“Ariana is fantastic! I get so nervous leaving our pup but she took absolutely excellent care of our dog! She sent videos and pictures and followed the feeding instructions perfectly for our high maintenance girl. We will absolutely book with her again!”

“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 been taking care of dogs and cats independently for family, friends, and other community members for 13 years. This includes everything from 6 week-old kittens to senior pups. I am reliable, communicative, and am here to keep your friend safe, entertained, and loved when you’re away! I currently work full-time remote as a program manager of an hospital system and am able to work from anywhere! There is a lot of downtime during my day so it means that I’m able to spend ample time with any pets I may be watching. I am attentive and excellent at following care instructions. It’s important to me that your pet receives commitment and love as if they were my own!

“Ryasa was fantastic! She stayed at our apartment while we went out of town and was great taking care of our pups. Great communication during booking and she gave me updates and photos and kept me posted on how everything was going during the stay. We have some spoiled pups.. one in particular.. and she handled him so well :) Made friends with him and definitely gave us peace of mind while we were gone. Would for sure recommend and rebook in the future!”
“Jayni house sat for us and kept our four dogs. She was awesome! The dogs had a great time and were completely happy when we got home, like we had never been gone. She left the house very clean. We absolutely will have her back to house sit again.”

“Followed instructions and took great care of our babies!! Was communicative!! Overall, great service, super friendly, and communicative!! Appreciate Danielle's help, especially with our changing schedule with our trip.”

“Nikki stayed with my pups for 4 days. Communications were quick, pictures came pretty regularly. When we came home everything was clean and dogs seemed just as we left them. She even got a bow back in my girls hair!!! We will use Nikki again if she’s available.”

“This was my first time using a stranger to take care of my dogs and I was a little nervous. However, Stephanie took great care of my two dogs. She sent lots of updates and daily photos. She was also very communicative and very respectful of our house. I would not hesitate to use Stephanie again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging in all size and age since I was a teen. I’ve taken care of cats as well 1-3 at a time. Currently between jobs so I have a lot of time I can spend with your pets! I tend to have a couple activities a week but can plan less with notice I will care for your pet at your house in whatever way you deem fit, whether that means crating or multiple walks a day. Whatever your pet does best with!
“England was a great pet/house sitter! She was very respectful of our home and provided thorough updates on the care of our fur babies. We would definitely book again in the future. 😊”

About: Hi, I’m Jacob! Im a Boston Terrier lover my first and only dog I have owned is my beloved Boston Terrier named Emma my family adopted her when I was 4 and she is now 14 years old. My whole life I grew up around animals as my grandparents own a cattle farm fostering my love for all types of animals. I have experience doing drop in dog visits as I've been the go to sitter in the neighborhood. I look forward to meeting your animals and building a connection with them! As a Running Start student at Green River Community College. My college schedule also gives me the flexibility to be available for walks and drop ins throughout the day. Your animal will be my number one priority and im willing to drop what im doing to make sure they are taken care of. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow all instructions to give the best results possible. I will treat your animals with the up most respect possible as id want someone to treat my dog. Additionally I will try to make your animal feel as safe and loved as possible while his parents are away.
“Olivia is awesome Very kind and caring with our dogs She took great care of them, stayed on top of our blind chihuahua meds and kept us up to date. Our flight got cancelled and she was very accommodating to help us care for our pups an extra night.”

“Jayden was amazing with our pets!! We have some unique needs and she was so attentive to detail. We were gone for a week and every day we got an update and she also sent some photos. She took care of the house, and it was clean when we returned home, just as we had left it! Our pets love her and we will for sure be rebooking with her.”

“Eleanor watched our dog Scout for us at our house over a 4-day long weekend. Scout got walks and lots of attention! We felt good leaving Scout in Eleanor’s hands while we were away—she’s communicative and very responsive. And left everything very tidy! We’d have her back for sure!”

Covington pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sara stayed with our Furs for the first time for four days. We have quite a crew with a cat needing daily medicine, a dog needing to be hand fed, and other quirky tasks as part of taking care our furry kids. Sara was excellent in completing all the little details and also thinking outside the box when issues happened - cat bringing in a dead bird, stubborn Shih Tzu refusing to eat, etc. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Sara again. Thank you!!!!

Isabella was amazing! She stepped in within just a couple of hours after my original sitter canceled last minute and stayed for two nights to watch my dog and cat. She kept me updated throughout her stay, sent me regular check-ins, and left my house spotless. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were well cared for. I would absolutely hire her again!

Annette is so great with our kitties, sends updates every day and totally goes above and beyond to make sure they're happy and healthy. I have a shy kitty that needs extra fluids, so she put a little water bowl under the bed and near her hangout spot so she could still get water even when she wanted to hide. That was so sweet and thoughtful! We really appreciate her watching our kitties!

Lily took great care of my animals while I was away! My chihuahua can be skittish & protective of her space, but Lily let her warm up to her and gave her the space she needed! Get several pictures of her and my dog sitting on the couch together and walking around. She followed my instructions well and arrived on time too! lily wasn’t afraid to ask any questions she had and was respectful to my home. Definitely plan on booking with her again in the future!
