Arianna was wonderful, and Piper seemed to really warm up to her and enjoy herself while we were gone. We're thankful for the communication and that the house was left clean after her stay. We will look forward to hiring Arianna again in the future!

I am happy to say this was a top notch experience! Madison was good about communicating, was prompt, sent me pics of my dogs and I was able to get away and not be worried about my Axel and Penny. Very grateful to have found Rover and Madison.

Simon was so amazing and took care of our fur babies like they were his own. It’s hard for us to trust people with our pups, but we felt so at ease with the updates during the day and end of day recaps too. They loved him so much and even our cats quickly warmed up to him too (they’re selective). Already booked Simon again and would highly suggest him to anyone else ☺️

Kim has become one of my FAVORITE people!! She absolutely cared for my pups just like we would (maybe better??!! Haha!!). We have a special pup that doesn’t care for new people too much, and she made her comfortable within minutes. Kim has a super sweet spirit, which is sensed by humans and animals alike. She also pays attention to detail better than most people I know, and never missed a beat on the instructions I left for her. You will not ever want anyone else to watch your fur babies again! I’m looking forward to the next time already!! ☺️

McKenzie was great! She took everything in stride with our doggies and went above and beyond in caring for them. They took to her right away. She stayed at our house for several days and left all clean and in order. Will definitely ask her again as the need arises.

She was really great with my dogs and left my house clean and even got my laundry and dishes started without me asking. It was my first time having a sitter stay at my place, and it worked out well.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for a couple of years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with puppies as well as senior dogs who may be hard of hearing or losing their sight, and I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During visits I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I aim to follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel relaxed while their owners are away. My goal is to provide dependable, caring service so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I am a fairly new stay at home mom so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of your pets! I schedule feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and attention around my baby’s naps and feeding times, so your pets always feel safe, loved, and happy. I plan longer walks or extra play sessions during calm times, making sure both pets and family stay comfortable and cared-for throughout the week. While caring for your pets in your home, I follow the routines and instructions provided by you to ensure consistency and comfort. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, letting dogs outside for potty breaks, cleaning litter boxes, offering playtime or walks, and giving lots of attention and reassurance. I make sure your home remains safe and secure, and I always respect your space and belongings. My goal is to provide a calm, reliable, and loving presence so pets feel happy, safe, and well-cared-for while their owners are away.

About: I started my journey on rover over a year ago. Part of what encouraged me to get into pet sitting was my background. I grew up on farm so my family had a lot of room to foster cats and dogs. There were times we would have 6 dogs staying with us at once, each with their own funny quirks. I fell in love with getting know each of their personalities and taking care of them. Since starting rover I’ve worked with everything: reactive dogs, food aggressive, high energy, senior and disabled. It’s been a great experience getting to know all the dogs. I also have my own sweet puppy named Birdie. She loves interacting with all the clients that come to visit. I’ve had her since she was 2 weeks old and she’s always been a social butterfly. I’ve noticed she helps other dogs staying with us adjust to the environment quicker. She’s very high energy and is guaranteed to wear your pup out. My rates are higher for house sitting and boarding because I accept last minute clients. As for my schedule, I work a full time job and will be gone during normal hours. If your dog requires constant care the rate with go up to $250 a night and I will need at least 2 weeks notice to notify my job. Drop-In’s: For dogs I will not accept bookings that have less than 2 drop-in’s a day scheduled. This is because dogs become stressed when left alone too long and can become destructive. I also want to be able to check on them for health reasons. During the drop-in your dog will go on a walk that equal half the time of the drop-in you have booked (30 min drop-in = 15 minute walk). They will be fed and given water, and the rest of the drop-in will be spent playing inside. Their food bowls will be cleaned and water bowls refreshed. If there are any messes caused by the dog, those will be cleaned up as well. I do offer grooming (I will not do nails or teeth) for $30 extra. Photo’s will be provided at the end of each drop-in. Walks: Dogs will always be walked separately. It will be a 30 minute walk around the neighborhood, and then they will be given water before I leave. I do offer adventure hikes, where I will take your dog to a location of your choosing for a walk. This can include a trail, a public park, a lake, or just to a different neighborhood. There will be an extra charge for any reactivity or excessive pulling, this will come out to about $10 extra.

Sarah was amazing! I needed a last-minute sitter for my dog, Milo, and she came through. She kept me updated the entire time with regular messages and adorable pictures of my pup, which was awesome. Milo absolutely adored her… and if he’s happy, I’m happy! I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every dog I care for. I have experience with all kinds of pups—from playful puppies who need structure and gentle training to sweet senior dogs who need extra comfort, calm, and medication support. I always aim to create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels at home. I treat every dog like family, and I’m committed to keeping their routines, personalities, and special needs top of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my current routine! I recently graduated with a degree in psychology and while I’m exploring full-time job opportunities, I have a flexible schedule. I help my parents with their restaurant business, but most of my days are open—so I’m able to give dogs the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Spending time with pets is something I truly enjoy, and it adds joy and balance to my week! I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets feel most comfortable and secure in their own environment. I’m very respectful of each client’s space and routines, and I always follow care instructions closely—from feeding and walks to medication and playtime. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.
