“Ana does such a good job with our shy dog. She takes the time to try and get him to come around even getting on the floor to get him to trust her. She’s super dependable. She gave him all his meds and gave us continuous updates on a wound he was dealing with. She even watered our plants! Thank you!”



“We were so grateful to have Natalie dropping in on our pup while we were away for a weekend. She was very communicative and Laika loved her. We highly recommend her!!”


“We have a feisty old kitty who is very hard to medicate. Andee has been more successful with medicating her than any other pet sitter we have tried! We are very grateful for Andee’s excellent animal care skills.”


“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”

“Martha is sooooo great with my dog. She is super sweet and very accommodating and flexible with time and preferences. I will be using her to walk my dog from now on!”

“I met Reece and went over things for taking care of our bird, rabbit, rat and two dogs. He fed and gave them there water, plus Medication. He also gave the rat new bedding everyday and cleaned the room our rat, rabbit and bird share. Our dogs are a 20 year old Rat Terrier and 13 year old Chihuahua. We were kept updated with pictures and daily report. We had no complaints!”


About: I have three of my own pups and 2 cats, and if my husband would let me have more I would! We don’t deserve animals! They are literally the best thing! I hope I can love your animals as much as I love mine while you are away! My boys love new friends and would be so excited to meet your fur babies. I work full time, but only work 8 hour shifts with some remote days. If your pets do well with other pets and hanging out for a few hours alone, I’ve got you covered! I have an elderly boy (14), so I know all about meds and providing comfort! Message me for more scheduling details, I can sometimes move my schedule around to accommodate. I have a fenced yard, my animals are indoor mostly because of this sac heat. I have the ac and fans on always to make sure they are the most comfortable they can be!

“Fantastic service! First time using Rover. Mel stood out from the rest . Glad I chose her. Very happy client and came home to an even happier kitty. Thanks Mel - Your purr-fect.”


About: I’ve had pets since I was a child and have taken care of my kitty, Monster for the past decade. She is a spunky old soul and receives all the love. I’ve sat for family and friends and just love meeting all the different animals. I’ve grown up around dogs, cats, rats, fish and just have a passion for caring for them. I’m currently working part time so have tons of flexibility for boarding, walks, check-ins, anything you need! I can most likely accept day of as well! I have a fenced yard at home, so plenty of bathroom access as well as play space. I have dog toys as well as cat toys/treats. Animals are welcome on my furniture and pretty much anywhere they’d like to explore in my home! Regarding a clients space, however they care best for them is how I will!

“First time and Debbie was amazing. I booked her last minute and she was soo helpful. The pictures and notes I received everyday were amazing. Debbie went above and beyond taking care of my fur baby, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future.”


“We’ve used Bari three times now to check in on our cat Charlie’s. She’s the best! She thinks of everything and goes above and beyond for your pet. She also takes great pictures 🤗”


“Hans is an absolute hero yet again!! Looked after our two cats with love, care, and great communication! As always their vote counts the most, and they were in fine spirits when we got back. 10/10 would recommend Hans!!”


“Aicha was great with Brindle. This time our persisting was super last minute and she got back to us right away so we knew we could plan our time away. She sent us pics and just asked us if she had any questions....great sitter!”


About: As a dog mom to three (a husky, a shepherd mix, and a chihuahua), I understand that every dog has their own needs—whether they’re high-energy runners or slow-moving seniors. I’m active and love staying on the move, but I also know when to slow down. Reliable, flexible, and caring. My schedule is pretty flexible! I don’t have set work hours, so happy to fit in dog walks and visits throughout my day + weekend. I would be glad to follow whatever instructions/schedule your dog is on! You can count on me to treat your home—and your pet—with the same care I give my own.

About: With years of personal experience as a dachshund owner and plenty of cat-sitting under my belt, I provide attentive, loving care for your furry family members. I’ve looked after pets for friends, from shy cats like Moo to playful pups like Lucy, and I always treat them as if they were my own. Whether it’s cuddle time, playtime, or keeping to their routine, your pets will be in safe, caring hands. I have open availability and can work with your schedule to provide daily walks, drop-in visits, or in-home sitting. Whether you need consistent care during the week or occasional help for travel, I’m happy to create a routine that keeps your pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your instructions to the letter— from feeding schedules to medication needs—and ensure they are well cared for and secure. In your home, I respect your space and leave it just as you left it, if not better.

“Superb cat sitter! Jaclyn took the time to meet me before my trip, was very responsive to messages, and always sent informative updates from her check ins. Will definitely book again for future trips.”


“Tessa was reliable when watching our kitties last minute while we were away for the weekend. She made sure one of our kitties got their pain meds too. They loved her too which helps! Will definitely book again.”

