“Lauren was amazing. She was very easy to contact both before and during the stay. We have never left my dog ever. She comes with us on trips. However, this was my son's wedding and everyone was staying at an air b&b where there were no dogs allowed. I did not have to worry at all. Lauren sent updates including pictures every day. I am definitely going to call Lauren in the future. I highly recommend her to be your go to sitter.”


“John was absolutely incredible! I couldn’t be more pleased! He sent us photos every day of my guys. I was really nervous since I’ve never left my boys before, but he eased my worries. Definitely would use him again!”


About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was a kid, my home was my zoo. Based on this, I always had a soft spot for pets and took every chance to take care of friends and family pets. As I grew up, it became my hobby to volunteer in shelters and petsit. I currently am a mom of a Husky, a Shitzu, a cat, and a fish! I would be more than happy to be there for your pet and their needs. Bonus points: As a husky mom, I can be very active. As a cat mom, I know when to give space and let them nap! I work as a Bilingual tutor in a high school in the mornings. However, this summer I will be available 24/7 to attend to your pet's needs. When it comes to my home, I have a big backyard where your pet can have the freedom to run freely and two friendly dogs who are up to play 24/7, however, there's the option of opting for the company if your pet is not comfortable around other pets. When it comes to a client’s home, I'll ensure the safety of the pet and the house, reporting everything in detail and offering extended stay periods.

“Heather was awesome with the dogs I had daily updates along with pictures. When we got home the dogs had entertainment for them on the tv and fresh water in their bowls I would recommend her to anyone that needs this service. Thank you Heather”


“Anna was absolutely wonderful taking care of Harvey over the weekend while we got married! She took great care of him and it gave us a peace of mind while we were away!”


“Terri was beyond wonderful taking care of our home, and fur baby. Her updates are extremely thorough and consistent. We have used her before, and will be using her in the future for our sitting needs.”

“Nastia was excellent! She had great questions during our meet and greet that showed me how contentious she is. She was a great communicator before and during the visit. She had a minor issue come up with my dogs and she immediately called me to discuss it. I was grateful that she reached out. The call and how she managed the issue made me really trust her judgement and professionalism. I’m so glad we found her and we will certainly use her again.”


“Zoe was an awesome sitter! She stayed the night at our house while my partner and I visited family out of state. We came back to very Happy dogs and a house just the way we left it. Managed a lot of instruction given we have two dogs to look after, and she handled it very well. Super friendly, would recommend!”


About: Growing up we always had dogs and cats in our home. Once turned adult I was always the go to dog/cat/house sitter. I’m retired LEO and have a lot of time on my hands to share with my pup and yours! I’m currently retired and have no fixed schedule at the moment. My husband is only off Sunday and Monday and would prefer not to work while he’s off but am willing to compromise! I do live in an apartment but have a walking trail just 7 minutes away that my pup loves. Plus the complex is pet and walk friendly.

About: I volunteered so much the guy who ran the shelter told me I need more human friends 😅😂 I jog twice a day, once in the morning and right before sunset, and would love to bring your furry friend along with me! I don’t have my own pets so your dog will have all of my attention. Volunteering at an animal shelter for 5 years taught me so much about different breeds. The main thing I learned is that every dog is just as unique as every human. Their like kids, you need to earn their trust and when you do it’s super rewarding. Message me with ANY questions I work from home and have a super flexible schedule. So our required meet and greet can be at your earliest convenience and will only take 5-15 minutes.

“Julia took excellent care of both our pup and our home! Our Frenchie has back issues and Julia was very sensitive to them, and comfortable caring for her despite them. We will definitely book with Julia again!”


About: I've lived with dogs nearly my whole life, and cats for half of it. I have taken care of said pets for years and been an in-family pet sitter on numerous occasions. My mother frequently cares for other pets through apps like this/through friends, and I assist her with that when needed. At the moment, I care for my mother's pets when she leaves town for any length of time (1 small/medium dog, 1 cat). Otherwise, I'm a free agent. Some of the services listed on the app have the potential to overlap (such as a visit and a walk), I don't consider the price to be totally compounding, just let me know and we can figure out what works best. I'd imagine this is on a situational basis. I'll pet/feed/walk them and am able to follow directions as well as any human, should your pet require specific, or unique, handling. I can usually read pet body language pretty well, but have no specific training in it. If there are any areas of confusion for me, I'll be sure to ask questions to make sure your pet is cared for properly.

