“Lauren was amazing!! She house sat for us for multiple days while we were out of state. She took great care of our house and even better care of our dogs. Our dogs have some special medical needs and Lauren went above and beyond to take care of them as if they were her own animals. I felt very comfortable my whole trip as Lauren would keep me updated and send so many amazing photos every day. I would 100% recommend Lauren to anyone who is looking for a reliable and kind person to housesit/animal sit for them. We will be using her services again in the future. Thank you again Lauren!!”


“Alexandra is excellent with my pups. She is super loving and treats them just like I do. She goes above and beyond to ensure your pups are well cared for and your home is safe. She is very respectful and caring to pets as well as people. She is an absolute joy to work with.”


“Oliver did a great job watching my pups. They are 14 and 6 months and they were well cared for. Our home was as well. We will definitely use him again. He did a great job communicating and keeping us informed.”


“Miranda was amazing!! We were initially very nervous to leave our fur babies, especially with one being a 200 lb English Mastiff! Miranda handled both of my dogs like it was nothing! We couldn’t be more grateful and we highly recommend using Miranda!”


About: Hi! I’m Abby, a lifelong animal lover with a special place in my heart for both cats and dogs. I currently share my home with two sweet rescue cats I adopted in 2020. I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life and understand how unique and particular they can be. In 2024, I spent six months volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I cared for cats of all ages and temperaments. I also have years of experience dog sitting for friends and family, and I grew up with a wonderful family dog who sparked my love for dogs. Whether we’re out for a walk or I’m stopping by to check in, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well taken care of. I’m available full time and happy to follow your routines, send plenty of photo updates, and keep your pets happy while you’re away. I can’t wait to hear from you! I’m leaving my current job in retail so I’m available full time to take care of your sweet kitty or pup! I’m available for walks, overnights and drop ins. I currently have two sweet cats I rescued in 2020 that are 4 and 5 who are my whole world. I will take care of your kitty/puppers just like they are my own.

“We LOVED having Jennifer care for our two doggos while away for a weekend. Our last river experience was not ideal and she quickly eased my nerves with how prepared she was just at the meet and greet! She sent updates throughout the weekend and rolled with the punches when our internet went out during her stay. We came home to two happy and tired dogs and she even left a goodie bag with treats. We won’t hesitate to ask Jennifer to care for our pets in the future!”


“If I could give 6 stars, I would. This was the first time I’ve left our kiddos with someone I didn’t know firsthand and I had a better experience than I’ve had with friends or family! I can’t tell you how nice it was to come home to happy animals and a clean house. She checked in just as much as I asked and was clearly very attentive. I would absolutely recommend Sydney and definitely hope to be able to book her again!”


“Elizabeth watched our dogs for an entire weekend while we were away in our house. She was very respectful to our house and treated our dogs with kindness and respect. Will definitely rebook.”


“Cheryl was very accommodating and was able to help us out in a last-minute jam she took care of the dogs like her own and was very nice and sent pictures and updates frequently we'll definitely use her again”


“This was our first time having Rachel stay with Lucy and she was absolutely wonderful. Very communicative and responsive, took great care of Lucy and sent me updates while I was gone. I will absolutely be requesting her again in the future and highly recommend her service!”



“We really appreciated all that Ryan did for our dog Penny. Worked with our schedule even when we had to change something, took special care for our elderly dog, and stayed in constant contact. Our dog certainly appreciated him!”


About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life, whether my family's, friends or neighbors. With all the responsibilities including dog walking, bathing, feeding and so on! Alongside this, I also over the last few years was able to gain professional dog care experience working at a local cat/dog boarding and daycare center, and was able to get to care for dogs of all sizes and breeds! I am a recent college graduate and retired student athlete exploring what my new routines will turn into in this new chapter of my life. Since I’m done with school and now moved back home, pet care is a daily in my routine with my own furbabies once again, which makes my pet care through Rover feel just as much a part of that routine. Having also been an athlete for so long, I’ve learned how to manage my time well and I’ve gained good practice in adapting to new or sudden changes in my own routine and still give the best care as I am able!! Back at home my family has a fenced in yard, and my dogs are currently crate less/don't use kennels aside from a new puppy my family just recently adopted. For a long time we did utilize kennels for all of our fur babies if we were out of the house for longer periods of time. All of my own dogs need to be on a leash when we take them out for walks in the neighborhood, adventures around town, or up at my family's cottage.

“Brigid was great! She sent pics everyday and was very easy to communicate with while we missed our babies. Our cats have very different personalities, so Brigid keeping us updated on how they were doing with her was awesome. Will use again!”

Molly is amazing! I’m so lucky to have found such a perfect cat sitter. Thank you Molly for going above and beyond changing the sheets, that was so thoughtful, and thanks for fulfilling the cat subQ fluids. I know how much you enjoy that lol. My home looked so neat and clean too, you’re the best!

Mariah was perfect! Even though we had to book at the last minute, she made time to come meet our pets at our home before the booking. Our dog is incredibly anxious and sometimes has a hard time meeting new people but she loved Mariah right away, which I think says so much about her ability to connect with animals and her experience with high anxiety dogs. She checked in during the stay and kept us up to date on how our two cats and dog were doing. She kept the house incredibly clean and our babies were so happy and healthy when we came home. Mariah even went so far as to bring in all our mail and packages. I would 100% recommend her and hope we can book with her again in the future.

Amanda did a wonderful job, Lacy is a very needy little girl she has anxiety and other issues and Amanda was excellent with her. I would totally recommend her for anyone that has dogs that are a little primadonna. Will definitely have her back to take care of my dog again.

Laura was great. She took wonderful care of our dogs while we were away. We got pictures daily. The dogs were walked and spent time playing outdoors. It was a better vacation knowing our two baby’s were safe and happy. Highly recommended Laura to take care of your special pet.

This was our first time utilizing Rover, and Nina spoiled us by providing above excellent service. Guido immediately took to Nina and adores her!! I was concerned hubby would have trouble with separation anxiety being away the first time, however, Nina sent regular pics and videos and erased an potential anxiety. We are deeply grateful for Nina. Thank you for providing the best possible care for Guido in our absence.❤️

Emma was great with my 6-month old Saint Bernard puppy. She was very respectful of my time and home; and sent periodic pictures of the pup to check in with me. She is very experienced and was a pleasure to work with. I was nervous about leaving my XL puppy with someone else and Emma eased all my worries. 10/10, would recommend, and will rebook!

Samantha is a wonderful person to have watch your pet. She is very hard working, loving and friendly. She took excellent care of our dog and kept in communication all evening both before showing up at our house on time and while we were out. Highly recommend and would like to use her again if she is available .
