“Vivian is AMAZING. We had to travel for just a few days and we left Blitzen at the house (he has a dog door) and had Vivian check in for feedings. He was so relaxed when we got home. No kennel anxiety! Vivian always takes excellent care of him.”


“It's crucial to ensure that your pets will be well cared for, and Ellen exceeded all expectations in this regard.

“Skylar was everything we could ask for in a Dogsitter! She was timely and provided us with updates and photos of our 3 pups during her visit, looking happy! 😃 She was very detailed about her time with the dogs & we will absolutely be using her again!”


“Having a new rescue dog we knew we needed someone who could handle not only his size and energy, but reinforce the right training and schedule we needed. Jai has done just that! He not only gives him great exercise with long walks and runs, but he has helped to improve his behavior during walks. Now our dog is pulling less on the leash, and listening to commands better during walks. We saw a change after just two walks with Jai! He is reliable and prompt to his drop in visits, and communicates well so we are never guessing how it is going or when he comes/goes. Having a dog walker for the first time we are lucky Jai made our experience so great and easy! Thanks Jai!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs and adore animals of all kinds. With over 10 years of experience caring for my family dog and currently caring for five cats, I ensure all my pets are well-fed, hydrated, and active. I love taking dogs for walks to help them burn off energy, and my experience spans from puppies and kittens to senior pets. I also pet-sit for friends, providing trusted care while they’re away. I am in my junior year of college and my pets are an integral part of my daily life. I start each day by ensuring they have fresh water and their meals. I set aside time for walks with my dog, which also helps me unwind and stay active. In the evenings, after my classes and study sessions, I make time for play and interaction with my cats, ensuring they get the attention and exercise they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize safety by securing potential hazards and following specific instructions from the owner. Building trust is essential, so I adhere to the pet’s routine and keep the owner updated with regular communication and photos. I respect the home environment by maintaining cleanliness and ensuring the pet’s comfort through their favorite spots and toys. My goal is to provide a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable experience for both the pet and the owner.

About: I have 15+ years of experience pet sitting for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I grew up owning cats, but I have walked and watched dogs overnight. I currently work full time during week, but I can fit evening walks, play dates, and possibly other services depending on the time and day. I have more availability on the weekends. I never had another person or clients pet in my home. I would go to their residence. I’m very attentive to every animal I’m responsible for when I’m with them.

Iselin dog parents share their Rover experiences
I'm so glad I found Rover, and through Rover, Eva. She's such a wonderful sitter. She really did a great job caring for my pets and the rover platform is great for providing updates. I got lots of pictures, a map of their walks, and a detailed description of Eva's care visits. Based on my experience, I will continue on using Rover and will hope that Eva will always be available whenever my pets need care.

Skylar is really great sitter and our puppy was super happy with her around. Setup a meet and greet and got acquainted, she went through feeding instructions, took Maximus for a walk and made everything very easy and comfortable. Recommend her services and will repeat her again for Maximus.

This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dogs, Mocha and Matcha, home alone, so I was very anxious. I hired McKenna in advance, and she even did a couple of visits while we were still home to get to know them. When the actual trip started, I felt so guilty I almost cut it short—but McKenna reassured me with such kindness. She followed every instruction, came twice a day, fed, walked, and played with them, sent photo updates, and even stayed extra time to comfort them. Mocha doesn’t usually trust strangers, but she warmed up to McKenna quickly. Matcha loved her too! McKenna made the whole experience smooth and worry-free. I’ve already asked if she’s available again in July! So grateful and blessed to have found someone who truly treats my pups like her own.
