“Carolina watched our little guy for a couple days and we couldn’t have asked for more. She was extremely easy to communicate with, was flexible and understanding when we needed to delay our drop-off, and sent several pictures our way which helped our kiddos feel connected to their furry brother while they were apart. 💜”


“My family and I were going away for an extended period of time and needed a sitter for our doggy while we were away. I checked out some Rover options and decided on a sitter and she quickly accepted my request. I went to her house to visit prior to leaving my dog with her, and she and her husband were very welcoming opening their home to me to show me where my doggy would be housed for the extended period of time. That made me feel very comfortable leaving her there under their care in that as most of you know, our doggies are like our children and that’s most definitely the way we feel about our dog. Mary and her husband took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures and I could tell that she was being loved and that she was comfortable and happy throughout the stay which made me feel very good and at ease during our trip, Thank you Mary for taking such great care of our dog, and I would highly recommend her to other dog owners looking for someone that is compassionate about dogs snd has a beautiful home that is very well suited for pets to be really comfortable and safe.”


“We love leaving our dogs with Rebecca! They are so responsive, willing to flex when travel plans are out of our hands, and send plenty of pictures which helps us feel good about our dogs while away. Thank you so much!”


“This was our first time using a sitter and the experience was made wonderful by such a wonderful couple. Our pup had a blast, the updates was wonderful. Plenty of out door play time. This will be our choice for any future need of out pets.”


“Shayne was super amazing in taking care of my Golden pup! I can tell he had a great time with her from the pictures she sent me and she was also very communicative, keeping me updated with everything. I’ll totally book her again to look after my baby next time I leave town and absolutely recommend her to look after your fur babies!”


“The drop-off and pick-up process were seamless, facilitated by Lily's exceptional service. Throughout Nellie's stay, Lily demonstrated adept care and provided regular updates through photos and videos, showcasing her commitment to both Nellie and I. Lily's evident passion for dogs and their well-being underscores her dedication to her role. I enthusiastically endorse her services.”


“I'm so happy i found Autumn and my fur baby is too! Autumn was great about providing updates during my pup’s stay. I had piece of mind during the 11 day stay at Autumn’s and i know my pup had a blast! Will definitely be continue to use Autumn’s services.”


“Received pictures almost daily from Sean, reporting on how my small dog Bentley was doing. I'm pleased with the care he received. He answered all my questions. He gave 2 different medicines daily that my dog needed, which I really appreciated. Bentley was safe in their fenced back yard and could climb on their sofa, which he likes to do.”


“Five stars! This woman is amazing! She doesn’t have other animals for specific reasons. Like my dog she hates other animals so Hannah was great! She sent me pictures of Coco every day multiple times. And she follows certain requests you have for your pet!”


“Amber was awsome!!!! Kept me up to date on how Marley was doing with messages and pictures. Marley seemed to have a great time. When I picked him up he was playing with Amber's dogs. I would definitely recommend Amber and I will definitely ask for her services again in the near future.”


“Loved Ja-Lin! Very personable & friendly! Zeus loved her & all his housemates. She sent pics & videos to keep me posted. Felt good to know he was well cared for. Will definitely use Jã-Lin again!”


“Ann is one of the nicest Rover sitters we have ever used. Our senior dog has some anxiety, and Ann was so wonderful, and patient, with him. She reached out with updates and questions to ensure she was able to do all she could to make him comfortable and feel more at home with her and her family. We are grateful for all of her help and support and highly recommend Ann.”


About: With 20 years of experience as a devoted pet owner, I know how much love and care our furry friends need. Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or quiet companionship, I’m ready to make your pet feel at home! As a stay-at-home mom who homeschooled my kids, I’m home most days and have a flexible schedule. If your pet is staying with me for daycare, I can let them out into my fenced backyard every 2 to 4 hours for potty breaks and playtime — and if they need more frequent attention, I’m happy to adjust to their needs. If I’m caring for your pet at your home, I can visit as often as needed to walk them, feed them, and make sure they’re comfortable. I’m also happy to clean litter boxes and provide any extra care your pet may need! If I’m caring for your dog at my home for daycare, they’ll have a safe and fun environment with access to my fenced backyard for play and potty breaks. I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, comfortable, and happy throughout their stay. If I’m visiting your home, I’m happy to walk your dog, take them out for potty breaks, feed them, and provide plenty of attention and care. I can also clean litter boxes and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

“Kassie was an amazing host! She took excellent care of our little Oscar and she gave constant updates! We felt very comfortable with Kassie's setup and we were happy that Oscar had a nice big fenced in area to run and play with friends. We would highly recommend Kassie to anyone else!!”


“Jenny and Carlos are the best sitters that I have encountered. They treated my babies as if their own, and quite frankly I think they were a little sad to leave. I will never have to worry about going out of town if they can keep them. Both are very friendly and upbeat. They really enjoy doing this. Thanks again Carlos and Jenny! Emilie Smith”

Central pet parents share their Rover experiences
Stephanie and her family took such good care of Juno and based on the contented look on Juno’s face in the daily photos we received I knew that Juno was having a great time. Stephanie made an extra trip to our house to meet Juno prior to boarding Juno. She responded quickly to our questions both before and during the time she took care of Juno. Stephanie created a sense of trust and responsibility that allowed us to have peace of mind and fully enjoy our trip. Thank you Stephanie!

Summer was great -- so reliable and responsive! We were visiting relatives for a football game at Clemson and we had our dog in tow. Summer watched our dog for the whole afternoon and was very understanding about the late evening pick up, given how long night football games can go. Summer sent photos and took great care of our guy, and he seemed really comfortable with her. Definitely would recommend her!
