“Olivia is very trustworthy! She has a little pup of her own to top it off! Anytime she’s see another fur baby you can tell her lil heart lights up 😊. She’ll take care of your puppies as if they were her own!”
2. Christlove L.
“Christlove did an amazing job taking care of my blind dog, Chuck. She took the time to understand his routine, quirks, and special needs, providing regular updates with photos. Despite Chuck’s blindness, Christlove was incredibly patient and attentive, ensuring he was well cared for with plenty of walks, playtime, and affection. Her attention to detail and genuine love for Chuck made the entire experience stress free for both Chuck and me. I highly recommend Christlove to anyone needing a sitter. Thanks again for all your help Christlove, we’ll be sure to use you again.”

About: Dog lover! I have 4 fur babies of my own, Gunner (9yr old), Bruce (7yr old), Aspen Rose (6yr old), Archie (3yr old). On the weekends you can find us going for a walk (yes, all 4 at the same time 🤗), playing fetch in the back yard, or making our weekly trip to the dog park. I have potty trained, crate trained, and taught basic commands to all of my babies. They are great with other dogs inside and outside of my home. Although pick up dog toys daily but it looks like PetSmart exploded in my living room multiple times a day. I work full time but am fortunate enough to be able to come home in the middle of the day for an hour to let the dogs out and play with them. I have a loving husband who is willing to let me come love on your pups while you’re away! I work full time but have the availability on my lunch break to play or let out for potty breaks. I love going for walks on the weekends or going to the dog park. I can follow any instructions needed to make sure your furry friend(s) are safe and cared for. I will stay as close to their normal schedule as possible.
12. Leah L.
“Leah is great! She truly loved and cared for my sweet senior boy. She stayed with him while I was on vacation and my picky boy just loved her so much. He doesn't love many people other than me, but he immediately warmed up to her and just adored every time she came to see him.”

About: My partner and I used to pet sit all the time together through rover. He is currently stationed away for the military but I still look forward to petting sitting to have some company while he is away. I also look forward to helping out families needing a sitter. I live and work on a military base and can be able to tend to your pets during my lunch breaks. I work a normal 8-4 so your pets will not be by themselves for long while I’m at work. I also have a spare bedroom if they do not have a crate. There is a dog park near my residence as well as a lake with a walk path. I primary stay at home doing school work when not at work.
16. Maddy M.
“Maddy is an excellent pet sitter! I've requested her services over a dozen times for my little fir babies and I have never been disappointed. Extremely professional, caring, and loved by all of my pups and kitties! 10/10 would reccomend.”
17. Ella S.
“Ella is a former co-worker of mine and both share a love of all animals. We worked together at a boarding and daycare facility where we cared for dogs and Ella would go above and beyond, always making sure the pups felt at home and had everything they needed. Whether that was extra cuddles or blankets or making sure they had all of their medicine and treats.. She is a responsible and loving pet caregiver. She made special bonds with many of the pups there. They were always excited to see her! The clients and dogs loved her!”
18. Lily Z.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. The availability I have is on weekends and after 4 pm on weekdays, available holidays. Stay overnight and accept long-term stays (longer than one week). I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!
