“Paige was great from her initial visit with Buster up until we got home. She proved us wonderful pictures and updates of Buster while we were gone.”




2. Samm L.

“Samm did a wonderful job taking care of our house and pets while we were away. Two of the cats needed medicine and she made sure it was given correctly. Samm sent pictures of the pets and kept us updated everyday. She played ball with the dog and he loved her! Would definitely recommend Samm to care for your pets!”


3. Jeanne R.


“Jeanne was wonderful. I've never used a dog sitter that wasn't a friend or family so this was my first Rover experience. I'm so grateful that I found Jeanne and I would definitely use her again and recommend her for others. Jeanne took exceptional care of my boys. My neighbors were even texting me during my 8 days away, telling me how great she was with our labs. When one of our labs became sick, Jeanne kept me updated and ended up taking him to the vet. She had to administer meds and deal with a sick dog and was so gracious and kind about it. I knew my dog was in good hands and could relax even though I was away and he was sick. Under her attentive care, he was better by the time we got home. In addition to the love and care she gave our labs, she fed the fish and our house was clean and orderly when we returned. I can't say enough about Jeanne. If you want a responsible, caring, clean person with great communication skills to care for your pets, pick Jeanne. Just don't book her when I need her. 😉”

5. Cara G.

“Cara did a great job taking care of our 3 dogs. Very reliable and friendly, excellent communication before our vacation and during our vacation. The house was clean and our dogs were happy. I would definitely recommend her and I hope to use her again next year.”


6. Augusta B.
“Augusta is a dependable and truly caring pet caregiver. She treats every animal like her own and makes sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. She grew up around animals, has fostered many cats as an adult, and I know that she is incredibly patient with dogs!”


7. Cydni S.

“Cyndi is amazing! I have a dog aggressive/ reactive dog and she was not hesitant to house sit with her! She sends pictures of your pup with updates and has amazing communication and courtesy! My boyfriend and I are new to the area and don’t have family or many friends here, but someone suggested Rover to us and I am so thankful I found Cyndi. My dog loves her, and she will forever have the best of friends with Cyndi and her sweet amazing daughter!:)”

10. Haley A.

“Haley is amazing! The communication before and during our stay was perfect. She was so patient and kind with our anxious girls. She sent many pictures, videos, and updates throughout the stay. We felt very comfortable and happy knowing they were safe with her, and we returned to very happy and loved puppies.”

13. Cadence M.
“Cadence is an amazing pet sitter. She pays extra attention to detail to meet the needs of any individual pet she cares for. She makes sure they get lots of love and attention. Wouldn’t want anyone else caring for my pets”


14. Jessica M.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life till now. So I miss the puppy love and walks for sure. I can administer medications. (Oral as well as shot) I can sit the dog and your house while you relax knowing your babies are safe with someone trustworthy. I work early in the mornings usually so have time for afternoon walks and spend the night times with your animals. I’m very trustworthy and flexible and know how people are with loving and caring for their pets. I have two cats that don’t socialize with other animals. And I have a special needs birdy. I can dog or kitty sit in your house no problem. I’ve also been on a health journey so the more walks the better!!


15. Lydia S.

“Lydia is amazing!! She’s watched our fur baby many times, always goes above & beyond. She even helped us out last minute. When we’re away I feel at ease knowing our dog is in good hands with her. She even sends pictures & gives updates on how everything is going. Couldn’t recommend her enough!!!”


16. Taylor R.
About: Taking care of animals including feeding, grooming, exercise, playtime, walking, cleaning cat litter and great companionship, as well as maintaining a safe and comfortable environment. I work a full time job until 4pm M-F. I am looking for weekends and evenings during the week. I would love to spend my free time with some animals. I can care for pets at your home preferably. I have two sweet pups at home and foster dogs on occasion until they get adopted


17. Ashlee N.

“Ashlee took on a two dog household for a week long stay as a dog and house sitter and did an amazing job. She was great at communicating before the stay and throughout the stay, and she could problem solve little things to not disturb me on my trip. Ashlee provided the dogs with exercise above what was asked, she cleaned up the house before she left (including the not so fun task of picking up poop from the yard!), and she kept my mind at ease knowing my dogs were in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to book!”


18. Jeannine H.

“I recently had the pleasure of hosting Jeannine for house sitting services. I cannot begin to express how impressed I was in her care for my senior dog, Jade, while I was away. I was provided frequent text message updates, including photos which were nothing short of professional grade. She politely provided me expertise and pointers regarding Jade’s feeding, and even detected and treated some minor health issues. She laundered and neatly folded everything she used, and seriously left the house in better shape when she departed. I chose her services based on previous recommendation from Rover clients, and was definitely not disappointed. I knew from the moment I met her that she possessed the maturity and integrity I was looking for in a house sitter. I highly recommend Jeannine for care of your pet. Bob B”


19. Max C.
About: I grew up taking care of cats and most recently a puppy who is now a young adult who can follow a list of basic commands. I love spending time with dogs and walking with them. I would love the opportunity to meet and take care of your dog as if they were my own! I am currently available every day during business hours, some weekends and evenings in advance! I am available to walk anytime past 9am and sit/drop in anytime past 9 am also! Trust and safety are my number 1-2 factors when it comes to being around animals of any kind. For my own fur babies, at my last place, we had a fenced in yard so i would always take my dog outside and never lose sight of her, even tho she is 80+ lbs! When/if i am watching your pets, safety will be my 1 priority and to make sure your pet is comfortable and feeling safe at all times
