“Wonderful! Very attentive to my poodles. Helped to address a food issue when one of mine went on a hunger strike. Very respectful of my home. She stayed for 3 days and 2 nites. Great communication! Love her!!”

“From walks to long weekends sitting at our home. Matt has been such a great sitter for our boy. He always send us pictures and updates of what they did and found our place just as spotless as when we left, he even did the laundry on the linens and towels he used. Would recommend him 1000%”

About: I have fostered and trained a puppy for an entire summer and am the designated dog sitter for my neighbors back at my home town! I am free in the afternoons Monday-Friday and all day during the weekends! I walk 5 miles everyday and would love to bring some dogs along with me! I used to have a dog at home that I would walk 3 times a day and feed him twice a day. I used to dog sit for a Doberman and loved it. I am comfortable with all types of dogs!
“Nichole is really wonderful to work with - friendly, professional, flexible, responsible, and communicative. Super grateful for her last minute support :)”

“Z’le did an amazing job caring for our pups while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon. She watched them for 3 weeks. They had a bit of a hard time adjusting at first, but Z’le comforted them and really took charge of the situation! Absolutely recommend!!”

About: Ive grown up caring for dogs since I was a kid. 8 years ago I had the pleasure of becoming a dog mom to a German Shepherd. I will often also take care of my brothers herding dog at the same time. I am used to caring for two large dogs at the same time including walking them twice a day. I often dog sit for family and friends over the last 6 years, including dogs and cats. My own GSD struggles with separation anxiety and social anxiety so I have become really good over the years of prioritizing walk times that will ease his stress. I am happy to accommodate to any time a fur baby may need their walk times adjusted to reduce other animal interaction. My GSD is around 100lbs and often gets excited, so I am more than able to handle any size dog that may get excited for anything even squirrels! I am a full time grad student but around that schedule I have time most mornings and evenings to walk and play with all animals. I am open to animal sitting most nights depending on my exams for that week. I can easily crate dogs due to experience crating my own dogs. I am comfortable feeding all diets to any animals, giving baths, walks, etc.
“Wow, I can not believe the great job that she did and will definitely be using her services again. I was left a little in a predicament when another sitter backed out in me just 3 days before I was supposed to be gone for a week. Denise answered my last minute plea for help and we did a meet and greet with the animals. She did a great job taking care of them and I am sure they will miss her especially Coco, who she always took on walks. I highly recommend her.”

“Second time Lindsay has watched our 2 kittens and dog. She does an excellent job communicating and making sure everyone is well cared for and loved while we’re away!”

“We recently hired Ana for pet sitting; and, we couldn't be happier with our experience. She took care of our dogs for several days in our home and was truly exceptional. When one of our dogs unexpectedly had a seizure while we were away, Ana acted quickly and called me. I contacted our vet, and they advised us to bring him in. Ana carried him to the car, drove to the vet, and then described the event to the doctor. The doctor decided to keep our dog for the rest of the day. After being cleared to go home, Ana picked him up and brought him home. Thankfully, our dog was fine for the remainder of our trip. Additionally, we returned to a spotless house. Ana had cleaned everything, picked up after the dogs in the yard, and even washed her sheets before we got back. We highly recommend her services!”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs. They have been a part of my life throughout adulthood. Having pets in my family has been a significant part of life. Currently, I’m a mom to 2 cats. I bond with animals easily. I currently have a full-time job. I’m available evenings and weekends. My kids are adults so I have free time to spend with your pets. I’m available to care for your pets in their home. I enjoy walking dogs. I can possibly go to your home during my lunch hour. I work from home on Wednesday’s and Friday’s.

“William is awesome. He took great care of Brooklyn, was super responsive and communicative, and respectful of the house. Very professional. Also took amazing pics of Brooklyn and should consider a second career as a pet photographer”

“Samuel was fantastic!! We have never left our girls with anyone but family before, so Samuel came for a meet and greet before we booked and he put us at ease. Both dogs really liked him from the start. He stayed at our house for 3 nights and sent multiple pictures and updates every day! It really helped us to enjoy our vacation knowing the girls were in good hands!! Thanks Sam!! A+++++”

“Kadence is an amazing sitter! I have four adorable fur babies, and they can be quite challenging, but Kadence handled everything with ease. I can't wait to book her again for our pet care needs she's simply the best!”

“Braydon was an excellent communicator and went above and beyond by mopping up muddy footprints left by 4 dogs. He sent lots of pictures and regularly checked in with me to let me know how things were going. I would definitely recommend Braydon to any one who needs dog walker and or house sitter.”

“Ursula was absolutely amazing! We needed someone last minute to come watch our 7 year old pit, and she was very fast to respond, came to do a meet and greet immediately and she was so sweet, great with Nala and made me feel very confident in my decision to have her watch our baby! She had to administer a tranquilizer to our girl because of storms and she did exactly as we said, so for anyone that has animals with medicine Ursula was amazing with our dog! I will be using Ursula as much as I can from now on, she was so reliable and our puppers really loved her! Highly recommend using her! ?”
Forest Oak pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were nervous for someone we didn’t know to pet and housesit. Steven did two visits with us and our pets to make sure we all felt comfortable. Upon returning home from vacation, our pets were happy to see us but they didn’t seem overly excited or stressed. This was a good sign that our pets were relaxed with Steven while we were away. We will be asking Steven to sit for us again in the future. Very happy with his care of our pets and home.

Monserrath was absolutely great! Kept us updated on how the pups were doing, giving each of them attention, and with 5 dogs, she had her hands full. She also provided us with great pup report cards at the end of her stay, noting behaviors, eating, and little details on how each pup did during her stay. We hope to use Monserrath again in the future!

Stephanie is such an amazing person to rely on for help with your pets. Since moving to San Antonio, we have struggled to find a pet sitter we can trust with our cat and elderly dog. Stephanie took the time to meet with us and go over each detail about caring for them. She was extremely communicative and respectful of our home. She is also extremely knowledgeable about pets in general. We’re so grateful to have met her, and we look forward to working with her again. Thank you, Stephanie!
