“Ice people who really love your furry and even feathered babies. We appreciated the photos and the exercise that the dogs got. Also constant updates if you ask for them. 5 star performance!”
“Alexis was a good sitter who took great care of our dogs and home while we were away. We are very appreciative that she was willing to drive an hour to come here. Would definitely choose her again!”
“Allysa was wonderful! She spent a weekend taking care of my dog and two cats and sent pictures of all 3 at least twice a day with very detailed updates. Two of them were on medication and she had no problems getting them to take their pills. I will definitely be booking with Allysa next time I need someone to watch my pets.”
“Brenda is always so kind and attentive to my Scout. He’s been staying with her every time I have to go out of town for almost a year now. She keeps me updated on him and is very considerate in her care. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Arianna house-sat for me, my dog, and my cat while I was out of town for work. The animals seemed to love her, including my rather aloof cat (which says a lot). She communicated regularly and sent lots of pictures of my boys. 100% would rebook any time!”
“Devin, is amazing! He is always arriving a little before the sitting and making sure he is aware of all of my dogs needs and normal routine. He is also always providing updates on how my dog is doing. We are always very lucky to have him watch our dog!”
About: I have been a pet owner for over 20 years. When I was in college I became the go to pet sitter to watch my friends and family pets for years. Because I am a bit of a stronger person, my friends know that I can handle some of their bigger dogs tugging on the leash. Also, with my beard, dogs think I am one of them. I am currently a remote worker and I can take as much time as I need to take care, play, walk, feed or whatever the client needs. Because I am a big lug myself, I allow pets to have fun and be happy loving animals. I give off alpha dog energy and dogs will understand the deep serious tone in my voice, but will also respect me after I give them lots of love and treats.
“Sophie did a fantastic job watching our pups while we were on vacation. She really went above and beyond to ensure our home and our fur babies were taken care of. We would gladly have her back anytime!”
“Scotti was incredible with our dogs. We booked her for a overnight stay and she kept our two big dogs calm and happy, we came home and they were so well behaved and happy. We will be booking with Scotti any chance I can!”

About: When I think of dogs & cats , I think of them as humans and part of my family. I have had animals all my life and treat them very well. I currently have a Maine Coon cat, named Charlie. Growing up, I walked the neighborhood dogs and helped take care of the neighbors cats also. I took care of dogs all breeds, sizes and personalities. I can do drop-in visits before work, on my lunch hour, and after work. I can also do over night visits if your pup loves company! 🐶💙 I do work full-time during the week, but I always run home on lunch ( 1 hour long) to let dogs out, eat, and run around. I have a large fenced in back yard to keep your fur babies happy while they are with me. When I am not home, I do keep them in the crate. If I am house sitting/doing drop in visits, I run out on lunch to guarantee they get let out 3 times a day.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have hands-on experience with daily feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ pets while they’re out of town, making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their happiness and well-being. As a teacher, my schedule allows me to be home in the evenings and on weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive and consistent pet care. I’m able to stick closely to feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and any special routines your pet needs. Because my time outside of school is flexible and dependable, I can give your pet the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I provide loving, hands-on care tailored to each pet’s needs. At home, I have two cats and a dog, so I’m very familiar with balancing playtime, exercise, and daily routines. I make sure my pets get plenty of attention and enrichment through play, and I walk my dog multiple times a day to keep him happy and healthy. I bring the same level of care, patience, and dedication to every pet I look after, treating them as if they were my own.
About: I provide dependable, personalized care that’s tailored to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your pup is playful, or needing a slower pace, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I also make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your time away easier for both you and your dog by creating a caring, reliable, and attentive experience from start to finish. I am currently out of school for the summer. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to rather than squeezing in between other responsibilities. I also build flexibility into my week to accommodate different energy levels and care needs whether that means extra walks or sticking closely to a medication or feeding schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, crate routines, and any house rules the pet is already used to.

And a lot of pets prefer their own home where they feel safe and are used to their routine

Dunbar pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had such a great experience with Destiny and Ben as our house and cat sitters through Rover! They were incredibly kind, thorough, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. They sent thoughtful updates while we were away, which made such a difference and gave us so much peace of mind. It’s not easy leaving your home and pets, but they made us feel completely comfortable knowing everything was in such good hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a house just as we left it. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Colleen! She stayed at our home with our dogs for an entire week while we were on vacation, and from start to finish she was absolutely phenomenal. Our dogs adored her — it was clear right away how comfortable, happy, and loved they were in her care. To the point that they seemed unfazed when we returned as if to say, “we had a great time while you guys were gone!” 🤣🤣!!! Colleen went above and beyond by sending us tons of great pictures and videos throughout the week, which gave us so much peace of mind and honestly made us smile every day we were away. As if that wasn’t enough, she completely melted our hearts by bringing Christmas presents for our dogs to give them before she left. That level of thoughtfulness and genuine care is rare and meant so much to us. Colleen treated our home and our dogs as if they were her own, and we came back to happy pups and a house just as we left it. We would trust her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone looking for a truly exceptional dogsitter. Thank you, Colleen — you are amazing! 🐾🎄💛
