“Askley dog sitted at our house for the weekend. She was very responsive to initial inquiry as well as continued communication. She was professional yet very friendly and asked appropriate questions about our dogs . Our dogs are quite a handful but she developed a fast relationship with them. She sent pictures and brief update daily. So glad we found an amazing caregiver thru Rover!”

“Ashley did a great job pet sitting for Tallee! She has been having seizures and Ashely was confident and willing to stay with her at my home. It really helped me enjoy my time away without worrying too much, knowing she was there with Tallee. I'm so happy to have her help!”

“Our dog and our home were in great hands with Marcia. We were gone for two weeks and I was nervous to hire a dog sitter, but she took care of everything and our dog was so happy when we returned. She was easy to communicate with and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!”

“Mary followed all my instructions perfectly and left copious notes about her time with the dogs. My dogs can be challenging but she handled them like a pro! My house was just as I left it when I returned.”

“Tatyana is awesome!! Stayed at our house for two weeks to take care of our dogs and she rocked it!! Not only did she take care of the dogs but she also took good care of the house. Looking forward to working with Tatyana again in the future!!!”

About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.
“Our home & animals were well cared for and the place was left in better shape than we left it. Daily pics and happy animals. We’re sad Kaitlyn isn’t staying in the area for long because we’d definitely book her again.”

“Travis did a great job with our two dogs and cat! He was very attentive and caring to our animals, which we greatly appreciated. He sent us pictures and kept in touch with us daily too, which we asked for and loved. He was also very responsible at our home and left it in the same condition in which he found it. Highly recommend and will hire him again.”


“Glad I chose Nate to stay at my house for a week while I was on vacation. He went out of his way and bought a new leash for my dog Lacy after it snapped. He is very good with communication and sent me pictures of how she was holding up. Highly recommend and will be having him do it again.”
About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.
“Mallory has been amazing! She has watched my dog twice now and each time has gone very smoothly. My large dog is very sweet once you know him but has a protective streak that can make initial meetings difficult. However, Mallory instantly put him at ease and clearly knows when to give dogs space and how to best approach. My dog loves her and I always feel comfortable leaving him in her care. 100% recommend!”

“Sam took excellent care of my dogs and home. I was happy to get pics and updates, as well as to come home to a clean house. He even washed the bedsheets ? I recommend Sam for both house and pet sitting!”

About: Dogs bring so much joy to my life, and I love giving that right back to them. I’m new to Madison and working as pharmacy resident so don’t have time for my own pup but have so much love to share! I work full-time as a pharmacy resident during the day, so I’m available for evening walks after 5 PM on weekdays. I have full availability on weekends. Safety is always my top priority on walks. I stay attentive, use secure handling, and tailor each walk to the dog’s pace and comfort level.
“Julia was so pleasant and professional! She asked great questions to prepare for her time with Princeton, and you could tell she really cared - Princeton warmed up to her immediately :) I highly recommend Julia and would definitely hire her again!”

“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Elizabeth. She was so diligent about following Gus's routine, so great about keeping us updated on how things were going, and above all SO kind and understanding of our pups needs as a spicy/reactive dog. She left me completely at ease and able to relax on our trip. I am so glad we've found her and that our baby has someone he will not just be comfortable with, but excited to spend time with while we are gone!”


“We've never had anyone watch our cats except for family. I was extremely nervous, but after reading Abigail's profile, and watching her interact with our cats at the initial meeting, I knew I had found the right person! Abigail took lots of notes and asked tons of questions to make sure she had all the information to not only cat sit, but stay in our house for 12 days. Both cats immediately took to her like they were long lost besties. We were out of the country, but I received multiple photo's and video's every day so we never felt like we were so far away. The people we were traveling with were impressed with the number of pictures, updates and video's we received. Somehow she even got the picky eater cats to eat more than they do during a normal day. If I ever need someone to care for our pets in the future, Abigail will be the first person I look for!”

McFarland pet parents share their Rover experiences
This particular need came at a very unexpected time as our family navigated the loss of a loved one and needed to leave town quickly. I was not familiar with Rover or having someone come stay in my home. Our pup, Maverick, is aging and needs extra TLC so it was extremely important that the person be able to come to him. I connected with Ashley and she was nothing short of a miracle! Very accommodating, kind beyond words, visited our home last minute to get a full download, and set all of my anxiousness at ease. Maverick adored her the moment she came in which told me I had made the right connection. Throughout her care for him, she updated me often, sent sweet pictures, and asked questions when needed. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome, especially in such a a difficult time in our lives. We’re very thankful for her and feel we’ve made a lifelong connection for when we need someone special to handle our most precious furry family members. ♥️

This is the first vacation we've been on where we didn't worry about our cat at all! Elise took excellent care of our cat and our house. We really enjoyed her updates and photos. We think our cat actually misses Elise, he was wandering around looking for her and whining when we got home. :) We will definitely book again! Thanks Elise!
