“Nick was an amazing sitter for my dog Leonard! The peace of mind was really something that was invaluable. Plenty of contact and accommodation for my travel schedule, really can't recommend him enough!”

“Devona took great care of our dog while out of town for three nights. He’s a rescue with some separation anxiety, so we were hesitant to board him. Having Devona stay during the evenings and overnight worked out great. A++ communication both before and after after our booking. We highly recommend her!”

“Yelena was great, easy to reach and communicate with. Skai loved her and she even left her a new toy to play with! You can tell she is very experienced with dogs especially being that Skai can be very hyper but it did not seem to bother her at all. I would definitely book again, she made things very easy and smooth thank you :)”

“Kiri is the absolute best dog/house sitter we have ever had! I loved her, my pups loved her, and she was in constant communication with me the entire time we were gone. The absolute best!!!”

“Marie is the BEST! I am so thankful that I left my sweet, sometimes challenging, senior dog with Marie during my trip to Europe. Marie is confident with all kinds of medications and based on all of the photos she sent, my dog enjoyed was beyond loved and happy the whole time. Traveling with the comfort, knowing that my pup was taken care of meant everything to me. Thank you, Marie!!”

“This was my first time using Rover for my 4 dogs and Colleen was amazing! She had great communication through the entire stay and I felt like my dogs were in great hands. I was not worried for a minute while they were in her care. I will definitely be rebooking Colleen in the future.”


“Juli is the best! She writes beautiful diaries about my Lui and Maple’s day. You can see she takes great pride in her work. She also takes amazing pictures and videos. I’m really grateful for her.”

“Susan was absolutely fantastic! She took care of Toto as if he were her own, gave us constant updates, very responsive. She even remade the bed. Incredible service, and so grateful to be able to enjoy our trip knowing our little guy was well cared for and loved back home. 10/10”


About: Hello neighbor! I would love to be your four pawed family member's newest bff. I have years of experience caring for dogs, and currently work with Fairytail Petcare services as a dog's plus one to their owner's weddings, and formerly on other pet care service apps. I have lots of experience with a variety of dogs; different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My own dog struggles with strangers, so I understand how difficult it can be to find a dog walker that understands dog body language, and pet consent. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have, I'm excited for the opportunity to care for your beloved family member. I have full availability, please send a request and I'll let you know if I'm available during that visit if I'm not already booked. Thanks! I treat your home how I would like my home to be treated. If you would like me to remove my shoes at the door, I'm happy to do so. Whatever makes you the most comfortable so your dog can receive the care they need.
“Jayden did a great job housesitting my dog! She followed all my instructions and was very responsive. She made sure to send me lots of great pictures and updates. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands.”

“My doodles were so well taken care of. I was in the hospital and I knew I had nothing to worry about with Kris being there. I would highly recommend her to anyone. You can just tell she loves animals. Thanks Kris! ♥️”

About: My family has always had dogs while I was growing up. I love all breeds of dogs and would enjoy dog sitting, dog walking, or even checking on them! My pictures include my family’s dogs. Although it looks like a lot of laying around due to her anxiety and wanting to cuddle, I do enjoy playing and going on walks with dogs. I work full time as a teacher in Osceola County. I’m typically available during most weekends. I’m also available some evenings throughout the week, after 4:30-5pm. I do not currently have pets in my home. I am willing to go to parks to walk and play, or dog parks while taking care of someone’s dog (only if they are trained and dog friendly).

“Taylor was amazing! We have an anxious pup who is not used to being left. Our pup was anxious at first but quickly warmed to Taylor. Taylor took great care of her and sent many pictures along the way. We highly recommend!!”

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life. Working at a vet office and going to college to become a veterinarian. Good with puppies, kittens, any old pups and cats too. Able to give medication if needed or just the care and attention they need. I'm part time at a veterinary clinic, so I have quite a bit of free time and I make sure to fit things into my schedule. I love animals so I would be willing to stay with your pet for a while each time. I make sure everyone is fed, has water, gone on walks or even just run around. I play with the animals for a bit and depending if you want me to stay longer at the house I can spend time with the baby.
“My first experience with Rover is with Cristina, Cristina is fabulous with our puppy, Dash. Cristina played with Dash, brought him to the dog park and took him on various walks. Cristina is very pleasant, happy, and passes on her confident personality which makes a first-time Rover-user like me, feel confident when leaving their puppy with the caretaker for the day!! And Dash could sense immediately the pleasant character of Cristina, so he showed readiness in leaving his Mama, which came as a surprise to me!! When we come back to Central Florida, we will give you a shout! Thank you Cristina!”


