“Tiana was really wonderful. This was the first time we had booked with her for a house sitting and pet sitting. She was professional, kind, very communicative and really took great care of our babies. She sent photos, videos and updates regularly in just 24 hours. She proactively brought in our mail. Our home and our 3 pets were very well cared for. We most certainly will book with her again and encourage you to do the same!”

“Lynn was a godsend for my family and took amazing and very loving care of our very active golden doodle. I would not hesitate to rebook her again. She’s very trustworthy, communicative and left the house in tip top condition. She’s so personable that I can see her becoming my friend.”

“Joy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! This was our first time having a dog sitter come to our home, and Joy made the experience so comfortable and stress-free. I could tell right away that Skye was treated with so much care and love. Joy kept us updated, took great care of her during walks, and was very attentive and thoughtful. We felt completely at ease knowing Skye was in such good hands. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🥰🐾”

“Kaili was great! She watched our two large dogs for two nights at our home, and we couldn’t have been happier. Our dogs have a lot of energy and definitely come with their own quirks, but she handled them so well. She kept us updated throughout her stay, was very respectful of our home, and left everything clean and tidy. We would absolutely book with her again. 5/5 stars!”


About: Experienced dog handler and bather while in training to become a groomer! I am experienced with dog behavior, medication administration and overnight shifts. I have a calm approach with all dogs! I love the big softies with all my heart and the little guys never fail to steal my heart. Every dog amazes me with their intelligence! I have also successfully trained a German shepherd with my family and I would be happy to talk about giving your pups a bath while sitting. I currently work as a bather (on my way to grooming academy next month!) and I would love to house sit on the side (overnights and weekends mostly) and as an added bonus I can give your pawesome pets a bubbly bath during house sitting! I will always come with a doggy first aid kit and knowledge of dog/pack behavior, and I have been trained to break up dog fights in the event of any instances out in public or at home.
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Stephanie! From the very first meeting, she made us all feel so comfortable. She is truly a dog person who goes above and beyond for every pup in her care. We have two dogs with very different needs: one is reactive, and the other has ongoing medical requirements. Finding someone we trust with both of them felt daunting but Stephanie came in with calmness, confidence, and knowledge, knowing exactly how to approach our reactive dog and handling our other pup's medical needs with skill and care. Stephanie was wonderful at keeping me in the loop and made it obvious that our dogs' comfort and wellbeing were her top priority. We feel so incredibly lucky to have found her and will asolutely be booking with her again. If you have dogs with special needs, look no further!”

“Estela was very professional and friendly towards our dog. Somehow our dog instantly bonded with her and even though he has separation anxiety, with Estela he was quite comfortable and calm. I would like to request her service again.”

About: I’ve taken care of my friends and families dogs for years and absolutely love doing so. Everything from overnights in your home to drop ins for walks and potty breaks, your best friend is in good hands My schedule is very flexible and I am available to take care of your best friend at very short notice. I pride myself on being dependable and caring. I appreciate knowing all of the details about your best friend. What is their temperament, do they like long walks or snuggles? Is your cat playful or shy? Every detail helps me take the absolute best care of your best friend.
About: Hi, I’m Ruth! Dogs have always been my thing. I’m the person who ends up talking to the dog at the party before I talk to the people. 😂 I have over 12 years of experience caring for pets and have worked with everything from energetic puppies to reactive dogs who need a patient and confident handler. I believe every walk should be more than just a potty break—it’s exercise, enrichment, and quality time. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality, and I take pride in creating a safe, fun, and trustworthy experience for both pets and their owners. I fall in love with every dog I meet, and yours will be no exception. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends. I do my best to accommodate each pet parent’s needs while making sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. currently provide care in my clients’ homes and neighborhoods rather than my own. I understand that many dogs feel most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I’m happy to come to you. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and needs. I’ll keep you updated along the way so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“My Kittens Sushi and Orion warmed up to Bri and were happy to have her company. She was great in being understanding of their personalities and routine as well as the logistics of their environment. Great communication and photos from her while I was on my trip. Would like to book her again. Thanks again Bri!”