About: New to Rover but not to pet sitting! My family has had dogs my whole life. As the oldest child in my household, I was responsible for all the little guys. Now I have an adorable, sassy cat at home who is a constant reminder of respectful boundaries and unconditional love. I’ve been a contact for family and friends when they need someone to watch or check in with their fur babies. I always want to make sure you and your pet are comfortable around me. I would be honored to care for your best friend. Don't hesitate to ask any questions regarding my services and we’ll see if I’m a good fit for you. I am currently in between jobs so I have a wide range of availability! In the future, I expect to be working part to full time during normal workweek hours 9-5, so would have more availability in early mornings and evenings. I have a fenced in yard and am nearby many dog-friendly trails. To stay at my home, your dog must be comfortable with cats, potty trained, and overall well-behaved. My cat has not had experience with other cats in our home so that is not something I am comfortable with. Around your home, I am happy to stick to whatever practices and routines are familiar and comfortable for your pet.

“They stayed and played with Luna plenty of time each day, sent us pictures and checked in each visit. They bought treats for her for when we got back and just did a great job. They really cared about Luna and enjoyed spending time with her. I would highly recommend and use their services again!”


“So happy to have found Tabitha!! I’m always so hesitant to leave my pup since he has epilepsy and requires medication, but everything went smooth! I was worry-free on my vacation and will definitely be rebooking.”


“Kate, along with her daughter Allie, was fantastic! We took a 2-week vacation and left our pets in her very capable hands. She sent us daily updates, including Instagram Reels, of our pets. She also kept our place clean and ready for our return. I would recommend Kate 1000x for your pet-sitting needs. I don't plan on using anyone else! She's our gal!”


About: I am an extreme animal lover with years of unique experience. I currently have a two year old Labradoodle named Bear! I have worked at a vet office for four years where I was responsible for boarding, grooming, walking, general health, and feeding for dogs, cats, and birds. I also am an experienced dog trainer that has trained six dogs. One of those dogs became certified to be a therapy dog for children! Because of the pandemic I decided to extend my services! I know that it can be nervous feeling leaving your dog or cat with someone unfamiliar with them. Please be assured that your loved ones will be well taken care of and will be given the attention and care that you expect! Thank you very much!


“She was awesome she left a little report card for our pups that included how they were and what to improve for them.I felt better knowing she was there with my babies while I was away for a family trip. So much better than boarding. Will being using this service again for sure!!”


“I have two cats that get very upset when I'm away, but Emma took care of them like they were her own and they were two happy boys when I got back. So grateful for the care and thought she put into our boys and our home”

“Renee is the best with my dog! Super nice and I can tell Chipmunk loves her. She’s always on time and I for sure feel safe with her babysitting Chipmunk overnight.

Caitlyn R.
“Caitlyn took care of my two dogs for a full week and I couldn’t have asked for a better person!! One of my dogs has a tricky personality but he quickly warmed up to her naturally sweet demeanor-I knew they were going to be in great hands! She was responsible, kind, and kept me updated the whole time. I had total peace of mind knowing Caitlyn was home with my pups. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and experienced with dogs of all kinds.”

Jonathan P.
“I've known Jonathan for all of his life. He is a fine, trustworthy and completely honest young man. He has cared for my dogs (at that time, 4 greyhounds) when I was away, and his care was exemplary and done in the way I had specified. Jonathan is disciplined and focused on making his life count and to impact this world for good. He is an achiever who knows how to apply himself to the task at hand and accomplish the goals he has been assigned or he has set for himself. He is not afraid of hard work, and dedication is his trademark. Last but not least, Jonathan is a dog person who has owned and loved several dogs in his life so far. He will make a fine dog sitter on Rover.”
