“Kaitie was the best sitter! I’m so happy we found her and booked her. We already have future trips booked with her. I’m an anxious dog mom with an anxious dog haha and Kaitie blew it out of the park. She was very communicative, stayed home with our pup a lot, walked him a ton, and sent so many photos. She also cleaned up the apartment after her stay. Highly recommend✨”


“Kristen was great! She was communicative while setting up a meet and greet and during her stay with Penny. Penny got lots of attention and exercise. I’ll definitely book her go watch my rescue dog again!”

“Heather was amazing with our dog, Messi. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures which we love. We will definitely reach out to Heather in the future and would recommend her to anyone else!”


“Elise was amazing. She helped us out on very short notice, was super easy to communicate with, and left our place spotless! Our animals loved hanging out with her, and she sent plenty of photo updates to make us feel comfortable, will absolutely be booking again!”


“Nikolas not only took great care of our girls, he left our home super neat and clean. He was very communicative in the lead up to his stay, and he provided timely updates during the weekend. We were very pleased with his service and care. Thanks Nikolas. Sadie and Gladys are ready for us to go out of town again so that they can have a visit with you.”


“Hannah was fantastic! She gave our boys lots of attention, followed all of our instructions, and updated us with photos on a regular basis. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to have her stay with our dogs again.”



“Pauline did such an amazing job with Otis! He’s just an 8 week old pup and she knew exactly how to take care of him and updated us on how he was doing during the night. I would definitely use her services again!”


“Kelly was absolutely amazing! She watched our dogs at our home for 10 days while we were out of the country on a vacation. It was a long trip but we felt so comfortable leaving her to take care of our doggies like they were her own. She kept in contact daily with updates and a good amount of pictures as well. She even surprised us when she sent us a photo of her walking both of our dogs at the same time and saying Yogi, our typically feisty one, was being very well behaved. Walking both of them together can be difficult for us so we were pleasantly surprised by this and knew the doggies must be very comfortable and happy with her. She also left the house just as clean as it was when she arrived. 10/10 recommended and will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”


“Shelby did a fabulous job taking care of my cat, Leo. He has a complicated feeding routine and she did a great job following my directions and making sure he ate. She came over for a meet and greet before the stay, and I really appreciate that! Shelby is fantastic, I highly recommend!”


“Lilly was great with Luna and sent frequent updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Luna was being well cared for and treated with so much love! I highly recommend Lilly and will definitely be hiring her again!”


“Evan is wonderful! I am so happy we found her! She communicates well, leaves the house just as she found it, and most importantly, our pup is obviously happy and well-taken care of when we get home. We have booked with Evan 2x now and we will continue to use her as long as she’s willing!”


“Grace is the sweetest and took amazing care of our two pups! One of our dogs, Railay, is a rescue and we were nervous how he’d handle a new sitter as he’s always been watched by family. Grace gave both pups so much love and it sounds like they had a blast with her! Can’t say enough great things about her!”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—especially dogs. I grew up with two pups in the house, so caring for them has always come naturally. Whether it was daily walks, feeding, or just giving them love and attention, it was part of my everyday life. I’ve also helped out neighbors with pet-sitting—including a very particular cat—so I’m no stranger to different personalities and needs. I’m gentle, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. Your pet’s comfort and happiness come first. Pet care is already part of my daily life! I have a dog of my own named Badu. Because I’m already in a rhythm with walks, feeding, and playtime, adding care for other pets fits naturally into my routine. I also have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to adapt to different needs—whether it’s early mornings, mid-day visits, or weekend care. Taking care of animals isn’t just a side hustle for me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space and the animal with full respect. I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding routines, walk times, or house rules—to keep your dog’s day as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages or photos so you know your pup is in good hands.

“We found Leanne when another dog sitter cancelled the week before a trip. Leanne was a good communicator and clearly experienced with dogs of all sizes. She bonded with our German shepherd right away. We came back to a clean house and a happy dog. We will absolutely use Leanne again!”


About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Growing up with dogs, volunteering at animal shelters, fostering puppies and kittens, and pet sitting for friends and family has given me years of hands-on experience. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own— with love, patience, and attention to their individual needs. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be hands-on and attentive throughout the day. I take long walks every morning and evening and love to have a companion by my side! When looking after your pet I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible (feeding times, walks, play, and rest) so they feel secure and at ease. I offer plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection, while also respecting any training or boundaries the owner has in place.

“Morgan has been an amazing sitter for my old pup, Rizz. Super communicative, attentive to quirks he’s developed in his later years, and extremely accommodating. We’ve already booked with her again!”



“Amber was great! She was responsible, communicative, friendly, and we trusted her completely. She followed the instructions we left, and our boys seemed happy and relaxed in the photos she sent. We would not hesitate recommending her or having her stay with our pups again.”

Loma Portal pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had such a great experience with Hannah housesitting our older, beloved dog Mojo! It's always challenging to have someone unknown stay in your house for the first time but Hannah was so punctual, friendly, attentive and competent that it was an easy decision. She sent loads of photos and updates which we really appreciated, and Mojo was a happy boy when we got home. We'll definitely reach out to Hannah again!

John took great care of my pup and my apartment. He sent photos twice a day and always responded quickly to my messages. He washed the sheets, took out the trash, and I'm pretty sure cleaned the fridge a bit. Went above and beyond to make sure I came home to happy pup and a clean house. I would definitely recommend him for house sitting your pets.

This was Malley’s second time watching our three dogs at our home, and it was a long stay! More than a week. Our dogs were loved and well cared for, she kept in constant communication and she was very flexible when we had a last minute flight change. We will definitely ask her to come back and watch our dogs again!
Susan was great with our pups! She checked in everyday with photos and left our home spotless when we were away. We had a medical issue with one of our dogs prior yo our trip and she was able to give him his medication without issue. I would definitely recommend Susan to anyone looking for dog sitting services! Thank you!

Clare is an amazing sitter! This was my second time booking her, and I couldn’t be happier. My little Luna absolutely adores her! Clare kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She left the house spotless and even washed the bedding so I wouldn’t have to deal with it after a long trip which is such a thoughtful touch. Thank you, Clare! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Elise was amazing. She helped us out on very short notice, was super easy to communicate with, and left our place spotless! Our animals loved hanging out with her, and she sent plenty of photo updates to make us feel comfortable, will absolutely be booking again!

Marina was amazing — easily the best sitter I’ve had! She took care of Louie while I was out of town, and he loved her instantly. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. She sent regular updates with photos and videos, took him on plenty of walks, played with him, made sure he was fed, and even gave him his meds without any issues. Would definitely book her again!

Kourtney is the best dog sitter! She is reliable, kind, caring, dedicated, and experienced, and our dog Finn loved hanging out with her! Kourtney met us prior to our trip to get acquainted and understand more about Finn, she gave us a questionnaire and asked important questions. During her stay she was very respectful of our home, and sent us daily photos and updates. She talked to Finn and kept him company, walked him, and took great care of him! We are so grateful for Kourtney and the wonderful, exceptional care she provided! Thank you so much, Kourtney!

Hannah was great! She stayed with our two pups for a quick one night stay while we were out of town for a concert. She was very communicative and easy to work with. We came home to two healthy, happy dogs and a clean house. We would definitely use her again!
