“Meghan was such an amazing sitter for our pup! She was super responsive and communicative throughout her whole stay. I had no worries while we were out of town that our sweet boy was well cared for. She’s the best so if you can have her take care of your pet, do it!”


“McKenzie was amazing with our crew. Including keeping us up to date on one of our pups who has a medical issue that requires multiple medications and feeding times. It’s especially hard to leave a pet that isn’t feeling well by McKenzie did a great job. My little dog, who is a bit standoff-ish, let her pet her with a few minutes of meeting her. We hope to use her again!”


“Cindy was wonderful. She took excellent care of our senior cats while we were away for the holidays. Kind, thorough, and very communicative, we knew she was taking great care of them so we could relax on our travels. Very grateful for that! Recommend Cindy highly!”


About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.

“Mariana was great with our dog and two cats! Our animals loved her and she kept our house very tidy after staying there. We would definitely rebook with her again when we go out of town.”


“Mark is extremely caring. He put our minds at ease with many updates along with pictures. Mark went above and beyond. We came home to a very relaxed and happy Cody. Thank you so much Mark! Ann and Kel”


“We feel so lucky to have found Paula. She was the perfect sitter for our two cats and two dogs. Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and she gave our pets so much love and attention while we were away. We got regular updates, which gave us such peace of mind, and it was wonderful to see how happy our pets were with her. Paula is also incredibly trustworthy and reliable. She handled an unexpected AC issue while we were gone, which was a huge relief and weight off our shoulders. We returned to happy pets and an impeccably clean home. It's rare to find someone who allows you to completely switch off and not worry about a thing, but Paula is that person. We highly recommend her and will definitely be repeat customers.”


“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”


“Kim exceeded expectations. I feel like everything fell apart dog wise leading up to this vacation. My lab ended up one a bunch of medications and had multiple hotspots on her body and was in an e collar... It was a mess... My pitbull figured out how to open sliding doors... A mess. Kim never once made me feel like any of it was a big deal, I knew she could handle it and she left our house spotless for us to come home to. She sent daily updates when we had cell service with pictures which really eased my mind. Would recommend to anyone and she will be my first choice as long as she's willing to sit for us! Thanks Kim!”


“Sarah did an amazing job. I am extremely overprotective and type A about my pets and their schedule and she was amazing. She gave my pets a ton of affection, she administered their medications, she maintained our tidy home and we came home to happy pets and a clean living space, and she sent daily updates with pictures and videos like she said she would. She arrived on time and left at the planned time. We would absolutely hire Sarah again. Our dog is actually searching for her!”


“Kaleigh watched our dog overnight this weekend and was very communicative throughout the time we were away. She sent multiple pictures and let us know how our dog was doing. We appreciate her taking such good care of our pup for us!”


“Seline was super helpful and great house-sitting our dog and cat when we were out of town for the weekend. She provided photo updates each day and communicated quickly throughout the stay.”

Huguenot pet parents share their Rover experiences
Upon meeting Charly, I quickly felt confident that I had found a great sitter for our 2 border collies and our home who would not only take good care of them but also could handle the quirks that come with the breed and the quirks that come with a big old house. Boy, was I right. There was a huge thunderstorm while we were gone and the neighborhood lost power. When she was unable to reach me, Charly remained calm, spoke with a neighbor who finally reached me. (Poor reception where I was staying.) I talked Charly through our blackout protocol. She handled it while keeping the dogs calm in the storm. She is calm, confident and clear-headed. I hope to engage her again for our travels. Thanks Charly!!!

Sophie ("Zoe") was great. Very responsible and took great care of my dog Ghost. I would use her in a heartbeat. She kept me informed and kept my house clean and secure. She stayed for five nights and Ghost was obviously happy in the pictures she sent to me during her stay.

Erica was reliable and very sweet with our older kitty and nervous puppy. She came in and took over for a few days while our other sitter had to go away for a weekend, and made us feel reassured that all would be well while we were gone for several weeks. We hope to have her again.

Jessica was a great sitter! She was responsive from the start and communicated with me throughout. She arrived exactly on time and was willing to do a meet and greet beforehand. My two pups are a lot to handle (mostly the puppy) but she didn’t seem phased and did what I asked with them. We would definitely use Jessica again. Thanks!

Kayla took amazing care of our pup and our house while we were away for a long weekend. She arrived right on time, gave regular updates, and most importantly took great care of our pup (and home!). Highly recommend if you're in need of a caring and professional sitter.

Megan took amazing care of our dog while we went on a last-minute weekend trip! She is so attentive and patient with our very sweet yet stubborn English bulldog, and we really appreciated how she communicated with us throughout our time away to keep us updated. We will definitely keep her in mind for future needs!

Cassidy is very friendly and willing to take care of your animal. Our 27lb lovable mess, doesn’t always interact well with new people as her fear can cause her to growl. Our dog may not have been one of the best for a newer sitter. Regardless, my dog and house were in good shape and Cassidy hung in like a champ!
