Alexis took such great care of our fur babies while we were gone for the weekend! She went above and beyond for our very high energy golden retriever puppy. I would definitely have her come stay again ❤️

Brooklyn was absolutely phenomenal with my two adult boxers. She came to my house and house sat for a few days. And I will absolutely be using her again. She was super communicative and sent photos of my pups along the way.

Deisha provided in home pet sitting for us while we were away on our family vacation. She provided excellent care for our fur babies and was extremely responsive even with us having limited cell and internet service while away! She sent updates and pics everytime we were able to connect with her while away. She did a great job of keeping up with our home as well! Highly recommend and will definitely be using her services again!

As someone who’s only ever left my dog with family or close friends, I was incredibly nervous using a sitter for the first time, but she completely exceeded every expectation. From the start, she put all my nerves at ease with her communication and kindness. Not only did I feel completely confident that my dog was safe and well cared for, but I also trusted her in my home, which says everything. She treated both with so much respect and care. I could tell my dog was happy, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyed being with her Highly, highly recommend!

I would recommend Sonia 100 times again! We were hesitant about having someone we didnt know in our home looking after our babies. Sonia was incredible. She came a week prior to our trip to meet us and the pups. She was professional, always punctual, she was loving to our pups and she was extremely communicative. Sending photos and updates all week long. Sonia really took her time loving on our pups and taking care of our home. If you're looking for a house/pet sitter. She is absolutely your girl!

I couldn't of been more grateful to find Chelsea to take care of Butter and Waffles like they were her own! She made sure to give consistent updates and follow their quirky needs/schedule that put my mind to ease. I could tell my kitties were really happy with her care! ☺️ She has such a genuine heart and made sure to leave my home better than when we left which was also SO nice to come back to after a long international flight. She really went above and beyond, I would definitely book with her again! ?

About: I have been in the anima care field for more than 10 years. I have personal experience in boarding, medical, and training as I have worked in a professional boarding facility that specialized in enrichment programs. I also have worked in vet clinics as an assistant for 7 years. I own a training business that specializes in obedience, puppy manners, and gun-dog training using force free and positive reinforcement methods. I make sure to offer structure and enrichment during your pups stay. I’m currently self employed and work from home. I make sure to follow the schedule of the owners as close as possible and make sure to offer daily structure and enrichment during the pets stay. I personally keep your pet in their own personal space to help them feel safe and comfortable. During potty times if they are comfortable they can interact with my personal dogs individually or altogether depending on their needs. While staying in my home they are kept on leash for any outside time to keep them safe as I don’t have a fenced in yard. Depending on the needs within a clients own home I will meet the current schedule and structure within the home.

About: Dogs are the most awesome pets to have. I love spending every free moment I have with mine Toby and Lance. They bring me happiness whenever I see them. They put me in check with what is important. I would have 20 of these little guys of my own if that would be possible. So instead I decided to become a pet-sitter and enjoy other people's pets. This also gives my dogs play time and social interaction with others. The greatest and most memorable times are the times spent with dogs. These guys deserve the best care and happiness we can provide them. So now Rover.com has provided me the opportunity to share my love for animals. You will not have any worries or doubts your will be in great hands of a responsible and attention to detail pet sitter.. Thanks for checking out my profile. I hope you book me soon for your pets!

About: I build relationships with the pets and owners. I pay attention to the small details, like routines, quirks, treat time, and belly rubs. I try my best to make all pets feel special and comfortable while their owners are away My schedule can vary week to week since my work isn’t always consistent, but I’d be happy to check in with you about your dates and see if it’s something I can commit to Since I have two dogs of my own, I usually offer pet care at the owner’s home. It tends to be less stressful for your pet and keeps things simpler on my end too

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated, long‑time animal care professional with over 5 years of experience as a veterinary technician and another 5 years working in animal rescue and adoption services. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including seniors, special‑needs pups, and dogs who require behavior‑savvy handling. My vet tech background means I’m comfortable with medication administration, monitoring health changes, basic first aid, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. My rescue work has given me deep experience with fearful, energetic, or previously underserved dogs, and I always meet each dog exactly where they are—patiently and positively. Above all, I’m an all‑around animal person who truly loves building trust and making sure your dog feels safe, understood, and well‑cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, or keeping a consistent routine, I’m here to give your pup the same level of care I’d want for my own. I currently work full time but will make your pets a priority. I can drop in any time in the morning/afternoon. Weekends are a breeze and I can do over nights. I can be flexible to any pet parents needs. We have a doggy park, or I can leash walk in my own yard. I have 3 very friendly, senior dogs. I can crate animals or leave them out. I can pretty much do it all in whatever environment if comfortable for clients.

Jami truly cares about your pet. I felt very comfortable leaving our big baby boy with her. She kept us updated with texts and photos throughout the week we were away. I love the fact that she’s knowledgeable because she used to work at a vet office. She is very sweet and calm and it’s obvious she loves animals. I will definitely be using her again!

I highly recommend Deisha! She took amazing care of my pups and my home while I was away for five days. She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dogs were happy and well cared for. When I returned home, my house was clean and my pups were relaxed and clearly loved while I was gone. Deisha is reliable, communicative, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

This was the first time ever using Rover, and Alexis was just amazing. We had anxiety over leaving our pets with someone that we did not know. Not only was she amazing with them, but she provided regular pictures and updates on our pets. We could not be more happy with her and grateful for her thoughtfulness.
