“Emma dogsat for us for several days and did a wonderful job with our two little ones fone of whom is extremely ambivalent about strangers, but fell in love with her right away)! I felt totally comfortable with her taking care of our babies while we were gone. She was kind, reliable, very responsive, and flexible when my drop-ins changed due to a last minute flight delay. She even helped keep our beloved plants alive! So happy we found someone we can trust with our fur babies while we’re away!”


“Sara is literally the best. She follows all instructions, is super communicative, and takes such great care of my cat! She goes above and beyond to make sure he is well cared for. I won’t leave home unless Sara is available ! I can’t thank her enough xo”


“Sarah saved my behind! She was able to come last minute and spend some time with my dog during the day. He was able to get his exercise and a some cuddles as well. Thank you!”


“Lovely and reliable pet sitter. Mermsie instantly bonded with Ezzy and Ezzy already wags furiously when Mermsie walks in. She showed up exactly on time every day and excellent communication. She is warm and friendly. I am happy to have found her!”


“Tara is the best! She has watched our cats many times now and takes such good care of them. I can tell she really enjoys spending time with them and giving them the attention they need while we’re away. We know we don’t have to worry about the cats while we’re away because they’re in good hands!”


“Amy visited our house daily to feed and play with Tilly while we were out of town. She provided prompt and friendly communication and made sure everything she needed to care for Tilly was addressed. Amy’s reliability allowed us to relax just that much more on our vacation knowing that our pup was happy in good hands.”


About: I’ve owned large dogs my whole life and have been through the training process with all dogs, so I am well equipped at walking and handling animals. I have a very flexible schedule and I am available for pet care at any hour and day besides on Friday nights where I have a part-time job. In my home, the dogs are fed twice a day with treats between feedings. Everyday we make sure to get in a long walk and or a game of fetch for some daily exercise

“Devon is excellent with my dogs!! They can’t wait to see her! She has spent time training the puppy which is extremely helpful. Devon is so knowledgeable. I don’t know what we would do without her.”


“Linda was very communicative and flexible while watching our cat who was in the middle of an allergy flare up. Lots of pictures and details left in each rover card. Great cat sitter!!”


About: Animals have my heart! I have grown up with dogs, and in my adults years had multiple cats. I have a 2.5 year old German Shepard that I have had since she was 8 weeks old. Living in a condo has given me the opportunity to get outside, leash train, and help my girl grow! I am comfortable with large dogs, small dogs, old dogs, young dogs. All dogs are the best :) Flexible schedule — full time student online so I am available majority of the time to walk, visit, and sit. Whether it’s for one-off help, or for regular help, I’m available to care for your dogs. I leash walk my own dog and am familiar with the local parks and trails that I bring my own dog too as well. I can come to you, bring your pet in my car if you wish to have them go for a visit to a park, flexible around any and all needs

About: We've had a family dog for 18.5 years, each year full of unconditional love. I now have a dog of my own and hope to spend just as many loving years with him. Each dog I met makes an imprint with me, whether it be family dogs or ones I pass during a walk. I am available to spend time with your beloved pets at any time! I can walk them throughout the day while I walk my own dog and can be available for house sitting upon request! I have a big yard with a runner for the dogs to play on. I live on a dead end street that isn't too busy so there is no worry for your pup to run off. All my neighbors are friendly and would lend a hand if anything were to happen!

“Jolene did a great job watching Gwen! She was able to accommodate our last-minute request, followed instructions, and took great care of Gwen (including playtime and zoomies!). Would definitely book again. Thanks so much, Jolene!”


“Margaux was so great at dropping in to check on our cat, Danny, while we were away. She gave comprehensive report cards and diligently followed directions given. On top of that, she asked thoughtful questions about our pet that indicated she truly understood and cared about animals. We would love to have Margaux care for our Danny again!”


About: I'm very patient with animals. I love spending time with them. I often pet sit for people in my social circle and enjoy it very much. I work from home 3 days a week. I'd be happy to spend my work day keeping your pet company during your work day away from home. I follow the wants of the pet parent. Whether it be no more than 2 goodies a day. Make sure they get some fresh air and snuggles.

About: I’ve always grown up with a dog in the family. I understand the connection piece with dogs and find great joy in spending more time with them than humans at times. I raised my own pup from 14 years old and intend to spread my love for more as it fills my heart to be with dogs and make a difference along the way. I’m pretty flexible! I have an open and flexible schedule. I can do overnights, and long hours of catering to your pet if need be so they don’t get lonely. I always love a good walk in nature and witnessing them play without rushing the experience. I talk to dogs like humans and even teach them a few tricks I taught my own pup. I make sure they feel loved and entertained and love keeping busy. I’m very attentive to time scheduling so when they need to go out again or eat, I make sure all is handled. I also give lots and lots of love.

“She was attentive and sent great pictures. I was very lucky to have had Lovely watch and care for my fur babies. I was so nervous and after the second check in my heart and nerves were at ease. I would definitely booked her again, I am so grateful for all her help.”


“*Great with puppies!* *Keep reading to find out how she went above and beyond!* I would definitely recommend Nicole for a "drop-in" visit for your pet! She responded to Rover messages in a professional and timely manner and she was open and honest about availability before we even met. Nicole came for a meet and greet and listened to all my particular requests as l am a (new!) puppy parent. Nicole "dropped-in" 2x / day for 2 days. She was to let my brand new, 3 month old puppy, out of the cage and outside while practicing “go pee pee,” "sit" and "down" with Lucy. She followed all my directions perfectly as I wanted Lucy's care to be consistent with mine, since she's just a puppy and new to our home. I appreciated the detailed notes she wrote about her visit and the photos she included on the Rover card! It put my mind at ease while I was at work. Thank you, Nicole! Want to know how she went above and beyond in just 2 days? 1) Nicole taught 3 month old Lucy how to walk down stairs.. in just 4 visits! 2) Nicole taught ME a trick to easily put on wiggly Lucy’s harness! Thanks for everything, Nicole! Hopefully you’ll be able to come help us out again soon!”

Dayna E.
“Dayna is a dream come true for pups! She is patient, caring and has an unconditional love for animals. Ive seen her compassion for their well being and her effective and calm manner with every pet she's cared for. She's walked and sat for my [almost] 2 year old German Shephard who is 95 lbs of playful energy and Dayna is always up for the task. My pup loves hanging out with Dayna and even walks me to her house looking for her! I trust only her with my furbaby and anyone else should too!”


Jordan K.
“Jordan is the best loving "dog mom" to her 5 year old golden. She always puts him first and makes sure he is always very well taken care of.

It's hard to find a trust-worthy, dependable, caring individual - but look no further. You would be lucky to have her care for your family pet(s). I know she is the first person I would think of!”

Hayley went above and beyond for our furry daughter while we were away on a long vacation! This was our first time using a sitter via Rover so we had some nerves going into the process, but Hayley was very communicative and even did an initial meet and greet with our cat before booking. We gave Hayley specific instructions for visits and followed everything down to the very last word. Her post-visit Rover cards were descriptive and came with kitty photos that reassured us but also made us miss her a lot! It was great to see that our cat felt very comfortable and warm towards her right from the beginning. At the last stay, Hayley took a picture of the remaining pet supplies so we were prepared to make any pet store stops if needed. I'm very happy with this booking and can't wait to use Hayley in the future!

Stuart took great care of my kitties Mags and Leela while I was away for work -- feeding them, scooping their litterboxes, spending quality time with them, and sending me daily reports with photos. It really put my mind at ease to know they were safe and well cared for. I'll definitely book with Stuart through Rover again, next time I need to take a trip.
