“Madeline is a very honest person. She followed instructions very well. She cared for Joey (my GSD) like her own sent daily updates and left my home spotless Reliable loving and professional I highly recommend her to anyone needing a trusted pet sitter. I plan to hire her again! 💙”
“Su took great care of my senior dog. She provided regular updates, asked questions when not sure and patiently took him on walks. She left my house in the same shape I left it in. When I got home my dog did not complain one bit which is a first for him :).”
“We are so grateful to have found Mai! She takes such great care of our dogs and home every time we’re away. Our dogs absolutely love her, and it gives us peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Mai follows all our instructions carefully, asks for clarification when needed, and keeps us updated throughout her stay. Plus, she always leaves the house spotless! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and caring dog sitter.”
“Amy is the best dog sitter we could have asked for. I pride myself on how much I take my dogs on adventures but Amy even surpassed what I do for my own dog! Amy took my dog on numerous wonderful adventures while sending me amazing pictures from their adventures. When Amy left she left a gorgeous hand drawn picture of our dog. I recommend Amy to anyone with a pet that they like and want to leave in good hands. 5 stars. A+ dog sitting! Will hire again!”
“Great communicator, kept great care of my duo and kept me well informed. Kept to their walking schedule and provided much love, attention and cuddles for my babies! Love working with Lauren!”
“Aurora was truly a gift having her dog-sit our precious girl Sadie. She was caring, responsive, gave many updates throughout the long weekend and made me feel at ease while I was away knowing that my dog was in good hands. Thank you Aurora. You are top on my list for future dog-sitting needs.”
“I needed help last minute to care for my dood. Jenny was able to come super last minute and take care of him. She went above and beyond to care for Drake. Taking him on multiple walks, playing with him and making sure he was fed on time. I would highly recommend her as a caretaker and would definitely request to have her help again. Thank you Jenny! 💖”
“Trina was awesome. On-time, very respectable, and my dog loved her immediately. I felt very assured my pet was in good care as she sent many photos of my dog throughout the booking. Will happily book with her again and would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”
About: Hello! I’m Olivia. I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with family dogs starting when I was in kindergarten. In the summer 2023, I adopted my own cat, which made me appreciate even more how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. I work part-time and am a college student, however I can always make time for lovely animals! Even with a busier schedule, I am still able to: * Overnight pet and house sit * Walk your dogs * Daily drop-in visits/check-ins * Keep up with feeding routines and fresh water * Litter box cleaning and basic cleanup * Give lots of attention, playtime, and companionship I am willing to discuss and bargain on prices, and we can discuss my availability further as well! Don’t be shy to message and let me know what you’re looking for. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I try to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to what they need. I also know how important communication is for pet parents, so I’m always happy to send updates and photos while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!
“Paulina was able to take a late request to watch my 2 cats. She interacts alot with my cats, which I appreciate, as one of my cats NEEDS lots of attention. They look forward to her visits with them.”
About: I've walked and fed both my sister's and friend's dogs for the last few years. Been going to the dog park interact w/different breeds of dogs to get used to each of there own quirks and personalities. I work full-time so I can take care of your dogs on the weekends. Some Holidays i should be free, just have to give me heads up. I am available on weekends after 11am I offer care and company for your dogs. I can be an "uncle" for them, when their parents are not home. Essentials such as food water, toys bathroom etc. always kept in mind!
“Taylor took fantastic care of our dogs and our home while we were away. The dogs were not always on their best behavior while Taylor was with them and she handled things like a pro. She took all three on multiple walks and made sure to give them all love and attention. We will book Taylor again in the future without hesitation.”
“Dana Chloe is a truly dedicated sitter who we love and trust. We are grateful to have her in our lives, to share in the joy and great care of our pets. We are truly blessed!”
