“We had a Angelica stay with our dogs for a week, and we truly can’t say enough good things about our experience. She was absolutely amazing from start to finish, with excellent communication the entire time. What really stood out was how attentive she was, she noticed something unusual in one of our dog’s behavior and reached out to us right away. That level of care meant everything to us and gave us so much peace of mind. We felt completely comfortable knowing our dogs were in such good hands, and it was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she’s watching. We can’t recommend her enough and are already looking forward to having her back!”


“She is Awesome… Kaitlan kept our 4 babies for 9 days. She sent updates and pictures each day. We have one guy who is a little cranky and they were best friends after a few day’s. She took them for walks. The house was just like we left it (a nice surprise). She is now my number one and only dog sitter. Thank you Kaitlin for loving our babies like we do. You are awesome!!!”

“Zoe was great with my pup! I’ve been hesitant to leave him home alone and Zoe allowed me to enjoy a night out without worry! Highly highly recommend them for your pet sitting needs!”


“Geoffrey was great! I was worry free. He sent cute pictures and gave me updates. My place was very clean when I returned. We will definitely ask him to watch Buddy and Chloe again”

“Jordyn took great care of Harvey - she kelp us updated on their adventures with pictures and was flexible with timing when it took us a little longer to get out of the house. Can’t wait to have her take care of Harvey again!”

“Kimmie was excellent— took great care of our pets and sent lots of updates! We are so grateful for how much care she took to make sure our fur babies were taken care of and loved.”

“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog and elderly cat (who gets meds 2x/day!) with Michelle for 12 days. She is very responsible, has great attention to detail and is highly attentive to making sure all bases are covered. Additionally, and so important, she has a kind, loving and compassionate energy - I felt at ease leaving my furry children and home with her and was not disappointed!”

“I am a repeat customer of Stephanie. My dogs are well cared for and my house is clean when I get home. She always exceeds my expectations! Highest recommendations!”

About: I I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. My background includes daily feeding routines, administering basic medications, leash walks, playtime, and providing lots of affection and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and comfort levels. I work a remote full time job. If I’m needed more frequently, all I’d ask is to be allowed to work from your location. Otherwise, I’m on a 9-5 work schedule and can be available for one hour, typically between 11am and 1pm, and every evening. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routine. I am available after 3:30 pm daily, which allows me to reliably focus on feeding times, walks, okay sessions, and quality one-on-one care in the afternoons and evenings.

“Lindsey was awesome! She took great care of our fur babies while we were away. Would definitely recommend her and will use her services again in the future. Thank you, Lindsey!”


“Words cannot express how thankful we are to have Mandy! She is so patient and caring for our house full of animals! Our older dog has high anxiety, and honestly gave her a hard time. She tried everything to make her comfortable, even sacrificing her own comfort. The other animals truly enjoyed her presence, as seen through photos, and videos. We are going to try a friendly at home integration with our big pup and Mandy, to make sure her next stay will be an enjoyable one. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a confident, trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: Hi there! I have experience house/pet sitting for my colleagues and feel Rover is perfect for me to get to love and care for pets as I no longer have any of my own. I had a Dachshund for 17 years and have an extra soft spot for senior pets. I’ve also fostered in the past! Because I work remotely full time, I’m able to be at your home full time to give pets more companionship, supervision, potty breaks, medications, and consistency throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I also understand how important trust and communication are while you’re away so I love sending photo and video updates if owners enjoy them. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions. I treat every home respectfully and every pet with the same care, patience, and affection I would want for my own.
“Samara was the BEST!!! All her sweet photos and cute comments about my little buddy! She took so much great care of him and was very communicative! I definitely will be asking her to watch puck again :-)”
“Jeremy was an excellent dog sitter! He was attentive, communicative, and kept both my husband and me updated with regular texts and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. He made sure our two dogs got plenty of walks and care while we were away. We would absolutely use Jeremy again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: Hi! I have been pet sitting for different families since around 2022-2023. I am a huge animal lover and I grew up with dogs. I always treat other people’s pets as if they were my own because that’s what I would expect. Pets aren’t just animals we keep but, they’re also family members. I take the safety and comfort of other people’s pets very seriously. Over the years i’ve walked dogs, stayed the night to watch pets or simply stopped by a family’s home to let their dog out to potty and play. I can’t wait to meet your pet’s along the way! I have a ton of free time but am usually busier on the weekends. I am generally very available during the week though. I currently babysit occasionally and do online classes so my schedule is quite flexible. When a pet owner trusts me to go to their home and watch their pets I always ensure that I am respectful of their home and pets. If i’m unsure about anything I contact the owner just to get clarification just in case. I make sure to do what is asked of me and on time. Feeding time, play time, outside time and cuddle time are all very important parts of your pet’s day. They’re already anxious missing their owner so I do whatever I can to help ease their nerves. Responsibility, respect and safety of your pets is always my number one priority!
“This was our first house sit with Katelyn and I will definitely be rebooking. She took care of my large dog, 2 cats and home as if they were her own. 10/10 definitely recommend Katelyn.”

New Sweden pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kim did an excellent job caring for our three large, rambunctious dogs, which includes a puppy and a senior dog. She was attentive and knowledgeable and we felt very reassured they were in good hands. She was communicative and sent plenty of pictures so we know they were being cared for. Additionally, she also took great care of our house and everything was in order when we returned from a long trip. She was flexible and understanding when our flight was delayed by an emergency, which was a huge relief. We highly recommend her as a sitter and will definitely be using her again.
