“Sarah has been a great addition to our home every time she watches our pup. We’ve used her many times, and trust her every time. She communicates great and treats our dog like her own. He is always happy when we get home!! Thankful for Sarah when she stays with our dog.”
“Kylie did a great job! The boys were well taken of care of and communication was great. Can’t thank her enough for helping us on short notice.”
“Angelee is the best! She made our first time leaving our dog, Charlie, with a sitter a breeze and she will be our first call for all future pet sitting needs! We came home to a spotless house (with a washed and made guest bed even!), received frequent updates while we were gone, and never once worried about Charlie while he was in her care. She is communicative, prompt, so friendly, and clearly loves animals. Angelee worked to keep Charlie’s routine and environment consistent while we were away. Charlie got lots of walks and playtime. He clearly loved Angelee as he was looking for her in our guest room after we got home! It is such a relief to find someone who you can trust with your pet and your home. Angelee goes above and beyond! Cannot recommend her highly enough!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs for over a decade. I am comfortable with all ages of animals and can administer medication, as needed. Comfortable walking a variety of sizes and ages with a collar or harness. Most of my dogsitting experience has been with senior dogs so I am happy to accommodate their special needs. I work full time but have a remote position, allowing for dog and cat sitting at guest’s house - and I’ll be home all day! I am also available for walks and drop ins. I will follow all instructions, as presented. Whatever your pet’s personal quirks may be, I’m ready to meet their needs. I am happy to maintain their normal routine.
“Misty was great and Luna was safe and secure, happy and healthy when I arrived home. Finding a dog sitter on Memorial Day seemed like an impossible request so imagine my surprise when she accepted, arrived and did a great job. I highly recommend her!”
“Emelyn was super great with our two pups! She was easy to get in touch with and the dogs loved her. She left things clean and organized and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years and have experience pet sitting for multiple families, including drop-in visits and overnight care. I’ve cared for cats regularly over several years, watched dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I also volunteer through Doggy Day Out at the shelter, where I help walk and socialize dogs, and I grew up with a family dog, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience incorporating caregiving and pet care into my daily routine and enjoy creating consistent schedules for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I am organized, dependable, and make it a priority to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. My schedule allows me to provide regular walks, check-ins, enrichment, and quality time, and I always work to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel at home. I spend a lot of time at home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress. I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, and receive plenty of attention, enrichment, playtime, and companionship. I prioritize safety by keeping doors and outdoor areas secure, being attentive during walks and potty breaks, and cleaning litter boxes as needed. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel informed, reassured, and connected while away.
“DeAnna was very responsive and easy to work with. Thanks for watching the pups! We have a couple more sits booked with her and it’s nice to know they will be cared for while I’m gone.”
“I booked Ariel for a week long house sitting while traveling for work and she was fantastic. Axel really took up with her. She took really good care of the pups, fish and robot lawnmower, and left the place as clean as it was when she got here. Will absolutely book again”
“Megan was absolutely incredible & we couldn’t have asked for a better rover. Super sweet and extremely polite, prompt and professional. We had absolutely no concerns with her caring for our girl while we were away. She was in great hands with Megan! Megan kept us updated with photos and daily check ins. She also left our apartment absolutely spotless. Will absolutely be reaching back out in the future next time we’re in need of a Rover!”
“Ashleigh was great with our Great Pyrenees! She took him on walks, sent us frequent updates and treated him very well. The house was clean when we came back as well! Highly recommend and will be booking again”
“Joni has been the best for our pup! Our dog loves all of the time spent with Joni. She has always been professional and communicative and has become our go to for watching our dog!!”
About: I grew up taking care of my family dogs and cats! I am a trustworthy source for many of my friends and family to rely on for checking in on their animals! I work part time so I will have tons of time to spend with your pets! I am available most evenings and mornings for boarding! I prioritize safety by following your home's security routines and staying vigilant during walks! I ensure your pet feels secure and loved in their own familiar environment while maintaining a clean and respectful presence in your home.
“Hannah was so great with Daisy! She followed all of the instructions we left and made sure to bond and make Daisy feel comfortable while my husband and I were gone all week on vacation. She provided us daily updates with pictures and was very communicative, which made it so much easier to be away from Daisy for a whole week. I would definitely recommend Hannah to anyone needing a gentle and attentive dog sitter!”
“Holly was wonderful with our 3 year old dog! She took great care of him, provided fantastic communication, and was extremely reliable. To top it all off, she left our home well taken care of. We highly recommend Holly.”
