“Ashley is awesome! She came to my home and took care of my brand new puppy, who has quite a demanding schedule. I was a super anxious new puppy mom and she put me at ease, kept me updated, and was super flexible and accommodating. Basil loved her and I felt like he was in great hands. Absolutely recommend!”
“Erika was very sweet and took great care of our old boy, Watson. He was well loved while we were away. Erika was also very respectful of our house. We will try to have her over again!”
About: Animals have always been my passion and your pet's well-being will always come first. I work in a very timely manner and am proactive to let you know about how your pet is doing! I am in the process of becoming a certified dog trainer and spend 30+ hours volunteering at the animal shelter. I have open availability for the summer and would love to help care for your furry companion! My schedule is Sunday - Saturday, with earliest appointments at 8AM and latest at 8PM. Caring for pets in your home requires trust and respect. I keep to the main community areas of your home - this generally includes the living room, kitchen, and backyard, as well as access to one bathroom. I will assume any other place as off-limits unless otherwise specified. Supplies such as leashes, collars, harnesses, treats, etc. that you provide will be returned back to their original location at the end of my stay. Keys can either be left in a hidden lock box or on my person - I take care to properly label and safely store any keys to ensure they are returned when needed.
“I can’t say enough good things about Tania. The dogs loved her, we loved her! She kept us up to date on our kids with texts and lots of pictures. She is very warm and friendly and we will have her back any time we travel. Thank you so much.”
“Georgina did a great job with Mikko and Kona! This was her first house sitting visit with them, and she quickly acclimated to their personalities! She was communicative, thorough with the instructions, and made sure they were comfortable and had a good time! Mikko and Kona warned up to her quickly, and she earned their trust fast. Look forward to hosting Georgina again in a few weeks!”
“We went outof town for the day and Lara watched our dog while we were away. While our dog is older, doesn't want to go outside much, and is afraid of people he does not know well, Lara was able to take him on several walks during the and kept us updated while we were out by sending us pictures of our dog throughout the day. Lara understands dogs well, and we felt confident having Lara care for our dog during the day. I would definitely recommend Lara to other friends who need dog care.”
“Alexis is the best! Stella and Riggy absolutely loved her! Riggins is toy-obsessed and loved to play and Alexis spent lots of time doing what Riggy love most - tug-o-war! Alexis sent pictures throughout her stay, which made us so happy!! She took the best care possible of our fur babies and our home! And our doggies seemed very relaxed and happy when we got home! Can’t wait to have Alexis back again!”
“Mia was amazing with Bear!!! She took such good care of him and he loved her. Was super communicative and I loved how excited she was to watch our pup. We’ll definitely reach out to Mia again :)”
“Asuka was incredible with our dog. She was communicative, responsive, and sent tons of pictures and videos of our dog while we were away. We would definitely use her again to care for our dog while we’re away. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you so much, Kylie, for taking care of our two pups! We truly appreciated the photos and updates on their activities. Our vacation was much more peaceful knowing they were happy! And we loved how extremely clean your home was. Thanks again for everything!”
“Veronica was a great dog / house sitter. She sent frequent updates and photos of the dogs which showed just how happy they were. She took great care of the house to the point that I wouldn't have known she was there if I hadn't had booked her through Rover. She was friendly, extremely responsive with booking, and our dogs were well taken care of by her.”
“Bailey is awesome! She sat with our pug and lab overnight. She was super responsive and sent photos and kept in touch while we were away. The dogs were happy. Great experience ?”
“Vicki did a phenomenal job taking care of our boy Mylo. Mylo had to get some emergency stitches the day before we were going out of town. Vicki handled his care perfectly, sent us regular updates and dealt with all the drama that comes with Mylo having to wear a cone. We cannot thank her enough and absolutely would recommend her to everyone else.”
“Our Monty has fallen in love, and we couldn’t be happier about it. Vikram is the perfect companion and caretaker for aging pets, and in our case a healing older pup. Every day getting pictures their adventures made us feel so relieved knowing he was with someone who truly loves (and understands) dogs.❤️❤️”
“Christine took perfect care of all 5 of our furbabies! We had her stay at our home with them and not only did she take great care, but respected our home and even cleaned up around the place for us. She provided great updates as well. Five animals is no small feat so I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
About: I've raised my current rescue dog from a puppy and trained her and raised her to be a gentle, loving, cuddly, dog. She's now 11 years old. I've also worked with Amanda at Animal Dog Rescue where I fostered dogs and arranged forever homes. My whole family is great with dogs, including my 18-year old twins who are happy to play with and walk your pet. I'm not an official trainer, but I've trained many dogs how to walk on a leash and basic commands like sit, stay, and come. We have a large house with a large backyard and we also have a kennel for overnight stays. I'm available for walks, doggy day care, overnight care, and more. I'm open for any questions you might have! I'm in my mid-50s and I'm ready for semi-retirement. I'm home all day, love to hike, and love dogs 🐕 I'm very dependable and responsible and will take great care of your pet. I have a fenced yard, a large-sized crate, and can give your pet full-time attention and care. I also have an elder dog who is very gentle and two older teenagers who also love dogs. When caring for your pet at your home, I can stop by multiple times during the day for potty breaks, meals, and play time.
“We highly recommend Michael B. if you're looking for a trusted, good soul to house- and dog-sit. Michael's meet-and-greet with our 2 Golden Retrievers was like old friends meeting up - a joyful connection - and that mattered to us, being a tad anxious about leaving on a trip without them. Michael kept in touch with us while we traveled; he sent fun updates, photos, and we exchanged follow up texts. He was prompt in all of our communications. This was our first time using Rover as a house- and dog-sitting service and we had an outstanding person in Michael B..”
About: I’m attentive and patient with your fur babies. I will spoil them rotten with grooming, loving kindness, plenty of walks, and meals (medication) on time. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your babies. I’m also available for weekends and odd hours if you work at night… I will care for your pets and follow your directions if they have medications or a need for an extra long walk around the neighborhood.
“I was anxious about using a house/pet sitter for the first time. Cristian was the perfect choice. We only had time for him to meet the girls once but they immediately liked him. He answered all my questions and helped ease my mind. I appreciated my twice daily updates. And we came home to happy, healthy dogs. You can't ask for much more than that I will definitely be reusing Christian in the future.”

Alisa F.
“Testimonial for Alisa Freeman - Exceptional Pet Sitter I am absolutely delighted to write this testimonial for Alisa Freeman, who has been an incredible cat sitter for my beloved feline companion. Having known Alisa for some time, I can confidently say that her passion for animals is truly remarkable and shines through in every interaction. Alisa has an impressive 15 years of experience in both dog and cat sitting, and it's clear that this isn't just a job for her – it's a calling. She possesses a deep, genuine love for animals, which is immediately evident in how they respond to her. My cat, who is reserved and does not like strangers absolutely adores Alisa and greets her with purrs and head rubs every time because she is gentle and does not force a connection. Beyond her innate connection with pets, Alisa is incredibly responsible and reliable. When she's caring for my cat, I have complete peace of mind knowing that my pet is in the safest hands. She ensures they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and, for dogs, lots of invigorating walks. She goes above and beyond to make sure the animals in her care are not just looked after, but truly happy and well-cared for. If you're looking for a pet sitter who combines extensive experience with a profound love for animals and unwavering responsibility, look no further than Alisa Freeman. Your furry friends will thank you!”
