We couldn’t be more grateful for the care Justine provided. From the beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and professional and we received regular updates and photos, which made being away so much easier. When we returned home, our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. That says everything. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate dog sitter.

Alina was a great dog sitter for us and did so well with our pup while we were out of town. She’s very kind, responsible and responsive. She also communicated well with us, sent us pictures of walks and cuddles with our pup, and kept us updated, which made us feel very reassured while we were away. I highly recommend her for your pet needs!

Angela was very prompt, responsible, and communicative. I booked her a few weeks in advance, she came over once to meet my dog and get an idea of her routine. She then came back the day before my trip for a refresher. She took care of my dog exactly as we had discussed and sent regular pictures and updates while I was gone. My home was exactly as I left it when I got back. Would definitely use Angela again!

I cannot say enough good things about Maria. I have never had a bad experience with any of the walkers, sitters, etc. with Rover but Maria is in a class all her own. She watched my boy, Toby for a week and he was so loved and cared for. She sent pictures of their extended walks, and many of her just loving on him. She took him to her house and introduced him to her cats and it was amazing. I know he was so happy and therefore I never had to worry once about him. I highly recommend her as I will be using her again and again. She is a treasure!!!

Oh, I’m not quite sure where to begin. Owen is such an incredibly sweet, caring and kind young man! We’ve used Rover several times as well as neighbors and friends and family over the years to watch our dogs (we have a 1.5 year old golden doodle, a 7-year-old mini cockapoo, and a 12 yr old miniature boxer) we decided to take a last minute vacation to go see our daughter in North Carolina, which means we were gonna be a good 6 to 7 hours away as well from our dogs, which was nerve-racking and none of our usual people were available. In fact, I couldn’t find anyone available because of the short notice in the five star review arena. I was hesitant to book Owen because the Rover rating had him only like a 2 1/2 star review. But I read the comments and he had two other five star raving reviews and then just one pretty negative rating, but my gut just kept bringing me back to him telling me to give him a chance, so I did. Well you know the saying, “Always trust your gut?” Definitely didn’t fail us with Owen! Our dogs can be pretty intimidating when someone comes up to our dorm. They barrow and sound really ferocious and then they jump all over you be a handful. Owen took right to them and they took right to him! Oh, I forgot to mention the other thing I was nervous about with booking Owen is that he is male. My boxer is not usually a fan of guys whatsoever and he’s super protective if I’m the only one around and not only did he not growl or act standoffishat all towards Owen he seemed like he had known him forever! I honestly wish I could share the photos on here of that same dog Ling with Owen and one of the several photos he sent me. He did every single thing I asked 100% correctly! Which honestly that’s shocking because I leave a full one page document single spaced typed out for people staying at our house watching the dogs and I expect people to forget or missstuff it because it is a lot! Heck my husband and teenage son that live with the dogs full-time don’t remember everything that I want done. Lol Owen didn’t miss a single thing! On top of that, I also have Ringcameras all around the exterior of my home and he played with them and loved on them and they loved on him. In fact I think they even slept with him at night! Lol we got daily check ins from Owen and anything that he noticed was concerning or had questions on he messaged us. And was always super apologetic about disturbing us on vacation. He’s probably nice to a fault Ha! He also washed his bedding in the bedhe stayed in, put our dishes away and some other things which 110,000% is not expected at all! The other thing was shocking is whenever we leave even if family is watching the dogs the dogs will rarely eat and they were so comfortable with him they ate normally! Fortunately with us, we’ve never had any bad experiences with anyone we’ve used on Rover and I would have any of them back again! That being said, there’s just such a loving kind energy that comes off of him that the dogs pick up on so he will be my first call for our next vacation. My husband and I were so impressed with him. We’ve actually thought about reaching out to Rover and seeing if that one negative review could be removed because I get everyone has different experiences, but I just don’t know how there could’ve been such an enormouschange from that review to now is, it’s just not even his character or personality which you will understand if you book him which I highly recommend you do! He should be there with the other five star people, hands-down! So Owen, thank you so very much for loving our babies while we were gone and making us feel so so very comfortable that I don’t have to stress about leaving again! You are a kind soul and I know you had asked me for any tips or suggestions or feedback I can give you for the next time that you can improve on and young man I cannot think of a single thing and that is saying a lot coming from someone like me who is a perfectionist and OCD! We can’t wait to have you over again and I know Jax,Nahla and Montana can’t wait for you to come and stay again also!

