Top rated Kirkman South house sitters

“Christina is wonderful. She is a fantastic communicator and took great care of our fur-child Birdie over the holiday weekend. We appreciate her kindness and care, and will definitely be calling on her again the next time we travel.”



“Taylor took care of my dog for four days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She kept me updated every single day with multiple photos and detailed messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my dog was happy, loved, and so well cared for. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, kept my home clean, and was incredibly reliable. You can tell she truly loves animals—my dog absolutely adored her! I would 100% book Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”



“Sarah was great, she took care of my pitty, Spartacus and my four budgies. I was a little worried Spartacus would be too intimidating or rambunctious for her but she did great and sent pictures that eased my mind. I was also a bit concerned about having a stranger in my house but I trusted the other reviewers and did a meet and greet with Sarah. Everything went great and I'll be using her again. Thanks Sarah!”


“Austin was great with Obi, even though Obi is definitely not the easiest to deal with! Austin was patient and caring, and kept me updated the whole time. I could tell he really made an effort to make him feel comfortable. Definitely recommend! Thank you Austin for everything!”


“Nick was a life saver. We needed to travel last minute and was incredibly personable and attentive to our needs, even while planning over Thanksgiving weekend. He kept us updated with daily messages and pictures of pets, and felt more like a family friend helping us out rather than a stranger just hired on the app. I would highly recommend Nick for any pet care needs. Thanks Nick!!!!”


“Colleen is amazing! Not only did she take care of our dogs for two weeks while we were out of the country, she kept our house plants watered, and the house was nice and clean when we got back! We would love to have her take care of our two pups when we travel again! Thank you so much Colleen!”


“Susan, was not only so compassionate and but so knowledgeable about what my dog was going through after her surgery which she had a few days before our time with her. She immediately greeted my dogs and my daughter as if they were part of her family, they were all obsessed with her amazing energy (and of course so are we)! She made us feel so comfortable and gave us such a peace of mind when it was time to leave our dogs and visit Disney for the day! It just felt like we had known her for years and it was so refreshing not to worry about them all day at Disney! She took so much stress off of our plates and made the whole visit, so special! I will be asking for Susan as soon as we go back and visit Disney! Wished she lived near us, so we could have her watch our dogs for every trip! You will definitely not be disappointed if you have Susan come watch your animals! Thank you so much Susan for being you! We just love you so very much!!!”


“Sarah did a great job of taking care of our pups, who both have medical things going on, while we went on vacation. She went above and beyond with her care for them and her communication with us. 💕”


“Lynzee did an awesome job taking good care of our dog while we were away. She was attentive to his needs and took good care of our home while we were away.”


“J.C. watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat and was awesome! She sent us pictures of them everyday and they seemed very happy. This was the first time using this service and we will definately be having J.C. watch our babies again!”


“Alinna was great. She sent pics of Daphne multiple times a day and kept me updated on her eating and if she was okay. Alinna played fetch with her and kept her comfy cozy on the couch. Also, she went above and beyond and tidied up my apartment and washed the linens! Would book again!!”


“Ryeleigh stayed out our house for three nights to take care of our dog and cat. When we got home, they both seemed happy and were not stressed out at all that we had been gone. The house was clean and tidy and Ryeleigh even took the sheets off the bed and put them in the washer for us. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great house and pet sitter and we will definitely book her again!”


“Amazing! Devona stayed with my pup when i was away for a weekend. She kept me informed of everything, sent me photos daily, and was very quick to respond. I will definitely call her again for house sitting.”


“Lindsay was truly extraordinary! Our fur baby, Bailey, has separation anxiety, but she immediately felt comfortable with Lindsay and Oakley! Lindsay is such a kind-hearted person, and she will take care of your fur baby like her own. She also sends pictures and updates! Lindsay is the best sitter we have ever used, and she will be our go-to from here on out!”


“I can’t say enough about how wonderful Mariza is! We had Mariza take care of our two girls for a week and she was amazing with them; we had constant updates on how the girls were doing (she is a pro at pet photography!) and we could tell that the girls were so happy and comfortable. We also had some unexpected health issues come up with the dogs right before we left and she handled it with complete ease and professionalism. Leaving your fur babies is always hard but we will never hesitate to leave them with Mariza!”


“Jonathan did an incredible job again! He has become our “go-to” sitter for our cat and dog. Our animals are so excited to see him and I suspect a little let down when they see us return. Lol. Jonathan provides such wonderful care and attention, sends updates and pics regularly, and it makes taking a family trip so much more relaxing knowing our fur babies are in great care. Can’t recommend him enough!”


“Omg Danii was AMAZING! She was so kind and loving to our dogs and our dogs loved her from the beginning. She kept in touch with us and was quick to respond to messages, she sent pictures and updates, and kept our dogs happy and healthy. We will definitely be booking with her again!”



