“Was extremely kind and diligent and took the best care of pepper. I gave Mia a bafflingly long list of random instructions and she followed them to a tee and handled everything well. So so trustworthy. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”

“Danielle was amazing! She took such good care of Lola, communicating with us everyday and sending us pictures. We felt very comfortable having her in our home and will absolutely be having her sit for us again!”

“This is the second time we’ve used Jordyn to watch our dog in our home and she did great with her! We can tell Polly is comfortable with her and loves having her stay here. Jordyn keeps us updated and leaves the house nice and clean. Will definitely use her again for future trips!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and my family has 3 other dogs! I’ve dog-sat for many years, both staying at homes and frequently checking in. I have a natural way of connecting with animals, and I love spending time with them! During the summer, I will have availability to walk dogs, let dogs out, and care for pets during the day and evenings on weekdays. June weekdays I am available after 12, and July weekdays I am available all day. Weekend availability is not consistent throughout the summer. I live with two dogs and two cats. I walk the dogs frequently, feed them breakfast and dinner, and keep their spaces clean and safe! I monitor pets as they chew on toys, and throw away toys that could be dangerous. Managing 4 pets is a handful, but I love it!
“Alyssa is simply amazing!! This is the 3rd time I’ve used her and she always does a phenomenal job. Traveling is always a bit stressful but knowing Alyssa is with my animals I am able to fully enjoy my trip. She is an outstanding house guest and really cares for my animals. I cannot recommend Alyssa enough!! Selfishly, I wish I could keep her to myself but that would truly be an injustice to all the other fur babies that are privileged enough to be in her care. If you want someone to take care of your animals and care for them as much as you do, go with Alyssa!!”


“Hannah was outstanding. Our schedule changed slightly at last moment and Hannah changed her schedule to accommodate and arrive to our home and be with Harley soon after we had to leave. Hannah kept us up to date and posted lots of photos of our beloved Dog Harley as well as all the walks and loving she provided. We came home to Happy puppy and very clean home. Hannah was awesome and we look forward to having her sit with our dog again in the future.”

“Eloise is amazing. I felt very confident from the start of our interactions to the meet and greet and the eventual stay that she would take great care of Opal. I was correct! She’s super thorough yet laidback, sent updates and was easy to communicate with!”

“This was my first experience of using Rover so I was a little unsure of how it all worked but Jennifer was such a blessing to find, her knowledge and experience of dogs and rescue is invaluable. Angus was walked and played with and entertained. I was relaxed and able to enjoy my weekend away without worry. They even had an adventure with a squirrel being chased into the house !!!! Jennifer was very capable and confident and calm and was able to get the squirrel out !! much to Angus' excitement. LOL Jennifer was punctual, and left my home just as I left it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs a petsitter.”

“Kylee is very knowledgeable and experienced with animals. She was flexible and accommodating with my pets' various needs (2 dogs and 2 cats, 2 of whom are senior with health conditions and special dietary and supplement needs). Everything was kept clean and she was communicative throughout. All of our pets were happy and relaxed upon our return. I highly recommend Kylee and her team!”

“Toby is super punctual, dependable, kind, and caring. Toby watched my 9 week old puppy twice, and he was very loving and patient. During the time he stayed at my house, he not only watched my puppy for several hours, but also played with him and fed him per my instructions. I highly recommend Toby to take care of any pets. Toby is a spectacular pet sitter and an amazing human being.”

“THANK YOU so much for taking such good care of Freya! We had Katelynn stay at our house for 5 days and we got so many updates about how Freya was doing. Will ABSOLUTELY continue to book Katelynn, especially since we have a major surgery coming up for Freya and there might be days where I cannot come home and check on her during work. Thanks again!”

“Michele did a great job watching our Livia while we were in CA. We were very comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. Michele took Livia for a morning walk daily and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She is highly recommended and we wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”

“Grace was excellent! She provided updates when needed and was very helpful and attentive to our requests and instructions. We came home to a happy, healthy puppy and a clean house. All we could ask for in a sitter! We will definitely be booking Grace again! Thanks, Grace!”

“Abigail was an amazing dog sitter for our little rescue dog. He can be a tricky one with lots of separation anxiety, but Abigail was such a great support and comfort to him. She was very communicative and tried everything she could to make sure he was happy and healthy. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful to have had her as our sitter!”

“Mark took great care of our aging rescue dog,Sunny. She requires medication and special care and Mark provided her with both. He stayed in our home without any issues. We highly recommended him and will not hesitate to use his services again.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Jim! He recently took care of my senior special-needs dog, and I was so impressed with his patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. Managing a pet with extra needs isn’t easy, but Jim handled everything with confidence and compassion. He took the time to understand my dog’s routines and special needs, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable and happy. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter—especially if your pet needs a little extra attention—Jim is absolutely the person you want. I highly recommend him!”

“Meg took great care of our fur baby, Sparky, for a week. Meg was quick to respond, laid back, caring, and easy to work with. I'm sure Sparky would love for her to dog sit again in the future!”

I couldn’t recommend Kaitlin enough!! She did a wonderful job house sitting and taking care of our pups for us while we were on vacation!! She was excellent at communicating with me the whole time and sent plenty of updates without me asking so I didn’t worry about anything while we were gone! When we got home the house looked great and the girls were happy so I have zero complaints!! We’ll definitely be looking to book Kaitlin again for more trips in the future! :)
