Hannah was an amazing sitter! She took great pictures of my cat as well as pictures to make sure I knew he had food, clean litter and water! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future!

Beth helped me out when my sitter fell through and I was already out of town. She was able to jump in with barely any notice AND I cannot express how thankful I was for her flexibility to help me out on a holiday. My two dogs looked so happy in all of the picture updates she sent. I would definitely book again :)

Amy was wonderful with our older puppies while we were on vacation. She took extra care of any accidents and made sure they always had exercise and love. We always received updates every visit and you could tell our pups were so happy. Extremely happy and appreciative for her care for our fur babies.

Haley was incredible! We were nervous about leaving our puppy alone for the first time, but she came to do a meet and greet to get to know our puppy which made us feel so much better! She always gave lots of picture updates, made sure he pottied and had lots of play time during her visits as well! We plan on booking her again if we need any other drop-in visits! Thanks, Haley!!

Highly recommend! At the meet and greet she was so easy to talk to and our dog Luna loved her! While we were away I didnt worry if callie and luna were taken care of, she sent pictures of them getting all the love and attention. I think our house was cleaner than when we left too, 10/10 will be using every time we go out of town!

This is our first time using Rover. We wanted someone who was mature and responsible and Jeanne was a great fit. She was prompt and caring from the start. She sent messages and pictures every time and followed the details of our instructions. She was also thoughtful and thorough in how she cared for our kitty. We especially appreciate Jeanne giving time and space for our kitty to warm up to her and make sure she was comfortable with interaction. We recommend Jeane!

I can't recommend Morgan enough! She took amazing care of my 2 dogs while I was away and followed every instruction perfectly. She made sure they got plenty of attention and even played fetch with my golden during every visit, which she absolutely loved. After it rained and the dogs tracked mud through the house, she even went above and beyond by mopping my floors without being asked. It's clear she truly cares about the pets she watches, and takes pride in doing a good job. I felt completely at ease 200 miles away knowing they were in such great hands, and I'll absolutely be booking with her again!

Felecia was so awesome! Resun and Roxy absolutely love her I can tell and are very comfortable with her. They even let her bathe them lol. We appreciate her patience during the 2 meet and greets as well for she did not have to do that. She took great care of our home EVEN washed their dog bowls out🫂☺️ We are grateful to know her and be able to travel freely now without worry. Thank you Felecia! See you again soon

About: Big or Small, Special Needs and All—A Sniff Adventure Awaits! ​Hi, I'm Frankie! Animals have been the center of my world for as long as I can remember. I’ve spent my entire life raising and caring for pets of every shape and size—from cats and dogs ranging from tiny to extra-large. ​My home is currently run by a wonderful, chaotic crew of four: ​Merc: My fluffy cat who rightfully considers himself the king of the house. ​My Energetic Pitty: A sweet, high-energy powerhouse who keeps life exciting. ​My Two Special Needs Pups: One who is completely blind, and another with neurological challenges. ​Why Choose Me? ​Living with special needs pets means "cautious and attentive" isn't just a tagline for me—it's my daily reality. I have deep experience and endless patience when it comes to walking blind dogs and pups who have trouble navigating or walking in a straight line. ​Whether your dog is a high-energy athlete who needs a solid workout, a delicate senior who wants a slow, gentle stroll, or a special needs pup who requires extra vigilance and a patient hand, I’ve got you covered. I treat every single animal with the same customized care, safety, and love that I give my own. ​I can't wait to meet your furry family member and take them on their next great sniff adventure! I am currently a full-time graduate student finishing up my master's degree. Because my studies allow for a highly flexible schedule, I have plenty of open availability throughout the workweek to drop in and walk your pups while you are at the office. Treating Your Furry Family Like My Very Own In my own home, I take extreme care of my pets. Living with special needs animals and a high-energy pit bull means safety, structure, and deep attentiveness are built into my daily routine. I bring that exact same level of high-standard, vigilant care to your home and your pets.

Rodney was great. He was able to come 3 times a day to check in on our dog and cat. He sent us lots of pictures which made my day. I look forward to using him in the future. I felt comfortable knowing they were well taken care of with him checking in and I knew the time of day when he came and left. Thanks Rodney !!

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience working in animal shelters, dog daycare centers, and boarding facilities. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and needs. After recently losing my beloved dogs, I realized I wasn't quite ready for another long-term commitment, but I deeply missed having dogs around. Rover has given me the perfect opportunity to open my home and heart to dogs while helping other pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands. I'm a stay-at-home mom, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I also have two cats who grew up with dogs and are comfortable sharing their space, as well as two young children who have been around dogs their entire lives and know how to interact respectfully with them. For the comfort and safety of every pet in my care, I only accept dogs from one household at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention and create a calm, stress-free environment during their stay. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. My mornings typically begin with feeding pets, potty breaks, walks, or playtime before my family's daily activities start. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I can accommodate additional potty breaks, outdoor time in our fenced yard, feeding schedules, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and enrichment. In the evenings, pets are included in our family's relaxed routine, with more playtime, walks, and cuddles before bedtime. For boarding and daycare, dogs are rarely left unattended, and I only accept pets from one household at a time to ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention. I care for every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. Dogs have access to our large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and because I am home throughout the day, they receive consistent attention and companionship. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, which allows me to focus on their individual needs and maintain a low-stress environment. For cats, I ensure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and attention at their comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a quiet and reliable caretaker, I respect their personality and routine. I am also comfortable following special instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Haley did an amazing job taking care of my three cats while I was away on vacation for a week. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. She kept me updated with lots of photos, which was incredibly reassuring and made me being away from them so much easier. Haley is thorough, reliable, caring and genuinely sweet. It’s clear she truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Joanna was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to care for my cat. My cat was hiding, and instead of giving up, Joanna patiently spent over 30 minutes searching for her and even stayed past her scheduled time to make sure she was okay. That level of dedication meant so much to me. She kept me updated with adorable pictures, gave my cat lots of love and attention, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It’s obvious that Joanna truly cares about the animals she looks after, not just completing the job. I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter and will absolutely book her again. I highly recommend Joanna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and genuinely devoted to their pets.

Racheal was wonderful with Winston. With him being new to the family we haven’t figured out all his behavioral tendencies and I felt pretty good since she works with shelter dogs. She sent lots of updates about his personality, food intake and output 🙂, and a ton of photos, which I loved! We won’t hesitate to reach out to Racheal in the future for drop-in visits for Winston.

I have in the past had Katelyn care for my cat and dog for weekend trips. I recently had a week-long work training session out of the area. Without hesitation, I booked her to watch over my crew. If you want a pet sitter who you know will take care of your pets, I highly recommend her! She is dependable, and I received regular updates; she was also on time with her visits. But also I knew she treated my crew with the same love and attention as if they were her pets. I knew that when I was away, my crew was in good hands - the best. Highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter.
