1. Rodney J.

“Rodney is fantastic! It was our first time using Rover and he made us comfortable. He was able to answer all of our questions, and address our concerns before our trip. He went above and beyond while staying with our pets. My dogs loved him and he was very communicative and provided constant updates. I would highly recommend Rodney, and plan on using him moving forward!”


2. Lindsay M.

“Lindsay stayed with our two dogs (1yr & 6mos) over night at our home and we couldn’t be more grateful. She provided updates and pictures throughout her stay and the dogs always looked so happy! We will happily have her stay again in the future”


3. Lillian S.
“Lillian is an attentive and empathetic caregiver when it comes to animals. Always willing to put their needs above her own, she shows great passion to making sure the animals around her (in her care or otherwise) are living their best life possible”


4. Lauren E.

“Lauren is great! Our pets warmed up to her right away at the meet and greet, she was on time, and she sent me lots of updates. It's so nice to be able to get away while knowing my babies are in good hands! Thank you Lauren!!”


5. Karen B.


“Karen did a wonderful job sitting for our geriatric greyhound in our home! Very reliable and put our minds at ease with regular updates and pictures. Would highly recommend!”


6. Lainey L.
About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, volunteered at a animal shelter and have been dog training, grooming, walking and pet/dog sitting for years. This is what I do for work so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible. Excercise when they need, rest when they need, potty, food etc. if your pets have a schedule I'll stick to it. If not well then tell me what you'd like and call it done!


7. Evan G.

“Evan was GREAT ! He contacted me very quickly regarding a medical concern one of my Great Danes was having. He was very quick to reply to all my messages and sent smiling pictures of the dogs to put me at ease. I was especially surprised to see the floors and bedding washed and clean upon my arrival. My Danes fell in love with him during the meet and greet visit and will definitely use him for all our dog care needs. Cora”


8. Darby M.
“Darby is the most compassionate person with the biggest heart! Being a dog owner herself, she understands the responsibility and necessary care that comes along with walking/pet sitting your fur baby. Not only does Darby’s charming personality make her an excellent choice as your Rover, but her work ethic and reliability is unmatched. You’d be lucky to have Darby watching your animals!”


9. Anne T.

“As a new dog-mom, and first-time Rover user, I had some anxiety about leaving someone I didn’t know to care for my young dog & senior cat for five days. I immediately liked Anne’s energy. She’s professional, capable, and trust-worthy. She helped to ease my mind and kept in constant contact while I was away which allowed me to truly enjoy my much needed vacation stress-free. I highly recommend her!”


10. Brittany J.

“Brittany was very responsible and sensitive to the needs of our dogs. She sent lots of pictures to us and kept us updated on how the dogs were doing. I would recommend her without concern!!”


11. Hailey S.

“Hailey was great! We used her as a sitter for our dog on our wedding night! She was kind and communicated well. Gunner had a great time. We definitely will be using her to watch him again!”


12. Rachel C.
“Rachel is the most loving and attentive person I have ever met. She gives all of her affection to those in her care. No better option in my opinion!”


13. Hunter J.

“Hunter is very attentive and spoiled my dog. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. I was very nervous and hesitant leaving my baby for so long but hunter gave me updates and was very transparent with us. Lucy got walks and plenty of play time would definitely hire again. The only thing I wished I would have done was been more upfront about what Lucy’s schedule was like but I was still learning how all this worked but hunter fit right in and helped Lucy adapt and did an amazing job.”


14. Brodey B.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive knowledge of animal behavior, my commitment to personalized care, and my ability to handle various pet needs, including administering medications and managing special diets. Additionally, I prioritize communication with pet owners to ensure peace of mind while they are away. Pet care fits into my daily routine by incorporating regular feeding, exercise, and playtime for pets. Weekly, I ensure maintaining open communication with pet owners about their pets' well-being. I have multiple references that can assure you your dog will be in the best hands when you chose to take a vacation or whatever it might be.


15. Lonna P.

“Lonna is kind, caring and did a great job with our two pups. Would recommend & have her watch our pups again.”


16. Chantel O.
“I can confidently say Chantel provided exceptional care for all the animals on the farm I worked on with her. She excelled not only with larger farm animals but also worked wonderfully with dogs and cats, showing the same level of care. Whether feeding, playing with, or ensuring the animals' overall health, Chantel consistently demonstrated professionalism and a genuine love for the animals. She is reliable, hardworking, and a true asset to any animal care role. I highly recommend her.”


17. Katy K.
About: I am looking to fill up my schedule this summer. I have experience in small farms and multi-animal families.I have house/dog sat many times and have always been invited back by families. I currently have 1 dog, 1 cat, a rabbit, and 2 goats! I can walk your dog, give it a bath, and I am experienced in medication administration and senior pets. I am currently available all day, every day at the moment. I can stay with your dog all day or I can stop in from time to time for play time. When taking care of other people's pets, I always ask about any habits the dog might have such as biting, aggression, things they love, etc. I take that information and try to make the animal feel as safe as possible. If the dog is most comfortable staying on the leash and going for a walk then I will make sure that happens, but if you would like the dog to roam around, I can do that too!


18. Savana R.
About: I have many friends and family members who have dogs that I have cared for, both short term and long. I am an active person, so being outside for playtime and taking long walks or something that I quite enjoy. I also understand that every animal has a different personality and can adapt to each one well! I have taken care of many animals: cats, dogs, reptiles, aquatics, and some exotic animals like hedgehogs! I work from home Monday through Friday, so I’m very flexible with when I’m able to visit as well as the type of activities I can do with your furry, scaly, or gilled pets! I am a pet owner in longtime pet lover! I also understand that every pet has their own personality and a different temperament, so before committing to me as a sitter I’d love to be able to meet your pet just to make sure the connection is good.


19. Heidi M.
About: I’ve dealt with all sorts of dogs but and small ranging between chihuahuas to Great Danes. Another plus is for the past year I’ve been a dog groomer so my range of dogs is very high, I’ve had all ages of dogs. I’m currently wanting to make this my full time job and am available pretty much anytime right now! I love dog and cat and would love to take care of all different kinds. I have 2 dogs a toy poodle and a pitbull mix they are both very friendly and great with new dogs and love to play. They would be amazing to keep your dog company.


20. Russell G.
“Russell has always had dogs since childhood and loves the experience of caring for them. He enjoys getting down and relating on their level and participating in playtime with them. I have always trusted him to be responsible for their care.”
