“It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience! Ericka sent regular pics and updates. When we got home our dog was happy and content. When we’ve had to use something more like daycare in the past, he just gets really stressed and barely eats. We will be using rover again in the future for sure.”
“We are so grateful to have had Allison stay with our Corgi while we were away for a week. Our dog has anxiety and typically becomes very stressed while we are away, but Allison stayed at our home, followed his usual routine as closely as possible, and made sure to give him some extra love. She would check-in with us daily to let us know how things were going and would ask questions if she was unsure of something. She was respectful with our home and belongings and made sure to leave things nice and tidy for our return. As someone who tends to leave a lot of instructions when it comes to staying with our dogs, I can’t recommend Allison enough! She truly made us feel comfortable that she had things under control so that we could enjoy our vacation.”
“My dogs were taken care of excellently! I got lots of photos and it was very clear that my entire pack (which is a crazy pack both in size and energy 🤣) was very happy! Can't recommend these two enough! Thanks so much!”
“Alyssa was amazing! We went away for a weekend and she stayed with our (needy, dramatic, loving, sweet) old dog. Our dog loves her and seemed to take to her immediately. We’ll definitely work with Alyssa again”
“Myah was great from the moment I contacted her she got back to me right away and did a meet and greet promptly! While I was away she was there consistently everyday and loved my baby like he was her own and had respect for my house as well.”
“Hannah took care of our cat and dog while we were away and everything went so smoothly. She was in touch regularly with updates and didn’t hesitate to ask any questions that she had, making for a smooth week for the pup and kitty!”
“Natalie took such good care of our Junie and our house while we were away for 10 days. It was such a relief to know that she was staying there and we loved receiving updates with photos!”
“Mary was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my two Dachshunds and treated them like they were her own. Her professionalism and clear communication gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that her experience really shows—she knew exactly how to keep my pups happy and comfortable. I would definitely use her services again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
About: I've been dog sitting for neighbors, friends, and Family since my senior year of High School. I have dogs watched all sized dogs . I love dogs, dogs love me. I think animals are better than humans. I will spoil them with walks, love and treats while they are in my care. Recently let go from my work at a non profit. Thinking my of next move. Have free time now. Need something to do while I figure out my next move. I don't have a fenced in yard but I live on a flat easy walkable street. Im also a few miles away from several different parks. Your pets are welcome to lay and sleep on the furniture (its use to it) I have a big front window they can look out if they like. I can give them meds and shots if needed.
“Kristie did an amazing job and was also very flexible with her schedule to accommodate our needs. Our pup was super happy to have lots of outings and snuggles while we were away.”
About: My family and I have taken care and rescued dogs our entire life. I have been around all kinds of animals and have so much love and care for them than I can put in words. I’ve completed a veterinary assistant course so I can put my love for these creations into action. Through my training I have gained pretty thick skin, basically saying I’m hard to gross out or to be spooked off by our furry friends. I understand how much we love our pets, so much so they quickly become family, and that in itself shows the importance of my job here. I would be honored to assist you in your pet/family care needs. I am able to take frequent breaks during the day to give much needed attention. I have always had pets or friends with pets and I’m very attentive. I have a unfenced yard, and frequently take walks. I currently have no pets residing with me so it will not cause any complications with reactive dogs.
“Becca is an awesome pet sitter! She immediately attached to our dog who is very nervous and sometimes doesn’t like people. She was so supportive of his needs.”
About: I love dogs of all sizes and have been around them my entire life! I enjoy petting, bathing, feeding, and playing with dogs of all kinds. I have two dogs at home, one of which is prone to tummy troubles and ear infections, so I am skilled at hiding pills inside a piece of cheese and administering ear drops. My youngest dog is working on not barking at the door, so I am learning more about that as well! I am currently part time, so I have a very adjustable schedule. I would absolutely love to spend most of it with your pets! I I make sure pets don’t get into things they shouldn’t, have adequate food and water, are engaged and played with, and have good, fulfilling walks and exercise.
“Just spent a long weekend away thanks to Alexis. She was able to help out on short notice, even coming by to meet me and my pup. Kept me updated with lots of photos throughout the weekend and I think my house was left better than before I went away! Thank you again!”
“Gemma did an amazing job watching Jacks and Mia. She checked in regularly and sent videos and pictures to keep me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. She took them on nice walks and made sure they were happy and well cared for. She truly went above and beyond .”
“Hannah is responsive and communicated well. She was available on short notice and was able to do a meet and greet prior to watching the gals this weekend. She sent pictures and updates and left the house as she found it.”
