“My yorkie LOVED Rita fm the start, & usually takes him a bit to warm up! 2nd day he ran into her house & never even looked back at me! And I afore her! She is so sweet & seeing my little guy happy is the best! We will be seeing her often!”

“Holly was great! She took care of our 6 year old miniature poodle for 6 days. She took him for walks, sent lots of pics. He felt at home though it was a new place for him.”

“It was a nice relief to know I didn't have to worry about my 2 pups when I boarded them for 2 nights. She responded fast and gave me updates and pictures my rascals. Definitely would recommend.”

“Kelly was absolutely amazing! I normally worry about my dogs when leaving them with a caretaker, but Kelly made me feel so at ease with regular photo and video updates during their week stay. Her experience with caring for shelter dogs was a plus. This is our second time booking with her and our dogs excitedly rushed into her home right when we got there. Our dogs had a blast with her dogs and seemed like they didn’t want to go home! Her home was very spacious and in a safe, gated area. I would definitely book with her in the future. Thanks again, Kelly!”

“Keja was so good, my pup didn't want to leave! I got photos and video, check-in notes and felt so comfortable being away from my dog for the first time since the pandemic began. Cannot say thank you enough!”

“This was my first experience using Rover. Kourtni made us comfortable from the very first visit. She treated our baby, Carter, just like her own. I loved the pictures and updates Kourtni sent everyday. Carter had a great time and would definitely go back. I would recommend Kourtni to anyone needing to use Rover.”

“Kanieshawa took great care of our sweet pup and we would definitely use her services again! She was very easy to contact and sent updates and pictures while we were gone. Our dog came home happy and well taken care of!”

About: Since I was around 5 or 6 I was always drawn to different types of animals especially horses, dogs, and cats. Everyone whose met me will tell you they would trust me with their pet cause of how well taken care of mine are. I also have years of veterinary technician experience and I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid including CPR. I do work full time but get off around 1 or so. My summer availability does open up a good bit so I'll be able to do more and be a bit more flexible. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own and everyone whose been around me knows that mine are spoiled rotten and I do the same for theirs. What other way would it be though?
“As a first time Rover user, I was hesitant in trusting our fur baby with strangers. I am so glad I read their reviews and went with my gut instinct! Rue had a great visit and was not in any type of distress after we picked her up - unlike after being boarded. The communication was excellent and we even received daily pictures! I would not hesitate to use them again!”


About: I have experience with small dogs and some larger dogs! I have had dogs for the last 4 years myself and have been around dogs most of my life. I have experience with pet sitting and love to spend time relaxing and playing. I can't wait to meet your pups! I currently work Monday - Thursday in the office. I have the ability to watch dogs in the evenings Monday - Thursday and then can have dogs at home or at your home Friday - Sunday! I can watch dogs during the week, but I typically can't come home for potty breaks at lunch. I have a quiet home with two dogs. They love to spend time inside and out sniffing around our yard. I am happy to accommodate walks or just letting your dog in the yard. My dogs get along very well with other dogs and typically give nervous dogs the space they need to warm up!
“Great location with really good hosts! Gated street , fenced yard and Kapone their dog. Fletcher had a good time playing with Kapone and making himself at home in their house. Hosts communicated with me when needed and sent just enough pictures that we didnt start missing him! This was late notice so I really appreciated Haven and Alexander setting up a quick meet and greet then keeping him starting the next day! Great experience for Fletcher and me. I never worried about his care while I was gone! Will be back.”

“Brittany and her family were truly one of a kind! Ace felt right at home with them and her son young son Everest! I think he and Ace would call eachother on FaceTime every night from here on out if Ace had thumbs 🐾 LOL! 10 out of 10 we’ll be back again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs from friends, relatives, & neighbors for years. Most recently taken care of an older diabetic god-dog in my home during his mom’s business trips & vacations. Able to care for older dogs & dogs with special conditions. I work full time and care for dogs around university schedule, midday to 5pm on weekdays. Able to walk & feed your pet in morning by 10am and after work at 5pm. Especially available long weekends with flexible schedule in summer. I have a small fenced yard and am able to crate your pet inside my home. Dogs are welcome indoors, comfortable & pet friendly space.
“Excellent!! Lori is an amazing petsitter! She sent me pictures and updates and had a fenced in back yard as well as a doggy door. My babies didn't want to leave! She truly treated Cable and Floof like her own fur children! She asked me questions any time she wasn't sure about their food or habbits. I'm so glad I found her! Will be using her every time we go out of town!”
Heatherwood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Rita is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my two dogs and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. They got plenty of playtime in her big yard, and she even played fetch with them. One of my dogs struggles with anxiety when I leave him, but Rita was so patient and caring. She even got him to eat, which is a huge deal for us. I loved getting the daily pictures and videos; it was clear my pups were happy and well loved. Rita is now my go-to sitter! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate caregiver. 🐾
