“Hired I had a great experience with Ashlynn during their drop-in visit with my two dogs! They were kind, patient, and clearly knew how to make the pups feel comfortable. They played fetch and gave them some fun exercise, and the most impressive part was how they were able to connect with my usually standoffish dog—he even let them pet him, which is rare! I really appreciated the care and attention they gave, and I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”


“I would def recommend using Oriana for your pet sitting needs! She was wonderful. She came over at the exact time we needed her and even was understanding on needing to canceling a day! I will definitely use her in the future!! Thank you so much Oriana!”


“Bonnie did an amazing Job with our boys! It is so great to know that our babies were taken care of and loved while we were away! She was prompt and communicated regularly with us! Highly Recommend!”


About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals, ranging from a basset hound to four weenie dogs to a lost dog found on the side of a road. Any animal I watch, I treat as my own. I have experience working with senior animals, puppies, energetic, lazy, and all other kids of animals. I am currently working part-time and a student at OU (majoring in social work). I have an open and flexible schedule for your sitter needs. A treat all animals that I encounter like an actual human child. They are small part in our lives, but we are their whole lives and so I take every moment I’m given and turn it into something meaningful with the animal.

“Very attentive & responsive to my fur babies. The day bf my trip my dog was attacked by another dog & had to get stitches and required antibiotics & other meds. Kara & Brittany was able to adjust their schedules & give the care my baby needed. Would highly recommend & will be using them again in the near future.”


“Rachael was available for us on short notice, and she was great to meet us before our trip. Her drop-in care for Mama, our cat, was great. The pics of Mama Rachael sent to us during our trip were appreciated.”


About: My experience with pets stems from my childhood, when I was tasked with the responsibility to care for pets and neighborhood kids. Loving pets has been adopted as part of my nature; to share affection and attention with those that give their all to us. As I am currently working part-time, I am available to host and spoil your pet in a flexible manner. My partner also works from home so we are able to provide around the clock attention to your pup(s). We are able to board most of the time, and are always eager to expose our only son (dog) to new cousins. We are lucky in our humble home to offer a large spacious fenced in backyard that is very safe for your pets. Though it is important to note that there are steps leading to the front and backyard in case that is something your pet may need extra accessibility to. We are also lucky to live in a central area of downtown that is very pet friendly with walkable parks and trails nearby, and even dog friendly bars that are familiar with our dog-centered family. In the case that I were to visit your home, I have experience working as a home visitor in parenting support programs, and as always, honor the trust you share in allowing me in your space. I take that very seriously, and will treat your home as sacred as I treat your pets: with respect.

“She is truly exceptional, always available to care for my pets whenever I need her. Additionally, she has been a great help in resetting the Wi-Fi during outages. My heartfelt thanks to her! She's a lifesaver”


About: "I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I genuinely enjoy walking, playing with, and understanding what they’re trying to communicate. Years ago, I attended puppy training classes with my beloved German Shepherd, which taught me valuable training techniques that I continue to appreciate today." I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for your beloved pet any day of the week! I can board them, do drop-in visits, doggy day care and walking. I have a fenced in large acre plus back yard for them to play and run in. Also, I have a large crate if needed for care.

“This was my first experience with a Rover sitter as our family schedule usually allows someone to be home most of the time. We booked a drop-in visit. Katie is so personable, professional, and positive! She was completely comfortable caring for 4 large dogs, which included 2 foster dogs that aren’t ready to accept each other yet. She handled dog rotation between areas like a champ! From the first impression at the meet and greet, it was obvious that Katie loves dogs and loves what she does. Even with a tight schedule, she was prompt for each visit and responded to communication in a timely manner. Highly recommend Katie for a drop-in visit, dog walking, or an overnight stay!”


About: I have two large dogs which are a handful. I know how to handle a stressed dog, and keep an eye out for any obstacles. I only do gentle parenting ensuring that your dog is the star of the show and treated with kindness and patience. I am very positive and a great listener. I will take any of you instructions very seriously. I will bring my own pet baggies for any poop that happens along the way. My schedual changes on a weekly basis but I am mostly available in the morning times. Morning times are good because it’s not to hot! I can also do in the evening. I know how to create a safe and fun environment for dogs. I know that each dog is different and I will try to understand them individually. I will check in with the dog frequently and give you any necessary updates.

About: I have lots of experience and am very reliable and will follow your instructions exactly as you state them. I have a deep love for animals as they are therapeutic to me. You are in very safe hands. I can be flexible because of my job, so if you can tell me ahead of time when you would need services, I can make my work schedule around that. I am comfortable being watched on cameras if needed. I can wash your pets if desired. I will know where they are at all times.

