About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.
“Julia is a fantastic dog sitter. We felt SO comfortable leaving our dog with her. She has two dogs of her own so she very clearly “gets it” and she went above and beyond to make us feel like Duke was in good hands.”

“Noah took great care of our pup while we were away! Noah was responsive and sent daily photos and updates about how our pup was doing. I will definitely hire him again!”

“Dex was very sweet to my girls especially Raven, my shy girl. They were very patient with her and provided her with the comfort needed for Raven to get comfortable. My girls were treated like family with Dex, and that is all I can ask for. This was my first time leaving my girls with a stranger rather than family, and I was very nervous. Dex has melted away those nerves. I plan on using their services again for another upcoming trip.”

“Crystal was amazing. Nola was extremely comfortable with her as she was very attentive. Crystal was very responsive and sent me pictures and videos of NOLA during her stay. I will absolutely be using her again in the future.”

“Our dog Molly had a great vacay at Robin's house. There's plenty of room for dogs to run around, a stream to cool off in and Robin's dog Maika loved playing Molly's favorite game, Chase Me! We were happy that Molly was given lots of positive things to chew on when inside the house and was allowed to cuddle in bed with these nice people at night. They spoiled her just like we do. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Robin and her sister who have lots of experience with dogs. Molly will be staying with them again in the future for sure!”

About: Hi! I’m Tay, equal parts responsible adult and dog hype person. I’m the type to send you update pictures like your dog just graduated college. Whether your pup is energetic, anxious, clingy, goofy, or convinced they own the house, I adjust to their vibe quickly. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love animals, but I also understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big deal. Your pet will get plenty of attention, care, walks, playtime, and probably a few compliments they don’t deserve. I’m comfortable with different personalities and routines, from couch potato cuddle experts to dogs training for the Dog Olympics. I’ll follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requests carefully. Bonus: your dog can vent to me about you while you’re gone, and I legally cannot tell you what they said. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! 🐾 I work from home, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, supervision, and company throughout the day. I’m available for daytime care, walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, medication schedules, and all the “throw the toy again immediately” requests your dog may have. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup loves nonstop attention or prefers a calm nap buddy nearby, I can accommodate their needs throughout the day. I live in a very nice open spaced 2 bedroom house with a fenced yard and hardwood floors. I have a yard with lots of room for animals to play and enjoy themselves.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a young kid! It’s always been a passion of mine. Animals are everything! I treat them if they were my little babies. Currently, I am open any hour of the day! I usually prefer watching animals in their environment, so they have no anxiety issues. Whatever works best for you! I ensure they are comfortable and provide playtime. I usually follow the owner's notes and send updates with pictures of their pet! We also go on multiple walks!
About: I have always taken care of animals my whole life. I’m a true caregiver, putting the animals needs above everything else. I also work from home, and have a flexible schedule to give the best individualized care to each animal. I set my own schedule during the week, which allows me to spend real quality time with your animal. I work from home, and I have flexible availability. I pay close attention to the animal’s needs. I make sure they are entertained if they need to burn off energy, and have water and a comfy spot if they need to rest. I have decades of experience taking care of all different types and ages of animals with special needs.
“My experience with Megan was great. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, to include behaviors and training. She is patient, easy to talk to, and accommodating. I originally scheduled a daycare appointment that I cancelled that morning due to my dog appearing sick. Once I saw he was ok, I contacted Megan to ask if I could bring him since he was feeling better and it was no problem. She took pictures of my dog while he was there, got him to eat, and provided updates. Would highly recommend.”

About: I've had pets since I was a pre-teen, and recently I've been a rescue foster for dogs & cats for the past 2 years, so I have cared for many animals, many with behavioral issues. I have two rescue pitbulls and two rescue cats of my own. I have been working from home as a nonprofit contractor & artist. Although I do not have a car, I am able to bop around town via bike I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs who would love to keep your doggy company. I also have a large crate in a separate front room if they need their own space.
“Lisa and Gizzy took great care of our Charlie! He can be a nervous nelly, but they put him at ease quickly as if he was part of the family from day one. Pics and updates were sent regularly. We are so grateful to have found you as Charlie’s home away from home!”

“I was in a bind and quickly needed to find a pet sitter in under 12 hours. Rachelle responded quickly and saved the day. It was my first time using rover and Rachelle made me comfortable with the entire process!”

“Recently, I boarded my Golden Doodle and Dachshund with Juliana, and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. Juliana was attentive, professional, and provided daily updates on my pets’ well-being. I highly recommend Juliana for anyone seeking safe, reliable pet boarding services.”