Dominique F.
“Dominique is amazing, she is awesome with my fur babies. My 2 standard poodles and kitty love her and when she comes over and they smother her with their wonderful wet kisses. They all fight for the place of honor on her lap. She is patient and loving and treats my babies like they are her own. I feel total safe when I know it’s Dominique coming over or walking my babies. My girls can tell the true spirit of a person the minute they meet that person and they have been in love with her ever since they met her. Like I said she is amazing, loving and caring and I would recommend her to any fur-baby parent - your precious babies are safe and alway loved with her - she is the next best thing to me lol 😁”

Noelle W.
“We’ve trusted Noey with our two German Shorthaired Pointers—one senior (15 years old) and one younger (5 years old)—and couldn’t be happier. Our dogs have very different energy levels and needs, and Noey handled both with confidence, patience, and genuine care. Our older dog needs a gentle touch and some extra attention, while the younger one is high-energy and loves to play. Noey gave each exactly what they needed. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away.”

“Jill has been a great friend to both me and my dog Tucker over the years. She's jumped in to care for him whenever asked and provides him with endless exercise and mental stimulation. Her own dogs have provided great socialization for Tucker and I could not ask for a more reliable and safe person to trust my pup with. He comes home happy and exhausted!”


Sabrina T.
“Sabrina is an absolutely wonderful pet caregiver! She takes amazing care of our dog, Lucy, whether it’s coming by for mid-day walks or staying in our home while we travel. I feel 100% comfortable with her in our home—she’s trustworthy, respectful, and always leaves everything in perfect shape. Sabrina communicates promptly and clearly, which makes coordinating visits a breeze. While we’re away, she keeps us updated with adorable photos and sweet stories about Lucy, giving us such peace of mind. She’s also just an outstanding human being—genuine, dependable, and the kind of person you can trust without hesitation. We’re so grateful to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

Fairgrounds pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were absolutely thrilled with Copeland’s work! She has excellent communication skills and is willing to go above and beyond for pets and their families! She dealt with our kitty having accidents and adjusted accordingly. We will definitely book her again!! Thank you, Copeland :)!!!

Bernadette has exceeded my expectations duing her drop-in visits with my dog Penny. I have a long commute and needed someone to come let her out to go potty and spend time together during the day. Bernadette gives very detailed reports of Penny's mood, consumption, and potty habits, and it puts me at ease while I'm far away. Bernadette has helped in my home in big and small ways, and my pets absolutely adore her (she throws the kitty love in as a bonus!). I trust her completely in my home, and am so happy she is available while I'm at work!

Ashley was great! She is very reliable and communicative. She showed up to feed my kitty like clockwork, twice a day. Whenever there was something to communicate she did, right away. My front gate was jammed one morning and she contacted me with suggestions about entering through the back. She was very respectful of my apartment and kept things neat. When I got back she offered to bring back my key without me asking for it, and came very quickly. The entire process was effortless. She is great. I highly recommend her!

Tessa was all we had hoped for to our 16 year old dog. He loved her from the start and she was intuitive and patient with him and his various older dog issues. She’s really easy to plan with and we hope she will help take care of him when we can’t for the rest of his life.

Jessica was very communicative and let us know about any issues such as the automatic cat feeder was unplugged. She also sent us pictures and videos and it was obvious that our kitties felt comfortable around her. She seems quite experienced and we definitely will try to book Jessica again in the future!

Holly took the best care of my two cats who both require meds in the mornings and evenings. She won over their hearts and trust so that insulin injections, pills and syringe meds all went well, with lots of snuggles and playtime. Thank you so much, Holly! 🐾🐾

Melody and Vicky came to our home so we could introduced our dog to them. Our dog usually takes days to trust new people. However, Bentley almost immediately warmed up to them both. 🤯 While we were traveling we received several pictures. We especially love the one of Bentley sleeping in their laps. My wife and I will definitely use Melody and Vicky in the future. We highly recommend these two dog lovers!

Absolutely an above and beyond sitter; she dog sat one of our pups that has behavioral health issues from prior abuse. I was worried all weekend how his care would be, but she handled this job with such ease. My dog liked her off the bat, which is a bit uncommon for him. She pet him, played with him, refilled his food and ensured water was there everyday. She even assisted in cleaning one plastic bottles that my dog got into when I was gone, she was so kind and respectful to the home. On top of her amazing work and compassion, she also gifted my doggie a bed, since he loves to destroy the many we buy him. Along with her kind gestures, she also provided pictures of my dog during her stay over with him. Overall she is an amazing sitter and I will love to have her again. I definitely look forward to booking her again for any future dog sitting.