About: I work from home all day and I have one dog named Jett who needs some furry friends. We would love to help you take care of your pets while you're away!!! Jett is great with other dogs! I work from home Monday through Friday. I leave the back door open so the dogs can come and go. The dogs are allowed all over the furniture. Jett and I also have time to play all day with daily lunch walks. Fenced yard, my medium dog loves others and has been around other dogs all her life. I do have a 10 year nursing background so I can keep a pretty good eye on your pet!

“Tina was fantastic with my senior cat. She took excellent, patient care of her and it was especially reassuring to know my cat was receiving her medication on time while I was away. I won’t hesitate to reach out to Tina next time I go out of town.”


“Heidi was able to help out last minute and helped love on our puppy during a holiday we wouldn’t be home a lot! Thankful for the peace of mind and photos of them playing 🥰”


About: I’ve been watching and caring for my family and friends dogs for years. I have been called a dog whisperer at times, getting even the shyest of dogs to warm up to me. I cater more towards small and medium dogs. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule can make adjustments as need be for anything that may come up during the day. I have a yard with a fence and a gate. I will make sure your pets have fun during their walks or during my visit so that they will be safe and taken care of.

About: Hello my name is Christy Adams and welcome to my page! I am 30 years old and have been a rover sitter since 2017. I absolutely LOVE it! The dogs we have watched have truly became part of our family. I took a break right before 2020 when I found out I was pregnant. Our son is 3 now and very excited to get back. Since we do have a little boy we will only be accepting kid friendly dogs. We also have three dogs of our own so they will also have to be friendly around other dogs as well. I am a stay at home mom so I will always be here with your babies so they will never be left alone. I have cared for dogs my entire life, growing up and even in my adult hood we have always had a dog. I was also a manager at Petsmart for 4 years and stopped right before I gave birth. Our dogs are our first babies and have been included in every big milestone in our life, from our wedding, family pictures, and to welcoming our baby home. I promise you we will treat yours as if it was part as our family as well. We have a large fenced in back yard for your baby to play in, and we will make sure they will leave a tired puppy. Whether it’s going outside playing fetch, or during summertime to play in the doggie pool and sprinkler , and just running around having a great time. Also if they love car rides we can take trips to get pup cups! And of course lots of snuggle time, we do allow all the dogs on the couch and beds and the dogs even have their own room with a queen size bed. I am very patient when it comes to dogs and willing to give your dog the special attention they deserve. Which is why we do only have one family at a time, that way we can give them more attention and love that they need. Our three dogs are getting older and almost seniors so they typically do better with more of a laid back kind of dog. So our household would probably do better with the older dogs, which is why we can not board any puppies. They of course love to run and play and are sweet as can be, but they are also major couch potato’s as well 😆 . So if that is what your pup is all about they will fit right in! When we are taking care of your dog you have nothing to worry about, I love pictures myself so you would of course get lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay. I know how scary it can be to leave your baby, and I hope to make that a little bit easier for you. I have a ton of love to give to them , and will treat them as if they were my own and can’t wait to meet your baby! I am a stay at home mom and basically a home body. While your baby is with us I will always be home to watch and care for them. That way they will never be left alone. We have a fenced yard for them to run and play, can also go for walks around our neighborhood. In our home our dogs roam free , they also have their own room with a queen sized bed. If your pup has their own bed that they usually sleep on I would recommend bringing that. Or if they would be more comfortable sleeping with my husband and I in our bed we would of course do that too!

Brody M.
“I can’t thank you enough for taking such amazing care of my three dachshund boys while I was away! It’s not easy to earn their trust (or their approval), but you clearly won them over. From belly rubs to playtime and all the snuggles in between, it’s clear they were spoiled and loved every minute of it. I came home to happy, relaxed pups—and that means everything to me. You’re officially dachshund-approved, and we’re so grateful!”

Highly recommend her for any pet sitting need!”

“I have observed Rachel care for and look after dogs on numerous occasions. She is cautious and attentive and always puts the needs of the dog first. Rachel is particularly adept at caring for large breed dogs. She has a lot of experience handling and looking after large high energy dogs.”


Andria W.Star Sitter
“Andria watched my 2 cats ( Wilson and Salem) for 10 days. She was honest, dependable and kind. I know that she loved my cats like her own. She sent me updates and pictures and to say my cats looked happy is an understatement. My cat Salem is a very shy cat and doesn’t not trust people easily, but he warmed up to Andria almost instantly. I would 100% hire her to watch my cats again.”

Christy A.
“Christy has loved animals and cared for them since she was young. As a young 8 year old dogs would come to her and she would pet them and they would lick her like she was their owner! As she got older she had her own dogs and would walk them and feed them and wash them. She always made sure they were clean and brushed and well fed. She has always been amazing with animals especially dogs. She worked at a shelter and would walk and wash and brush the dogs there as well. She has always had a heart for animals but especially dogs. Anyone who has her to watch their dogs would be lucky to have her. I have never seen anyone as good with dogs as she is.”
