“Taylor was great!! She follows instructions and my pup absolutely loved her. Taylor was a great communicator and very reliable. I’ll absolutely be using her again!!”

“To be honest, we were a little afraid to leave our two kitties in the hands of a stranger when we considered Rover. But we were so lucky to have Suzanne as our catsitter. She's absolutely wonderful! Coming back from our holidays we found our kitties happier than ever! Thanks Suzanne!”

“Raquel was communicative and reliable when we needed a last-minute drop-in sitter for our cat over the holiday weekend. During the meet & greet, she was very interested in learning about Monty’s habits and needs. While we were away, Raquel sent updates and photos each day, and helped with an unexpected package delivery. It was great to know that Monty was in such good hands - we highly recommend Raquel!”

About: My name’s Regina and I have been a dog lover since my family adopted our first dog when I was only 2 years old. She was my best friend, and ever since then, my friends and family have joked that I love dogs more than people! I walk my two dogs on a daily basis, and I know how difficult that can be when working around a busy schedule. I work remotely so I have the flexibility to accommodate you and your dog's schedule. Since I was 13 I have cared for countless dogs of neighbors, friends, and family while the owners were on vacation or even just stuck at work.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and currently care for two dogs and a cat of my own. Spending time with animals has always come naturally to me & I treat them with patience, attention, and respect, just like family. I also enjoy sending photo updates during visits so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. I’m currently working from home and have a flexible schedule throughout the week. I currently offer drop-in visits and in-home sitting, and I’m happy to provide dependable care for your pets while you’re away. I care for pets in my client’s home with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own pets. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. At this time, I provide care in clients’ homes only. Comfortable with different energy levels, routines, and administering basic medications if needed.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for years and have cared for pups at every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who needed extra patience, gentleness, and consistency. I’ve raised one dog through his puppy years and lovingly supported two others through their golden years, so I’m comfortable with training basics, routines, mobility changes, medications, and slower-paced walks when needed. Over the years, friends have trusted me with their dogs while they travel, and now that I have more space in my home—and a large, fully fenced yard—I’m excited to do this regularly. My dog, Ochosi, and I love getting outside for long walks and hikes, and I’m happy to tailor activity levels to each dog’s age, energy, and needs—whether that means an adventurous trail day or a cozy afternoon of cuddles. As a bonus, my roommate is also a longtime dog lover and former dog owner, so your pup will get extra attention and affection beyond just me and Ochosi. Between our household, your dog will be surrounded by care, play, and consistency while you’re away. As an empowerment coach, I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs I care for throughout the day. I do have occasional workshops, classes, and client visits that take me out of the house part-time, but I always plan my schedule carefully so pups get plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I focus on keeping routines consistent, energy balanced, and tails wagging. I tailor walks, playtime, and downtime to each pup’s age and personality—from adventurous hikes to gentle strolls and cozy evenings. With a big fenced yard for safe outdoor play, plenty of affection from me, Ochosi, and my dog-loving roommate, and regular photo updates for you, your dog will feel secure, happy, and right at home.
“We went on a 10 day trip to Europe. One of our dogs is a pit/rottie mix so we were especially worried about a sitter entering the house while we were away. Helene was amazing. She got along with the dogs wonderfully. We received photos of our babies playing every day. It was such a relief. We weren't worried at all with our dogs in Helene's care. Helene helped make our vacation worry-free.”

Norwood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alli has done such an incredible job with my puppy. She was always on time, was flexible with change of instructions during visits, took lots of pictures, and gave him the attention he needed! She is reliable and a great help. I would 100% work with Alli again and would highly recommend!

Matthew and Christianna were excellent — punctual, communicative, and sent regular photo updates. Our dog was very comfortable and not stressed while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a clean, tidy house. For us, it was such a relief to be away and not worry about a thing. Highly recommended!
