“Meghan was such an amazing sitter for our pup! She was super responsive and communicative throughout her whole stay. I had no worries while we were out of town that our sweet boy was well cared for. She’s the best so if you can have her take care of your pet, do it!”
“Kyle took great care of my pup over the weekend. He made sure my dog’s normal routine was followed and spent lots of time giving him attention. Would recommend and will be booking again in the future.”
“Cindy was wonderful. She took excellent care of our senior cats while we were away for the holidays. Kind, thorough, and very communicative, we knew she was taking great care of them so we could relax on our travels. Very grateful for that! Recommend Cindy highly!”
“Aidan was great! I left my anxious hound dog, Dean, in his care over a long weekend. He was very responsive, and proactive about sending updates with adorable pictures. Dean does not warm up to everyone, but was so sad when Aidan left and was stuck with me again. I'll be using him again in the future.”
“Emily is terrific. She did such a great job watching our pup. Our dog experiences pretty bad separation anxiety and typically doesn’t eat all his meals when we are away - but with Emily he did! She was absolutely wonderful and we will most definitely be reaching out to her again!! She sent us pictures daily, kept the house tidy and was simply great to have. Thanks again Emily for the great experience!”
“Averi took excellent care of our dog Rocco and our home while we were away for a long weekend! She was very accommodating and Rocco was so relaxed when we got home! 10/10!”
“Kyla was so incredible! She sent frequent updates throughout the weekend and gave me such peace of mind while I was away from my pet! Can't recommend her enough!”
“Jordyn was great! She was available super last minute July4th weekend. We set up a meet and greet same day and I was able to show her the routine for my pup and she followed it to a tee. She gave me consistent updates and communication regarding my pup! I felt super comfortable with her caring for him and he loved her. She also was super respectful of my place. I highly recommend her!”
“Emma was great!! We felt really comfortable leaving Leo with her. She sent tons of updates and pictures and also took great care of our house (she even washed our bed sheets for us!). We came back and Leo seemed really happy and healthy. I recommend her 100%! Thanks Emma!!”
“Alex took great care of our two dogs! He sent daily updates and photos. Our dogs really enjoyed their time with him. He left the house clean and tidied up. Very happy with the care our dogs got while we were gone, especially our senior!”
“Thane was great! Our pups and cat were well taken care of and our house was just as we left it! Communication was great and loved all of the pictures that were sent as well - would definitely book again!”
“Kali is my go-to dog sitter. She always does great with my little Morty Mouse whether its boarding or in-home sitting. She is reliable, communicative, and a true animal lover. Morty knows her by name and always feel safe and loved when we go out of town. Hire Kali and your pets will be loved just like youre at home”
“Once again, Daniel has gone above & beyond to care for our doggos whole house sitting, one of whom currently requires extra medical attention and TLC. Knowing he is caring for them takes a huge mental weight off of travel.”
“Cat was amazing with both of my pets (cat and dog)!! She kept me updated and I felt so comfortable having her at my house for the weekend. She clearly cared for my animals and was kind and flexible. Highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for even longer than 2 years but have also been working at a dog walking company for 2 years now and have experience with many breeds and ages I’m currently a full time student so I prefer taking care of pets for people on the weekends and during times of the year when classes are out. Whatever you need me to do for your pet I can do just communicate that to me, really anything from medication to playing around I can do.
“Emily did an incredible job taking care of our dog Pepper! She was happy to assist us with a last minute house sitting request when the family members who were originally going to watch our dog had to cancel for a personal matter. Even prior to being formally booked, Emily was quick to respond and receptive to the specific needs of our dog. We were able to set up a meet-and-greet between Emily and Pepper a few days before the house sitting, and it was clear that Emily was the right choice - our dog can be hesitant around new people, but she quickly warmed up her new friend. On the day of our departure, Emily arrived early enough for us to hand over our house keys safely and within 5 minutes of us being out the door we had our first update that Pepper was happily cuddling with Emily on our couch. On the following days, Emily provided regular picture & text updates about how our dog was doing and it was clear the two of them were getting along great. We couldn't be happier - thank you!”

Gambles Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jasmine sat with Roxy for a last minute request. Our flight was late and we needed someone to stay with her for a few hours. She sent us a photo of Roxy and was super professional. The good news is that she lives in our neighborhood. I will definitely use her services in the future. Excellent care of Roxy!
Excellent caretaker for Roxy. We went to Aruba on vacation and Cindy stayed at our house. She was thoughtful and did a meet and greet a week prior to our vacation. Roxy loves her. She kept in contact with us throughout the trip. She noticed that Roxy had a chronic cough and notified us. She took her to the vet and Roxy was treated with medications. Cindy was able to give her the medicines and keep her safe and comfortable. She also washed our towels and cleaned the kitchen. She is a pure joy and we are grateful for Cindy. Definitely, more than 5 stars!
One word to describe Christine and that is AWESOME. She took care of my 4 month old puppy for my first time leaving her and she nailed it. She kept me updated with the cutest photos and I could tell right away she was loving and caring for my little girl. She even helped with training as we are in a puppy class. I will use Christine in all my future pet sitting needs as long as she is available, as I hope she always is for me.
Kali is my go-to dog sitter. She always does great with my little Morty Mouse whether its boarding or in-home sitting. She is reliable, communicative, and a true animal lover. Morty knows her by name and always feel safe and loved when we go out of town. Hire Kali and your pets will be loved just like youre at home
I can’t say enough good things about Rebecca. House and dog sitting our Corgi, she is always communicative, enthusiastic, and willing to do whatever needs to be done outside of pet care, like tending to our small garden. Telly loves her and even gets to hang out with her own Corgi, Waffles. We got daily photos and updates, which made leaving so much easier. Thank you, Rebecca! ❤️
Emma was great!! We felt really comfortable leaving Leo with her. She sent tons of updates and pictures and also took great care of our house (she even washed our bed sheets for us!). We came back and Leo seemed really happy and healthy. I recommend her 100%! Thanks Emma!!
