Top rated Covington house sitters

“Kristen stayed in our home and watched our little dog for almost three weeks. She sent us lots of pictures of our puppy every single day, kept us informed of and expertly handled our dog's minor health issues, asked appropriate questions about our dog and home so that she could manage everything, and left the house far cleaner than we'd provided. This was the longest we'd ever been away, and Kristen made us feel at ease every step of the way. We never worried, and would hire her back in a heartbeat!”


“Stephanie was great with my two 9 month old pups. She was clear about setting expectations, rose to the occasion when one of the pups had an ‘incident’, kept them active with multiple walks in the day and did everything with enthusiasm and love.”


“Brittney and Megan were absolute angels!! From the moment I booked with them, they went above and beyond—checking in with me every day, sending the cutest, most beautiful photos of my babies, and most importantly, loving them like their own. 🥹💛 Knowing they were safe, snuggled, and genuinely cared for brought my anxiety down more than I can say. I could feel the warmth and peace they created in my absence. I will never be able to thank them enough—and I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again in a heartbeat. Truly the dream team. 💫🐾✨”


“Brandi is great! She is friendly, competent, and caring. She took care of my three high needs pets for two days sending me updates through out her care. Her attention to detail allowed me to enjoy my time away and not worry about my babies.”


“Danielle is amazing! It was our first trip leave the dogs at home so we were little worried, but she took care of the dogs so well. We'll definitely book her again for the next trip!”


“Michael and Madisyn are the best dog sitters we’ve had! We got daily updates on feedings, play time, walks and cuddles. The house was literally spotless when we returned. They’re communicative, respectful and most importantly, truly love and care about your pets. I highly recommend them for any services.”


“Another amazing visit! All three of our pups absolutely adore her, she takes wonderful care of them, we get regular communication, and she’s just overall a delight to work with! Highly recommend.”


“Vanessa helped care for our furry family while we were out on vacation, and we greatly appreciated her care and responsivness. Despite our pets throwing various challenges at her, she reached out as needed for direction and handled it with grace. Including taking great care of our kitten who got an eye injury right before our vacation and needed additional care! When we got home everything was tidy and well cared for so our return was stress free.”


“Another great booking Natalia! She pet and house sit for us for a week. My dogs and cat adore her. She went above and beyond (as always) and met with me in advance of our trip so I could go over some changes to the care for our pets. She sent updates and photos everyday and I always felt at ease knowing my fur babies are in good hands. 🫶”


“Kritika is such a wonderful pet sitter! Kritika recently watched our two kitties while we were out of town and as usual was fantastic. She took the time to play with them, fed them their favorite treats, and sent lovely thoughtful updates to let us know how they were doing. Our cats love Kritika and we are very grateful for the care she provides!”


About: I have over 10 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. I have 4 years experience as a veterinary assistant. I also have experience in puppy care and training, as well as senior dog experience. I am fairly flexible when it comes dog walks or playtime. I am available Monday through Sunday 8am-7pm. When it comes to house/pet sitting weekends and Fridays work best. I can work weekdays however I am more limited. I take walks 2-3 times per day, poop scoop the yard twice a day, give enrichment puzzles and toys available for them at all times. Depending on the dogs needs I also have experience giving medication twice daily as well as breakfast, lunch, and dinner to picky eaters.

“Mandi was absolutely amazing! She cared for our dog, Skye, for 15 days and went above and beyond to make sure she had everything she needed—especially when Skye got sick. Mandi’s attention, compassion, and communication gave us so much peace of mind. She didn’t just care for our dog, but was also incredibly helpful with our home and plants. We can’t say enough great things about her—highly recommend!”



“Selig was amazing. We came home to very calm, happy pets (he even fed the hummingbirds!), a clean house, and after all that, he even left us a gift! He is a naturally warm and kind-spirited person. Obviously very trustworthy and loving with all animals.”


“Jacob is an amazing sitter! He's very detailed and kept me updated on my kitty cat daily! I booked him for a week long house sitting and when I came back, the apt was spotless and my pet was relaxed and happy! I am very satisfied with Jacob's sitting and would totally book him again in the future! Thanks Jacob!”


“We had Jackie house sit and she was fantastic. Our dog can be weary of strangers but he took to Jackie immediately. She is a fantastic communicator and sent sweet pictures of our fur babies. We’d recommend Jackie as a sitter to others and will book with her again!”


