“Zana is knowledgeable and experienced. It was such a relief to be able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that our pets were comfortable, happy, and cared for. She is an excellent communicator, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Zana!”


“Allison was amazing with our pittie mix rescue who was a stray for 2 years and can be anxious and skittish. She immediately loved Allison (more so than she even loves us, I was joking with my husband) and even went to sleep while Allison was watching her which is unheard of for our dog. Highly recommend, Allison is truly a dog whisperer!”


“Juliana and Celeb did a wonderful job at carrying for our two dogs. Our pups feel in love with Juliana. And she showed them so much love and attention while we were out of town. They didn’t even act like they missed us, hahaha. We will definitely be using them again. They took excellent care of our home and even made sure our plantings were watered in this record breaking heat. My husband and I felt so good while away knowing our babies were being cared for by two people who love dogs and are very good with them. Thank you both for being so awesome with Bandit and Boone.”


“Amanda was awesome! She took great care of my senior dogs and left my home cleaner than it was when I left for vacation. Amanda communicated with me during my trip to let me know the pups were ok and even picked up a few toys for my sweet boy. Will definitely work with Amanda again!”


About: I’m currently training to be a therapist so I have a keen sense for emotions… pets included! I’ve dog sat for family numerous times and am hoping to branch out. I love being around animals, am a very easy guest, and will happily send you any pictures of your pets! I have class 1-9pm on Monday and Wednesday but am mostly free otherwise! I get up early to swim twice a week (Fri and Sat), but can go straight back if needed. I don’t do much, so I’m pretty open! I’m willing to do whatever I can to help the pet feel safe and welcomed. Whether they want to play, rest, eat, or walk, I’m happy to help them out!

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats before. I also have plenty experience taking care of bigger animals as I used to be a working student at the barn I boarded my horses at from when I was 10-15. I’ve been trusted by many friends and family to take care of their furry friends including but not limited to horses, bunnies, fish, dogs, and cats. I have experience with grooming dogs as well due to having a golden doodle of my own. If you have any more questions feel free to ask! I currently work a Part-time job that schedules me 2-3 times a week so I have a lot of availability to make house visits or spend the day as much as you would need me to! I also love to go on walks and take hikes so if I am looking after an Active dog it is no problem! If your dog likes to play with other dogs I have a fenced in yard and two other dogs of mine who are very friendly. I am very neat and organized so the chance of your animal eating something or getting into something they’re not supposed to is very slim.

About: While I’m newer to professional pet care (3 years), I’ve spent lots of time walking and caring for dogs for friends and family. I’m dependable, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe and happy. I’m especially good with routines and following care instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime. I may be newer, but I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving every dog the attention and love they deserve. As a part-time worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have consisted time frames to dedicate to pet care. I enjoy spending time with animals, and taking care of pets fits naturally into my routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s a walk before work or a check-in visit after, I always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on time, regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I also keep the space tidy and provide updates to the owner for peace of mind, when needed. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a safe, cozy environment and stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. Whether in their home or mine, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I would give my own.

“We were away for 6 days. Mina stayed at our house with Bronc. She visited ahead of time to get the "lay of the land" and instructions. Bronc is a 4 1/2 yr old, active CBR. Mina did GREAT. She sent a couple phots every day. Bronc was happy to see us when we came home but not shot out of a cannon. He was calm. That says it all for an active CBR!”


About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, donkeys, goats, chickens, ferrets, hamsters, etc. I’m used to being in households with multiple animals. I have a Boston Terrier that I consistently walk. I don’t currently have a job I’m full time pet sitting. However I do take jobs outside of rover and have occasional plans or trips but I’m very flexible. I have a Boston Terrier who I let out on a leash and take on walks around the neighborhood. He typically sleeps in his crate.

