“Vivi was amazing with my girl! It was a last minute booking due to medical reasons and Vivi worked it out. I recorded pictures and updates, which were greatly appreciated.”
“Andy did a great job helping Nate feel at home. Nate got snacks he likes and outside breaks that were on his schedule. Andy sent a lot of updates with pictures. Besides the cute pictures, Andy sent me a picture that showed Nate feeling relaxed. Frankly, I was glad Nate still wanted to come home! Andy understands dogs, has an appreciation for the variety of normal dog behavior, and really does love dogs. His daughter also really loves dogs. Although I found Andy through Rover, a mutual friend confirmed that he’s a dog lover and would trust him with her dogs. Knowing that we had mutual friends was literally an answer to prayer. I would definitely trust this family with Nate again.”
“my dogs had a great time at Mariah’s house. They came back home so worn out from playing. I appreciated all the photos and videos she sent throughout their stay, showing them playing with other dogs. I would absolutely use Mariah again!”
“It was so nice to know that my dog was well taken care of and being spoiled! I received many updates and photos. I will definitely have Casey watch our dog anytime we are out of town.”
About: While I may be new to Rover, I'm definitely not new to caring for animals. I've been around pets my entire life and truly consider them part of the family. I currently have two beloved fur babies of my own, and I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your pets when you can't be there. Whether it's a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I'll treat your pets like my own-with patience, love and attention to their unique needs and routines. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to keeping your pets happy, healthy and safe while you're away! Let's set up a meet-and-greet-I'd love to get to know you and your furry family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and it is something I prioritize. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and timely care. Pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. For walks, I make sure your pet is secured-checking collars, harnesses, and leashes. I stay alert to our surroundings to avoid any stressful or unsafe situations. Your pet will get my full attention!
About: My name is Amber and I have been volunteering at adoption events for local rescues and dog/house/farm sitting for 10+ years. I currently own an active heeler/collie mix that I adopted from the Humane Foundation in 2023. I registered her with the AKC Canine Partners Program and we successfully completed the STAR Puppy program and earned a title in scent work. I have experience working with all sizes and breeds of dogs and cats, whether they are seniors or have special needs. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to working with you! I currently work as an office manager for a 92-acre thoroughbred farm in Lexington. My schedule is flexible and I work about 40 hours a week. The farm is dog friendly and I bring my own dog to run around every day. It’s great exercise and they always sleep so well at the end of the day. Your pet's safety is my biggest priority! I treat your pets with the same quality care and concern that I use with my own animals. Your pets will be closely monitored. I know how important these four legged friends are to our families!
“Candice was an amazing sitter. From the start she was quick to respond and answer any questions we had to put us as ease. We did a meet and greet and immediately felt like she was a perfect fit. Our dogs warmed right up to her. Our entire trip she sent us photos and video updates without being asked to do so and we loved every second of it. We will definitely use Candice again anytime we need a sitter! Even as excited as our dogs were to see us, they still went over to say goodbye to Candice which is very indicative that she took great care of them and made such a strong connection with them.”
“Tania was a great host for our pup, Kirk. She sent daily updates and pictures, and was incredibly easy to reach if I needed to contact her. Kirk had such a good time with Tania- we will definitely be reaching out to her the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Kath & Jordan were so great!! This was my first time booking with Rover and they made the process so easy with almost immediate responses and lots of pictures! They made me feel very comfortable leaving my pup with them, and she came home worn out after having the best time! I would definitely recommend them!!!”
“Ann, was awesome. She was able to accommodate my last minute request. She also met me and picked up Charly. She sent some regular updates and even took some great pictures of Charly.”
“Visiting town and needed a last minute sitter. Amanda was excellent and Felix had the best time. Got cute photo updates the whole time. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Alex and Martha are great! Communication is excellent. They spent a lot of time with our dog and she had a blast playing with their dog. We were worried about leaving her with a sitter for the first time but we had absolutely no issues at all. Will definitely use them again for our next trip!”
“Stacey did an awesome job watching our 2 dogs again. We have used her several times and she never disappoints. She always sends us updates on how they are doing and pics throughout their stay. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Super sitter. My dog was with Dana for two weeks and was taken care of very well. Dana was very attentive to our needs as well as our dogs. Thanks Dana”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter Javiera! She was incredibly attentive and kept us updated throughout our vacation with regular messages and adorable pictures of our pup. It truly put our minds at ease knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We’ll definitely be using Javiera again, highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”
“Ava did a phenomenal job caring for my two pups, Trooper & Shaiya. We scheduled a meet and greet the evening before boarding and Ava kindly came to my residence to meet the dogs and ensure everything would work well with her dog as well. My dogs are young (8 and 6 months), and have a lot of play energy. Ava did a great job caring for them and provided me with pictures/videos along the way. Given her success with this challenge, I'm highly confident she will take excellent care of your dog as well! 10/10 recommend!”

Douglas Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Guadalupe is a Dog-Sitting Superstar! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Guadalupe! She took care of my fur baby, ChiLo, for the entire weekend, and I am beyond impressed with the love, attention, and care she gave him. From the moment we dropped ChiLo off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in the best hands possible. Guadalupe treated ChiLo like family—he wasn’t just being watched, he was being loved. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the weekend, which totally made my day every time. I could see how happy and comfortable he was in every picture—tail wagging, belly up, completely relaxed! When I picked him up, ChiLo was calm, clean, and clearly had an amazing time. It honestly felt like he had been on his own little vacation! Guadalupe went above and beyond, and it showed in every detail. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, kind, attentive, and genuinely loves animals, look no further. Guadalupe is a rare gem, and ChiLo and I are so lucky to have found her. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you, Guadalupe! 💛🐶

Virginia was great to work with! It was the first time that Leo, our dog, spent a night away from home, and Virginia was very kind and responsive to his needs. Leo is an energetic working breed dog, and she made sure he had a lot of fun and exercise. She communicated with us frequently and sent us lots of updates and pictures, which we appreciated and eased any worries we had. We could tell that Leo enjoyed his time with Virginia!
