“So thankful to have found Denise! She is responsive, responsible, and knowledgeable. My cat requires daily medications and subcutaneous fluids which Denise was able to administer without incident. I have so much peace of mind having a sitter who I can trust!”


“Ashley took great care of our cat while we were away for several days! Our cat requires oral medication which she was able to give him easily. When our flights were delayed she was extremely flexible and helpful to make sure our cat was still cared for. Will definitely rebook in the future.”


“This was my first time ever hiring a sitter to stay in my home, and I was honestly pretty anxious about it—especially because my dog is 13 years old and has a tough time getting in and out of the car, which is why I chose to have someone care for her in our home. From the moment I met Ella, she put my mind at ease. She was kind, professional, and had such a calm presence that made me feel confident I was making the right choice. Throughout her stay, Ella took amazing care of Storm and kept me updated regularly, which I really appreciated. It was such a relief to know my girl was in good hands and being treated with patience and love. Ella also treated my home with respect and left everything just as I had left it. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she gave me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. Highly recommend!”


“Hunter is great and my dogs love him. I would highly recommend hunter for anyone that is looking for house sitting. This is ideal for our dogs because they are used to someone being home with them most of the time and at night so I can go on vacation and not worry that my fur babies are stressed rather I know they are in good hands and having a fun time with Hunter!”


“Allie was great with our dogs and highly recommend her! We have a medically complex Great Dane who requires daily medication and frequent potty breaks. Allie was very attentive to her needs and all of our dogs appeared so happy and well cared for when we arrived home.”


“We booked Dykan for the first time for a long weekend away for house sitting. He volunteered to meet us and our two dogs before the booking to make sure we had a match which was greatly appreciated! Dylan is highly responsive, always providing updates, photos and videos throughout the day and night. Not only did he take incredible care of our fur babies, he also cleaned up everything that he used, from towels to toilet! We’ve already booked him again for our next trip. Thanks Dylan!”


“Laina is the best! She is so sweet and responsive! She was able to book us for a last minute trip over the weekend and took great care of the dogs. She gave me text updates and I could tell our dogs were super comfortable with her! She is my new go to girl :)”


“Raylon was great! Really appreciate the updates he sent to us, both photos and confirmation that both pets were eating great. That was really important especially as our elder kitty recently was having trouble eating and our dog just had a dental cleaning. It was a relief to hear and see updates and know that Raylon was with our babies at our home. He also took great care of our home. Thanks Raylon!”


“Lauren was absolutely AMAZING with my two pups. She was very communicative and very easy to work with. She was very tidy and took amazing care of my dogs while I was away. She made it so easy for my husband and I not to worry whatsoever about the care of our dogs and our home. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for in home sitting or any type of dog care. My husband and I travel often and I have to say that she has been the best sitter we have had since getting our 2 dogs. 10/10 would recommend”



“Arika was an amazing pet sitter. We have two dogs and a cat, one of the dogs being just over a year old, and very needy. Arika handled it like a champ and did not complain once. The house was clean when we got home and all the pets were happy and obviously well taken care of. She sent photos and videos throughout the week and even took the pups to the dog park. She took great care of our home and brought in all our packages while we were gone. I would recommend Arika to anyone looking for a pet sitter or house sitter.”


“Kelsey was amazing! We were very hesitant about using rover and have nothing but good things to say about our experience. She not only took care of our furry family member but went above and beyond with pictures, house care, and great communication.”


“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Lisa! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs, bunny, and home were in such caring hands. She went above and beyond—sending daily updates and photos that truly brightened our days and reassured us that everyone was happy and well cared for. Our dogs were clearly loved and pampered, and our bunny got special attention too, which isn’t always easy to find. The house was spotless when we returned, and it was obvious she treated our home with the same care and respect she gave our pets. It’s such a relief to find someone so trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely kind. We would recommend her to anyone without hesitation and can’t wait to book her again for our next trip!”


