“We are so grateful to Gwin for taking fabulous care of our cat, Max, when we had to go out of town unexpectedly. She is a very caring and meticulous caretaker. Highly recommend!”
“Alexa took AMAZING care of our two cats. She was incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and easy to work with. She sent us great updates and pictures. This was our first time using Rover so we weren't quite sure what to expect. As soon as we met Alexa, we felt very comfortable leaving our cats in her care. We highly recommend Alexa and look forward to working with her again!”
“Wen is a fantastic pet sitter. Very friendly and on time. Shes really great with Pepsi, took time with her and I felt very safe knowing she was looking out for her while I was away.”
“Philsung has been great since day 1! He ensures that he meets all expectations when he is caring for your dog! He makes it a point to bond with your dog and form a solid relationship. My dog is always happy after a walk with him! Plus, he takes pictures of their time together, so you know exactly what happened! Highly recommend!!”
About: Dear parent(s), I thank you for considering me to look after your puppy. In the following short paragraphs you will read a little bit about me and my love for nature. SERVICE: I cater to those parents who need either a "once in a while" (but can be frequent) and/or a "last minute" sitting/walking care. I update my Rover availability based on my regular job's schedule to date to provide you a better service. ME: My love and passion for puppies began at a very young age. Growing up, I was blessed with having at least one dog in the household. During my high school years, I worked at a parrot shop located in Edgewater. There, I cared for baby parrots by handfeeding them their formula, which I prepared myself. I also kept a health chart on many baby parrots. Adults parrots were also present and cared for. My love and respect for animals has only increased through the years. Life has us all working so much that it takes us away from what we would rather do, spend time with our pets. Your dog will be cared for and looked after when you need to attend other matters. I have cared for dogs in the past, small and large (Saint Bernard the largest). I cannot pet sit in my home, but I can come to yours, though most of the time I will be out with him/her. So next time your puppy needs love and care when you need to be elsewhere, book me. I will make sure to fill that void your absence will leave, so the time he/she misses you will be less. Though I love dogs very much, I can be firm when needed. If there are any special requirements, please let me know. A. If your dog is shy, I will make sure he/she is not overwhelmed by other dogs or even humans. B. If he/she is hyper, to avoid kids being frightened. C. Do you prefer that your dog does not visit dog parks, or at least when they are not that busy? etc. I am currently a Real Estate Agent. My main working days are the weekends for open houses. This provides me with the freedom to care for your pet during the week, which is when most doggies are home-alone, but not anymore if I have a say in the matter. Building regulations and lack of space have prevented me from such joy. While I cannot pet sit at my home, I can take your dog outdoors. I try and stay physically active, so your dog will be walking and playing.
“Emily was amazing with our cats! She sent so many updates and pictures. She made sure to befriend both of them even though one is very shy and she made them so comfortable. We will definitely make sure to book her again because the girls loved their time with her!”
“Jadea, did great with my dog Jax!🐾 He took to her immediately and I can already see we’ll be requesting her services in the future. She followed all of my directions, is communicative and sends pictures 🐾”
“Sangah took wonderful care of our cat while we were out of town! We just needed drop-in visits to make sure Jojo had enough food and water, and Sangah was super reliable and sent nice updates every day! Definitely recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Stephanie was terrific with my cat Coco. I’m very happy to have her take care of my cat when we go on vacation. Very reliable and has a good sense with animals. Coco is not the friendliest kitty out there! I definitely will be rebooking with Stephanie each time we go away!”

