“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely caring they are. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while we were away—which says everything. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a very happy pup and a tidy space, and it was obvious our dog had been treated like family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Pennie was everything my dogs and I needed! From the first contact to the very end she was responsive and great to work with. She was able to handle my overly excited dogs when she arrived, her calm demeanor helped them settle quickly. Pennie kept their normal schedule and my dogs were completely content that I was away, this made my very happy and settled my nerves about leaving them. Pennie will be my go to for now on.”

“Elizabeth was great to work with. She was on time, followed instructions perfectly and most importantly my pups had a great time with her and were well cared for. Thank you!🙏 we will be happy to have you back.”

“Abigail did a great job house sitting with Bo for a night and taking care of her “special needs”. Very responsive and communicative. Thanks again Abigail would love to have you back any time!”

About: Ive had 12 dogs and 3 cats throughout my whole life, and have taken care of them like they were my sibling.Puppies/Kittens, teenagers all the way to their senior years. I know how important it is to make sure your pets are being taken care properly of while you're not there. Im here to assure that. You may even come home to your puppy knowing a new trick. I am an unemployed college student with 1-2 classes a day. I have an open schedule to be attentive to your pets. Animals also boost my serotonin. I love to be outside or inside, so I am willing to accommodate to whatever your buddy needs. I have plenty of places to attentively let your pet play, walk, or relax with no interruptions. I communicate very well and often, if that is what you prefer with knack for following whatever rules are in place. I have an immense amount of patience, love and attentiveness within me helping me thrive under pressure and care for all beings.
“The kiddos enjoyed their time with her. On time, good communication, and followed instructions perfectly. It’s so nice to not have to worry when I am away. Thank you!”


About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet. I’ve been around both dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for them for family and friends. I currently have a puppy that I’ve raised since she was just 8 weeks old, so I understand the time, consistency, and attention young dogs need. From potty training routines and reinforcing basic commands to providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, I’m comfortable caring for puppies as well as adult pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very well into my daily schedule. I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate time to feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. Since I already care for my own puppy every day, I’m used to planning my schedule around a pet’s needs and making sure they receive consistent care. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to following each pet’s routine so they stay happy and comfortable while their owner is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of love and attention. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and any special routines their pet is used to. I also keep a close eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and healthy. My goal is to help pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely amazing experience! We could not have asked for a better dog/house sitter. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our home and fur baby were in such good hands. They went above and beyond in every way — not only taking incredible care of our dog, but also treating our home with so much care and attention. We got updates, photos, and could tell our pup was happy, loved, and spoiled while we were away. Coming home to a happy dog and a well cared-for house was the best feeling. Reliable, thoughtful, trustworthy, and truly exceptional. We will absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone without hesitation !”

“This is my first time using Rover and I chose Shawnee because of all her great reviews. The reviews were spot on and Shawnee did an excellent job. She sent me pictures and gave me an update on how Gracie and Meadow were doing. I will definitely being booking with Shawnee again.”

“Sunni did great taking care of our two medium-large dogs. The house was kept clean and our dogs were happy! This is our second time using Sunni without any issues! Definitely recommend!”

“Shelisha did a great job with our two large dogs. She was consistent with their schedule of food, treats, medication and play each day. Shelisha also communicated with us each day and sent photos and videos of our pets. On top of all that she also checked our mail and watered our plants. We highly recommend Shelisha as a dog sitter, as well as house sitter. We are grateful to have found her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - John Cox
Carly is an amazing dog sitter! She took the absolute best care of our dog, Diesel, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about him and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. Diesel absolutely loved her, and we feel so lucky to have found someone we trust so much with him. She also was great with communication and provided updates regularly, which was so appreciated. We cannot recommend Carly enough and would not hesitate to book her again!

It was my first time using Rover, and I was so nervous that my six cats would be too much to handle, especially with one being difficult to medicate. Lauren made the experience wonderful and completely put my anxiety at ease! She is kind, caring, and most importantly, incredibly patient. If you are looking for a pet sitter you can totally trust and rely on, Lauren has got you! Thank you, Lauren we look forward to booking you again, and our kitties loved their time with you!

Megan was wonderful! We had a great first meeting, communication was great she was fast at responding and friendly. She sent us pictures of our pets while she was watching them and they were all happy when we got back home. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and I’d use her again.

I feel so lucky to have found Lauren! She’s super friendly, the dogs LOVED her, and she left the house immaculate! A total win! She also communicated throughout the stay and sent picture updates. She made me feel at ease. I’ll be reaching out to her every time to care for the pups!

Shelisha did a great job with our two large dogs. She was consistent with their schedule of food, treats, medication and play each day. Shelisha also communicated with us each day and sent photos and videos of our pets. On top of all that she also checked our mail and watered our plants. We highly recommend Shelisha as a dog sitter, as well as house sitter. We are grateful to have found her.

Miranda was a godsend! I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for my puppy. From the beginning, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about making sure my puppy felt safe, loved, and comfortable while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I came home, my puppy was happy, well cared for, and clearly attached to Miranda — which says everything. Miranda paid attention to routines, gave lots of playtime and affection, and treated Lola like family. It’s such a relief knowing I have someone I can completely trust with my fur baby. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and attentive pet sitter!

Sia sat for our young dog at our home for a long vacation and she was wonderful! Teddy loved her, she provided regular updates and photos . She worked with him on playing fetch and taught him “Stop” while on walks. It was comforting to know our dog and our home were well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend anyone else to use Sia if she is available.

Kendra and her husband were amazing. I left them with my senior dog and puppy overnight and unfortunately my puppy had a huge mess in her crate overnight and they were so kind to clean it all up. They sent updates and pictures and were very kind and attentive! Communication was amazing. Thanks again, Kendra! I’m so sorry for the mess!!!
