“Audrey is a great sitter for my cats. She even took care of my tanks too. My cats are safe and happy. I got informed everyday and never got worried for my babies. I will definetly book her again”

“Stella did a great job watching our dog for us in our house while we went out of town. Our dog has separation anxiety and so we always look for a sitter who is willing to stay home with him. Stella followed through on her word and that gave us peace of mind while we traveled. We would recommend and book Stella again.”

“Vanessa’s level of care and thoughtfulness she provided was like nothing I’ve experienced on Rover before. The organization, the communication, the updates - it went above and beyond each time. Our two boys looked so happy and loved with her. HIGHLY recommend and will absolutely ask her again to stay with Ghost and Rooster in the future. 10/10”


“Got it 😄 here’s a short, playful, 5-star version: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Claire was amazing with our Mylo! She followed all of his daddies’ very specific (ok… slightly neurotic 😅) instructions perfectly and kept us smiling with great photos and updates. Mylo was clearly happy, relaxed, and totally loved. We would book Claire again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend! 🐾💙”

“Gabriella was amazing. Fun, kind, and Milo loved her. She helped take care of our baby on our wedding day, even came to the venue to take pictures with him and drove him back! Thank you!”


About: I am full time at home. I grew up with dogs, macaws, parakeets, rabbits, and tortoises. Each animal has its own unique personality just like us humans and I find that fascinating. I have taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was very young. I would love to spend time with your paw babies. **If you have a high energy pup I can run with your dog** Being home full time, allows me to give your pet all the attention they deserve and need while they are in my care. Having plenty of time and flexibility allows me to give them company, playtime and walks with them. I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced yard and two dog parks within a 2 minute walk. As well many grassy areas for them to walk comfortably. I have plenty of indoor space for your pets bedding or crate if needed as well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am mainly home all day , unless I need to step out to the store. I have a 9 year old spayed female American bulldog mix. My sweetest girl I’ll ever meet. She is super friendly with every other dog whether it’s a puppy to a senior dog :) I am currently a home body , as I am in school . I like to cater to the pets around me for now til I do finish my school. I do live in an apartment , but the pet I will be taking care of will always be on a leash outside my door. Once inside my home, they are open to every room and furniture:))
“Leo helped me out when I was in a jam. He agreed to take care of my dog and cat on very short notice and did a great job with them, keeping me informed multiple times per day. Highly recommend.”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for years. I provide walks, feeding, playtime, and basic training. Pets receive love, attention, and personalized care always. I’m available all day on Sunday and Monday and for the rest of the week only on nights, plenty of time for walks, play, and care! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs for company. Your pet will be safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Crates available if needed.

About: I’m new to professional dog sitting, but I’m extremely responsible, detail-oriented, and committed to following care instructions exactly as requested. I understand how important routines, safety, and clear communication are when caring for someone else’s pet. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, leashed walks, basic care, and providing calm companionship. I take this responsibility seriously and will always prioritize your dog’s comfort and well-being. As an entrepreneur with a flexible schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I’m home often, work from my phone, and enjoy building calm, consistent days that include walks, check-ins, and quality time with pets. I focus on caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow routines closely and treat each home with care and respect.
“Denys took amazing care of our dog Rocky while we were away. He was reliable, caring, and kept us at ease knowing Rocky was in great hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. Highly recommend!”

About: I have a genuine, deep love for all pets in this world… mine have been the most important part of my life. When my baby kitty Lenny crossed the heavenly rainbow bridge last year, Gideon and Einstein rescued me. My focus is specific and consistent: “What does your best friend need? How can I provide this need to them? Is the environment low stress? Your fur babies are so important to me because I truly understand how important they are to YOU. Having no human children myself, believe me, fur babies are EVERYTHING! I put my absolute best effort into making sure your pet feels safe and experiences the least amount of anxiety as possible. I also assist with Senior day care cleaning, shopping etc. References upon request if needed. I am available to work five days a week and weekends if necessary. I’m grateful to have a flexible schedule; I’ve earned the trust to have access into peoples’ homes to care for their animals. I treat every single animal and pet as if they were my own. I make sure to have every day fulfilled with at least a little bit of furry affection or my day just isn’t the same! I have a pet-friendly, pet-safe, pet-happy home! Making sure all the fur babies in my home have what they need is “what I DO!” My sweet cat Gideon couldn’t get more nurturing! He’s very healthy, independent and gentle with his guests”! My philosophy with my home and my animals is: When in MY care, your baby’s safety, good health, and comfort is guaranteed in the anxiety-free environment I provide. I’m extremely attentive to their individual needs, hands-on, and I work hard at that. Their are no short-cuts, no days off with my animals.

“Amber recently house sat with our 2 dogs and she was excellent. She was quick to respond, came out for an initial meet and greet and immediately made us feel comfortable with her watching over both pets. She had great communication, sent photos, and the dogs really liked her. Would highly recommend Amber to watch your pets!”

“I am so grateful with Marina. She came home on time and was so attentive and took care of Candela as she was me. Experienced with elderly and medically compromised dog.

