“Luis did a great job looking after our two dogs. He was responsive and clear with communication, and was sensitive in meeting the needs of our dogs. We would happily use his services again.”
About: although I am new to rover, I have grown up in a house filled with pets, and am a current pet owner. I have always loved spending time with animals and would love to continue to do so in my spare time while helping others! I currently am a full time teacher but I take the summers off. During the school year I am available after school & weekends. During the summer I am available whenever! When taking care of a clients animal I will follow their personal instructions as well as my knowledges from owning pets. I think it’s very important to keeps animals in their routine and will do my best to accommodate each clients needs.
“My dog can be a bit difficult to walk and Armin did a great job dealing with it. He was reliable and responsive and I would definitely recommend him as a dog watcher.”
“I felt comfortable w Olivia the moment we met and I could tell my dogs agreed based on how they immediately attached themselves to her. Olivia did a great job w our boys over the weekend and did such a great job of keeping in touch. Would definitely use her again!”
“We were so fortunate that Daniela watched our pup and took excellent care of her and of our home while we were away for a trip. We placed our confidence in her and were not disappointed. Daniela communicated with us often, took our pup for longer walks than we requested, and was very considerate in our home. Daniela clearly cares a lot about animals and we couldn't ask for anything more in a sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to have their pup spoiled and well taken care of.”
About: I have been proud to be a shih tzu owner for 3 years with my family. I have also been pet sitting and walking since I was 12 I walk and feed my dog on a daily basis. I also play with him during my free time and weather permitting, take him to the dog park I currently live in an apartment while occasionally staying at my parents house. I make sure to give them the care they need and show them how much they are loved.
“Katie was the absolute best. She went above and beyond for her stay with my high energy pup, taking him on three 2+ mile walks over the course of her stay. She was extremely thorough and detail-oriented, executing each request and keeping our dog on schedule as much as possible. Sending a bunch of pictures and detailed recaps for each visit/walk. We would absolutely love to have Katie watch our dog again!”
“Linda was wonderful to work with and took amazing care of our home, 3 dogs and kitten. She was easy to communicate with. Linda was so sweet and took extra time and had great patience with our grumpy older dachshund. 5 stars!!!”
“Gabrielle was a GREAT house sitter! The animals were happy when I got home, she did everything and then some that I asked, and she left no footprint behind. I couldn’t be happier and I hope she will come house sit our pets again soon! Thank you so so much, I really appreciate you Gabrielle!”
“Bree was amazing with Ludo and Bowie! Super communicative and sent lots of pictures while we were away for a long weekend. Left the house spotless and even ran the laundry. The pups obviously enjoyed their time and perked up when I mentioned Bree's name. Thank you! Will absolutely book again.”
“Natalie was so awesome! She watched out large bully for a long weekend at our home and kept us updated the whole time by sending us pictures and texts throughout our trip. She also took great care of our home. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal
“We were in desperate need of someone we could trust to watch our anxious rescue pup, Piper, during our wedding weekend. Lana was extremely patient with both Piper, and my husband and I, even agreeing to meet us several times before the stay to get us all comfortable. She sent numerous pictures and updates, which calmed our nerves so we could fully enjoy our wedding. Thank you Lana for taking great care of Piper, we will definitely be contacting her again if we ever need someone to dog sit Piper in the future.”
About: I have had a dog since I was 8, one golden and one yorkie sadly both have passed. In between that I have whatched my family friends dog, friends dog and neighbors dog whenever needed for free since I enjoy playing with them. When my yorkie was getting older she became blind, deaf and developed dementia so it took a lot to take care of her, but I made sure to help easy the pain however I could and take my time with her before her passing. My afternoons are very open, I get home from work around 4 sometimes earlier, I’m used to walking my dogs and the dogs I sit for an hour if need be. I am always off on weekends and very flexible. I give them my full 100% attention and make sure I spend as much if not more time than I said I would with them. If someone says if I can watch their dog for an hour or 2, I’d stay for the 2 hours and send pictures to the owner about how they are doing.
