“Kristin was great with our dog while we were out of town. She stayed at our home, shared pictures and great updates. Highly recommend; will definitely rebook in the future!”

“This is the second time we've had Karena petsit for our 3 smaller dogs ranging in age from 3 to 10 and we were just as happy this time as before. She sends daily updates even if the pups aren't doing anything different than the day before. She would still send us cute pics of them snuggling into their beds or chilling with her on the couch. She's responsive and picks up / cleans up after herself so the house is as tidy as when we left. Highly recommend!!!”


“Dominique was an outstanding sitter for my pup Ranna! Not only is she highly experienced with sitting dogs that have very specific personalities and needs, she’s extremely responsive and always provides me with timely updates and cute pictures of Ranna while I was away. I’m thrilled to have a great sitter to lean on when I need someone to watch my pup.”

“Just was great with Dutch he kept me updated through the holiday and made sure to send plenty of pictures! If you ever need someone to take care of you’re pup Justin will be the perfect match.”

“Brett is an excellent dogsitter. He takes our dog on walks and cuddles with her like we know. He has taken the time to understand her likes and dislikes and her quirks. He is very patient and kind with her and communicates frequently with texts and pictures. We highly recommend Brett.”

“Monica was wonderful! She took excellent care of Charley, sent us plenty of updates and left our house in immaculate condition after her stay. She even washed the sheets and remade the bed before she left (she didn't have to do that). Our Charley girl loved her and had such a good time. Your pet and home are in great hands with Monica; we can't wait to book her again!”

About: I have very flexible schedule. To me it just seems like dogs love my energy cause when I'm around they find there way to me. I mostly just dog sit on the weekends because I have a full time job working 8 to 5. I'm still available during the week. I just feel I have more time to spend with your fur babies on weekends. By giving them all the attention that they require. I Love going for walks and being out doors. So they will definitely get their exercise in each day.
“Jeni was great—she kept me posted about how my pup was doing, took her on hikes, and was just generally warm with her. She also took great care of our house, which I was really appreciative of. We would definitely use her again!”

“Olivia truly lets us take a vacation without having to worry about our dogs or home. She is consistently sending photos and giving updates as well as seemingly enjoying time with our dogs. Very happy to have her as a sitter!!”

“My two dogs were well cared for when I was on a 10 day adventure! They were happy and content and I felt so relived to know they were in such good care. Thank you!”

“Hanna Rose is an absolute GEM! She is a true pet lover and fell in love with my pup instantly. Hanna responded quickly even with such short notice, initiated an in person meet & greet for the next day, and then stayed over at my place the following day so that Luna could be in her own environment. She is caring, professional, and just literally one of the very best pet sitters we have ever had in ten years! Every dog needs a little Hanna in their life !!! 🐶”

“Shalisha was fantastic with my picky little dog, Joplin. She sent me pictures of Joplin several times a day. I would highly recommend Shalisha!!!! Also, she showed up promptly to our meet and greet and to the house the day we left. I will be using her for my out of town trips from now on!”

“Stephanie was so great. She has great communication skills, she pays attention to detail, and most importantly took great care of my sweet boys. I appreciated how she kept me in the loop with her schedule and how the boys were doing while I was gone. She’s great and will take amazing care of your pets!”

“Nicole is our go to sitter! She stays at our home with our pups whenever we are out of town and she honestly leaves our home cleaner than we left it. She is so respectful of our home and pups and could not recommend her more! Our dogs love her and she does everything with extra care!”

“Tara was great for house sitting my pup. She is easy to talk to, kept up with me while I was away, sent lots of pics, and left my pup happy and my house just the way I found it. I would use her again!”

“Emily was wonderful!! We have a dog with severe separation anxiety, and Emily was excellent with communication and sent wonderful updates. She left our home tidy, and we would totally use her services again. We appreciated her being here with our dog so much!!”

