I have nothing but WONDERFUL things to say about Carla! She took amazing care of our dog Bailey and she made sure to send me updates and photos throughout the sitting, which really helped to put me and my husband at ease. She also followed all of our instructions and we came home to a very happy dog! I would recommend Carla to anyone who needs someone to look after their pet!

This is our second time working with Diana and we can’t recommend her enough. Our old dogs can be pretty high maintenance, but she does a great job caring for them when we’re away. Thank you!

Tina was an amazing overnight dog sitter at our house! My dog is a rescue and is very nervous around other animals, so we have to have the dog sitter stay at our house when we can't take our dog with us. However, she warmed right up to Tina and they had a great time together. It was a 4 day overnight job. Tina was wonderful about sending updates and pictures, and she was detail oriented in giving medications. Will definitely use her again!

About: Ive grown up with dogs all my life and always enjoyed spending time with them when I had the chance. Now that I’m older I help friends, family, neighbors and everyone with their pets- be it checking in, feeding, bathing, house sitting, walking, giving medication, or just keeping them company so you can enjoy yourself with peace of mind! I am available most of the weekday especially in the mornings. On the weekends I’m available more often in the afternoons. I’m very flexible and can accommodate to you! I really try to get to know each pet in order to know what they like, what they don't, and their usual routine. This helps me give them the best care possible, so they feel safe and happy, whether I'm just popping in or looking after them for longer!

This was my first time using Rover and I was so fortunate that Jovelle was our dog sitter! She was so prompt responding to my messages and was so patient with my many questions. She came over for a Meet and Greet and I instantly knew she’d be great for our lab, Stewart! During our time away, Jovelle sent daily updates along with many pictures of Stewart enjoying his walks, playtime, treat time and he always had a smile on his face. She was very communicative which made me feel comfortable and I knew Stewart was in good hands. I can’t recommend Jovelle enough, she was wonderful!!

About: I’ve spent years caring for others through nannying and customer service roles, so being dependable, attentive, and patient comes naturally to me. I have experience working at a veterinary hospital as a receptionist and have done pet sitting for a few years now. I truly love being around animals and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy staying active with walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of companionship and affection. I'm currently working part time so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I'm hoping to mainly focus on building my pet sitting business. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while making sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for some pets, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.

Monica is amazing! She took such good care of our pups; specialized walks depending on energy levels, park play, spent time giving attention and love to them while being on top of all medicines or ointments. My dogs absolutely adore her and I will definitely book again and again with her! 🐶🩷🐶🩷

About: I have hands-on experience taking care of both cats and dogs. I looked after five cats for two months, making sure they were well-fed, clean, and comfortable. I’ve also cared for a Spitz dog, giving me experience with daily walks, playtime, and basic care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Also I’m working as groomer helper. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I can adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they receive consistent attention throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep the home clean, and pay close attention to the pet’s behavior and needs. I prioritize gentle handling, secure surroundings, and constant supervision to ensure every pet is happy and well-cared for.

Leaving our dogs at home is always the hardest part of traveling, and we naturally worry about them. We’re so glad we found Efraim and the dogs absolutely love him! He did a wonderful job taking care of them while we were away. He was also very patient with our senior dog, who can be quite picky and slow with food, which we truly appreciated. We loved the updates he sent, gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much, Efraim! We truly appreciate the care you gave our dogs and will definitely book with him again in the future.

She watched him for two back-to-back days, communicated clearly throughout, and was respectful of our home and schedule. We’d happily book her again — thank you, Mia!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and have been trusted with ongoing pet sitting responsibilities. I treat every pet with the same care, routine, and attention they receive from their owners. I also help reinforce training, keeping consistency with commands and good habits while you’re away. I work part-time and remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, and be present throughout the day to ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I provide care in my client’s home to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away.

Caleigh was an absolute gem to work with! She was highly communicative, timely, and went really far above and beyond the call of duty for our family. Caleigh handled an emergency situation that arose very gracefully and with tons of empathy, and genuinely cared about the happiness and well-being of all of our three pets. She is trustworthy and professional, cannot ask for better!

Virgina is very sweet and communicated well with us throughout her three week stay at our home with our dog Louie. She took great care of our beloved dog and home. He has meds and specific diet which she followed at our request. She also took him on lots of walks. The home was clean and tidy before we arrived home. I definitely will use her services again and recommend her for any help you may need.

This was our first time using Rover and our first time ever having a house sitter, so we were understandably a bit nervous going into it. Lexx immediately put us at ease. She stayed with our cat Jax for four nights and was fantastic throughout the entire stay. Her communication was excellent — she kept us updated regularly and shared thoughtful updates that made it easy to relax while we were away. It was clear Jax was well cared for and comfortable with her. When we returned home, everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as we left it, which we really appreciated. Lexx was respectful of our home and very dependable. Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely book Lexx again. We’re really glad we found her for our first Rover experience.
