“The best! This was Zeus’s first overnight without me, and he was so well taken care of, and so happy to see me when I got home! Dustin even took him for a long walk in the morning before I arrived! Can’t wait to have him back! One million stars ⭐️”
“Carlos sat for our beloved dog Luna for 3 weeks while we were in Europe. It was such a relief to know that she was well cared for and loved while on our extended journey. We came home to a happy dog and though I told him not to worry about cleaning, the house was immaculate. Carlos kept us informed with pictures and responded promptly to all my messages when away. Carlos is a responsible, caring young man who I will definitely have sit for Luna again!!! I am recommending him to all my friends!”
“Natalie was awesome! Lots of pics and texts which made me more comfortable. Both pets did great. Roxy was anxious before but by the time I got home, she was calm and wasn’t clingy like she can be. Roxy is a great communicator as Natalie can attest to so I will listen to my boss. Roxy, and always book Natalie.”
“Melinda communicated very well and kept us constantly updated on how our hounds were doing. She went above and beyond by watering some new plants my wife purchased just before our trip. We returned to a nice house and a bunch of happy hounds. We highly recommend Melinda.”
“Philip did a great job taking care of our dog Santino. He was extremely receptive to the information we had to share with him, and better yet, asked clarifying questions to ensure all of us were on the same page. His affection towards and knowledge about dogs is as clear as day. We felt extremely confident leaving Santino under his care. He communicated frequently with us while we were away and he kept us posted with photos and video updates. Overall, his service and care for our dog Santino was second to none, and Santino made sure we knew that. Santino just lit up like a Christmas tree when he saw Philip and that’s what sealed the deal for us. Spend some time meeting with Philip if you have dog care needs, you won’t regret it. We will be reaching out to Philip for any future dog sitting needs we will have going forward. Again, thank you Philip!”
“As always, Joel is the best when it comes to looking after our home, and more importantly, our dog Loki. Loki loves Joel, and is always happy to see him! Joel takes such good care of Loki, keeps him to his routines and follows any special requests we might have. Joel takes great care of our home, always leaving it clean and tidy, and treats our space with respect. We have booked Joel for 3 weeks next year while we are overseas. Thank you Joel!”
About: Cats & dogs have always been a part of my life, and I have always had the passion to care for them. Having three cats and dog of my own has only given this passion the opportunity to grow. I take pride in my ability to connect to animals through patience and understanding. There is no furry friend I couldn’t love. I currently work from home taking care of my grandmother, and have open availability for any day of the week. My weekends are always open for the particularly adventurous! My 5 yr old dog is a lover boy and will always be excited to have another furry friend to join us on our walks and adventures. I prefer to care for animals in their homes as I consider the fact it can be very anxious for any animal.
“Alice was amazing! She was so responsive and really sweet to my older, shy pup. She checked in regularly, sent photos and cared for Blair just perfectly - I felt so comfortable leaving my girl with her and will definitely be booking her again. :)”
“Kerstin is wonderful! She stayed with our two pups and kept us updated while we were away, and went above and beyond by coming back to check in on our girls and feed them when our flight connections failed and our homecoming was delayed. My husband and I are grateful she looked after our dogs so well, she made us all feel like family.”
“Vanessa was amazing! 🤩 She’s super responsive, and proactively sent photos of the pups to know let me know they were ok. She’s very detail oriented, which I appreciated. All in all a great job!”
“We were very lucky to come across Aicha who did a wonderful job taking care of our very old and grumpy dog, Maverick. She was a great communicator from booking to completing her stay (she actually communicated with another dog sitter for a handoff, which was going over and above). She was very familiar with helping an old and moody dog (keeping away from other dogs, picking up sometimes onto furniture). And, she was a great house guest (for over 2 weeks!). We have already booked her again!”
“Jill is awesome! She watched my very high energy 30 lb mixed dog. I could tell that she was comfortable handling any size dog with her interactions with my dog. She sent pictures and updates while I was gone. I will definitely be reaching out to request more support from her.”
“Brittany took excellent care of our two dogs while we were on vacation. She sent us frequent text pictures and videos so we new our dogs were doing well. Will definitely use her services again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Hilda stayed with our two dogs for a few days and did an absolutely amazing job. She kept us updated regularly with messages and adorable photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the entire time. Hilda was professional, communicative, and so kind to our pups. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jodie was so attentive with our pets and made sure they were happy and well taken care of while we were away. Her daily feedback also really made us at ease while traveling. She also left the house pristine at the end of the sit - which shows how above and beyond she goes! Highly recommend her!!”
“Larisa is absolutely wonderful! She is very attentive, detail oriented, and very quick to respond. She played and loved our sweet Hazel girl as if she was her own. I highly recommend Larisa to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again! 🤗💗🐶🐾”
“Adia was excellent with our shy pitbull pup. She was patient, calm, and persisted with earning his trust and followed our instructions responsibly and dilligently. Adia respected the house and made sure to spend ample time at home to keep our pup company while we were away. She also sent pictures with updates and questions every few days for our peace of mind. Would 100% work with her again.”