“Sara took amazing care of my 2 dogs while I was away! She was quick to respond to messages and my dogs absolutely loved her! Definitely booking with her again!”


About: I've been a pet lover since I was a little kid, and I've had dogs ever since I was 12; my parents weren't dog people, but when I was 11 I wrote a 10-page proposal detailing why we should have a dog and how I would be responsible for its care, and I won them over. Currently we have a very sweet 30lb Australian labradoodle who makes new friends easily. My husband and two kids (10 and 6) are pet lovers as well, so your dog will have all the attention s/he wants. We live in a safe neighborhood with a securely fenced back yard and will be happy to let everyone in or out as needed, in addition to daily walks. I'm also happy to send your pet home freshly bathed, if desired. I can't wait to meet your furry friend and care for them like my own! I work from home, so I'm rarely gone for more than a couple of hours, and only once any visiting pets are comfortable in my home. Otherwise, I'm around to pet, play and care for your fur baby all day. In addition, daily walks help keep us all fit! We have a fully fenced back yard and a friendly dog of our own to keep your fur baby company. All pets are welcome to snuggle in bed or on the other furniture if they are so inclined. Crates are welcome and can be used upstairs or down, but are not required.

“Kelly is amazing! We got home to super happy pups and they are clearly comfortable with her. It is so wonderful to have someone that we can trust and our boys clearly love. It is a huge a relief for us to have someone who understands our dogs and is willing to take care of them. So happy to have found her!”


About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I grew up caring for animals and spent time volunteering at Humane Society’s walking dogs and cleaning cat kennels. I currently have a dog and three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pets company while you're away, I’m experienced, patient, and passionate about giving animals the attention and love they deserve. I’m comfortable with a variety of breeds and personalities and am happy to follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and relaxed. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate last-minute bookings or special requests. Whether you need someone for daily care, weekend getaways, or unexpected plans, I'm happy to help make sure your pets are well taken care of when you need it most. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs, so they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. You can count on regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you're gone.

About: With everything from daily drop ins to staying overnight & providing daily exercise I can do it all. I have been caring for pets as a job for 5 years and have loved all animals my whole life. I’m currently looking for a part time job to prepare for cosmetology school and Rover sounds like the perfect fit. I’m free full time until mid September when I’ll be in school on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday during the day. I will still be available after 7pm on those days, and available all hours the rest of the week. I greet them with hugs and excitement, make sure they have food & water, take them out to explore and have potty breaks/clean litter box, cuddle and play, and make sure I do whatever the client needs me to do.

“Lily has cared for our pets many times while we're away, and is always our #1 pick. Lily spends lots of time with the cats, and makes sure everyone is fed,watered and loved on. They trust her and we'll typically get some pictures of them perched on her lap getting cuddles. We have chickens as well and recently had some fairly complicated evening routines with the pullets, but she aced it! Can't recommend her enough.”
Covington pet parents share their Rover experiences
This is our second time with Jackie, Ziggy really likes and remembers her. She is very attentive to his needs and gives him many walks a day, she is very quick to reply to any questions or messages and she sends tons of photos throughout her stay! I would definitely work with Jackie again and again. :-)

Kelly is amazing! We got home to super happy pups and they are clearly comfortable with her. It is so wonderful to have someone that we can trust and our boys clearly love. It is a huge a relief for us to have someone who understands our dogs and is willing to take care of them. So happy to have found her!

Really great sitting by Christina! This was a last minute booking after another sitter has to cancel. She communicates well, and was really nice and friendly at the meet and greet. She's really good with animals and took great care of my little guys. The house was super clean when we returned as well.

Ryasa did an excellent job for us, on very short notice. It was our first experience using Rover.com or any pet/house sitting service ... so we were learning. She kept us informed, sent occasional photos, kept our home occupied, etc. It was great. We gave a tip onsite, rather than via the app. Sorry! 😆

Husrav took care of my elderly, easy, but sensitive dog with great care. The house was also left in great condition! Would love to book with him again!

Amber was punctual, responsive, and did an excellent job watching Kenai and the house. Definitely would recommend her and use her again.

Sammi took great care of our two senior dobermans, followed all instructions as written and administered all medications as prescribed. We couldn't be happier with our pet sitting experience. Our home was left in the same condition as we left it. Thanks Sammi!
