“Elizabeth watched Maya for five days while we were away. Maya LOVED her time with Elizabeth. Elizabeth kept her on a walk/play/eat/sleep schedule and sent periodic pictures so we knew how everything was going. She also vacuumed and mopped before we got home, so there wasn’t dog hair everywhere. Because of Elizabeth, we got to truly enjoy some time away without having to worry about home. Thank you, Elizabeth, and I HIGHLY recommend her!”


“I alway am anxious when i have to leave my dog at home. Not this time. Deja was the absolute best. She kept us informed, sent pics, gave our pup lots of love, walks…. He was a lucky pup and so were we. Thank you so much Deja.”


“Marty was so kind and took wonderful care of my precious pup and house!! Everything was meticulously well kept while we were away for our wedding. Thank you so much Marty!!!!”


“Joey was wonderful. He met with us the day before for a Greet & Meet. He arrived promptly on both days and was very experienced & well-prepared to take care of our Senior. Joey was very detailed about Rufus's care plan and asked lots of good questions. He sent plenty of beautiful photos and updates during the day. Joey was able to use positive reinforcement (treats and positive praise) to wean him off his belly band. This was incredibly helpful as we have been able to continue without it.”


“I can’t begin to share how reliable and helpful Alicia was. This was a last minute house sitting for our pup and she was so helpful and kind. She’s walked her often and sent us pictures and even helped us take our trash out while we were out even though she didn’t have to. She’s a true gem and we cannot recommend her enough!”


“Good communication with Nikki, the house was neat & clean & Daisy well cared for with regular photos and updates. Only issue was our automatic lid opener on our trash can was somwehow not working properly when we returned.”


“Makaila did a great job house sitting for us while we were out of town. Her communication was wonderful right from the start of the booking. She connected very quickly with our animals. This was our first time using rover and she made us feel much more comfortable. Our animals were well taken care of. We would definitely hire Makaila again in the future when we go out of town. Thanks again, Makaila for giving our fur babies the love they needed while we were gone!”

About: Hi there! I would love to provide a clean and home-like environment for your pets. I have over 25 years of caring for all types of animals. Available for boarding dogs and cats, house sitting(I’m unable to accommodate staying overnights), and drop-ins! Your pets will feel right at home in my care with all the attention and love they deserve! I am super fun to be around and I'm very active so your pet won't be bored or ever feel alone. I live on an acre with lots of open space for walks and playtime. I am currently not working so my schedule is very flexible. Pet care is built into my daily routine—it’s a priority, not a task. From morning walks to evening feedings and playtime, I schedule my day around each pet’s individual needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide consistent, personalized care. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed—while keeping their environment clean, safe, and stress-free. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as they do with their own family.

“Maribeth and Enzo got along beautifully she is magic to him and we can tell he loves her too! Polite and professional! She did a drop in for us this time but we will hire her again in near future!”


“Bethany is an amazing sitter. She sat for my dog that was recovering from an injury and wearing a cone. She had to give her medicine and keep her comfortable. My dog is picky about who she feels comfortable with but she liked Bethany! She is also very conscientious, punctual, and just really nice! I highly recommend her and will use her again.”


“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”


“My dogs were excited to see us but not out of their minds. That means they were happy and content while we were gone. Everything went very well with the care of our dogs.”


“Everything seemed to have gone well. Whitney met us in person before sitting for Marlin and came again the day prior to make sure she had all the information needed and to get a lay of the land. She sent photos of marlin. Although we did not set expectations prior, in the future we would like more frequent updates. We would hire her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and even bunnies! I’ve taken care of young animals and senior pets. From calm to rowdy and energetic, I’m always here for the experience! I love animals of all kind, and I am excited to take care of your pets next! I’m pretty much available whenever I’m needed. I’m currently only working part time, so I have plenty of time to hang with your pets!! I’m also available for ANY holidays. When caring for your pet in your home, I can adjust to any schedule/routine and follow it exactly. Pets can get stressed if their routine changes, so I’m just here to ensure their time away from you is as comfortable and easy (and fun) as possible. When caring for a pet in my home, I have a big backyard to run and play on a quiet street. I do have a couple cats so as long as your baby is okay with cats, they’re okay with it too!

“This was Destiny's first time with our spoiled Shih-Tzu. She left me updates all day long, sent pics, was very honest about Bella's behavior, walks, etc. Will definitely keep using her. She is very responsive and knowledgeable.”


“Vicki is a God send! Reliable, responsible, courteous and absolutely wonderful with my two dogs. I have utilized Vicki for both drop in visits and overnight stays, which have ranged from weekend stays to full week stays. Vicki is great with open communication and provides regular updates, including photos. She is also very flexible with her schedule and answers reservation requests within 24 hours. I would highly recommend this pet sitter! A+++”


“Amena did a great job watching my big dog Petey on short notice! She sent me lots of updates and photos, and left the apartment very neat and tidy. I can tell she really loves animals and wouldn't hesitate to ask her to pet-sit for us again.”


“Calli did great with my dogs. One is a very recent rescue and we aren't sure of his background. He's quite apprehensive and has been a little nippy. She was super communicative prior to, during and after she watched our dogs. She also came twice to assure fit prior to us leaving since our rescue was not super receptive to meeting someone new. I definitely recommend Calli.”

Sage C.
“I have had Sage take care of my dog, Frank, several times now, and she has always proven herself to be dependable and caring. I'm to understand that Frank gets walked more while under Sage's care than I can walk him myself, so I know that he is getting lots of attention while I am away. I recommend her for watching anyone's pets while they are away from home.”
