“If I could leave 10 stars I would! This was the longest time apart from my pup and was very nervous, Erica and family made me feel at ease with her communication and pictures of my pup. I feel at ease to have a sitter that is close and cares for a GSD who is anxious at baseline. Thanks you!”

“Good morning Natalia! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Calvyn! It’s clear that you went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable, happy, and loved. We could tell he was in great hands, and it really put our minds at ease while we were away on the cruise. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you for everything you did an outstanding job! We noticed how happy Calvyn seemed to be when we brought him home. Job well done! Thank you so much we really appreciate it. We would highly recommend you to others! Manny and Addy Marques”

“Leanne and Michael took great care of my dog, very attentive to her needs and provided frequent updates on how she was eating and getting along with the other dogs. Will be hiring them again!”
“Our pup, Oscar, has stayed with Tara twice now and both times has come home happy and tired! We completely trust her with taking good care of our fur child. Thanks again, Tara!”

“Chris & Whitney were great with Rook! I received pictures every day and had good communication with them throughout my trip. They also went above and beyond and let me leave my car in their driveway. Very nice couple who you can tell just genuinely loves dogs!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”

“We are so lucky to have found Geof! He sent wonderful updates and took such care of our doggie. Geof wanted to know about our doggie to make sure it was the best experience for her, and it was! She was so, so happy. His beautiful house has the best backyard for doggies to enjoy their time outside.”

“Ziara watched our golden for us for one night while visiting Cape May NJ. She was great in communicating and sending us pics of our baby. I would highly recommend her. We would use her again if ever down there. Thank you Ziara🤠”


“My dog Theo had a great stay with Lindsey! She was very accommodating to his specific needs with leash reactivity and gave him a daily antibiotic that he needed to help fight an infection. She also accepted our request with only a week or so advance notice, this was a life saver for us! She sent daily updates on his food/med schedule, their plans for the day and plenty of photo video updates. She took him to a great beach spot in the local state park. He had a blast! I would absolutely recommend Lindsey for your pet sitting needs!”

“Kathleen provided excellent care of Clara. She was so kind and provided lots of updates and pictures which we loved. She went above and beyond to make sure Clara felt comfortable, happy and loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you for everything you did an amazing job. We would recommend and will call her again !!”

About: I’ve pet sat with my moms business since I was about 10, and over 18 years have taken care of many animals. I love to play with the animals, my goal is that when I’m rehired the come to the door to greet me to play with them. I work part time and can do mornings and overnights before and after work. I also get breaks on shifts that I can stop in and visit. I cannot do my own home, but can take care of the animals at their home where they’re more comfortable. Besides just feeding them, walking them or taking them out, it’s important to play with them and keep them entertained. Which always entertains me.
“Karen and Chris were fantastic! They are such a nice family that took excellent care of our pup. They were great with communication and pictures. I knew our dog was safe and loved! Highly recommend!!!”

“Jean is an absolutely incredible sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is loved, cared for and feels safe during their stay. We can always tell after each visit how much sugar has loved her stay with Jean, and there are many video and photo updates to take the stress away.”

“Kelly was very responsive and accommodating to us when we needed to book a last minute stay for our pup Holly! Holly was taken care of very well and had a great time! We will definitely use again in the future!”

About: I have pet sit cats, dogs, and rabbits, as well as dogwalked since I was 12 years old (2016). I have owned both a kitten before as well as a puppy and now own an adult dog who I helped to crate and potty train. I have housesat for dogs and cats multiple times in my own home as well as theirs for up to weeks in a row. I love animals more than anything on the planet and would love the opportunity for your pet to be cared for by somebody who will shower them with love. I currently only work 2 hour shifts twice a week so I am at home most of the time and usually all day on weekends. I am a senior at Salve Regina University so I do have class, but am not usually gone for more than 2.5 hours at a time. I have a pet-safe apartment and am home most of the time for potty breaks, feeding, walks, and overall engagement. They are allowed on all furniture and I treat them as if they are my own. I will also respect your rules if we are in your home and will try and make them feel as comfortable as possible in their normal environment.
“Thomas was wonderful with our senior dog, Nikko! They went on lots of walks and adventures in the woods and to the beach! He sent us lots of pictures while we were away and we’ll definitely be using him in the future!”

“My wife and I were leaving for our honeymoon, and our Cole couldn’t come with. We were a little hesitant to use the Rover app due to previous experiences not being so great, but Isabel showed us what Rover SHOULD be! She watched our dog for a week, and sent us photos, and kept us updated throughout the week. When we picked up our dog, he was waiting for her to come with! (He also fell in love with her dog Betty - who is super friendly!) 10/10 would recommend your dog with Isabel, there is no one else who would take as good care of your furbaby like she does ❤️ Our dog can be leash reactive, and she handled him so well and even gave us a report at pick up.”

Newport pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jennifer was so amazing and gave us constant and thoughtful updates on our Amber. She even helped us have our Amber be a part of our wedding day and make it so much more special! Jennifer was the perfect person to leave her with and we’re so happy she was able to be there for us

Lillian was incredibly friendly, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about our dog’s well-being. Our dog is older and ended up getting sick while staying with her, and she handled everything exceptionally well. She kept us updated, was attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and properly cared for. That level of responsibility and compassion meant a lot to us. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Theresa took amazing care of our boxer! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. She went on plenty of walks, got lots of attention, and we received wonderful updates showing all the fun she was having. Theresa is incredibly kind, genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and her responsiveness is outstanding. We always felt completely at ease knowing our pup was safe, happy, and well-loved. Highly recommend Theresa!

We cannot recommend Kolby enough! We dropped the ball on arranging care for our dog, Penny during our wedding weekend. Not only did we need someone to watch Penny, but also needed someone to bring her to our venue, as she was an important part of our wedding ceremony. On very short notice, we found Kolby through Rover, and she exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she loves dogs and makes them feel safe and at home. She went above and beyond to care for Penny, kept us updated with daily photos, and ensured everything went smoothly on our big day. Thanks to Kolby, Penny was happy, cared for, and our wedding went off without a hitch!
