“Claudia was great! I was very comfortable having her in my home taking care of my fur family. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, and they all loved her. She was very communicative and send pictures each day which was very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her for house/pet sitting.”


2. Kiersten W.


“Kiersten did a wonderful job of hanging and taking care of Austin who can be a handful sometimes. She is very responsive and kept us up to date on the visits. I would highly recommend Kiersten for watching your fur babies.”


3. Jennifer F.

“Jennifer did a WONDERFUL job house-sitting and taking care of my 2 Chihuahuas and 3 cats. The Chihuahuas were a challenge because, as much as I've tried, they just don't take to strangers in the home very quickly and Jennifer handled it like a champ and they eventually settled down warmed up to her. I would absolutely hire her again!!”


4. Staci K.

“Staci was wonderful. She kept me updated through texts and pictures!”


5. Cassandra V.

“Cassandra was wonderful with our animals. She took great care of our funny farm. She sent me pictures daily and reminded us that the animals were safe in her care. Our goat ended up losing his horn while we were gone so she was able to clean him up for us and made sure the bleeding stopped. We would love to have her house sit again for us in the future.”

About: Hi my name is Steph and I love animals of all kinds! I currently have 4 cats of my own. I have plenty of experience with dogs, growing up with large breeds and pet sitting since I was 12 years old! I am a part time nursing student with open availability. I am patient, caring and would love to take care of your pets when they need it most! I work part time Mon-Fri, 4pm - 9pm. I am a part time nursing student with only 1 class day a week.

12. Bryan C.
About: I've loved caring for pets for family and friends over the years. Moved away from home so looking to keep that same experience around here. I'm generally off on Sundays and Mondays for work, and live close enough for potty breaks and I make my own schedule if enough notice is given. I have a fenced in yard which has been home to dogs the size of a Great Pyrenees down to a Yorkshire Terrier before. The home is large enough for multiple pets to have their space.


13. Amanda V.
About: I have loved and worked with animals for as long as I can remember. I have always had pets in my house until now and would love to be able to help someone out while also spending time with their best furry friend(s). I love walking and being outside just as much as I love animals so your pets will definitely get the exercise that they need while still being carefully cared for and loved of course. As far as experience goes, I have always had at least one dog and cat in my home for the full 22 Years I have been alive. I have volunteered and worked on farms and in other animal care facilities with various animals and pets. I have watched others pets in their homes as well as mine numerous times and am always looking for new opportunities to meet and get to know more pets. I am currently unemployed besides doing care for Rover so my schedule is pretty much open. I love animals and caring for them as well as making sure they're happy. I like to make sure the environment I'm in, is at the very least, comfortable for everyone. I am highly animal friendly and love all types of animals.


14. Jade F.

“We are extremely happy with the service provided by Jade. We have an older English Bulldog who we prefer to keep at home when we go away. Jade provided photos and updates, and it was very clear that our dog did well with her. She was happy and healthy when we returned home. I would highly recommend Jade, and we plan on using her again in the future.”


15. Madison G.
“Ivan is one of the sweetest individuals I have ever met and so good with animals! I don't trust my pets with many people, especially since my older dog has on set dementia/ health issues and doesn't like people but he loved Ivan instantly. Ivan has stayed in my home and taken care of my 3 pets like they are their own and given them the love and care they needed. I trust Ivan fully with my babies. And Ivan is one sitter I would highly recommend! The compassion they have for animals is unmatched!”


16. Samantha H.

“This was my first time ever using Rover and Samantha made everything so comfortable & smooth! My boys adored her. I knew based off of our initial meet & greet & her daily pictures my boys were safe & well taken care of! Lots of pictures of my boys snuggled right up with her, soaking it all in! She treated my home like her own. Couldn’t have asked for anything better!”


17. Arielle C.

“Arielle stayed overnight at our house with our 12 year old golden doodle. She kept in contact with us, followed his daily routine, took him for a long walk and kept him company. It gave us piece of mind knowing our dog was able to stay home and be well cared for.”


18. Katie M.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs for the past few years. I enjoy taking them on walks and throwing the ball with dogs. I have 2 furry friends of my own that I also care for and would love a friend to play with. I feed and bath them, so I have a ton of experience. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to feed, walk, and play with your pet! I’m home more than I am at work, so my schedule will be pretty open for any pet sitting needed. I have an invisible fence at my own home so I have extra collars for pets when they come and visit. I also have two furry friends for your pets to play with!


19. Andrew K.
“Andrew is an incredibly responsible and loving pet caregiver. He truly provides attentive, patient, and thoughtful care. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or providing calm companionship, he always goes the extra mile to ensure pets are happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him with my pets!”


20. Michayla G.
“Michayla is exceptional. She goes above and beyond in every situation with my pet. I’ve had her help with my dog on numerous occasions, from nail clipping to walking to house sitting. He’s a very anxious dog with separation anxiety and she does a great job soothing him and keeping him calm. I’d recommend her anytime to anyone. She’s capable of handling any type of animal and situation that may arise. Me and my puppy are both anxiously waiting for the next walk!”
