“Renee went above and beyond taking care of our dog, including leaving him rose petals on Valentine's day! She provided regular updates and was sure to snuggle up with him a ton while we were away! Thank you so much for the wonderful care!!”


“When we came home from our trip, everything was in order. Jennifer took really care of our animals and we’re very grateful for her help and look forward to using her services again for future endeavors.”

“Wonderful house and dog sitter! Wren was spoiled rotten and (while excited to see us) was happy as a clam when we arrived back. We got lots of updates, pictures and videos. Thank you!!!!”


“Ariel was wonderful from beginning at Meet & Greet to our return. Great communication, fantastic pictures. Lexi, Luna, Leia & Theta are healthy & happy - and our home is very clean! Our quick trip out of town was seamless & worry free. Highly recommend!”


“Tori is a great sitter for our senior pups. She takes great care of them, follows their complicated care instructions, and administers eye drops. She is a perfect houseguest, leaves the apartment in perfect condition, and even washes their meal bowls. If you’re considering her for dog walking or sitting, look no further!”

“Mya house sat for us over the holidays and was the perfect caretaker of the house and the 2 dogs. She sent lots of photos, communicated promptly and left the house in great condition. Our mini-Dachshund is a bit of a handful, but she did great with her. And, our suspicious older Corgi even warmed up to her. Thank you, Mya!”


“Daniel was great! Short notice availability. He was very accommodating with some minor last minute requests, and also when our relatives had to drop by a few times. Consistently sent (VERY adorable!) photos with a brief note/comment every day while we were on vacation. Was good about being communicative and responding to any questions as needed. House was left pretty clean when we came back. Highly recommend!!”


“Vanessa was great with my high need cat. She can administer meds without issue. She went above and beyond and stayed longer with my cat since my flight was getting in late. I highly recommend Vanessa!”


“Julia did an absolutely wonderful job house/pet sitting my 2 dogs while i was overseas. She was very thorough asking questions about the dogs care, was punctual and responsible, and left the house spotless. Felt very comfortable leaving her with the dogs, and would 100% book again.”


“We had Kylee stay at our house to take care of our two puppies on the weekend. She is very conscientious in her duties and responded to an issue by asking the on call vet for advice. We were extremely happy with her care.”



“Second time to have Alison house sitting and taking care of our cat. After our two-week trip abroad, we came back to a spick-span house and a happy and relaxed cat. We will continue to have her to be our sitter in the future, as long as she is available.”


“Toshiko spent about 5 days petsitting for Gunther. She kept me updated and was super responsive when I asked her about some last minute package deliveries. She sent me some photos of Gunther as well. She's an excellent sitter and Gunther's new best friend!”


“Korrey did a wonderful job taking care of our German Shepherd Quincy and hound mix Sydney while we were on vacation for a week. Sydney is a little skittish towards new people, but she warmed right up to Korrey - he has very calm energy. Korrey administered several medications for the dogs and also picked up the dog poop in the backyard. He followed all instructions, sent a few pictures, and I never had any issues getting in touch with him. I was nice to be on vacation and not have to worry about our pups at all!”


“Sjory was very communicative and professional. Mougli instantly warmed up to her at the meet and greet; he is usually shy around strangers, but I could tell he was immediately comfortable around Sjory. She sent many photos and updates throughout the day and left the house in great condition. Mougli is a senior dog with some special considerations due to kidney disease and arthritis and Sjory took great care of him. I would recommend Sjory to anyone looking for a house/dog sitter and would definitely have her back in the future.”


About: I have been taking care of various pets since I was 10 years old I have owned a variety of animals. I have experience caring for senior dogs smaller and ones who also have health concerns. I am currently in college but i am available every day to have your pet in my house or to come over to yours! Please contact me for more information regarding my schedule. I have a crate in my house if your dog needs it and we have baby crates to fence the house to keep your puppy if you have one out of certain areas. I am more than happy to adjust and accommodate your dog in any way that is best fit.

“Raven was an angel for my Lola — I didn’t have to worry at all despite being out of the country. She was proactive, calling our vet when she noticed something that concerned her while I was in another time zone. Very grateful for her dedication, and detailed updates! I’ll be hiring her services again very soon. Highly recommended!”



