Luie did a wonderful job pet sitting for my two cats. The photos and videos were great! I especially liked knowing my young cat Milo was getting playtime and having fun while I was away.

Olga is great! Ruth (my cat) warmed up to her very quickly. Olga is very communicative, provided consistent and timely updates, and was upfront about any scheduling or timing conflicts that we were able to work around without any issues. She was also able to administer daily medication for Ruth while we were away which is a huge plus! Highly recommend Olga for drop-ins and we will absolutely be repeat customers!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and currently have two under my care. I have experience watching puppies, cats, every size of dog, and even birds! I’m currently looking for dog care to be my part time job, so I’ve set aside a lot of time to provide as much attention possible to pet care. I have a crate trained dog my grandmothers dogs, and both of them have a great temperament. Im very respectful of peoples spaces and have no problem caring for dogs in environments they are comfortable in.

As always, Nicole did a fabulous job. This time we were international and because Nicole was so trustworthy, professional, and outstanding in shorter visits in the past, we felt totally comfortable asking her to care for our senior cats for two weeks—they’re a handful as two need prescription diets and one was on medication. Nicole took excellent care of them. I’d trust her any time.

Allison did a wonderful job caring for our 3 cats while we were away on our honeymoon. We had her come by 3 times, and each visit was thorough. She followed all of our instructions, cleaned the litter boxes, refilled food and water, vacuumed the room we keep the litter boxes in, and even took the trash out. It was great to come home to that area being nice and clean. Her updates and photos after each visit gave us peace of mind. She was polite, reliable, and made it easy for us to enjoy our trip without worrying. We’d definitely ask Allison to pet sit again in the future!

About: I was introduced to animals at a very early age, and have been caring for dogs and cats alike for most of my life; I now have cats and regularly care for farm animals as well. I am an animal lover through and through, and welcome any kind of cat. I know all about these animals, and looking forward to meeting yours! Mornings and afternoons are the best times for me to visit any cat. Between school and work, I am glad to feed and play with cats of all kinds. Cats can be fickle creatures. I always make sure to introduce myself upon entering their space, and then I find a place to sit so that they have space to meet the new visitor. Cats are very communicative, so after the initial greeting I let them take the lead and adjust my behavior to follow suit!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and birds. I have experience with newborn kittens and senior cats, including those with FIV and FIP, and have fostered numerous cats. I specialize in cats and rabbits, but also welcome dogs. I have a pomeranian mix and 3 cats who are my world. My care and experience will allow me to ensure your pet’s safety and happiness giving you an ease of mind while you are away. I currently work full time but work from home most days, therefore I am quite flexible. I do not work on the weekends either, so am available on Saturdays and Sundays. Please send me a guide of specific activities, feeding times, medication, and any other vital information your pet specifically needs so that I can follow this.

About: What sets me apart is the care and attention I give as if each pet were my own. I recently cared for two dogs for a full week, handling everything from daily walks and feeding to playtime and companionship. I went beyond basic care to make sure they felt truly safe, seen, and loved while their owners were away. I’m reliable, nurturing, and committed to creating a calm, happy environment pets can count on. As a stay at home mom/military spouse, I have a flexible and stable home environment that’s ideal for providing personalized, attentive pet care. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pet will never be left alone for long periods and I can maintain their routines with walks, meals, and playtime. Our military lifestyle has taught me to be adaptable, dependable, and prepared for anything, which translates into the care I give each animal. Pet care fits naturally into our calm, family oriented home where your pet will be treated like part of the family. I offer a safe, loving, and dependable environment for your pet. My home has a fully fenced patio with turf grass for supervised outdoor time, plus a large grassy field right behind it for extra play and potty breaks. We’re also just around the corner from a dog park, perfect for social dogs who love to run and explore. I’m home throughout the day, so your pet will never be alone for long and will get plenty of attention, love, and routine. I treat every animal like family to ensure they feel secure, happy, and right at home.

About: Hi, my name is Angelina! I’m 21 years old and I grew up in San Diego, California but currently live in Columbia, South Carolina. I love all animals and am offering dog walking and dog-sitting services! I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I have also dog-sat for neighbors since I was 13 years old and volunteered at my local animal shelter. Thus, I’m used to and know how to handle and care for 5 pound Chihuahuas and 100 pound mastiffs. In the near future, I hope to open up my own shelter to ensure more dogs and cats find the living homes they truly deserve! If you have a pet or two (or three) that need(s) some attention while you’re away at work, I’m your girl! I currently own a Pit Mix named Nyla Baby and two Guinea pigs named Winston and Wilbur. I can’t wait to meet your babies! :D I’m currently both working and attending school full-time and would like to go down to part time to focus more on personal goals and ambitions. Animals have always been a part of my life, and I would love to meet and help others spoil their babies’ rotten! I can walk your dog in your or my neighborhood, at any dog-friendly park, or anywhere else you’d like! As I stay in an apartment, I cannot house animals overnight but can watch them during the day for some hours! I can care for your pets at your home overnight, or for however long you need be!

