1. Jazz B.

“Jazz was so very awesome. This was the first time we used Rover and she was a definite awesome choice for our cats. We had a video call before to discuss everything and make sure we both knew what was to be expected. I got a text and photos and video of her visit with the cats, so my mind was more at ease. We will definitely recommend and rebook Jazz 😊”

“Paris was an awesome care taker of my fur babies! She is very thorough in her communication with us about her time with our babies. We enjoyed and loved all the pictures she took of them while in her care. We highly recommend Paris to dog sit. She is trustworthy and my babies love her!”

About: I'm very patient and experienced with fur babies of all sizes and kinds. I can handle watching dogs twice my size. I'm understanding that every fur baby is different and you have to treat them accordingly so they can become comfortable around you. I understand it can be difficult trusting people to care for them and will ensure they are safe and receive best care and time with me. I will treat your fur baby as I would want someone to treat mine. l work from home and do online schooling due to this my schedule is flexible. I’m available to watch your fur baby for entire duration if needed. I take them out for a walk as often as needed . If they take medicine I don’t mind administering it to your fur baby. I will stimulate their mind with different thinking games and treats. They will learn different commands if they don't know them already. I even take them to vet visit if needed throughout the duration of time I’m watching them.

10. Raquel F.
About: I have been in the dog sitting/walking business for several years on 'WAG!' prior to starting my journey here on ‘Rover’. I have a 3 yr old Maltese/chihuahua mix who is full of energy and ready to make new friends, big or small! I’ve also previously boarded a cat for an entire summer, so I have a lot of experience with BOTH! I am currently working remote, so i'll have plenty of time to play, walk and tend to your dogs needs. I can accommodate any feeding schedule or special arrangements upon request. I live in a very safe, dog friendly neighborhood. There is also a park nearby in walking distance. My home is clean and the grass is well kept.




11. KIANA I.


“Kiana was great in taken care my Autumn. With below 0 degrees temps, Kiana was still able to make it to the home visits scheduled for the day. She is a committed dog sitter who is determined to do the the best in taking care of your dog. DJ”




12. Bayli G.


“Bayli did a wonderful job with my pups!! We had her come for several home visits a day to care for my senior dogs. She was fantastic about sending me great photos of them and giving them lots of love. I was nervous to leave them as one of my dogs has an illness that requires some special care. Bayli took such good care of her that I was able to be away from home without being constantly worried. I would use her again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend her services, I was very impressed!”


13. Rachael R.
About: I have been caring for animals most of my life. As both an animal lover and as a handler. I became a professional pet sitter after being recommended by colleagues that evolved into now clients who travel often. My gift is that I understand the unique emotional life of the animals which means maintaining a peaceful environment so they feel safe while away from you. I have administered medications as well as helped injured animals and pet sat geriatric pets up to the age of 17 as well. I am a writer and a fitness professional, I love to cook and be outdoors. My schedule is flexible and pet care is second nature for me. I do both in home and out of home pet care depending on the need and longevity of the sit. Prefer to house them myself because of the yard and dog friendly environment. I have experience with extended stays —30 plus days as well.


14. Erica S.

“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”


15. Victoria A.
“Tori is an amazing person. I have known her personally for many years but she started taking care of my fur babies about two years ago. They love her. I have a very skittish dog that will not warm up to anyone and Tori can get him to go outside for her, snuggle with her, etc. She is very loving, LOVES animals and will make sure your babies are taken care of. I know my animals can cause messes (I have 4 of them) and I always come back to my house clean and no sign of any messes (which I know she is covering for them). :) I would highly recommend Tori to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She will take care of them as if they are her own.”


16. Sydney D.
“I trusted Sydney with my Bestfriend Bella. Not only did she treat her with kindness and respect but she went he extra mile to make sure Bella was comfortable with her before even taking her for the walk. Bella and Sydney are still friend till this day🎈”

About: I have two German Shepherds of my own I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15. As a dedicated dog lover with many years of experience, I understand that your pet is more than just an animal, they’re a beloved member of your family. I offer unique blend of care, qualifications and extras to ensure your furry friend will have a great time as you do while you’re away. I believe every dog is special, with their own quirks and needs. That’s why I offer tailored experiences based on your dog’s personality, age, and energy level. I provide the perfect balance of playtime, cuddles, and rest. I'm currently working part time and have plenty of time to care for your fur babies, play with them and meet all of their needs. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs. If at your home I will hang out, play and give your pups all the attention. If you need me to crate your dog or give medication I can do that too.
