“Anna is always professional, courteous and responds quickly. She’s also compassionate and caring and we feel that our pets are always safe and in good hands. It’s a pleasure working with Anna. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”

“Kelly was great! This was our first time using Rover and our experience was good. It was nice to get great pictures and updates on her visits with our dog. We were worry free while away having Kelly taking care of her. Our Lab got 2 walks a day and lots of attention and was very happy. We will be definitely be using Kelly again!”

“Armani went above and beyond taking care of my pups while my family was away for a week. They were loving her from the first moment they met her. We didn't have any fear my pups were being loved and cared for. Thank you Armani for taking care of my family! ❤️”

About: Though I LOVE dogs very much, unfortunately I couldn’t have the chance to own one yet. So, I’d love to spend time with some puppies and provide care for them. My friends have relied on me to walk and dog-sit their dogs so I have some experience. I’m working full-time but have the option to remote work on some days and most of Fridays. Depending on the location, I can walk/dog-sit after 8PM. I’m available to dog-sit over weekends! I’m living in an apartment so no back yard but there is a nice dog park and a couple of lakes and green area near my building. I’d love to play with your cat/dogs outside, spend some time with them relaxing and make sure they are well-fed and taken care of.
About: I have pet sat for many years for friends and family, but have done it professionally for about 3 years now. I work under a professional pet sitting company and am using Rover to fill my schedule. I work my full time job Sunday-Thursday 8 am-3:30/4:00 pm. When im not at work I am often pet sitting! When I pet sit I never leave for more than 4 hours at a time unless it is for work, and you will know ahead of time. I am willing to do drop ons on my lunch break, so long as I can do it and return by the time my lunch break is over. Usually depends on distance. My hours at work are somewhat flexible and I can occasionally finish out the day at home if needed. I do my best to make sure that the pet's usual routine is kept and I follow instructions to a tee. I keep the environment calm and welcoming so pets can warm up to me on their own time. I am a snuggle bug and am happy for pets to sleep in a bed with me--whatever makes them the most comfortable.
“Joe did an amazing job with my dog who is fearful of men, he was very patient and took the time to make sure he was comfortable before walking him. I would gladly have him check on my dog any time.”

“This was our first time using the app, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, she was communicative, professional, and incredibly kind. She took amazing care of our dog and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We received thoughtful updates, and it was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Ashley truly exceeded our expectations, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we trust. We will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.”

About: I cared for my German Shepherd for three years, raising him from four months old with daily training, exercise, and affection. I also fostered a six-month-old cat for six months, providing patient, loving care and enjoying every moment. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and full availability for the next month, ready to provide reliable, and great care every day of the week! I provide attentive, loving care by following each pet’s routine, ensuring proper feeding, exercise, playtime, and comfort—treating every pet like family whether in my home or theirs. 🐾
“Sophia came by for several drop in visits over the weekend while I was out of town! My two fur babies were well taken care of and seemed to really enjoy Sophia! She was very punctual and sent a lot of photos and updates! I highly recommend Sophia to care for your pups and I will definitely book with her again!”


“Kimberly took amazing care of our baby kitty while we were gone for a week. This was our first time using Rover and I was very weary of leaving him alone with a stranger but he quickly warmed up to Kimberly and she sent photos and videos daily with a summary of how he was doing. I will definitely be using Kimberly the next time we go out of town and aren't able to bring him along.”

“Geneva is a very patient pet sitter! I had a bit of trouble with my booking and she helped me through it and never made me feel bad about it. Would definitely recommend her and use her services again.”

“I hired Holly for drop in visits to inject insulin on my diabetic dog. She was very professional and punctual. He didn’t even feel the poke. I will definitely hire Holly again to care for my pets.”

“Thank you so, so much for taking care of Jun! It eased my anxiety knowing someone was there to come check on him and play with him for his first time alone overnight! Appreciated the daily photos and super responsiveness! Would absolutely book again!! :)”

“Leo has taken care of Lilo twice and is definitely our “go-to” guy! Lilo is so happy and well taken care of! He even gives us little details about their time together! Means so much!”

“Alicia was very friendly and sweet! She was punctual upon meeting me. She explained her history in pet sitting and personal hobbies. She loves animals and has a passion for them. I felt very comfortable having her drop in and care for my little guy. She updated me with text messages and pics in a timely matter. Loved that. She took great care of my little guy knowing his back injury and background. I will 100% be booking with Alicia again!”

“Amazing service! Estefania was always very quick to respond, punctual to her visits, and provided the best care for little kitten, Chloe! She went above and beyond my expectations, thank you so so much!”

“Brett was the best! Booked for drop in visits for a long holiday weekend and everything went so smooth. He was always on time and was able to handle our dog that can have a bit of a big personality at times. I will definitely be booking him again!”

Kristyna is AMAZING! Our dogs (who are wary around strangers) took other from the first visit, she's very good with them! She went ABOVE AND BEYOND by bringing in our mail, and when a water plpe in the house broke while we were away, she helped turn the water off, and cleaned up the water from the ground! 10/10 would hire again!
