“Presley did an incredible job watching my 6 animals. The house was super clean and everyone was so happy and seemed well taken care of when I got home. I will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Thank you so much for watching over our babies. I felt super comfortable since we did do a meet and greet before the actual babysitting. She sent pictures every day and we really did feel like they were in great hands. Will definitely book again.❤️🙏🏼”

About: I own my own cat sanctuary, I feed an army of stray cats in my backyard. I have fostered newborn kittens. I was also a dog bather for a little over a year. I have full flexibility and availability in my schedule, I am currently unemployed looking to make this my full time job. I can come over at any time of the day. In a clients house I will feed the animal and let them go outside/walk them. Make sure your pet didn’t make any accidents in the house and clean up any mess that is made. I will also make sure your cuddly friend gets lots of attention and love.
“Tracy communicated well and took good care of our home and dogs. We appreciated the photos while we were away! Also, she provided us with a list at the end of the stay of things she noticed or wanted us to be aware of while she was staying at our home. So thorough and thoughtful!”
“Alison is a very loving and dependable pet caretaker. She responds daily with updates and photos, and responds quickly to all of our needs. She has not only taken out dog to the vet while we were away, but also stayed an extra night when our plane was delayed. We felt very secure knowing that she was taking care of our 2 dogs while we were on vacation.”
“Victoria was great with my pup. She sent pictures throughout the day, took her on a long walk and out to go potty. She was attentive and loving and willing to work on the crate training we are doing. Will definitely use her again!”
“Fynch has anxiety and Dina worked with him to gain his trust. She sent me pictures regularly as well. She left the house clean, including taking out the trash before leaving. I've never used this service before but I very well may in the future!”
“I can’t express enough how wonderful Stephanie was in caring for our dog, Biscuit, and our home during the Thanksgiving holiday week. From our initial meet and greet, Stephanie impressed me by bringing treats for Biscuit and taking detailed notes. As it was our first time leaving Biscuit with a dogsitter, I was admittedly anxiously…but Stephanie did an exceptional job and cleared any worries I may have had after day one! She was highly communicative and prompt in her responses. She sent us daily pictures and videos of Biscuit. It was clear that Biscuit quickly warmed up to her and enjoyed her company. Stephanie left our home immaculate and even tended to our plants. She went above and beyond in her care. She truly exceeded my expectations of a dogsitter. I am grateful for her service and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Gretchen did amazing with our dog! Lots of picture updates and she took him on many adventures! It was so nice to not be worried about our very anxious puppy while on vacation. We would definitely ask Gretchen to watch tucker again.”
“Madison was outstanding in providing care for our 65 lb. Bernedoodle Stella. Madison gave us regular updates with photos & video and responded quickly when we had a question. We highly recommend Madison! Thank you for the great care you provided!”
“Emily has watched Lulu numerous times, and every visit has been flawless. We are extremely comfortable with leaving Lulu in Emily’s care. Lulu has become super comfortable with Emily.”

“Not sure who liked her more our dog or us!!! Sammie is amazing! Followed the directions for our dog down to the very finest detail. She communicates often and clearly and took care of everything we needed. We highly recommend Sammie and will calling her in the future!”
“Andres was amazing with Grover, my 15 year old Shih Tzu while I was away. He sent me pictures and videos daily and checked in often. I was very nervous about leaving Grover because he is on specific medications, but Andres was great at following the schedule. I would definitely have Andres look after Grover again, anytime, if needed. Thank you Andres, you are the BEST!”
“Adriane was an incredible pet sitter! Upon meeting her, I knew she'd be a good fit for our pup. She was very kind and down to earth. She communicated well and provided daily updates while sitting for us. We came home to a clean house and a happy pup. I would easily hire her again to care for Clove.”
“Nellie was absolutely wonderful. She stayed at my house with my dog and sent me pictures everyday. She took exquisite care of my dog and my home!! I am so grateful I found her. She was perfect.”
“Jenna and Aaron did a great job watching our two dogs. I received pictures and updates when requested and came back to a tidy house and well cared for dogs. We will likely use them again in the future.”

We had Kayla housesit for us for over a week. She made sure to communicate and send pictures regularly, which helped us feel good about being so far from home. She was great with our cat and dog. It was clear that she enjoys spending time with animals and made sure our little creatures were played with and given plenty of attention. She was very responsible with the house and went above and beyond to make sure everything was easy for us when we got home. Thank you, Kayla!
We’re so glad we found Elizabeth! We felt at ease leaving the dogs with them because they are caring. They sent updates, pictures, and videos of our dogs which gave us peace of mind. We were a little bit worried because one of our dogs is a rescue who does not trust people immediately, but he felt so comfortable with Elizabeth and they were great with him. We’re lucky to have found Elizabeth on rover and hope to have them watch our dogs again in the future! Thank you Elizabeth!
I can’t say enough good things about Adriane! I was out of the country for two weeks and she took such good care of Charlie. She shared updates and photos every day. He had recently lost his brother and had never been apart from him in almost 12 years. It was also the longest time I’ve ever left him so I was extremely anxious about leaving him. Our flight was also delayed an extra day and she was flexible and offered to stay until we returned. The house was immaculate when we returned as well. It was so nice to be able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about Charlie. Adriane will always be my first choice for a sitter from now on.
Laurie stayed with our two yellow labs for 10 days and nights. She has always been very responsive since the first time we reached out to her. I loved getting her updates and pictures of the boys while we had to be away from them. As our travel plans experienced some uncertainty, she was as flexible as possible. I am confident our furry kids we well cared for in our absence, which makes it so much easier when we are not able to take them with us.
Hannah took excellent care of my 3 pets while I was away. She walked my dog multiple times a day and offered to help even on the day I returned. She sent me lots of pictures and made sure I was in the know of what was going on with my animals and home. My house was also in excellent shape and felt like she was super considerate with her stay!! Thank Hannah!
I was so nervous to leave my pups for the first time with a sitter. However, I was so happy and pleasantly surprised to have Kayla as our dog sitter for the first time. She spent so much time with the puppies and was very attentive to their needs. Sending lots of pictures while we were on vacation. I will absolutely be using her hopefully in the future if she’s available. I would highly recommend her to anybody who wants somebody who will truly care for their animals.
