“Sarah was AMAZING! She kept us up to date on the daily with photos and how the pups were doing. The pups warmed up quick to her and we had Zero problems. Would rebook in a heartbeat.”

“Erin is simply the best. She is an animal lover through and through and a wonderful pet sitter. She treated our home as her own and took exceptional care of our two dogs and two cats. She even let our snoring husky sleep next to her. Erin is wonderful. Would absolutely book again.”

“Dannie was beyond exceptional. They made me and my dog feel well taken care of. It was my first time leaving Penny alone for the weekend and she may have had more fun with Dannie than she does with me. Will 💯 book with them again! Thank you Dannie!”

“April was absolutely phenomenal. She did a meet and greet very last minute and when we went to the hospital to have our baby, she was very flexible to make sure our dogs got the around the clock care so that we could focus on our family. The dogs are OBSESSED with April!!! She gave so many wonderful photo and text updates. We can’t wait to have April back so soon!!!!”

“Rachael was incredible! This was my first time using Rover for house sitting and Rachael made me feel really comfortable from the start. She kept me updated and spent more than enough time with my babies. My dogs loved her! Will definitely be using again :)”
“Madelyn was communicative, giving daily updates about River while I was gone. She took her on lots of walks and it seems my dog really got comfortable with her and cuddled a lot. I also came home to a clean house and she was respectful of my space while she was there! I am excited to use Madelyn again in the future.”

“Lizzie is absolutely incredible and we cannot wait to use her in the future! She treats your pups like her own. We also have a very nervous girl who usually does not let anyone but us touch her, but in less than 2 days she was asking Lizzie for pets!! Our flight got delayed 4 hours and Lizzie went above and beyond and stayed even later than we had scheduled. She gave incredible updates with videos of our pups and was an absolute joy to talk to! Highly highly recommend! Thank you so much for truly treating our dogs like your own and for all of your patience and extra kindness, Lizzie!!”

“Ziggy loved Shelby! She was wondering, very trustworthy and took wonderful care of our 13 week old baby! She sent loads of pictures and updates and did tons of fun stuff with him. Will definitely use her again!”
“Dawn was wonderful! She helped our family out after another sitter canceled last minute. She adjusted her schedule To meet us within a few short hours from our first contact. She then adjusted her schedule, which I am sure made it tricky, to help us in our time of need. And most importantly our pups loved her! ❤️”

“Casey was absolutely great! She took great care of our pups while we were away and was very respectful to our home. She sent us pictures and updates while we were away. We had no worries at all about our fur babies and we will definitely be using her again!”

“Brooke did a wonderful job taking care of my dog and home during a May 2026 trip to the beach. Her communications were outstanding and upon return, I could tell that my puppy had been well cared for. I would give Brooke the highest possible rating , 5 STARS for sure. Mitch G.”

“Claire was great with our two pups. She was very communicative and responsive and took great care of our dogs, including our senior who needed extra attention. We would definitely recommend her!”


“This was our first time using a sitter through Rover for our four month puppy! Mollie was on time, very friendly and did great with our puppy. We’d love to have her over again.”

“Melissa is amazing! She stayed with my pup who required extra attention due to his separation anxiety and he’s grieving the loss of his sister of all 11 years of his life. She provided lots of updates during her stay and lots of pictures. Walker looked happy and extremely well cared for in every single one. I was very anxious about leaving him since he required extra attention and is on some new meds but Melissa was wonderful and I never wondered for a second how things were going while I was away. I know we have a new friend who we will rebook with any time. Thank you, Melissa!!”

“Kathryn has been absolutely wonderful from the minute we first met on the meet and greet I felt very comfortable leaving my senior dog Millie in her very capable hands. A few days before I left on the trip, Millie experienced some medical issues and Kathryn went above and beyond to support me and Millie.. Catherine was extremely communicative, very diligent with administering medication and generally taking excellent care of Millie. Working with Catherine has been the best experience I have ever had on Rover 🐾🐾🐾 and I would not hesitate to recommend her… I will definitely be a repeat Customer - thank you, Kathryn millie and I will forever be grateful!”

About: I am a clinical social worker for children and young adults! My love for animals came from being raised in an animal loving home. I worked in a private vet right after college and have not only prior knowledge from my own family animals but hands on experience in the fields. About 5 years ago I adopted my cat Athena. Im the type of care giver who will make sure not only are your fur babies are loved and safe but that their owners have the sense of security that their babies are in good hands with frequent updates. I have been working with Rover since I was 18 years old! This was my job as a student that I very much loved! Now that it’s been 10 years in the business this job is a passion of mine that fulfills a purpose and only bring me more joy and happiness. I have a job that is flexible with my hours and allows me to work for my clients for hours that are needed. I book clients that I know I will be able to provide exact care they are expecting and asking for. Animals are like children, you always have to be vigilant. Every animal is different, needing specific care that is geared to them. I make sure my clients get attention, love and care.
“I would give a million stars if the option was available! Mada did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties during an extended work trip. She was extremely caring and communicative during my time away. My cats immediately took to her and showered her with tons of snuggles. Mada did an in-home stay and the house was spotless when I returned. She is kind, caring and conscientious - simply the best!”

April was absolutely wonderful, and we would happily book with her again. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she was reliable, professional, and easy to work with. What impressed us most was how quickly she built a connection with Lou. It was clear that she genuinely cares about dogs and made Lou feel comfortable right away. We felt completely confident leaving Lou in her care and would highly recommend April to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We would not hesitate to book with her again!

Brittany did outstanding ! We took a 9 day trip and Brittany touched base daily with texts, pictures and she was very sweet to my pups bc coming home they were so happy and well taken care of along with our home. If your looking for a trustworthy, loving , pet sitter whether it’s a trip out of town or just a drop in she very reliable .

Absolutely fabulous. Ali was such a find! She watched my house and corgi puppy for 12 days, and left my house in perfect condition. My neighbors all loved Ali, and my puppy especially was head-over-heels for her, was sad when she was finished. I really couldn’t be happier with Ali and the service she provided, I will definitely use her and Rover again. If you’re looking for someone to house sit/pet sit that you can trust, for longer time frames, then look no further, Ali is the answer.

Maddie was such a great sitter!! We were able to connect before the sit so she could meet the pups. She sent me daily updates and pics and Leo and London look like they had a great time. She was dependable and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend Maddie and I hope I travel soon so i can use her again. ❤️

Alexis has been house sitting my pup for a couple years now and it's always a great experience, she is great with him, communicates, and I always feel confident he (and my house) are well looked after. She brings her dog with her and the two pups always have a great time together, highly recommend her for dog/house sitting needs!

Abbi and her husband were fantastic. Abbi was communicative, responsible, and clearly loves animals. We got updates while we were away, which gave us real peace of mind. Our dog was happy and relaxed when we got home, and the house was spotless. We’re so grateful we found her and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!
