“Maricela is so wonderful with our dogs! She is such a thoughtful house guest as well and was an excellent communicator about what she and the dogs were doing. We’ll definitely work with her again!”


“Jonas was very accommodating to our dogs needs. She was well cared for and we were kept well informed with lots of pictures of daily activities. They kept the house in great condition as well- even watered our many flower boxes and plants. Would definitely use Jonas again”


“Jeanelle took great care of our girl Gretchen while we were out of town for a few days. Very communicative with us and attentive to our pup. Highly recommend!”


“Craig and Chelsea did an amazing job house sitting and caring for our 3 energetic Vizslas! The communication and pictures were wonderful, it made it much easier being away from our pups. I highly recommend them!!!”


“Ayreal is a fantastic house sitter. Not only does she take great care of our young lab puppy, she also takes great care of our home for us. Cannot recommend her enough and will continue to use her in the future!”


“So thankful for Felicia! She truly is top notch and takes such good care of our sassy pup!! Our doggie is very selective to whom she likes and she loves Felicia ! That speaks for itself!!! 10000% recommend!”


“We immediately felt comfortable with Alexa being in our home and were confident she would take great care of the pets, which she did! Sammy loved her the second she walked through the door. This was the first time in the 7 years of owning pets together have we had anyone but family take care of them, and are so thrilled that we finally found Rover, and Alexa. We now can plan more summer trips knowing the fur babies and the house will be in great hands! 100% recommend!”


“Meghan stayed at our house during our vacation and was great with our older, anxious dog. We left a long list of detailed notes and she carried out everything task we asked, including giving med to Paco and filling birdfeeders. We came home to a clean house (always appreciated). I highly recommend Meghan and hope we can have her return in the future.”


About: I’ve been caring for animals most of my life. I grew up with a dog and a rabbit, and I’m now a proud dog mom to two wonderful pups, Mola and Edwin. I understand how much love and attention pets need because I give it every day! I also regularly dog sit and walk for friends and family, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and routines. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or simply making your pet feel safe and loved, I’m here to help. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM, but I’m available for late afternoon, and evening visits during the week. I’m also open and flexible on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. If you’re looking for someone dependable outside of standard work hours, I’m happy to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t offer boarding in my home, I’m committed to providing reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment or through drop-ins and walks. I always follow your instructions carefully and treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own dogs. You can trust that your furry friend will be safe, respected, and well-cared-for every step of the way.

“Makalah is our first pet sitter from Rover. We hired her for house sitting so that she could care for our dog and cat in the comfort of their own home. We have had friends and family take care of the pets, but we’ve never had someone come spend the night. Makalah did an amazing job with both our pets. She bonded instantly with our cat and as she said, He’s my bestie! Our dog is 13 years old and requires more care, as he takes seizure medication three times a day. Makalah took on this responsibility and she made sure she let me know when she gave him his meds. Makalah’s communication with me throughout the day and night was great. She also sent pictures of both pets along with an update on how things were going. I am so glad I decided to take a chance with Rover and with Makalah. We will definitely be calling in her to care for our pets again.”


About: I’ve been talking care of all types of dogs since I was 10. Started small with just family and around the neighborhood but as I got older I’ve had many people ask for me to pet sit or just bring their dog for a walk. Give their animal some love! I’m currently working a part time job and enrolled in college for nursing so college breaks and holidays work best for me. Although, come summer I will be able to have more flexibility due to not being away at college. Always wanting to get exercise and play with animals so if walking your dog or checking in is what you need then I’m the perfect person for that. I have an invisible fence that my puppy Lola uses. She is super friendly but very vocal. I’m in a safe neighborhood where animals are well loved. My backyard is huge with lots of space to run and a great pool that my dog loves to swim in. If we are at your home then I will make sure I am aware of the surroundings before so I can best accommodate for the safety of both myself and the animals.

“Last minute and amazing pet sitter! We had a different sitter all set up for about 3 weeks prior to a brief trip away—the hotel was booked, the theater and MLB tickets were purchased…transportation was all arranged……then the original sitter had to cancel the DAY BEFORE our trip started! We scrambled, and I put out several feelers for someone to watch our 2 Great Danes, who have some behavioral issues we’re ironing out. Amanda came to the rescue! Not only did she step up to the task of sitting for us, she came the night we decided to book (a day before she’d actually be sitting for us), so she could meet us and our pups….and she doesn’t live all that close to us, so that was pretty-well out of her way. She stayed with our ups and kept them happy—our biggest worry was that they might get in an argument with each other…..and they didn’t! Plus our shy guy actually ate while we were gone, which doesn’t always happen. We’re extremely happy with how everything went with Amanda helping us out!”


“Lynn took great care of our boys! One day a big storm blew up out of nowhere and she rushed back over because she knew one of our dogs did not do well in storms. ❤️ Highly recommend”


“Tasia was the perfect sitter for my fur family! Tasia and my dog had an instant bond, and Tasia's background with higher-needs pups gave me the confidence that my rescue Staffy would be in good hands. Tasia was communicative throughout her stay.”


“Kristina was wonderful! She took great care of Bowie, and he was happy and relaxed when we came home. Kristina was communicative and responsible, and left the house clean and tidy. We'd definitely book with her again.”