About: Growing up, my nuclear family cared for roughly thirty cats, both indoor and outdoor. Naturally, part of my daily routine was feeding them all before getting on the school bus, keeping the litter boxes and surrounding areas tidy throughout the day, and of course providing AMPLE love to all. I have experience nursing abandoned kittens to health and maturity, as well as acclimating feral cats into the home. I am more than keen when it comes to feline behavior! (My mother used to "joke" that her four children should come together and open a vet clinic.) Today, my husband and I have a well-trained, 3 year old shepherd mix named Poet, whom we adopted at just 8 weeks old, and a 5 year old American bobtail kitty named Millie, who we also rescued. We both work from home and our animals are our absolute lives. Normal days for us include walks around the neighborhood, as well as trips to City Bark. We have a fenced in backyard for potty time, as well as sun bathing. Both as our animal have free reign of our home; they watch TV with us, answer email with us, snooze with us, cook with us, etc.! You can trust that your fur baby would be met with the same love, adoration, and care that we provide to our own. Both my husband and myself work from home and are able to provide near-constant care for your fur babies, whether that pertain to potty breaks or play time! We have a modest fenced in yard, as well as one dog and one cat of our own. Both are friendly with all species! We have ample space (spare bedrooms) to set up up a crate/kennel if desired.
About: I’ve cared for two dogs for 16 years, giving me hands-on experience with every stage of a dog’s life—from energetic puppy phases to the special attention seniors need. Because of this, I’m patient, attentive, and confident in handling different personalities, routines, and care needs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, basic training, administering simple medications, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets of all ages. What sets me apart is my long-term, real-life experience and the genuine love and understanding that comes from growing up with dogs as part of my family. I am not currently working! I’m a student, which gives me a flexible schedule—especially in the early mornings and afternoons. I’m typically available before classes start in the morning and again once school wraps up for the day, making it easy for me to fit in walks, drop-ins, or extra time with your pets. My weekends are usually open as well, so I can accommodate longer visits, consistent routines, or last-minute needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule to make sure they get the care and attention they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, comfort level, and personality so they feel secure at all times. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space free of hazards, follow feeding and medication instructions exactly, and provide constant supervision during walks and playtime. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure your pet is comfortable, respected, and treated like family.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Orleans
Jessica was AMAZING! Very sweet and communicative. I really appreciated all of her updates and photos. It helped ease my anxiety about leaving my baby behind. It’s clear that she loves dogs and enjoys having them around. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
This was the 2nd time we used Regina to watch Theo and she provides the absolute best care! She is incredibly attentive, always provides the most detailed updates and Theo absolutely loves her. She is a pleasure to work with and also always very accommodating. Can’t recommend her enough!

It’s been a while since we’ve booked a boarding with Mike but Luna and I absolutely love him! Very sweet, great with Luna and pays close attention to detail. I can appreciate receiving pictures and videos throughout her stay does a great job communicating and is very understanding. So grateful to have gotten to book with Mike again. Definitely a star sitter! ⭐️

Sophie is the best! She is very communicative and went above and beyond to help my pup feel happy and comfortable while I was out of town. Sophie graciously shuffled her schedule to take my dog to the vet for an unexpected issue and made sure to call me so I could talk to the vet. Sophie is extremely reliable and my dog absolutely adores her. I highly recommend Sophie for fantastic care for fur babies!

Wow!! Seray provided amazing care for my cat, Ella! She was incredibly patient and gave Ella the time and space she needed to feel comfortable and warm up to her. I truly appreciated the care and attention she provided. It gave me peace of mind knowing Ella was in such good hands. 10/10 experience! I would absolutely recommend Seray to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!

Christina was a total sweetheart from the moment of her first response to saying goodbye to our pup. She was so communicative and sent such sweet pictures and messages about their adventures and her great care of him. I have used Rover many times in various locations, and I think this was the best experience we have had thus far. I felt so good about Copper's care that I almost felt guilty picking him up. LOL.

Excellent care taker of my baby girl. I would highly recommend Ellen for a sitter while you are away. She was always timely and an effective communicator of all things I worried about while away. She sent videos and photos of the dogs throughout my trip. I will be using her in the future.

We love Blair and have returned to her for dogsitting! She takes excellent care of our high energy dog when we are out of town, keeps her entertained with walks and playing, is very low key and responsive to questions, sends pictures and updates regularly. Cannot recommend her enough.
