“Alex watched my dog overnight at my house while I was on a short work trip. I typically leave Oso with family when I have to go away, and last time I used a different sitter I had a bad experience, so I was hesitant to leave him overnight. But Alex was professional and I knew Oso was in good hands. Came home to a happy dog. Thank you!!”

“We absolutely give Stefanie 5 stars without hesitation. She is a great communicator, she handled our high energy dog beautifully and she left the house immaculate. We highly recommend her and will engage her again if needed.”

She took care of our four dogs for five days in our home, and they were showered with love and attention. We received daily updates and photos, which was such a nice touch. Coming home to a spotless house and happy pups was a delight. Thank you, Rachel! We truly appreciate everything you did!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life and have the time and flexibility now to help take care of yours! I am excited to help and meet your pets. I currently do not have a job so I have a very flexible schedule to take care of your pets! I am open to help with whatever your pets need. I live in a condo with my dog and cat. I also have a XL crate if needed. I live in a neighborhood that has plenty of places to walk your dog safely with room to roam and explore.
About: I've owned dogs and cats since I was ten. I currently have three dogs (one of whom is a senior dog) and two cats. I love walking any dogs and playing in the backyard with them. I've been a volunteer at Last Chance Ranch in Quakertown for the past two years, during which I work with dogs who are happy and wiggly and those who are hesitant, sick or scared. I'm also a mom of two students, an honor student entering college and an honor athlete entering her junior year (so I know how to raise kids too!! :-) ) I look forward to taking care of your babies like I take care of my own. I'm a high school teacher, who can be free to come to your house as of 3pm for walks or to take care of your babies. I am available most weekends. I will follow any requests of the owners, but definitely enjoy a good walk with puppies (all dogs are puppies in my world). Cuddles and talks with your animal are essential to helping them feel safe while mom and dad are away. Your babies and home will be in good hands with me.
“Brian took great care of our Gracie and our home. Gracie is very energetic 2 year old. Brian walked her at least 3 times a day as well as playing with her. He sent us many photos which helped us greatly as this was our first trip away from Gracie. He was very attentive to her. We will definitely hire Brian again for our next trip if he is available.”
“Justin was easy to communicate with, and took great care of our dog - he sent us several photos during the house stay, and was very accommodating when we had to shift our schedule. We’d happily hire him again! Our pup had a great time with Justin.”
“Brooke was awesome, as usual. She sent daily photos or videos of the dogs and kept us updated on their day. Once we got home , the house was as we left it and she had even done extra things (get mail, take out trash, wash sheets) that we hadn’t expected her to do. I would recommend her to watch your dogs and/or house. She’s very reliable and trustworthy.”
About: I grew up with a chihuahua who was part of our family for 11 years, and I currently help care for our 4-year-old rescued Australian shepherd/pit bull mix. I especially enjoy going on walks and getting to know each dog’s personality while hanging out. I graduated from UW–Madison in May and am currently in my gap year before starting medical school. While I’m applying for a gap year job, my schedule is pretty flexible on both weekdays and weekends right now! I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog who loves having company. He’s free to roam the house during the day and sleeps in a crate at night. I’m happy to follow a routine that works best for your dog.
About: I have owned cats a dogs! I am going to grad school for ABA therapy, which is where clicker training (often used on dogs) is derived from. I have worked with pets of all ages- I am a great fit for active animals- it would be my pleasure to walk or run with your pet! In summer of 2025 I have free time on everyday except Wednesdays and Fridays (and some small weekend trips). Come fall- I hope to be starting a new full time job- but would still be available on weekends and evenings! I am dependable and reliable. If I make a commitment nothing stops me from getting there. I will not be afraid to ask questions to make sure your pet gets the best care possible! My job is to make your life easier and that is what i intend to do. If interested I will provide picture of your pet while they are in my care. Look forward to meeting you and your pet!
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m available and interested in helping with pet or house sitting! I work full-time Monday to Friday, so I’m best suited for evenings, overnights, and weekends. If you’re planning a trip or just need an extra hand with your pets or home, I’d love to help out! I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care. I follow your instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine consistent, and always ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while you’re away.

“Rosari is a top notch baby( cats dogs frogs and parrots) sitter. Rosari went above and beyond caring for my fur babies and engaging with all three. Rosari is very kind and gentle with my fur babies. Rosari was kind enough to send adorable pictures and send updates. The babies all looked very happy. Thank you. Rosari left the house spotless and provided fresh water and treats for my babies. There are not enough kind things I can say. Myself and fur babies are very happy. I would definitely hire Rosari to watch my priceless babies again. We hope to see you again. I would highly recommend. Thank you for all your help and kindness.”
“Kathleen was absolutely fantastic! We had a short notice need for a dog sitter to spend 2 days with our very nervous dog and she jumped right in and helped us out big time! She was so wonderful with our dog and was able to keep her relaxed while we were gone!!”

New Britain pet parents share their Rover experiences
Can’t say enough about the excellent level of attentive care Marisa provided pet sitting for our older Lab who is very set in his ways. Her daily updates and timely responses left us very comfortable that he was in good hands and doing well during our absence. Thanks again Marisa…
Amy did a wonderful job taking care of my kitty while we were away for a long weekend. She came by twice each day and made sure to send me a message or picture everytime she stopped by. I really appreciated her communication and making sure our kitty was well taken care of when we were away

We are so grateful to have found Samantha on Rover! My shepherd mix, Dakota, warmed up to her without any hesitation. Samantha was great at communicating with us both in planning and while we were away. I knew Dakota was being very well cared for! We came home to a clean house and a very happy pup. I’ll certainly be reaching out to Samantha again, and strongly recommend her!
Maeve is a lifesaver for anxious pups (and their stressed owners!) Let me start by saying Maeve is an absolute godsend! This was our first time using a dog sitter and we were incredibly nervous. Bella, our two-year-old mixed breed (think tiny chihuahua with a dash of drama queen) is a bundle of love, but can be anxious, especially with new people and in new environments. We recently separated and Bella went from a bustling house with two parents and a canine sibling to a much smaller apartment with just me. The change has been stressful for both of us, and separation anxiety is a real struggle. We were worried sick about leaving Bella alone for even a minute, let alone with someone new. Enter Maeve! From the moment she arrived, Maeve exuded a calmness that instantly put Bella (and me!) at ease. Although there might have been some initial barking (Bella's way of saying hello!), Maeve's patience and genuine love for dogs won Bella over in no time. After a short period of getting acquainted, Maeve had Bella playing and enjoying her company. This allowed me to leave the apartment for the first time in weeks without constant worry. It was incredibly freeing! Here's why Maeve is a superstar sitter: Calm and patient: A perfect antidote to our anxious pup! Dog savvy: Knows how to build trust and create a fun environment. Reliable and communicative: Kept us updated and put our minds at ease. If you have a dog with separation anxiety or any nervousness around new people, Maeve is the sitter for you. She'll give your furry friend the love and attention they need, and allow you some much-needed peace of mind. We can't wait to have Maeve watch Bella again soon! Five out of five stars, no question!
