“Jasmine has been amazing with my dog Cora. She’s also been easy to work with and I have no worries about my dog being left in her care. I highly recommend her services.”
“Genesis is everything you’d want in someone taking care of your pet! She was amazing with my senior dog and was a fantastic communicator too! I would highly recommend her services to anyone and will definitely be seeing her again soon! Thanks Genesis :)”
“Angelina was F A N T A S T I C. Communication was perfect, always there when we needed her, and she took SUCH good care of our Stewart, and that’s no small task because he’s kind of a dufus. But he’s our dufus, and Angelina made him feel like so happy and loved. He would absolutely lose his marbles as soon as he saw her pull into the driveway every day. We love our Angelina and can’t wait to hire her again in the future!!”
“Michelle was a lifesaver for a last minute booking. Great correspondence, timely arrival and excellent skills with my dog. Will definitely book again. Thank you!”
About: I grew up on a farm with all kinds of animals and with dogs my whole life! Friends always ask me to watch their dogs because they know how much I love to! I have done a variety of services on Rover over the past few years. I will soon graduate from PA school and will have many months before I start my job. I’m looking to fill that time with fun activities and also trying to make a little bit of money! I will have lots of time to give your dog(s) some love! I’m currently a physician associate student so my schedule varies. I graduate in a few short weeks and will then have a wide open schedule! I live in a large house with my older sister. We live in a quiet neighborhood and have a small unfenced backyard! Caring for dogs at their respective houses is preferable.
About: As someone who’s naturally calm, observant, and patient, I connect easily with pets who need gentle energy—whether they’re playful pups, anxious rescues, or sweet senior companions. I’m a homebody at heart, so your pet will always have consistent attention, a peaceful environment, and plenty of snuggles. I’m especially comfortable with older dogs who need slower walks or extra care, and I have experience reading subtle body language cues to keep pets happy and safe. I treat every animal like my own, and I’m here for the quiet moments, quirky habits, and unconditional love that come with pet care. I have open availability so pet care is the best part of my day! I’m home often, love quiet routines, and prefer paws over people anyway. I provide care in your pet’s home where they feel most safe. I follow routines, give calm attention, cuddles, and keep their space clean and cozy.
“I have been using these 2 for a couple of weeks with both Wag and now Rover. They have been great to my girl. They are helping her get the energy out in a safe way and even working on her focus in public. Much appreciated ?”
“Monsserath does great with my shy and anxious dog. She is very patient and understanding and has so much love to give my pup. She is super reliable and I can tell looks forward to seeing my pup every week! I am so lucky to have connected with her and look forward to working with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve owned a dog for almost half my life and have an absolute love for dogs of all breeds. My family and neighbors have consistently used me to dog sit for them over the years - experiences I have always enjoyed! I am excited to extend this love for dogs onto the pups in my local community. I work part-time in the mornings starting around 8am and being home everyday by around 2:30pm during the week which leaves me plenty of time to interact and care for your dog. Alternating weekends provide me additional flexibility and more time at home as well which can assist with pick ups or drop offs. I have a larger fenced in backyard that is located in a pet friendly neighborhood with access to plentiful parks and walking paths. Additionally, I have a small Bichon Shih Tzu who is friendly and mellow in her old age. My home provided numerous areas that are equipped for sectioning off a private area for your dog should that be required.
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up with multiple cats in the house as well as a large dog. When I was 10 my mom and I began to foster cats for the Wisconsin Humane Society. We have cared for nearly 200 cats and kittens, which ranged from bottle babies to feral cats to disabled and sick cats. I have also been dog walking since I was around 12. I have experience administering a variety of medications to animals, including oral, topical, and diabetic medication. I've helped to take care of my family's senior pets as they age. I also have experience with more exotic pet care, namely turtles and frogs! I have just finished my undergrad and am currently working part-time. My days are largely free to care for animals and am fully flexible depending on your schedule! Safety is the most important part of caring for an animal. Creating feelings of proper safety allows for trust to be built and a good relationship between animal and person. I have years of experience in creating trust with the most feral cats and know how to listen to animal body language and needs.
About: Hello, and thank you for looking at my profile! As a dog owner myself I completely understand how hard it is to know where to turn for dog sitting. You have come to the right spot. I will make sure that while you’re out of town the only thing you need to worry about, is what drink to order. I have had cats since I was about 7 years old. I learned from a young age to be responsible for feeding them, cleaning the litter box and giving them all the love they required. I’ve also had dogs including a pup with special needs so I’ve had plenty of experience administering medicine and shots if your pup needs some extra care. I love giving dog walks, playing fetch and snuggling with them. I love and care for all animals and will treat your fur baby as my own. I’m very excited to meet your pup and make sure they are loved as if they were at home. I am currently a full time student taking classes on line so I am home nearly all day. I also live with my husband and one middle aged American bulldog named Zoe. This allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I have a medium sized fenced back yard. I live in a neighborhood next to a great walking path and three schools that have parks for playtime and sidewalks for safety. We have a room where pups can play and mess around without hurting them selves and they are welcome to the entire house unless you prefer they not be. There are no kids or cats and lots of fun toys and balls to chew on and couches to lay on.
“Cassie was excellent to work with, quick to respond, and followed all instructions for our pup. There was even a large storm that came through and she still followed through with walking Stark albeit the bad weather. We highly recommend Cassie to anyone in the area and look forward to working with her in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 2 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.

