“Lucas was great! He reached out every day we were gone and even helped water our plants. The house was in order when we returned and most importantly our dog seemed happy and well cared for. We will definitely be using Lucas again in the future.”

“Geneva was super communicative, considerate, and attentive to the needs of my dog Zelee! I appreciated how much thought and care she put into her stay with Zelee. I would absolutely recommend her services and would trust her to watch Zelee again.”

“Our two MEDIUM-SIZED dogs are used to staying with family, so I was very nervous on how well they would do with someone new, especially in our home. Brigit was fabulous, earning their trust quickly and handling their energy with ease! She took excellent care of our fur-babies and our home. You won't be disappointed hiring Brigit, but leave room in the schedule for us!”

“Aarti was an excellent dogsitter. She’s very calm and patient which was amazing for our two anxious pups. She gave regular updates so we were confident our girls were safe and cared for while we were away. Would highly recommend and look forward to her taking care of our pups again!”

“We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Lea. From the moment she stepped into our home, we knew our dogs were in caring and capable hands. Our energetic puppy and sweet older dog both instantly took to her, and it was clear they felt safe, loved, and genuinely happy in her care. Lea didn’t just meet our expectations — she far exceeded them. Her communication was thoughtful and consistent, keeping us updated with messages and photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, we came home to a house that was even cleaner than we left it, which speaks volumes about her attention to detail and respect for our space. She stepped in during a last-minute situation and handled everything with such calm, kindness, and professionalism. It’s rare to find someone so trustworthy and compassionate, and we are beyond grateful. I truly couldn’t recommend a better person to care for both your pets and your home.”

“Juan did a great job with our boy. We got updates and pictures and he was very responsive to any messages we sent while we were away. Took great care of the house as well!”

“Madelynne took the best care of our pup and cat while we were away. She was very communicative throughout her stay and sent lots of photos which we really appreciated. She went above and beyond for our sick dog by giving us constant updates and even taking her to the vet. We are so grateful for her time and the love she showed to our pets. We hope to have her every next time we are out of town.”

“Skyler helped us out last night and she was great. Our pups and house were take good care of. She was also great with communication and we will definitely ask her to stay again!”
“Jace did an excellent job pet sitting my two pups. They are a bit shy, but warmed up to her quickly. She sent plenty of updates and photos so I knew they were doing okay while I was traveling.”

“Rachel was a great sitter for Alfie. From early communication, through her stay at our place, and follow up afterwards, Rachel was responsive, communicative and caring for our little fur baby. She sent regular updates and photos while we were away, and left the house impeccably clean for when we came home. We will definitely be asking Rachel to take care of Alfie in the future and would recommend her to friends.”

About: I have worked and volunteered at an animal shelter and provided care and enrichment for all ages of dogs from babies to seniors. I have loved every dog I've ever met even the ones who have bitten me or are misunderstood. I have seen dogs grow up and I have seen dogs pass away. I have been the reason dogs have been adopted and given a second chance. I have even taken dogs off the streets and foster-failed (adopted) dogs who were in shelters. I have never loved something more and have only ever wanted to work with dogs. I truly can't think of anything I would rather do then be with a dog. I promise to love your dog as if it was mine. My available times throughout the week: Monday: 6am-9am and 2pm-8pm Tuesday: 6am-11am and 1pm-8pm Wednesday: 6am-9am and 11am-8pm Thursday: 6am-11am and 1pm-8pm Friday: 6am-9am and 11am-8pm Saturday: 6am-8pm Sunday: 6am-8pm I would prefer to only walk dogs and visit at owners home as well as house sit. I could not board them as I only live in an apartment that has restrictions.
“Thank you so much! Hossanna cared for our dog and cat while we were away for a week. We were so happy to receive photos and they were so well-cared-for!”

“Sheri stayed 4 days and nights with Delilah while I was on a work trip out of state. She was in constant communication with me, sending pictures and anecdotes. I had absolutely no worries knowing Sheri was handling things at home, giving Delilah all her love and attention. She left my place in perfect condition. I will definitely book with Sheri again!”

“Vincent was super nice about helping us out at the last minute when a family emergency changed the availability of our usual dog sitter. Our dog Shiloh liked him right away! He kept us updated and took great care of Shiloh and our house.”

