“Danielle is remarkable. My shy and anxious puppy was snuggling in her lap in no time. I got regular updates with photos, so I had peace of mind. Danielle is also very punctual, easy to work with, and a great communicator”
“Kelsey did a great job, gave me daily feedback and photos of my pup. My house was so clean when I got home and the bed linens were in the washer. Who could ask for more!! I will definitely have Kelsey back!”
“Michaela did an amazing dog with our dog and cat. Our cat was just getting over a sickness and our dog was adopted one week before she came to sit for us. She eased this anxious pet parents mind and sent me updates daily on our sweet boys. We will definitely be booking again in the future ☺️”
“My cat, Foster, is very needy and any little thing upsets him so I decided to schedule a house sitter rather than drop-in visits. Malika was great, sending pictures and making sure both Foster and I were okay. :-) I will be sure to reach out to her again when I travel!”

We were in a last minute pinch when our sitter cancelled and she blew us away! She is our new “go-to” dog sitter!!! We got many pictures and texts. Our hearts were so happy while we were on vacation knowing she was taking such good care of our pup. Don’t hesitate in booking her!”
“Cathy is fantastic!!! We have booked her three times to take care of our labs for overnights. We recently added a 3rd lab to the mix and Cathy came to do a meet and greet. She is very patient and responsive. She is our “go to” Rover pet sitter!!!! We will most definitely book her again!”
“Sofia was exceptional! She really went over and beyond and it’s so obvious she loves animals! Jagger was definitely in great hands and we cannot thank you enough for helping us take care of our dog while we were gone! We will use her again and recommend her services!”

“She really cared about Arlo and did a good job caring for him. Took action when he got sick and took him to the emergency room for me. Prompt responses when I reached out to me. Apologetic for any mishaps. Clear communication.”
About: I have worked in veterinary services for 5 years. I have a wide variety of veterinary medicine experience. I graduated Vet Tech school in 2020. I will care for your pets like they are my own. I work Monday-Friday 8am-5pm. I can do drop in visits before work at 7 am. I have my lunch break from 12pm-1pm, depending on location I can do a dog walk or a drop in visit during that time. I can also do drop in or dog walks after work during the time of 5pm-8pm. On the weekends I am free anytime, and can do home stays. I do overnight home visits only on the weekends, but do not have pets stay in my home. I can feed/water, clean litterboxes, and walk pets. I can also stay with the pets for a negotiable amount of hours to play/socialize with them. And any other services if agreed upon.
About: I have two large dogs of my own that are special needs and high maintenance. I have 5+ years of experience taking care of them and making sure their needs are met. I have also taken care of high maintenance cats. My pet care experience mostly consists of dogs and cats that are old, ill, high anxiety, or poorly behaved. Because of this I guarantee that I can handle any requests you may have! I work at a coffee shop part time. I work mornings 8-1 on Fridays and Saturdays. I work 12-6 on Mondays. I can take care of pets basically any time other than these hours! I provide pets with food, water, love, and care. I clean up after them and give them lots of attention. I give them pets when wanted and anything else they need.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old—over 13 years now! Growing up with two Yorkie-Bichon mixes and having a grandfather who’s a veterinarian, I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I’ve dogsat for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for everything from tiny Malteses to large black Labs. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. In addition to pet care, I’ve babysat and housesat for years, so I’m highly responsible and dependable. I currently work a corporate job, but I’m passionate about animals and excited to use pet sitting as a way to stay connected to what I love most—caring for pets with warmth and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work remotely half the week, which allows me to be home with pets for most of the day. On in-office days, I use my lunch break to check in and give them attention. My weekends are completely free, so I can dedicate even more time to caring for and playing with your pets. Whether in my home or a client’s, I create a calm, loving, and safe environment for pets. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walking, and any medications or routines. I’m respectful of the pet’s comfort and needs, and always treat them like family. Their well-being is my top priority, and I make sure they feel secure, loved, and cared for every step of the way.
“Emma is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever used. We have a lab with cancer who requires pills 3x a day as well as a 16 year old Shih Tzu with advanced arthritis and seizures who also requires pills and drops throughout the day. Additionally, he is a very picky eater and is known to go on “hunger strikes” when we leave him to travel. Emma never missed a dose for either dog despite all of this and she got the older dog to eat twice a day every day. He usually loses weight when we are gone, but with Emma, he actually put on a pound! We came home to a spotless house and two healthy and very happy dogs. They actually walked around the house looking for Emma for a couple days after we got home. Emma was so good we actually moved our next trip to a week she is available. Do yourself a favor, stop looking for a dog sitter and book Emma!”
“Megan was so wonderful to our pets! She stayed in our home and took such great care of them. She is responsible, responsive, and caring. Our dogs were in great loving hands, got lots of play time and walks! We will be using her again.”
About: Hi!!! My name is Jessica and I am a registered veterinary technician with 15 years of experience working in a day veterinary clinic, as well as an emergency night/weekends/holidays clinic. I have been petsitting for about 10 years and love caring for animals, and can't imagine doing anything else with my life!!! I have one two cats of my own, and I am obsessed with my children. :) Why I love pet sitting I have been an animal lover since I was little! I have always had dogs, and most of them have been mutts from the pound or rescues. I can't imagine my life without them, or doing anything else for a career! I love pet sitting because it allows me to interact with many different animals. My experience administering medication Yes, I am comfortable giving any oral or injectable medications as needed. I currently work second shift at an animal ER on Sunday/Monday/Tuesdays. I am off the rest of the week, and would be available anytime those days. I will treat your babies like they are my own. Since I have many years of nursing experience, I can also take care of elderly pets or pets with special needs.

Jessica H.
“ Jessica has been pet sitting for my Boston terrier, Otis, since he was 4 months old as well as my 2 year old Beagle, Sage. She not only cares for them while at home but brings them with her to work, which happens to be at a vet! Upon meeting her, her love for dogs shines through and not once have I worried about leaving my babies with her. (And believe me, I tend to worry about them!) Whether it's an overnight stay or a week, Jessica has been available every time I've needed her to watch them. She will treat your pets like her own, even letting them sleep with her in bed if you so choose! Not having to board my dogs and leave them with her has been a life saver, and there is nothing else I would rather do. If you are looking for someone who is genuine, caring, and fun, Jessica by far surpasses everything I had ever hoped and expected! -Collette, Peoria, IL”
Germantown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Paige was really great with our two dogs. She went above and beyond when our Lab got a UTI the night before we left. Paige was able to pick up her medication last minute and help her feel comfortable while we were gone. We will be asking her to stay again for sure!
This was our first time working with Abigail and she was amazing. She house sat for us while we were out of town for the weekend. She was always checking in letting us know when she saw the girls and how they were doing. Sent lots of pics as well. Highly recommend her to anyone!
Ninette was amazing! She took great care of our two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (including a puppy). She was a wonderful house sitter too and we came back to a house that looked better than when we left it :). She even helped our neighbor out when he mistakenly forgot to close his back door and his dog was running loose in the neighborhood. We will definitely be hiring her for any of our pet sitting/ house sitting needs in the future!!
