“Pingping is the best sitter anyone could ever ask for!! She is so kind, attentive, flexible, and always follows instructions. I can’t imagine leaving my cats with anyone else - I highly recommend booking with her!”

“Lindsay (and her wonderful kids!) have been instrumental in helping me with my new puppy while I’m at work! He gets to play, socialize, and go potty! It can be scary booking someone you don’t know to come watch a beloved pet but Lindsay went out of her way to meet us before booking. We’ve been using her services now for quite a while, and I literally trust her with my dogs life :) I know Tango must love their visits because he always gets glowing reviews! Lindsay is quick to communicate and has been very reliable!”

About: I just love spending time and taking care of all animals. My pup is a senior now and can’t take the long walks and hikes we used to do all over the country. I would enjoy taking care of your loves when you may not necessarily have the time to be there with them! I work from home and my BFF Luca a ten year old male cattle dog and I have a consistent schedule, we go out for a walk every four hours. Sometimes just to sniff or stretch our legs! Very flexible. I can adjust to any potty schedule or needs as I work from home. I live a on the first floor and can access outside without the use of any stairs.
“Alex was great with my two cats! She was reliable and sent detailed updates and pictures twice daily. She gave them food, made sure the water fountain was full and scooped both litter boxes. She played with them, gave pets and scratches, and brushed them as well. She went above and beyond to get to know them and understand each cat. She was patient with my scardy cat Milo. It was such a relief to be able to feel at ease, knowing she was there caring for my cats. Both were happy and content when I got home. I highly recommend Alex and would definitely use her again to watch my two cats.”


About: I’ve always had a huge love and passion for all animals and have cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over five years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. My availability is flexible and depends on my work commitments. I only accept bookings when I can dedicate proper time and focus to each pet, ensuring consistent and attentive care. I’m very mindful of safety and structure when caring for pets. I follow routines, monitor behavior closely, and create a calm environment so pets feel secure and comfortable while in my care.
“Amanda provided great in-home care visits for my cat Bernie. Her visits were on time and her care was complete. I would be glad to hire Amanda for any type of animal care.”

“Tara checked in daily on our two cats while we were away for 8 days. She was a great communicator, always letting us know when she would be there and how the kitties were doing.”


About: Life long pet owner, foster and caregiver. I’ve trained puppies and provided end of life care for senior dogs. Very comfortable with large dogs and even angry cats because they need love too. Comfortable giving medication as well. I work from home with a very flexible daytime schedule. I am available until 5pm daily. Would be open to chatting about scheduling if more care was needed. I have a large fenced in yard, and a friendly cat. We have lots of toys and a little dog pool. I am clean and respectful when entering your home. I enjoy a long walk almost as much as our furry friends.

“We were so glad Katherine could come back to care for our sweet kitty. She is a great support when we are out of town! Always communicative and thorough with updates. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have helped foster and take care of over 160 animals since my family started fostering animals when I was 12 years old. As you can imagine, we have had a large variety of animal personalities come through and yet, I still love learning every pet’s new unique traits! I would be happy to give your pet some love and/or exercise until their favorite person (YOU, obviously) come home! I am available to come for a drop-in or dog walk on Saturdays and occasionally on Sundays and Mondays. Feel free to reach out for Saturday care and, if you’re curious about doing Sunday and/or Monday consecutively as well, we can chat, thank you! When I go to a clients home, whether it’s for the 1st time or the 30th, I will always see how the pet is doing. If they’re nervous I want to make sure they feel comfortable enough to trust me, especially if we’re going out of the house to walk! If you have a routine that your pet is used to, let me know and I will do my best to follow it. I want to cater to you and your pets needs :)

“From first contact to final visit, Kim made my first-time using Rover great. She helped me understand how to use Rover and did a great job caring for my 3 cats, including medication for one. I just wish my shy cats appreciated her as much as I did! Maybe next time.”