“Thanya was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of Molly and sent lots of pictures / updates. She also noticed an issue with my dog that led me to make vet appointment and now Molly is on the path to healing. I highly recommend Thanya and hope to use her again.”


About: I currently live in Canton right by Patterson Park. I have 1 dog, Joy. She is a black lab/pit mix who is a just over two years old. She loves to play with other dogs and is super friendly! But I have been caring for dogs and cats my whole life and take it seriously. Having fun and being safe is the way to be! I am always looking for fun ways to keep the animals active and ensuring that their safety is always top of mind. I live near several dog parks and take Joy out several times per week. She would absolutely love to have a friend or two to play with and to get all of that energy out. My two cats are about 8 years old and don’t play with dogs, but will tolerate them, as cats do haha!
“Danny has been such a valuable help! We travel a lot and have relied on family/friends for so long and have been hesitant to find a sitter because our dogs are difficult. As rescue dogs, they are afraid to go outside, have special dietary preferences, and are very hesitant to meet new people. Danny somehow makes them feel comfortable and takes the best pictures of them, which means they are comfortable interacting with him! We are so thankful for his help and will definitely be using his sitting services again!”

Catalina pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kevin was absolutely amazing watching my two dogs for three days. From the start, he was super communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure everything went smoothly. He kept me updated, followed all instructions, and treated my dogs like his own. I came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pups, which says everything. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Kevin to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely great with dogs. I’ll definitely be reaching

Danii took excellent care of our 15-year-old dog, Ghetta, in our home for 26 days. She was always quick to respond and consistently sent photos, videos, and daily progress reports. Danii handled Ghetta’s medication and special needs with remarkable attention. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy dog. She even waited for us when our flight was delayed, which we truly appreciated. Thank you so much!

This is the second time that Nick has taken wonderful care of my kitty, Ivy and I have him booked for two more times in the coming months. Nick is an excellent pet sitter. He communicates frequently, makes sure that Ivy gets cuddles and treats and looks after my home. I highly recommend Nick for overnight pet sitting!!

My first experience with Rover is with Cristina, Cristina is fabulous with our puppy, Dash. Cristina played with Dash, brought him to the dog park and took him on various walks. Cristina is very pleasant, happy, and passes on her confident personality which makes a first-time Rover-user like me, feel confident when leaving their puppy with the caretaker for the day!! And Dash could sense immediately the pleasant character of Cristina, so he showed readiness in leaving his Mama, which came as a surprise to me!! When we come back to Central Florida, we will give you a shout! Thank you Cristina!

We are absolutely delighted with Maria! We left our beloved dog, Ami, with her for two days while we were at an amusement park. I was extremely worried, as I had never trusted Ami with someone new before, but Maria immediately found a way to connect with our girl. Maria is a very sweet, kind, and responsible sitter. She was always communicative and regularly sent us photo updates of how they were spending their time. This truly helped put my mind at ease! Ami didn't just get along with Maria—she was literally showering her with kisses! This is the best sign that our dog felt comfortable and secure. We will definitely be booking Maria again and recommend her to everyone!

Outstanding care for Juuls. Couldn't recommend Alinna more highly. We were so happy with Alinna's care for our home and Juuls while we were away. As a nervous pet owner, it can be stressful to leave our furry friend, but Alinna put us at ease from the very beginning. She is incredibly reliable, professional, and humorous keeping our pet's routine perfectly. We especially loved the daily updates with photos. It was such a comfort to see Juuls looking so happy and relaxed in every update. Not only did she provide top-notch care for our pet, but they also took excellent care of our home. We returned to a happy animal and a pristine house. We wouldn't hesitate to book Alinna again and recommend them wholeheartedly to any pet owner. 💯💫💫💫
