“Kymberlee is very responsible and professional. She housesat for me and looked after my dog over the weekend, and I was very grateful for her capable demeanor and experience, especially because my dog had a recent injury and needed extra attention. She left my apartment in much better shape than she found it, and she dropped everything to help after I realized I’d left my ID at home while I was traveling. She is truly a class act, professional individual, and I highly recommend her.”
“Jda was an amazing housesitter! She accommodated a last-minute addition of a second dog, sent great photo updates and left the apartment clean and the dogs happy! I’d love to hire again!”
“Jayme was a good house sitter and took good care of our dog and cat. Jayme updated us daily with texts and pictures, and answered questions promptly. When we returned our pets were happy and our home was just as we left it. If we need a house sitter/pet sitter again, we will reach out to Jayme!”
“Used Tobias while we went away on vacation. He was great with Bailey and Kali. He listened to our care instructions and attended to their needs perfectly. He is extremely easy going and communicative. Loved getting pics everyday to see how our dogs were doing. Def will rebook and recommend him to anyone”
“Really appreciate Jared's attention to detail. Our pets have a somewhat complicated feeding schedule! Communication level was great and gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Russell was an excellent sitter in our home for our demanding cat while we were away for 10 days. He sent lots of pictures and asked good questions. It was super clear how much he cared about her well-being and loves animals. We would highly recommend Russell as a pet/house-sitter!”
About: I am great with dogs. Choose me if you want your dog to be treated like family and to get lots of exercise while you are away. I have a backyard that is fenced in, parks all around my home and we will go on lots of walks. We go on long walk in the morning and evening so your pet will get plenty of exercise and engagement with me. I currently work full time during the day with teleworking. I am free on the weekends and like to spend my time outside whenever possible. I have a fenced in backyard. I prefer to have a crate available to secure your pet if I need to run an errand - I am flexible with this request. I understand crating isn’t an option for everyone.
“Isabelle exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter! From the moment she arrived, our dog Max felt completely at ease with her, which says a lot about her natural way with animals. She kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos that gave us complete peace of mind knowing Max was happy and well-cared for. What really impressed us was her attention to detail - not only did she take excellent care of Max, but she also left our home spotless.”
“Amazing! Kai took such great care of my dog; gave him a ton of attention and took him out to meet his family which was very sweet. Rio seemed to have a blast with him, I will absolutely be using Kai again in the future. Thank you!”
“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”
“Alayza is a dog whisperer! She’s amazing, kind and patient. My dog has big stranger danger and fear aggression when meeting someone new and it seems he warmed up to her pretty quickly. By the second day he was cuddling with her and letting her pet him! I highly recommend Alayza!”
“5+ stars. All the stars! Due to my schedule I couldn't do a meet and greet beforehand, but that didn't change anything. Our 3 Bullies LOVED her! You would've thought she had been with them before. I returned home to happy, safe, and exercised doggies! I had such peace just knowing they were taken care of. She has skills. Period!”
“Madison was great, she was kind enough to make time before the scheduled date and come to discuss the details. My dog was very loved and taken care of. :)”
“Flor took amazing care of our two dogs at our house while we were out of town. She was reliable and communicative throughout the stay. I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Ada was amazing!! This was my first time using the App and she made me feel so comfortable. She agreed to a meet and greet prior to my house sitting dates and my dogs loved her instantly. She was very communicative and kept me informed on everything. As this was my first time leaving my babies with anyone outside of family, we were all a bit nervous and hoping this was a good match. My mom even checked in with Ada and she was totally cool with. My mom and dog both have dogs and we are pretty certain Ada has 3 new clients. Ada maintained my home wonderfully. She really was patient with and understanding and I would recommend her 10/10, especially for new clients.”
Deanwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cannot say enough good things about Keaton. They looked after our 3 cats for two weeks. They capably handled multiple different kinds of meds for each cat, made sure each had their different needs for playtime and feeding met, and did it all with so much care for each. They sent multiple updates every day throughout the 2 weeks, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away, knowing the cats were in such good hands.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Issi! Our cat requires daily subcutaneous fluids, and finding someone trustworthy to manage that care is no small thing. Issi rose to the challenge beautifully — attentive, skilled, and genuinely loving toward our little lady. She treated our home with the same care and respect. Five stars simply isn’t enough. Highest possible recommendation!
Emily provided fantastic care for my dog Nutmeg! She sent frequent updates, asked great questions about his needs, bonded with him at his own pace, and was flexible with times. I came back to a happy pup and a spotless apartment. Would absolutely recommend and I will be asking her to care for Nutmeg again.
Gabriyela was everything you could ask for in a sitter at our home - she was professional, attentive, and communicated every day sending pics and updates while we were gone, and she left the house completely spotless. I could tell our pup was a happy girl to be able to stay in her own home and be cared for by Gabriyela. We will 100% be looking forward to booking with her again!!
Ada has easily become our number 1 sitter for the foreseeable future! She was absolutely wonderful! From the update summaries to the pictures, my babies were well taken care of. She even gave special attention to my senior baby and made me feel completely comfortable about leaving her for our trip. 1000/10 would recommend!
Setthawut took excellent care of my dogs Mufasa and Bear, house sitting for 3 weeks while we were on an overseas trip. He and his partner tag teamed to make sure our dogs needs were met. They sent regular photo and video updates, and also let us know whenever there was any change of plans. I am thrilled to have found such a dependable dog sitter on Rover. Highly recommended!
Sara was wonderful with our fur babies. She sent us updates and photos throughout our trip. It was easy to tell our girls quickly became comfortable with her, napping and snuggling up with her. She kept our home near and tidy, even taking the trash and recycling out, before she left. We will definitely be rebooking with Sara in the coming months.
Natalie is an outstanding sitter. She is super professional and intentional with caregiving. Our dogs got plenty of exercise, stayed on their schedule, and got a ton of extra attention while we were away. We received updates and photos throughout. Natalie stayed in our home, and communicated any home related issues and took wonderful care of our space. You won’t regret booking! We look forward to working with Natalie again in the future.
