“Jackie did a fantastic job house sitting. Jackie took excellent care of our dog. I loved how she sent us photos of our dog while we were away, we knew she was in great care!”

“Maria was great with our two Aussies! She sent updates including photos each day, played fetch with them outside, and left our house immaculate. She even won over our nervous pup. We are also so appreciative to her for allowing us to add an extra night super last-minute without any complaints. I would highly recommend her for overnight stays with your pups! :)”

“Ezra was great with Coco! Immediately on entering our house they were calm and knew how to make our girl feel at ease with a new person (not easy - my dog is mostly cattle dog and they are suspicious of almost everyone). Ezra was responsive and thorough. Looking forward to calling them again!”

“Very competent and professional. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs and our house in her hands. Our pups were very happy and even whined a bit after her. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely book her again.”

About: Hi! I'm Lee. I've cared for animals for over 20 years, including three dogs of my own, and I've been pet sitting for friends, family, and others for the past four years. I love both cats and dogs and enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether they're playful or cuddly, I focus on helping them feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. Every pet receives patience, attention, and plenty of affection. Pet sitting fits into my schedule very naturally because I have a flexible work life as a hairstylist. My days are usually built around client appointments, which allows me to open time for pet care in between services, early mornings, evenings, and sometimes full days when I’m not booked. On lighter workdays, I can take on drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. On slower days or weekends, I’m available for longer care or overnight stays. I plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet my full attention, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for without rushing their time with me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they are always safe, comfortable, and on a consistent routine. I always provide fresh, clean water throughout the day so pets stay hydrated. For feeding, I keep a structured schedule so they know what to expect—breakfast is served no later than 8:00 AM and dinner is served no later than 6:00 PM, unless the owner provides a different routine. For dogs, I always make sure they are securely on a leash or harness before they step outside. Their safety is my top priority, and I stay alert to make sure they don’t get into anything dangerous, such as trash, bones, or anything on the ground that could harm them. Inside the home, I maintain a pet-friendly environment by keeping an eye on their behavior and making sure they stay away from hazards like electrical wires or anything they could chew or swallow. I also make sure they have a safe space where they can play, relax, and move around comfortably without risk. My goal is always to create a calm, safe environment where pets feel secure, cared for, and at ease while their owners are away.
“We love having Katie dog sit for Odin and Sasha! She's always great to check in with before, during and after the stay. As a pet mom, I love the photos she takes. It's a relief to know they're in great and trusting hands”


About: I have been surrounded by animals for my whole life. Appreciation from animals became important to me and care for them became important too. No task is too much for taking care of my own or someone else's pet(s). I have a routine for how I take care of my own cat (ie. feeding schedules and litter cleaning schedules). My evenings are some of the most important times for caring for pets either through direct care or playing, as this is both for them and for me. I would care for them a lot like I care for my own pet. Feeding, care, and play routines all matter. As long as the dog/cat is willing to participate in play with me (with trust and in their comfort zone) I would engage with them.
“I found Izzy at the perfect time. We needed a last minute sitter and she made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She sent us awesome updates and loved on our sometimes selective pup. You could tell he felt so safe with her and we were able to relax knowing he was in good hands. Already telling everyone I know to book with Izzy!”


About: I have walked dogs at the shelter, cared for family’s and friend’s cats and dogs, and worked at a vet. I grew up with 4 dogs, 1 cat, and 3 birds. I will keep you updated on everything that happens so you have a peace of mind. I am willing to take the dog to the park or follow any specific instructions. I am flexible with scheduling; we can work out a time that is convenient for you! I look forward to working with you to hanging out with your best buddy!

About: I have extensive experience working with a range of dog temperaments and personalities. Whether your dog is highly energetic and hyperactive or calm and low-maintenance, I know how to adapt to their specific needs. I take pride in getting to know each dog’s personality and building a strong, lasting bond with them. My Special Skills: Leash Training: Due to the diverse personalities I have encountered, I have become highly skilled at managing and improving leash manners during walks. Customized Care: I naturally adapt my energy and routine to match what makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. Patience & Bonding: I focus on positive reinforcement and patience to win over anxious or stubborn dogs. Right now, my schedule is extremely flexible, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and availability to your pets. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and consistent companionship throughout the day. I am highly attentive, alert, and fully aware of the immense trust and responsibility pet owners place in me. I take the well-being and security of your pets very seriously. I treat them with the same level of cautious, dedicated care that I would want for my own family.
“Ray comes highly recommended after his stay with our cat and dog! He is an effective communicator, quick to respond and easy to plan with. He took excellent care of our pets and our home and sent us updates while we were gone. Both pets seemed happy and at ease when we returned. Would definitely recommend Ray to anyone in need of a sitter.”

About: I have worked with dogs as little as 10 weeks to senior pups! I make sure they always feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. I want every pup in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust their day based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. I provide attentive, responsible care and take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and specific needs before their stay or visit

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Emslie
Marideth was absolutely wonderful! Her Rover reviews were so good I almost couldn't believe them, but now I understand why. She was incredibly flexible, kind, and fantastic with both our kitten and our wild puppy. She has trainer-level skills, which we really appreciated! She went above and beyond, and we loved receiving daily photos and videos of both our babies while we were away. We wouldn't hesitate to trust her with our pets for an extended vacation. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter!

If you are looking for a dog sitter to stay at your home, Haley is your person! She came over to meet our dog last minute and it was evident how much she loves animals. When we were out of town, we got frequent updates and pictures! It’s not easy leaving your furry friend behind but we didn’t have one worry with Haley. When we got home, it was obvious our buddy had a great weekend and was exhausted from all the playing.

We were more than satisfied with our choice of Tiffany for watching our cat Lucky for 3 weeks. We were concerned that Lucky might not accept Tiffany once he realized we were gone. That fear was short lived when she shared a photo of him sleeping on her lap the first day. Lucky is a high maintenance cat because he is an indoor/outdoor cat, so more work for Tiffany was required. We are so glad that she was available for that time slot and agreed to stay in our home. We highly recommend Tiffany.

Nafisa was wonderful with Buttercup! From the beginning, I felt very comfortable leaving both Buttercup and my home in her care. She communicated really well while I was away, and I came home to a house in great shape and a happy, well-cared-for Buttercup. That gave me such peace of mind while I was traveling. I would absolutely use Nafisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.

I’m back again! 😁😁 After the amazing experience I had the first time, there was no question about who I was booking with again. What was originally just one stay while I was in Puerto Rico turned into me rebooking because I knew Penelope and Pablo would be in the best hands. Judith continues to go above and beyond. She keeps me updated, communicates so well, and treats my dogs with so much love and care. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and comfortable while I’m away. Thank you again, Judith, for everything you do! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
