“I can't recommend Elisha enough! She is a natural when it comes to our fur babies. I have two dogs, a Boxer and a German Shepard and they completely fell in love with her immediately. I was so comfortable while I was gone knowing my babies were in good hands, especially after receiving the daily updates and adorable pictures!!!! We will definitely be using Elisha again.”
“Sarah has been incredible with our puppy. She always goes out of her way to fit Ares into her schedule, even when she already has other visits booked, which we truly appreciate. She takes him on multiple walks, keeps me updated throughout the day, and makes sure he gets plenty of exercise. We absolutely trust her with him and are so grateful for the care and attention she provides. 🩵”
“Wonderful service! ❤️ Jayla was super sweet and our dog Knox loved her! Thankful for all her help and I recommend her to anyone needing help with their pets. We will definitely use again for future visits. Thank you so much! 😊”
About: I’ve had dogs of my own for the last 14 years. Walking, feeding, and playing is a part of my daily routine. I have some experience with senior dogs who need pills, eye drops, or ear drops. I do work full time so most of my availability time will be in the early mornings, evenings or any time on Fridays and Saturdays. I will take care of your dog as if they were my own. Safety is key with our four legged friends so if they need to be crated or have specific instructions for walking, I will ensure they will be followed.
“Kate was amazing! Her introduction a week prior to our needing her was key. She is chill, honest, reliable and so loving! I’m pretty sure our Forty loves her more now! I should also mention she watched our house as well and left it spotless! Mad respect! We will be using Kate again! Thank you so much Kate!”
“Ashley is truly amazing with Ares! She not only arrives on time, but immediately jumps into caring for him — taking him on multiple walks, heading to the dog park first in the morning, play time, and keeps up with his scheduled routine. She also sends me multiple videos and photos throughout the day with important updates. We absolutely love having her watch our puppy!🩵”
“Chevy was amazing helping me out with my 3 babies last minute over Memorial Day weekend. They kept me well updated the entire time, and I could tell my babies were happy and well cared for. I really appreciated the communication and peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Laura was absolutely fantastic! We had never left our dog before and were pretty nervous since she’s a rescue and can be shy. Laura was amazing! She won Lilly over quickly and kept us updated the whole time with lots of messages and photos. We felt so at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. We would book with her again in a heartbeat! Truly so thankful for her and highly recommend her!!”
“Blaise and Kendall were great with Betty. This was our first time using them after a recent move to a new part of town. It was comforting finding someone so close to home. They left our home in great shape. The bread and treats were a great gesture also. Will be using again.”
“Brian really went out of his way to make sure our huskies had a fabulous time while he was pet sitting for us. Not only did he offer to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure they would both be comfortable with him staying with them in our home while we went out of town, but he was also very sensitive to and accommodating towards our dogs’ separation anxiety and took extra time with them to make sure they were feeling lots of love and security with us out of the house. He truly is a top notch pet sitter and he also has quite a gift when it comes to photography! The photos he sent us throughout his time watching our pups were studio quality and you can really tell that he has a passion for what he does. Not only did he take wonderful care of our dogs but he also even fed some of the neighborhood birds that usually come visit our backyard throughout the day. His calming demeanor was perfect for our anxious pups and his attention to detail in following all of our instructions both in terms of medication management for the pups and special considerations for the house as a whole were second to none. You can rest assured that if you are looking for a great pet sitter that you need not look any further than Brian!!! You might even find that he goes the extra mile by feeding your neighborhood crows, putting your trash/recycling cans out when he noticed it was collection day, and bringing in packages from outside your front door. Plus he is very neat and tidy which is a huge bonus when he leaves the space looking better than he found it in every room he walks through. Definitely a 5 star rating if I have ever seen one!!!”
“David was an excellent dog sitter for our two dogs. When he sent photos they looked so relaxed which is such a plus when you are leaving your dogs with someone. Thank you again for taking care of them!”
