Jordan was so wonderful! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She stayed in our home with our dog Judah for a week. We received updates, photos and videos multiple times a day. It was clear that Judah was happy and very well cared for. We felt completely stress-free knowing Judah and our home were in good hands. Highly recommend! Thanks Jordan 😊

Ashley was absolutely amazing with my babies. My original boarding was fully booked so I was hesitant to use Rover, but she made me feel at ease. She provided lots of updates and photos - will definitely be using her again! :)

Katherine did it again! She was a house and puppy sitter for an entire week and was amazing. This is my second time using her service with zero complaints. She will always be my first option.

Keyla was wonderful with my golden retriever Freja. She let me know when she was there and took pictures to show how happy Freja was with her. When I got home Freja was happy as can be and not stressed that I had been gone for the weekend.

My Ruby girl had an excellent time with Rhonda, getting spoiled with walks and extra love over Christmas. Rhoda went above and beyond the call of duty and even took care of some household stuff. She communicated with me often and sent lots of pictures. I had such peace of mind knowing that Rhoda was caring for Ruby so well. I cannot say enough good about her!

Allison, did an excellent job! She is proactive and immediately stepped in and helped us on short notice. She was reliable and excellent with our 3 dogs and even cleaned the house before we came home. Our dogs were well taken care of!

Mark was an amazing dog sitter! He treated my dogs like his own, so I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing he was there with them. He kept me updated while I was away with pictures and videos. Mark even offered to cut my dog’s nails for me when I mentioned one dog made it difficult to do. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!

About: I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, and have grown to really enjoy caring for cats as well. I have a bunny of my own, so I understand how important it is to give pets daily attention, patience, and love. I’m known by friends and family for being great with animals, and I’ve even been recommended to work at a grooming and dog care store. I’m gentle, reliable, and focused on making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I can provide reliable dog walking and drop-in visits when your pets need them most. Whether it’s a morning stroll, an afternoon check-in, or some evening cuddle time, I make sure every pet gets exercise, attention, and love. I understand how important it is for pets to feel happy and safe while you’re away, and I tailor my visits to fit their needs—and your schedule! I make sure they’re always supervised, have plenty of water and comfort, and get lots of love and attention. Your pets will have fun and feel cared for while you’re away, so you can return knowing they’re happy and safe!

About: I have hands-on experience working as a veterinary technician, which gave me valuable experience handling animals, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and assisting with daily pet care needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience and attention. As someone planning to continue pursuing veterinary medicine, I truly care about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive to routines and instructions, and I treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already have a flexible schedule and a strong background working with animals. I’m typically available before and after my classes/work shifts, as well as on weekends, which allows me to consistently provide morning, midday, and evening care depending on your pet’s needs. Because I previously worked as a vet tech for, I’m used to structuring my day around animal care responsibilities like feeding schedules, medication times, walks, and monitoring behavior. I’m organized and good at planning ahead, so I can easily adjust my routine to make sure each pet gets reliable, on-time care and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, walk routines, and any specific behavioral or medical needs. My experience as a vet tech has helped me stay calm and observant, so I can quickly notice if something seems off with a pet’s behavior or health. I also make sure the home stays secure by double-checking doors, gates, and leashes during walks. I respect the client’s space by keeping things clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. Most importantly, I focus on making pets feel comfortable and stress-free by giving them patience, attention, and a calm presence while their owners are away.

About: As a cat parent, I know the struggle that parting on trips brings. I have found they do best at home where they are most comfortable with a trusted caretaker. I am in college but rather flexible so I can help you on a case by case basis. My schedule changes due to the nature of classes but if you reach out I can almost certainly help! I offer walks, drop bys and overnights for clients in which I care for your animal and leave with no trace evidence of me ever having been there. Besides the happy animal!

Could not have asked for more from Patrick! He was extremely easy to work with and did a fantastic job watching my dog Koda for 8 nights. He sent frequent updates with pictures, videos and even went above and beyond to give Koda a bath. He was very responsive and made me feel so at ease. I will definitely book with him again!

About: Although I work with humans in the medical field, helping animals has always been another passion of mine. Growing up I was the go to dog sitter for family and friends. Over the past 2 years I have become heavily involved at a local rescue. This has given me experience caring for all kinds of dogs (and cats!). Fostering animals in my home has taught me how to care for dogs of all ages and temperaments. I’ve also had to perform medicated baths and administer medications to dogs and cats. One day, I hope to open my own dog rescue ! My fiancée has been a dog sitter on Rover for about a year, so now we are joining forces to give dogs the most attention and care while their parents are gone. I work 3 days a week in the hospital. My fiancé works from home. Between the two of us, we are available to your pet almost any day/time. We have two, big pups who love small/medium dog friends! If we have a foster dog in the house or you have a large dog, we would prefer to dog sit at your home. We would make sure the dog obeys all rules of the house….but if they’re allowed in bed at night that’s where they’ll be !

This was our second time using Emma and hope she will be available for all of our future trips. Our Chihuahuas feel comfortable with her and they were snuggling with her. She takes real good care of them and this time had to give medications to one and she made sure she communicated about the times medication were given and when they were fed etc. She left our house clean and even washed the bedsheets from the guest bed. Which was more than expected.

About: “I have experience pet sitting for friends and family, along with personally raising multiple dogs over the years. I’m familiar with daily care routines like feeding, walking, cleaning up, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I’ve also cared for small animals, including a hamster, so I understand the importance of gentle handling and attention to detail. I treat every pet like family and make sure they get plenty of love, patience, and care.” “I have a pretty open schedule, so pet care fits easily into my day. I’m home most of the time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, keep up with their routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and not alone. I’m also home in the evenings, so they’ll have consistent care throughout the day and night.” In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I have a large indoor area where pets can move around freely and comfortably, as well as a spacious back patio for supervised outdoor time. Pets will have access to regular potty breaks and exercise throughout the day, and there is a nearby dog park and walking trail for additional outdoor activity when appropriate. I provide cozy bedding, toys for enrichment, and treats (with owner approval). I also make sure pets stay on their normal feeding routine and follow any specific instructions given by the owner, including dietary needs or restrictions. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine closely to help pets feel safe and maintain consistency in their environment. My priority is always to ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

We would definitely book with Mark again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.

If we could give Madison 6 out of 5 stars, we absolutely would! She takes such amazing care of our girls, and it’s obvious from how excited and comfortable they are with her every time. This was also the first time we’ve ever had someone stay overnight with them, and Madison was an absolute rockstar. Knowing Khione and Mimsy were so well cared for gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter, and we honestly wouldn’t choose anyone else. We can’t recommend Madison highly enough!

I can’t even begin to explain how amazing Rico was during our 2 weeks away from our beloved pup. I’ve read reviews saying “my dog might like Rico more than me” and I agree😂 Our dog definitely built a strong bond with Rico. He would send updates, report cards, and pics/videos DAILY! He didn’t just dog sit but he spent time training, nurturing and caring for our boy. He was very thorough and even asked questions that I didn’t think of! Very trustworthy, reliable and professional. 100/10 recommend (but beware your dog may not want you to come back😂) !! Signing up for training sessions ASAP. He’s awesome!

Laura was fantastic. She was easy to communicate with and took really great care of Yogi. He has separation anxiety but when I got home, Yogi was calm, happy, and had been well cared for. The house looked exactly how I left it, and Yogi was relaxed and clearly had a great time. It’s not easy to find someone you can trust with both your home and your dog, but Laura earned that trust. She’s responsible, kind, attentive, accommodating, and trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking her again.
