“Angela did great with our bulldog! She stayed over at my house for a weekend and left the house as clean as when we left. She followed instructions very well and sent great updates throughout the day. She also reached out when she was concerned about our dog’s allergies and that was extremely kind of her! Would definitely book again!”
“Ty provided exceptional care for our dogs, demonstrating genuine love and understanding of their needs. His regular updates and photos helped ease our worries while we were away. Knowing that both our high-energy and reactive dogs were well cared for and enjoyed their time with him is invaluable. Will definitely be booking with Ty again!”
“We needed a sitter at the last min. She came same day and did the meet and greet. She was very nice and the dogs liked her. For it to be her first time house sitting she did an excellent job. We would most definitely use her again.”
“Ayobami was great! She took good care of our dog and cat and even fed our koi. She communicated daily (sometimes twice a day) with photos and videos. We felt very comfortable with her staying in our home and would definitely book with her in the future.”
“Alexandra is INCREDIBLE! She maintained consistent contact, she sent multiple videos and pictures the entire time! Remington got a nice walk, a car ride, a Dutch Bro cup, and lots of individual care aka SHE GOT SPOILED 💗🐾! I couldn’t have dreamed of a better Rover sitter! 10 OUT OF 10 would highly recommend!! We can’t wait to book again!!”
“Dakota stayed in our home and took excellent care of our pets. I received updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. He worked with our challenging Doberdane to make her comfortable with him. He is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and kind pet sitter.”
About: I take in any breed or size. I will love your fur baby like my own and make sure they get the care they need while in my care. I’m currently a stay at home mom to two teenage girls who are home schooled. It is always someone at home to supervise your fur baby. I have a large fenced in backyard that my current fur babies love to play in. I also have plenty of inside room for crates if needed.
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs S’mores and Knox. She came over and met them before dog sitting for the weekend which was really appreciated. She took great care of them, and one of them is a little people shy but he absolutely warmed up to her very fast! Couldn’t recommend her enough!!”
About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for a family member’s dogs and cats on several occasions. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping litter boxes clean, always making sure they felt comfortable and well cared for while their owner was away. I’m responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m committed to providing safe and dependable care. As a college student, I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 AM–2 PM, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week. Outside of those hours and my part-time job, I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your pets. I plan my days carefully to ensure pets receive consistent care, attention, and timely feedings, so you can feel confident they’re in reliable hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they receive timely feedings, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping their space clean and tidy. I don’t currently have a pet of my own, so my home is a calm environment, and I’m able to accommodate small to medium-sized dogs. My goal is always to provide safe, attentive, and loving care.
About: Fur babies are family! They need love and patience. Growing up I had a Pekingese for 13 years and then a poodle mix for 12 years. So I learned at an early age the responsibility of caring for the family pet. My first adult pet was a mini lob rabbit which I had for 10 years. It had some medical issues in which required regular care from the local vet. A few years ago I was introduced to Great Danes and immediately fell in love! Zoe, my twelve year old Dane lived her best life. She went to parks, family gatherings, car rides, camping. She passed away last year at the age of 12 1/2. I am not ready for another pet just yet and now that I have some free time I would love to give others the sense of security by playing, loving and caring for their pet. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule. With that flexibility I have the opportunity to check on your pets or provide over night care with short notices. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for your pet to lay in the sun, run, stretch and play! For over night stays a crate might be beneficial depending on your pets behavior and comfort. For day to day visits I will respect your property and pet and follow your guidelines to ensure our pet friendly visit is successful.
“Elizabeth was such a godsend! She took great care of our two pugs! She provided several pictures of our pugs while we were away. I find her to be reliable and very good at communicating, will book again! Thank you, Elizabeth!”
“I was down to the wire needing a last minute sitter for my pups. It was my first experience with Rover so I was very nervous trusting someone I. Just met with my home and dogs. Ngina was sweet and eased my mind by staying communicative and sending pictures often. I would definitely book again.”
About: I have owned pets my whole life. Caring for some that needed medications and extra level of care. When parents leave and pets are left behind, some tend to develop separation anxiety. I would be that person who helps those pets to stay calm and know someone is with them. I care for those that also have a lot of energy. Playing in the parks and running, playing fetch. My days are better when I see their smiley faces. I am available anytime in the week and weekends. Holidays vary, depending on family vacation. I don’t work full time right now. so let's set up a meet and greet; this will help identify if I'm a great fit for your pet's schedule. I do go to church on Sunday from 11 am to 1pm. I have three chihuahuas and I feed them at 7 am then we walk for 30 minutes and another meal at 5pm to 7pm every day. Baths once a week and grooming as well. I also used to pet sit for other friends and family so I do have some experience.
“Darian is a fantastic pet sitter. You will not have a care in the world if she is watching your pets. Her communication and care are top notch. We 100% recommend her and will use her again and again!”

Amanda was exceptional. There is no question that my cat, Ishta, was in tender, loving, and responsible hands. Amanda sent updates multiple times throughout each day including feedings, water checks, litter box, snacks, play, and wellbeing. These updates included multiple photos reinforcing the updates. She was so thorough. Moreover, the house was clean and tidy upon returning. She made the bed, the kitchen and bathroom were clean as I left it, etc. Lastly, she left an adorable little cat sponge that she used to clean Ishta’s dishes. It was a thoughtful touch. This was my first time using her services (3 consecutive overnight stays). I will unquestionably be using Amanda again. She was next level.
Angela did an excellent job caring for our two large dogs in our home, one of whom is elderly and requires extra attention. She was very communicative and took extra care of their needs while updating us along the way. We appreciated it and would recommend her for future bookings.
Alexis was able to take care of my kitties at the last minute. One of my cats is on a medication that he needs to take daily at the same time and Alexis was able to do it with no problem. Both of them seemed like they had a good time with her while I was away when I got back. Definitely will work with her in the future!
Dakota took the best care of our two boxers (and house!). He sent me photos daily and kept me in the loop that all was well. I have never not worried about our pets while we were gone, and I was able to focus on our sports competition fully while he was at our house. It was much-appreciated.