About: For as long as I can remember, I have loved animals. I have always had at least one pet my entire life and I wouldn’t have had it any other way! During the beginning of covid, I started caring for other pets than my own and ever since, I have been pet sitting for friends and family. Looking back to my first pet care experiences, I got asked to care for my co-worker’s pets after knowing them for only a few weeks and I was, at first, a little surprised. Although in reflection, I am proud to say that I think my genuine love for animals can be sensed from the beginning. Caring for pets has never seemed difficult or like a job to me, so allow me to step in and make your life easier! I’m not in school for the time being so I am a bit more flexible but for now, a consistent routine or something for just a vacation would be more ideal as I try to figure out my summer schedule. I am always open for ideas or communicating though! I would love to hear the best way to care for your pet! I am used to animals that need medication or have special needs so I am able to suite your pets needs however they may need.
“Denise was an absolute gem as our dog and cat sitter over the weekend! Our animals were calm and visibly happy in her care. Denise's punctuality was impressive, and she left our house clean and tidy. We are beyond pleased with her services and will definitely choose her again in the future. She's a true professional and a delight to work with!”


About: Your dog’s vacation starts when you leave! I’ve been my family’s designated dog sitter for the past 8 years—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ve cared for my grandma’s Maltese while she’s spent months in Mexico, and I’ve also loved taking care of my sister’s German Shepherd and Goldendoodle. Big or small, fluffy or goofy, I treat every dog like family (because that’s exactly what they are). Expect lots of love, playtime, and a few extra compliments. Fair warning though…your dog might come back with a new favorite human 🙌 Currently in between jobs so definitely don’t mind spending my free time with dogs. Could do part time or full time if needed right now. I’m big on cleanliness indoors or outdoors, fitness/fun activities since I’m a fit person myself, and just enjoying quality time with any dogs
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life, including caring for cats and dogs. I’ve helped care for family dogs and raised my own cat, Salem, since he was a kitten. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, playtime, cleaning, giving attention, and creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets. I treat every animal with the same patience, love, and care I give my own. I am currently home for the summer with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I can provide regular check-ins, playtime, feeding routines, and companionship while making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I prioritize safety, patience, and creating a comfortable environment for every pet I care for. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, respect their home and routines, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and receiving loving care.
About: Hello! I recently lost my 14 yr old dachshund and 14 yr old shih tzu and am taking a step to share my time and space with new fur friends! Currently working from home 2-3 days per week and changes weekly. Open to coordinating schedules to align to what’s best for you and your fur baby. I have a fenced in yard with no other animals in or around us. I had my 2 dogs for 14 years and am comfortable with most anything your pet will need. Medicine, exercise, crating
“I always reach out to Yumi first to see if she is available to care for Kento. She has looked after him multiple times and consistently gives me complete peace of mind. Yumi is prompt in her communication, punctual, clean, caring, and always transparent. She often goes the extra mile in ways I don’t even think to ask, which speaks to her conscientiousness and attention to detail. I trust her so fully that I sometimes realize I haven’t checked in as much as I normally would—because I know Kento is in excellent hands. The videos and photos she sends reassure me that Kento is not only being cared for, but truly understood. She pays close attention to his spirit and mood and communicates with him in a way that is both thoughtful and intuitive. Without hesitation, Yumi is my go-to sitter whenever she is available, and I highly recommend her to any family seeking someone reliable, caring, and genuinely invested in animals well-being.”

“Olivia took good care of our dog and our home. She was patient for the first few days because our dog was a bit anxious. After that everything was normal and Rani seemed quite happy to be home with her. Olivia had also left the home clean. She had mopped the areas where Rani stayed, washed sheets and collected the mail. Thank you Olivia. I highly recommend her.”