About: I work from home 5 days a week which will allow your dog to get constant attention and love. Having cared for my own dog I understand how difficult it is to leave with someone else. I currently work from home 5 days a week and will be able to attend to your dogs needs. I can take them out for plenty of potty breaks. Since I work from home your dog will get plenty of attention. I live in a very dog friendly community that is great for walks. I will always keep your dog on a secure leash whenever outdoors.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs (and nannying) for 4 years. I started out with the family I nanny for, then my boy friend and I’s dog, and now I help out with family and friends as needed. I truly feel connected to each and every dog I meet, and bond with them very easily. They bring me so much joy! Whether your dog is shy and mellow, or hyper and adventurous, I’d love to hang out and care for them! I am currently getting my masters degree online, nannying part-time and working part-time. I live at home in Chatham, and my schedule is very flexible. I have a car and can drive to surrounding towns. I have experience with over night house sitting, dog sitting, and babysitting. I am trusted by the families who need me, and am always asked to come back. I care with empathy, respect, and integrity. When walking, I am conscious of pedestrians and make sure all parties are safe.
About: Every dog is a personality, a story, a world of their own. I’m a rescue-trained pro with 20+ years caring for pups with complex needs. From reactive dogs and aggressive dogs to seniors and those with disabilities, medical needs, or physical challenges. I customize care for every dog, from fresh meals and supplements to training and behavior support. I can even take your furbaby to the vet and provide a full summary and recording if you are unable due to work or other commitments. I'm your perfect pet concierge. Trusted, expert care for dogs. Peace of mind for parents. I'm currently working on getting certified to work with neurodiverse children by taking online courses. My schedule is completely my own and allows me to be flexible based on your needs and timeline. I do both in home care and out of home care. I have a very large network of experts in pet care due to my connections in rescue, training and veterinary. My home is a single floor rancher with a finished basement for dogs who may need decompression or prefer to have their own space. We also have a 1/2 acre backyard. It is not fenced but dogs are not left outside unattended anyway. We have multiple in ground leaders if they like to sunbathe. We are right next to the woods so pack walks and a nearby dog run are great for getting the zoomies out with ball time or exploring the smells and sounds. In your home, I can adapt to whatever is needed.

Katie was the absolute best. She went above and beyond for her stay with my high energy pup, taking him on three 2+ mile walks over the course of her stay. She was extremely thorough and detail-oriented, executing each request and keeping our dog on schedule as much as possible. Sending a bunch of pictures and detailed recaps for each visit/walk. We would absolutely love to have Katie watch our dog again!
Catherine was absolutely excellent! My dog needed extra care for a foot injury including antibiotics, pain meds, and eye drops since he’s blind and she handled everything perfectly. She was attentive, careful, and kept me updated throughout. I felt at ease knowing Joey was being cared for well.
Our dog can be slow to warm up to new people and is often a bit withdrawn when we leave her with sitters, but she took to Jodi right away. We only had Jodi for a short weekend. She took Piper for 2 walks, despite the brewing nor'easter, and Piper had fun with her.
MaKenna took excellent care of our furry family while we were out of the country. She was great at communicating and providing photos. She was thorough with providing our Daisy her meds and getting to know Daisy, even though she's a bit shy. And Winnie and MaKenna seemed to click right away. It was clear by the photos that both animals had a great time!
We couldn’t be more grateful to Quinn for the incredible care she gave our older dog while we were away. From the start, she was kind, attentive, and truly caring — it was clear she treated our dog like her own. Quinn took the time to understand her needs and routine, and her thoughtful updates gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. Our dog is older and Quinn handled everything with such patience and love. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog — a true testament to the wonderful care Riley received. Highly recommend Quinn to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter!
Alissa was absolutely wonderful! Prior to our vacation she came over to meet our dog, Nola, for a meet and greet so Nola could get used to her. She even came early the day we left so that Nola had someone home with her when we left. During our vacation Alissa sent tons of photos and updates. We were even shocked to see photos of Nola laying with her as she normally hides upstairs when we aren’t there. The house was left immaculate and clean. She truly was so easy to work with and took amazing care of our dog. We highly recommend her and are looking forward to using her again.
