“Anne was wonderful and you can tell right from the first moments of meeting she is a dog person. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in the future. She took great care of our dogs and was very communicative. Thank you Anne ❤️”
“Michaela watched our two pups at our home for the week. Her communication was wonderful from initially setting up an in person meet and greet and throughout the week while we were gone. She took excellent care of the home as well. It was nice not having to worry about a single thing.”
“We would highly recommend Bailey for your pet/house sitting needs. It was our first time using Rover and we have three dogs (2 large) so we wanted someone that was comfortable around large dogs. Our dogs warmed up to Bailey as soon as they met her. We felt our home was in good hands and came back to it looking exactly as left. Will definitely look to Bailey in the future when needed.”
“Jordan was great! She gave us frequent updates and photos of our dog and cat while we were away. She was also a very kind guest in our home. We will definitely be reaching out to her any other time our animals need care!”
“Kia was so wonderful with our dog, Penny. She gave updates with photos and videos. Asked questions that showed she cared, for example, asking if Penny and her could play fetch outside with or without a leash. She was responsive, friendly, professional and wonderful to work with for the whole process.”
About: I have had about 10 years of experience with animals, whether a fish, a bird, cat or dog. I love dogs more than anything, I have basic knowledge when it comes to training puppies. I am even going to school to become a certified dog trainer. I am currently doing an online program for college, so it will be extremely easy for me to go to your home for your pet. I can even take your animal for walks, drives, and whatever else you'd like me to do. I have a really open schedule. I have chickens, dogs, and cats at home. I have always believed in using positive reinforcement when it comes to any kind of animal. I always have patience with mine and other peoples animals. I believe in treating animals with love and kindness like I would a person.
“Can't recommend Laura more. We needed a lat minute pet sitter due to a change in our summer plans. She came and met our babies and was instantly comfortable with our two big crazy kids. She kept us updated daily with pictures and videos which eased my mind every day. We will definitely use Laura whenever shes available for our travels!”
“Jayla was great! This was the first time we used Rover. It was great having the peace of mind to enjoy a dinner with friends not worrying about the fact our dog Tully would l have an accident, etc. if if left alone at night time for more than an hour. or so. We would absolutely ask Jayla to watch Tully again.”
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was a little girl! I pride myself in the care I give to all animals. I love big dogs, small dogs, and Cats!! I am a college student that commutes from home! I will be working a part time job at Target in the fall but only 3 days a week for 6 hour periods at a time! I am home very often and can pretty much make anything work into my schedule!! I have been around animals for all of my life, and love spending time with cats especially! I dog sit for my neighbors with dogs of all ages, small and big!! I enjoy being able to get active and go on walks, or just relaxing to offer company.
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs since I was 14. I’ve given medicine, gone for needed late night walks, and have a flexible schedule that can work around your pets’ needs! I work from home, so my schedule can adjust as needed. There is the occasional in-person meeting, but I’m almost never gone more than 4 hours and will know in advance so we can figure out a proper solution. My work has usually included the basics of pet-care such as feeding them, taking them outside, and giving them proper attention. On occasion I’ve given medicine, helped stay consistent with basic training, and am more than willing to stay overnight.
“This was our first time leaving our dogs at home overnight and Emma did great with them! She was on time and sent pictures of the dogs. :) We will definitely be using her in the future!”
About: I have had 2 dogs in the time that I have been alive and they were such good dogs. I absolutely love taking care of pets even if they are not my own. I’m currently working full time at Renaissance by Marriott but will still have plenty of time to take care of your pet(s) and give them plenty of walks, food, and water. I am willing and able to do whatever you need me to do. If you have a fenced in yard, I can let them out to enjoy the weather and potty breaks. If you do not have a fenced in yard, I would be more than happy to take them on a leash outside.
“Jerry was absolutely amazing and my puppers loved him so much! I could not have asked for a better person to take care of them and right away my tito and natalia warmed up to him. Throughout my work trip he would send me updates and pictures and it made my heart happy to see how well he got along with my little pups. Jerry is a wonderful person and I am beyond thrilled to have met him :) I can't recommend Jerry enough! If you want to meet an amazing person who is amazing with animals, call Jerry! He's the best.”
About: I love pets! I have had dogs and cats since I was little and have always enjoyed sitting for my family and friends. I know how hard it is to leave your pet and how important it is to know they’re in good hands! I currently have very open availability. I can come by for a quick visit and walk or stay overnight at your home to care for your pets. When caring for your pets I want to make sure I am giving them the best treatment, so I always like to know what the owner would prefer! I am quick to responding to messages and will send you photos of your pets as well. I love to snuggle and play with your furry ones!

Juliana G.
“If animals could write reviews, this Juliana’s profile would be flooded with five-paw ratings. Watching Juli with dogs is like witnessing a kind of magic, there's a calm, intuitive connection she has with them that goes beyond the usual pet care. Whether it’s a high-energy pup needing a long walk or a nervous rescue needing patience and understanding, Juliana just gets them. She don’t just walk dogs, she communicates with them, trains them with respect, and truly cares for each animal. You can tell this isn’t just a job for her, it’s a calling. I trust her completely with my pets and always come home to happy puppies! If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like their own and seems to have a cosmic bond with animals, look no further.”

“When we’ve had to travel, knowing our pets are in Sierra's hands gives us complete peace of mind. They’re incredibly dependable and communicate so well—keeping us in the loop about how everyone is doing, even our more shy cat, who has really warmed up to them over time (a miracle in itself!). It’s clear that this is more than just a job to them—they truly care. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Sierra on Rover, and we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our furry family members.”
Damica M.
“Damica M. provided outstanding care for my golden retriever puppy while I was out of state for a week.
