“Lucy is our go-to to ensure our pups are taken care of when we’re away for an extended period. She takes great care of the dogs and we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our high maintenance geriatric dogs.”

“Elaine was a great dog sitter. Very thorough with details about our fur babies while we were away. She was also very loving with our pups which made me feel that they were in good hands and being well looked after. Came home to happy pups very satisfied with the service as a first time user of Rover. I will definitely use Elaine again anytime we are in need of a dog sitter. Thanks again Elaine ???.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and proud pet parent, caring for animals is truly one of my greatest joys. I currently share my home with two lovable pups, and I’m also a proud grandparent to three grand-doggies and one grand-kitten—yes, it's a full and furry family! With years of personal experience and a genuine passion for animals, I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every walk and pet check-in. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, including senior dogs needing a little extra love—whether it’s administering medications, helping with mobility, or just providing that gentle, loving presence they deserve. Before diving into pet care full-time, I was an elementary school teacher, which means patience, responsibility, and attention to detail are second nature to me. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own—with kindness, care, and lots of tail wags! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! Currently, I am available for drop ins and walks two times per day. This summer, my schedule is far more open and could easily fit additional times, as needed. I would follow whatever directions/guidelines are provided for me so that your pet(s) routines are kept as close to what they are used to as possible.

“wonderful job once again. Second time I’ve used Alyssa and my cat Max has already started accepting her. He is normallyquite picky and usually afraid of everyone.”

“Valarie stepped in and really helped out when I needed a last minute change. I appreciated her approach to my elderly chihuahua and my dog really liked her.”

Pam C.

“Crystal is the best pet sitter ever. My cats adore her. She was able to give my cat her pills twice a day without any problems. She was very professional in our communication. I appreciate how reliable Crystal is. I knew my cats were in good hands while I was away which gave me peace of mind. Crystal kept me updated the entire time.”

Erin N.

“We are so appreciate of Mindy’s great care while we were gone. Her experience and knowledge gave us true peace of mind and her communication about the visits was a wonderful bonus. We traveled home knowing everything was well - we found happy pets and a cleaner-than-necessary home! We will certainly use Mindy’s services again.”

About: I have raised almost 3 dogs now from puppy hood so I am very experienced with younger dogs. If your dogs are friendly I have my dog with me full time for them to play with. I am very patient and understanding and would feel honored to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible until your return. I can accommodate any breed big or small so be sure to choose myself when your in need of a walker or sitter. Pet care is one of the most important parts of my weekly routine. From taking care my own to my clients pets, I am a full time pet sitter so all of my work focus is on that. I have a comfortable home that is very pet friendly and other dogs of my own to keep them company. I can crate if needed just let me know what ever your pet would need best.

About: My whole life I have worked with animals from experience with my own pets, to working at shelters and animal sanctuaries, pet daycare and boarding with Animal Humane, and fostering pets with medical needs or are too young to be adopted. I work M-F 7am-3:30pm. I typically go home at lunch time so I can let your pet out for a mid-day potty break if needed. I live in a pet friendly apartment with hardwood floors just in case there’s any accidents. The neighborhood I live in is safe with nearby walking trails. I keep plenty of treats on hand and can work with your pets specific needs.

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have a dog named Scrappy who inspired my passion for pet care. Through him, I’ve learned how to connect with dogs of all temperaments and understand their body language, needs, and routines. I have experience with basic puppy training (crate, potty, leash walking) as well as caring for senior dogs who need patience, gentle movement, and medication. I offer calm, one-on-one attention in a cozy environment that feels like home. Every dog I care for gets the same love and respect I give Scrappy. I just graduated high school, so I have lots of free time and a very flexible schedule! I work a part-time job with plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and weekends. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I love spending time with animals, whether it’s morning walks, playtime breaks, or cozy evenings in. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to adjust to your dog’s needs and schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs can feel safe and relaxed—no overcrowding, no chaos, just lots of love and attention. I’m careful with introductions, keep doors secure, and always supervise playtime. If I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely and treat your space with the same respect I give my own. I pay attention to details, give regular updates, and make sure your pup feels happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

“Katie was great with Millie. We just needed her for a one time visit but she also did a meet and greet the day before. She was professional and prompt.”

Julie M.

“We officially hired David on rover and as always everything was great. The cats love him and were all so happy. Everything was taken care of properly and as asked. Can’t recommend enough. I also appreciate that there is no extra charge for having more than one cat. It’s never made sense to me that I have to pay someone coming into my home for the same half hour block of time more just because we have more than one pet. Thanks so much!”

Monica H.

“As always, I had a wonderful experience with Celine. She was professional, caring, and attentive to my pet’s needs. I appreciated her regular updates. My cats were happy and relaxed upon my return. I highly recommend her”

About: Hi! I’m 19 and have cared for dogs and cats since I was 5. I’ve helped with bathing, basic training, and often take dogs on mountain hikes and other adventures! I’m kind, responsible, and love animals of all sizes. I have lots of free time this summer and would love to keep your pet happy, active, and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible summer schedule, so I’m available for drop-ins, walks, or extended care throughout the week -I love making pets part of my daily routine! I live in a safe, gated apartment community with plenty of green space for walks. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure pets get lots of outdoor time with regular walks around the neighborhood or trips to nearby parks. Inside, they’ll have a cozy, clean space to relax, with plenty of attention, affection, and playtime.
