“Christina did a super job taking care of my cats. She sent me pictures every day and gave them the care they needed. I will most certainly call on her again. thank you, Christina.”


“Scott provided excellent care for our cat while we were away. He and his son bonded well with our cat, visiting daily to play and ensure he was well-fed. The detailed updates and daily photos were a thoughtful touch that gave us peace of mind. We highly recommend Scott and will definitely book him again in the future!”


About: I have been dog sitting in different capacities since I was in high school. I started off dog sitting for family and neighbors and now have a base of returning clients, one of which has show dogs. I have even been hired by the IWCA (Irish Wolfhound Club of America) to watch puppies and walk dogs at an international show. I have a base knowledge for training basic skills such as sit, down, stay, come and so on. I also have some experience working with reactive dogs and will work at their pace. Bottom line, I will love your fur babies like they're my fur babies! I work full time, but I am usually home by 4 pm so evenings and weekends are when I am most available. I can be flexible though! My calendar is currently open through 2025. If you want to book in advance for 2026, please message me and I will let you know if I can accommodate your dates! In my home, it's the dogs house and I just live there lol! I understand that how I train my dogs and the rules in my house don't work for everyone. When I am sitting for you, I will follow your rules and guidance for how you want your home run. My number one concern is safety followed closely by respect. Additionally, if you're a new dog owner looking for some guidance I am more than happy to help out where I can!

“Alexis is great and simply awesome. She took great care of Molly! Will definitely hire her again.”


“Melanie is fantastic and did a great job watching Rio! Melanie sent various updates while watching Rio, including pictures, and gave him his medicine. Rio had a great time and definitely wants Melanie to come back again!”


“Marcela was wonderful with my dog! As stubborn as my dog is she was patient, kind and kept me up to date on all the walks. I highly recommend her and hope to have her walk my dog again!”


“After deciding that a kennel would not work out for our dog, Lady, we saw Stacey’s info on Rover.com We had a nice meet and greet and as soon as our Lady walked over to her and connected, our decision was made. Besides the Rover updates, she stayed in touch personally. She gave us peace of mind.”


“Kassidy did a great job taking care of my two cats. She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and well looked after while I was away on a ten day trip. I will be booking her again!”



“I am so grateful I found Kelly on Rover! She was available on Thanksgiving and I was so lucky to book her when I did. She contacted me right away to set up a time to meet me and my pup and I knew immediately she'd be great. She was super communicative, so easy going and just so sweet! We will 100% use Kelly for dog walking in the future!”


“Shivani was very thoughtful and kind in her care of our dogs! She sent great pictures of them smiling up at here so we know they were well cared for and loved. She communicated well and was on time and responsible. We will definitely book with her again!”


“Leigha accepted our short notice booking for a week of daily check-ins with our 4 month old puppy. She expressed that she is new to Rover, but she is definitely a pro! Leigha and our pup got along along great! She sent photos/updates during every visit and respected our very specific requests. Thank you so much Leigha for being so great with Rue!”


“Christine took great care of my cat while I was on vacation. She sent pictures each day. And even though my cat hid under the bed, Christine made sure to sit with her so she would have company for a few minutes each day. Would definitely recommend Christine as a petsitter.”


“When my regular sitter canceled last minute I reached out to Kaitlyn. I work nights so usually it’s difficult to find someone to watch my pup. Kaitlyn quickly responded and was happy to stop in and spend time with my puppy, Nash. I have had rover sitters in the past who have left their visits early because Nash was too frustrating to deal with, but this was definitely not the case with Kaitlyn. Nash is stubborn and a bit of a trouble maker at times but Kaitlyn knew exactly how to handle him. She gave me detailed rover reports and had great communication. I came home to a happy, healthy and (thankfully) tired out puppy. If you want to book someone to care for your dog like their own, Kaitlyn is the perfect choice!!”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover dedicated to providing safe, loving, and reliable care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cozy check-ins, your pup will be treated like family. You can count on me to be attentive, trustworthy, and always on time. I am a teacher, so the summer days will give me plenty of the free time I need to give dogs walks, play time, or drop-ins. I follow your pet’s usual routine for meals, walks, playtime, and rest to help them feel secure. I keep water bowls full, maintain clean spaces, and give plenty of affection and attention. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, tidy, and make sure your pet gets the care they’re used to—plus lots of tail wags!

