“Jessica was AWESOME and came through for me on a short notice! She was punctual and sweet! Quick response and easy to communicate with! My pup was taken good care of and got the much needed exercise! Will continue to book with her!!!”

“Ignacio did an amazing job! I have 6 pugs with very different personalities and they all loved him! He did a check in with them at my home while we were away and everything went great! He was attentive and paid close attention to detail. This was my first time using rover and I’m glad we got him to look over our beans. I will definitely be booking with him again”

“Allison was great! I booked her very last minute, and she still made time to come over to do a greet and meet. She’s clearly a dog lover, and our pups instantly fell in love with her. And very affordable rates! 10/10 would rebook in the future!”

“Truly the best sitter!! Hera absolutely loved her and I felt confident my sweet dog was in great hands. She gave detailed recaps of each visit which was so appreciated and I enjoyed reading those when I would have service! Will absolutely book again and recommend to anyone who is nervous of leaving their fur babies in new hands.”

“Sarah helped take care of my little guy over the weekend. She was a quick study for an old cat with a few extraordinary needs. She showed up at the requested times and provided adequate summaries. Her care for my Wyatt was spot on.”

“Cannot say enough great things about Ericka. Trusted her completely from the start. She was so thorough with her pictures and check-ins. It was clear my pets loved spending time with her. Will definitely use her again!”
“Highly recommend JP! JP took great care of our pups and was dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. It gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I would absolutely book with JP again.”

About: A new chapter has me working from home full-time — and I’m so excited to open my home again! I’d love to care for your pup while you’re away, offering cuddles, calm vibes, and a cozy space shared with my two small resident dogs. 🐾 Meet the Crew: Iggy is my 14-year-old tripod and self-appointed commander-in-chief. He mostly keeps to his cozy corner, supervising the house and making sure playtime doesn’t get out of hand. Dolly is my 4-year-old shadow. She’s a little shy at first but warms up quickly. If your pup wants to play, she’s in — but she’s just as happy to nap nearby and match their energy. 💛 My Experience: I fostered dogs for over seven years — from tiny puppies to more sensitive or reactive rescues. That variety helped me get really good at reading dog dynamics, adjusting space, and creating a low-stress, respectful environment for everyone involved. 🏡 My Setup: Pups have free roam of the living room and kitchen (with lots of nap spots — doggy couch included!) I use baby gates and barriers to create calm zones or give dogs space when needed If I step out briefly, I can crate your pup if you prefer — or I can safely separate mine in the bedroom and give yours the run of the main space which I prefer. I rotate rest time so every pup gets solo downtime when needed — it’s always about keeping things calm and dog-centered We have a medium-large backyard (fully fenced, ), no cats or kids, and lots of cozy options for sleep and chill time. Whether your pup is a cuddlebug, a watcher, or a play-in-the-yard type, I’ll follow their lead and make sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for. The house is petite but between the yard and snuggle time it is perfect. It is the second floor unit of a duplex and I short term rent the bottom out so mostly have exclusive use to the yard. I am okay carrying any pups up the stairs up to 30 lbs to help their knees if they need a boast. I currently work fully remote and am home all day — your dog will never be alone for long stretches. My own pups are a huge part of my life (they probably eat better than I do), and I deeply believe dogs rely on us for reassurance, love, and care. I do everything I can to live up to that, every single day. During my break from Rover, I continued fostering — over 100 puppies in the last few years. At the time, I was still going into the office, which wasn’t ideal, but it was still better than them staying at risk in the shelter. That chapter taught me so much about different temperaments, special needs, and how to create an environment where dogs feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — even when it’s not their usual home. Safety and trust are everything in my home. I don’t take guest pups on walks — my neighborhood occasionally has loose dogs, and I’d rather eliminate that risk altogether. Instead, all outdoor time happens in my fully fenced backyard, and I’m always outside supervising. Two sides of the house are historic cemetery. The other side has three small old dogs. The one is 14 and they are cute just vocal but no threat. There is a full 6’ wooden fence between. Indoors, I keep the environment clean, calm, and free of hazards to help everyone feel safe and settled. I also regularly review the Red Cross Pet First Aid app to stay up to date on emergency protocols like choking or injury. Your pup’s comfort and safety are never left to chance — they’re at the center of everything I do.

About: I’ve always grown up around cats and dogs so I’m very familiar with both and all sorts of personalities. I watch my neighbors, friends, and families cats and dogs all the time when they’re out of town. I love being active and taking pups out for walks and learning about them and what makes your pets unique. I have 2 cats and a dog personally so I’m well versed in the everyday activities. I also love helping out by giving baths to pets because I know that’s not always a desirable task. I’m currently floating between jobs so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your animals and check in! I love hanging out with critters and making sure they feel loved! I love going on long walks with my pup so I’m sure your fur baby and I would get along great! I always try to mix play and cozy time so that my animals feel very comfortable and attended to. I have dealt with lots of different temperaments from pets and I have a very good relationship with everyone I’ve met!
About: My name is Alexis. I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I have plenty of time to play with your puppy! I currently work part-time and have a lot of free time on my hands for the summer. I have a fenced yard and one older dog aged 13 years named William he’s a schnauzer a family dog and is very friendly .
“We booked Nev last minute to drop in on our dogs, and I’m so happy we did! Nev even scheduled a meet and greet, taking time out of their day to make it happened. We are so happy with the care our puppies received.”

“I was able to enjoy my vacation because Mel was conscientious and dependable. He took great care of my two cats and sent pictures every day. He even cleaned up their messes! I appreciate his care and will be ready to book another time.”

“Madalyn was so great and communicative! Will definitely have her back for watching our older dog. She took great care of her and gave us updates on how she was doing!”

“Flor is absolutely the sweetest! Our picky fur babies opened up to her quickly! I reached out to Flor very short notice and the whole meet/greet and visit went far smoother than the day trip my husband and I had lol Thank you, Miss Flor!”

“Jessica was great with my 2 dogs while I was out of town, she was flexible and communicative with me! I really appreciate her help and the care and love she gave my dogs- she did drop in visits where she fed them, took them out for potty breaks and gave them some playtime. She also sent me cute photos of my dogs that reassured me they were happy and cared for! Thanks Jessica!”

“Alice was great with Mae! It isn’t always easy letting people in your house when your away but she followed instructions, sent plenty of updates and pictures and even came over to meet us face to face!”
“Desirae was professional and prompt in her two drop ins with my pup. Excellent communication and detail oriented. I look forward to utilizing her services in the future and highly recommend her to Rover users.”

Sunny is an amazing pet sitter who took wonderful care of my fur babies! From our very first meeting, I had a great impression of her, and it was clear how much she genuinely loves animals. She is warm, friendly, and was fantastic with my pets. Both pets are older, so I always worry about them getting stressed when I'm away, but that wasn’t the case at all with Sunny. They absolutely loved her—so much so that when I got home, my dog Luci was still looking for her! I returned to relaxed, happy pets, which says everything. While away, Sunny sent photos and updates, which I really appreciated. I’ve already booked her again for the next trip and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care. Thank you, Sunny, for the excellent communication and loving care! 🐾

I booked them last minute, and they were absolutely wonderful! They were incredibly sweet with my dogs and made me feel at ease right away. Communication was excellent they kept me updated and even sent a cute video of my pups playing in the yard. I could tell my dogs were happy. I would definitely book them again!
