“Amy was amazing! She took incredible care of my 4 little ones, including my special needs dog, while I traveled for a long, stressful weekend. She gave regular updates and clearly cared for my pets like her own. I couldn’t be happier!”


“She was patient with my small pomchi. My dog is not very friendly but she just needs time to adjust. Patricia was very patient and waited until they became friends”


“Amanda was so incredible! She was responsive and took the best care of our pups! Amanda was kind and helped take care of the house while we were away by bringing in the mail without asking and also taking the time to ensure things were left better than she found it. THANK YOU, Amanda! It is such a joy to work with you and I cannot recommend her enough! I 100% will book with Amanda again! (:”



“This was our first time using Mariah for a weeklong trip and we’re happy with her care! She met our dogs twice before she came to house sit them, and gave us updates throughout our trip. When we returned, our dogs were happy and our house clean. Thanks Mariah!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, donkeys, goats, chickens, ferrets, hamsters, etc. I’m used to being in households with multiple animals. I have a Boston Terrier that I consistently walk. I don’t currently have a job I’m full time pet sitting. However I do take jobs outside of rover and have occasional plans or trips but I’m very flexible. I have a Boston Terrier who I let out on a leash and take on walks around the neighborhood. He typically sleeps in his crate.

“Carley was AMAZING! Sent me so many photos/videos and updates throughout the weekend. We had a very happy boy when we got back home. Will definitely be booking Carley next time we need a sitter!”



“This was our first time using Rover and the first time leaving our anxious pup alone overnight. I could tell from the meet and greet that Rini had the right demeanor and patience. She kept in contact while we were away which helped put our minds at ease.”


“She was so nice and kind! I really appreciate her service and loving on my girls. She took really good care of them and she sent me pictures of them cuddling🥰 I would recommend her to anyone and will be booking her again in the future!”


About: While I’m newer to professional pet care (3 years), I’ve spent lots of time walking and caring for dogs for friends and family. I’m dependable, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe and happy. I’m especially good with routines and following care instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime. I may be newer, but I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving every dog the attention and love they deserve. As a part-time worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have consisted time frames to dedicate to pet care. I enjoy spending time with animals, and taking care of pets fits naturally into my routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s a walk before work or a check-in visit after, I always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on time, regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I also keep the space tidy and provide updates to the owner for peace of mind, when needed. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a safe, cozy environment and stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. Whether in their home or mine, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I would give my own.

About: My family has adopted/rescued many dogs throughout my life, which has also given me experience to handle any dog regardless of their size or personality. Whether it is a small dog or a big dog I can care for them regardless of their needs. I am free 24/7 throughout the summer to help care for your pets. Whether that is one day, one night, or several days, I can be relied on to care for your pets while you are away. Due to my pet care experience, I am extremely capable of following directions. On top of that, I am used to working with animals in different environments, and can care for your animal/s precisely as requested.

About: I grew up in a dog family, always had a dog in the household. I’ve had my own dog for 4 years now and would love the opportunity to help other dog parents with their fur babies. I’m able to handle dogs of any size (if being a powerlifter shows how strong I am). NOTE: As we get to the hotter months, I will not walk a dog on pavement without shoes on them if the outside temperature is 85 degrees or above!! I work hybrid so I am able to pop out during the day for walks or play time. When I’m not working I’m at the gym, but my schedule is flexible. I will not be able to accommodate pets in my home at this time as I live in a small apartment with my dog. While in my client’s home I will make the pet feel as comfortable as possible and not disturb the environment that my clients have set up.

About: I prioritize understanding animal behavior, which allows me to quickly pick up on your pet's needs. I know how crucial health is for pets, so I ensure they get plenty of exercise. With experience caring for both young and senior pets, I provide tailored care that includes training and gentle handling. As well as being accommodating to your special requests. Your furry friend will feel safe and loved in my care! I'm currently a student at SCF, and while my hours can fluctuate, I always prioritize my schoolwork and taking care of pets. You can count on me to be accommodating. I offer a safe, comfortable environment with a structured routine for feeding, exercise, and play, plus regular updates to owners. I also accommodate to owners special requests to make the experience more comfortable.

“We are extremely pleased with Hayley’s professionalism and the care she provided for our fur babies. We’d be more than happy to entrust our boys with her anytime.”


“Alex was fantastic! We had never used Rover before and were in a bind. We have 3, 1.5 year old dogs and a cat so it is a little involved and she handled it so well. She came and met them before we left, and sent photos and updates while we were gone. She stayed at the house, and it was cleaner than when we left! Such a good experience and we wound 100% recommend her!”


