“Leah was great and took great care of our 3 dogs. We highly recommend house sitting! She was extremely respectful to our home and left no trace! Our dogs loved her and we hope to book again with her soon!”


“Danny was such an amazing sitter for my dog! He played with her a ton and gave her lots of attention. He also did an excellent job caring for a medical issue that popped up right before I left. Danny left the house spotless and my dog happy, and I can't recommend him enough!”


“Holly was absolutely amazing! This was the first time I’ve used Rover for my pets and I’ll definitely be booking with her again. She sent great updates and pictures during her stay and left my house/yard cleaner than it was before!”


About: I have had animals all my life, dogs and cats. I have been pet sitting for about three years now but for family and friends. I have a dog of my own she is a Chihuahua, and she is my little baby. I'm extremely responsible, I'm a student athlete so in the summer time I have a-lot of free time. So thats when I try to Pet sit the most. I love spending my time with animals, and will do a great job of taking care of your fur babies. I am a basketball player so I have nearly the whole day to work around your schedule! I am not working a job and I plan to take care of the animals on my break from my sport! I will not be able to bring any animals to my house for care because I have two other dogs but I can crate the dogs, walk them, take them to the dog park. Anything the customers would like without having the dog stay at my house.

“Gail is absolutely amazing!! She managed my 3 larger dogs with ease, communicated frequently with updates, and even cleaned up the house before I arrived home! 10/10 recommend!!”

“Lynda is incredible. She wrangled my motley crew with ease and sent beautiful pics that showed her connection with each of their personalities.”



“Jill was wonderful! Even though we had 4 foster kittens on top of our 3 cats and 3 dogs everything went amazing! We had no stress and the Animals loved her! She was great at communicating every day and our house was perfect when we came home. The fact that she had experience in the veterinary field made us even more confident to leave these litter kittens with her.”


“Emily was fantastic! She took great care of our pets (2 dogs and a cat) and our home while we were out of town. Everyone got lots of cuddles, walks and play time. She was great with communication and we will absolutely be asking her to watch our pets and home again!”


“Sarah was easy to communicate with and made sure we had time to meet prior to the hire date. My Boy (chocolate lab) seemed content and happy when we returned. The house was clean and the linens stripped. She sent photos and responded quickly when I checked in. I would definitely ask Sarah to house sit again.”


“Jen came to the rescue at the last minute, agreeing to watch Ollie after I had several cancellations. She was very communicative throughout, and I couldn't be more grateful for her help.”


“Cam is phenomenal! My dog absolutely loved him and I could tell he took great care of her. She even started whining when he left! The house was clean when I returned and everything was in good shape. Cam even communicated some odd behavior he witnessed in my dog. Overall we had a great experience and would strongly recommend Cam to others!”


“Lindsey did an amazing job. We have three difficult dogs, who can be a lot even for us and she handled them well and made sure they were comfortable. We will definitely be using Lindsey again and I highly recommend her. She also kept the house clean and even stripped the sheets from The bed!”


About: I have been looking after dogs for years, and I have yet to meet a pup I don't love! I will take wonderful care of your pup, and am almost always at home. On the rare event I run out for an errand, your dog can stay indoors, outdoors, or come along. I have a bernedoodle named Maggie, and she loves to play with other dogs. I often watch an older dog named Fernie. She likes to stay in the house. Dogs I watch have the option to stay outside in the fenced yard, or to go inside. I have outdoor cameras, so I can see what the dogs are doing even if indoors. I live in a rural area, on a dirt road with very low traffic. My neighbors are very dog friendly. I will take your dog on at least one walk a day, if you would like. I groom and bathe my own dog, and am comfortable giving your dog a bath during his stay if you would like. However, I am not comfortable grooming your pup. Your dog will get a lot of attention and love. I am a rule follower and will make sure any special diets and medical needs are looked after. Thank you for considering staying with Maggie and me! My husband Shane also lives with us, but will be at work most days. He also loves dogs! On weekends and in the summer I am always here and with the dogs. When working (teaching) Maggie stays in her 10 by 30 foot kennel. Your dog would stay with Maggie. There is a home made dog house that is VERY nice. It's like a mini human home with insulation and heating. We have a fenced yard. Our property is over 10 acres, and in the evening we allow our dog to play outside in the open. We live in a quiet, rural area off a dirt road. If you do not want your dog in an unfenced yard, s/he can stay in the fenced area.

“Jestine took great care of our two dogs, fish, and home while we were away for a week. She sent us daily check-ins with photos and videos which we appreciated. Our home was left clean and pups were happy. We highly recommend Jestine!”


“Came home to a happy dog and clean house 😊 Larkin did a great job with our dog and sent pictures while we were away. We could tell that he had a great time and felt at ease with Larkin!”


“Charlie was great! When he came to meet the dogs he seemed very comfortable with all the noise and confusion. He had no problems managing three dogs, two of whom are young and very high energy. He very kindly agreed to stay an extra night when it looked like we might not make it home in time (as it turned out he didn't have to). He even reminded me about medication the dogs needed that I had forgotten to mention. I would definitely recommend him.”


“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter. She and Cleo were great together. And she graciously accommodated details that were changing at the last minute.”


“Leo had so much fun with Meaghan! We appreciated her regular updates, even during a busy holiday.”


About: I grew up on a farm taking care of a variety of animals. Now as an adult, I am the go to person to take care of friends and family members pets and animals when they go out town or need a house sitter. Administering medication or special care is something I’m comfortable with, because of my experience on the farm and working in healthcare. I do work a full time job; I am happy to house sit and take care of the animals before work and after work. I am available to dog walk after work and weekends as well. I have a fenced field to play in; there are usually cows and sheep in there. I have 2 very friendly dogs who love other dogs. There is a walking path near by we can take walks on. I have extra large wire kennels with dog beds; if required, or requested. However, I don’t use them once my dogs are trained. They are more for kennel training. I will follow the lead of the owner and what is best for their dog.
