“Cassandra was available at late notice due to a last minute cancellation by another sitter. She house sat for us for 2 nights, 3 days. She sent daily updates and sent photos 2 of the 3 days. She gave my pups lots of love and care as was evidenced by the snuggles they gave her as they quickly warmed up to her. Margo even felt comfortable sleeping with her both nights. The house was clean and in excellent condition when we returned.”
About: I've taken care of cats all throughout my life, including living with my roommates two cats. I also grew up taking care of an English Springer Spaniel. I would take car of them with walking, playing, feeding, and brushing them. I work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 3pm to 3am, so I am available most days of the week as well as early or late check-ins on the weekend! With the cats I live with now, I feed them in separate rooms since one cat can overeat the others food and end up vomiting it back. One gets plenty of pets, and the other prefers to be left alone most of the time. The more social one will also from time to time be let put into our shared hallway to walk outside the apartment. I have had experience with putting cats in carriers including while wearing harnesses.
“Lillian communicated with us throughout the time she was watching our dog!! She sent multiple updates and it is very clear that she cared for our dog very well!! Also the house was spotless when she left which was a huge plus !! We will for sure keep her in mind for our next trip!”
“We would use Stephanie again in a minute and highly recommend her! We had a last min cancellation for our original pet plans, and even though we were unable to give two days notice she made it work - truly grateful! She’s very personable and our pets were immediately comfortable with her. Our dog is a senior and requires extra care but Stephanie was a champ about it! She’s very upbeat and did a great job; I was not at all worried about our pets. ❤️ We will definitely use her again in the future- thank you so much!!!”
“Becky is a Doggy sitter SuperStar! She is extremely attentive to my fur babies. She keeps me regularly updated with pics and videos which makes me feel so secure when I am away. We just absolutely love Becky!!! She has a sincere love for pets, I am so thankful we found a responsible and friendly as Becky!”
“Tiffany was great! Our pets had never stayed with anyone except family and she agreed to do a meet and greet with us first to ease our minds. She took everything we said seriously and didn’t make us feel like crazy pet parents! Came back to very happy animals. Will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“i call julianna everytime i need a cat sitter. she is so amazing, so communicative, so lovely. my cats love her, the house is always clean, and she really goes out of her way.”
“Lindsay was so amazing. Dozer and Penny love when she comes to take care of them. Lindsay will always put your pet babies first and makes sure they are comfortable, loved, and well cared for!”
“Charlene was marvelous with Ralphie. She gives so much of herself to make sure he's happy and well cared for. She kept us up to date with photos, videos, and anecdotes of Ralphie's day. She left our house in better condition than she found it!”
About: My own 3 legged border collie keeps me on my toes. I've pet sat for friends and family over the years and im excited to expand to help other people! Im a work from home artist so I make my own schedule. Im available to help the 9-5ers for their peace if mind. Last minute bookings are ok too! Im extremely clean and punctual. I respect rules and schedules. Your pets safety and happiness is as important as my own pets. Im happy to take something off of your plate to make your day just s bit easier.
“Cailyn has been awesome while watching my pups this summer. She always sends pics and has responded quite quickly to inquires. Thank you Cailyn! I will continue to see if she is available to dog sit!”
About: I have cared for the pets of my friends and neighbors for years and can ensure that I am hardworking, reliable, and up for the job! I recently moved to Manchester, unfortunately, away form my daily dogs. I miss time with my furry friends and would love to care for yours! I’m currently available for sitting, walking, and in-home care for your dog! I’m excited to meet your beloved pets! I am available for several types of care for your dog or cat including walking, feeding, light grooming, and providing company while you are away!
“When we got home my two girls were very happy and my house was so clean you wouldn't even know Olivia was here! She sent lots of pictures of walks and took them all around the neighborhood, which is great for my two babies! Thank you again for a delightful experience!”
“Kirsten was wonderful. She was prompt and took great care of my dog Shotz. I appreciated the pictures and updates. Shotz seemed to like her as well. I would definitely have her dog sit again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have hands-on experience caring for them through family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic bathing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and always try to understand each pet’s personality so they feel comfortable and relaxed with me. I’m lucky enough to do pet care full-time, so your dog or cat will be my main priority all day long. Since I don't have a typical 9-5, I can basically be a 'stay-at-home pet parent' for your furry family member. My day usually starts early with a long walk and breakfast, followed by plenty of playtime and snuggles throughout the afternoon. I’m rarely away from the house for more than a quick errand, so your pet won't be left alone for long stretches. I really pride myself on keeping their routine exactly like it is when you’re home. I specialize in caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel most secure. I’m extremely respectful of your space and follow all house rules and safety protocols to the letter. Because I don’t have a fenced yard at my own place, I prefer to focus my energy on yours—ensuring doors are always locked and pets are never left unsupervised in unsecured areas. I prioritize high-quality one-on-one time, follow strict feeding and medication schedules, and love sending daily photo updates so you can see how much fun we’re having!

Melissa is fabulous! We have an anxious dog. She was caring and patient with him, administered medication when he needed it, kept us updated throughout our time away, and sent us plenty of pictures. Dobby was happy when we got home and not stressed out. We will definitely be having her back! Thank you Melissa!
We're so grateful that Stephanie could stay with our dog and cat while we were away. Our cat especially, has only been with us 9 months and was in shelters before that so we were worried she'd feel abandoned. Stephanie took excellent care of both of them and our home, too.
Elly was awesome! Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated regularly with great pictures. While we were away, she took wonderful care of our home and, most importantly, our pup. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. We came home to a happy dog and a well-kept house, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.
Our first time using Rover and our dog sitter cancelled last minute (was not very fun). In a panic, Charlene was one of the first few people I reached out to since we already have a booking coming up in August with her. She is a total life saver. Not only did she accept our last minute request, she was also able to push out the dog sitting a little because of our delayed travel plans due to a family emergency. She is so sweet, accommodating, and reliable. She took amazing care of our pups and I'm sure they miss her. She kept us updated with pics and texts on the daily. She made our first experience with Rover so seamless, we cannot thank her enough!
I am so pleased with Ashley's care of Fizi! Last month his bonded littermate, Voodoo, passed away and it's been hard for all of us. He's become extra attached and doesn't do well by himself. We had this planned vacation and she provided the necessary support so we could unwind. He clearly took to her immediately, including cuddling on her. I would highly recommend her to anyone, she clearly understands and cares about our furry family members!
Lily stayed at our house for a long weekend to watch our two dogs, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly communicative throughout the stay, keeping us updated and making us feel totally at ease while we were away. She was also extremely easy to work with from start to finish. When we returned home, the house was exactly the way we left it, which we really appreciated. Most importantly, our dogs were clearly happy and well cared for. Lily did a wonderful job and we’re very grateful for the care she provided. We would absolutely book with Lily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful dog sitter.
Lauren housesat for us with our 3 labs. She was very responsive to communication and kept us informed to any issues. We will use her services again in the near future. Our pups were happy and content when we got home. They were well cared for, and I think they miss her!!!
