1. Christopher S.

“Christopher was absolutely amazing with Ella! He was very communicative, followed our requests, and was able to work with our dog's reactiveness and hesitation. I highly recommend Christopher for any pet-sitting needs and will definitely be using him again in the future.”


2. Lenetta P.

“Lenetta is very caring and wonderful with cats. We came home from vacation to see two very happy and relaxed kitties because of her wonderful care. Lenetta is prompt and reliable and I highly recommend her services.”


3. Jamie S.

“Jamie was wonderful! She was super communicative from the beginning and very flexible with our schedule. We had to make several changes to the booking time leading up to the day and Jamie was super patient with us. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day which I really appreciated and gave me a bit of peace especially with my 8 week old puppy. Thank you so much Jamie!”


4. Katrina K.

“Katrina does an amazing job with my dogs! One of them is a little weary of people and I can tell that he loves her and that both of my dogs are very well cared for. She goes the extra mile to get to know them and makes sure that they feel comfortable!”


5. Rachael M.

“This was my very first time using Rover or pet sitting services. I was nervous and a little stressed, but I couldn't have asked for better care or attention for my fur baby than what Rachael did! She is so friendly and compassionate toward animals and people! It reflects in the report card report and pictures I received during her visits with Earnestine. I would definitely recommend Rachael if you have to go away but want your pet cared for and loved in the same way they would be if you were home with them! Many thanks again!”


6. Stephanie O.

“Stephanie is top notch! She cares VERY much for animals which is obvious from minute she meets them throughout time she pet sits. She kept us updated via text (our request). Even brought in our flag when bracket broke had on garage wall outside. We will DEFINITELY keep using Stephanie and highly recommend for pet care 🐾”


7. Clara I.

“Clara is friendly and reliable. She quickly bonded with our dog and made us feel comfortable leaving her at home while we traveled out of town. We highly recommend Clara to anyone looking for a home pet sitter.”


8. Ann P.
“We couldn't have been happier with Ann caring for our 4 year old cat Cleo. She sat for us 2 times now and every time we get home she left everything perfectly spotless and Cleo is happy and relaxed. Our first petsit with her was during a winterstorm and she didn't have internet the first day and the next day she didn't have electricity. She didn't once complain and handled everything very well and professional. Would recommend her anytime. Whenever I need someone I contact her first to see if she's available.”


9. Kathleen S.
“Kathleen is an excellent communicator & very reliable! She's the best cat sitter we've found on Rover. Highly recommend & will request booking with her again.”


10. Susan W.
“I have had Susan take care of my dog and two cats many times when I’ve had to go out of town. She is always kind, gentle, and loving to them. She cares for them as if they were her own. She is very trustworthy to take care of all your pets needs.”


11. Gabriel C.
“Gabriel loves animals and is great with dogs and cats!! He is very loving and responsible for their care. He loves throwing the frisbee and playing catch with them and taking walks and jogs with dogs. You can be sure he will take great care of your animals! Sincerely, Chris”




12. Dawn C.

“Dawn came at the very last minute and was very understandable. Sent lots of pictures which made me feel better that my babies were in good hands! Thank you so much!”


13. Sara M.
About: I love animals and have owned birds (zebra finches), ferrets, a dog (Labrador Retriever) and a cat (Domestic Shorthair). During my days in the College of Central Florida, I worked with the two horses they had there: a Thoroughbred named Ellie and an Arabian named Dolly. After graduating with my certificate in equine science, I volunteered at a cat shelter where I swept the floor, cleaned the litter boxes, and socialized the cats. Currently planning on owning a snake (most likely a red-tailed boa) one day. I am a currently unemployed night owl who is free to watch over any and all pets daily day or night throughout the entire week. I make sure that no pet gets into places they don't belong, eat things they shouldn’t eat, or go outside without a leash or harness.


14. Vanessa S.
About: I care about them as if they were my own. They don't live as long as humans so they deserve the best life we can give them while they're here. The only experience and knowledge I have of dogs and cats is what I've learned on my own with my pets throughout my life. I don't have a job so my availability is mostly flexible. Looking for extra money, I don't have any special skills I just need extra money and love dogs and cats. The only thing I can think of that puts me apart from other services/sitters is the desire and drive to complete any task, besides my love for pets, I have a great work ethic that helps me be motivated to ensure every step was taken in completing a task. Money is also a great motivator but isn't the saying "do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life", that's a great interpretation of my work ethic. I'm currently unemployed. I usually have availability on Saturday, and Sunday. If I am available during the weekend I will update my schedule, otherwise that's my availability. I cannot offer boarding in my home because I live in an apartment where each pet in my home needs to be paid for and accounted for by my apartment management but I will treat your animals and living spaces like royalty and respect all responsibilities asked of me while I care for your pets in your home.


15. Heather A.

“Heather did an incredible job with my girls! I have one pretty nervous cat. She was patient enough with Nami that she was already friends by the end of the second day! Offered to groom them while I was away and had the correct equipment to make it easy. Would recommend her to anyone.”


16. Rebecca S.

“Rebecca took great care of my kitties, going above and beyond making them feel safe and loved. I could enjoy my time away knowing they are spoiled and pampered. I will definitely ask her to watch my babies again. Thank you Rebecca!!!”


17. Julie R.

“Julie took my drop in request last minute even though she usually likes a few days in advance for certain bookings without hesitation. She was very receptive and professional when it came to the whole process. We didn't do a meet and greet due to time constraint but she trusted the info given was enough to follow through anyways and didn't steer her away from taking care of my dogs needs. Julie went above and beyond by sending pictures and keeping the status of all requests updated right on time. Family and I will be using Julie as much as she'll let us in the future, I recommend you do too! Ellie girl said she was happy to have met a new friend! Thank you!”


18. Lauren V.
About: I am the ultimate dog lover! Dogs are not just a pet, they are family and I intend to treat your fur babies the same. I am responsible and reliable and will take excellent care of your pets. I am active and love going on dog walks or even runs if necessary. I have been taking care of my own dogs for over 10 years now, as well as caring for other people's pets for over 6 years, from puppies to large dogs. My previous jobs include daily walking, and sitting in my own home as well as the owners. I will not let you or your dog down and will provide the best care possible, all while being energetic, loving, and as loyal as your precious pup(s). I currently am staying at home, so I am available almost daily! I do have children, but they are not home during the day unless there is an emergency. I have a fenced in yard. I do have 2 dogs who enjoy playing with other dogs. However, if your dog needs crated, I also have medium-XL sized crates if need be. If I am in your home, I will treat everything I come in contact with with respect and care as if it were my own.


19. Cheyenne R.

“Cheyenne was wonderful! Very responsible. Followed all our direction and the dogs love her! I totally use her again!”


20. Erin H.
“Erin is a hard worker. She has tons of patience. Dogs love her; they migrate to her. They listen to her when she asked them to do things - like sit, stay, come. This happens without the dogs even knowing her. They know she is a caring, gentle person who loves them.”
