“Lex has been such a god send! So responsive and flexible to our needs. We are so thankful that our furry friend has someone like Lex to check in on her while we’re gone.”
“It was a pleasure having Christina watch our Yorkie Evie. We appreciated her thorough communication and professionalism. We felt very comfortable having her dog-sit Evie while she is having a leg issue and required extra care. Evie looks forward to hanging with Christina again soon”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and being around them is something I genuinely enjoy. I grew up in a home full of dogs and at one point we had four at the same time, so I am very comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from super playful to more calm and shy. I now have a 75 pound Goldendoodle, so I am used to daily walks, playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of love and attention. I am very attentive and always pick up on a dog’s needs and energy, whether they want to play, relax, or just have some company. I have also cared for dogs for friends and neighbors, doing drop in visits and making sure they are happy, safe, and well taken care of while their owners are away. I treat every dog like my own and love creating a calm, positive experience for them. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and to give your pet lots of love and care. My schedule is very open and flexible, so I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I am available most days, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I am easy to work with and happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to keep things as normal and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and care for every pet based on what they are used to and what makes them feel comfortable. I am very attentive, keep a close eye on pets at all times, and always respect the owner’s preferences when it comes to care and routine.
“Gabrielle was amazing! Incredibly responsive and gave us such helpful updates while we were away for the weekend, including letting us know about our pups’ moods/how they seemed to be fairing. Also went above and beyond and kindly brought in our packages! We were in such a last minute bind and this was our first time with Rover, but Gabrielle truly saved the day and kept us confident in knowing that our pups were safe and cared for. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Daniel was super thoughtful and a great pet sitter for my cat Roy. Roy fell in love with him immediately, and I received lots of updates and pictures throughout. I'll happily rebook!”

About: I’m already pet sit through another site and have decided to expand my services to Rover! I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals. Whether it was dogs, cats, or other animals, having pets around has always been a big part of my life. I have been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends since elementary school.

I pride myself on being clean, respectful, and attentive to the needs of the pets I care for. I enjoy getting to know each animal and learning to care for them in the best suitable way.
“Brielle was great with Samson. He can be a bit anxious with new people but she was able to make him feel comfortable enough for petting and belly rubs. She also went above and beyond and picked up dog poop in my yard (that my son was supposed to do that week (eye roll)). Brielle has a very sweet disposition and you can feel how much she cares for dogs.”

“Ayo was amazing! I needed a sitter on short notice and he was available and flexible. He was very communicative and kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos of my cat.

“We love Julia!! She goes above and beyond to care for our two cats. And after a few sittings, our shy girl has become so comfortable with Julia, a significant testament to how she cares for animals ❤️ like they are her own. Julia is communicative, responsive and thoughtful. We’ve booked her multiple times and will continue to do so — she’s our go to for cat care 🫶”
Merchantville dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with our dog sitter while we were away. He took excellent care of Julie and Romeo, made sure they were fed, let outside regularly, and kept us updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear both dogs were comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciated the communication, reliability, and attention he gave them. I would definitely trust him to watch Julie and Romeo again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable pet care.
She was of great help when I took a 12 day trip to Italy. My wife works and could not let the dog out during the day. Normally, I worked a few blocks away and/or from home, and could feed the dog lunch and let him out into the yard as needed, as well as play with him. Carly was amazingly gracious, incredibly helpful and accommodating and ensured that my dog ate lunch at the right time, had yard time and love. We left her keys to the house and she handled this responsibility as a consummate professional. Very trustworthy and responsible. I will totally use her services again and am very glad I found her.
Shielamae is AMAZING! Super easy to work with and willing to do what she can to help out. Her services are well priced and WORTH IT. Shielamae helped me with a last minute booking that saved my entire trip, I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re struggling to pick between a sitter, look no further!
Kelsey put my mind at easy while out of town for a week. I booked Kelsey for daily drop-in visits for my cat and senior dog and it was evident that they both warmed up to her very quickly. She administered medication and provided detailed updates. I was able to have a stress free trip and will be booking with her again.
Chuck was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Atlas! Atlas is a large breed with a very 'big' personality and can be a bit intimidating with his barking at first, but Chuck handled him with professional ease and a great 'dogs will be dogs' attitude. We really appreciated the detailed visit summaries and the photos he sent for every single drop-in—it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Chuck is professional, reliable, and clearly great with animals. Atlas was so happy when we returned! We will definitely be booking Chuck again for our future trips and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.
Cheyenne was fantastic with my pets! She helped me out last minute with my cat and two dogs and did a great job with them. They were happy and well taken care of when I got back, and my house looked exactly as I left it. She was very communicative and left very detailed report cards about what she did each time she visited. I would highly recommend her!
Robert was very responsive, professional and an amazing person. We had a cancelation the day before we were to leave for our wedding and Robert showed up within 10 minutes of accepting the request. We felt so at ease once we met and every time Robert stopped by there was an excellent recap of his visit with Persi and great pictures too! We even asked Robert to visit 5 times one day and he was more than happy to take care of this. Excellent all around, will definitely rebook with him in the future!
Justin was truly great! My dogs are senior dogs and require a lot of special attention, but he never missed a beat. He sent me plenty of photos and detailed updates about what happened during each visit. It was a relief to know my dogs were being well taken care of. I plan to use Justin again!
Jessenya was extremely responsive and prompt with her communication before during and after visits. This was our first time using rover and she made it so much easier leaving our pups behind for such a long time. The photos are great and you can tell she really engaged and spent time with the dogs! Will be asking for her help again!