About: I have three pets at home, 2 dogs and a cat, and I've also done care for my neighbors. I can deal with high and low energy pets, and while most of my experience is with mid-large sized dogs, I'm cool with anything small or large. Currently a student at Towson University. I don't have any other responsibilities this summer, so my schedule is currently pretty free and I can do most times. I can play in any way your dogs want, take care of their needs on schedule (grooming included), or just relax with them if that's what they want. I am prepared to dedicate myself to the happiness and safety of the dogs in my care.

“Maddie was great! She communicated and sent pics. Our pupper suffers from separation anxiety and she took very good care of him! He’s a high energy dog and she kept him happy ?. Thanks, Maddie!!”


About: I have 1 dog and four cats, a few years of pet sitting experience, and even worked as a kennel tech at a dog kennel before. I’m currently in the process of finding a part-time or full-time job since I’m taking a break from college, but pet sitting on the side would give me a good opportunity to not only earn money but to give me a purpose and do something I’ve always loved to do: caring for and helping animals (and helping their owners out too!) Like I mentioned, I have several pets at home so I can easily do things like taking dogs outside to go to the bathroom and on walks, feeding them, clean up after them (I especially clean litter boxes a lot), and I can even stay with them as long as they need if they don’t do well being alone for long periods of time.

“Kate was terrific! I have two pups, one is a very nervous dog and I've stuck with using family members for years but decided to give Rover a try and got Kate! She was great with the dogs, sent lots of pix while I was gone to let me know all was well (MUCH appreciated) and I could see the pups were calm/happy. Came home to a straight/clean house and two happy dogs :) I will def'ly be working with Kate again in the future if she is game! Thanks Rover!”


“Deanna watched our dog Cosmo for a week while we were on vacation. She was very professional and Cosmo was well taken care of. She communicated with us all week and even sent us pictures. We would definitely use her again!”


“Connor took the BEST care of Rio and Kiwi! Kiwi is a special needs dog and therefore requires some specific care. Connor exceeded our expectations, stuck to their schedule and meet all their needs. We are so grateful. The house was also in good order and as clean as the way we left it. Thank you Connor for taking such good care of our girls!”


“Morgan saved our family vacation!! Our original pet sitter cancelled on us 3 days before we were set to leave for a week-long trip. Morgan responded to my late night booking request within minutes of submitting it and was willing to pet sit for us on such short notice. The meet & greet went great and she was so sweet with our large/giant breed dogs and our ancient cat. Throughout our week away, there was excellent communication and lots of pictures, with updates on how everyone was doing. Our giant boy doesn’t usually eat well when we’re away, but he ate just fine with Morgan! We came home to a clean house, happy and well cared for animals, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! We would absolutely rebook Morgan again for future trips and highly recommend her services!”


“Having a sitter stay in our home with Sophie was a good decision for her. She and Aleia seemed to do very well together and we will definitely ask for Aleia in the future. We very much liked receiving the photos while we were away.”

“I can’t recommend Alicia enough—she’s an amazing dog sitter! From the moment she met my puppy, it was clear she genuinely loves and understands animals. She’s reliable, attentive, and goes above and beyond to make sure my dog feels safe, happy, and entertained. The only downside? I’m beginning to think my dog likes Alicia more than he likes me! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Alicia is the one!”

Aleia stayed with our two pups for 13 days. She was truly the best! Our dogs loved her and she cared for them so very well while we were away. Aleia gave us daily updates and pictures and we even FaceTimed once lol. She cared for our home too. Watering plants and taking care of minor pool maintenance. The house was spotless when we got home from our vacation and dogs were healthy and happy. We appreciate all she did to assure us and the dogs they would be loved while we were away. Thanks again!

Aleia was a terrific sitter for our two older dogs. She was communicative, responsive, proactively helpful, and I never worried about the dogs while we were away as a result. She also fed our hamster, brought in the mail and kept all my plants alive. Yay! My whole family enjoyed seeing the daily pictures she sent of the pups - it was clear that they were happy and comfortable with Aleia. I would definitely hire Aleia again to watch the pups and I do recommend her as an excellent dog sitter.
