“Anna was SO sweet and great to work with! We loved the pictures and communication. We missed our pets terribly, but knowing that the kittens were being so well-cared for helped to minimize some of the worries about being away. Thank you!”
“Rachel was GREAT! She was able to help out with our dog at the last minute when we decided to go out of town and couldn't take our dog along! Dozer has a lot of anxiety and doesn't do well with boarding, so having someone who could come into our home and care for him was a perfect solution!!”
“Sage was a wonderful sitter! She was attentive to our pets and took care of playing, feeding and their litter boxes and other accidents. She went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, moving objects out of kitty reach and bonding with our animals by holding them and playing with them. She kept us updated daily with detailed notes and pictures. We would definitely have her watch our kitties again and would highly recommend to others! Thank you so much!”
About: I have taken care of different animals growing up dog sitting, and dog walking is what I normally did! I love going on walks with dogs combines my two favorite things, the outdoors and animals! I have two other jobs but don’t work full time, I usually have a couple days off. When I’m off i like to be outside and doing things! I help make the animals feel safe! I know how some animals can be with their parents gone and it can make them feel scared or abandoned. So being there with them and playing with them can help calm that sense of abandonment!
“Easily the best sitter I've had from this app. She communicates well, goes above and beyond, sends so many photos, and is a lovely human. I've booked with three pet sitters in total on Rover and she shines above the rest. I can tell she genuinely enjoys this job and cares about my pets well-being. I'm usually so anxious leaving my cats for long periods of time, but not at all with Maegan. I don't think words can properly express how wonderful she is!”
“I’m so grateful I tried Rover and found Ashley! When Ashley came over for a meet and greet, Jasmine immediately loved her! She is so kind, loving, and a personable. Ashley took the time to get to know Jasmine and asked great clarifying questions. I absolutely loved receiving sweet updates and photos when I was gone! I was not worried the entirety of my trip because I knew she had it covered!! Ashley was even sweet enough to clean, wash the bedding, and vacuum without being asked. Ashley’s genuine love for animals and her strong communication skills make her the perfect sitter! I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m so thankful for her and will absolutely book her again!!!!”
About: I've been pet/house sitting professionally with a company for about 2 years. I have a few years of experience working in the pet industry (dog daycare/boarding/parks) as well. I have lots of experience working with dogs of many different sizes and temperments, so I know that each dog is different and can cater to various needs. I also have a 9yr old lab and two cats at home! I love all animals, so if you have more than just dogs in your home, count me in! My schedule varies week to week, but I am very flexible! I still petsit for a company, but usually have some free time to fit some more visits in :). I am a college student so I don't have any dogs of my own, eventhough I wish I could, but if I were to care for yours I would follow any instructions given and provide them with lots of love and excersize!
About: What makes me different from other pet sitters is my extensive training and hands-on experience in all things pet care. I’ve got a knack for puppy training, focusing on essential commands and socialization strategies that help shape good habits right from the start. Plus, I've worked with senior pets too, so I'm familiar with their specific needs—like managing medications, providing gentle exercise, and catering to special diets. I am currently working part time so I have time to care for animals in the afternoons and evenings. I am also in nursing school but have availability on some weekends. I have a fenced yard which allows dogs to exercise and play without the fear of them running away or losing sight of the dogs.
About: Hello! We have two large dogs Frankie Mae and Sequoia and have had cats in the past! Our pets are our babies and are very spoiled! No kiddos in the home at this time. Alisha is home most days and Davon is retired and is usually home and available for plenty of puppy play time! Potty breaks are often every two hours, or more is needed. Our dogs have access to the home besides a few rooms. We have a large rural home with an unfenced yards. Our dogs roam the property and we walk them as well, along with trips to the dog park! We have no children in the home. We can kennel your pup when away from the home or during the night if they are more comfortable. We have both large and extra large kennels and dividers to make kennels smaller if needed. Pups can roam the yard unleashed if they have good recall or we can leash then if they are wanderers. Please share with us any needs that you and your pup need and we will do our best to make accommodations! We know what it’s like to leave your pets behind. We used boarding for years and have recently changed to Rover and we love the idea that our pups get the opportunity to be a part of a family while we are away!

About: I've had multiple jobs now working with all sorts of different dogs! From puppies to elderly; crazy to lazy. Plus everything else in between. I've worked at a shelter, bathing dogs, and currently a doggy daycare, so I say I've got my far share of experience. I work full time at a doggy daycare, but I am more than capable to stop by before work, during my lunch break, and anytime after work.

I have not only played and taken care of them most of my life, but also have helped train service dogs at Retrieving Freedom as a part of one of my college classes. Giving them food, baths, and bringing them on long walks, or to a park to play are all things that I have experience with due to being a pet owner myself. I am currently a graduate student and looking for a part-time job. Watching and caring for pets would fit well into my schedule as I have most early mornings, some afternoons and most evenings free. I am a full time graduate college student and looking for a part-time job. Pet sitting works well with my schedule as it changes every semester. I make sure I obtain as much information from the owner beforehand and do meet and greets to ensure safety for when I care for their pets.

Alisha E.
“Alisha has been around animals her whole life. She has taken care of fish, cats, hamster, ferret, horses, chickens, and dogs. She was taught at a young age how special her animals were. She was responsible for taking care of them by walking them, she kept them well groom and fed. While in high school and college she took her dog to the local nursing home to visit the residents, where she went room to room visiting for hours. Her and Kia, her black lab, would love to dress up and parade around to nursing home, neighborhood and shut in elderly and sick people to see the excitement on all ages from children to elderly was an excitement that they loved to do on a weekly base. After moving out on her own she purchase a Bernese Mountain Puppy, she named her Sequoia, the two of them have been inseparable they do everything together. Sequoia loves to go to doggie parks, trail walking car rides and especially loves to have yearly birthday puppy parties where Alisha remembers to bring treats for the other puppies who come to the party. Moving in with her love of her life the two of them along with Sequoia and three cats have adopted another dog, Frankie Mae, the two dogs love hanging out together like sisters. When they come to visit they are calm and relax, well behaved you would think you would worry about the kids but you don't need worry they are well mannered dogs. The love and attention Alisha and her husband give these animals are remarkable. Your pet would be well taken care of if you leave them in the hands of Alisha she will make sure they are nurtured loved and cared for she always gives 100% into the love of her animals.”
