“Ryan was incredible! He took care of my two crazy pups and exceeded my expectations! He is very easy to reach at all times and sent loads of pictures which made me feel much better about leaving. He loves your pups as his own! In addition, he left our apartment spotless which was great to come home to. He is AMAZING!”
“Gabriela was wonderful! She stayed in our home and we came back to two very happy dogs and a clean house. She was highly communicative and sent photos of our pups while we were away. We would be happy to have her back!”
“Kimberly was a great companion to our 2 small pups. They were quite anxious when we departed, but they settled right in with Kimberly! She left our place pristine and our pups happy!”
“Clair was great! Was very attentive, sent pictures and notes about how my 2 kitties were doing and even read through my crazy long cat manual/notes. Will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Kirby did an absolutely sensational job with our three dogs during me and my husband's wedding weekend! She showed up for two meet and greets before the weekend, and we knew our pups were going to be in great hands. Kirby was especially attentive to the needs of our Weimaraner, who has very bad separation anxiety. She sent thorough updates at the end of each day with lots of photos, and she took great care of our house. We will DEFINITELY continue to work with Kirby moving forward. 10/10 recommend to other dog owners looking for reliable in-house sitting.”
“Cienne took great care of my pups! She stayed at my home and sent lots of updates which I love. My girls looked very happy and comfortable. Will definitely have her over again!”
“Luna did an incredible job with Argo and caring for our home. Argo really opened up to her, in the past, he has been real sad with different sitters. Would definitely work with Luna again!!”
“Cori was fantastic with our big 100 lb dog Louie and cat Boo. We were gone for 11 days and felt reassured knowing that they were in good hands. Cori was thoughtful, communicative, and gave our boys lots of love!”
“Amber was awesome while watching my dogs! I felt at ease knowing they were in such good hands while I was out of town. She followed their schedule and care instructions perfectly and took them on lots of walks. Would love to have Amber watch them again for my upcoming trips 😊”
“Christine has been a great sitter for my two dogs- one who can be very slow to trust sitters and she always keeps me informed with pictures and dogs are happy!”
“Jessica went above and beyond to notify me throughout the day about my Frida and included many pictures. I felt so happy and worry free to know my dog was safe and having a fun time while I was on vacation. I will definitely be rebooking with Jessica in the future.”
“Barbara was awesome. She stayed with our two little dogs and cat and handled everyone perfectly. The cat requires a LOT of medicating, so taking care of her alone was not easy. Barbara left everything super clean — I think maybe cleaner than we left it for her. Really can’t recommend her enough. Thanks, Barbara!”

“This recent booking was our first overnight stay with Steven. I’ve booked Steven a couple times before for day-stays and I was so relieved to hear he was available for house sitting while I went on a several day hiking trip in California. My pup is anxious and very attached to me so, I have a hard time leaving her with just anyone. Knowing Steven would be taking care of my pup let me fully enjoy myself while I was away. I’m appreciative of his flexibility, understanding, and communication. Thank you for all of your kindness and patience with Palomita! Can’t wait for our next house sitting opportunity.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love caring for them! I’ve spent the last two years working at a dog park, where I handle dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities every day. I also train dogs and dog sit for many of my regulars, so I’ve built strong, trusting relationships with both pets and their owners. I have experience with everything from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care and patience. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure every dog feels secure and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is in great hands! I am available all times throughout the day to care for your animal. Your dogs routine is part of my daily routine. I make enough time to be sure that your pet gets the best care and attention it needs to be loved and happy. I take a detail oriented approach to pet care by following all instructions carefully whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or specific routines. I keep litter boxes clean, monitor their health and behavior, and make sure they get daily interaction and enrichment. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things tidy and secure, and I provide consistent updates for peace of mind. I have a nice good size back yard that is fenced for your pup.
“Alex did an outstanding job and kept my mind at ease while I was traveling out of the country. Every picture I saw from her my dogs had a huge smile and looked tired from all the fetch. Thanks again Alex!”
Colton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Suzette is amazing, she took great care of my American bullies and chihuahua. She played with them, took them a bath and made sure they were in great care. We even had an emergency delay with our trip to come back home and she was able to take care of them still.
Jordan was so professional, prompt, and had wonderful communication skills. He sent pictures daily, followed directions exactly, and had our boy snuggling with him very quickly. I felt very secure having Jordan in our home while we were away and immediately booked him for a second time.
Hailey was absolutely amazing with my two dogs, Spaceship and Orbit! She took care of them for three days and went above and beyond. Spaceship is usually nervous around new people, but she warmed up to Hailey right away thanks to her calm, gentle demeanor. Orbit is a total wild child, and Hailey handled her energy with no problem at all. She sent regular photos and updates, and even noticed a small nervous habit that one of the dogs has — which really showed how attentive she is. Zero hassle, completely professional, and just a genuinely great person to trust with your pets. I’ll definitely be booking her again, especially if you’ve got some picky pups like mine!
