“Celeste was amazing. She connected with our pups (especially our trouble maker puppy 😀) and communicated frequently with us regarding how they were doing while we were away. Would definitely use her again to watch our pups.”

“Shea did a great job watching our dog and cat while we were out of town for almost a week. You can expect consistent updates and pictures with Shea! She was also respectful of our house. We would definitely rebook with Shea in the future!”

“Other than our miscommunication about the arrival time (it was our first time having Ryan stay with the kids) he took great care of our Big Easy & Winnie! Thank you 🩵”

“Outstanding. It is hard to find a person to trust with your home, but I give this individual five stars without reservation. Highly recommend.”

“Jaden is so amazing!! My dog Daisy loved her so much and I cannot wait to book again. Also my apartment was left so clean and I received a bunch of photos throughout my trip which really eased all of my anxiety. Would 10000% recommend Jaden!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind my whole life, with a special passion for large breeds. Growing up with my own large dogs and walking neighborhood dogs throughout high school and college has given me hands-on experience with all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with dogs — especially the big ones who need plenty of exercise and attention. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight sitting, or just some quality playtime, I’m committed to keeping your dog happy, safe, and well-cared for. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m available every day until 2pm, plus evenings and weekends for boarding, drop-ins, or walks. Whether you need morning playtime, midday check-ins, or full overnight stays, I can work around your schedule to keep your dog happy and well-cared for. I prioritize leash safety and secure handling on every walk. With years of experience, I’m confident walking large and even reactive dogs using proper techniques and equipment to keep everyone safe. Your pup will receive calm, attentive care in a supervised setting. I’m experienced with all sizes and personalities.
“I have two rescue dogs that I adopted and have always worried about leaving them with anyone other than family members. They are quite shy and nervous around strangers so I was very hesitant to try Rover.com. Rebecca met with us two times to get the know the girls before my trip. She was very sweet and relaxed and made the dogs feel as comfortable as possible before my trip. My home and dogs were very well taken care of and I feel like we gained a new friend. I will definitely request Rebecca for my next get away.”

“Christian is absolutely WONDERFUL! He’s such a pleasure - he’s kind and you can rest easily knowing he’ll treat your pup like they’re his own 🥹 He’s so polite and respectful and keeps in touch. I felt very comfortable with him and he and my pup are new best friends!!!”
“Carly provided an exceptional level of care, both of our elderly dog and our home. We didn’t have one worry while we traveled as she followed every request in a most conscientious manner. Our dog was so happy to have personalized home care from Carly, a true animal lover.”

“Hailey was so amazing with my baby Storm! I had to leave out of town last minute for the 4th of July and she quickly responded to my request! We met up the next day so she could meet Storm and she even brought her a toy 🥹🥹. When I was away she would update me daily and at multiple times throughout the day so I could be at ease. Storm has a lot of attachment anxiety and doesn’t like yo be alone so Hailey was very good about not leaving her! I 100% recommend her and will be rebooking her soon!”


About: I am a PhD student at the University of South Florida, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. Over the past five years while in graduate school, I have regularly house sat for several families and cared for a variety of breeds. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including young puppies and dogs that require medication. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with both your pet and your home. I have a 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer (high energy working breed) that my partner and I raised from puppyhood, so I am very familiar with high-energy, intelligent dogs that need plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment. Raising him has given me firsthand experience with puppy training, establishing routines, and all the challenges and rewards that come with energetic young dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I will do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pride myself on being responsible, communicative, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I have a pretty flexible schedule during the week outside of classes. I have lots of time to check in on animals and take them for walks. I am a very responsible and will ensure that your pet is safe, happy and healthy. I will be sure to give them lots of exercise and love!
“Jennifer was a godsend in a last minute booking for Bona! She did a great job communicating and keeping us up to date on how our dog was doing. 10/10 Would recommend Jennifer.”


“Erin was absolutely outstanding! She was arrived on time and was extremely communicative, sending us updates daily complete with adorable photos and videos of our babies. She even went out of her way to bathe our two big pups before we returned from our trip, stripped the guest bedroom sheets, and I’m pretty sure she vacuumed for us! One of the most stressful parts of retuning from a long trip is coming home to a dirty house and dirty puppers. She made the transition home seamless and couldn’t have taken better care of our two dogs and two kitties while we were out of town for 5 days! We will definitely be booking with Erin again for our next trip!! 😊”

“Met Angela through Rover, she is absolutely incredible, I was nervous leaving my senior dog, as he is typically at home or with close friends. She handled him with warmth, compassion and expertise. I came home to calm and happy dog. She skillfully handled my trip emergency definitively recommend her!”

I was very pleased with Christian! This was my first experience using a house sitter, but he was easy going, great with the dogs, and communicated well. In addition to that, he was very flexible when my plans had to change. Would use him again without hesitation.
We had a great experience! Rebecca stepped in at the last minute and took amazing care of our three dogs for two weeks on the first time using her. Communication was excellent, we received regular updates, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and loved. They became great friends with her pup pawprint as well. We came home to happy pups and couldn't be more grateful. Highly recommend!

Carolina went above and beyond! She did amazing with our three energetic herding dogs and they absolutely loved her. She sent tons of videos of her playing with them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also left the house in great shape, and we came home to three happy, content pups. Highly recommend her! We will definitely be contacting her again in the future. Thank you so much, Carolina!

Hope is the best! She house sat in our home for a 3-night stay and it was a fantastic experience working with her. She arrived early, handled our stubborn and blind senior dog with patience, and our home was in perfect condition when we got back into town. On top of all that, there was an unexpected A/C outage during her stay, which she never once complained about and she helped fix!. We are looking forward to working with her again soon.

We are so glad we found Julia & Eric. Communication was excellent throughout our time away, and we always felt informed and reassured. Loved all of the photos & video updates. Knowing Gracie was in good hands allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip. Will definitely be booking with them again!
