“Laura was wonderful! She's extremely experienced, capable, competent, and knowledgable. My little guy (Julius, a cat) usually has bad separation anxiety, but he did wonderfully with Laura when she stayed in my apartment with him for two weeks. I highly recommend Laura as a sitter for any animal!”
“Irina is an awesome sitter! Came over a few days before our event to meet our dog; she asked great questions, wrote down my answers and got a long great with our dog. She walked her multiple times, played with her in the our yard, and sent lots of photos. She was flexible with the end time, as we were attending an event and were not sure of when it would end. Thanks so much Irina!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and let me just say Kortni took away all of the worries and anxiety that I had. She is truly one of a kind. She sent pictures and updates throughout the entire trip. You can see the love she has for pets! I would highly recommend her to anyone! She’s the best!”
“Hadija did a fantastic job watching Layla overnight. She made sure all instructions were followed and sent lots of pictures. There was great communication and Layla was very well cared for. House was clean, you would not know anyone was even in the house! We would definitely use her again and even potentially for longer stays!”
“I was so fortunate to have found Calli when I needed someone to be gentle and affectionate toward my senior dog and approachable for my younger dog. She tended to Foxy with so much care because of her recent injury and Singha warmed up to her too which surprised me. I will certainly have Cali be their caregiver again. I recommend Calli as a five star sitter.”
“Jessica watched my 8 year old pug Gordy. She was wonderful.. sent me lots of pictures and updates and my dog loved her...I will definitely use Jessica in the future for all our trips”
“Eleanor was wonderful with my 3 dogs. She sent lots of pictures. The girls were happy and well taken care of. They got plenty of outdoor time and playtime with Eleanor. Would highly recommend Eleanor”
About: Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve always had an animal around the house. Whether it was my parents cats, my family dogs, or my grandparents fosters, there has always been an animal in my household! I love entertaining them and playing with them, and I do my best to make sure they feel loved and safe in their spaces! I am a college student who works as a substitute teacher, so weekends are the main time I can provide your pet with the best service possible! But, if you communicate ahead of time and are nearby, I’m sure we can figure out a time for me to drop in, or the chance of me staying overnight to care for your pet! When coming into your home, I want to make sure that I am the best guest possible. Not only do I want your pet to be comfortable with me in their space, but I want you to feel comfortable with me caring for them. Give me the ground rules, the entire run down, and I will put my best foot forward to show you I’m somebody you can trust.
“My wife and I just had Jennifer stay with our dog for the very first time …. it was perfect! Wylie and Jennifer got along great! Jennifer made him feel loved and comfortable. Wylie has a strong attachment to my wife, but Jennifer won him over. While the Rover website is great and easy to work with, Jennifer walked us through the process, explained what she could do and made us feel good about leaving Wylie in the hands of a complete stranger (a stranger no more). We were equally impressed with how well Jennifer treated our home. We were gone overnight and Jennifer stayed with Wylie in our home. There is no question that I very highly recommend Jennifer to anyone who is the least bit nervous about having a pet-sitter. We plan on using her every chance we get!”
“Thank you Tiaesha for coming to our rescue last minute! You did a fantastic job with Sophie and she loved getting to know you. For anyone reading this, please book Tiaesha now as you will not regret it!!”
“Wilson was awesome! Our dog isn’t the friendliest with others, but Wilson took a chance with our family and we’re so grateful that he did. We gave him very specific instructions since our dog is very particular, and he followed everything perfectly. On top of that, he made the effort to play with our dog and give him attention — and to our surprise, our dog (who usually takes a long time to warm up to anyone) was comfortable with Wilson in just two days! He truly went above and beyond. We are so grateful and thankful. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and highly recommend Wilson to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring person to watch their pet. Highly recommend!”
“Allison was AMAZING with both our boys, Milo and Tyson. She kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and went above and beyond by cleaning up the house before she left. Left us a great hand written note recapping her stay with them which was a nice touch as well. We highly recommend using her to watch your pets! Thanks again!!!”