“We love Katrina May - she’s amazing with our animals and housesitting. She does so much to make us rest at ease with our fur family while we are away. Tons of pictures and our dogs jump for joy when they see her. Highly recommend!”
“I was VERY delighted with her warmth, adaptability, flexibility with my scheduling needs. She took great care of my two dogs and I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs. I heartily recommend her.”
Castle Shannon pet parents share their Rover experiences
Extremely carrying and professional. I feel very safe keeping my dogs with Matthew. Matthew is an amazing dog sitter and very professional! He’s good at learning about the dogs he’s caring for and adapting to their needs. I have two large dogs one of which was nervous at the start of my trip. Matthew brought in diffusers to help calm him and make him feel safe. By the second or third day both my dogs were happy and as a pet owner that’s away from your dogs seeing them happy and healthy in photos when you are away also made me enjoy my trip more. I’m very grateful to Matthew !
Trinity was amazing, she took care of our cat Bathtub for two weeks and she gave us such peace of mind! Trinity is trustworthy, sends tons of pictures and videos, is prompt in her updates of when she visits and clearly truly cares about the pets she takes care of. Couldn't ask for a better cat sitter.
I cannot recommend Lindsey enough. She stayed with my dogs over Christmas and New Year’s and went truly above and beyond. She left my house absolutely spotless and took incredible care of my dogs, treating them like her own. While we were away, one of my dogs had an unexpected reaction to her seizure medication and needed to be hospitalized. Lindsey handled the situation with such calm, care, and professionalism. Her communication was excellent, she kept me informed every step of the way, asked thoughtful questions, and worked closely with the vet and me. Because of her, I had complete peace of mind during what could have been an incredibly stressful situation and was still able to enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was in the best possible hands. Lindsey is responsible, compassionate, trustworthy, and very experienced with pets. I am beyond grateful for her and would absolutely hire her again without hesitation. Any pet would be lucky to have her as a sitter!
Sydney was so lovely! She was great with Tallulah and gave us updates and sent photos throughout our Christmas trip. She was extremely professional and let us know when our dog tore up some soft toys overnight, and even cleaned it all up for us! Tallulah is a bit of a princess and doesn't like going potty in the rain to the extent of faking a pee to get back inside... Sydney saw right through the trick and made sure she went potty. We will definitely hire Sydney again! Thanks for everything!
This was our second booking with Lauren and we could not be happier! She truly went above and beyond taking care of our 2 dogs. 3 days into our trip she contacted us to let us know she had noticed symptoms of a UTI in one of our dogs. We stayed in close communication with both Lauren and our veterinary office as we worked to figure out the best course of action. Lauren was wonderful as she collected a urine sample (which took a few attempts due to rain and darkness!) and drove to our vet’s office to collect the necessary medication then administer them over the following days. Throughout all this she still provided plenty of updates regarding normal care including meals, bathroom breaks, and playtime for the dogs. We will absolutely be rebooking Lauren for any travel needs in the future!
Katrina was absolutely wonderful! We loved her and our dog bear loved her! She provided overnight care for our beloved dog. She was spunky and fun! She was responsible and reliable and such a happy personality! She treated Bear like family! she clearly demonstrated that she is an animal lover! we will definitely use her again!
Caroline was patient and understanding with our dog Fig. She sent pictures and daily updates which made us feel more comfortable about being away from our pets and home. I would books with her again ! We were really happy with how she took care of Fig and our cats.
Gretchen took care of our clingy and anxious dog while we got married — we wanted Lima to be well taken care of while we celebrate our special day and Gretchen delivered!! Lots of cute pictures throughout the day, we are super thankful for Gretchen for taking care of our dog
Gemma did an amazing job watching Jacks and Mia. She checked in regularly and sent videos and pictures to keep me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. She took them on nice walks and made sure they were happy and well cared for. She truly went above and beyond .
Katelyn was AMAZING! It was our first time doing an in home sit but she was so accommodating with coming to meet them first and get comfortable around them. They warmed up to her immediately and were snuggled up to her the whole time. She sent frequent updates and was so quick with her responses. We will deff be using her again!! Thank you Katelyn :)
Kwame was great! He was communicative and friendly! He takes his responsibilities seriously, which was evident in the questions he asked, and how he made sure we were on the same page about the window of time he would take our dog on a walk. He kept us updated and took great care of our dog. Thank you so much Kwame, we'll definitely reach out again when we go out of town.