About: I grew up with German Shepherds and Saint Bernards and was responsible for bathing, feeding, and exercising them. I also have experience caring for smaller dogs such as Shih Tzus, Cavalier King Charles, Maltese, Poodles, Goldendoodle, Dachshund, Lhasa Apso, Shiba Inu, French Bulldog, and Corgi. I’m a former middle school teacher. I'm trustworthy, reliable, and I WILL LOVE & CARE FOR YOUR PET AS YOU LOVE & CARE FOR YOUR PET! My services typically include dog walks, doggie day care, and dog boarding. I usually have repeat clients and have ongoing long-term set schedules. I am currently retired so I can devote my full time attention to your pet(s). However, I currently have Tues., Thurs. Fri. and some weekends available. I can only provide services at home for two smaller dogs, preferably from the same family. I have two small, private, fenced-in yards. In addition, I live very close to the Don Soffer walking trail, and the Waterways Marina, all of which have little or no traffic. I have no housemates or personal pets, so I can give your pet my undivided attention.
About: Since childhood, I have raised my own dogs and have trained myself empirically to care for them, look after them, and ensure their well-being. I have experience with all kinds of dogs I can care for and walk your dog on weekends, day or night. On weekdays, it’s also possible with good planning. Any routine your dog has! I travel to your home and adapt to all your logistical and scheduling needs, as well as those of your pets, providing the activity, love, and patience they require.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I assure you that I’m going to take care of your dog as it was mine. I have a dog at home so I know they need to be walked. I’m reliable so you can trust me with your dogs routine (how many times they need to be walked, feed and give them water), I’ll pet them, play with them and walk them for how long you need me to. I assure you your dog is in the best hands! If i have to stay at your house I really assure you you’ll find everything organized and in place. Please give me the opportunity to show you that your dog is going to love me and you will too! I am currently in between jobs, just doing occupational babysitting so i have plenty of time to take care of your pets! And i love the extra cardio I have a house with a fenced backyard so your dog would be safe to play outside or just chill inside in the AC. If you are more comfortable with me coming to your house, I will make sure to follow any instructions you leave for the care of your pet.
Ives Estates pet parents share their Rover experiences
Taylor was simply amazing with Mulan. She was kind, attentive, and it was clear how much she truly loves animals. Mulan felt so comfortable with her, which means everything to me. But what made the experience truly special was the beautiful detail at the end—she gave me a collage with photos from the days she spent with Mulan… it honestly made me cry. I wil definitely rebook with her again

Herbert was extremely communicative and proactive when it came to caring for my 3 cats! He sent daily updates and was sure to ask questions when any concerns came up. He followed all directions and went above and beyond to make sure my pets felt cared for. Very grateful for his service and I will be booking him again in the near future!!

Izzy watched our senior cat, dog & frog for a week and was amazing! Highly recommend her to everyone. She sent daily pictures and even took our pup to the beach and on different adventures. They all loved their time with her so much and my wife and I fully trust her! It’s never easy letting someone new into your home but she was the perfect fit. Thank you Izzy! 10/10 experience

10/10 would recommend! Eliza went above and beyond all expectations this weekend for my dog and I. She asked all the right questions prior to her stay which was an immediate green flag. My dog is very cautious and sensitive around new people. Eliza used techniques to familiarize and comfort my dog. I recommend her to anyone, she is professional and her love and knowledge with animals shows in her work. She sent me lots of pics and updates, was flexible when I had to adjust my schedule. So glad I found her!!

We had an excellent experience with Diana. She was punctual, and so sweet. She stayed in our home for several hours, and we felt completely comfortable having her in our home. Our dog usually doesn't engage immediately but she was truly patient and understanding. We will absolutely book her again, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

Rhokia was a wonderful dog sitter who took amazing care of my very attached Cavalier, Jax, while I was away on a work trip. Each day, she sent detailed updates about their walks and excursions, along with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even brought him toys! She made sure he was well-fed, gave him treats and plenty of affection, and most importantly, truly cared for and loved him while I was away. She was also a respectful guest in my home and left everything just as she found it—clean and organized. I can’t say enough great things about Rhokia and the exceptional care she provides. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.

This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter, and I was honestly very nervous. He sent me so many photos and videos, which made me feel calm and reassured the entire time. I always knew what was going on and that my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m very grateful for the constant updates and truly appreciate the care and attention he gave. Highly recommend.

Fiona was amazing with our fur babies. We went on an extended trip for our wedding and honeymoon. Fiona sent us video and picture updates that made us feel as ease during our travels. My bulldog even got himself a girlfriend, played so well with Luna. Fiona went above and beyond I would definitely love for her to watch our babies again.

Emily was an amazing in-home sitter for my two senior dogs, one of which is handicapped with special medical needs. Emily was very communicative and took the time to make sure she was prepared to take care of my dogs before the stay. While I was gone she made sure to update me with photos and videos so I wouldn’t stress. I came home to 2 happy, healthy, and well cared for dogs. So I would definitely recommend Emily!

Amber did an amazing job taking care of our boys for our 2 weeks trip, first time we use a sitter for that long of a period but we didn’t have any concerns while we were overseas, she was very responsive even with a crazy 13 hours time zone difference. Will definitely keep booking Amber for our upcoming trips if she’s available.

Joalys was wonderful and communicated really well during the entire stay. This was my first time using the service to house sit and thankfully it worked out to be a great experience thanks to her. I highly recommend her services as she communicates really well and is great with animals.