“Francis was a fantastic sitter, providing high-attention care of both our pets and our house while we were away. He took careful notes, tracked medications, proved highly flexible with unexpected changes, and even managed to make quick friends with our elusive cats. Francis is the first sitter to interview us during the meet-and-greet, rather than the other way around. From the moment we met, we knew that Francis was a different kind of sitter. Francis is a caretaker. We strongly recommend Francis for your pet and house sitting needs.”
About: I have taken care of many pets throughout the years. And personally owned and cared for my pet children through out my llife. The pets I have owned are Pomeranian, chihuahua. And now a Golden doodle. I know that our pets are family and I will care for them as if they were my own ❤️ Im currently working part time and have plenty of free time to spend time with your pet. Available seven days a week. I would love the opportunity to care for your get children. I have a fenced yard. I own a very friendly dog and can easily create your dog if needed.My home is safe and I have plenty toys to keep your pet busy.
“Rose did an excellent job watching our two doodles. Both of them are a bit of a handful as one is a senior with incontinence issues (he needs regular outsides and diaper changes) while the other is younger and requests regular attention. Rose arrived on time, she made sure both dogs had regular breaks and she shared lots of pictures. We will definitely work with her again.”
About: I grew up with pets my whole life including 4 dogs, 9 cats, to small animals such as hamsters, fish, and turtles. I have a certification in dog training so if there's any issues with your pup, I can also help you with it during your dog's stay! Fur babies is my whole world and I've dedicated myself to them for my life. I love all of them and will provide them with the best care that I can! Can't wait to meet your furmaliy member! I work full time in a office so the only time I'm available will be weekends. Saturday and Sunday available all day and accept same day booking. Kiddie pool provided in the summer for dogs who loves water and wants to cool down. Dogs will have play time with my dog indoor/outdoor that's closely supervised.
About: You can rest assured your furry friend will be in capable hands! I’ve cared for two dogs of my own—one since puppy age to old age, and I currently have a 2yr old pup. I enjoy training dogs/believe this is a great way for bonding. I also enjoy being active and playing or taking dogs on walks. I work full time Monday through Friday, therefore weekends are the best if your dog requires round the clock care. If your dog just needs a morning walk and attention in the evening after I am off work, then I can look after them any day of the week. Personally, I like to keep dogs to their daily routine if possible. I do have a 2 year old dog who is very playful and loves to make new friends. Your furry friend would be coming along on our morning and evening walks and a part of before bed playtime!
“Natalie was so great!! She was very kind and flexible and even left the house clean. She sent me lots of updates of the dogs and followed all the instructions. This was my first time having someone I don’t know watch my dogs and she was fantastic!”
Lakes And Birds pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mila took great care of our dog while we were away for two weeks. She followed our instructions, asked good questions, answered our messages very quickly, and sent us the pictures of our dog every day! Mila loves animals and has plenty of experience dealing with them; she is responsible and reliable. Our dog loved Mila, and we hope that she would be able to stay with him again. We would highly recommend Mila to others!
I was very happy with Amy as Bella's dog sitter. Bella hides in her crate with strangers, but she was able to coax her out a little bit while she was here for the weekend. She was with Bella almost the entire time, which I think will be a help for Bella to get more at ease with her. I’ve already booked Amy for two more upcoming dog sitting events. She kept the house spotless and picked up my newspapers and took out my trash for trash day. All in all, I couldn’t have asked for more. She also sent me videos of Bella. It was helpful to me to see her doing fine. Thank you, Amy!
Shivani was a great caregiver for Oz. He had the "Ferris Bueller" week with Shivani. We can tell she really likes animals, and our dog adored her. She sent regular updates and photos, and Shivani made sure Oz had his regular routine. She was very communicative and thoughtful in her questions. We would highly recommend her!
Taylor did an amazing job caring for our 15-year-old dog, Jake. She was always on-time, responds quickly to messages, and kept us updated while we were away. Jake is slow to walk at his age, and Taylor was so patient and gentle with him every step of the way. We truly appreciate her kindness and reliability, and we would absolutely trust her with Jake again.
