“Minh was absolutely wonderful ! Had a last minute request for house sitting and it worked out well! Our 2 year old GSD adores her and I was amazed at how easily she got along with him. She is punctual , attentive , clean and easy to communicate with. I had updates and pics while I was gone . Came back from my trip to a happy pup! Highly recommended! Five stars all the way ! Thank you :)”

“We could not be happier with our decision to trust Larcy with our babies!! She house sat and watched our pups and cat while we were away for 2 weeks overseas, and we could not be more grateful for her. Larcy is incredibly communicative, responsible, attentive, and a great photographer for all the cute moments we missed while we were away! We had absolutely 0 worries while on our trip. We came home to a spotless house, a wonderful handwritten note and flowers, and a very very happy fam. Boots, Steve, and Mr. Chicken could not have been in better hands.”

“EJ's attention to detail was exceptional. She thoroughly reviewed the information about Tessie, asked questions, and made sure that she understood Tessi's routine, and the house. Tessie had a medical emergency that required a visit to the vet. EJ handled the issue proffessionaly and compasionately and made sure the Tessie got the proper treatment, kept me informed, and followed up with the appropriate treatment when they returned home. Tessie is doing well. Tessie was well cared for while I was away. The house was spotless. EJ was exceptional.”

“Matthew was awesome. My shy boy, William, took to him instantly. He has a new best friend. Bailey was very shy at first. Matthew was very patient and she eventually interacted with him more. I would highly recommend Matthew. He took very good care of my babies and our home.”

“Archie LOVES Lauren ◡̈ I had to go into the office all day and so I hired her to watch Archie while I was gone they played almost the whole time! She sent me pictures and videos throughout which made me feel at ease so I could focus on work! Archie is a high energy dog and she was able to handle him with ease! Showed up on time and understood everything she needed to know ◡̈ Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future! ◡̈”

“We were so grateful to have such excellent care of our dogs and our home while we were away. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs. The communication was great with lots of photos and updates. We would definitely book again!”

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with real, hands-on experience — I’ve had my dog for 10 years and I care for my two cats daily. I’m attentive, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I take care of my two cats and my dog daily, from feeding and cleaning to giving them attention, playtime, and exercise. Because caring for animals is something I’m used to and genuinely enjoy, adding pet sitting into my schedule fits smoothly and feels like an extension of what I already do. At home, I take care of my pets by keeping them on a consistent routine—feeding them on time, cleaning their spaces, giving them playtime, exercise, and lots of attention. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, maintain their pet’s usual routine, and keep the environment clean and calm. Whether at home or in a client’s home, I focus on giving each pet the same patience, care, and respect I give my own.
“Heather was amazing!!! My friend who was supposed to watch Luke had a last minute family emergency and I had to book Heather the night before I left. My buddy is 14 this month and had a bladder infection so I was going to cancel my trip until I met her and saw how comfortable Luke was. She took such incredible care of him making sure he finished his antibiotics and got all his supplements. I loved all the updates and photos. Highly recommend Heather for a senior dog or any dog you want well cared for. Thank you for allowing me the time to be with my family and not worry about my best buddy.”

“Mariana deserves 6 stars, she has set the bar very high. This was our fist experience with her and she exceeded all expectations! She is an excellent communicator and sent pictures and updates throughout the week. My pup had wonderful adventures and lots of great walks which she thrives on. In addition to giving my pup the best care, she found time to tidy up my house, which was such a great surprise when arriving home exhausted. I will definitely be a return customer for Mariana unless she is too busy after receiving this review for me to book her. She is simply the best! 🏆🥇”

“This was our first time needing to hire an in home dog sitter and Monique was incredible. She kept us informed on how our dog Marli was doing and we never felt like we had to worry while we were away. She sent daily photos of our fur child and just made the process easy and comfortable. Highly recommended.”

