About: I am very easy going I love cuddling walking and playing with the animals I am constantly petting and grooming and love giving them treats when deserved Its company, its takes away stress, fun, and loving. It's like having another family member in our household. The animal is like a human and is very enjoyable. I am a very honest, friendly, person. It takes a lot for me to get upset. I would take care of the animal like it was my own child.

“This is the first time we booked a House Sitting through Rover so we were a little nervous entrusting our two dogs and home to someone's care. From the time we met Elizabeth (Betsy), she alleviated our concerns. She is a gentle, kind and compassionate soul who immediately built rapport with us and our two beloved dogs. While we were away, Betsy, continually provided updates, including videos and pictures of our dogs. Betsy provided a caring and nurturing environment for our dogs, as well as took great care and respect of our home. I HIGHLY recommend Betsy to anyone who is considering a dog sitter. We will utilize Betsy for all of our dog care needs. She is the ultimate professional!”


“Rene was the absolute BEST! This was the first time we had to leave our pup alone and everything went so well. Our pup had the best time. Rene sent updates and was incredibly attentive. We will certainly be using her again without a doubt.”

“Eric and Julia did an amazing job with our rambunctious pups while we were bringing our baby girl home from the hospital. We get really anxious leaving our dogs but ended up having nothing to worry about! Not to mention, they were able to stay a last minute extra night when we had an extended stay at the hospital. Thank you so much guys!”


About: My family and I had a dog named Honey who we loved dearly, but sadly lost in a house fire around two years ago. I love dogs, and I really miss having one around. I thought Rover would be a great way to care for dogs and make some money on the side! I have experience as an emotional support assistant for students with mental disabilities, a role that demands great patience and understanding. I study Mechanical Engineering Asynchronously, and I work as a barista part-time. When I’m not working I’m usually studying, so I thought why not pack up my work and petsit while I study! My academic and professional lives require great attention to detail, so any sets of specific rules/schedules for any pet(s) under my care will be followed diligently!

“Jesse did a great job taking care of my dog and cat while we were away. He spent a good amount of time with my animals throughout the day and made sure to send timely updates. My cat was experiencing a health issue and required extra care during our time away and Jesse was very attentive and understanding. We felt very safe leaving our animals in his care. My animals all really enjoyed their time with him.”

About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. At home, I’m the proud owner of two cats and two dogs, and I’ve also spent time fostering as well as pet sitting for other families. This has given me a deep understanding of how to make animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved in any environment. ❤️ I fits perfectly in my daily routine since I already care for my own two cats and two dogs. I’m used to balancing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. Because of this, I can easily fit in visits, walks, or extended care for your pets. I keep a flexible schedule and can adjust to your pet’s specific routine—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime. My goal is to make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable at the times they need it most. I prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure the environment is secure and free from hazards. I follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner, including feeding, medication, and exercise routines. I also ensure pets feel comfortable and loved by giving them attention, playtime, and supervision at all times. I communicate regularly with pet owners to provide updates and ensure they trust that their pets are happy and safe.


“Ashley was amazing! I had an issue with our AC while I was away and she helped make sure my dogs were safe and the house was taken care of. She went above and beyond! I will definitely be rebooking again.”


“Annie was great my dogs loved her and I felt comfortable being away while she was with them ! I am definitely using her again in the future. She also sent cute pics of the dogs as well .”
