Chelsea was a fantastic rover for our dog! She was extremely responsive, punctual, and helped us several times on short notice! She also clearly cared for our dog and was super kind. Would recommend her to anyone!

Daphnay was amazing! She was always on time for twice daily check-ins. She played with Bleu as well as took him on runs. She is really reliable and very trustworthy. Can’t wait to book her again.

It was my first time using rover and I was looking for someone who truly understands dogs, and its Tamara! Tamara was a true blessing while I was away in Mexico. My dog isn’t usually quick to trust—he even tried to bite her when they first met—but she was so patient and kind with him. By the end of the week, he was waiting at the door for her, tail wagging, 30 minutes early. I could tell he really bonded with her. I’m so grateful and would absolutely have her watch him again.

About: I've had pets since I was 9. From 9 till now I've had cats, dogs, fishes, and guinea pigs. I have experience with dealing with pets that may have previously trauma issues also with pets that may need careful care like medince or special needs. Even pets that don't need extra care just pets that wants to have long walks or need a lot of play time . I am currently in school. So I will be working part time for Rover. Evening and nights works best for the weekdays and for the weekends I am open for anytime you need. For cats do have multiple cat bags if they need to brought to a appointment or any where else. And foot dogs if you don't have a leach I can get one but I would prefer for you to have leeches and rates of pets need to be taken out of the house .

About: Hi! My name is Laura and I am 31 years old. During the day I am a BCBA at an autism center. I’m hoping to care for and walk dogs after work to make some extra money. I live right across the street from a park and go on frequent walks/runs and would love to have a dog with me to do that with. I work from 9-4 during the week so I would be able to take the dog(s) on a walk in the morning and then play/walk them after work. On the weekends I will be able to spend to spend more time engaging and playing with them. I have a lot of experience with rover and watching my friends dogs. I will send you updates and photos daily with how everything is going!

This was Namira's second time watching my elderly dog, who added two pills since our last visit, and has been starting to struggle with joints. She was engaged and made sure to check in with me when he was potentially having a bad day so I could evaluate and I could feel confident he was in good hands once again.

I am always very nervous when I leave my furry girl alone. It was the first time we booked Qutress and she did it amazing. On a couple days did a great bond and my Kira is always scared to everyone, she really had the touch, the care and patience for her. Qutress is reliable, careful with all details and kind. I would repeat her service as much I need it.

Absolutely fantastic sitter for our four kitties! She went above and beyond. It’s very clear she’s putting her whole heart into taking care of the fur babies. She stayed with them not just to feed and water but to play and brush, even bringing her own toys! Would rebook in a heartbeat.

Maya took great care of both my indoor and outdoor cats while I was away. She was in regular communication with me about whether or not the cats were visible during her drop-ins, as well as how open they were to getting some rubs and TLC. She even brought my dumpsters back into my yard on trash day and made sure packages delivered to my home made it safely inside. Maya is a sweetheart and I absolutely plan on having her care for my babies for my next extended out of town trip!

We have been working with Ayla for a couple of years while she lived in Chicago, and we were so sad to learn she was moving home to PGH after graduation. Ayla is extremely reliable and such a wonderful pet sitter. She is very detail-oriented and prepared for every visit. She most recently cared for our cat (cranky) but also has experience with our dog (pittie), and they are both enamored with her. She truly got to know our pets, and her care for them exceeded our expectations. She always provided regular and consistent photos and updates, easing our minds while we were away. From drop-ins to house sitting, we always came home to happy and healthy pets and a clean apartment at that. There's no need to look any further for your go-to sitter because Ayla is it! We can't thank her enough!
