“We are so happy we found Giannina! She took such good care of our baby. She sent us photos and updates while we were on vacation, which made us feel so much better, since this was the first time we've left our little one in someone else's care. We will definitely use her service in the future. Giannina comes highly recommended.”
“All I can say is ? THANK YOU Jordan! You are amazing! You took such good care of my baby and he seemed to have enjoyed his time in your care. You’re home is very warm and welcoming to pets. Thank you for being available, compassionate, and patient with everything! You exceeded our expectations! Thanks again ?”
“You guys were excellent thank you thank you thank you for taking wonderful care of my baby. I love all of the pictures and the videos will definitely use you guys in the future.”
“I was so apprehensive about leaving my Nori with anyone, but to my surprise after leaving him with Bernice she quickly me down by sending me pics of Nori, throughout the day. Nori seemed so happy, and it made me feel at peace.”
“If anyone is looking for a Dog sitter I would highly recommend Catherine! She was absolutely amazing with my puppy Roxy. Her communication with me during Roxy’s entire stay was excellent, never once leaving me in the dark about what was going on or what to expect. I will definitely be using her again in the near future!?”
“Using Rover was a last minute option for me prior to going out of town for a couple of days. I lucked out with Mark and Nancy! My dog was cared for in the same way I would care for him, I was sent pictures and a video, and they were beyond understanding when my return flight was continuously delayed. Knowing my dog was safe and happy took so much of the stress of traveling away and I will be forever grateful to them!”
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of pets, I’m confident handling different temperaments and routines. I enjoy building trust with each animal and tailoring care to their individual personality. We lost our beloved boxer Duke on Black Friday 2025 after a bout with an aggressive lymphoma. I miss having our buddy around, but I'm not ready to own another dog yet. I need some time to heal. I figured I would bridge the gap, by walking and watching other people's pups. I currently work part-time, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and dependable availability for walks and drop-ins, including daytime visits and occasional last-minute needs. For walks and drop-ins, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. During visits, I provide fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and attention based on your pet’s personality and energy level. On walks, I prioritize safety, consistent pacing, and giving your dog a chance to enjoy exercise and stimulation. I also make sure your home is secure before leaving and will provide updates so you know how your pet is doing.
“I recently boarded my dogs with Jesseeka, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! She was absolutely fantastic—sending plenty of pictures, responding quickly to any questions, and making sure my dogs were well cared for. She even gave them baths, which was such a thoughtful touch! One of my dogs is quite skittish, and she went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. Another has some behavioral quirks, and she handled him with patience and skill. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she watches. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“I had surgery unexpectedly and Joy and Dan accepted my last minute request of dog boarding. My puppy was very excited to go back there and when I picked him up he was very happy. He had a very good visit with them. I am very satisfied with the care that they provided to my puppy.”
“Cassidy is a jewel! My Princess was very happy with Cassidy and her family. I was very impressed with the family environment. I never worried one moment. Thanks for sharing frequent pictures and updates!”
“I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She was extremely communicative and it was very obvious how great of a dog mom she is. I felt so happy knowing my baby was in her care. Moose had the best time!”
“April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.”
“Monica and Joseph are absolutely wonderful— they treat my toy poodle, Dash, like family. I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in their care. They send daily updates and photos, which I truly appreciate. I can’t recommend them enough—don’t hesitate to book with them! 🐾✨”
“Curly loved his stay with Emma & Timothy. It was a last minute reservation so I was grateful to have such accommodating hosts. Communication was awesome. 5/5.”
“Holly took excellent care of our pups while we were away for a few days. She sent tons of updates and pictures and made sure to give our dogs extra love in a new environment. Highly recommend booking with Holly.”
“Niyah did a really good job with my dog Lady. Niyah sent me pictures of Lady daily to show me that Lady was okay. Niyah was responsive when I reach out to her and she replied immediately to all of my text messages. Lady returned home happy and she was returned back to me in the same condition I left her. If I need a dog sitter in the future I would leave Lady with her again. Thank you Niyah for taking care of Lady with short notice during the Holiday.”

Hobart dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with Serena and her family while our dog, Stella, stayed with them for eight days. From the start, it was clear Stella was in a warm and welcoming environment, and she quickly settled right in. Serena and her family were incredibly kind and gracious, and it really showed in how happy and comfortable Stella was during her stay. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was being well cared for and treated like part of the family. One of the highlights was that Stella even came home having learned a few new tricks! It’s obvious that Serena goes above and beyond, not just looking after the dogs but actually spending quality time with them. We’re very grateful for the care Stella received and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Serena again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!
