“Carly was AMAZING! It was our first time having a pet sitter stay in our house and it was for an extended period of time. Finding a reliable and trustworthy sitter was my main concern for our trip, but Carley alleviated all of my concerns. She sent regular photos and updates, and we came back to our home in perfect condition. All of the animals love her and I already have her booked for our next trip!”

“Haley did everything that I asked of her and more. She was extremely responsive, sent many photos, and provided constant updates which made me as a pet parent extremely happy to know that my pup was in good hands. The house was in perfect condition when I got back home as well. Will definitely re-book again! Thank you Haley!”

“It's always hard to leave the old boy, but Marie was outstanding and kept Bentley safe and warm as well as providing a constant presence. Marie is a neat and conscientious house guest and I would not hesitate to ask her back again.”

“Heather is a top-shelf pet sitter who goes above and beyond to keep pets happy and well cared for. She house-sat for about 10 days for my 2 cats, one of whom has chronic illnesses and is shy. She quickly ingratiated herself with both boys more effectively than any other family member, friend or pet professional ever has done. She is highly organized and focused, paying attention to details to provide the best care for them. I came home to 2 happy and healthy boys and a spotless house. I think they will miss her. I would not hesitate to use her services again.”


“Breanna was awesome! She took great care of our very much loved dogs. She even sent us updates and pictures! We’d definitely ask her to care for our dogs again. Total professional!”


“Sophia stayed with our three pups during the blizzard week. Not only were our fur babies well cared for, she did an outstanding, above and beyond job caring for our home. We would absolutely have her come stay again! Highly recommend.”

“We had just gotten our puppy and needed a sitter to watch him two days later. Cassie was fantastic; she had no issues watching him in our home and was even nice enough to bring him back to her home where she has a fenced in backyard! She provided photos and updates throughout the day and we will definitely book her again!”

About: I have watched many family members and family friends pets. I have experience in watching multiple dogs and also staying overnights. I have worked in a vet clinic at my technical Highschool I was previously in for about 2 years. I also worked at the vet clinic over the summer as well. A previous job I have had required for me to watch 8 Standard poodles. I currently do not have a job so I have plenty of time during the week and weekend to help any owner in need of pet sitting. I am unable to care for pets at my home but I am able to stay at a clients house whether it’s just for the day or a week. Overnights are a simple task for me and I’m more than happy to do it.
“Kailey was wonderful with my dog Fraser (who can be rambunctious!) over multiple weekends. She was reliable and cared for Fraser well following all of our instructions and keeping him company. I definitely recommend Kailey to anyone who needs a dog-sitter!”

“Heather is professional, knowledgeable, responsible, mature, well-spoken, kind and caring. She took superior care of our dogs and left our home immaculate after home siting for us.”

“Laura was wonderful! She provided updates on our pups while we were away and sent us a group of photos! She even took one of our puppies on a mini field trip to Bass Pro Shop. Would definitely recommend :)”


About: I’m a travel nurse without any animals who wants to love on yours! I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 3 years old, up to 3 dogs at a time. I trained my puppy while I was in high school and have loved on dogs through their old age as well. I worked at a doggy daycare for a few summers while I was in college. I work 10 hours shift during the week, however I am free in the evenings after 6pm and have one free day during the week. I am always available on the weekends. I understand that all dogs have their own routine, needs & quirks! I am very thorough with the care I provide and will love them like my own! I have experience in dogs with medical needs such as giving them oral meds & injections as well as post-op recovery care.
“Nicole was a dream come true for us! Our 11 year old labradoodle instantly liked her, I hired her on the spot to watch Lucy for 4 nights while we were away. Our pup has some medical issues and needs medication, Nicole felt totally comfortable with all her needs and I left without a worry. She sent tons of pictures of their time together. When we got home everything was as we left it! I highly recommend Nicole and know without a doubt that I will be using her again!”

“Kiley took fabulous care of our dog, two cats, and home! She was incredibly communicative and thoughtful with her messages. She left our home in wonderful shape after house-sitting for a few days and concluded her stay with a photoshoot of all our little fur babies. Thank you, Kiley!”

“Sam took wonderful care of Frank while we were away for the weekend! She sent us lots of updates and pictures, was very patient and understanding of his special quirks and gave him lots of love and attention!”

Forestdale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carley was amazing and we will definitely hire her again! We were a last minute booking and she responded very quickly, coming out for a meet and greet the same day. She exudes competence and love for animals. We have 2 dogs, a cat and chickens. She took great care of them all, sent regular photos and clearly became good friends with the dogs and cat. She was so tidy and respectful of the house. Overall, she was a delight and we are so glad we found her!
Heather was excellent with my dog! He can be a little bit nervous having a new person around. She was extremely patient with him, and he was able to warm up to her and truly enjoy his time the couple of days that I was traveling! She kept me updated with lots of pictures, videos and detailed updates. He got all the companionship he needed to be comfortable as well as enough exercise that kept him tired and happy. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog!

Haley did everything that I asked of her and more. She was extremely responsive, sent many photos, and provided constant updates which made me as a pet parent extremely happy to know that my pup was in good hands. The house was in perfect condition when I got back home as well. Will definitely re-book again! Thank you Haley!

Brittany took great care of our chocolate lab Hope once again! Hopey was very happy throughout the trip and when we returned home the house was neat and tidy. Brittany also took in the barrels and mail…those little things that make a difference! Thanks again, Brittany!
