âAhliah was fantastic with my dog. He is an energetic, senior rescue dog who "failed" boarding. So, I was nervous to leave him for 2 weeks and tried to find someone on Rover. Ahliah came over for 2 meet and greets to get him comfortable before I left on the trip. She did a wonderful job caring for him and also fed my fish and watered my plants. She was respectful and responsive throughout. My dog has been sleeping next to Ahliah's desk since I came back. He clearly enjoyed her company as much as I appreciated having her there! I will certainly hire her again and recommend her highly.â

âJaime exceeded my expectations. She spoiled moose rotten. Her communication skillls are excellent, she kept me updated with regular text messages and pictures during her stay. I will definetly be using her puppy/house sitting services again! ??â
About: I am a 30 year old mom of 2 kids and 1 furbaby. I have had dogs, cats, sugar gliders, turtles, rabbits and even horses growing up. I have volunteered at animal shelters my whole 4 years in high school and had a total of 4 dogs in my home at once for 8 years. I am animal cpr certified. I have alot of experience but most of all alot of love. And love is what keeps your animals safe and happy! I work from home and have open availability due to owning my business. Open space for feeding and playing. Lots of potty breaks! Lots of toys! I do not cage pets unless asked by parents. I do have an open cage that never shuts. Big couch and multiple beds to sleep on!
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the genuine love and dedication I have for every animal in my care. I treat each pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities. My reliability, calm nature, and strong communication with pet owners help build trust and peace of mind. I go the extra mile to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my healthy daily routine by keeping me active, mindful, and present. Walking dogs and playing with pets gets me moving outdoors and helps me stay physically fit. Caring for animals also reduces stress and boosts my mood, supporting my mental well-being. The structure and responsibility keep me focused and grounded throughout the day. Itâs a fulfilling way to stay healthy while doing something I truly love. When dog sitting and dog walking, I make sure each pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I stick to their regular routines, provide fresh food and water, and give them plenty of love and attention. During walks, I ensure they get the right amount of exercise while staying safe and stimulated. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and always update owners with photos and notes. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would at home.
âAlex did an outstanding job taking care of my dog, Blanch. I was initially anxious about leaving her with someone new, as she is very energetic and has a tendency to nip, so Iâm always selective about who I trust around her. However, I recently went on vacation for a week and hired Alex to stay with her, and he exceeded my expectations. He was incredible, and Blanch adored him. His ability to adapt to different types of dogs, not just small lapdogs, is truly impressive. Whether your dog requires extra attention, special care, or frequent walks, Alex is attentive and agile. Blanch had her own little vacation with him, being pampered all week long. In fact, she wasnât too pleased when I returned home and things went back to normal! Iâm so grateful for Alexâs love and dedication to animals. I will definitely be using his services again.â

Just let me know your preferences and I will be sure to satisfy them I enjoy doing different activities with dogs, such as running and playing.

âHannie did an amazing job! Fenway enjoyed all the playtime and the attention Hannie gave him. She sent constant updates and was diligent in checking in with us. Highly recommend!â

âAbsolute top tier, professional dog lover. Nothing but positive things to say about Hendrich. He also sends lots of pics and videos. He helped me and Tobi in a pinch very quickly!â

âCristina did an excellent job housesitting with my 9 week old Havapoo puppy, Bleu. Puppies can be a handful, but Cristina kept him happy, safe, clean, and well fed when we needed to go away for the day. Even though he can sometimes be shy, Bleu took to Christina right away, and it was clear that he had a great day filled with lots of playing and cuddles. Cristina was very polite, accommodating, and responsive, and send adorable videos and pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. She was a real pleasure to interact with and a huge stress reliever to know that she was taking good care of our little guy. We will definitely have Cristina back again the next time we need to leave Bleu!â

Islands pet parents share their Rover experiences
These guys were absolutely amazing! They house sat for four nights with our 1 yr old Mini Aussie who has endless energy, and they did an incredible job. They were polite, respectful, and took excellent care of our home. They walked our dog even more than we asked and spent so much time playing with him. They actually managed to tire him out, which is no small task! They also sent frequent updates with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog can get a little nervous when weâre away, but they handled bedtime and everything else so well. Weâve used other Rovers before, and they truly knocked it out of the park. 10/10 highly recommend!

Ahnisha (Lola) was so so SO wonderful. Our first time using Rover. She was incredibly communicative, sent pictures and updates throughout the day and watched our 11 week old pup right from our home. It was so wonderful. She followed our instructions and even asked some specifics we hadnât thought of. Hamm loved her, had such a fun day with lots of playing and lots of napping. Simply wonderful and would book again :) thank you Lola!!!

Carolane was amazing!! She was prompt with all responses and helped keep me updated with my babies while I was gone. She was great with my older dog Bella and my kitten Rae who recently had surgery so that was a huge relief for me as having multiple animals can be tough! We will be looking forward to our next booking with Carolane again :)

Krystalynn was great with our 11 week old dachshund puppy! We were super nervous leaving him with someone for the first time but our pup warmed right up to her and he was super well behaved the entire time she was at our condo! We booked super last minute and also extended the end time while we were out and she was very accommodating. Will use again and will definitely recommend!

Olga was absolutely amazing with Mia and Milos! She is incredibly thoughtful and caring, she fed them on time, took them out regularly, and kept me updated with every little detail. I loved all the photos she sent throughout their stay, which made me feel so comfortable and at ease. My dogs were truly happy with her. I would definitely have her watch them again. Highly recommend!

I had an amazing experience with Gioconda. She took care of both of my dogs and went above and beyond with everything. She were responsible, communicative, and treated my dogs like their own. I came home to two happy, relaxed pups â which says everything. If youâre looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to watch your pets, I highly recommend Gioconda. Iâll definitely be booking with them again!
I reached out to Jose Gabriel very last minute and he was willing to help me out in a pinch. He was very responsive, followed the instructions I left for him, and sent me lots of updates. I will definitely be using his services in the future. I am so grateful for his help!
