“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”


“Max was great! She responded to my messages quickly and sent pictures of my dog. She informed me about everything that happened and how it went. She’s awesome”


“Oh my goodness! I cannot say anything better about Marco! He not only took amazing care our 3 dogs. He sent pictures, videos and kept us updated. Not only that, he respected our home, and went above and beyond with taking care of linens and laundry. He is amazing!”


“Madeline was absolutely amazing! Best dog sitter I’ve had since losing my last go-to person. She made me feel so safe and comfortable while I was away, which means everything. She went above and beyond for my poochie and treated her with such care and love. Truly grateful.”


“Chenelle was very good with our dog and would send us videos and pictures throughout the day, so we were constantly updated. We would use her again!”


“Maija was great with our 2 dogs! This was first time having her watch our dogs and we felt at ease while on vacation for a week. She sent us updates everyday and pictures throughout the week too so we knew everything was going okay. Even the doormen in our building were impressed with her & how she took care of our dogs. Would definitely recommend Maija!”


“Marlene took great care of my dogs while I was away. She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and updates. I know that she loved my dogs to pieces while I was away and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker or sitter. 🥰”


“Michael is the BEST. He took care of our house and our cats with patience, humor, respect, and care. He sent photos, funny info, and kept us updated on their antics. A couple of things went wrong in the house while we were away (nothing to do with Michael) and he handled them with complete grace. I felt at ease while we were away and would not hesitate to hire Michael again. And again!! We recommend him 200%!!”


“Asha was a LOVELY sitter!! she booked super last minute and was incredibly accommodating to my lovely baby boy. sent plenty of pictures and videos and was incredibly responsive with updates. will definitely book again!”


“Keslie watched my Sidney over Thanksgiving break, which was incredibly kind of her as she sacrificed time with her own family to help me out. Keslie provided picture updates, walks, and timely texts on Sidney’s progress - and overall relieved all the stress of leaving your pet loved one. I will undoubtedly be using Keslie for all my future rover bookings. I would highly recommend others to book her immediately—all positive feedback.”


About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to caring for pets! I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs since I was young and grew up with three of my own. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to person for dog walking, feeding, training, and light grooming for friends, family, and through fostering. I genuinely love bonding with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m excited to build my Rover community and would love the opportunity to give your pets the same love and attention I’d give my own! I’m in the office from M-F 9-5, so after 5 and on the weekends I’m flexible and able to give your pup lots of time, play, and companionship. Whether your dog needs regular walks, drop-in visits, or just a little extra company during the day, I’m here to help and always working around their routine to keep things familiar and low-stress. While I currently live in an apartment and foster animals, I’m not offering boarding at this time. But when I care for pets in your home, I follow their routine closely from feeding and walks to playtime and medication. I also treat your space with the same care and respect I’d expect in mine.

“Alexandra took good care of our fur baby, Bootsie, while we are away. She made sure that Bootsie gets his meds on time, provided the attention and care he needs. She keeps him company and gave him the treats occasionally. Alexandra also learned about administering the subcutaneous fluid injection on Bootsie daily - a new skill that should be added in her resume. Bootsie is grateful for Alexandra's company and for providing him the tender loving care in our absence.”


About: What sets me apart is my love for dogs, puppy socialization, and dedication to personalized, enriching activities that ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. My tailored approach combines exercise, and compassionate care, making me a dependable and innovative pet sitter. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine, including feeding, exercise, and affection. Weekly, I focus on monitoring health to ensure overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine to ensure comfort. I provide feeding, exercise, playtime, medication if needed, and companionship. I also maintain a clean environment, offer affection, and keep owners updated for peace of mind.

Thank you Keka !!!”


About: I've owned dogs since I was 10 years old and had three (2 pitbull mixes and 1 doberman) while being teenager. I assisted with feeding, toileting, walking, and bathing them. I am now 33 years old and I own two cats who I care for (feeding, entertaining, cleaning up after, etc.). Cats arguably have different needs :P One of my hobbies is to watch dog training videos and I don't know if I can put that to good use on your pets, but maybe you'll come back and find your pooch knows some new tricks (or manners)! At the moment, I am not working at a job, so my availability is quite open to the needs of my clients and their pets. I will not be able to bring your furbabies to my home, but given the tools at your home, I will be able to care for them to the best of my ability there! I will ensure your pets have the food and water they need, have a clean litterbox (or take them out), and ensure that the home is safe for the pet in question. I would do a sweep of the house and ensure nothing is out of place or has been messed with (by your pet) before continuing with the duties you've requested me for!

“Emily did an absolutely amazing job with our 10 month puppy! We were sent so many cute and thoughtful updates with photos and videos! I would HIGHLY recommend!!!!! Emily was definitely a star dog sitter!!!!!”