About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats before. I also have plenty experience taking care of bigger animals as I used to be a working student at the barn I boarded my horses at from when I was 10-15. I’ve been trusted by many friends and family to take care of their furry friends including but not limited to horses, bunnies, fish, dogs, and cats. I have experience with grooming dogs as well due to having a golden doodle of my own. If you have any more questions feel free to ask! I currently work a Part-time job that schedules me 2-3 times a week so I have a lot of availability to make house visits or spend the day as much as you would need me to! I also love to go on walks and take hikes so if I am looking after an Active dog it is no problem! If your dog likes to play with other dogs I have a fenced in yard and two other dogs of mine who are very friendly. I am very neat and organized so the chance of your animal eating something or getting into something they’re not supposed to is very slim.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both energetic and senior pets, I bring a calm, confident presence to every pet I care for. I’m especially skilled at reading animal body language, deescalating tense situations, and creating a peaceful environment where pets feel safe. I’m gentle, patient, and genuinely love pets and forming bonds with them on their terms. I have a flexible, open schedule, with plenty of time to fit your pet-care needs into my day. I am available to house-sit Sunday through Wednesday nights. I am available to walk pets or stop by at your house up to twice a day for an hour each visit. I’m experienced with pets that require special care and routines. My own cats are on a vet-recommended feeding schedule, so I’m used to preparing multiple small meals throughout the day and keeping a close eye on dietary needs. I scoop litter boxes twice daily to ensure a clean and comfortable environment. When dog sitting, I make sure dogs get at least two walks per day—each lasting a minimum of 15 minutes—and always clean up after them. I also take time to tidy up pet hair and keep your home as neat as you left it. Your pet’s health, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities!

“Very awesome sitter. Dogs liked her a lot. Would definitely use her in the future.”


About: I have had dogs all of my life and plan to work with them in my future career. From Dachshunds and Poodles to Labs, Newfies and Bullmastiffs, I have extensive experience caring for both my own and others pets. I absolutely love animals and cannot wait to meet your fur baby! I'm currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur baby! I'm available everyday and only work 4-9pm when scheduled. I will always ensure that your home and pet are secure at all times as well as following any and all instructions left for me. I want to make sure that both you and your pet are as happy as possible! I know how difficult and stressful it can be to leave your fur baby so I want to make sure you know that you can trust me to take care of them like my own (although they may be a little spoiled 😂)!

About: Hey, thanks for being here. My name is Joshua Guzman and I’ve owned animals since I was six. From dogs, guinea pigs, and now two ferrets. There are some animals that were not technically mine, but I thought of them as my own. Them being other dogs, cats, and fish. I love animals and I would love to care for yours! I’m currently working full-time, but I can take care of your pets after work or on the weekends. I’m available from 6 to 9 on weekdays and from 10 to 7 on weekends. I’ll make sure to make that your animal is fed and has plenty of playtime and make sure to communicate with you to ensure safety.

Justin L.
“Justin is a fabulous pet sitter! He has taken care of our cats for the past couple of years when we go on a week long vacation. Last year, we had 2 cats, both of which required medication. The cats can sometimes be stubborn about taking their meds but Justin was patient with them and got them to take them. Sadly, one of our cats passed away leaving the other cat depressed. Justin stayed at the house and spent extra time with him. He sent pictures of my cat happy and content. I highly recommend Justin if you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter.”

Angelika was a great sitter. Lots of updates and extras. We always knew our pup was having a Great time. I will booking her again next time we are out of town.

Karenna was wonderful with Lucy! She communicated with us daily and texted photos of Lucy several times a day. It was the first time in Obama years that we had ever left Lucy. We were gone for four days. When we came home, Lucy was fine and our home was as spotless as when we left it. I would highly recommend Karenna to watch your pets overnight.

Absolutely amazing dog sitter! Dependable, thoughtful, and so loving with both our puppy and older dog. She kept us updated with photos and messages, followed all instructions perfectly, and gave each dog the individual attention they needed. We came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pups! Highly recommend!

Emma was wonderful! Our collie fell in love with her instantly. She was very kind gentle and accommodated our special requests, she even came over to get acquainted the precious day. She is very gifted! We highly recommend her!

Connor took great care of everything while we were away. He sent lots of updates and pictures of happy pups. We will definitely ask Connor back the next time we travel.

Rachel was wonderful with our two big babies. She sent updates and pictures each day and they both loved cuddling with her. We highly recommend Rachel and will use her in the future.

Heather provided great care for our pup! She was easy to contact, showed up on time, and followed our directions for feeding, treats, and exercise. We enjoyed the pictures she sent several times a day! Our pup, Lizzie, was relaxed and happy when we returned.

I know Gus was very happy to have Julian stay with him again. This time I was able to add on services as Julian gave Gus a bath. Julian keeps in touch, and leaves my house nice and neat as well. We were lucky he was available for the holiday!

Maya did a great job of taking care of our cat and dog! We were gone for just over a week, and it was wonderful to have someone so reliable house and pet sitting. Maya’s very responsive, and left the house in perfect condition. Highly recommend!!

Allyson was great and spent a week with the dogs. Our dogs LOVE her, and she is very attentive and loving to our boys. She is prompt, flexible, friendly, has excellent communication and is overall a delight. I STRONGLY recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to walk or care for their fur babies.
