lots of pictures of their happy faces. I would definitely recommend Anna to anyone looking for a sitter.
