Rebecca is absolutely amazing. This was the first time I left Woodie with a sitter besides my son. He was nervous at first, but she came over several times to make sure he was comfortable. She knew everything to do to make him comfortable. He did perfectly when we went out. I was not worried at all because I knew she had it handled. I of course will be using her anytime I want to go out.

Annie was great with our two little pups and our senior cat. She was very tentative to their schedules and routines. Follows directions and requests as well. She was the first (of a few) that our older dog actually warmed up to, immediately. Communication was great, with updates constantly. We'll definitely have her house/pet sit again!

About: I'm Ashley and i'm 22 years old and have been around animals all my life! I grew up with a Golden Retriever and multiple cats! I got my first cat on my own around a year ago and she unexpectedly had 4 kittens. I made sure all of them were taken care of through any complication we had. I ended up keeping one of these wonderful kittens for myself! I have always been surrounded by dogs and cats and absolutely love them. I am looking into getting a dog for myself next year but want to make sure they would have enough space. I feel this is very important. I work full time during the week. I work from home Monday and Friday meaning I would be able to care for your pet throughout the day. On the days I am working in the office I will arrive home around 4:30 and are able to care for your pet anytime after! I'm currently working full time. I work two days from home, Monday and Friday and work Tuesday-Thursday in the office. I am able to stop by during my at home days, and always able to come after work around 4:30 any day of the week! I have two cats at home and will not be able to bring your animals into my home. I am more than willing to enter your home and make sure your animals are taken care of.

Oh my goodness!! Angie was the best! I have a very nervous dog and she was so patient and kind. I received updates of the dogs daily. She asked questions when she wasn’t sure and in the end my dogs were taken good care of. My house was also left in excellent condition! I would of course use her again! Having 2 dogs with different needs she did an outstanding job! She really is amazing and I appreciate all the time she spent getting to know my pups so they could be good for her.

This was our first booking with Rover and we can't say enough about how well-cared for our dog was. Claudine's communication was exceptional. She went above and beyond to try and manage some issues our pup has been having with paw-licking. It was clear that she was thoughtful and careful about her resposibilities with Patron and we would hire her again in a heartbeat.

About: I’ve had pit bulls as pets my whole life since I was born, so I’ve quickly learned how to take care of puppies and senior dogs. I am also on another app called wag where I’ve walked all kinds of dogs big and small. Helping people with their pets has always been something I love. I’m currently in college to be a forensic scientist! I’m unavailable Mondays/Wednesday's for school but you can always ask just in case! I am currently trying to make some extra money on the side for moving come November 1st Dogs in my home were never crated, however ive taken care of others dogs where they were to be put in a crate and it has never been an issue. Any rules you have for your pet is a rule I will follow as well as it is your home and your pet.

Gabriel was fantastic.. He made sure to have taken out and kept the house clean. He also got a smaller bag of food for the pups as the bags that were in the pantry ran out. The fish were fed daily, He took both dogs for walks daily too and shoveled out some snow from the deck to make a path for them to get to the yard and cleared out snow from the stairs from the deck too. I’m so happy with his work. Highly recommend

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of genuine care, attentiveness, and patience I bring to every pet I work with. I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I have experience with a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies who need consistent training and structure, to senior dogs requiring gentle handling, medication, and a slower pace. I’m confident in reading animal behavior and adjusting to their needs, whether that means helping a shy pet come out of their shell or keeping a high-energy pup mentally and physically stimulated. I’m also reliable, clean, and communicative with pet parents so you always feel at ease while you’re away. I’m currently home for the summer, which means I have lots of flexibility and time to dedicate to your furry friend! I absolutely love getting my steps in—so walks, playtime, and keeping your pet active are right up my alley. Whether it’s a game of tug-of-war, fetch, or working their brain with fun puzzles, I’m all about keeping pets happy, healthy, and mentally stimulated. What sets me apart is the energy and attentiveness I bring to every visit. I don’t just “watch” pets—I engage with them, connect with them, and make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether your pup needs structured walks or your senior dog needs a little extra care and patience, I’ve got them covered. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make it a priority to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet can thrive. In my home, I keep things clean, cozy, and pet-friendly. I stick to your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and even snuggle time. I make sure they feel like part of the family, with lots of attention, enrichment, and love throughout the day.

Shaylah was a lifesaver!!! My original dogsitter canceled less than 24 hours before we left for a long weekend and Shaylah answered the call to take care of the pups! She replied to my urgent plea within 5 minutes and changed her evening plans to drive to us that night to meet the dogs and get a tour if the house and all our specific needs. We have an elder dog that has to wear diapers and we make all the dog food and she needed beds as well. No problem for Shaylah!!! By the next morning we were on a plane and the dogs were so well cared for! Lots of pictures and updates which made me feel so much better, really can't say enough about her! She is a gem!!!!

Our dog was injured three days before a trip, and our regular kennel couldn’t accommodate the special care needed. We turned to Rover at the last minute and were lucky to find Tucker. Tucker responded right away and came by for a home visit the very next day, immediately putting us at ease. Tucker has a natural connection with animals and provided exceptional care for our two dogs and three cats. One of our dogs required medication and needed to stay calm to avoid further injury—Tucker handled everything perfectly. We received regular photo updates, and the house was left spotless. We were initially skeptical about using Rover, but after this experience, we now prefer it over traditional kennels. Highly recommend Tucker!
