1. Sonja G.

“We were very pleased with Sonja's services. She followed the instructions we left for her in regards to feeding and care for our 2 dogs. Seeing the photos Sonja sent of our dogs while at our home set our minds at ease. We knew Olive and Jules were being well taken care of.”


2. Heather L.

“Heather house- and dog-sat for us over the weekend as our first experience with Rover and it went great. We were updated with photos of our dogs once she arrived (we had already left) and she was very responsive all along the way. It couldn't have gone any better.”


3. Rodney J.

“Rodney house say for us and watched all our animals (dogs, cat, chickens, rabbit). They ALL loved him and he sent us updates and pictures often. Absolutely 10/10 would recommend. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our homes and fur babies were well taken care of!”


4. Anne T.

“As a new dog-mom, and first-time Rover user, I had some anxiety about leaving someone I didn’t know to care for my young dog & senior cat for five days. I immediately liked Anne’s energy. She’s professional, capable, and trust-worthy. She helped to ease my mind and kept in constant contact while I was away which allowed me to truly enjoy my much needed vacation stress-free. I highly recommend her!”


5. Kaylee C.

“Kaylee was fantastic! She was communicative, punctual, and went above and beyond expectations. I felt very comfortable leave my anxious dog in her care. I got many updates from her, with pictures! She was respectful and left the house in great shape. I highly recommend her.”


6. Kent K.

“Kent is great! My dog is really anxious and has a lot of energy. He doesn’t warm up to people quickly but they became best buds right away. My dog was exhausted when I got home. The last time I had to use a dog sitter my dogs eating habits would change and showcase a lot of separation anxiety every time! This time I returned to a happy well adjusted puppy who had a great time with his best friend. My house was spotless when I returned home as well. Thanks!”


7. Lauren E.
“Lauren is Fantastic! Nala, our 4 year old mini labradoodle LOVES Lauren. When I tell her Lauren is coming over she gets so excited. Then when she arrives, Nala loves on her like they have been separated for months. Lauren has been walking Nala for us a few months now, and she is so great. Always happy and shows up with a smile on her face. Always on time and is very good about communicating any need to change day or time. Always makes sure to let me know how Nala did on the walk, especially if they encountered other dogs, animals or strange events. The way Lauren talks to, and treats Nala tells me everything I need to know about her. She loves animals and has a heart of gold! I wouldn't hesitate one second to have her house/pet sit for us, and we will definitely keep having her walk Nala until she no longer can or wants to!”


8. Ellen S.

“Wonderful! We had a long trip where we had NO service and Ellen was still sending updates and photos. We had no issues. Our house was in the same condition we left it in. Our boys can be a handful and Ellen handled them beautifully. Definitely will be rebooking!!”




9. Nicole K.

“Was very satisfied with the overall experience. House was exactly as we left it when we returned. Puppies were excited to see us too. Nicole even cleaned up the dog poo in the back yard, yeah bonus!”

About: I will care for your fur babies just like my own. I have 3 dogs of my own. 1 senior beagle, a 4 year old lab/pit mix, and a 5 month old lab puppy. I’ve had dogs my whole life and have cared for them from puppy to senior. I’ve also had 2 cats before as well. No challenge is too big or small for. I would love to watch your fur babies while your away with the piece of mind that they are safe and loved. I do prefer meet and greets prior to any stay with your animals, either at your home or somewhere neutral. If a meet and greet can’t be made, you must be okay with my husband coming with me. I work part time and my schedule is 5 days on and 9 days off. I would need a few days notice about any possible appointment due to my schedule. However it does leave me open for extended stays. Due to having 3 of my own dogs at home I prefer to watch your dog/cat at your home. This ensures I can provide the most care and attention for your animals needs.


11. Anne B.


“Kya enjoyed her time with Anne. She got to be around water for the first time and meet new friends, dog and human alike. I knew she would have an adventure with Anne and she certainly did. Thank you for taking care of my sweet girl!”


12. Hunter J.

“Hunter is very attentive and spoiled my dog. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. I was very nervous and hesitant leaving my baby for so long but hunter gave me updates and was very transparent with us. Lucy got walks and plenty of play time would definitely hire again. The only thing I wished I would have done was been more upfront about what Lucy’s schedule was like but I was still learning how all this worked but hunter fit right in and helped Lucy adapt and did an amazing job.”

14. Brittany J.

“Brittany helped us in a pinch and was so good with our Great Dane, Rosemary. We appreciated her responsiveness and all the photos and videos she sent of their time together. She clearly has a genuine love for dogs and knows how to care for them. We came home to a happy and relaxed pup and couldn't be more grateful. Rose made a new friend, and we look forward to using her services again. We highly recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable dog sitter!”


15. Aveline A.
“Aveline is one of my bestest friends. She has babysat my dogs while I was on vacation before and as far as I’m concerned she did a great job and everyone was taken care of. I know she has had animals her whole life and she really does care. She recently got her own personal dog and he’s one of most well trained dogs that I know. I think she would do a great job in Rover considering her experience with babysitting and house sitting her bosses kids and dog.”

18. Catherine T.
About: Hi! My name is Catherine Tombelli and I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid, every animal growing up I was obsessed with and loved to take care of. In light of that as I grew older, I realized I wanted to work with animals and the first place I started was getting a job at the Humane Society in Indianapolis. I spent many hours with the dogs every single day and took care of 50+ animals as an animal care attendant. I was responsible for feeding the animals, giving medications, bathing, and cleaning kennels. I loved working there, but I ended up moving here to Jackson and want to continue my time with animals! I have 5 cats and 3 dogs, I always want them to have the best and give every animal the same love I give mine:) I am available weekdays and some weekends depending on times. feel free to shoot me a text so we can talk about details and I’m sure to fit you in. I have four animals at my house, three cats and one dog. They all get lots of love, attention and endless cuddles. I always make sure they’re getting everything they need.


19. Savanah S.
About: I've always had a dog since I was little and recently started to volunteer at the lenawee humane society. I've watched over my family's and friends pets while in vacation or out of town as well. I work at a library about 3 days a week and would like to find time for other part time jobs. I kove animals and think that this would be a good time filler for me. I live in the country and have a big yard for dogs to rumn around and play.my yard isn't fenced in but I do have a long lead for them if they would like to stay out for longer. But I do have a crate if your dog is crate trained. I have lots of toys and dog food if needed.

“Halena is a wonderful care taker of my animals. I’ve never had any issues or complaints with her, she feeds and waters them and plays with them. Make sure they are walked and loved while I am away. She has a very deep love for animals and it shows!”
