“Meghan did a great job caring for our dog while we were away for the weekend I would definitely recommend her and plan to use her again in the future.”
“We had Kaylee watch our two dogs while we were on vacation for a week. The communication, pictures, and constant updates put our minds at ease. You could tell that our dogs were loved and cared for. Whether you are out for multiple days, or just a drop in visit, Kaylee is your girl!”
“Great sitter! Pups were very happy! It was some time ago but just logged back on and noticed I didn’t leave a review. Will definitely use Gabrielle again.”
“Emma was amazing with our senior (but unruly) dog while we were on vacation. She stayed in our home and was an extremely respectful houseguest. She even took out the trash and started the laundry, which I never would have expected! She was a clear communicator and asked plenty of questions to make sure she understood the needs of our dog. She learned the ins and outs of our tricky pinch collar, and followed the very particular feeding schedule of our needy dog. She sent pics to keep me in the loop and it was such a relief to not have to worry about my baby being left alone while we traveled. Will definitely be using again!”
“Scott took such great care of our two pups when we were out of town. We are so grateful we were able to book his services at the last minute. We got consistent updates on how our pups were doing while we were gone and we could tell they were nice and relaxed and were able to spend a lot of their time outside. We really hope to book his services again soon!”
“Erica was great! Our girl went in to heat the day before we were supposed to leave. Erica not only took on the challenge confidently but calmed our nerves with consistent updates of the extra care she provided.”
“Zack was great. Ralf was happy and we felt comfortable leaving him. House was in great condition when we got home. Zack will be our go to sitter.”
“Dogs loved Nicole and she did great with them! The dogs can be a handful with high energy, but Nicole matched their needs and spent a lot of time outside playing. We are grateful to have Nicole as a sitter and we will have her back soon!”
“super friendly and help us last minute.”
“Arielle was very sweet and my puppy took to her right away. Arielle was very responsive whenever I texted and she also proactively sent photos and updates while we were away. In addition, she left the house spotless and even washed the bedding on the guestroom bed and remade it before we arrived home. Really great service. Definitely recommend.”
“Krissy took great care of Otis while my wife and I were out of town. Regular updates, accommodated his picky eating habits, lots of walks and love. 10/10 would recommend for all pet/house sitting needs!”
About: Ever since I was a kid, I've been a pet lover at heart. Whether it's cats, dogs, or any animals big and small, my love for them knows no bounds! I absolutely enjoy spending quality time with furry friends and making sure they're happy. Through Rover, I'm excited to help take care of your pets while you're away, ensuring they feel loved and secure. Can't wait to meet your fur pets! Feel free to contact me to discuss schedule details. I work from home, which allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine. This flexibility ensures I have plenty of time for interactive play and attentive care, providing your pet with the companionship they need. I maintain a clean and welcoming home environment, which is perfect for ensuring your pet feels comfortable and safe. I live in a safe neighborhood, providing an excellent setting for enjoyable and secure dog walks.
“Rebecca was fantastic! She sent regular updates and adorable photos of our dog, making us feel at ease while away for 8 days. Our home was clean upon our return, and our dog was happy and well-cared for! She went out of her way to coordinate with us having a contractor in our home for some work. Highly recommend, we will be using Rebecca again!”
“Natali was great. She was great with my dog Charlie, easy to work with and I felt completely comfortable having her house sit. I would use her again!”
About: I have taken care of many breeds of dogs, including ones needing behavioral training. I am always living with some type of animal and have 2 spoiled cats of my own! I am currently working part time. Feel free to reach out and we can figure out a schedule that works for both you and me! My career has been husbandry of a variety of animals, therefore it is of the utmost importance to me that an animal feels safe and happy in their environment in order to thrive.
About: I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish. I can help with feeding, walking, grooming, and giving medications. I make sure dogs get enough exercise and rest based on their energy level. For cats, I keep them comfortable and entertained while respecting their space. I’ve also looked after small animals and fish tanks. My main focus is making sure pets are safe, happy, and comfortable, and I always follow the owner’s instructions and provide updates. I’m currently studying online, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. My daily routine includes feeding, walking, and playing with them, ensuring they get the attention they need. I am available for pet care and boarding from Monday to Friday. Pet Sitting/Boarding: Regular feeding, playtime, medication, and monitoring health. Dog Walking: Providing exercise, socialization, and safety. Bathing, brushing, and checking for skin issues. General Care: Clean environment, proper food.
About: Since the age of 8 I have been around and raised all kinds of animals. Cats, dogs, ducks (hatched and raised) , rabbits, hamsters, turtles, frogs, guinea pigs. I have lots of patience (I have 2 human babies and 3 fur babies haha), lots of love and lots of experience! I currently work part time (I make my own schedule) and would be able to fit in pet care whenever it is needed by the pet parent. I have a fenced in backyard, I am a current home owner so no need to worry about any apartment building neighbors. I have a very loving pup who would love to have a friend over at our house! If owner feels more comfortable with me going to their house alone, that is also more than okay as well! Whatever makes YOU feel most comfortable, I am here to do!
About: I work for a fitness/wellness company and am doing this on the side for fun. I love animals and regularly foster dogs but can't commit to getting a dog of my own just yet! I normally have a foster dog for around 4-6 weeks at a time. I also grew up with cats so I'm very comfortable with both cats and dogs (any size). I'm happy to pet sit, walk dogs and house sit. I have a flexible work from home schedule and love any excuse to get outside! I have a very flexible work from home schedule so I can make most appointments work! I love getting out throughout the day as well. I’m happy to follow whatever guidelines you provide for your pet in home. I’m also very experienced walking dogs of various sizes and training levels.
“Nancy was the best. She dog/house-sat for us for 10 days and not only did she go out of her way, last minute, to overnight our forgotten passports (we hopped from FL to MX), she also took the dogs on daily walks and even field trips, cleaned the floors, did the linens in our guest room after she slept there, created her own Netflix profile (which is genius - I need to do it for our other streaming services), and left us home baked banana bread upon our return. If I could give more stars, I would.”
About: My dog is now 17 years so I have pet care experience in all stages of life! I also have experience with small and large dogs. I am loving and patient and ready to care for your pup or cat! I am my pets caretaker almost daily. Occasionally I watch my neighbors or extended family’s pets on the weekends or (less often) weekdays. I love animals so it’s a great part of my daily routine. I frequently take the pets outside and provide lots of love and play time! I make sure the pets are safe and secure in the environment, and hazards are out of the way.

She was great and gave updates while I was away, would highly recommend!”
16. Adelia S.
“she arrives 5 minutes before and always walks 5-10 minutes longer than the paid time. Adelia became very friendly with my dog, I haven't been able to run with Lucky for a long time, lucky breaks free from the leash and runs away, Adelia ran with my dog even though I said you could just pull off the leash and make her walk next to you, but when my dog broke free and ran away from my hands, she was able to jump over fences and catch Lucky”
17. Julia W.
“Julia is such an amazing young woman. She is genuine and reliable and just a really great person. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will 100% be having her stay with our fur babies again. It is such a peaceful feeling knowing that both your babies and your home are well cared for while you are away. My cats are not very friendly, but there is something about Julia that completely changed that in them, at least when it came to her. They totally love her!! It is probably because of her calm and patient manner with them. Thank you again for everything Julia!”