“Victoria was wonderful with Ludo. She was quick to respond and had great communication throughout, along with sending a picture update. She followed his care instructions and asked questions to clarify his puppy routine. I would be happy to book with her again and I would recommend her to anyone seeking care for their pet.”
“Second time hiring Parker, and he's great. He handled taking care of our house and three dogs (including a JRT puppy) extremely well. I would recommend Parker to anyone looking for a dog/house sitter.”
“I can't say enough great things about Kyle as a sitter! From the moment I met him, I could tell he has a genuine love for animals. He really took the time to get to know my cat Ryuu and I felt completely confident leaving her in his care. During my time away, Kyle sent tons of photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease and showed me how good of a time my Ryuu was having with him and Jax. He even went above and beyond when it came to being accommodating about changes to travel plans and extending Ryuu’s stay. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and reliable pet sitter. He truly loves what he does, and it shows in every interaction. 5 stars all the way (If i could give him 6 stars I would 😂)”
“Alycia is AMAZING with our Georgia girl 🐶! She is one of the few I can trust with our fur baby. Alycia is reliable, caring, and keeps me updated with photos and messages while I am away. Georgia loves her dates with Alycia! She is happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for the entire time. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Georgia is in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Alycia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
“Maggie was great with our pups and made sure to send pictures and updates. She was especially carinh with our pup Bruce who gets extremely nervous and upset with thunderstorms. Definitely Recommend Maggie for all your pet sitting needs and we have already rebooked her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. They have always been part of my family. I am very reliable and know how important it is to have peace of mind when we can’t be with our pups. I currently work part-time during the week and I am available on weekends to care for your pup. I am flexible for last-minute emergencies or any help you may need. I am available to watch your pup in your home, can walk them according to you and your pup’s preferences. Happy to help give you peace of mind and your pup lots of love and care.

Amanda is the best rover experience I’ve ever had. We have a skiddish rescue named Laila & she’s never bonded so quickly with a stranger! Both of my fur babes fell so in love with her! I had complete peace while I was away. I even came home to a vacuumed home & fresh flowers!
Chevy was amazing helping me out with my 3 babies last minute over Memorial Day weekend. They kept me well updated the entire time, and I could tell my babies were happy and well cared for. I really appreciated the communication and peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!
Lyndsey has been such an incredible sitter for Ares and truly holds a special place in our hearts. She has been the most consistent, caring, and dependable person we’ve trusted with him since he was a puppy. She always keeps us updated with photos and detailed messages, makes sure he gets plenty of attention and exercise, and genuinely treats him like her own. Ares absolutely adores her, and we couldn’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate to care for their pets. 🐾🩵
If you’re in need of a sitter that will go above and beyond for your pets, book Lauren!! It is clear that she is very passionate about animals and I couldn’t recommend her more!! She provided wonderful care to my baby Georgie girl, playing with her for extensive amounts of time and sent plenty of pics and vids! She even made sure the house was nice and fresh when I got back from my trip. 10/10 would absolutely recommend!
My pets love Cole when he comes to visit and stay. I can tell that be treats them well because of how excited they are to see him each time. He is great at sending photo updates and letting us know of their silly behaviors. There was one day where Cole got held up at work and my dog was in her crate for about 8 hours (we try to only keep her in there for 4 hours at a time). Cole was apologetic when I asked about it. We also understand that things happen, as we are also Rover pet sitters ourselves.
Amelia did an amazing job with our Daisey Mae. Daisey doesn't usually warm up to people, but from the very first moment of our meet-n-greet through the stay, Daisey loved on her. From now on, we will call Amelia the "Daisey Mae Whisper", because of her magic that she had over Daisey.
As always, Brandy takes great care of our beagle, Maggie. She communicates well with us regarding her care, and follows all of our written instructions. She watches Maggie in our home & is always on time for her scheduled sitting, and I can trust her in our home. I look forward to using Brandy in the future for more dog sitting dates.
