“Breanca did an amazing job with our two anxious pitbulls. She communicated in a timely manner and was great to work with. Would highly recommend”
“Jessica was great, my dog had the best day with her! My dog doesn't realize he's as big as he is, but she didn't mind him in invading her space and treated him like the spoiled four-legged baby that he is! She was so good to him and I greatly appreciate it!”
“Kelsi did a fantastic job taking care of our busy Goldendoodle! It was delight to meet her during our meet and greet. She stayed over and took the time to share photos. We’ll definitely request her services again! She’s awesome!”
“Nina provided attentive care to our two dogs in our home. She provided daily check-ins that gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our 8 days away. She left our house clean and the dogs extremely happy!”
“Jessie did a great job house sitting with our two dogs. It was over the 3rd of July & she made sure our dog with firework anxiety had her cbd oil & was well taken care of.”
“Joleen was wonderful with our home AND our two pups during our week away. Great communication and made us (and our dogs!) very comfortable. Hoping to be able to have Joleen as our more permanent pup (and home) sitter when needed.”
“Ally was a great asset to us and did a long stay with our two doxies. She was very easy to communicate with and gave daily updates. She cares greatly about the pets and we would love to work with her again.”
“Anna did a great job taking care of our 2 dogs while we were on vacation for a week. We really appreciated all of the updates and pictures!😀 Would not hesitate to book again.”
“Emma was fabulous! I was so nervous having someone come and stay at my house and take care of my dogs that I didn’t know. I have never done this before. OMG she was amazing. She stayed at me house and was respectful to everything. She even washed my sheets and towels after using them. House was clean when I came home. My dogs seemed to have loved her. I have a Frenchie who loves everyone but I also have a yorkiepoo who is scared if most people. First day he was unsure about Emma. He wouldn’t come out of closet to go for his daily walk and to go potty. Even when she offered him treats. She was so sweet to give him the time he needed to warm up to her. She didn’t force him to go on walk and because of that he grew to trust her. He later had no problem going out to potty and eating his food just a few hours later. He’s a sweet boy but is scared for a bit. She was wonderful with him. Both dogs were taken very good care of and she was in contact with me throughout every day. Keeping me posted and sharing pictures. After first day I didn’t feel worried anymore. Emma you did fabulous and I will for sure use you again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my dogs for me while I was away. Your the best!”
“Jessica was wonderful! She watched my 10 year old pup for a last minute weekend away and I couldn't be more pleased. She was incredibly reliable, communicated regularly with updates and photos, and made sure my dog felt comfortable and loved! Highly recommend!”
“Lucia did a fantastic job house sitting for us - watching our two dogs. It was our first time using Rover, but everything went smoothly. One of our dogs is wary of new people but got along well with Lucia from day one. Lucia sent pictures, was great with the dogs, and kept the house very tidy. We will definitely rebook.”
“Morgan was great taking care of our dogs while we were out of town! Excellent communication and provided lots of extra snuggles.”
About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was a baby. I have always enjoyed being around animals and playing with them and building trust with them and being able to cuddle with them on tough days. I have had different types of animals in my life. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamster, bearded dragon. I currently work part time as a nanny on mondays and Friday and I also currently am trying to create my own business of refurbishing furniture when I have the time. So I am available most days. If yard is fenced I let them run and play and watch them at all times. Otherwise I will put a leash on them so they stay close. I will also pay attention to where they are at all times.
“Chelsea is wonderful, and so attentive and careful with my big guy. He’s suffering after adoption with some separation anxiety, and she came to stay with him, and was just a star, for both his sake and mine. She’s committed to animals and very interested in all the ways she can work to make their lives better. What an asset to have in my “village” of helpers!”
“Heather was great! Scheduled a meet and greet in advance of our first reservation to do an introduction for our dogs. Very communicative and caring! Our dogs loved her!! We will definitely use again!!”
“This is our second time with Sydney and she will be our go to dog sitter in the future! Our dogs are well loved and cared for when she’s with them, and she also takes good care of our house.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 and live on a 6 acre farm where the dogs can run and play all day. I’m currently between jobs but anticipate that my next work will be WFH so I can care for the dogs and other farm animals day in and day out. While the yard is not fenced per se, I do have invisible fencing if your dog is used to that system. I have 3 of my own dogs that know the boundaries and stay within them. I have a 3 bedroom house with 2 of the bedrooms unoccupied so there is plenty of space. I have crates of different sizes of your dog prefers to be crated for any length of time. One of my dogs is crated when not home the other 2 are free to roam the house and very well behaved.
“Great experience with Paige watching our dog. Communicative, responsive, and very easy to work with! We will definitely use her services in the future.”
About: I've had dogs in my family ever since I was a little kid, so I have a good amount of experience. Over the last couple of years especially, I have really worked to have meaningful relationships with my family dogs, spending quality time with them inside and outside, taking them for walks, and providing them with plenty of love. Unfortunately, the family dog we've for nearly 15 years passed away recently :( I put together a memory book of her this last Christmas, attesting to just how special she was to our family. I am a very respectful, friendly, and dependent sitter. I can always be counted on to not only do what's right, but to go above and beyond expectations. I prioritize a healthy and active lifestyle, so sitting on my phone or being lazy would never be an issue! I love to take dogs for walks outside, or simply even just play and spend time with them! I am currently in the process of finding full time work for this summer. I would likely be working Mon-Fri; however, that isn't 100% confirmed. With that in mind, Saturday and Sunday would likely be the days that would work best for dog walking and/or house sitting. Depending on what specific work hours look like, I would also be available to walk dogs during weekdays as well, most likely in the evening hours after dinner time (5pm and on) In my client's home, I will always be respectful of their home and property. I demonstrate amazing responsibility and can be very well trusted to follow all/any specific instructions in caring for the client's dog! Above all, I will always make sure everyone is safe and taken care of, but also have fun as well!
“Ariel was awesome. It is clear that she loves dogs and treated our guy like he was her own. Communication was great, pictures were wonderful. It could not have been better, and we will definitely ask her to sit again!”

19. Liam R.
“Exceptional Dog Sitter and Walker - Highly Recommended! I am thrilled to recommend Liam as a dog sitter and walker on Rover.com. Liam has always been an incredibly responsible and caring individual, especially when it comes to animals. His love for dogs is evident in the way he interacts with our family pets, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well-exercised. Liam has been taking care of our dogs for years, and his dedication is unmatched. Whether he's home from college or on break, he never misses a day of walking them, rain or shine. His attention to detail and commitment to their well-being is truly commendable. Liam understands the importance of routine and exercise for dogs, and he goes above and beyond to make sure they are comfortable and content. In addition to his reliability, Liam is a natural at understanding each dog's unique needs and personality. He is patient, gentle, and always prioritizes safety. His ability to connect with dogs and make them feel at ease is remarkable, and I have no doubt that he will provide the same level of care and attention to your furry friends. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, and experienced, Liam is the perfect choice. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any dog sitting or walking needs you may have. Your pets will be in excellent hands with Liam!”
