“Elizabeth stayed at our house to pet sit for our senior kitty. Elizabeth gave picture updates and was communicative the entire time while we were away. When we arrived, our kitty had clearly gotten tons of care and attention! The house was also kept clean and tidy just like when we left. Will definitely be using Elizabeth on future trips!”

“Chloe was a great sitter for our dog and two cats. She was very communicative and sent a lot of photos which helped us feel at ease while we were away. Our dog barks a lot when he meets people but she seemed totally unfazed and he warmed up to her quickly. We would definitely book with her again!”

“Monty provided wonderful care for Jello while I was out of the country. They were super responsive when I checked in and sent photos most days, which I really appreciated. They were also great about adapting to my 15 month old’s puppy energy and zoomies, which is no easy feat. Would absolutely book with Monty again.”

“Sonjia was quick to step in and help house sit my dog when my sitter fell thru last minute. I appreciated so much how thoughtful and detailed oriented she was. It gave me piece of mind to know my pup was in good hands!”

I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits M-F; afternoon & evening vists Sat & Sun. Overnight services also available. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal home routine as much as possible to help minimize their stress, from walks to playtime to litterbox maintenance. I can also administer pills & topical medications if needed.
“Brooke took excellent care of our dog and cat at our place while we were away for a week. She communicated frequently with any updates or issues and went above and beyond on the last day when there was a lockout/spare key incident. We and our pets would be happy to have her stay again.”


“Cheryl did an exceptional job staying at my house with my dog. My dog is acting like I never left, which shows she was comfortable the entire time. Bonus- the house was spotless. Thanks Cheryl!”

“Madelynn did a great job caring for our babies! She frequently sent us pictures, videos and updates, which we really appreciated. Each time she sent us pics and videos, our babies looked happy and relaxed. We are so grateful to her!”

“Mindy was extremely kind to our reactive pup. She made time to meet with us prior to her stay at our house. She sent updates and managed multiple medications for our dog. Our house was clean, and our plants were happy. Excited to have found a unicorn dog/house sitter!”

“Khalifa took the absolute best and very spontaneous care of our two dogs. She’s absolutely trustworthy, super communicative. Always kept me updated about my baby’s and they were so happy. I highly recommend her!”

“Highly recommend Martha! This was my first time leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know, and she put all my worries to bed after the meet and greet. Sent daily pictures and messages, so I knew my dog was having a nice time :) Very attentive to the details I laid out and responsive to any questions or concerns I had throughout the entire experience and left my house just like it was when she arrived. I would book her again and would easily recommend her to anyone else!”

“Hanna took care of our 3 animals in home. She asked detailed questions and communicated frequently while we were away. She is trustworthy and reliable. Would recommend 100%.”

About: I am a highly athletic and dependable pet sitter and walker. I have worked with petite yorkies all the way up to great pyrenes. I believe in positive reinforcement and transparency. Let me know how I can best serve your pet(s)! I am available Friday-Sunday, and most mornings. I like to be active and can run dogs for 30 minutes, or walk for an hour at a time. I grew up in a household where we walk our dogs twice daily, no exceptions. I believe physical and mental exercises are necessary for all animals we share our homes with.
“Sarah was a wonderful dog sitter in my home. She communicated well and even helped out when my landlord needed to drop by. Dogs were happy and the house was clean. Thank you, Sarah!”

“Ryan was great! My puppy Clyde loved the visit as he got a walk and plenty of attention. Ryan sent photos throughout the day and we were happy with the visit. Will definitely be booking Ryan in the near future. Thanks Ryan!”

“Jennifer is just the sweetest and took such great care of my babies, one who is recovering from a broken leg. I was a little bit nervous about leaving him but Jennifer reassured me throughout her stay. She sent pics and catch ups and took excellent care of my house. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”

About: I am a flexible, reliable dog owner and lover. I understand the amount of energy dogs can have, and I work to meet their individual needs. I love getting to know each dog's unique personality. I am available many days of the week to take care of your babies while you are away at work. I also have an older dog with special needs, so I am understanding of dogs with disabilities or medical needs, and I know how scary it can be to leave your senior dogs with someone new. I am available to take your dog on plenty of walks through out the day to ensure that they are getting the exercise and attention they need. I have taken care of dogs for many years and I understand how important they are to a family, so I strive to treat everyone's dog as my own. I have toys and leashes and treats so that all my dogs have a great time, and to make drop off and pick up easy on the owners! I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I can be available according to your dog's regular routine and needs. I like to stick to the dog's regular routine as closely as possible. I like to learn about the dog and it's owner so that I understand their usual routine, so that we can stick to what they are used to as closely as possible to minimize seperation anxiety and prevent any schedule disruptions.
“Karen was amazing! She made sure our senior pup was taken care of with lots of little walks and timely medication. She stayed at our house, kept it super tidy, and made sure our old lady felt loved while we were away. We will definitely use Karen again!!!”

Gentilly Woods pet parents share their Rover experiences
Adam is a very caring person who watched over our standard poodle and our house for over 2 weeks. He is very communicative. We got lots of videos and messages about how things were going. He played with the dog a lot and took him for great walks. We would absolutely use his services again!

Marion was incredible with my high needs dogs who have reactivity issues and special needs. She was so kind and patient with their needs, and was super communicative with me and made me feel so comfortable. She went above and beyond in their care and in caring for my household too. My dogs loved her and so did I!

I never write reviews because I like to maintain my privacy. Nevertheless, it would be an absolute crime if i did not leave a review for Bianca. She is a top tier sitter. She created daily reports on how my fur babies did each day; sending me pictures throughout the day. She kept my house spotless, but most importantly my fur babies happy. She took them on multiple walks and I could tell they now miss her since we have returned. She will now be my 1st choice every time i use Rover. Thank you Bianca!

We had Caroline stay at our house and care for our very energetic one year old lab and our old man cat. She had no problem handing our dog’s high energy or our cat’s grumpiness. She took great care of them and our home. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Rebecca communicated with us promptly at all times. She was on time/early and went out of her way to make my wife and I and our furry friends feel like part of her family. I'd recommend her to anyone. 5 stars is t enough. 🤷♂️ Thank you Becca. Next time we're in N.O. we'll be reaching out. 👍👍

John was very communicative and took great care of my two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Photos or videos each day helped me feel less sad while away. Also, he watered my plants & took great are of my home. I highly recommend John & will call upon him in the future.