Sharla B.
“Sharla is a wonderful dog sitter! She is extremely reliable and easy to communicate with. My 3-year-old Australian Shepherd, Charlie, immediately warmed up to her when he first met her. Charlie usually has a ton of energy but he is always tired out by the time I get home when Sharla watches him. She takes him rollerblading, on runs, for walks in the park and so much more. She has also watched Charlie overnight on multiple occasions and it has gone very well. Sharla is trustworthy, responsible, and hardworking. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She is great with animals and people. 10/10 recommend.”

“I’m thrilled to recommend my friend April for anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving pet sitter on Rover. She has a natural way with animals—patient, gentle, and genuinely caring. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or more unique pets, April treats each one like family. What really sets her apart is her attention to detail. She follows care instructions to the letter and always goes the extra mile to make sure pets are comfortable and happy. On top of that, her communication is top-notch—you’ll always know how your pet is doing with regular updates and photos that show just how much they’re being cared for. If you want peace of mind while you’re away, April is the one to trust. Your pets will be in excellent hands.”

Breana P.
“I highly recommend Breana as a responsible and loving pet care taker. She has spent a lot of time with my dog Chilly. When she first met Chilly, you can see Breana has a natural connection with animals. Chilly absolutely adores her, and I feel at ease knowing she’s in Breana’s care. Breana is my first call to care for my dog when I go out of town. Breana is responsible, attentive, and genuinely loves animals — you can see it in the way she interacts with them. Whether it's going on walks, playing in the yard, or just giving a little extra love and attention, she treats every pet like her own. I fully trust her to take great care of Chilly, and I know she'd be a fantastic caregiver for any dog. If you're looking for someone reliable, responsible, kind, and truly passionate about animals, Breana is the perfect choice.”
Catherine C.
“Catherine has had a great affinity for cats since she was born. She has been fostering them and nursing them back to health for years. She’s always who I go to when I have questions about cats wild or domestic. She understands their body language and how they feel better than almost anyone. Just take her cat Eclipse for example! Saved from the outdoors and only known a safe, happy life since! N.C.”
Crystal H.
“I’ve known Crystal for 11 years and she has always been a responsible pet owner and would be a great pet sitter. Crystal has had both cats and dogs during the time I’ve known here as well as a turtle! She loved them all. When she lived in Panama she started a meet up group of dog owners so her puppies would have a group of dogs to play with that would meet almost daily. They would even have pet birthday parties! One of Crystals dogs was a stray that she took in and it turned out he had some health issues. Crystal didn’t shy away or surrender the dog, instead she rose to the challenge. She made sure that dog had everything it needed to live as long and as loved as it possibly could. I know she would give him medicine on a daily basis and even administered IV fluids. Crystal is a an animal lover! She makes bandanas for all the neighborhood dogs and sets up play dates for her current dog to play and run around with other dogs. She walks her dog almost religiously, every day, sometimes twice a day. She even started an Instagram for her dog. Her and her husband built an amazing dog house for their dogs with a doggy door, windows and even a deck! She is as loving, caring and responsible of a person as you will find and would make an excellent pet sitter. I’d definitely let her take care of my pets and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy caring pet sitter.”

We love our Angelina and can’t wait to hire her again in the future!!
Bella did great with my high energy dog! She was careful to learn my dog's routine and special instructions, and gave me detailed updates after every walk. It's clear that Bella adores dogs and is very experienced, which helped to ease my dog parent anxiety. I'll gladly book with Bella again.
