“We've booked Katie for house sitting and already have another upcoming booking with her. She's knowledgeable, kept our house clean, and was easy to communicate with. Katie provided excellent care for our high-energy puppy and showed great affection for our senior dog. We appreciated all the updates with photos and videos, which kept us reassured and worry-free. We were initially concerned about finding someone who could handle our puppy's playful nature, quirks, and challenging behaviors, but Katie quickly eased our worries. Both dogs seem happy and well cared for, and we're grateful to have found someone patient and understanding of our dog’s unique needs. Looking forward to our next booking! Thanks again!”

“So happy Amyra was able to watch my dogs again, especially over the holidays it’s hard to find a sitter. She was great with communication and sent multiple updates daily! Left the house clean and with the happiest dogs!”

About: I’ve spent the last 11+ years caring for a wide range of animals — from energetic puppies to senior cats, to birds, turtles, and even large-breed dogs. Growing up surrounded by animals and now caring for my own dog and cat, I’ve always had a natural connection with pets and a deep sense of responsibility for their wellbeing. Before joining Rover, I provided private pet sitting and walking for family friends, neighbors, and referrals for many years. I’ve worked with shy pets, playful pets, anxious pets, and pets with unique routines. I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and quick to recognize what an animal needs to feel safe and comfortable. I’m confident with different temperaments and sizes, and I genuinely love spending time with animals — ensuring they get affection, stimulation, consistency, and reliable care while their families are away. Whether it’s a long walk, a calm cuddle session, or maintaining a specific routine, I always tailor my care to each pet’s personality. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I always keep communication clear and consistent so you feel fully at ease while you’re away. My pets mean the world to me, and I treat yours with that same degree of love. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life since I care for my own dog and cat daily. I work full-time on weekdays from roughly 8:30am–5pm, but I’m available for morning and evening walks, check-ins, and plenty of quality time before and after work. On weekends, I’m fully available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. For house sitting, I make sure pets get a consistent morning routine before I leave and lots of attention, walks, and playtime once I’m home in the evening. Many clients find that this schedule matches their own workday, creating a comfortable and predictable routine for their pets. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so I build it naturally into my daily rhythm and keep communication open so you always know how your little one is doing. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my first priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your routines exactly as you outline them, from feeding schedules to walk routes to household boundaries. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, sensitivities, and comfort levels so I can make the experience as stress-free and familiar as possible. I’m very attentive to doors, gates, harnesses, and leashes, and I always double-check that your home is secure before I leave. I keep a calm, gentle presence so pets feel safe around me, and I’m mindful of their body language to make sure they’re comfortable with any interaction. Clean water, a tidy litter box, a clean feeding area, and a predictable routine are things I’m consistent about every visit. If I’m house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care I’d want for mine. I maintain a clean environment, follow all instructions closely, and keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I handle unexpected situations calmly and communicate clearly so you feel confident and informed at all times. Overall, I prioritize trust, communication, and creating a peaceful, safe environment where your pet can relax and feel cared for — just like they would with you.
“Everything from meet and greet to booking was great with Christian. He kept up with fur baby photos and kept the house spotless for a smooth return from vacation. I will definitely be booking with him again 👌🏽🙂”

“You can tell instantly that Kimberly is a dog lover the moment you meet her. When she met Jordan for the first time, she was very calm and caring. Jordan was very quick to warm up to Kimberly right away. We knew Jordan was in good hands. Kimberly was very personable and friendly. We felt extremely comfortable with her and will definitely call her again!”

“Jessica is a wonderful house sitter and took great care of our senior dog Ruby. Frequent updates were provided. We will be booking with her again if we have any future vacations!”

“Jingyling was absolutely amazing taking care of our senior pup. Our pup had some recent medical issues and she took excellent care of her. She gave us lots of updates and left the home tidy. Will use again.”


“Robert is so very amenable. He was so helpful in a pinch and went ABOVE AND BEYOND. He is a great fit. My pup and cat loved him. He was right on schedule with all their needs and got them up and moving and staying healthy!”

“Esther was awesome! Petsitting 2 cattle dogs at the last minute was challenging, but she worked with me and my pets and got them in a routine within a day! She kept me informed every step of the way and never hesitated to answer my texts. I've already asked her how to contact her for future pet sitting. Raider, Sloane and I are grateful to Esther for everything. Thank you! ♥️”

“Kayla was amazing, We went out of town and she did a sleep over and stayed with our fur babies. She took care of them and sent lots of video and pictures. I would definitely recommend her for pet sitting and overnights.”

“Julia is a gem and a lovely person. She has a friendly energy and Pepsi felt at ease with her. He usually goes on hunger strike when we leave him but not with Julia! He ate his food and drank his water and was calm and taken care of when we got home. She was communicative and responded to my enquiries in a timely manner. I look forward to booking with her again. Thank you Julia!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and continued to have them into my college years as well. I love animals and only want to provide a comforting service so owners know their fur babies are taken care of. I work remotely, so given proper notice I can generally stop by anytime for either drop in or overnight care. My schedule is extremely flexible and I get that life is crazy so I can easily lend a hand. My pets are my kids, they’re my first and last thought throughout my day and I want that same level of attention to be given to any pet I’m taking care of.
About: I work from home and host a few friendly dogs in a supervised, calm environment. I’m experienced with high-energy dogs, large dogs, and multi-dog households, and I provide daily photo updates so you always feel connected. New and Repeat Clients: At this time, I’m not offering solo boarding. Also, please note that all dogs in my care will only be fed the food provided by their owners to ensure their safety and to avoid any allergies or sensitivities. I love hosting pets and do my best to keep everyone safe and comfortable. However, any damages caused by a pet to my home or belongings will be the owner's responsibility. Due to my flexible work-from-home schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and walks throughout the day—whether that’s potty breaks, playtime, or even snuggles while I work. At my home, I make sure the space is pet-safe, with no access to anything harmful, and I supervise closely. I am always quick to clean up any accidents or spills to maintain a clean and welcoming environment.

