“Jenna was great! Good communication, happy dogs when we got home, and she had even already washed all the linens and remade the bed in the guest room before we returned.”
“Can't say enough about Karen; she was attentive and sent pictures to keep me aware of how my baby was doing. I usually travel with my dog, but that wasn't an option this time. I was hesitant, but all my fears vanished when I saw the first picture! I knew she was in good hands.”
“Cheryl was fantastic. She took great care of out two dogs and our house while we were on an extended trip. Great communication. It is easy to see whst a great animal lover she is.”
“Migle was amazing with our dogs (who can be a lot)! Great communication, GREAT pics throughout our trip -- we felt super confident the dogs were happy and in good hands.”
“Andy was wonderful!! They sent pictures and updates throughout their stay with my pups. I will absolutely be asking Andy to stay with Piper and Dexter again!”
“Justin took great care of all 4 pets with all their little quirks and needs. He was communicative and shared a lot of pics. I definitely recommend him and hope he’ll come back soon :)”
“Dani was very good. I received pictures of Roscoe enjoying his walks and his quiet time with Dani. He looked great when I got back from my vacation.”
About: I lived in a household where we had six dogs at the same time and I was able to give them each individual care and keep them all happy, safe, fed, and attention. Ill be sitting full time. I currently don't work another job so this will be my only priority as I also do not have children. Making sure they are fed on time, listening or watching their particular way of communicating when they need to use the restroom or when they crave affection.
“I came home to happy, healthy dogs and my house looked exactly how I left it! I’m picky about dog sitters but I felt comfortable with Lydia. Looking forward to booking with her again.”
“Ivette stayed with our new puppy while we were away, and took such good care of her. She treated our little pup like she was her own. We appreciated the morning and evening updates and photos so much, and came home to a happy, well adjusted pup! I would recommend Ivette without hesitation!”
“Elizabeth is a fantastic pet sitter from start to finish. She replies immediately, communicates frequently during her stay at our home, respects and fulfills all our requests, leaves our home immaculate, and, most importantly, cares lovingly for our three sometimes rambunctious dogs. She is great with both seniors and youngsters. I highly recommend her. We have already rebooked!”
“Martha stayed with our two pups while we were out of the country for a week and a half. She did an amazing job caring for our elderly dog who has some significant health issues. The dogs clearly loved her and were super loving with her. Thank you so much, Martha!”
“We're so glad we found Rachel! She stepped in after our usual dog walker moved away. She is friendly and communicative. We've become repeat customers.”
“Nikoleta was GREAT! We always wonder/worry how our pets are doing and Nikoleta sent us many updates and photos, which really put our minds at ease! She was very respectful of our place and I think it might have been cleaner after she left than it was when she arrived! We’ll definitely book with Nikoleta again!”
About: I have always had a deep love for animals, and that passion has shaped my experience with pet care throughout my life. From a young age, I’ve been the go-to person in my family and circle of friends for looking after their pets. Whether it's walking dogs, feeding, administering medication, or just offering companionship, people have always relied on me to ensure their pets are well-cared for. I currently have four cats, and they truly are my life. Over the years, I’ve gained an in-depth understanding of their behaviors, quirks, and specific needs. I know how to create an environment where they feel safe, loved, and stimulated—whether it’s through play, grooming, or simply providing them with the space they need. Each of my cats has its own personality, and I've learned how to adapt my care for each of them individually. While I don't own dogs, I’m well-versed in their needs as well. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and companionship, and I’m comfortable with all breeds and temperaments. My experience with both cats and dogs gives me a comprehensive understanding of how to care for different animals and ensure they’re happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, from feeding and playtime to walks and grooming, ensuring all pets receive the attention and care they deserve. In both my home and clients' homes, I follow a personalized approach to pet care. I provide plenty of playtime, routine feeding, and ensure their environment is safe and comfortable. Whether it's administering medications, grooming, or simply offering companionship, I cater to each pet's specific needs and ensure they feel loved and secure.
“Jessica was just wonderful as usual - this time with both Evangeline and my new puppy Junebug. Junebug needed more time and attention, and Jessica was on it the whole time I was away. We love her! ❤️”
“Our boys loved Elise and took great care of them! One of our pups is terrified of storms and she did a great job following our care instructions and keeping him safe & calm!”
“McCall was wonderful and went above and beyond when one of the dogs decided to make an escape out of the backyard. She was communicative and cared for the animals with all the lovins! Will be requesting her again for future trips”
“Rene took great care of our pups. They were relaxed and happy when we got home and the house was kept clean. Thank you, Rene! Will book again :)”
“Ryan was a rockstar sitter. It was my first time using Rover to find someone to watch our house and 3 dogs. Ryan was available on very short notice and went with the flow when we asked him to administer medication to one of our pups at the last minute. The dogs loved him from the get go and we could tell in all the pictures that Ryan sent how at ease they were with him. We will definitely be calling him in the future. Thank you so much, Ryan!”

“Suzanne was a great sitter for my very needy cat while we went to work. She is great for high energy pets that need lots of exercise. She had no problem keeping up with a very needy husky/shepard mix. She is also very good at setting hard boundaries when necessary like with said husky mix that has a face licking problem. 10/10 would not be disappointed in her service and would hire again.”
