“Giovanny was awesome! He was kind, respectful and communicative. He was great with our pup. He followed our instructions and our pup loved him. We were even running late to get back home on time and Gio stayed until we returned. Highly recommend!”
“Had a great experience with Brendan for our first time with Rover. He was easy to coordinate with, patient and kind with our dog, and was very communicative while watching her!”
“Cassandra is a GEM. She arrived early for both our meet and greet and our first booking. My dog who’s an anxious guy and warmed to Cassandra immediately. Asked great questions and played with all Sammy’s puzzle tools. Can’t wait to book with Cassandra in the future! :) Thank you.”
“Cloe saved my trip when my original sitter plans backed out days before. She’s super quick to respond and I felt really confident in her care for Odin in my home while I was away. My mind was at ease.”
“Lauren is amazing! She stayed at our house with our dog and two cats for eight days. She truly loves and cares for animals, she was communicative, detailed and left our house in perfect condition.”
“Jordan did an excellent job watching our pup! We initially booked her for one day of house-sitting, but when our plans changed and we needed a second day, Jordan was ready to help us. We set up a meet and greet and Jordan was very communicative during the booking process. Throughout her sitting days, she kept us updated with texts and pictures of our pup and even did some household cleaning like doing some dishes and taking out the trash! We were impressed by Jordan's attention to detail and care for our pup, and we highly recommend her.”
“Joel is a great pet and house sitter! He has taken care of our 98# Bernedoodle Ollie and 4 cats multiple times. He sent pictures almost every day, and even took one of our cats in for his blood draw and gave him medicine.”
“Kelsi is great! She stayed at my home with my pup all day while I was out of town. She sent me updates and pictures of my pup which I really appreciated. She did great following his routine and accommodating to my pups behaviors. Overall Kelsi is kind and caring and I’m hoping to book her again soon!”
“Cathy is amazing! We were so happy with the care and attention she gave our two dogs and cat. She provided lots of check in pictures, all of our animals were very comfortable with her and immediately became her best friends! Thank you for a wonderful stress free time away from our babies 💕💕”
About: I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my determination, admiration, and respect for all. I take all comments and concerns as a growing opportunity for my own experience and also to better the experience of your pets. I work graveyard 5 days a week, and I find myself wanting to detach and find comfort in another opportunity as well as keeping my original job. I am good with communication and will always find a way to work around my schedule, compromise, while also taking consideration of the owners schedule. I will first make sure your pet is comfortable with me in their presence and asking the owners about their personality and what the pets routine is throughout the day/night. I am a list person and will always make sure to check all the boxes as needed. While also developing a kind friendship with your pet.
“Jackson was amazing with our two dogs! They loved him. He was prepared, attentive, and easy to work with. I highly recommend him. He took great care of both of them while we were gone.”
“Bridget was perfect and made us feel so comfortable, knowing our Great Dane was in such caring and attentive hands while we were away. She followed our instructions to a T, was punctual, and very responsive. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I have experience with walking, boarding, sitting, training, grooming and more. Though the majority of my professional experience revolves around dog walking, watching, and training, I also am very familiar and fond of cats. Currently I have one senior Shih Tzu named Marcus, he’s been with me since he was 6 weeks old and is now turning 13 in August. The love and devotion I have for my pup is the same I have for every animal I encounter, I am very passionate about providing the same level of care Marcus receives to each pet I am trusted with. Currently I work hybrid remote and on site as an interior designer. My flexible schedule allows plenty of time to service my fellow pet parents! Pets are allowed to roam freely in my home but I am happy to accommodate crate trained animals as well. My small dog loves company, he is very playful and friendly. As for sittings at my clients homes I follow all instructions thoroughly ensuring that your pet stays at ease, on schedule and full of happiness until your return.
“Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..”
“Kate took great care of our four pups while we were away! All of their needs were met and she spent a lot of time hanging with them too. Came home to a happy family ? thanks, Kate!”
“Nicolas stayed at our house and look care of our 70 pound, reactive, German shepherd, Danny and did such an incredible job. He sent us videos and photos throughout his stay and always kept us updated on how Danny was doing. We’ve used serveral rover’s in the past and Nicolas is by far the most attentive and professional Rover we’ve ever had. I can’t recommend Nicolas enough, he was a 10/10 hire.”
About: I have had years of experience with multiple animals, I've owned many over the years and care for them greatly. I have patience and dedication when it comes to caring for animals, I had wanted to go into vet med for years. I am currently between jobs while I try starting classes. I have good transportation and reliable time off so I am available and earnest to work! I am very attentive and I notice small details. I will ensure the care is completed to the levels expected of me if not exceeding. I have a lot of respect for animals and their needs and communicate effectively in situations.

Elizabeth did an amazing job! This is the first time I’ve had a pet sitter. My cat had a wound and a cone and no one except my mom has ever watched my dog. So, I was a little nervous. But, Elizabeth’s sweet spirit put me at ease. She sent me pictures of my cat’s wound so I could see the progress and pictures of my dog when she walked him. She also sent additional periodic pictures and gave me updates. Elizabeth was very thorough and truly cared about doing the best job possible. My house was immaculate when I came home. Elizabeth truly went above and beyond and I’m so grateful for her!
We booked Brendan for our first long-term rover sitting and had a great experience! Our slightly neurotic and anxious dog was at ease with him in our home and it was so nice to know she was in good hands while we were away! We got lots of pictures daily and had great communication while we were away thanks to his quick response time. Our dog usually doesn't eat for a day after we leave, but I know she felt happy and safe with him because she never skipped a meal while she was with Brendan! Overall, our house sitting was a great experience and we'll definitely be recommending Brendan to our fellow pet parents 🙂↕️
Giovanny has been the most communicative sitter we’ve had so far on Rover! He was great with sending updates and sharing pictures of our dogs pretty much everyday day. He was also super reliable with our dog’s medication which is critical for his comfort. Our WiFi went down the day we left and all our security cameras went offline- Giovanny was kind enough to help us troubleshoot at the modem so we could get them back online.! I felt there was some opportunity with tidiness but nothing outside of what is acceptable. I do think he was very respectful and responsible with our home - we have already rebooked him for our next trip!
Kate was great with our senior dog. He has not been left with a dog sitter for over a year and I was worried about him being anxious. Kate was patient with him and took great care of him. Her communication is great and I would definitely recommend her. I would love to have her watch Winston again!
Delanea took great care of my senior dog, Bella, who has several age-related health issues and requires extra attention. She was punctual, communicative, and kept the house clean throughout her stay. Most importantly, Bella seemed happy, comfortable, and very relaxed when I returned home, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Caring for a senior dog can be challenging, and I appreciate the time and attention Delanea gave her. Thank you for helping care for my sweet girl.
Joel was( great! He was responsive, communicative, and thoughtful with us humans. Most important, he was great with our silly pup. He also took good care of our home. We were able to have a great getaway because we knew our pet and our home were in good hands.
Jonathan was incredible. We booked him the week of using Rover and he stayed in our home and watched our two golden doodles that are four years old. He walked the girls multiple times a day and made sure that they were fed. It was very comforting to have someone staying in our home being with our dogs knowing that they had someone was very comforting. We are already looking to book Jonathan for our trip in October and would be happy to recommend him for any owner owners. He kept the home clean and tidy and sent us lots of cute photos!!
Holly was great!! My cat requires twice daily medication and right before my trip decided that he wasn’t going to eat it in a treat anymore…If you’re ever had to medicate a cat that doesn’t want medication, you know it’s no easy task! Holly was amazing with troubleshooting and trying to make it a positive experience for him. She left our house even better than we left it. I would highly recommend!
