“My pups quickly befriended Karolina and were nice and calm when we got home. House was in good condition. I would definitely use Karolina again. She did a great job caring for them.”



“We could not be much picker then most when it comes to who is watching our dog. This was our first-time using Rover, we spoke to a couple people and then met Roxanne. She had a lot of experience with older dogs, she was professional and paid attention to our needs for our Eva from day one and remembered them all when came for our first getaway for the day. Roxanne took great care of Eva, took for a couple walks, fed her and just made her feel like a friend was hanging out with her (she didn’t day that, but I just know it) ?. So now we are planning or vacation for a week away and plan on Roxanne being our good to sitter for Eva.”

“Sara was terrific! Last minute on my part and we were able to talk it through and work it out! I would definitely hire Sara again. She is very professional. It turns out she is close to my home, so I am considering taking my dog, to Sara's day care, to become more socialized. Thank you Sara.”


“They did an excellent job and were very communicative!”


“My Yorkie is 15-1/2 years old and has issues. I wanted someone to come to my home and stay so Tezzie could stay in her comfort zone. Rachael was wonderful. She took excellent care of my dog and my home. She sent texts and pictures daily so I was always aware of how things were going. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a dog/house sitter. So happy I found her on Rover.”


“I came home and it’s like I never left! My old dog and cat were happy and comfortable, they had a great time with Grace! She was great at communication and sent me pics and video, I knew my pets were in good hands. I would 100% hire Grace again and recommend her to others!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life.I had a cat for 12 years having all the responsibilities everyday. Family members would make me the designated pet sitter if they went on vacation because of how much their pets liked me. I like to play with them going on runs, walks, and more! I have plenty of time to hang out with your furry friends my summer is free until I start college in the fall and would love to get exercise while hanging out with them. I have a fenced backyard and a decent sized yard with a park right down the street my house is very open for them to have their own space.

“Kayle was a phenomenal sitter for Bronson. She went above and beyond by making multiple trips each day to ensure Bronson was happy. I returned to a happy dog and very clean home 😊 This was my first time using these services and was nervous due to Bronson's additional care requirements but Kayle was a Rockstar in providing care. She helped provide some best practices for caring for a senior dog with physical disabilities and I am very grateful to have someone who sought to not only help during the booking but to help his senior years be as full of life as possible. I would absolutely recommend Kayle to anyone in need of services and will seek her out if I am in need of a sitter for Bronson in the future.”


“Charity did a wonderful job watching our two larger dogs while we were away for the weekend! She is super communicative, clean, caring, and thorough. We felt especially confident with her being a vet assistant and having a lot of animal experience. Thank you again, Charity!”


“Cannon was wonderful with Luna and was very reliable and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Cannon for pet sitting!”


“Shyla was INCREDIBLE! I have a very demanding cat, Tiny and was extremely nervous about leaving her as I had never left her for that long. Shyla was amazing at housesitting for over two weeks, providing frequent updates and photos and was able to develop a bond with Tiny. Normally Tiny is angry when I come home from trips, but this time she seemed happy which was just an amazing thing to return to. Highly recommend Shyla, she is the best❤️”


“Isabelle did a great job with our very challenging handful! She’s very kind and patient and was easy to talk to. If she’s open to it, we’d definitely have her watch Buda again.”


“Karla was amazing with our two dogs! She made us feel so comfortable right from the get-go and really let us know our pups were in good hands. She was great about pictures and updates and we came home to happy, healthy dogs and a clean, well taken care of house. We would definitely recommend her!!”

“Jeff was the best petsitter we have had - he stepped in right away when I was in a schedule pinch, he followed directions to a T, he kept in contact to let us know everyone was doing well, he shared how much he enjoyed the doggos, and when we arrived home the house was immaculate, smelled nice, and the dogs were relaxed and happy. I didn't get to meet him in person beforehand, and he is definitely someone you can trust if you have to do the same.”