“Marley was a fantastic dog sitter for our new foster dog, Bella! She sent regular updates with pictures and left a summary of her stay. Bella is a little shy since she is still getting used to being a pet, but she warmed up to Marley right away. I would highly recommend Marley to anyone needing a pet sitter and will be sure to contact her for any pet sitting needs I have in the future! Thanks Marley!!”

“Regi is so wonderful!!! It was my first time leaving Fred with a non-family member and she made it so easy!! She’s communicative, flexible and loves my sweet Fred. I already have her coming back next week!!! Thank you, Regi!!!”

“Colton was incredibly responsive from the moment of booking to updates and everything in between. He took care of our crazy pack and we are so thankful for such a great dog lover. His communication is top tier and it’s clear he wants to do whatever is best for our cherished family members. He was very accommodating to make our schedule work and spend the most time with our dogs. Looking forward to using his services again!”

“Nora was wonderful with our pups and at easing our anxieties leaving them for the weekend. She balanced keeping our high energy puppy entertained and our low energy almost-senior loved on and they just adored her. We could not have asked for a better fit!”

Jace was absolutely wonderful with our two 3 yo Shitzus, Louie and Gizmo! They loved here right away at the meet and greet! She followed all of our instructions and sent pics daily and updates on how they were doing. We are definitely going to call on her again and refer her to anyone we know who needs a great dog sitter! Thanks Jace from the bottom of our hearts 💕 for taking such good care of our two boys!!

Aarti was an excellent dogsitter. She’s very calm and patient which was amazing for our two anxious pups. She gave regular updates so we were confident our girls were safe and cared for while we were away. Would highly recommend and look forward to her taking care of our pups again!

My dogs and I loved having Lauren stay with them. She is observant and trustworthy. I can tell how they connect with her that they felt at home with her. My 2 large dogs are high energy and talkative. They have been difficult to manage for friends and family in the past. Lauren was able to communicate with them and set firm boundaries. I really appreciated having her stay, spend time with them, and know they were safe and loved with her.

Vincent did a wonderful job with my two cats. They are very skittish with strangers, but it was clear when I got home that they were happy and comfortable under Vincent's care. They are usually quite moody when we get back from a long trip away, but this time they were in good spirits which made the transition back home easier for all of us. I definitely recommend him and will use his services again! Thank you, Vincent! :)

Jade was a fantastic sitter for my two dogs. She followed my dogs medication requirements and all of the directions that I left her. I can tell she took good care of them because when I got home, they didn’t seem to have missed me all that much. She went above and beyond to leave my house clean for me when I got back.

Melanie was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! And I'm pretty sure I brought every challenge a pet sit can bring. I had to schedule last minute, I was leaving the country, and I have multiple dogs. She stayed overnight with them, and unfortunately we did have a scuffle between two of them on the second night that she handled masterfully. She got on the phone with me right away, sent me pictures, took great care of everyone, took the injured dog to my vet and followed up with great care of him until I could get home 2 days later. Her communication was excellent! The dogs were clearly well taken care of and in great spirits when I got home. This was my first experience using a Rover sitter and she exceeded my expectations by far! I feel incredibly lucky that Melanie was the sitter who got my crazy clan. She was kind and patient and wonderful about the entire experience.

When our dog got skunked in the backyard, Regina went to GREAT lengths to clean her up, and our house as well. She thought of everything, including potential medical indications which thankfully there were none of. All of this happening after midnight, too. I think our home smelled fresher when we got back than when we left. Amazing.
It's really an we exercise in trust to leave one's home and hound with others, and we very quickly realized that we had nothing to worry about with Andrea here, taking care of both our dog and home. Marti the dog was really well-cared for, and Andrea made sure she got her plethora of daily supplements, in addition to lots of love and play. Outstanding service and we are very grateful.
Allie provided outstanding care for my dogs while I was out of town. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. She was punctual, professional, and attentive to their individual needs. Throughout my time away, Allie kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind. My dogs looked happy and well-cared for in every update. When I returned home, everything was clean, and both dogs were relaxed and content — a true sign of excellent care. I highly recommend Allie to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. I look forward to working with her again in the future!