Samantha was everything we could’ve hoped for and more. She was not only early for every visit, but she communicated with me when she would show up, when she would leave, sent pictures on every visit, and followed the requested schedule to a tee. This was our first time using this app and Samantha has certainly set the bar. There’s no question I would highly recommend Samantha for your pet sitting needs.

About: I have been caring for my own pets for 8 years as well as people in my neighborhoods pets for about 5 years. I absolutely love animals and treat them as if they were my own. I am currently in school and work part time on campus in the evenings but I can still make time to look after your lovely pets! I have hours to spare between classes and would definitely do my utmost to ensure we both can reach to an agreement on time! There is not much fencing in my apartment complex, however there is a decent amount of space and grass to move around if your pet loves to walk! There is also a lake that we could stroll around for a some fresh air and a view.

Allison did a wonderful job caring for our 3 cats while we were away on our honeymoon. We had her come by 3 times, and each visit was thorough. She followed all of our instructions, cleaned the litter boxes, refilled food and water, vacuumed the room we keep the litter boxes in, and even took the trash out. It was great to come home to that area being nice and clean. Her updates and photos after each visit gave us peace of mind. She was polite, reliable, and made it easy for us to enjoy our trip without worrying. We’d definitely ask Allison to pet sit again in the future!

Rachael is an excellent caregiver for my cat Martha. Martha is a rescue and is very skittish/nervous around people she doesn’t know and Rachael takes the time to sit with her to bond with her and make her feel more comfortable. She sends daily updates and photos and I can go away knowing Martha is being looked street by someone who knows what they are doing and who cares.

I structure my schedule to ensure I’m fully present during each visit, walk, or stay—whether it’s for a quick drop-in or a longer day of care. My part-time work allows me to offer reliable, consistent care without rushing. I love using my extra time to give pets the attention, play, and comfort they need when you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, house sitting, or boarding in my home, I make sure your pet’s routine is a priority in mine. 🏡 In My Home (Boarding & Daycare): Your pet will feel right at home here! I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they’ll be treated like family. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—including meal times, walks, playtime, and cuddle time. Pets have access to a comfortable sleeping area, indoor and outdoor play (if available), and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I make sure each pet feels calm, stimulated, and secure while you’re away. • Separate quiet space for downtime if needed • Clean water, regular potty breaks, and enrichment games • Daily updates with photos so you stay connected 🐕‍🦺 In Your Home (Drop-ins, Walks, House Sitting): When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s comfort zone. I stick to your instructions and routines to make everything feel familiar and stress-free for your furry friend. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, activity, and care while keeping your home neat and secure. • Feedings, fresh water, and medication (if needed) • Potty breaks or litter box maintenance • Playtime, belly rubs, and companionship • Light home care (mail, plants, lights, etc.) if house sitting

I used to live down the street from this wondering young girl. I have two German shepherds who love to walk and play but my knees started acting up. She came up one day when I was walking with them and helped me walk them. Very sweet. I would definitely recommend giving her a call for your dogs

Samantha was everything we could’ve hoped for and more. She was not only early for every visit, but she communicated with me when she would show up, when she would leave, sent pictures on every visit, and followed the requested schedule to a tee. This was our first time using this app and Samantha has certainly set the bar. There’s no question I would highly recommend Samantha for your pet sitting needs.

If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, look no further than Kianna T. She's watched my dog several times and I can honestly say I’ve never felt more at ease leaving my pup in someone else’s care. Kianna is incredibly responsible, attentive, and full of love for animals. She takes the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs, and her calm, friendly energy makes dogs instantly feel comfortable. Whether it's a quick walk or overnight care, Kianna goes above and beyond. You and your furry friend will be in amazing hands!

We used Carly on 2 different occasions for our 4 dogs. She was wonderful and punctual. All our dogs loved her...even the one who doesn't like most people. I highly recommend Carly!

About: I have been caring for my own pets for 8 years as well as people in my neighborhoods pets for about 5 years. I absolutely love animals and treat them as if they were my own. I am currently in school and work part time on campus in the evenings but I can still make time to look after your lovely pets! I have hours to spare between classes and would definitely do my utmost to ensure we both can reach to an agreement on time! There is not much fencing in my apartment complex, however there is a decent amount of space and grass to move around if your pet loves to walk! There is also a lake that we could stroll around for a some fresh air and a view.

Dover dog parents share their Rover experiences

This was my first time using Rover. At first I was a little bit nervous leaving our boys but Stacey made sure to ease our nerves. Not only did we LOVE Stacey but more importantly our dogs LOVED her!! She was friendly, caring, and very communicative. She took lots of videos and pictures of our dogs so that way we could still see them. It really truly showed how much she loves and cares for animals. Thank you for being trustworthy and dependable.

Elizabeth was very responsive throughout the process of scheduling, a pre-visit, and while we were away. She took videos, sent pictures, and a report for each visit. We had peace of mind leaving our pups with someone besides family. We will definitely request Elizabeth again.

Meagan was excellent with our big boy. He was attentive and very detailed with communication. Pictures were taken regularly and we were kept up to date promptly. Logan has made an awesome friend and he will definitely love to see her again!
