“Alivia was amazing! She house sat/ dog sat for me for a week. She was easy to communicate with, sent many photos and updates, and was kind enough to take care of my house as well. I came home to a happy pup, and a house that was cleaner than i left it. Thank you Alivia!”

“Tabutha was wonderful with my animals and my home while I was gone. I came back to happy relaxed dogs and alpacas and a clean, tidy house. My foster dog has very high anxiety and she bonded with Tabutha in just a day or so. I will definitely ask Tabutha to house sit for me again.”


“Josh accepted our last minute request so that we could leave town for a funeral and even arrived at 4:30 am for our early flight. He took great care of our dogs and even checked to make sure things were good with our reptile. In addition he left the house as he found it and cleaned up after himself.”


“Tara was really wonderful! When I first met her I could tell she really loves dogs and would take very good care of our pups while we’re were gone for an overnight trip. So happy I found her and I look forward to trusting her with our house and pups again in the future.”

“Anna was amazing! Communication thought and care to my pups top tier. She is an animal lover. She is also incredibly respectful and clean. I appreciate someone who communicates regularly and promptly and this is definitely her mode! Thanks Anna for treating my pups like your own.”


About: I have about 10 years of experience in veterinary medicine. I worked in rescue for 2 years, then general practice for just over 6 years, and have been working in a mobile oncology clinic for the last 2 years. Any medications or special treatments needed are no problem for me. I have provided pet sitting services many times throughout the last 10 years and even prior to working in the veterinary industry I enjoyed helping people care for their animals while out of town for various lengths of time. I currently work 3 days a week in person in oncology and 1 day a week remote. My oncology days vary in hours but typically I start at 7:30am and am done most days before 4:00pm. I have no problem with crating or utilizing any special barriers or set up required to keep your pet safe in your house. I have a specific routine and set up that works for my dog in my own home, so I understand that every pet is a little different and unique.
“Silas went above and beyond for our pets! She watched our 4 dogs and 2 cats while we were out of the country. She was a great communicator the whole time. There was an issue with an appliance in the house while we were gone and she kept me updated and helped coordinate the repairs. She also sent photos and updates of the pets. We really appreciate that she treated our fur babies with love while we were away.”

“Alyssa stayed with my needy little poodle mix and also my son’s active golden retriever for a long weekend. Both dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we came on and the house was clean and tidy. I would totally have her come again!”

About: I have lots of experience with farm animals, as well as more exotic ones like large reptiles and snakes, to simple household pets! I’ve cared for animals that have special diets or need daily medication. My days are fairly flexible! I have three kids in school Monday through Friday, my husband is home weekends, so I’m up early and can work with your schedule. I take the safety of caring for your animal very seriously, all precautions will be handled as such. If you’ll need… -Leashing/Harness -Gates Locked -Kenneling -House Alarms set -Etc.
“This is the second time I’ve had Jordan take care of my animals. The dogs are well taken care of and act like they barely missed me. My house is usually cleaner when I get home than when I left!!”

“Ashlyn was very responsive and made herself available at the last minute to watch our dog and cat, plus a tortoise and 2 fish. In addition to caring for our sick dog, she also looked after our house, watered our plants and in general came to the rescue at the last minute for us.”

“Megan did an amazing job watching Baron for three days. She was caring, reliable, and kept me updated the whole time. Baron was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Megan and would absolutely book with her again!”

“Todd was great! I had him stay at my house with my cat, Tobias, while I was away for a few days and I loved getting the update photos. I'm not away from my cat for long periods of time so I know Tobias enjoyed having someone to hang out with. My cat will sometimes have stomach issues and Todd proved to be very caring and understanding when I would check in about it. My house looked the same way when I left it and would definitely book him again! Thank you again, Todd.”

About: I have been around dogs and all sorts of pets since I was a young child. My family & I have always had pets roaming around the house! A day hasn't gone by in my life where I haven't fed, bathed, or walked a dog! I currently don't work a job as I run a business out of my home. I am incredibly free any day of the week at anytime. I have a big yard (unfenced) & I am very aware of my surroundings so you can trust that I will have my eyes on everything!
About: I’m a behavior health tech my everyday life so I have a the patience needed to handle any pet with less than ideal behaviors. I’ve had a dog in the home for the past 30 years. Currently between jobs so this opens up my availability to open until I find another job as a behavior health tech. I love recurring walks. I will follow any and all requirements you have for your pets. People trust me with their children in a school setting. I’m fully confident in my abilities to keep your fur babies safe!
“Quessandra did an amazing job with Bella. I reached out to her super late at night and last minute and she came through in a pinch. She also sent lots of pics which eased my mind. I will be using her again and again to keep Bella company.”


“Lauren was amazing. Treated our luxury mountain home beautifully, and our animals were very well taken care of. Great communication. Highly recommended - we will be hiring her again and often!”

Lakebay pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alivia did an amazing job with my two pups over the 4 day weekend. She even got kisses from my nervous foster pup, Josie. Both dogs were tired and happy when I got home. Alivia sent photos every day to show me what a good time they were having and how contented my alpacas were. I will definitely book with Alivia again.

Alivia was fantastic! She followed all our instructions perfectly and sent adorable daily photo updates. Our cats loved her so much we were honestly a little worried they’d prefer her over us by the time we got back! We can’t recommend her enough and would definitely book again.

Alivia watched our cat Olive once so far and we would love to have her back! She house sat for two nights and maintained excellent communication throughout the stay, sending us pictures of Olive to let us know she was doing well. Alivia did a great job of keeping her litter box clean and ensuring the house was as clean as it was when we left (it was honestly cleaner than before we left). We had total peace of mind while on our trip knowing that Olive was well cared for. Highly recommend hiring Alivia as your pet-sitter!
