“Heather was a great sitter. This was Alister’s first time being away, she made his transition very smooth. She provided pictures and updates regularly which was very comforting to me knowing he was being well care for. I will use Heather again.”
“Joscelyn and Ivan and their 2 sweet kids took great care of our little 8 pound Morkie! You can tell they love dogs and love caring for them. Joscelyn is a great communicator and sent many pictures to keep us updated. We would definitely use them again!”
“Natalie took great care of my lab while I was out of town. She sent me pictures that insured me he was doing well. When I picked up dog he seemed happy that he made new friends. I recommend Natalie for your pet sitting needs!!”
“Anne is absolutely amazing! She communicates so well and is so kind to our June! She genuinely loves and cares for all the pet visitors. We are so relieved to have someone we can depend on and treat our dog like her own!”
About: I've grown up surrounded by pets—from energetic pups to laid-back cats—and caring for animals has always been second nature. For the past three years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family during vacations, making sure their pets are safe, happy, and loved. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet! Working third shift gives me a flexible daytime schedule, which means I’m wide awake and available when most people are at work. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or midday check-ins, I have the time and energy to give your pet the attention they deserve. I provide care from my apartment, creating a safe and cozy environment for your pet. I live in a very quiet pet friendly neighborhood. I'm also physically strong, which allows me to confidently handle larger or high-energy dogs while keeping them safe and happy
“I have never left my dogs before and was very nervous about it. But Stephanie was amazing!!! She sent me pictures and updated me and I never felt more comfortable while on vacation. She’s truly a gem and animal lover. I would 100% recommend.”
“Tiffney was vey responsive and reassuring. She met with me before the stay to make sure Bella and I were comfortable. This was the first time leaving Bella with anyone so it was important to me to make sure she would be well taken care of. Tiffney did everything she could to make sure Bella was comfortable and safe. It was nice that she had other dogs to socialize with, and her children were kind and playful with her too.”
“We were in Indiana for a wedding and wanted our little pup close rather than leaving him states away. Sara took great care of our little Marley. He was so tired when we picked him up from all the playing and running around. She let us know how he was doing often and sent us photos. We would definitely use her again if we lived in the area!”
“This was the first time I used Rover, Alicia was great! I went on vacation and had to leave my senior Lab mix Sugiebear behind for the first time. She is 12 yrs old and has some health issues. Alicia's home is very neat and was accommodating to my Sugiebear 's needs. Alicia took great care of her and sent me pics and updates everyday. I also had car trouble coming home which caused me to be late picking Sugiebear up, Alicia was very understanding. I will definitely be using Alicia again and I will be recommending her to everyone I know. Many thanks”
“Greg got 5 stars for being readily available last minute just before Thanksgiving to book. He was a lifesaver. I love that he has so much space for the dogs to roam.”
“Salehin accepted my request last minute and really helped me with my dog! He sent me constant pictures and gave me updates on her. She was happy when she left :)”
“I was so nervous to find a caregiver for our Zoey. The reason is Zoey is a 3 year old epileptic boxer. Even though her seizures are controlled I was so worried I wouldn’t be able to find someone to keep her overnight and be responsible for her medication. Then I found Jennifer on Rover. I set up a meet and greet and I just knew Jennifer was ready for the challenge. We set up an overnight stay while my husband and I had to be out of town. Jennifer sent so many pictures and updates. It was wonderful!! Zoey was in great hands and received amazing care. We are so thankful for her love of animals and for the more “needy” animals. Jennifer was a rockstar!!”
“I really appreciate Erin keeping Jack. I was able to do a meet and greet prior to his stay and felt comfortable leaving him for multiple days. Erin sent me updates without me having to ask. I would definitely trust to leave him with her again.”
“Our dog was well cared for while leaving her with Tom and his family! Tom was easy to communicate with and frequently sent pictures. I hope it works for them to sit Ollie again!”
“We have taken Ruby to Kristen multiple times and will do so again without any hesitation. Kristen is fabulous; she is super nice and flexible, and Ruby loves her. We know she is happy and well-taken care of. Thank you, Kristen!”
“Karisa was AMAZING! Not only did she send me pics of Dez while she sat him, but she also gave updates! Her daughter made doggy treats for Dez, she took Dez on walks and gave us a thank you card! Karisa and family were the kindest people and we will DEFINITELY book her again! Thank you for being awesome, Karisa!”
“An even better 2nd booking experience. Nan and her family and little Henry are really good to my baby boy. She is really a Nana to him. She even knew to take him for a walk to help him use up his excess energy, which I thought was awesome. He is SUPER energetic. I highly recommend and Kai and I are now official return clients!”
“Agnatha was great with my dogs! They warmed up to her really quickly and had a wonderful time with her. She sent me many pictures to show how they were doing and was communicative about what they were doing and how they were eating and such. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you, Agnatha!!”