About: Dogs have been a part of my heart and home for as long as I can remember. I adopted my first dog, a spirited Jack Russell-Boston Terrier mix, in 2005, and when I got married, I happily welcomed my husband’s senior boxer into our family. A few years later, an unplanned encounter led us to adopt another boxer puppy—we couldn’t resist her charm! Over the years, our family grew, adding four kids into the mix alongside our beloved dogs. Losing my own dog in 2019 and our boxer shortly after my youngest was born was incredibly hard, but it deepened my appreciation for the unconditional love and joy dogs bring. I was the first in my family to welcome a dog into our lives, and since then, I’ve inspired my sisters and even nieces and nephews to do the same. Though I can’t currently have a dog in my home as a single mom with four little ones, I deeply miss the companionship and connection dogs provide. Caring for your dog would be an honor, and I promise to treat them with the same love and attention I’ve given my own. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or playtime, your furry family member will be in caring hands. I’m a newly single mom of four young children. As a stay-at-home parent, I care for my toddler during the day while my three older kids are in school. This allows me to have a flexible schedule that works around their school hours and extracurricular activities. I understand how important it is to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to care for your dog in your home, following all your instructions to keep their routine consistent and familiar. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member gets the attention and care they deserve. I also recognize that dogs can sometimes feel anxious when their parents aren’t around. I’ll do everything I can to ease their worries and keep them calm, using the tips and guidance you provide. If any unexpected messes happen, I’ll handle them promptly and ensure your home stays clean and tidy. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind and ensure your dog feels loved and cared for while you’re away.

“Margaret is the best sitter we have ever had. She is thorough, thoughtful, and kind. She goes above and beyond. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”


About: I have taken care of dogs most of my life. I have had cats all my life. I pet sit for my parents all the time after having lived with them for most of the time that they have had their dogs. I have always had multiple pets. I feed, walk, bathe, give meds, and clean up after pets. I currently work full time, but have the time and flexibly to work from home several times a week with gives me the time to work on other things. I am also available on weekends and evenings. I have a great space for your pet to run with both grass and fenced in areas. I also can crate your pet if needed.

“Kate was super with our big dog Rio!”


“Melissa visited Muddy for a drop-in visit. They quickly became best friends. After Muddy took care of a “nature call”, he came back in the house and showed Melissa all of his wonderful toys that his mom and dad buy (mostly, mom). Finally, Muddy went up on the couch and they chilled for a while before Melissa told Muddy it was time for her to leave. He eagerly went back into his crate and was glad that he got a big cookie and a kong to amuse himself with. He said if mom and dad have to leave him, he’d be thrilled to have Melissa come in to see him. Melissa is Muddy-approved!”

About: I’ve had two dogs in my life. One really big and one really small. Always walked the dog for my parents after school everyday. At this point in my life, I am very good with pets and can definitely give them a great walk. Available Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday at mostly any time period. Tuesday and Thursdays would need to be any time before 12. Very flexible with times. I am very aware of my surroundings and can ensure your house will be in better shape than you left it too. Plus I have all the treats and toys a dog could ask for and will make it my duty to take care of your dog.

Megan M.
“Megan has been pet sitting us for over 7 years now and I've never met a more passionate, dedicated and conscientious young woman, especially when it comes to dogs. She loves them, and they absolutely adore her! I really think that our lab, who is normally glued to my husband's side, could care less about him once Megan shows up. I'm the dog mom you hear about. I never wanted kids, only dogs. They are my love and my life. So, I guess the best compliment I could give would be to tell you that my husband and I went on two different two-week vacations, and although I can't say I didn't think about my dogs during that time, I never once worried, knowing that Megan was with them and watching over them. More so than the destination or the things we did, Megan made that vacation as wonderful as it was because I knew I didn't have to worry about how things were at home.”

Victoria is always conscious of the dogs needs and makes sure they are taken care of.

This includes taking Josie for walks, feeding her, bathing her, and playing ball with her in our yard. When Daniel left for college Josie missed him so much she spent every day sleeping on his bed. Daniel is very skilled and responsible in caring for our dog. Daniel's love and care for our dog would make him a great fit for taking care of your dog.”

Super reliable. My dog, who is always nervous around new people, loved her instantly! Will definitely be my go-to person for everything going forward!

Sumona helped with a last-minute booking. She was friendly and communicated well. I was happy to come home and find my dog happy and content. She sent photos during her visit, which put me at ease. Hope to work with her again!
