“PIp had a wonderful time with Martine & Ron! This was pur first experience with using Rover and a bit hesitant. Once Pip and I met Martine & Ron my concerns were alleviated. They were warm & welcoming. They explained how Pip would be introduced to other guests in the house. They sent pictures throughout the stay of him having the time of his life. I would highly recommend recommend Martine & Ron!”
“Cathy took on our quirky, energetic boy with optimism and open arms. She patiently took notes on all his behavioral quirks and was happy to accommodate his need for longer walks. This was our first time boarding him, and he seemed to thrive at Cathy’s and enjoy tons of snuggles and pets. It was so nice to feel so at ease about him while we were traveling and we highly recommend Cathy!!”
“Erica took amazing care of our pup for six nights, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She provided detailed daily check-ins with lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can tell she is a true dog lover and genuinely enjoyed spending time with our dog. Her kids were wonderful as well and clearly loved having our pup there. Our dog was absolutely spoiled with attention and care. We are so grateful to Erica and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
“Olga was absolutely amazing with my two pups! She provided fantastic care and sent plenty of updates and pictures throughout their stay, which gave me total peace of mind. My dogs had so much fun playing with her children and were clearly well-loved and looked after the entire time. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: If your pet could swipe right on a sitter, I’m pretty sure they’d pick me. I’ve been caring for animals since I was about 12, and honestly, it feels like I’ve had a leash or treat pouch in my hand ever since. From childhood pets to neighbors’ pups to friends’ cats who “don’t like anyone” (but somehow curl up in my lap), animals have always been part of my daily life. I’m new to Rover but not to caring for others pets. Why choose me? *A lifetime of experience: Growing up with pets taught me patience, intuition, and how to read an animal’s needs long before they can tell you. *Calm, confident care: Whether your pet is shy, energetic, quirky, or a total diva, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and understood. *Reliable and communicative: You’ll get updates, photos, and the peace of mind that your furry family member is happy and cared for. *Genuine love for animals: This isn’t a side gig for me—it’s something I truly enjoy. Your pet becomes “my” pet while you’re away. I currently volunteer with American Brittany Rescue and the AKC. I have volunteered with the Wake County Animal Shelter in years past. I have also owned and volunteered with 2 certified therapy dogs. We visited hospitals, nursing homes and schools. Our current dog is not a good candidate for therapy dog work, but we hope to participate with Therapy Dogs Inc. again in the future. Our dog and cat are both up to date on vaccines and take monthly heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. If you want someone who treats your fur baby like their own and brings warmth, fun, and dependability to every visit, I’m your gal. Let’s make your pet’s day a great one. I request that dogs staying with us be up to date on vaccines and on flea and tick preventative. I currently work part-time from home and my hours are somewhat flexible. If your pet is in my home, I can take breaks as needed for feeding, potty breaks, and pats. Mon-Fri from 12-4 pm is less flexible for me if I am coming to your home to do a walk or potty break, as those are my busiest work hours. I will follow your provided schedule to a T, taking into account your specific routines, wishes, and needs. I understand it can be stressful for pets when their families leave, and I will do everything possible to ease that stress and make sure your pets are happy and relaxed. I am always super careful about closing doors, latching gates, and making sure everything is in order before leaving each home. Your pet's safety and well being is my number one priority. I have a very friendly dog that can accompany me on visits and walks if your dog would like companionship.
“Katie was amazing!!! Took such good care of my sweet but anxious little Sophie. Sent me updates and photos everyday and I felt like I had left my girl in really safe hands. I would absolutely work with Katie again!”
“Desire was very accommodating and sweet with Stu. Stu had a great weekend and even ate all his meals, which is rare for him to do in a new environment. We’ll definitely be boarding Stu with her in the future!”
“Griffin took care of my dog really well like his own pet. She was a bit sick when I left my pup and Griffin ensured proper medications were given. Thank you for your great service”
“Grace and Kyle have been amazing with our French bull dog Aubi! My husband and are I dentists and work full time, so Aubi would go weekly to their house for daycare while we are at work. They’ve also done overnight stays for us and have been wonderful. They take care of our baby like she’s their own! And she gets lots of exercise with them so they help keep her in shape. She gets along great with Grace’s two dogs Pinto and Beans. Grace sends lots of updates and photos and is super quick and responsive on the app. Our dog is pretty high maintenance and sometimes won’t eat when we are out of town and Grace was so kind and caring she hand fed our little diva her food. I would 100% recommend Grace and her husband to anyone looking for someone to watch their furry friends :)!”
“Kealey was amazing! We got all kinds of updates and pictures of Asher while we were away! He had the best time! We appreciate you so much. Thanks for taking the best care of our boy!!!”

We had a wonderful experience with our cat sitter! She took great care of our three cats, while we were traveling. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She was kind, reliable, and made the whole experience stress-free for us. We really appreciate her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets. We would definitely book with her again! ❤️🐱
My dog, Daisy, had the best time staying with Rachel! Rachel took Daisy on morning and evening walks. Rachel sent lots of pictures, and we could see that Daisy was very happy and was making herself at home. She was treated like a princess! I highly recommend Rachel. We will definitely book with her again!
We had a great experience with Michelle caring for Frank! She sent several photos every day and was responsive when I asked questions. It was such a comfort knowing he was in good hands while we were away. Frank requires 3x/day feedings, and she accommodated that schedule, coming home to feed him during her lunch break (she does not work from home). She also took him on long walks in the mornings, so I know he was able to get plenty of exercise and, just as importantly, lots of good sniffs in each day! Michelle also has a dog, Diamond, and I'm glad Frank had a friend to hang out with during the day. What meant the most to us was knowing that Frank wasn't simply being looked after, but genuinely cared for. I saw photos of him up on the furniture with Michelle like he was a part of her family. It's not easy leaving a beloved member of our family behind, and Michelle made that so much easier. We're grateful for the kindness and attention she gave him and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter. We'd happily have Frank stay with her again!
This was our second time having Michelle and Jose watch Mia and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! We received frequent updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. Mia was well cared for and given lots of love and attention. We’re so happy with the care they provided and will absolutely continue to use them in the future. Highly recommend!
I was blown away at the care and friendship that Disney & Jesse (& daughters) gave to my dog Goose at his recent stay. As a first time Rover user I was not sure hiw it worked and Diane helped me figure it out. Goose was very happy at their house and loved hanging out with theur dogs and cats. He always looked happy & seemed to fit right in with their household. In the pictures she sent I could see he was smiling. Thank you Rover, duane and Jesse for making my visit so wonderful and stress free.
Griffin was great! This was our first time leaving our 1 year old puppy with someone new. He kept us updated and sent photos. He took extra time on potty walks with her as she was not so used to potty walks. She received tons of snuggles and we felt like she was being well cared for.
5 stars! Anu was amazing with Jake. He had such a great time, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She was very caring, attentive, and kept us informed throughout his stay. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We would absolutely trust her with Jake again and highly recommend her! 🐶❤️

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