About: Remembering those amazing adventures I had with Onyx, Moonshine, Jewels, and Rocket; Exploring creeks, hiking through woods, even bike rides - they were always by my side! That love for dogs just never left me. Now, my family's pack includes Kyla, Hugo, Apollo, and Tinker Bell. Each one with their own personality, like Apollo, the bull mastiff with a heart of gold, a gentle giant. Or Tinker Bell, the English bulldog who thinks I'm her dad whenever I go to visit her. My mom found her online, and I knew I had to bring her home. Those frosty nights I spent potty training her every two hours show you how dedicated I am! They say I have a way with dogs, and I couldn't agree more. Your furry friend will be showered with love, playtime, and understanding. With me, they'll get my absolute best, because just like my childhood pups, they'll be part of the family too. See? Genuine and full of love for all our furry friends! ❤️ I'm currently working part-time, I attend my son at night. Miguel, who is 13 years old. Most of my day is spent at home, unless I'm at the gym. If I have your fried fur instead of the gym, we'll probably be finding our way to dog parks, dog bars, you choose. If it's something they're used to. Otherwise, the condominium is large and has space for your dog to play and be able to run at will, my apartment is always well maintained. Something I've always kept with me. I always keep my apartment tidy and any mess almost immediately cleaned. So they will be in a very clean environment most of the time! I am a very attentive person, attention to detail is something that I valued a lot. I guaranteed that they are taking every hour and a half to two hours to go to the bathroom. Depending on the number of pets, I have at a time when they can even run freely in the specific dog spaces we have in the condominiums or in the parks for them to go out to get some fresh air, if they want. If there are special treats or medications that they need in a timely manner, you can trust that I will put them in the regular routine with the needs you already have in place.

“Kortney did great. She kept us up to date with pictures and texts while we were gone and even helped with some chores around the house while we were out. Would highly recommend. Thanks Kortney!”

Marlwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jeff was absolutely fantastic! He spent a week with our pup and took awesome photos, gave very detailed updates and was a wonderful guest in our home. We are very happy with how well he cared for Nova and it is clear he is passionate about pets. We would certainly book with him again.

Celeste was great. She was our first rover and my husband and I were going out of the country for a week and a half. When we first met, she had remembered all of my dog’s info in her profile (how frequently she needs to be let out, fed, etc). She was able to keep our energetic pup entertained and was very communicative by sending us daily check ins. Our dog loved snuggling with her and it was very comforting knowing our dog was in good hands while we were away. She also left our house super clean and had even washed the bedding and towels that she has used which was super helpful. Would definitely book again !

Our puppy Nacho LOVED Chyna! From the first meet and greet, she was welcoming and very knowledgeable about her job. She was very communicative and accessible during our entire trip and constantly sent us updates. I would recommend Chyna 1000 times over. She was amazing!

Jordan house and pet (one dog, two cats) sat for us over the Thanksgiving holidays. He did a great job of keeping us posted as to his schedule and sent a lot of pictures, which we always enjoyed, and left our house in fine condition. He was always on time for our pre-trip meet and greets and clearly knows a lot about animal behavior. I will be looking for him the next time we will be out of town, and recommend that you do the same!
I am so thrilled to have found Olivia. She treated my hyper dog with such care and compassion. Taking her for walks daily; kindly helping her behave better; letting her sleep in the bed. Olivia even helped me monitor an issue that happened in my house while I was away. She sent me darling photos twice a day and answered my texts immediately. There couldn’t be a better house sitter and dog lover. You will be very lucky to have Olivia care for your little one. She is truly excellent.

Max was a great house and pet sitter for our nine day excursion. He kept us informed as to their activities each day and we came back to a happy dog and two cats. He watered the plants when they needed it, walked the dog each day per our request, and left everything as we left it. We won't hesitate to contact Max again when we have to be away.
We had such a great experience with Kenara! She took wonderful care of our dogs, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure our home was exactly as we left it. Most importantly, our dogs were relaxed and happy when we returned—not anxious at all. We’d absolutely recommend her and will definitely book again!
