“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”


“William did an outstanding job taking care of our three dogs. They were very happy when we got home and were very well cared for. He followed the instructions that we left. He left the house in great shape. This is the second time we use him to take care of our babies and will definitely use him again.”

“This was my second time working with Zsa-Zsa and she was great! Her communication leading up to the stay and during the stay was thorough and detailed. My dogs were excited to see her when she arrived at the house; that’s always a good sign!”


“Victoria was the best! She sent pictures daily and was extremely communicative. Our pets were well cared for! We will 100% be asking her to come back next time we are gone.”


“Samantha took care of my 5 year old Vizsla pup for a multi day housesitting stay and was just incredible - her communication leading up to and during the stay was impeccable, she was punctual, attentive to details, sent me multiple pictures and check ins a day, took amazing care of the house, and overall just showered my dog with love and listened to every instruction I left and beyond. I would 110% highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter. Thank you Samantha and I will definitely be re-booking with you!”

“Malia was a pleasure to have! I felt like my boys were in good hands with her, and she was very responsive while I was out of town. She sent me picture updates and I felt like a friend was taking care of my apartment. I would definitely recommend Malia and will rebook with her again! :)”


“Our dog was happy and healthy when we returned from a week-long vacation. Irina followed our instructions and kept our house neat and clean! Thanks Irina!”


“My dog Chimali loved Jenna! She kept up with his super high energy, and didn’t mind playing with his favorite toys and taking him for walks around the neighborhood. She was dog sitting at my apt and kept the place clean while she was here. She sent me pictures and communicated during the weekend. She also was happy to snuggle with my sweet little dog since he isn’t used to sleeping alone. He had a good time with her and looked happy in his pictures. He made a new friend. I would reach out to Jenna again.”


About: I have extensive experience handling rescue animals. I have worked closely with professional trainers with my own dog which has given me more knowledge to apply to pet sitting. Pets always feel safe with me because I keep calm. I work part time as a catering chef. I will be able to schedule my sitting/walking appointments when I am not working in the kitchen. This will allow me to do two things I really care about and enjoy. I have a cat and a dog at my home. When I am doing my sitting work, my wife will be able to take care of the pets at my home. I will care for other people's pets as if they were my own.

“Bowie loved Anny! He misses her already. She was great at communicating with us and sending us pictures to brighten our day while we were away. We really appreciated coming home to such a clean house after being gone too, she left it better than she found it! Thanks Anny!”


“Sara took great care of my dog, Bodie! She helped me in an emergency and was very communicative and kind. She left my apartment very clean and I’d love to have her watch bodie again!”


“Ashley is awesome! She came to my home and took care of my brand new puppy, who has quite a demanding schedule. I was a super anxious new puppy mom and she put me at ease, kept me updated, and was super flexible and accommodating. Basil loved her and I felt like he was in great hands. Absolutely recommend!”


“Jon helped us with a last-minute need for dog-sitting and walking, and we’ll certainly be asking for his help again! Our dogs aren’t the easiest pair, but I could tell that they were treated with love, care, and attention.”


About: I've always had a deep connection to and love for animals that goes back to childhood. I'm dedicated to giving your pet(s) the best care possible. I currently work remotely from 8:30 a.m. -5:00 p.m. from Mon. through Fri., so I can walk dogs in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends. I care for pets in client's homes by ensuring they have water, food, attention and are taken on daily walks. I also ensure they get any medication needed. I have experience dog sitting for senior canines.

“Dennis did a wonderful job watching my 13 month old Collie puppy. My dog is large and somewhat high energy and needs many miles of walks and Dennis did a wonderful job making sure that he got all of the mental and physical stimulation he needed. I got lots of picture updates, and felt very relaxed while leaving my dog while I was on vacation. Dennis also took great care of my home and was super responsive whenever I had questions. We did one meeting before I booked Dennis for the weekend, and then I booked him for one dog walk session before the Dog Sitting time because he was going to arrive after I had left. He was super open to everything and he reviewed my dog care instructions before I left. I felt like we had really clear really good communication. I’ve used several Rover pet sitters and Dennis is by far the best one that I’ve booked. I cannot recommend him enough! (unless you want him on the same weekend that I do and then I would still recommend him but I call dibs!)”


“Caroline is very professional, easy to work with, and took great care of our puppy and elderly dog. We only worked with her for one night but we would definetely hire her again.”


About: Animals are one of my life’s greatest loves (AKA special interest). At this point, I’m basically a level-capped pet sitter with critical hit affection and stat bonuses vs shyguys and grumps. I’ve maxed out my EXP through a lifetime of joyful, hands-on experience with cats, dogs, birds, and myriad other small animals. From shy senior cats to energetic pups, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique “character build” — whether they need a stealthy companion, a high-stamina walker, or a boss-level snuggler. I’m known for following instructions to the letter, sending regular photo updates, and treating pets and homes with deep respect. Safety, stability, affection, and fun are my top priorities. Whether you’re gone for a day or a week, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and understood. I work part-time from home (and for house sitting, can easily work from yours), so I have a flexible schedule to structure around your pets’ needs — walks, feedings, playtime, grooming, cuddling and companionship. At home, I maintain a clean, calm environment with scheduled meals, play, and grooming for my own two beloved cats. Routine and enrichment are key to keeping pets stress-free and happy. When caring for your pet — whether in your home or mine — I prioritize: • Following care routines as written • Respecting your home (clean, safe, secure) • Watching for any changes in behavior or needs • Keeping environments peaceful, safe, and low-stress I’m committed to giving you peace of mind and helping your pet feel like they’re on a staycation 🌞

About: I grew with my dogs ( Husky and Shizu) and kitty (Luna). I am obsessed with them! They passed away of age when I was in college and miss them dearly. I am unable to have a pet of my own due to my apartment regulations so looking to fill my heart by helping you care for your furry children! I would like to spend more time outdoors after work so dog walking would be an amazing way to jump start that goal! After noon walks would be amazing. I also work from home some days so being able to take walk your pet for my breaks would be relaxing for me. I make sure I have the proper tools I need to keep the dog healthy and safe. That means carrying poop bags, bowls, water bottles, treats that can nourish your pet while on its walk.

“Michael was a phenomenal pet sitter for my 2 large dogs (lab and golden retriever). They are strong dogs and he expertedly was in command of walking them and taking them to the park simultaneously. He stayed in our home overnight and the dogs were so comfortable that they slept with him! He texted us an update and photo each day. It was very comforting to hear how the dogs were doing. We could tell from the photos they were happy and well taken care of. He was so neat and clean that we couldn't even tell he had stayed over. We highly recommend Michael as a pet sitter.”

Any cat would be lucky to be in her care.”
