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.

I adopted Lucy (4 year old Great Dane) in June 2025. I was hesitant to ask a Rover to look after such a big dog, but Dustin immediately assured me that he was familiar with large breeds. Our first meet-and-greet went amazingly! She took to him instantly and he went out of his way to make sure she knew she could trust him. I booked him over Thanksgiving and Christmas because I had to travel. I couldn’t be more thankful for him making himself available to help me out. He showed up reliably (despite celebrating his own holidays) and has been accommodating to my chaotic requests. A true saint and dog lover.

Michelle was wonderful and took such good care of my kitties. A couple unexpected things happened and Michelle stepped up and took care of them (like resetting the litter box, taking out the trash, and cleaning up some hairballs). She communicated with me consistently and took the best photos! I’d definitely love to have Michelle look after my kitties again.

Jaclyn did a great job taking care of my cats! Jaclyn was on time, or notified me if they were going to be late, communicated well with me, played with my cats a lot and gave them lots of love, and even helped out when ants came in due to the heat. I really appreciated Jaclyn’s help!

It was such a relief to come home knowing our boys were well taken care of. We will definitely check with him next time we have a need for someone to check in on our kids. Thank you so much!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family since high school. I have a dog, two cats, an 11-year old bunny, and two fish tanks. I will treat your animals as my own, and would love the opportunity to hang out with your pets! I have open availability, so I can walk your dog or drop in on your pets any time of day during the week and on weekends. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog who will be happy to keep your dog company. I have light-up collars I use at night for visibility as well.

About: I've had dogs my whole life and I currently have two large (70+ lb) dogs. I grew up with small to medium dogs and before my current pups, I dog/cat sat all manner of dogs and cats from friends and family. I am very detail oriented and attentive when providing care for pets in addition to have a calming presence that pets quickly grow fond of. I have experience with crate training, leash training and giving oral and topical medication. I have created extensive care documents for my own dogs and am happy to follow as many instructions for your pets. I have immense flexibility to check in on, walk and house sit your pets throughout the weekdays currently and for weekends, I would review requests on a case by case basis. I'm happy to visit your pets and help with feeding, walking or any other specific care you need while you're away. I really enjoy playing with dogs, especially if they like fetch! I enjoy really long walks and can even run with your dogs if your dog needs more exercise. Otherwise, I'm happy to cozy up with your pet and I can even stay overnight if needed.

This is Jessica’s second time sitting for our three cats and we couldn’t be luckier! She took wonderful care of the cats. She was a great communicator and sent us plenty of pictures, videos, and updates. She checked the litter box each time and was proactive with helping us troubleshoot. Just a cherry on top- she remembered from months ago that our cats are obsessed with Churus, and she brought them for them all week from her own stash (we had forgotten to restock)! Thanks again Jessica and would 100% rebook.

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Even tho I am new to the rover app I’ve been the go to pet sitter for friends and family for about 7 years now . I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I am mostly available Monday / Thursday after 6 pm , and fully available Friday / Sunday for boarding or drop ins , but could most definitely accommodate different times I currently don’t have any puppy’s of my own . I have a fenced yard for your puppy to play and explore and I also live blocks away from 2 separate parks where we could go on walks

About: I have been house and pet sitting for over 15 years. My love for animals is a core part of who I am and how I like to spend my time. I grew up around a wide variety of animals, such as dogs, cats, chickens, llamas, and horses, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From a young age I helped tend to our rotating family of 2–5 dogs at a time. This gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and life stages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors with special needs. I currently share my home with my two beloved cats (Ellie & Ripley, 6yo sisters), and I also help care for several neighborhood cats regularly. I understand that each cat has a unique personality and needs, and I'm happy to learn your kitty's special habits and routine. Your feline family members will be in experienced and loving hands. As a house sitter I am clean and respectful of all pet owners' privacy and personal space. I have prior experience managing properties, so I am familiar with a variety of home styles and their practical needs (e.g. keeping old houses cool in summer). I will take good care of your home so that you have one less worry while traveling. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medication management, or just lots of playtime and cuddles, I bring genuine care and a lifetime of experience to every visit. Your pets won't just be looked after, they'll be loved. My husband and I take care of our own two pets every day. We're very proactive about refreshing water dishes and litter boxes, as well as enforcing everyone's diet and feeding schedule. I also help care for my neighborhood outdoor cat colony. We help keep them fed and safe. I treat my client's home with respect and privacy, prioritizing your pets comfort and routines. I'm happy to play with them or just give them some quiet company while you are away and they are missing you.

Emily was an awesome cat sitter for our two week vacation! She was a great communicator, quick to respond, and always kept us updated with lots of photos and videos. It’s always hard leaving our cats for that long, but Emily gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were cared for, loved, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We’re so grateful we found her. 10/10 would recommend, and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!

It's clear the amount of care and undertanding Jandy has of animals with the way she interracted with my cat. Not only does she spend significant time getting to know them and ensuring the human that their fur baby is in good hands, she also built my cat a blanket fort for enrichment while I was gone. It was very sweet and I know my cat was in good hands.

On top of caring so well for my cat she gathered my mail, watered plants, put out the trash cans and change lighting in the house every day. Will definitely hire her again.