About: I was certified as a vet assistant at 17. Currently in Vet tech school & expected to graduate 2027. I have 2 friendly dogs of my own :) I am available on the weekends, I keep pets on a consistent schedule to ensure all of their needs are met including feeding, enrichment, & exercise. I treat every animal as if they’re my own. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable & happy. I follow the owner’s instructions and also giving them attention and care while they’re in my care.
About: I've been taking care of pets for about 5 years, and have cared for pets of my family, friends of my parents, and others who have reached out to me! My time in the summer is super flexible, and I'm willing to meet all of your pets' needs! Throughout the summer, I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule. I put my availability in two-weeks in advance, but only work about 5 to 6 hour shifts when I am scheduled. During the academic year, I take 3 classes on top of working part-time, so my schedule is more limited, but I am still able to take off if alerted two weeks in advance! In the past, I have only cared for pets in the clients' homes. I can assure you that as someone who loves my own family pets, very direction about your pet will be followed, as any rules you might have about your house, since I understand these two things are incredibly important to everyone.
About: We work from home full-time, which means your pup will get lots of supervision, attention, companionship, and cuddles throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. Dogs staying with us typically get up to two walks a day, usually 1–2.5 mile walks at nearby trails. If your pup enjoys walks and adventures, they’re welcome to join! We also make sure dogs have plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention depending on their personality and energy level. We genuinely love pets and try to make them feel like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, shy, energetic, or prefers a calmer environment, we do our best to adapt to their needs and routine. We're also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and we aim to create a safe, loving environment where both you and your pup feel comfortable. I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I take my dog on walks twice a day for 1-2.5 miles in the park and typically spend the rest of the day at home, treating your babies like my own. I have a fenced yard and live walking distance from a park with wooded trails. I have a friendly pup in my home who loves having friends to play with. I will care for your pets like my own!
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life. I have cared for senior animals when it got more difficult and puppies that needed round-the-clock care. I’ve also been trusted by family, neighbors, and friends to care for their homes and pets while they were away. I’m a recent college grad and have not yet found employment, so my schedule is wide open! I will be available Monday through Sunday at all hours. I do not offer boarding in my home, however I can supervise multiple dogs at once, walk dogs, follow specific feeding instructions, and respect the boundaries of your cat. I can also work with security systems and keep your home safe and neat.
Douglas Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kylie was great! She arrived right on time and was willing to stay a few minutes extra when we were running a bit late on our return. She followed my instructions exactly and made sure that Twyla was fed and taken out for a potty walk. I will certainly use her again when she’s available.
This was the second time Makenna has housesat for my dog. My girl is always happy and calm when I return home, which has not been the case with other sitters. Makenna is excellent at communicating and sending photos. She makes sure my girl gets lots of play and snuggles. Also, my house is always clean when I return. Poppy and I will definitely be relying on Makenna again!
Eric was great! He took great care of our snuggly beagle and our home. Chester was at ease with Eric and we could tell that he got all the treats and affection to which he is deservedly entitled. We will definitely ask Eric to sit for us again on our next trip.
I booked Ariel for a week long house sitting while traveling for work and she was fantastic. Axel really took up with her. She took really good care of the pups, fish and robot lawnmower, and left the place as clean as it was when she got here. Will absolutely book again
Alex & Martha have watched our 3 crazy pups for multiple trips and vacations now. They kept us updated with pictures every day and I felt I could actually relax because they were in good hands. By far our favorite go-to sitters. Thanks for being so good to our pups!!
Sarah was wonderful! She sent us updates with photos every day and really made us feel like our pups were in good hands. I wish I had done this years ago instead of using a kennel. We knew they were not only fed and sheltered, but they got pets and love and could relax in their own home without the anxiety of a bunch of other dogs barking around them. We have already booked her again!
If there were more stars, I’d give them to Melissa. Leaving my dog partner was hard. I was unsure it was the right decision to have someone I didn’t know, but Melissa is an angel. She was great! Multiple texts, pictures, and videos kept me in the loop. She gave him his meds twice a day. She left the house neat and clean. I’ll be having her back with no worries! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Delaney was incredible! She came for a meet and greet and was so sweet and our pups took right to her! She communicated and sent photos of her stay and even went above and beyond and cleaned up our insane backyard from toys and destroyed toys left from the snow storm. We are looking forward to having her back. Thank you so much! 5/5 highly recommend!!
