“Isaac was very good with our critters, including our 20 year old cat. The dogs seemed to have a great time too. He was considerate with the house, cleaning up after himself and brought in a package that was delivered early without me needing to ask. We would rebook with Isaac.”


“We (and our dogs) loved having Nicole sit for us. She is an excellent communicator and took care of our pups like they were her own. I’d absolutely have her stay with our dogs again—and based on their lukewarm reaction to us coming home, I think they’d like to see her again too. 🤣”

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.
“Sylvia did an amazing job! Everything went smoothly and she was flexible with care given the extremely cold weather. We highly recommend and will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Emma was absolutely fantastic with our large dogs! They are a bit high maintenance in their own ways but they were taken care of perfectly! Will absolutely be booking again in the future!”

“Stacia was awesome! Our pups were happy to have us home but seemed to be well taken care of and not extra needy and they gave her lots of love before she left! We will definitely use her if she's available on our next trip.”

“Rosalina was very good with our pets (2 cats and 1 dog), especially our anxious dog. We received updates and photos while we were away and we were confident our pets were being well taken care of. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”

“Our second booking with Abigail and we are glad we booked again. She’s trustworthy and really takes care of our dog Howard like family. She sends pics and updates us every night. Will be using her again soon!”


“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: As a 19-year-old sitter, I offer compassionate senior pet care and puppy training experience, ensuring patience, energy, and dedication to keep your pets happy and healthy. Pet care is a joyful part of my daily routine, giving me purpose, structure, and happiness. I love making time for walks, play, and cuddles! I care for pets by following their feeding and exercise routines, providing fresh water, administering medication if needed, offering lots of love, and keeping their environment clean and safe.

“I booked Jen to sit my senior dog who is very sweet but particular, and she did a fantastic job. Super clearly asking about his needs and his schedule so I could go on a family trip with no worries about my boy. Super timely and clear updates with fantastic pictures that made me feel immediately comforted. I’m looking forward to booking with Jen again when Peanut needs some extra care.”

“Elizabeth was amazing with my dog while I was traveling for work. She sent daily updates and many pictures. I would definitely use her services again.”

“Shatoria was a joy to have in our home, so much so that our dogs did not even care when we came back after nearly two weeks away, and ran right upstairs to her room to look for her. Excellent communication and attention to detail, and I am almost certain our home was cleaner when she left than when she arrived. Easily the best pet care experience we’ve had. Booking again ASAP.”

“It was comforting to have Kristin in our home pet sitting while we were away. Very professional and caring with our pup. It was a relief to know that if there was an emergency she could take care of it. Coco loves Kristin! Thank you for taking such good care of her!”

About: I started pet sitting at age 12. I’m comfortable with all animals from exotic to barnyard (ex. Horses, pigs, bearded dragons, wolf-dogs, fox, skunks, parrots and ferrets). I have had my dog for seven years, and my senior cat for one year. I currently do Rover full-time! I am a busy bee- I’m also a student at Edgewood College and a new mom! I love taking regulars and new clients! My pets are crate trained and respect boundaries. I also have baby gates for separation. I do not require crate training but it is extremely helpful if your pet is, so please let me know!
About: I’ve loved dogs since I can remember. Since my parents are allergic I could not own one growing up so I volunteered walking all different sorts of dogs at our local shelter. Along with that, I’ve dog sat most of my life and brought shelter dogs on road trips and many other fun adventures. I work nights at Starbucks, so I have mornings, early afternoons, and nights open ( as I only work until 7:45pm) ! I have three days off a week to go on adventures, and looove being outside! Making a pet feel comfortable and loved is so so important. Any instructions are always followed and I love being able to create my own bond with the animal as well!