About: My current pet dog has been with me for over 12 years. I have trained several puppies and untrained adult dogs. I have fostered a few. Have long experience with long-term senior care with my parents' dog and my own dog. I sit for my friends' and sisters' dogs and also boarded them. I can handle any dog and am nurturing. I will look after your dog like they are my own. I work from home and take care of my own dog. I have a flexible schedule and can be available on short notice. Can travel if need be. My dog is very laid-back, well-trained, and patient, and walk her 3-4 times a day. She has a nice space in the house with plenty of access to water and a very comfortable bed. She's been trained to avoid certain areas of the house so she doesn't get into any trouble, such as the kitchen and bathroom. I am very diligent about following any medical care instructions. I can walk dogs with varying exercise needs, and am physically strong enough to handle strong pups. And it goes without saying that I'm very responsive to phone calls, texts, and emails if any updates are desired.

“Our first overnight with Paloma and couldn’t be happier. She kept in communication and didn’t hesitate to ask clarifying questions. Excited to have her come again.”


“Maybelline was exceptional. She took great care of our home and our corgis. She was very prompt, had great communication and shared lots of photos while we were away for the weekend. We will absolutely look to work with her again next time we are looking for a home/dog sitter while we are away.”

Over 6 pet parents in Leonia have booked house sitting
Leonia pet parents share their Rover experiences
Took amazing care of our house and our dog! Kept us updated everyday on how she was doing and when we came home the house was better than we left it!

She was great with our pup and communicated updates properly. She even let him out an extra time since our flight home was delayed!

Rachel was FANTASTIC with our 70+ pound Rottweiler/Husky with separation anxiety. She played and engaged with him when his energy was up, and let him lounge and rest when he needed it. We got frequent photo and text updates (and she takes really great doggy photos), and she even did an art project with him. He was happy and relaxed when we got home. Would definitely use her again for dog sitting in our home and might event try boarding him in her home when the need comes up. Thanks Rachel!

Denise is the best pet sitter you can ask for! She was super flexible with arrival timing and took amazing care of our dog. 10/10

Savannah did a great job with my cats, she did with detail what we agreed. She was great with communication and sent pictures for every meal and treat. I recommend Savannah for any pet sitting needs Thank you Savannah!

This was our second time booking Noelle to watch our cat and dog while we were away traveling. She is a wonderful sitter, very sweet with our pets, a great communicator, and considerate as a houseguest. There was a really bad heat wave while we were gone and she was thoughtful about the animals' well-being, proactively adjusting inside temperatures and outside walks to make sure they'd be comfortable. I look forward to working with her again!

Clifmon took great of my two cats. He was polite, professional, and communicated with photos while I was away. When I came home from my trip, my apartment was clean and my cats were relaxed, completely themselves, and totally fine! I highly recommend using him to take care of your pets!

aisha was an absolute dream! really flexible with last minute scheduling changes, sent the cutest pics and updates, and was really attentive to the needs of my kitty who’s been recovering from abdominal surgery. even though my cat was not feeling herself and hiding at first, she really warmed to aisha and was requesting more head scratches by the end of the visit. feeling so blessed to have found aisha and will definitely be booking again in the future!

Leta was great! Extremely responsive and communicative. It was wonderful to know our senior dog was being well cared for while we were away.

Victoria was so great! She took great care of all three of my pets while I was away, would absolutely hire her again!

Paloma is great! She is very responsible, clear communication and took great care of my pup! Thank you so much! :)

Antuanette did a great job taking care of my older dog Max and was very accommodating, thoughtful, and professional.

Ella is very professional, quick to respond and follows through on instructions. She was wonderful with my cat house sitting during the holiday weekend and left the apt super clean. I would highly recommend her.

Kathryn is amazing! She came to be with my cat, Mel, while I went out. Mel is on palliative care and I didn't want to leave him alone. Mel immediately liked her. She has a warm, caring and calm demeanor and I knew she was the perfect person to be with him, especially if an emergent situation came up. He had a great day yesterday. I would 110% contact her again. Many thanks to Kathryn!

Nathan was professional, considerate, and exceedingly good to my senior dog. He stayed in my apartment for 8 days while I traveled to another country. I received prompt and thorough updates with photo and video. He was very respectful of my home and even washed and changed the linens, but most importantly, my dog was relaxed and calm under his care. I give him the highest recommendation.

The dogs appeared to love their stay with Jalisa! She sent lots of photos and made everything smooth.

Mary was super easygoing and it seems that Valky vibed well with her. We look forward to booking Mary again in the future 😊 thanks again!

Really amazing job. Kept me in the know. Very kind, super sweet and traveled pretty far to take care of my puppy. Even tucked him into bed when it was time to leave. Will rebook if schedule allows!

Emily was fantastic with our cat Haze while we were away! She stayed in our home and kept it immaculate while giving our 17 year old cat Haze more TLC than either my partner or I can during the work week. Haze was pampered, fed and pet in her favorite spots around the house. Emily gave her medications on a routine basis and provided her with her heart medication injection once per day. While away, we received frequent updates on how Haze was doing with pictures that showed that she was happy, healthy and truly enjoying her time with Emily. We are so grateful for Emily taking care of Haze like she was her own and will definitely be rebooking with her for petsitting in the future!
