I cannot emphasize enough how far above and beyond Sydney went for my dog Tink. Tink has a lot of trauma from an abusive past, and getting comfortable with new people is very very hard for her, especially in her old age. I needed a sitter for four nights, and I didn’t have anyone Tink was already comfortable with, so I was very worried about finding someone. Over the few weeks prior to my leaving, Sydney met with me two separate times for meet-and-greets (one in public, one at my house); she also was very flexible and willing to do a number of drop-in visits that started with me present, then I left, for purposes of getting Tink comfortable with her in the house. By the time I left for my trip, Tink was comfortable enough with her that I actually wasn’t even worried about leaving my baby—and by the time I got back, she and Tink were actually bonded. Tink went from barking and snapping at Sydney on day one to face kisses and asking for belly rubs, and that is all due to Sydney’s commitment, responsibility, and genuine care for animals. I would (and will, if need arises) trust her 100% to watch Tink or any of my other animals again. 15/10!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Josh was an absolute gem of a cat sitter! From our initial video chat, I knew Dennis (my recently adopted ex-street cat) would be in good hands. Josh came to the meet & greet fully prepared and even managed to get Dennis to come out from under the bed—no small feat for a cat who spent 8+ years on the streets! 😸 He sent updates, photos, and thoughtful messages each visit, which really helped ease my first-time Rover nerves. He even met me after to return my keys and parking pass—above and beyond. Josh has great energy, and Dennis clearly approved (which says everything). Highly recommend—your pets will be in caring, capable hands. Will definitely book again!

This was our first time using Rover and we were so happy by choosing Casey. He immediately wanted to schedule a "meet and greet" at the house so the dogs can be comfortable. Soon after, we left for our wedding and our babies were in his hands. We were worried at first, but Casey reassured us instantly with photos of the doggies loving life. He always checked in with us, and sent us photos. We had such a great experience with him and Rover. I recommend Casey for any dog child owner in the area. His knowledge, attitude, and comfortability is reassuring :D Thank you so much! -The Rileys

I treat every pet like family, focusing on safety, comfort, and love. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle session, or sticking to a special routine, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m currently available full-time and will be starting an online school program on July 7th.

I can easily coordinate walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays around my coursework, so your pet’s routine stays stress-free and uninterrupted. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I stick closely to their normal routine, follow all care instructions carefully, and make sure they’re never left unattended in unsafe situations. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of love, supervision, and play. I’m also respectful of your home and privacy, keeping everything clean and secure while you’re away. You can count on me to treat your pet—and your space—with the same care I would my own.

About: I’ve had dogs for as far back as I can remember! They are the thing in this world that makes me happier than anything. I get along with every breed/size/type of dog I’ve ever been around and am so looking forward to meeting more awesome pups through the app! My schedule is currently very flexible and can be adjusted on a week to week basis depending on a clients needs.

If staying overnight I’d love to meet you and discuss your routines with your animals, and just make sure it’s a situation everyone is comfortable with to maximize the care I can provide!

She even stayed a bit longer in the last day to keep our dog companied when we were heading home late. Dogs look healthy and happy. House looks clean and neat. Highly recommended if you are looking for a good sitter.

About: My long history of taking care of dogs started with my wonderful and energetic Airedale terrier in my teens and twenties, and continues as a dedicated uncle to my sister’s 4 dogs (yes 4!). I am the guy my friends consistently ask to pet sit when they leave town. I am currently working part time nearby and not planning much summer travel, so I’ll have plenty of time for quality visits with your dogs! Your pets and your home environment are important to you. I will exercise the utmost care with both and make sure you feel comfort around entrusting me with either or both.

Caroline was a lifesaver! The thought of leaving our kitty at home with a stranger for 16 days was nerve-wracking, to say the least! Thankfully, we found Caroline, and she took the anxiety out of the equation. She took care to follow out instructions and maintain Tatsu's kitty routine with minimal disruption. In addition, Caroline gave regular updates and communicated in detail about how things were going. It was clear from her communication that Tatsu had settled in well with her new caregiver. When we returned home, we found a healthy and content little cat and a spotless home. We are deeply grateful for Caroline's cat sitting and would highly recommend her for anyone seeking a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.

Lisa was exceptional with our dog and as a house sitter generally. We have a miniature pincher who is a total sweetheart once you get to know him, but our dog has pretty significant fear aggression problems (he is a rescue and we are working on it). We were especially nervous to leave our furry friend alone with a stranger and were concerned about how he would be handled. Lisa took the time to ask the right questions and made multiple visits to our home ahead of time to get to know our dog and have him become comfortable and trust her; She walked him and even had a joint session with our dog trainer in order to understand our doggy’s quirks and needs. And it worked! He absolutely ADORES her. It felt very reassuring to have Lisa pay such personal attention to Oliver’s unique needs and anxieties. On top of that, she cooked for him too! (Following doggy diet restrictions of course) Lisa was very communicative while we were away, updating us regularly on the household and was great with our other animals too. (We have 2 rats and a red eared slider turtle) She made sure they were all fed and well taken care of. Additionally, she gave them all special meals for Christmas. The house was in great condition when we returned home and all of our animals seemed happy and content. We are incredibly appreciative of the clear effort and care she provided for our family, and we have every intention of booking her again. We really can’t recommend Lisa enough!

