“This was our first time having someone to come help with Bramble. Alyssa made it so easy not to worry. She handled everything everything with care and was so professional. Bramble has plenty of energy, but it was no issue.”

“Betsy did an excellent job caring for our big dog while we were out of state. It was so nice knowing our sweet guy was in such good hands, and able to stay in his own home. Betsy took lots of photos, and kept us updated every day. We will definitely be booking her in the future.”

About: Our family has had many pets over the past 45 years; horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, cats, and dogs. My love and care for animals is abundant! I’m retired, flexible, and available 7 days a week during the day or evening. I also may be available on holidays depending on family plans. I would care for your pet in your home according to your detailed instructions. The safety of your pet and developing a trusting relationship with you pet are both very important to me.
“Sumonthip did a wonderful job of taking care of Byxie. She has a great deal of experience working with dogs and cats when she worked at a veterinary clinic. She was very patient with Byxie and knew how to handle her if Byxie got too excited to see her and tried to jump on her. Please give Sumonthip a $7.00 tip.”

Every dog in our home gets the same respect, structure, and affection we gave to our own. We both work from home, so your dog will get constant attention and regular time outside — not just for potty breaks every couple of hours, but also for play and freedom to run around in our large, fenced yard and enjoy life to the fullest! 😊 We live on a peaceful piece of land with a spacious, secure fenced yard, and we spend a lot of time outdoors. Since we’re always nearby, your dog gets plenty of fresh air, attention, and calm companionship all day long. 🌳🐕 We even have a custom Dog Ramp off our back porch! We know how to take care of old dogs at this place and make sure they have an amazing time :)
“Abbie was amazing! We have two very needy cats and she took care of them with no issues while we were on a holiday vacation for an extended period of time. We left her very specific instructions and Abbie followed them precisely. She even went above and beyond to spend some extra time socializing our cats, who are a bit fearful of new people. Abbie was responsive, always right on time, and was friendly and sociable. It is evident she is passionate and cares deeply for all animals. You won’t go wrong booking her for your pet’s needs. 10/10 A++++”

“Mary was great! Not only did she come ahead for a meet and greet with our feral cat Buddy, but she cleaned up his mess after he broke open his cat food on the kitchen counter. I definitely recommend Mary for your Rover needs!”

About: Newly a post graduate college athlete, I am looking for way to stay active (like take your dog on a walk) while getting to meet new pets! I have watched dogs all throughout my college career when my athletic schedule allowed time for it. I also have grown up with dogs my entire life, as well as owning my own dog now. Being a college athlete has taught me good time management skills, as well as how to communicate effectively. I am currently an unemployed, so my hours are flexible and typically will work around my rover schedule. I have a few commitments on the weekends but will know about them ahead of time. I am confident walking any size dog (I have two larger dogs) and I am not scared of dogs based on size. I am also confident in playing with your pets.
About: I’ve grown up watching/playing with friends and family’s pets. I’m not able to have one of my own currently and would love to play with yours! I am able to come over early mornings during the week. My work schedule would allow me to also let them out around 4pm during the week. Weekends I am very flexible with a little notice. I love long walks and am comfortable going to parks with your dog if you are! I’m also able to crate them need be after all our fun!
“Katherine was so wonderful with Esco! She took excellent care of her by stopping in 3 times a day to make sure she had enough food and water, and she also cleaned the litter boxes and made Esco feel loved! I will call on Katherine again and again…I highly recommend her! ?”

About: I grew up owning and taking care of pets (cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, and more) and have taken care of dogs and cats for family and neighbors on and off for over 20 years. I work in tech and have a flexible schedule to ensure your pet's needs are met throughout the day. As a mom, I am used to waking up early or even in the middle of the night as needed. I live in a large house with no other pets (besides fish). My three children are very comfortable around animals. I also live on a preserve, which is perfect for long nature walks with a dog!
“Meaghan was great taking care of my puppy Rip while I was away! She made the effort to meet me the day prior so I felt comfortable with hiring through Rover. She sent me a thorough update on her visit along with photos of my happy dog! Will definitely hire again!”

About: Growing up we always had pets! From dogs and cats to birds and rabbits, I have had the pleasure of loving them all. Caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, you can count on me to understand your pet’s needs while you’re away. I currently work full-time from home, but have a flexible schedule that will allow me to stop by for check-ins, potty breaks, and walks while you’re away. I’m happy to go for walks around the neighborhood, play in the backyard, or cuddle as necessary on the couch. Fans of treats and puzzles will find I’m always up to sharing either. I’m happy to adapt to your pets needs if you share their preferences with me.
“Hadlie did a great job watching our two cats. She was very communicative the entire time she was caring for them and very professional. Hadlie also went above and beyond helping to water our Christmas tree and shovel part of the drive while we were away. We are so appreciative of her willingness to help in all these ways! Highly recommend!”

“Tara sat for my dear dog Maverick this morning so I could go to my annual wellness check, and she was excellent: timely, friendly, and competent. When she came to the door the first time, Maverick didn't bark, like he does at strangers, but almost whimpered, as if recognizing a friend! It felt like a minute but it might have been two before she was licking her hand. She's a wonderful young woman and I am so happy to have her assistance with my dear dog.”

“Autumn took amazing care of my cat Ruby! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, I would highly recommend her and would definitely have her take care of Ruby again!”
