“Brandy was such a wonderful dog sitter for my sweet doggy Jax! She came into my home and was respectful, kind, and loving to my dog, walked him, sent photos of their activities and their cuddle times together. I felt my doggie was in great hands while I was away visiting family with all the care and love Brandy gave Jax. I would highly recommend Brandy for any dog care needs you may have.”

“Abigail did a great job of caring for our furry four! They loved her and were very comfortable right away. We really enjoyed having her and hope to have her sit for us again! 😊”

“Allison was great! She sent pictures and updated me throughout the stay. I’ll use again in the future. She was also very respectful of the house and it was in great shape when I got home.”

“She is so great very laid back and easygoing. Our dogs love her especially our little guy. No worries when she is here. She is always available and dependable we always come home to a happy house and everything is just how we left it.”
“Mariah is fantastic with our pets! She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, giving us peace of mind while we’re away. Mariah goes above and beyond, often taking our dog on longer walks which he loves. Her extensive experience with dogs is a huge plus. We highly recommend her services!”


About: Have been a long-time dog mom of a pitbull for many years. I have lots of experience with high energy and strong dogs who love walkies. Experience with elderly and ill pets as well.

I will respect your home during check-ins, make sure your pet is fed and watered and well exercised as per requests. Can provide extra photos if requested!
“She is amazing! She gave us peace of mind taking care of our seniors while we were at my daughter and son in laws wedding. She pays attention to detail and we appreciated that we knew they our pups were being well taken care of with her.”

“Trinity was absolutely fantastic! Great communication and my pup adored her. I did not worry at all while we were away (and I usually do!). Will definitely be using her in the future and highly recommend her to others. Thanks so much, Trinity!”

“Zackary was so awesome! We was super communicative and seemed to spend a lot of time at home with our two kitties boys. He asked questions when needed, checked in often and sent cute pictures! Our kitties were definitely happy when we got home and he was respectful of our space. Thank you so much Zack, the boys will be happy to see you in the future 😊”

About: I have had animals and cared for animals since I was young. On top of my personal animals, I have also dog and cat sat for family friends. I have also dealt with a diabetic cat and it’s shots. I am mostly just available on Fridays after 10:30 and on the weekends. I do sometimes have the availability for an afternoon (after 4) walk or drop in. I can care for your animals as you see fit in your home and follow your standards for your animals and home. If wanting some play time with another dog, I can also bring my own dog, who loves other dogs, for some play time.

“I can’t say enough good things about working with Phillip! He was kind, professional, and easy to trust with our two hyper and reactive doggos. Above all, it was such a relief to know that our fur babies were being cared for by someone who loved dogs as much as we do!!! We simply relaxed and enjoy our vacation! Thank you, Phillip!”

About: I’ve had my own dogs but I’ve also spent about 7 years as a foster mom to needy dogs and have had the pleasure of watching 14 dogs pass through my home on their way to a forever family . I’ve had dogs in heat , sick with heartworm and kennel cough . I currently have a 11 year old foster failure pit bull that is completely comfortable with me being gone for long stretches of time and all hours as well , he has access to the yard with doggy doors . I’m recently retired and am looking for new ways to occupy my time other than clocking in !! My dog is 11 and we typically are super low key and I have no commitment on a daily basis . At the present time I would be doing only in your home care , my dog is old and used to being an only dog , too late to change . I can easily do anytime or even overnights , he’s used to me being gone
“Eric did a house / dog sit at my home for about a week. He was an excellent communicator and gave me great updates on how my pup, Lucy, was doing. The house was in great shape when I returned and Lucy was clearly happy and well taken care of. Would highly recommend Eric for any rover needs. Thanks!”

“Ana did a great job with Willow. She pictures daily and reassured me Willow was good. Ana is professional and loving. Ana was also very flexible with me when I needed an extra night last minute. I will definitely be booking with Ana again!”

“This was my first time ever leaving my dogs not with family and Teresa was absolutely fantastic! She did a meet and greet with my pups before I booked and was so sweet I just knew they'd be in good hands while we were gone. Teresa then went above and beyond was flexible and handled things for me when my family that was coming to stay the second half of the week had their flight delayed. She stayed extra hours and made sure my dogs were well cared for! She was also great with communication and sent pics and texts assuring me all was well. I will definitely recommend her to family and friends!”

About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.
