“I had the best experience with Lee. He watched my two dogs while I was away at a conference and took such great care of them! They went on walks, I got tons of pictures/videos and updates, and he even drew me a picture of my dogs! I’m always a little nervous to leave my dogs, especially with someone new, but Lee made it easy. I would absolutely recommend booking with Lee!!”
“Charlie did a wonderful job with my pets. They loved him and acted like they had known him for years! Charlie took notes, sent pictures, and did everything so I had not one concern about my silly golden and talkative cat . The most amazing thing is that he did this on a VERY short notice when I had to go out of town unexpectedly!! He was a true help to me! I would definitely call Charlie again!”
“Haley was great! Super communicative and sent lots of photos. Very respectful and flexible, you could tell she really cared about the pets. We didn’t worry at all leaving them in her care!”
“Christina did an AMAZING job housesitting and watching our two fur children. She provided detailed information (via rover app, written notes left) and never hesitated to ask questions if she had concerns or additional questions about our dogs. She went above and beyond making sure our house was running smoothly while away for 11 days: she brought in our mail/packages, placed our garbage cans out for pickup. We will definitely use Christina again and highly recommend her!”
“Anna stayed with my pets over the 4th of July weekend. She did an amazing job! My quirky golden retriever and friendly cat loved her. Anna, kept in touch and was very easy to reach. She is such a kind person. I felt great leaving my special buddies with her. Nancy Deford”
“Jillian is a professional! She is great with communicating updates and pictures. I trust her 100%. It is comforting to know Summer is in good hands when I travel.”
“Our original sitter canceled the day before our trip, and we were so relieved that Brittany was available last minute. She arranged a meet and greet the same day we reached out and started the booking the very next day. She took amazing care of our two dogs and two cats while we were away for three days and sent regular updates. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”
“What a great team! Mallory and Ian took care of our two shepherds for a week in our home. Daily pic updates were sent. Ian played ball and exercised our pups. We will definitely use them again.for future dog/home sitting.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the experience! Our dog walker, Kraig, was absolutely fantastic—super attentive to our pup, Rusty’s needs and incredibly reliable. Communication was top-notch; we always felt in the loop with updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins. It’s clear that Kraig genuinely cares and goes the extra mile. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to sit & walk their dog! Thanks Again, Kraig!”
“Fantastic! Scott was ann absolute lifesaver and helped me when I was In a crunch. He promptly responded to a last minute request . He toolk such good care of my pup Lily, who has separation anxiety. He walked Lily and made her feel comfortable and at ease. My pup was in great hands with Scott, who is an extremely flexible, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Scott!!”
“Ke'vin was very flexible with scheduling when we had to find someone quickly to leave town for a family emergency. With little notice, he came to our house for a first meeting and then started the next day for a overnight sitting service for five days. Our senior dog is always afraid of new people but Ke'vin sent videos of her and it's clear she warmed up quickly to him and really liked him. He gave her meds with no issue. I'm glad we found Ke'vin on Rover!”
“Noemi was great. Punctual. Sent updates with pictures. Dogs seemed calm and content when I came back from vacation. Will definitely book her again!”
“Eric was great and accommodated my last minute need for a dog sitter. He was professional, courteous and took great care of my pup while I was gone!”
“Hiwi is the best! She kept us up to date with how our 2 very needy dogs and cat were doing through out the day. She is very loving and a great communicator. Would use her again in a heartbeat!”
About: Raising puppies to adulthood was a wonderful experience, filled with the joy of watching them grow, training them, playing with them, and caring for them. I've shared my life with my dogs for about ten years. As a full-time student with a part-time job on campus, I would appreciate the opportunity to use this application occasionally during my free time, such as on holidays or weekends. A flexible schedule, rather than a fixed one, would be ideal for me. I would be delighted to care for your pets in the comfort of your home, providing them with the love, care, and respect they deserve. I will happily play with, train, and attend to their needs to the best of my ability.
“Kathryn is an amazing sitter she handled our Golden doodle with such care and love. We were away for a while but there was not one day that we did not receive an update and photos of our big baby. She is the best and will recommend her totally.She is dedicated and just an amazing sitter.”
About: I tend to have a special bond with animals, especially dogs and we both warmed up with each other very quickly! I'm also planning on turning my love for animals into a career with marine biology at The University of Tampa! My flexible schedule during the week and weekends lets me accommodate pet care needs whenever my customers need it, fitting very easily into my routine. I make sure to understand my customers' requirements and know about their pets' personalities, possible health issues, and any other details to provide the best experience for both my clients and their pets :)
About: I've worked for a dog walking company, wrangled ferrets, and outsmarted wily cats. With nearly a decade of pet sitting experience I'm ready for just about anything your furry friend can throw at me. I'm adept at problem solving and can meet your pet where they need me to be. I have experience administering medication and coaxing the anxious and stubborn out of their shells. I'm currently working odd jobs that mostly occur in the evenings. There is a fair amount of work around though and I can reschedule those in favor of pet sitting. I will follow any instructions clients give for how much freedom they want their pets to have. I usually like to keep them in sight or in an enclosed area like a fenced in yard when not out on a walk. I like playing and keeping them entertained or sitting quietly together if they're tired. It mostly depends on the energy levels and temperament of each individual.
“Foles was very communicative and took care of my boys without issue. She made me feel I could be completely disconnected without worrying about anything happening to my dog and my cat. Great job!”