About: Although I listed my official "pet care experience" as 5 years, I have had at least 1 dog in my home my entire life. While in college, I joined a club partnered with Canine Companions which gave me the opportunity to puppy sit, and later on puppy raise, future service dogs for the organization. I currently have a 2 year old lab who I puppy raised from 2 months old for Canine Companions, but who was released from professional training and is now my pet. Being a former puppy raiser, I have experience with training and grooming. While most of my experience recently has been with puppies 2 months-2 years old, my family yorkie lived to about 18 years and I would take care of him/groom him every time I visited home. Many of my friends and family own a variety of dogs, so I have been around a variety of sizes, breeds, and ages. At the end of the day, I'm a fellow dog mom who knows leaving your baby home alone can be stressful and I would love to help you out! I am currently a Freelance Theatrical Sound Designer and Technician, so half of my active work schedule is remote. Being new to rover, I am starting out only offering weekdays, but have full availability for all 5 days! I also don't mind grooming if you can provide soap, towels, and let me know the best location to bath them in your house (please note that I am not a professional groomer, I just have experience from grooming my own dog. I will not proceed with any grooming if your dog appears very stress.) There may be times where my work schedule becomes more busy, but I would inform you in advance if it makes any changes to our schedule. I promise to follow any and all rules you have for your dog and your home. I know from personal experience that every dog parent is specific about how their dog is taken care of and I want to respect that. I also know that trusting someone in your home can be a scary thing and want to respect your privacy. While I have a dog of my own, I would not bring him to your residence or around your dog unless you brought it up/gave me permission. Even with permission though, I likely wouldn't bring my dog so that I can give yours the focus and attention you are hiring me for. That being said, I would hope for the trust and respect to work both ways. Please inform me of other people who may come to the house while I am there and of any triggers/fears your dog may have.

“Samanntha did an amazing job caring for our four cats. She checked on each of them, shared pictures and videos of them so we would know what they were up to, and even cleaned up the messes they made. Thank you for caring for our furry family members so we could travel without having to worry about them!”


About: Professional finance girly working from home, offering personalized puppy training, senior dog care, and plenty of cuddles. Farmers markets, outdoor dining, and lots of love! Doggy Day Care Hours Drop off: 7 AM to 9 AM Pick up: 4 PM to 6 PM Drop-in Visits: Monday to Friday: after 5 PM. Saturday to Sunday: open availability As a work from home finance professional, pet care fits into my routine as naturally as my morning matcha, it's part of the flow and definitely the best part of my day! I’m usually working between 8 AM and 5 PM EST, which means your puppy has a built-in buddy all day long for walks, play breaks, and lots of cuddles between spreadsheets and meetings. I currently offer daycare drop-off between 7–9 AM and pick-up between 4–6 PM, which works perfectly for fellow 9-to-5ers. But hey, life happens, and if you need a little wiggle room with timing (early meetings, dinner reservations, travel days), just let me know! I totally understand that schedules aren’t always cookie cutter, especially if you’re visiting from out of town and want your puppy to be safe and loved while you explore. Walks around the lake, treat breaks, toy time, and plenty of cozy lounging are all part of the daily lineup. Your dog isn’t just fitting into my routine, I adjust to theirs, so they feel comfy, secure, and totally adored every step of the way. Caring for pets in my home is like running a cozy little doggy retreat with extra love, belly rubs, and walkies! I live in a quiet, gated community with a manned security guard, so safety is top tier from the moment your puppy arrives. There are no other pets in my home, which means your puppy gets to be the main character, no sharing snuggles or toys here! Since I work from home, I’m always around to give your furry baby all the attention they deserve. Whether it's lounging beside me during Teams calls or enjoying spontaneous play breaks, your puppy will never feel lonely. I'm big on keeping routines meals on time, potty breaks like clockwork, and of course, long lakeside walks that feel like little nature adventures (complete with squirrel sightings and sniff stops galore). If I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own and I always make sure your pet feels relaxed and happy in their familiar space. Whether I’m fluffing their bed, giving them their meds, or just singing them silly songs while we hang out it’s all about keeping tails wagging and hearts happy.

Kirkman South pet parents share their Rover experiences
I can’t say enough about Nick. He is the standard of excellence. I know my pups are always safe and happy while with him. He is very communicative from his daily updates with witty commentary and pics to answering questions. By the end of his stay with our dogs, he begins to feel more like a friend. We’ve had him watch our dogs twice and will base future vacations off his availability because of how much we appreciate his services.

Taylor took such great care of our dog! We loved all the pictures she sent us. So grateful we found her and will definitely work with her again!

Sarah was absolutely amazing! She took care of our two rambunctious puppies and two older cats while house-sitting, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We left her a (very detailed!) schedule for the pups, and she followed it exactly—sending tons of photo updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was super easy, and Sarah went above and beyond to make sure our pets felt loved and our home was well cared for. We came back to happy animals and a calm home, which says everything. We will definitely be booking with her again and have already recommended her to our friends and family. Thank you, Sarah!

Adriana was so great with our puppies! They can be a handful, but she managed them perfectly. We would absolutely recommend Adriana to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter. Thank you Adriana!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Mariza is! We had Mariza take care of our two girls for a week and she was amazing with them; we had constant updates on how the girls were doing (she is a pro at pet photography!) and we could tell that the girls were so happy and comfortable. We also had some unexpected health issues come up with the dogs right before we left and she handled it with complete ease and professionalism.

Wonderful job Destiny! We worried about absolutely nothing while she was here! Dogs were well exercised and well taken care of!

You won’t regret using Delaney and I will use her again! She took great care of my dog and my dog was very happy while she was here. She left the kitchen clean and the house clean. She sent photos while I was on my vacation to see that my dog was relaxed and happy. She responds when you texted her.very responsive and did everything I asked. She’s great! Through. Submit it

Fantastic! Very attentive to our little old boi!! He came back to us so happy!! I would 10/10 hire again!! Thanks Lindsey!!

Taryn was absolutely incredible with our two boys. She was super attentive and very communicative. She sent us so many pictures of the boys which made us feel so at ease that they were being taken care of and loved on. Taryn truly allowed us to be able to enjoy our vacation worry-free! We will absolutely rebook with her in the future!
