“Michelle did a great job watching both my dogs. I will definitely rebook her in the future. I highly recommend Michelle. She was reliable, consistent, and was excellent with my dogs!”
“Trish was great and the dogs seemed to have enjoyed her company. She stayed in touch with me through the weekend, which was reassuring given that we have a special needs dog that requires heart meds throughout the day. We appreciated her attentiveness and communication.”
“Absolutely wonderful! My girl was so well loved, cared for, took her ok so many walks and adventures and was such a great communicator. Thank you Janessa for being amazing!”
“We usually do drop ins for our kitties but did house sit this time and it worked out amazing! Jazmine is responsible, dependable, and communicative. We get a pretty detailed recap of the day and lots of videos and pictures. Of course the kitties loved it and housesit worked a lot better for my cat that picks at his food throughout the day. We didn’t have to worry at all. Ty Jazmine you are the best!!”
About: There's something about caring for dogs and cats that brings my heart alive. There's nothing I'd rather do than care lovingly attentively for these animals. I am a retired English teacher, and my time is unlimited. I prefer long term, overnight sitting in your home. I am fit and love walking and playing with your loved one. I treat them as if they were my own. Having been raised caring for my families dogs, cats, horses, cows, ducks, fish, and even peacocks, I am most comfortable with animals. I follow instructions, administer medicine when necessary, and leave your home in perfect condition as you left it. Some folks say I'm too old to do this...I know I'm not. I can walk 2 miles easily with dogs. I have described my affection for dogs and cats which I hope reflects the care I will provide, and I would be so pleased to serve you.

About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. Since it is summer your pets will always fit in my schedule! Saturday and Sunday will be the only days I can't fit your pets in. I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.
“My house sitting fell through just a few days before I went on a week-long trip. Ashlie swooped in at the last minute to save the day! Thanks to her flexibility and understanding of my situation, we arranged a meet and greet nearly within 24 hours. She was so easy to work with while I was frazzled with the last minute changes. While I was gone Ashlie sent pictures and responded quickly to questions and requests. I have no doubt Annie was comfortable and happy in her care. She was also very respectful to my space and belongings. I'd recommend Ashlie to anyone needing house sitting services, especially if you need someone with large dog experience.”
“Lisa is super communicative. I felt comfortable with her in my home and to watch my doggy. He's a super shy husky and she had the patience to work with him. Hope to have Lisa again next time :)”
“Dustin was very patient with my anxious dog (and very patient with his anxious mamma). Thank you for hanging in there with him, I appreciate it. Highly recommended!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Mel. She was incredibly communicative from start to finish and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She sent frequent updates and tons of adorable pictures, which we loved and truly appreciated. She took wonderful care of our home and gave us such peace of mind during our wedding weekend, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. It was clear our pup was in caring, capable hands the entire time. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! Thank you, Mel!”
About: I’ve grown up with a lot of animals in my family, and a dog of my own. I have years of experience in dog walking, bathing, feeding, and cleaning up after. I am currently home for the summer and have a very open schedule! Although I am taking summer courses, I can always make time for your pets! I will ensure that the environment is suitable for your pet and I am able to do whatever is requested while walking or pet sitting.
“Holly has watched our pets multiple times— she’s always thoughtful and communicative, and we leave town knowing with certainty that our pets are in amazing hands. When Holly sends photos or videos of our cats, they’re always at ease and doing their favorite activities (playing with their toys, making biscuits, and just generally having a great time.) Thank you so much for another great visit, Holly!”
About: I have been dog sitting and taking care of pets since I was 15. I love being with dogs of all ages and breeds. I have a soft spot for anxious or nervous dogs as I also have a nervous dog at home myself! I will be sure to send you photos and updates every day about your pet and will treat them like they are my own pup. They will be well taken care of and receive lots of love when they are with me.

