“What can I say Stephanie is Amazing. Max just loves her. I feel so lucky to have found some so reliable and kind. Do yourself a favor and don’t look elsewhere unless she’s booked. Thank you Stephanie”
“Carey did a great job taking care of our dog while we were away. She kept us updated on his activities, shared several pictures, and made sure he was well looked after. She also took good care of our home, which we really appreciated. We’d be happy to book her again in the future and would recommend her to others looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Lauren, did a great job caring for our puppy Gunner, old grumpy dog Jack and our house while we were away. Both dogs being at very different life stages required specific needs and she cared for each wonderfully. She communicated regularly with photos and messages and left our dogs tired and happy and our house spotless. Definitely recommend Lauren to house/and or dog sit!”
“Sarah was great! She kept us updated, sent pictures and our dogs seemed happy & comfortable upon returning which is the most important. Happy to have her as a trusted dog sitter to use in the future!”
“Jane was absolutely lovely! This was my first time hiring anyone to watch my babies and I felt so confident in Jane to take care of them. From start to finish the process was extremely smooth, especially for my last minute booking. My animals, home, and mind were all taken care of while I went out of state! I appreciate you so much Jane!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I can remembers. We grew up with a Chihuahua and German Shepherd, and now I have a Husky. I love taking her for long walks and hikes on the weekends! I currently work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule. I can't board any pets, but I can generally petsit with some notice! I've cared for pets in multiple client's home. Some are crated and others are allowed to roam freely, this all just depends on what you prefer.
About: I have a childhood dog that lives with my parents and two young kitties that live with me. I have experience with both and know how different personalities can be! I work Monday through Friday in a hybrid position but make my own schedule therefore can work around your pets needs. I am an active person that enjoys walks and playing with cats and dogs. I have a gated driveway that is used occasionally but remains closed if no car is going in or out. It is big enough for your pet to play in and there is a backyard where they can go potty. I will always be with them when outside and they can be in their crate inside or I don't mind giving them extra cuddles on the couch.
“Ana was so so sweet! She did an amazing job taking care of our pup! She gave us frequent updates, asked in depth questions about him and his routine, and followed his schedule perfectly! She left him fulfilled and happy. Will for sure book with her again if I need a sitter for sure she was the best!!!”
About: In the recent years I have often taken care of friend’s and family’s pets, in both my own home, as well as in their homes! I currently work a hybrid job that allows for me to stay at home most of the week. This opens up my schedule greatly to work with animals and be flexible with appointments. I am a very caring and detail oriented person. Ever since I was a little girl, I have always wanted what’s best for animals. Looking after living beings is careful work but when done right, is incredibly rewarding and fun! I always listen to the owners instructions and abide by them. I try to be diligent and am always there to provide gentle care.
About: I’ve grown up having dogs and cats my whole life! They bring me so much joy, and life is so much better with our fluffy friends. Growing up, I’ve been blessed with Shih Tzu’s, a Maltese, a labradoodle, a golden doodle, Siamese cats, a tuxedo cat, and a ragdoll. Besides my own pets, I have lots of experience pet sitting Dalmatians, German Shepherds, and indoor/outdoor cats. I love to spend time with them and will ensure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. I also have lots of experience administering medicine. I promise to love your fur baby and treat them as I would my own. ❤️ I will talk to them, sing to them, and of course, spoil them! I’m a full-time musician and my week days are usually very flexible. I have shows during evenings and weekends, but I can always make time to check in on your pets for potty and feeding times. With my own dogs and cats, I know how important attention and quality time are for their health and happiness. I will follow your instructions on your pet’s needs, including walks, feeding times, treats, medications, and play!
“Christine is truly amazing!!! I booked her last minute and she was able to accommodate my schedule request. Her flexibility made it easy to meet my needs. Christine was very respectful in my home. She was also extremely attentive to my two babies. She treated them like her own. Her friendly energy made it easy for my babies to warm up to her right away. She communicated with me throughout her stay and provided updates that made me feel more comfortable. She is very professional and polite. I got so lucky I found her. I will definitely be booking with her again. She is reliable. I Highly recommend her. She is the best sitter! I was very pleased with her services.”
About: I’ve been involved in fostering rescue dogs for the past 8 years and caring for my family’s own dog we adopted through fostering. I have experience with medical needs and senior dogs. I am a student, which gives me flexible hours during the week! Most days I finish classes around noon, giving me the opportunity to offer care from the early afternoon to evenings. I treat and care for all pets like they are my own! I love spending time with dogs and cats and are always ready to provide excellent care.