“Priscilla watched our three pets and house sat for us while we were on vacation and she was amazing. We could tell the dogs and cat were in a good mood when we returned and our house was just as clean as when we left, we’d definitely recommend her and plan on using her in the future. She was even willing to go above and beyond and help us with some special requests.”


“I had a fantastic experience with Isaac watching my dog Cru while I was away for 5 days. He was extremely attentive and kept me updated with frequent picture and video updates. I was pleasantly surprised to see that he even taught Cru a new trick during their time together. I highly recommend Isaac for anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future. Thank you, Isaac, for taking such great care of Cru!”


“Alexis is amazing! She’s watched our Jax multiple times now. She’s very tentative with him and keeps us updated with messages and pictures while we’re away. Jax couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I take pride in providing calm, attentive care. Whether your pup needs playtime, medication, or just a cozy space to rest, I treat every pet like my own. I currently work remote at PetMate where I work in the marketing department with a focus on dog toys! I recently completed my Master’s degree and now work part-time remotely in e-commerce in the Pet Toy industry, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. Your pet will get lots of attention, playtime, and personalized care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with multiple fenced-in dog areas throughout the complex—perfect for safe outdoor time and exercise. I have one small, 7-pound mixed breed dog (he is six years old) who is very gentle and loves to snuggle with new friends. My home is cozy, clean, and secure. I can also crate your dog if needed and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety while they’re with me.

About: Hi there — call me Joseph, J Taylor, Taylor, TayTay: I'm new to Rover, but I've spent over 10 years caring for dogs, cats, and other pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’m your pet’s temporary bestie when you have to call out for the evening, the week, whatever the case may be! Whether it's a high-energy pup or a senior needing extra attention, I offer dependable, thoughtful care tailored to your pet’s needs. Outside of pet care, I’m a working stage actor with a physically active lifestyle, which means I’m more than able to keep up with dogs who need a bit more than a stroll around the block. When I’m not performing, pet care is something I’ve consistently returned to — not just for extra work, but because I genuinely enjoy it. I offer house sitting, drop-ins, and walks, with experience in administering medication, reinforcing training, and providing specialized support for both younger dogs and seniors. Some of my favorite animal memories in my life include Spankey, my “first dog”: a Blue Heeler/Pit mix who found us in a Minyard’s parking lot and stayed for life— and Monkey, my totally sweet scrappy barn cat who lived to 18. She was my girl! I’d be glad to connect and learn more about your pet and what they need — I’m flexible, communicative, and happy to work with any specifics you might have. Chat soon! 🐶 I’m home for the summer from school where I’ve just completed my first semester of my Master’s degree in Directing for Theatre. Open availability through the middle of August! I update my schedule regularly, up to 9 months in advance. As soon as I find out about openings in the future, feel free to plan ahead with me! Overnight, AM or PM, I’ll have you covered. I always start by following the guidance you provide. My background as both an actor and director has taught me when to lead, when to follow, and how to read a situation — skills that translate naturally into thoughtful, responsive pet care. In my care, animals are treated with respect for their individual needs. I don’t believe in overindulging just because they ask — I aim for a healthy balance. High energy dogs will get the movement they need; quieter pets will be gently engaged in ways that suit them. I let animals take the lead when it’s right, and I step in with structure when it’s needed. Caring for animals isn’t one-size-fits-all — it’s a thoughtful rhythm, and one I really enjoy finding with each pet.

Samantha C.
“Samantha is one of the most responsible and caring people I know. She treats every pet like her own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy. Her patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection for animals make her the ideal dog walker. She has personally cared for both of my dogs, one of which has a disability, and they absolutely love her. After one of my dogs lost an eye in an attack by another dog, I became extremely cautious about who I trust. Samantha is the only person I feel completely comfortable leaving them with when I go out of town. My dogs have issues with most people, but not with her-she’s patient, gentle, and truly understands their needs. I would trust her without hesitation to care for any pet, knowing they’d receive exceptional attention and kindness.”


Joseph W.

“J. Taylor loves animals and they love him! He cares for my dog-daughter with genuine affection and attention to her needs. Will always call on him to assist.”
