“Ilana was great! She went above and beyond to make sure the dogs were taken care of, walked twice a day (early morning and later evenings due to the heat), and sent so many updates! We had her stay at our house while we were out of town and the house was tidy upon us coming home, with no issues. Ilana was very respectful and kind! Thank you!”
“CK was great with our two adorable, but anxious pups while we were away. He took lots of pictures and sent us updates. Would highly recommend and would book again!”
“There are not enough words to explain how amazing and truly incredible Heather is!!! We have 4 dogs with 4 different personalities and needs. It was instant love for her by them! It would be your dogs loss if you don’t use her services! She’s an amazing person and true dog lover!”
“Tyler was very nice. Our almost 4 year old Husky Mix liked Tyler immediately. His personality helped me relax and feel comfortable with the process of hiring a house sitter. He was very good with communication, which I really appreciated. This was a meet & greet after which Tyler house sat for us for a few hours. It went really well.”
“Jessica has been absolutely amazing with River! So attentive and flexible. Keeps me up to date and sends me happy photos of my pup!! Would highly recommend and use again!!”
“Traisaun was a great dog sitter and Kaya had an absolute great time with him. We could tell she was so relaxed and really enjoyed her time! The house was left in great shape too. We would love to hire him again given the chance!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with someone who wasn’t family and we were very anxious about it, however, Keilah was amazing. She came over to our house and met Millie before we left to ensure a smooth transition. Additionally, she sent updates, pictures, and videos of our pup to reassure us everything was going great. I’m sure Millie will miss her! Cannot recommend enough, we will definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you, Keilah!”
“Kristin was wonderful. She took excellent care of Baxter. They took lots of walks. She went above and beyond. Everything was neat and clean when I got home. She's new to Rover and was perfect. I will definitely use her again.”
“It was a relief to leave my cats in the hands of someone so experienced in caring for them. I was definitely nervous, but Cheyenne was extremely responsive and provided great updates. I can tell that my cats were well cared for and I would be happy to use her services again!”
“This is the longest time we’ve ever been away from our pups and we were across the country. Ten days! Josh did an amazing job with both of them! We don’t leave them long every day and we like to keep them on a routine. We were able to enjoy our vacation and not worry about the pups for the first time. Josh has sit for us several times. We’ve been using Rover for quite a few years and he’s by far the best and most dependable. When we came home the pups were not stressed at all and even jumped between me, my husband and Josh. You can tell they love him. Josh sent us pics and updates every day as well. They received amazing care and attention while we were gone for ten days. Thank you Josh!!!!!”
About: I train for races & am always looking for a running or walking buddy! I love dogs and cats as I have a pup & 4 cats myself!! My Dalmatian comes with some specific directions for food/behavior so I am confident I can care for your dog down to the most specific details! I work a school schedule and will be off for a little bit over the summer! I can check in on pets staring at 4:00pm during the week & can tend to them on the weekends. I am more comfortable taking care of your pet in your home and I have a slightly particular Dalmatian. However, If a pup needed to stay in my home, they have to be crate trained.
About: I have owned a variety of dogs throughout my life, some bought and some rescued. I know what it is like to go through the ups and downs of raising a dog and I would love to play a role in helping you in that journey! I am an involved and hard worker with a passion for pets. I love going for walks and staying active and am always outside doing something. I can handle energetic dogs and puppies and I don’t mind getting pushed around a little and I am great at giving baths after long nature outing. I do have another job but it is only open on the weekend so I have plenty of free time during the week. I am also pretty flexible when comes to hours as well. I love to have a set idea of do’s and do not’s from a pet owner before I house sit just to make sure I am not overstepping or over correcting and to make sure everyone is safe at all times. I currently do not petsit in my home because of my living situation.
“Ananda is wonderful. She was able to help us out in short order and handled our senior Husky so we'll. Consistent updates and left our house looking exactly as she found it. 100% will use again and would recommend to anyone else!”
“Alyssa did a fantastic job watching our dog Thor when we went out of town for an extra long weekend. She showed up on time, excited and prepared for the visit. Sent pictures and updates a few times everyday, which gave us peace of mind. We will be using her again in the future.”
