“This was our first time using Laura through Rover, and we couldn’t be happier. I was a bit nervous at first, but she was fantastic with our dog, Brownie. You can tell she really cares Brownie did great with her! Communication was fast and easy; she always responded quickly to messages. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be rebooking her soon. Highly recommend!”

“James was very helpful with our pittie when we went away for the weekend. He visited twice a day, took her on a walk and sent pictures of her eating and walking outside. We will definitely use James again to look after Ivy! She loved him.”

“This is the second time Francesca has watched my cats and she is great with them! She provided great updates and pictures showing her giving them affection. One of my cats is a bit shy around strangers but she came and hung out with Francesca :-). I also noticed the effort she put into tidying up the mess they sometimes make and it was so appreciated!”

“Jasmine is AMAZING!!! We have 4 HIGH energy dogs with separation anxiety and we, ourselves, have mad anxiety about leaving them alone for any period of time. She was open to helping us scent-train our dogs to learn her smell before coming over. And she was also open to both meeting us and doing a trial visit before we booked out a longer trip. On the day of the actual visit, she was SO communicative + helpful the entire time. Plenty of pictures and the pups who are wary of strangers, LOVE HER. We are so relieved to have found the perfect dog sitter for our babies and can rest-easy knowing they will be in her care while we’re gone. Book her!!!”

“I was extremely nervous leaving Fig for the first time for a long weekend. Allison was absolutely amazing with updates and photos and helped quiet my worries about leaving him. Will absolutely be using her services again any time we need to leave for a long weekend!”
“Teresa was great! She kept me in the loop with my babies (kitties) while we were gone; she even washed their food bowls! I really appreciate that she was willing and able to help it with such short notice.”

“Kristin was great with my kitty’s. She made sure they got fed and one of the cats got meds. It was easy to book with her at the last minute when I could see not book anyone else. After getting home and greeting my cats I can tell they were not lonely while we are gone. I so appreciate her and my cats liked her being there. I would definitely book her again.”

About: I volunteered at Ana’s Angels for 3 years, I walked the dogs, made them look nice and presentable for people wanting to adopt them, I fed them, gave them water, and cleaned up their poop. I will be able to do the same, if not more for your dog or puppy. I am a big animal lover, and would love to help you out! I have school Tuesdays and Thursday and have work for a few hours on Monday and Wednesday’s. I am available to be able to stay over to check-in with the dogs and stay the night there. I will come to your home and take your pet and whatever they may need…if they need a walk, to be let out, fed/water, or even some love. I am very respectful and will follow whatever rules you oblige upon me, and will show your pet so much love and care!

“Alena is a great person. She always comes feed my yard cat and changes his water. I never worry about the food and she is always there and on time. Thank you Alena.”

About: I've had pets, including dogs, since childhood. My friends trust me with their doggies, of various breeds/ ages, and they refer me to others often. I work from home (remote), but will sometimes be out during the evening for a few hours. I am attentive! I can take your dog out for exercise & potty breaks. I am willing to work with your schedule! Lots of love & petting! Can be on the couch with me. Frequent walks if desired. Can visit dog parks. Good with feeding schedules. Bedding is helpful (and crate if necessary).
“Carissa was great with our Shiba Inc. Sasha is a stubborn dog that is picky about who she lets walk her and Carissa was definitely let into Sasha's circle. Will use Carissa again.”


“Wendy was wonderful. She communicated as requested and kept me fully updated. My cat is a senior with health issues and required special care.”

About: I have had pets for my entire adult life, starting with cats and then eventually dogs. I am highly energetic and would love to care for your pets as if they were my own! I am recently retired from teaching for 30 years so my time is very flexible! But don’t be misled, I am quite vibrant and energetic. I can easily care for your dogs in my own home or yours. I have ample room for crates, a great neighborhood to walk in and a dog run at my own home. I am also very happy to come to your home to sit/walk.
“Rebekah took great care of our two babies, Butters and Kramer. She provided constant updates for each of them individually and sent photos of both so I would know they are happy :)”

“Allison was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and clearly a true cat lover. She took such great care of my cat while I was away, sending me detailed daily updates and the best photos that really put my mind at ease. She was very diligent about cleaning the litter boxes & checking on the water fountain daily. She was even nice enough to grab my mail when I asked! It was clear my cats felt comfortable and safe with her—which says a lot, because they're usually pretty shy with people. I came home to a happy, fed kitty and my house just like I left it! I’ll 100% be booking with Allison again the next time I travel. If you’re looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive cat sitter on Rover, look no further—Allison is the one! 🐱💜”
