“Paige was great with my cat. I saw from the photos she sent that my cat really warmed up to Paige. My cat usually does not like to be around people she doesn't know. I highly recommend Paige and the Rover.com service.”


“Karen was a wonderful choice for drop-in visits for my two cats when I left on an impromptu long weekend trip. She came over a day before my trip to meet my kitties. She was patient and understanding with my one cat who just wanted to hide - and after sitting patiently and quietly, he finally let her pet him. She explained the pet sitting / drop-in procedures, and is generally a kind and personable person overall. Each day I was gone, she left detailed drop-in notes and took TONS of photos to show that my two boys were doing well in my absence. When I returned, they both seemed to be in good spirits, well-fed, and well-watered. I highly recommend Karen as a cat-sitter!”


“This was the first time using Rover. Kara was wonderful and i appreciated that she stopped by to meet Lucy before beginning her drop in visits.”


“Taylor is awesome! Couple days before I traveled, she came to my house to meet me and my cat Zorro and we were talking for couple of hours. She is such a sweetheart During the week Taylor was checking on Zorro, she spoiled him just like I would, with lots of love, treats, cuddles and walks. I am so happy my baby was comfortable with Taylor. I can't recommend her enough and will definitely use her services again.”


“Jeremy was amazing! Really good with our large dog and great at communicating and putting us at ease. We'll hope to use him again next time help is needed!”


“Lori is AMAZING!! She was so patient with my "special/difficult" dog and really went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable and that I was comfortable leaving for the week! I would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking to have their fur baby cared for!”


“Peyton is amazing and went above and beyond for us while we were away for our first family vacation!! She was on point with communication when we or she had a question regarding the dogs, plus she did cleaning outside when we didn't ask her to. With the 6 dogs she had to watch, 5 out of 6 dogs (5 are my MIL dogs) loved her, except 1 of our dogs, Misty, was very stubborn and guarded she was giving us a play by play on how she kept on barking and 24hrs later Misty warmed up and earned Peyton's respect. We would love to have her again in the near future!! :)”


“Bridgette was absolutely amazing & accommodating for my crazy schedule/situation. She did a great job with my pet in terms of walking, feeding, and giving consistent updates - I will definitely book her again!!”


About: I have had dogs all my life, mostly German Shepards, the one I currently have I was there helping the mom to give birth! She is also very well trained! I know it’s hard to leave them so let me give you peace of mind! I am looking to help those who may be working mornings Monday -Friday. I would be available as early at 7 but no later than 5 I will keep your fury friend company, sending pictures to you to give reassurance and take care of any other needs your pet may have!

“Hillary did a great job taking care of my fur babies over the holidays! She was very accommodating and kind when my plans changed last minute. A great sitter!!”


“5 Stars all around. Chirstina has been dropping in and seeing my 3 month Old Golden Retriever Duke for an hour everyday for the past week now. She is amazing. Keeps me updated. Send me pictures, and also helps train him! Writes me a wonderful summary after every visit letting me know how his day was!! Anyone who is looking for a respectful person to trust in your home to watch your dog while you are away at work for a few hours. She’s your girl! I am pleased with everything she has done so far and will continue to keep on using her to take care of Duke while I am at work! Thank you Chirstina. Me and Duke appreciate you so much! You are absolutely incredible!”


About: I’ve always had a calm, patient way with dogs; even in high-stress situations from my time as a first responder. I’ve cared for senior dogs, given meds, and helped pups with special needs. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. As a veteran and homeschooling mom, my days are flexible and full of love. Caring for your pets fits right in. I’m available most days at any time and can easily adjust to your dog’s schedule, whether they need a walk, a potty break, or some extra affection. Your pet will feel like part of the family with me! I provide a pet-friendly environment in a great neighborhood just minutes from Mill Creek Park (3 min) and the dog park (10 min). Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and cared for like family. I follow any instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always give each pup the patience and love they deserve.

“A literal saving grace!!! Had a last minute flight cancellation and needed to find someone ASAP, she responded within 5 minutes and headed right over. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!!!! ♥️”


About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t taking care of animals! Whether it be while growing up or starting to dogsit/walk in high school, there was never a time a fur baby wasn’t relying on me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to help out with my friends and families animals, as well as volunteer for local animal shelters. I have experience with dogs of all ages and levels of care. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pet (I have used Rover myself when I go out of town) so I assure you I will provide the kind of care and attention to your pet that I would want given to my own! :) I’m currently working part time. My job offers flexible hours, so I have the opportunity to accommodate whatever schedule you and your pet require. :) I will happily go over what your pets routine is and abide by whatever you’re most comfortable with! If your dog is used to being walked at certain times, crated, etc. The well being and safety of your animal is my upmost concern so whatever you need me to do to guarantee that, is what I’ll do!

“Cara was on time and provided just what KC needed❤️”


“Hollis was very quick to respond and good natured. I feel safe knowing she’s punctual and experienced with my pups! My pups LOVE HER. Even on the first meeting they just loved spending time with her. She takes fun photos and really gets to know the dog!”


“Haley has been fantastic dropping in on my dog Cheddar for the last 2 consecutive months! She has been dropping in on cheddar for the last two years on and off when I need someone and will always rebook her! she shows up on time, is respectable of my home, and sends lots of pics and videos during the visit.”

Christine M.
“Chris watched my dog Caesar for two days and two nights in early June 2018. She is sweet, loving and such a dog person. She recently lost her dog and really enjoyed caring for my Golden Retriever, She took him for walks and gave him more one-on-one attention than he gets at home. In her home she has a huge bean bag circular "couch" for him to jump in, lots of dog toys (some he'd never seen before) and she was just wonderful with him. She came by last week and gave him a long walk. He loves her and we couldn't have been happier with her gentleness and her treatment of him.”