About: I grew up having and taking care of animals. We currently have a little farm at home so I’m well adept at caring for all types of animals. I love to give our critters massages and teach new tricks. I look forward to spoiling your furry friends too. I’m a full-time stay at home mom so my schedule is very flexible. It’s all about the animals. I love to get outside and spend time with the animals. I’m very confident with animals as they’ve always been part of my life. I can walk dogs, feed, play, scoop litter boxes etc. I’m very flexible and am comfortable with caring for just about any animal.
“My sweet dog Leo had the BEST experience with Rachel. It was his first overnight stay at another home, and his first experience spending time with other dogs. I was really nervous that there could be issues, but Rachel took great care of Leo, treating him as one of the family. Rachel is mature, patient, and really good at understanding your pet and making him/her feel comfortable and happy. Her hubby loves dogs too, and Leo liked him right away. Leo's time at Rachel's expanded his world and gave him new confidence. I received daily updates with photos which enabled me to relax and really enjoy my time away. I contacted 7 other Rover sitters first, who all turned Leo down, but I am grateful that all those excuses led me to Rachel. What a find!”


About: Hi! I’m Jaylah, and I absolutely love caring for animals Whether your pets needs playtime, cuddles, structured walks, or just someone calm and loving to keep them company, I’m here for it! I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities—high-energy, shy, seniors, and everything in between. I understand how important routines are, and I always follow feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and make sure they feel loved and well-taken-care-of while you’re gone! I’m currently home for college break, so pet care fits very easily into my daily and weekly routine. I have lots of free time and flexible availability, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and companionship.

I always prioritize safety and provide updates so owners feel at ease!
“Just a short stay this time but we are looking forward to having Christina back soon. Already booked! Great communication & our animals well taken care of.”

About: Since I was born I’ve always had dogs in my life and have always loved them. I’ve dog sat for all different sizes, ages and personalities of dogs so I have quite a bit of experience! From day old puppies I had to bottle feed, to senior/blind dogs who need extra help getting around I’m happy to help. I work full time so I don’t have as much time, but I am happy to help out before and after my shifts and on my days off which do change. I am good with adapting to dogs different needs and can follow requirements that may be in place. Will make sure your dog has everything they need and keep them with what they are familiar with!

Matthew was awesome. My shy boy, William, took to him instantly. He has a new best friend. Bailey was very shy at first. Matthew was very patient and she eventually interacted with him more. I would highly recommend Matthew. He took very good care of my babies and our home.

We’re so grateful to have Rachel—this is her third time watching our two pups, and every time they are so well cared for and completely spoiled in the best way. She always makes sure they get plenty of treats, walks, and quality hangout time (they love their time with “Aunt Rachel”!). Not to mention, Rachel provides daily check ins with pictures or videos multiple times a day we never miss out on their adventures with Aunt Rachel. We feel totally at ease leaving them with her, and at this point she truly feels like part of our dog family. Highly recommend!

Michelle is the best! She took such good care of our boys while we were away! She sent us lots of pictures and updates, and was available anytime we needed. It can be really stressful to travel, but knowing our fur babies were being taken such good care of at home made our trip so much better. Thank you Michelle!

Chervyn helped with a relatively last minute sit during the holiday period. She was proactive, detail-oriented, and easy going with our shy old lady dog. Appreciated her updates throughout the stay as well. I will be reaching out to her for any future dog sitting needs going forward!

I wish every pet sitting experience was like the one Luca provided us with. Luca was so attentive and sweet with our 2 cats and 2 dogs, they were communicative, respectful of our home and animals, clean and organized, always so welcoming and caring. We came back to an organized and clean home, our pets seemed happy, we got updates and pictures as frequently as we requested, Luca was all around a lovely person and a trustworthy presence in our home! I look forward to booking with them again in the future!

This is the second time Ashley has watched my pets and 10/10 would recommend. She’s great with both my dog and antisocial cat. Whenever I go out of town if she’s available I’m having her watch the pets again. She has my dog laying on his back for tummy rubs and my cat eating, which is hard to do. They were happy and healthy both times I got back and she answered any time I needed to check in on my babies. I would highly recommend her.

Joanne was great. We booked her last minute when our usual dog sitter cancelled last minute. This was our first time using Rover and were a bit skeptical about letting a stranger in our home. She was flexible, a great communicator, and took great care of our fur baby and home. She even offered to come back the next morning if our flight plans changed. I will definitely reach out to Joanne again in the future and highly recommend her to care for your pets and home.
