“Did a wonderful job checking in and taking care of Max, peace of mind knowing he was checked on and given attention while on vacation, appreciated the updates and photos, will definitely use service in the future”

“Nejra did an excellent job taking care of our cats. She was willing to come to our home to meet our cats so we could show her how we feed our diabetic one. Her drop in visits were 12 hours apart as we requested, including administering insulin each visit. She provided detail and photos twice a day and even a video of her petting. I highly recommend Nejra and we will be hiring her again!”


“Another great booking. Arielle is always fantastic and her passion really shows. She is always on time, follows all my demanding requests, and often goes out of her way to make sure everything is ready for my return.”

“Krystal is absolutely amazing! Our dog Nova is scared of all strangers. Krystal was so patient and kind to Nova and was able to gain her trust. I highly recommend Krystal to anyone needing someone to care for their dog!!”

“Jen was so great with my cat and dog! They enjoyed her time with them and she was great at communicating how things went while she was here. She’s staying at my house this weekend with them and I am 100% confident that my kiddos will have a great time with her again! I’ll definitely use her again and I’d totally recommend her! ?”
“So happy with Hallie’s drop-in visits! She does such an amazing job at taking care of my dogs, always keeping me posted and sending photos! My dogs fully enjoy their time with her, too! Highly recommend Hallie for any of your dog’s needs! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Sara is an amazing dog sitter and was a complete joy to work with. She was flexible in scheduling and prompt to all appointments. Our dog loved her. Sara is very trustworthy and would recommended to anyone who is scheduling for the first time.”

“Lynsey has been great with our pups and even available for last minute bookings which I appreciate. She’s always taken great care of the dogs and sent us the pics of them enjoying her care. Thanks for what you do!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for family and friends for much of my life but am new to Rover. I have owned my own dog for 5 years now and have learned a ton about having a dog that requires boundaries and maintenance for triggers of his reactivity. I’ve learned patience and am happy to do that for your furry friends as well! I work from home on Mondays and Fridays which gives me the flexibility to leave for drop-in visits throughout the day and after work! Tuesday-Thursdays can also be arranged if your home is near my office - contact me for details! While I’m unable to care for others’ pets in my own home since my pup prefers human friends, I will care for your pet in any way you need in your own home. I prefer homes where I can let your pet out into a fenced yard but am happy to take pets out on a leash if they are leash trained and/or you prepare me for their behavior.
About: I have experience with a wide variety of dogs, but especially with specials needs, senior, and small and large dogs. My old fur-baby, Jack, was special needs (born with scoliosis) and I did the majority of care for him. He lived to be 17 and a half. I work from home with a relatively flexible schedule. During the weekdays I am available for daycare, pop-ins, walks, and house-sitting. On the weekends I am available for boarding and overnights. I live in an apartment but am very active and can ensure plenty of outside time if desired. My complex also has a large fenced-in dog park area. I have one dog who is very friendly and can keep your dog company and play with. I am available to go to your place as well if prefered.
“Amber was great! She did a meet and greet beforehand with us and our parrots. She's personable, communicative, and she showed up when she said she would and sent clear, helpful messages and pictures to ease our mind. Absolutely recommended - thanks, Amber!”

“Reliable communication and pet care. Our first time using Rover and it was nice to be able to leave and not be worried about the cats while we were gone. Check-ins with pictures were great :)”

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up! I’ve had both big and small dogs and love them all. We currently have two high maintenance French bulldogs that we treat like children. I’ll give your furry friend all of the affection and care that you would while you’re away! As a heads up, I do have a young baby and sometimes she’ll join me in taking care of your fur bestie! I am looking to love on some pups part-time! I am available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and some weekends. I prefer day-time drop ins, but could have some availability weeknights depending on my schedule. I am excited to accommodate whatever you need to make your dog feel happy and loved! Having two dogs myself, I know the importance of getting quality care for your fur children!