“Yasmine was absolutely incredible and I highly recommend! My girls aren't too difficult but they are certainly particular and Yasmine killed it. She stayed at my place for a week and when I returned, it looked exactly as I had left it. I've finally come home from a trip and genuinely felt like my girls were taken care of.”
“Sara was fantastic! We’ve never left our boy with someone other than family before so we were very anxious, but Sara quickly put our concerns to rest. She was extremely communicative and sent us a bunch of pics every day. I’m so glad we found her and will happily use her again in the future!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child, and love spending time with animals! I also foster cats in my free time and like to volunteer with local shelters! I’m currently in medical school, so this is a part time position for me, helping me to pay for my education and honestly supporting my mental health! I like to provide a calm and stable environment, and take pride in my ability to understand dog/cat body language, which helps me provide appropriate care!
“Laura watched our dog at our home while we were away for a few days. She did an excellent job with our dog and treated our home with respect. We will definitely reach out in the future when we can't bring our pup on trips! Highly recommend Laura”
“Vivian is the absolute best. In the years that we’ve had our girls, we had never left them alone, so we were anxious about finding a sitter to trust with them. From the moment we met Vivian we felt at ease. The way ours girls cozied up to her, we could tell she was the right choice. During our trip, Vivian took amazing care of our girls and our home. She provided us with photos and videos multiple times a day as well as a daily report each night. Vivian is the best sitter anyone could ask for and we will definitely be contacting her again for any future trips we plan to take. Book her to sit your pets - you won’t regret it. Thank you Vivian!!”
About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate social work student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until August. I can make myself available as needed. My own pets are given daily care. I own several disabled animals who require special care in order to get around and eat on their own. I currently have two budgies in a large cage l and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away when your pets are being boarded. In your home, I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet — but I do reserve the right to cuddle your pet a little more!

I was so fortunate to have found Calli when I needed someone to be gentle and affectionate toward my senior dog and approachable for my younger dog. She tended to Foxy with so much care because of her recent injury and Singha warmed up to her too which surprised me. I will certainly have Cali be their caregiver again. I recommend Calli as a five star sitter.
Celestine truly went above and beyond!! We were worried as this was the first time leaving our pets so long and with a housesitter, but after the first few hours it was clear all our pets were in amazing hands! Celestine showed clear love and understanding of animals. We were initially worried how our reactive dog would do while we were away, but Celestine worked with him with great care, patience, and clear expertise from training guide dogs, adjusting walking schedules for our reactive dog and doing some training. Updates were sent frequently and always with such aesthetic photos 🙂 We would trust Celestine to watch our pets again in a heartbeat 😊

Sarah is an incredible pet sitter!! She watched our dog and cat for 10 days over the holidays. She made sure our pup got lots of exercise and even took her on errands with her to avoid leaving her alone (she has separation anxiety). Sarah also won over our cat who typically isn’t very nice lol. Highly recommend booking Sarah to watch your pets!
JLyne was amazing! She came to sit my elderly cat Papi while I was out of town for an important event. I was able to focus on my event because she was able to take care of him so well. She sent me updates and answered all of my questions. She sent pics as well. To top it all off, it was even her birthday and she still watched him. Thank you so much JLyne. I would definitely recommend her! 😻😻😻
Nicole was absolutely great with our dog while we were on vacation. Upon meeting Nicole we knew she was going to be a great fit for us. Our dog ran right up to her and was so happy to meet her - dogs just seem to know good people 😊. Thanks to Nicole, we were able to enjoy our vacation as we knew our fur baby was in good hands. Each day ended with Nicole sending us amazing pictures and videos. This was our first time using a sitter and it was a wonderful experience. We highly recommend Nicole and will definitely be booking her in the future.
I couldn’t recommend Frances enough. She is a great communicator. She made sure she understood all the needs of my dog before I left for my trip. She contacted me when she had a question about my dog’s behavior. All of these things helped me to relax and enjoy my time away knowing my dog was in super capable hands!