About: I will give them much love and attention, and keep them healthy and excited! I use to teach my dogs how to sit and stay, well I think anyone can do that but it's all about having fun with it! I'm looking for a little exciment and it will be a great experience with dogs since all they want to do is have lots of fun! I'm available weekends and nights and morning I tutor a first grader twice a week but anything than that I'm available to have fun with your dog. I had up to 3 dogs at one point and they were very hyper and outgoing so I loved taking them on walks and playing fetch in the yard. I loved animals since I was young so your pet would be great to take care of. I work in the medical field and work 7-3:30. Would love to walk after work, I'm usually free on the weekends! I would love to gain more experience outside mt home I have a fenced in backyard and keep my dogs close when going on walks and taking breaks when needed. Safety is my main priority!
About: Hi! I’m Carly! I’m currently in my last semester of my (second-career) nursing program and spending my summer doing something I genuinely love: spending time with dogs! After losing my sweet 13-year-old dog, I’ve really missed having dogs in my daily life. Rover feels like the perfect way to combine my love for animals, staying active, and helping busy pet parents feel confident their dogs are cared for. I’m dependable, responsible, attentive, and very focused on safety and wellbeing. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every dog with patience, affection, and respect for their unique personality and needs. I’m currently offering dog walks and drop-in visits, and I’d love to help give your dog exercise, companionship, attention, and lots of love while you’re away! I’m fairly flexible this summer since I’m currently in my last semester of nursing school and only working part time as a phlebotomist. I’m available most days and at a variety of times throughout the day for walks or drop-in visits. If your dog does best with a consistent routine or set day each week, I’m happy to accommodate that as well! Weekends can be a little more limited, but feel free to reach out and check my availability. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is safety, trust, and a calm environment for your dog. I respect your space and privacy and follow all instructions closely, including routines and feeding schedules. I make sure doors are securely locked, leashes are used properly, and your home is kept safe and as I found it. I focus on keeping your pet comfortable and low-stress while you’re away, paying attention to their needs and giving them plenty of care and reassurance. Above all, I treat your home and pet with respect and responsibility, just as I would expect for my own.
“Elizabeth was a fantastic sitter for our 19 year old cat. She was happy and content when we arrived home. She is usually anxiety ridden even when left for several hours. Elizabeth is a cat whisperer. Thank you so very much. Think Sienna misses her.”

About: Keep your pets out of the cold kennel and remaining in the comfort of their own home! I’ve been caring for other people’s animals since I was nine years old and over time that’s grown into a deep understanding of the bond between pets and their families. I don’t just watch pets, but step in as a calm, reliable presence so they can maintain their routine and sense of security while you’re away. I’m especially attentive to behavior and communication. Whether it’s managing doorbell triggers, easing separation anxiety, or reinforcing good habits, I work with your pet as an individual. My goal is always a smoother, more balanced experience for both you and your animal. I also have experience with pets who require a higher level of care, including those prone to seizures, pets with mobility challenges, and animals with heightened anxiety around storms or fireworks such as my own Australian Shepard. In those moments I prioritize patience and creating a comforting environment. When you book with me, you’re not just getting coverage, you’re getting consistency, daily communication, and peace of mind. I provide thoughtful updates and make sure you always know your pet is safe and cared for. I’ve been on Rover since 2018 and have built long term relationships with clients who trust me not just me with their pets, but as a friend. That level of bonding is something I aim to earn with every new client. My rates reflect the level of care, attention, and reliability I provide while keeping your pet out of the kennel and inside their own spaces. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet with the same attentiveness and respect you do, I’d be happy to connect and learn more about your needs. I take on pet appointments around providing smart home in house support and installation and do my best to accommodate your pet's needs and schedule. At your residence I try to keep your pets on their normal schedule when it comes to diet, exercise, bathroom breaks, and playtime. My "rental dogs" tend to get more walks with me than they do with their owners as I view it as my own gym time that the dogs also love. During overnight stays I am very respectful of client's homes and have been known to vacuum and do the guest room laundry prior to their return from vacation. I have a Toy Australian Sheppard named Vheissu (pronounced V-Sue) who lives with me half of the time, so if your dog comes over for daycare they may have a playmate.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I currently have 4 amazing dogs of my own, I foster and volunteer for a local rescue so I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, play time, or calm companionship, I’m here to give your dog all the care, love and attention they deserve while you are away. I believe in treating every dog like my own-with patience, kindness and fun. I provide regular updates and photos, so you'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I'll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and happy. Let's set up a meet & greet-l'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! I currently work full time so am available any day after 3 to bring your pup for a walk, feed them or bring them to my house to play with my dogs. I can make any night work for overnight care. I live in a dog-loving home with a secure, dog-friendly environment. My own dogs are well-socialized and friendly, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I am also available to come to your home to take care of your dog if preferred.