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats being a part of my family since I was a kid who enjoyed giving extra treats to my grandmother's Chow Chow! I have experience with dog walking and pet sitting for friends and family. I have a pretty open weekly schedule as I am currently between jobs. I also have reliable transportation so getting to your pets will be no problem! I will do everything in my power to make sure your pet feels safe and welcome in my company. If this means extra belly rubs or treats, then I can make that happen!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Jamie as our dog sitter! Not only did Jamie take exceptional care of our furry friends, but they also went above and beyond in ensuring our home was looked after during our absence. Jamie's attention to detail and genuine love for animals was evident in every interaction. They followed all of our instructions meticulously and kept us updated with dail adorable photos of our pets, which really put our minds at ease. We returned home to happy pets and a spotless house, thanks to Jamie's conscientiousness and reliability. We wholeheartedly recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we will definitely be booking them again for our future trips.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was around 11 years old and I had a cat when I was little. I absolutely adore animals and believe they deserve the absolute best care. I currently have a full time job but am free every day after 5:30. I will happily take care of your fur baby in the morning before work, on my hour lunch break, and after work. Fully available every other Saturday (after 1:30 on the others) and every Sunday. I make sure my dog is properly fed throughout the day and always has clean water. I take him outside every few hours to use the bathroom and so he can run around and play in the fresh air.

About: I have worked with animals professionally for 15 years straight but have had pets of my own my entire life. I have a soft spot for senior pets, and can administer medications and provide light grooming at an additional cost. I am comfortable working with dogs, and cats. I am a full-time employee but have the ability to take my pet sits with me to work. I keep my sits local so I can utilize my lunch-breaks to check on pets. I have pets of my own that I care for daily. I prefer to keep dogs crated if staying in my home while I'm out of the house to ensure their safety as well as my own pets safety. I do require a rabies vaccine and flea/tick/heartworm to be given if an animal is to stay in my home.

About: I love dogs and have nothing else to do and your dog will be my entire focus. I have had 3 dogs since I was a kid and have baby sat them and my sister’s dog. I am around the whole summer and would love to watch your dogs. I have also helped train my dogs and gone to training for them as well. I have watched my 2 digs for over a week on my own and my sisters for a week as well I will shape my day around your dog and any dogs I am sitting or watching that day. I have nothing this summer. The only activity I do regularly is lift. If your dog needs a morning walk I will lift later same goes for afternoon walks If you have a fenced yard I will play with your dog after the walk and make sure they get lots of treats and attention

About: As a dedicated dog walker and in-home pet sitter with over two years of experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I care for every dog (and cat!) as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs and routines. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun, and tailored walks ✅ Home visits that follow your pet’s schedule ✅ Clean water, food, meds (if needed), and lots of affection ✅ Daily photo updates and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going ✅ Respect for your home and your pet’s space I’m trained in basic pet first aid and always check collars, leashes, and gates before heading out. Whether it’s a quiet walk or an energy-burning play session, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priority. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of how flexible and rewarding it is. Since I set my own schedule, I can book pet care clients around my part-time job shifts and study blocks, which helps me stay balanced and productive. Walking dogs gives me a much-needed mental reset from screen time and studying, and it keeps me active throughout the day. It’s also a great way to supplement my income without taking on another traditional job. Most of all, spending time with animals brings me a lot of joy and motivation — it breaks up long study days and reminds me why I love what I do Whether you’re at work or away for a few days, I provide reliable, in-home care that keeps your pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and medication routines, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. 🔐 Safety & Professionalism Equipped for pet first aid always carrying a kit Detailed home-entry and security protocols Leash and harness checks before every walk Weather-conscious and always alert to potential hazards Respectful of your home, your pets, and your time 📸 Peace of Mind After each visit, you’ll receive a photo and short update so you know how your furry friend is doing — because trust is built on communication

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats, including those with medication needs and I've managed to make connections with pets that had apparently never warmed up to sitters. My internal alarm clock has me awake before 7 on most mornings and I immediately feed my own cats Flower and Eevee and my dog Sprocket. After this my day is mostly open to fulfill your pets needs! I I always try to make the pet feel comfortable with me just existing in their space before care begins, I've found that the pets seeing me with their owner is a good way to start off establishing trust. I do my best to adjust myself and my activities to the pet's routine and their needs so that my presence is a minimal disruption.