About: I have owned and cared for my Coton de Tulear, Bella, for over twelve years. I brush my dog’s teeth almost everyday, bathe her weekly, walk her at least twice a day, and play with/cuddle her constantly. In addition to caring for my own, I have extensively walked, fed, stayed overnight with, and loved two family friends’ Yorkies and labradoodle for years. I’m the neighborhood’s go-to if anyone’s dog needs to be walked or stayed with overnight. I recently saw the film “Dog Days” and cried because of how much I fell in love with the dogs on screen. I am a recent post-grad, so my schedule is rather flexible. I consider my dog my best friend and I can’t wait to spend more time and fall in love with more dogs!
“I was all the way in Russia but knew I could count on Tiffany to care of my growing puppy while I was gone! The place looked great when I returned and Oreo was happy! Thanks Tiffany!!!!!!!!”

“Irene was amazing. She kept us updated, asked great questions, and even was understanding when there was some confusion with the sitter right before her. The animals were very well taken care of while she was here!”

“Alyssa was such a great dog sitter and house sitter! She was with my Petey boy for a week and I can tell he was in such good hands. Petey can be anxious with separation anxiety and I can tell from the pictures Alyssa sent me that Petey felt very safe and happy! I couldn’t recommend Alyssa enough, she’s very much a dog person and the ideal dog sitter/ house sitter. Alyssa also took care of my house very well. She took out trash cans and managed instructions well. I’m definitely booking with her again!”

Kimberly has stayed with our dog twice now, and we have nothing but good things to say! She was very responsible and communicative, sending pics and videos of our dog. She left the house spotless and was very accommodating to all our requests. Thanks again, Kimberly!

She was amazing! You would be lucky to have her as your sitter. She sent me videos and pictures everyday. She is a lovely, caring and thoughtful lady. She even brought her daughter and husband over to walk and play with them too! I will definitely ask her to watch my 3 pups again:)

Christian was amazing! I had never used an outside service before and wasnt sure what to expect but Christian went above and beyond for my dogs. He sent multiple pictures/videos for updates each day, allowed the dogs to smother him in attention, and made the entire process stress free and seamless. The dogs absolutely loved him and I wouldnt hesitate to rebook him. Couldnt imagine anyone better!

Genevieve took care of my pets for two weeks while I was vacationing out of the country. I was nervous about using Rover for such a long trip as my only previous Rover experience was for a long weekend getaway probably over 6 years ago. However Genevieve was an extremely wonderful sitter. I could tell she really cares about animals. She treated my dog Yugi with trips to the park and playtime with her own dogs (only after ensuring my dog would be friendly with others), as well as peanut butter snacks and plenty of cuddles. In her update pictures and videos I could tell he was getting along more than fine and enjoying Genevieve‘s care! The two weeks was over in a flash but she really helped us not to worry about our pets so that we could enjoy our trip!

We have an anxious pit bull and Dalton did a fantastic job getting to know her and then meeting her where she was at when he house sat for us. He was attentive to her needs and she warmed up to him very quickly despite being shy around new people. Dalton provided regular updates and did a great job with our house as well. We were really happy with his house/dog sitting services and will definitely be asking him to watch the doggo again!

Esther was awesome! Petsitting 2 cattle dogs at the last minute was challenging, but she worked with me and my pets and got them in a routine within a day! She kept me informed every step of the way and never hesitated to answer my texts. I've already asked her how to contact her for future pet sitting. Raider, Sloane and I are grateful to Esther for everything. Thank you! ♥️

Jennifer is absolutely wonderful! She listens carefully to instructions, communicates clearly, and genuinely cares for my cat, Theodore. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in loving hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!

Alice was amazing with my dog, Kira! She had very little time to get to know her ahead of time, but bonded well just the same. Took great care of my place and Kira had a blast. She followed all instructions to a T. Made sure I got photos and updates constantly along the way. I was never worried for a second. Will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend to those seeking someone to take good care of their fur baby .

Laura was absolutely incredible with our two large dogs! She has a warm and engaging way about her that our dogs immediately took to. Laura followed instructions regarding exercise, feedings, medicine administration, and spending time and caring for our dogs while we were out of town overnight. Laura feels it is important to not only keeps the dogs safe but enrich their lives in a variety of ways. We were so impressed by her energy and dedication and are so very thankful. I think our dogs really miss her now and we can’t wait for another opportunity to have her again!

We met Kelsy at the beginning of the summer and she took such amazing care of our dog this summer while we traveled. Even our fellow neighbor dog owners met and loved her on their walks. She was great with Thor always in communication with us with pictures and updates.