“Katie is so absolutely lovely, our dog Stega adored her. Katie did an incredible job getting Stega out of her shell and making her feel safe while we were out of town. Katie was responsive, respectful, knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, and Stega immediately took to her. Stega is not the easiest dog to win over, so we were very grateful that she had such a warm, playful, and approachable personality. Katie also took lots of pictures, which we loved. Excited to have her back next time we travel without our beloved pup!”


About: Hi there!! My name is Amy, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I was raised in a family that taught me to appreciate nature and respect all living creatures. Growing up around everything from snakes and frogs to dogs and cats helped me develop patience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds. Currently, I live with four sweet elderly Shih Tzus, so I’m very familiar with senior pet care, including slower-paced walks, medication routines, and extra TLC. I’ve also cared for two cats (Lulu and Fidgy) and a Sheltie named Sadie. I’ve worked with many dog breeds over the years including Schipperkes, American Eskimos, Siberian Huskies, Shelties, Chocolate Labs, Golden Retrievers, Chihuahuas, German Shepherds, Beagles, Corgis, Pugs, Poodles, Bulldogs, and more. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to ensure pets feel safe, calm, and understood. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel right at home while you’re away! I am typically available in the afternoons on weekdays. I may have weekend availability as well. Please let me know if you would like help on the weekends I am constantly preparing ahead of time for all the possible situations and know how to best go about them. I will make sure to keep all doors locked and to follow any directions provided.

“When Amy asked me to write a testimonial for her, I was trilled to do so! I wish I still lived by her but my family and I moved out of the country for work. Amy was my go-to person for almost six years! She always went above and beyond what was expected of her. Over the years, Amy helped care for our two dogs, three cats, a frog, and a bearded dragon. She knows so much about pets that whenever we had any questions or concerns about them, we'd turn to her for help. She has always been polite and willing to accommodate any changes in plans.”
Arlington-East Falls pet parents share their Rover experiences
Truffle had a blast yet again! We really appreciated the videos of our pup’s adventures. Titi also got some cuddle time during the stay. The house was very clean when we got home and Renee even mowed the grass. Thank you for taking great care of our furry friends

Eric watched our Springer Spaniel and our three cats in our home for five days and he was excellent ! Our dog has anxiety and is people shy but she took to Eric immediately. I didn’t have to worry about them as he kept constant communication with me along with sending us pictures. My dog was well taken care of and loved her time with Eric. I highly recommend him and can’t say enough, how pleased we were. Thank you Eric for making our time in Paris stress and worry free!

Alison did reoccurring weekly drop in visits for us, as well as a few weekends here and there, and she was beyond fantastic. She was so kind and caring towards our pup, even though he can be quite the handful. Communicated well on visit days and is overall extremely organized. We’re moving away and seriously wish we could bring her with us - we were very lucky to find her here on Rover.

We were so grateful to have Haley house sit for us while we traveled abroad for a week. She was incredibly flexible and understanding when our travel plans changed and we experienced delays. Haley took excellent care of our dogs, including our Mastiff and senior dog, both of whom received plenty of cuddles and attention. She also managed administering medication for our dog’s ear infection with great care and professionalism. It was such a relief knowing our furry family members were in such capable and loving hands. We highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!

Sai was a wonderful petsitter! Sai watched our two dogs and cat for two weeks, staying in our home during the time. I would absolutely recommend Sai. He checked in with us a few times to let us know how the pets were doing and we arrived home to a tidy house and happy animals.

Olivia was fantastic. She was so thoughtful and took great care of our two dogs and cat while we were away. One of our dogs is especially anxious, as this was the first time we left her, and Olivia really made sure to pay extra attention and care. She was also extremely communicative and sent us photos to keep us updated. Highly recommend her for house sitting and pet sitting!

Seth was an absolute lifesaver! He took incredible care of our dog and handled an unexpected power outage during a storm with total grace and professionalism. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our home and pup were in such capable hands. We’ll absolutely be using Seth for all future dog and house sitting needs—he’s our go-to from now on!