About: Hi! I’m Hannah and I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Since I was just a kid I’ve walked my dogs and my neighbors dogs on the daily. I’m accustomed to all sizes and have taken care of dogs from the size of a little terroir to a huge German Shepard. My soul dog was the cutest husky German Shepard mix that passed away in 2025 and he had awoken my great love for dogs. I’m active and love taking dogs out for adventures, runs, and very long walks. Some of my experience on the more special side include puppy care, disabled dogs, and senior dogs, fish, and cats. I’m comfortable with it all! I think all animals are special and deserve the most love :) I work part time as a nanny for two families so my schedule can be flexible :) I have most weekends available and lots of random hours available during the week. I care for your pets as if they were mine. I give lots of love and cuddles and make sure their needs are seen and met. I’ll follow by all the rules you place and be there for your pets safety and friend.
About: I care for both puppies and senior dogs. I grew up with dogs and turtles and fishes, and I truly believe they are humans best friends. Dogs truly deserve the best in the world. I am a part time Disney cast member and a full time student. My schedule for work is quite flexible so I can make it work with walking dogs and watching my family’s pets while they are away. I offer walks and drop in visits to keep your puppy entertained and give them company. I also include fun activities during my visits and walks to keep them busy and get those zoomies out:).
“Sabrina is a thoughtful, kind & resourceful sitter. She spent 5 days at our place taking really good care of our boy Beau. We got texts & photos. I think Beau fell in love with her. In the future if need be, we’d be very happy having Sabrina sit with our Beau. Thanks Sabrina!”
“I can’t say enough about Chelsea. She is amazing. Leaving my pets is hard to do, but she makes me feel so comfortable. She takes amazing care of my pups and my home. You won’t find a better pet sitter.”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Gabby. She took care of my husky and cat for two weeks. She updated me with pictures daily and I could see that both of my pets were happy and well taken care of. She’s an excellent communicator and genuinely cares about animals. She left the house spotless upon my return. I will definitely be booking her in the future and I highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog or cat sitter. Thank you so much, Gabby.”
“Tammy was amazing. She spent a lot of one on one time with our little ones and was very attentive of the directions we asked for. She also kept in contact and sent pictures which my wife really liked. Would rate an 11 out of 10 and definitely use again.”
Mar-Les pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah was amazing with both my dogs! It was her first time with them and gave Whinnie the time and space she needed to warm up to her. She gave me daily updates on them and photos which made me feel less anxious about being away. Our flight home got canceled due to the storm affecting most of the US and she was able to extend an extra 2 days at the last minute. She was a LIFE SAVER! We came come to happy, healthy dogs and a spotless home. I definitely recommend booking Sarah!
Dawn hit it off with our moderately shy kitties almost immediately and it was no surprise when they quickly adopted her as their new cuddle-buddy. Dawn also took great care of our cockatiel and koi fish, and sent lots of updates with photos during her stay. We are so glad to have found her!
Cassaundra was absolutely wonderful. She kept me updated with photos while we were gone and made sure our animals were loved and cared for. She also went the extra mile and cleaned our house which looked even better than when we left it! Will definitely book her again to house sit when we’re out of town.
Matt and Bella were great pet sitters. There communication and punctuality were perfect - amazing!!!! We have 4 raucous dogs - 3 are over 50 pounds and Matt was so calm with them that they greeted him like an old friend. We received regular updates and photos, which are so appreciated, especially being a nervous pet parent. It's always so nice to come home after a busy weekend and the house was in perfect order and the pups were happy - Ahhhhh! I highly recommend Matt and Bella to provide your pet and housesitting needs. Thank you so much!
Elizabeth exceeded our expectations . Made everything seamless and easy . She was amazing with communication and updated us with pictures . Our boy Bo loved her ! We look forward to using her services in the future and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur babies .
Christian was a phenomenal dog-sitter! He made sure to provide updates of the service everyday. I greatly appreciated his communication style - Especially while my husband and I were out of town. He also made sure to inform us of any incidents while we were away. I felt so at ease while on vacation, and it’s all thanks to Christian. Overall, our family would love to book him again (if he’d have us, of course!). Thank you, again for taking care of our fur-son. <3
Abigail was the best!! She followed instructions to the letter! My babies were very happy when I got home. I can tell when my Bentley does not have a good experience and he showed no signs of anxiety when I got home. I will definitely rebook Abigail again and again. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