About: Hi my name is Samantha (aka Sam/Sammi) and I LOVE animals. I am currently flexible and open to all of your pet needs. While I am new here on Rover, I am not new to pet care and pet sitting. I have pet sat for various friends and people in the community using Nextdoor and Hillsborough Together. I even had a local pet grooming business going in high school. Moreover, I have worked with well-known dog trainers such as, Mike Wombacher and Shay Yuval. Working with these trainers taught me the importance of reading a dog's body language to not only make the dog do what you want obedience-wise, but also so that they can feel safe and understood. In fact, I learned that a dog's body language has a direct correlation to their emotional state. And being aware of your dog's cues will help me ensure that I can prevent them from being stressed or anxious while you are away, foster trust, and identify their needs (hunger, wanting to play, needing to go outside, etc.). I also am proficient teaching dogs the basic training commands including sit, stay, shake, down, come, wait, and heal. Overall, I understand that the most important thing is keeping your fur baby safe and happy. Currently I am very open and flexible for whatever your pet need may be. My schedule is free as of right now and ready for you pet! For dogs that have more energy and require more room to run or socialize, I have a big car and am able to take your pet to the beach, local park, dog park, or on a hike.

Phil is the best with dogs. Animals and children gravitate toward him. He is a very calm, gentle person. He takes good care of the home he is working in as well. He especially likes to play with the dogs at the beach, and will also comfortably snuggle with them on the couch all day if that’s their prerogative. He is reliable and takes his work seriously, but most of all he loves the dogs back. It brings him joy to be around animals

About: I Have been around animals since i could remember, from having cats and a dog, to taking care of fish, or even cows and horses at school. I love to help people out in any way that i can Pet care fits smoothly into my routine. I take a morning class from 8–10:30am, and the rest of my day is dedicated to caring for pets. I prioritize safety and comfort in both my home and clients' homes. I have one friendly dog and one cat, so I’m used to managing different pet needs calmly and attentively. I always follow each pet’s routine, keep spaces clean and secure, and never leave pets unsupervised during care. I treat every animal like my own, building trust through patience, consistency, and lots of affection.

Lisa was exceptional with our dog and as a house sitter generally. We have a miniature pincher who is a total sweetheart once you get to know him, but our dog has pretty significant fear aggression problems (he is a rescue and we are working on it). We were especially nervous to leave our furry friend alone with a stranger and were concerned about how he would be handled. Lisa took the time to ask the right questions and made multiple visits to our home ahead of time to get to know our dog and have him become comfortable and trust her; She walked him and even had a joint session with our dog trainer in order to understand our doggy’s quirks and needs. And it worked! He absolutely ADORES her. It felt very reassuring to have Lisa pay such personal attention to Oliver’s unique needs and anxieties. On top of that, she cooked for him too! (Following doggy diet restrictions of course) Lisa was very communicative while we were away, updating us regularly on the household and was great with our other animals too. (We have 2 rats and a red eared slider turtle) She made sure they were all fed and well taken care of. Additionally, she gave them all special meals for Christmas. The house was in great condition when we returned home and all of our animals seemed happy and content. We are incredibly appreciative of the clear effort and care she provided for our family, and we have every intention of booking her again. We really can’t recommend Lisa enough!

I have known Samantha, or Sammi, for about eleven years. I have watched her discover her gift of versatility through raising her childhood dog, Buster, to now raising her own cat, Rajah. I saw Buster spark Sammi's passion for animals at a young age. When she has a task, job, or even just a newly-found interest, Sammi is not only dedicated but extremely determined to perform as best as she possibly can; she is someone who will not rest until something is done the right way, as she sets very high standards for herself. Over the years, Sammi has taught herself an abundance of skills ranging from high-level dog training, to the art of dog grooming. I have a Staffordshire Terrier mix, Sadie, that I rescued some years back. She is a sweet girl, but she can be unpredictable in public as she tends to be reactive towards most dogs. Sadie is extremely strong; she is not an easy one to handle in public. There are very few people that I trust to be alone with/caring for Sadie if I am away; it is not worth it to me to risk the chance of something happening with her/to her. With that being said, Sammi is one of those few people. To be honest, she might be better at handling Sadie than me at times. She helped me train Sadie when I first adopted her and still continues to give me tips and tricks when I reach out for guidance. Sammi is the person who can be trusted to keep your pet(s) safe, happy, and entertained when you are gone, leaving you comfortable and stress-free. I personally understand how difficult and worrisome it can be to have another person care for your pets, but I can confidently say that Sammi is someone that you can trust to provide the best service and care for your pets; she will treat them as she would her own. I cannot recommend Sammi enough to be the person you rely on to provide any service for your pets; they will always be in the best hands.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Josh was an absolute gem of a cat sitter! From our initial video chat, I knew Dennis (my recently adopted ex-street cat) would be in good hands. Josh came to the meet & greet fully prepared and even managed to get Dennis to come out from under the bed—no small feat for a cat who spent 8+ years on the streets! 😸 He sent updates, photos, and thoughtful messages each visit, which really helped ease my first-time Rover nerves. He even met me after to return my keys and parking pass—above and beyond. Josh has great energy, and Dennis clearly approved (which says everything). Highly recommend—your pets will be in caring, capable hands. Will definitely book again!

Sydney house sat for my dog Nala (60lbs german shepherd mix) over a long weekend for us. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process with multiple updates and rounds of pictures every day. She took care to learn about our general schedule with feeding and walking. Nala is pretty scared of other dogs and Sydney was able to manage all of that like a pro. Nala loves Sydney and I highly recommend Sydney for all of your pet care needs!

Anna was amazing! She took care of our dog Lily at our house for a week while we were in vacation and took such good care of her! She took her on walks, played with her and even gave her a bath - which was not expected!! Everyday we got lots of photos of Lily having fun! She also left the house spotless. We will definitely use Anna the next time we go on a trip. I highly recommend her!
