“Lydia took care of our older dog, puppy and cat while we were gone for the holiday. They all loved her and she was very communicative. We hope to have her dog sit again!”

About: I take pride in my work as a pet sitter. I have experience and knowledge from taking care of past family members' pets. I am someone you can count on to do the job. I currently work full-time at a credit union (M-F). I get home at around 5:45pm/6pm. I am all focused on taking care of your pet (dog walking, drop in visit, or overnight); your cat or dog is my #1 priority. Thank you for trusting me with your family. Although I don't have any pets myself right now, I do have past experience taking care of pets (per my reviews). I take pride and much joy in taking care of both dogs and cats.
“Well, what can I say? Hannah's the BEST, hands down. I think Mr. Coconut is going to ask to be adopted!! Hannah, is so kind, knowledgeable and just all 'round loves the pets she is caring for and it shows! She also took GREAT care of my home! :) Thank YOU, Hannah!!!”
“Laurie was so helpful even with a last minute request. She went above and beyond to make my dogs comfortable including my dog with anxiety who was in a new place. Extremely grateful!”
“We loved having Erin come take care of Nina. She came over to meet Nina beforehand, handled the list of medicines our dog needs, and was responsive to photo requests while we were out! Thanks again.”
About: Please help me convince my wife that we need a furry friend! I never had a pet growing up, so I always offered to take care of my friends pets. I work from home Monday’s and Friday’s, Tuesday through Thursday I go into an office and I don’t work on the weekends. So before 8:30am or 5pm during the week or anytime on the weekends I am available! I am a new home owner with a fenced in backyard. I treat my clients homes with respect and clean up after my self. With clients’ pets, I am attentive to instructions and specific needs that each pet may have.
“Maciyah was SO wonderful with our baby Nala. We had just rescued Nala 3 weeks prior to having to leave for 5 days and were nervous to leave her, however, Maciyah was so great with her. She made us feel so much better about leaving her. She sent lots of pictures, gave our girl good cuddles and played with her and took such great care! Would absolutely recommend Maciyah to anyone needing help with their fur baby and Nala can’t wait to see her again.”
“Hanan was amazing! We had a sitter cancel last second before the holidays and she stepped right in no problem. We’re very particular about who watches our Zuko as he can be a lot to handle for some but wow did she do great! Between watching our house and Zuko and taking care of our fish too, she definitely knows what she’s doing. She even had her own puppy boot camp for Zuko! He’s got a few more commands up his sleeves and really is even more well behaved than when we left. Thank you Hanan! Have an amazing new year and we look forward to using your services again soon!”
“Victoria was amazing! This was my first time on Rover and I was a little apprehensive but after our meet & greet, I knew our dogs would be in great hands. She was very communicative about her schedule and the dogs’ activities and she provided updates throughout the day without prompting, which was considerate and very much appreciated. I will certainly use Victoria in the future and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring to every pet I look after. I treat each animal like they’re my own, paying close attention to their unique personalities, routines, and needs. Whether it’s high-energy playtime for puppies, gentle care for seniors, or simply providing a calm presence for anxious pets, I adjust my approach to what makes them feel safe and happy. I have experience with a wide range of dogs—from young pups learning the ropes to older dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m confident giving medications, handling special diets, and working with shy or reactive pets. I’m also great at keeping owners updated with thoughtful messages and lots of cute photos, so you always feel connected and reassured. I am home Friday- Monday each week. I work from an office Tues- thurs but am close to home, so I am able to come home during lunch for walks or other needs. Note: I do have a dog but I share him with my ex-partner. I only accept boarding requests when my dog is not home. Your pet will always be the only pet in my home when boarding. In my home, pets have a safe and comfortable environment with a fenced-in yard for outdoor play and fresh air. There are limited stairs, which is great for senior dogs or those with mobility issues, and I do have a crate available if your pet is crate-trained or finds comfort in having their own cozy space. When caring for pets in your home, I always follow your routines and preferences—whether that means keeping up with specific feeding schedules, sticking to favorite walking routes, or just knowing where your pet loves to nap. I’m happy to do whatever helps your pet feel most at ease, whether that’s crate time, couch cuddles, or extra play. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your furry family member.

About: Hello! My name is Karly and i’d be super excited to take care of your pets for you! I love animals and love to be around them. I love walking dogs and making sure they’re as excited and happy as I am! (or more!) I also love to play with dogs, watching them get so excited and playful is so fun! I love making sure animals enjoy their lives and have fun and know they are loved. Making sure they’re fed, cleaned, and making sure they play/excersize and use the bathroom is an important part of having an animal, especially a dog! Of course you’ll be their first and most important best friend but while you’re away I can remind them of how loved they are while making sure they have all of their needs! I currently work mornings until around 4pm, so if you are someone who is looking for evening care, I am a great fit! I am also available most days all day on the weekends. Safety is of upmost importance. I will be sure to always keep a third eye out to protect our beloved, sweet furry friends we love!
“2nd time was a charm! Cloud enjoys having Victoria over and I could tell he was a very happy pup once I came back! Victoria was always super responsive and especially patient when it came to my phone being stolen while on vacation. My only form of communication was the rover app and Victoria was quick to help me out with what I needed! My home was VERY CLEAN when I got back and I really appreciate how honest, caring, and loving Victoria has been with Cloud! Thank you so much again! <3”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, from training my Golden Retriever for 4H competitions to raising my current Goldendoodle from a puppy. I’m confident handling dogs of all ages and energy levels, and I know how to build trust quickly with new pets. I’m especially comfortable with basic training, managing routines, and giving extra attention to senior dogs when needed. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, especially as a student with a flexible schedule. I'm already taking care of my own dog every day—walks, meals, playtime, and training are part of my normal flow. Adding in time with other pets feels natural and rewarding. I enjoy the break it gives me from screen time and studying, and I always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment. At my place, pets get plenty of playtime, outdoor walks, and a cozy spot to relax. I keep things clean and stick to their usual routines to help them feel at home. If I’m in a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while following any instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or favorite toys and habits. I keep things low-stress for both pets and owners, giving regular updates and lots of attention to every little detail.
“Mary Kay is so great with the babies - even those who are difficult! She even left us gorgeous flowers. We love her! But I don’t want to say too many good things cuz then we have to fight other people off to get her! (Just kidding!)”

It’s such a relief knowing he’s with someone who actually cares and pays attention. Hunter always sends updates and cute photos, takes him on long walks, and just goes above and beyond. Murphy can be a little anxious when I leave, but he warmed up to Hunter right away. That never happens. I totally trust him and will 100% keep booking.”