If you prefer to keep your dog crated, I make sure they are not being destructive to your home while I am gone. I also make sure to give them plenty of mental stimulation, and I will clearly communicate all matters to you.
“Jenna was absolutely wonderful! Extremely communicative and kept us updated which I really appreciated. She left our home in tip top shape and our pets were very well taken care of. We’ve already rebooked her for her services! 11/10 recommend”

“Keishla took great care of my large dog and cats while I was away. She even won over the affection of my more skiddish kitten! From the meet and greet, through the end of the sit, Keishla was respectful, responsive, and professional. She spent plenty of time playing with the animals, kept the house clean, and sent several updates and pictures throughout the sit. I would happily book her again!”
“Mary was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog with her (our first time leaving him with someone besides family). She sent adorable photos throughout the week. She communicated with us prior to, during and after the house sitting. I think our dog Zac wanted to go home with her! We will definitely call Mary again. So glad we found her! Kathy & Brian & Zac”
“Joel took care of my large breed dog in my home over Memorial Day weekend and I am so happy with how everything went. Not only did he accept the job last minute, but he went above and beyond during the boarding, picking up after my dog in the backyard, taking out my trash from the bins in the house, and sending me loving photos everyday. Joel is an excellent caretaker.”
About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have watched family, neighbors and friends animals. From daily walks to belly rubs or just keeping your dog company. I am dedicated to giving you what your pet needs! Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I work from home half of the week / have a flexible schedule. I will make sure to give your pet my full attention when I am with them! I always ensure that I do my best to follow your pets usual routines from feeding schedules to walking times and any special instructions provided.
Northgate pet parents share their Rover experiences
I've worked with several other wonderful house sitters on Rover, but Tricia is exceptional in her professionalism, experience, communication, positivity, and problem solving capabilities. My dear pitbull rescue is a shy boy and typically it takes a few days to feel safe with a new sitter. Tricia had good sense for how to earn his trust and provide care that brought out the best in him. During our work with Tricia, we received detailed updates and photos about Momo's day which was a peace of mind for us on our trip. She promptly communicated with any questions or issues that came up, but Tricia demonstrated good judgement in her decision-making process and was able to accurately support Momo and his needs. Couldn't recommend Tricia enough; she is our first choice for future house sitting and pet care in the future.
I have worked with Mary several times for weekend getaways but this last stay was for almost 3 weeks while I was in Europe. She is organized, reliable, and kind. She is so wonderful with my old boy Marshall. He had a health change right before I left and he needed meds. Mary stepped in without missing a beat to give him the extra care and attention he required. She sent lots of pictures and we even scheduled a FaceTime call so he could hear my voice (and I could see him). I can’t tell you what peace of mind it gave me to know she was taking care of him. And she left my house in perfect condition, as well. I highly recommend Mary. She is a Gem!
Sofia housesat our two dogs for 16 nights. We initially met her months prior and we kept in touch monthly. A couple days prior, she came over for an hour and we went through all the instructions. While we were away, she regularly updated us and ensured we got home without delay. Sofia is very reliable, an effective communicator and provided us with invaluable peace of mind that our dogs and home was being taken care of. Thank you Sofia! We look forward to working with you again!
Stumbling across Christina’s profile in our scramble to find a last minute overnight Petsitter for our pittie a kitty was such a win! She went above and beyond to make our girls feel comfortable and was a great communicator throughout her stay. Would hire her again in a heartbeat (and plan to!)
Hailey always takes great care of our pets, in luding a senior dog who requires extra attention and medication. She sends photos and updates frequently. She is very tidy and leaves our home clean when she departs. If you are looking for a respectful, clean, attentive sitter, look no further.
Kirstin was excellent! We have two dogs, one of which is usually slow to warm up to new people. Kirstin was a pro. She took her time with him, and he warmed up to her in no time. Additionally, she took our boys out for frequent walks, cleaned up after them, and kept the house in great condition. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on everything. We couldn’t be happier; will definitely use her services in the future. A+