About: What sets me apart is my strong focus on safety, consistency, and personalized care. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—every pet has different needs, and I make sure to follow their routine closely so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I’m very attentive to behavior and can quickly spot changes that might indicate discomfort or illness. I also have experience working with puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I reinforce basic training like potty routines, leash manners, and positive behavior. With senior pets, I’m patient and gentle, making sure they’re comfortable, keeping up with medications if needed, and adjusting activity levels to suit them. Communication is another area where I stand out—I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed check-ins so owners always know their pet is safe and well cared for. Overall, I aim to give pets a calm, structured, and safe environment while giving owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I schedule time for feeding, fresh water, exercise, and one-on-one attention to make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I plan my day around their needs, including walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions like medications or training. Consistency, communication, and attention to detail. I track feeding, bathroom habits, and any unusual behavior. I make sure pets get enough interaction and mental stimulation. Lots and lots of love and attention. Safety is always my main priority as well. I provide daily updates of pet/care with video/photos.

Tiana took care of our senior German Shepherd, Tempo, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Tempo is 12 and on a heart medication schedule that has to be followed closely, so leaving him while we traveled was not something we took lightly. Tiana handled every dose on time, kept a close eye on how he was doing, and sent us regular updates with photos so we always knew he was okay. She was calm and gentle with him, and the house was in great shape when we got back. Coming home to a happy, comfortable dog was a huge relief. If you have an older pet or one with medical needs, Tiana is the person you want.
Elizabeth was AMAZING with our pets! My Maverick is not the easiest dog to come around as a stranger, but Elizabeth managed to establish a good rapport with him. She took notes during our first meet and greet which went a long way in giving us peace of mind while we were away. We came back to a spotless house, and she provided updates on the pets just the right amount… Not too often and not only when I asked. I am usually very nervous when I spend more than a few days away from the fur babies, but Elizabeth made it so easy to feel secure knowing my babies were in good hands. THANK YOU, Elizabeth! 10/10 will be booking again!

We couldn’t have asked for a more amazing pup sitter. Our dog, Kai, is on several medications and requires four small meals throughout the day. Trina made sure I was updated on his food intake and overall well‑being, which is especially important given his medical needs. She even sent pictures and videos for every meal, along with updates on his daily activities. Her care gave me true peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found Trina on Rover... especially since she lives just a couple of blocks away, making everything even easier. She was exceptionally caring, loving, patient, trustworthy, and respectful of our home as if it were her own. No words can express how thankful I am for her. She is absolutely amazing and looking forward to her services again in the future. :)

Austin is a very enthusiastic person for pet caring. He communicates very active for usual or unusual discoveries and very experienced in providing good support for our lovely furry family member when we were not home. Our dog loves him and you can feel his great passion when interacting with our dog.

Sookie had a great time with Catherine! Catherine was kind, professional, and followed our care instructions for Sookie to the tea. She sent lots of photos and videos that eased our minds while we were away. We will be booking with her again soon! Thank you Catherine!

Savannah has been such a blessing to our family. For the first time ever, I’ve felt comfortable leaving my 16 year old dog with someone and go on a trip with my entire family. I know my dog is well taken care of with Savannah. She is loving and caring which puts my dog at ease and she is on top of communication, putting me at ease. Thank you for everything!

Tracy is an amazing pet sitter, her and her partner watched boba for a couple days while we went out of town. She was super responsive when we first reached out and set up a time to meet boba. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times. She was understanding of bobas quirks and patient with him. Highly recommend her!

Skylee was amazing!!! She was so sweet and caring with my cats and also extremely communicative with me the whole time. I felt super comfortable while she watched them and would highly recommend. She was very detail oriented too and knew exactly what my kitties needed while I was gone!

Vanessa was a wonderful house and pet sitter! She asked all the right questions and took such good care of our dog while we were gone. Our Paisley has a hard time being left alone and she was very considerate of that and even went the extra mile to get her to eat when she was being finicky. We received plenty of updates and she left our house looking as it was when we left. We'd book her again and our dog Paisley absolutely loved her! The cat Leela loved her too and she's pretty aloof!

Paola was right on time to pick up my puppy and sent me regular updates of everything. She accommodated my weird schedule and did it last minute with only one day notice. My puppy is only 6 months and has TONS of energy. Everything was fine in my home and she even cleaned up my puppy’s messes from being left overnight in the house..I. Would definitely use her services again.