About: I’ve had all sorts of pets since I was a little girl. Mostly dogs and cats in my adult years. I haven’t gotten a new dog since I had to say goodbye to my last furry friend. Now I want to have part time pets to love I’m a photographer and a design coordinator who works outside my home a few weeks a year and spends most time home editing photos, or playing with my two grandsons. I have a nice yard and a beautiful park across the street. I live in a quiet neighborhood with nice streets for walks. There is also a dog park close by.
“Sherrie was amazing! She took such great care of our pup during the drop in visit, lots of love, and attention to details. It’s clear she truly cares. Can’t wait to book her again! 🐾”
About: I raised my puppy from when she was only a couple months old. I stayed up with her when she needed someone and took her out every few hours, and she never had an accident in the Home. I work from home so I am pretty flexible with what your dog might need. I would be taking your dog outside every few hours as needed. We have a backyard that does not have a fence so your dog would be on a leash whenever we go outside to take breaks or play.
About: I've been raising cats and kittens for the last 23 years. I've done dog and cat check'in for neighbors over the last 15 years. I don't mind scooping litter and cleaning food areas. I'm a stay-at-home mom and have plenty of time to care for pets during the week while my child is at school or in the evenings. I prefer visits in the clients home. I am very cautious to make sure pets don't slip out the door unattended. I'm happy to take them for walks or stay in and play. Your pets deserve the best care while you are away and I'm happy to help!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since >1, always making sure they’re comfortable, fed, happy and most importantly safe and loved❤️ I understand what to look out for, following a schedule for over 12+ years with my own dog, and specific cues to communicate with them. I am home for more than three days (plus the weekend) due to my hybrid work schedule and able to go out for walks, potty breaks, and even the park when the weather calls for it. I live in an area where parks are all around me and have an access to a clean car. I just finished babysitting a friends dog which encouraged me to sign up on Rover after hearing great experiences with it. My personal chihuahua, Mimi, passed away due to a old age and I feel that babysitting/taking care of my neighborhood dogs is a great way for me to be surrounded by my favorite animals without investing all my time and resources into another dog of my own- at least until the future🤭

About: While I’ve never had a cat or dog (parental allergies), I’ve always loved them! My neighbors had cats and dogs so growing up I spent a lot of time around them and helped take care of them. I especially enjoy long walks :) I work from home two days a week so my schedule is pretty flexible. I would love to spend my free time with furry friends!

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life and currently have 2 family dogs (since they were puppies). I love taking care of them and enjoy doing fun basic training with them. I am available on weekdays during lunch hour or after 5pm for walks and drop ins. I can also do home stays at your place or mine (I work remote so if you need me for a couple of days, I can make it work)! If you give me instructions on what type of care (crating, basic training, playing, feeding, walking) I can help with that! I can care for them at my home or yours if that’s more comfortable for you!

Jennifer P.
“I'm pretty sure I was Jennifer's first client! She has been cat sitting for me when I go on various trips since 2016. :) Always lovely with my cats since they were kittens and genuinely so excited to receive them and spend time with/care for them. She's always sent me photos/videos throughout the trip of them (which is so sweet since I truly miss my babies when i'm away). She has a lovely and spacious home to accommodate for their comfort (with great outdoor space for the doggie parents). It's a 10/10 for me. :)”
Xiyan Z.
“I was so stressed about finding someone to care for my big dog, but Xiyan was an absolute lifesaver! She was very confident and extremely patient with him. I was originally worried because my dog was still under training at the time, and I thought he would give Xiyan a hard time. To my surprise, however, he behaved so well with her and absolutely loved her! I can't thank her enough for her incredible help.”
Jennifer K.
“Jennie is a loving soul who will look after your dog with the utmost care! She has experience with dogs (having her own and looking after mine!).”

Great communication & attentive care for our 1yr old kitty. Leta completed all the care items we requested; feeding, litter and play. She also updated us on how our cat was handling our first away trip. 10/10 recommend! - new cat owner, first time Rover user
Anne is a wonderful pet sitter and we’re so lucky to have found her! She truly has a gift with animals - my very skittish and shy cat was comfortable with her almost immediately - and she sends thoughtful updates that we look forward to whenever we are out of town. Thanks for everything!
Tatiana is so great with my dog, Penny. She is very patient and caring. Penny is nervous around new people and Tatiana takes the time to make sure Penny is comfortable around her. She goes above and beyond and plays fetch with Penny and takes her on walks when she isn’t going to the bathroom in the backyard. She also sends regular updates with plenty of pictures. I highly recommend Tatiana
Phil is such an incredibly kind and caring pet sitter! He was an amazing communicator and we looked forward to all of his pet updates and pictures. We had a pretty long instruction guide as we have four pets (including kittens), and he navigated everything with enthusiasm and ease. Definitely recommend Phil!!🐶🐱