Kiana V.
“Kiana has always had a deep passion for animals, and takes care of her own to her best ability. Kiana is kind and loving to all animals, and truly all creatures. Kiana is very aware of her own pets physical and mental state, along with assisting others in better understanding their animals. Training her dog Max is something she takes great pride in. Kiana would be my personal choice in caring for my cat Bubbles, as she bonds very well with animals.”

Kristina E.
“My dog is very picky as to who she will love and allow to love on her. Kristina is one of her chosen few. I never have to worry when I leave Maisy in her care. I know she will get all the snuggles she needs. Maisy goes under the bed when I'm not home, when Kristina shows up Maisy comes right out and is very excited to see Kristina.”
College Glen pet parents share their Rover experiences
Absolutely amazing sitter! They went above and beyond caring for our dog and elderly cat—walks, playtime, even brushing our kitty. Outdoor plants watered, fountains filled, mail and packages brought in, and the house spotless when we returned. Our pets were happy, our home was perfect, and they were incredibly kind, observant, and resourceful. A+ all the way! I will be hiring Phillip & Jenny again soon!
Leah did a phenomenal job watching our 3 dogs and housesitting while we were on vacation. She was very responsive and kept us updated regularly with how everything was going and sent photos of our pups. In addition, she kept up with checking on the yard outside, picking up dog droppings and even let us know she cleaned up oleander flowers that fell into our yard and made sure the yard overall was kept safe and secure. When we returned home we found the house in excellent shape, exactly as it was when we left. We are so glad we found Leah and definitely would love to use her services again in the future!
Kelly took great care of our boys and provided daily updates and pictures, which is so appreciated while we’re away and missing our boys. She knows each of their personalities and needs so well. Both boys were well cared for and felt plenty of love while we were away. Kelly also picked up our backyard area, took out the trash, brought in mail, and kept the house in great shape.
Jocelyn was a fantastic dog and housesitter while we were gone. This was our longest time away from our pup, which had us a bit nervous, but Jocelyn was incredibly communicative and was kind enough to send us pictures to keep us updated on how Mattie was doing. We would definitely have Jocelyn provide dog care again!
Kristie is a gift, a straight up gift. She has such a natural way with animals, kind, patient, and incredibly attentive. My human-size Great Dane is a rescue and is sometimes Squirrelly around new people, but she warmed up instantly to Kristie. I had never seen my dog put her head in a person’s lap that she had known for two minutes, until Kristie! Also, my cat doesn’t really even let my mom pet her, who she’s known for years. But of course, Kristie broke that ice really quickly and my jaw dropped when my cat let Kristie pet her the first time they met. Throughout the entire time I was away, Kristie kept me updated with daily photos, messages, and little notes about how my pets were doing. It brought me so much peace of mind, knowing my dog and my cat were not just being “watched,” but truly cared for and loved. I came home to happy, relaxed pets. It’s clear that Kristie goes above and beyond. She does not just meet expectations, she exceeds them in every way. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for your pets, look no further. I would recommend her in a heartbeat, and I will definitely be booking again!
I cannot recommend Kelli and her family enough! They went above and beyond while staying at our home and taking care of our four dogs (all different ages, different temperaments and needs). Kelli is a great communicator, sent us lots of updates and pictures, and has a natural way with dogs. One of our puppies can be high strung and doesn’t always listen, but was very responsive to Kelli. My husband and I returned to a very clean home and to our calm and happy four dogs. It was almost like they didn’t even notice us being gone haha. Kelli even washed out sheets and towels, which we never expected or asked for!!! This time we were gone for 3 nights and are looking forward to our soon upcoming trip abroad of 16 days. We both are relieved to have found somebody like Kelli and her family and could not ask for better dos sitters. HIGHEST recommendations!!
Brittany did a great job watching Buddy. She went above and beyond - took great care of him, sent me regular photos and updates, gave him his medication and even cleaned the house. My dog has separation anxiety but she knows how to take care of all types of dogs. Her husband also really connected with Buddy too which was great. I would definitely use her again. I feel very grateful that I found such a wonderful dog sitter.
he hardest part about going on vacation is leaving behind our fur babies. Our babies are older, stubborn very spoiled and can be very difficult to care for. It’s really hard to trust anyone to care for them so finding Nhi was a blessing. I needed someone to stay at my home to watch over them. Nhi was very patient with our babies. She followed directions down to the smallest detail and took time to hand feed our finicky eaters when they wouldn’t eat. She gave them so much attention, time and patience. After a few days, our babies followed her around, they even wanted to spend time with her and you can tell they trusted her. I would not hesitate to invite Nhi back to our home to watch over our precious babies. She’s very trustworthy, dependable and caring. She kept in contact with us and provided daily updates and sent us the cutest pictures. We are already planning our next trip knowing Nhi is someone we can count on in the future. Thank you, Nhi, for taking such amazing care of our babies so we can enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter.
