“Michelle was by FAR the best sitter we’ve ever had. The updates throughout the day made us feel so secure being away and we came home to a very happy pup. 10 stars!!!”
“Sarah was amazing. So intuitive with our nervous dog, who was immediately comfortable with her. Reliable, responsive, kind, caring and very clean. We feel so grateful to have found her! Thank you for taking such good care of our pup.”
“Christine stayed at my house and watched my dog, Duke, for 16 days. This was the longest I have ever been away from Duke so needless to say, I was nervous. Christine took such great care of Duke and our house while we were gone. We got plenty of updates, pictures, and videos which gave us peace of mind. While we were on vacation, Christine made Duke feel like he was on vacation too! Plenty of walks, adventures, cuddles, and play. I can’t thank Christine enough for taking such great care of Duke and our house while we were away. I highly recommend Christine.”
“My dog Lyla loved having Bri stay at the house for three nights. Bri was great! She provided updates twice a day with photos to let me know how Lyla was doing. Lyla is easygoing in the home but can be a little wild and reactive on walks. Bri followed all instructions to a tee. I will definitely be reaching out to Bri again the next time I book travel. Thanks Bri!”
“Grace was wonderful with my dog and my house while we were away for a few days. She was attentive to pet and house needs, communicative, and extremely easy to work with. We will definitely hire her again!”
“Jayla stayed overnight with our dog multiple nights and took him out multiple times a day while we were away. We greatly appreciated the updates including photos that she sent us!”
“Julia helped us out last minute when we couldn't find anyone to stay with our dogs overnight. She was great! She communicated with us and took good care of our 2 goldendoodles. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Maya is truly amazing, so loving and patience with my spoiled boy Armani. She is the only pet/home sitter I will be using for the future. She will take care of your home and pet as if they are her own. I highly recommend Maya if you are looking for a reliable person!”
“Anna took great care of our pups, kitty, and home while we were away. We've used Anna for dog walking before her weeklong stay in our home, and the animals love her. Anna is very gentle and kind, and that reflects when we've seen her interact with all of our animals. She made sure to stay in communication with us and send great pictures to make us feel at ease. We plan on continuing to hire Anna for dog walking or future pet sitting.”
“Emily was awesome. I can't say enough good things about her. My dogs can be a handful. She took care of it no problem. Super happy with her. Will definitely use her again!”
“Nicola is the best of the best. Above and beyond help and care for my dogs. Thank you again and again for taking care of my fur babies for me and being helpful as well communicative. See you next time!”
About: I’m a travel nurse without any animals who wants to love on yours! I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 3 years old, up to 3 dogs at a time. I trained my puppy while I was in high school and have loved on dogs through their old age as well. I worked at a doggy daycare for a few summers while I was in college. I work 10 hours shift during the week, however I am free in the evenings after 6pm and have one free day during the week. I am always available on the weekends. I understand that all dogs have their own routine, needs & quirks! I am very thorough with the care I provide and will love them like my own! I have experience in dogs with medical needs such as giving them oral meds & injections as well as post-op recovery care.
“Camilla did a 5 night stay at our house with our pups and was amazing! She continuously kept us updated and sent many photos to keep us at ease while we were on vacation! I would highly recommend booking :)”
“Kaitlyn was great with my girls and house! Everything was just the way I left it. 5 nights 6 days. She sent updates and pictures everyday. I have a reactive dog and a 14.5 year old diabetic cat. She loved/s them and kept them happy, safe, and comfortable while I was away. Thank you Kaitlyn!”
“I felt very relieved knowing I could trust Savannah with my cats. She did a great job taking care of them. I received pictures and updates daily. I would recommend Savannah to anyone who has special fur babies. The next time I plan a vacation, Savannah will be one of the first people I'll call.”
“Cailey was super communicative, followed instructions carefully, and asked thoughtful questions when needed. She provided great updates throughout, and my dog seemed genuinely happy in her care. Overall, she was a wonderful sitter, and I would absolutely book her again.”
Charles pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ana was fantastic! She was communicative, thoughtful, and sent lots of updates and adorable photos while we were away. She made sure our dog got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and it was obvious how much she genuinely enjoyed spending time with her. We came home to a happy pup and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend and would book again in a heartbeat!
What can I say. My wife & I trusted Katherine with our home and our beloved wiener dog Wilson for 15 days while we traveled. She contacted us daily with pictures and updates, took great care of both Wilson and our home. She provided excellent care for our dog, she even took him to get his nails trimmed because we forgot before we left. She’s a wonderful woman with great knowledge of her profession. We have all ready rebooked her for another trip later this year! Katherine will provide you with what you really need while you are away, Peace of mind. I’ve never been more comfortable with anyone taking care of our home and pet the I was with Katherine.
Jennifer was great with our dog and cat! She stayed the weekend while we were away, and we knew everything was going well based on the amount of communication (and photos), which was very much appreciated! We would happily recommend Jennifer to others, and will surely use her again!
JL was absolutely wonderful! We recently used him for dog sitting, and he made the entire experience stress-free from start to finish. His communication was fantastic, and we really appreciated the daily updates and pictures while we were away. JL took great care of our dogs! Knowing they were in such good hands allowed us to truly unwind and enjoy our vacation without worrying. We would definitely recommend JL and would happily book with him again!
Jules was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She sent thoughtful daily photo updates, which I genuinely looked forward to each day and really appreciated. It was clear my cat was comfortable, well cared for, and getting lots of attention. She was also incredibly respectful of my home, everything was clean, organized, and exactly as I left it when I returned. Jules was reliable, communicative, kind, and clearly someone who truly cares about animals. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a warm, dependable pet sitter!
Sophie was once again an amazing sitter for Pumpkin! She is very responsive and sends us pictures and updates throughout the week which we always appreciate. She seems to understand Pumpkin and his personality very well and we always come home to a well taken care of and happy dog!
Jonathan was communicative and proactive over the course of the week we were away. He was very attuned to our dog’s needs, including taking extra time and thought to prepare her special food when her appetite was low. Our house was in great shape when we returned. We are grateful for his care and consideration!
Katie did a phenomenal job with my cat Gracie! She was communicative, kind, and attentive to detail - and I had a lot of confidence leaving my cat in her care. I came home to a happy cat and a house just like I left it (emptied trash, fresh sheets, clean dishes) - would happily use her services again!
Christine was our first ever in-house dog sitter for our two pups and we couldn't have been more pleased. She communicated with us promptly and regularly while we were away, and took great care of our ladies (and house). I would highly recommend her for any of the services she offers.
Lisa was great to work with. One of my dogs is protective of the house/yard and Lisa handled the situation well. Both of my dogs warmed up to her quickly and the updates she provided throughout the stay were comforting. I will definitely contact her again if I need a pet sitter.
Maricela was fantastic! Lucy loved all the attention and I was grateful for the help with not only my baby but my plant babies as well. We left for a weekend trip our house was spotless and our Lucy was happy. Maricela sent photos and updates everyday- since it was a busy weekend it was reassuring to know she was well taken care of. So grateful
