“Gabby is simply the best. She was amazing and flexible with the needs of our senior girl, Jersie. She sent picture updates throughout our trip and kept us in the loop of what was going on. We are so thankful for her compassion and are looking forward to booking with her again ❤️”

“Bethany was wonderful for our first time working with her! She was a great communicator and sent lots of photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. She did everything we asked and we came home to a clean house and happy pets. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands :)”

“We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our pet sitter! She cared for our two dogs and our cat over a long weekend, and from start to finish, the experience was absolutely incredible. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease. She is warm, professional, responsible, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. While we were away, she kept us updated with thoughtful messages and the sweetest photos, which meant so much to us. It was obvious our pets were not only being well cared for — they were happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable in her care. Our dogs can be a handful at times, and our cat definitely has her own personality, but she handled everything with patience, attentiveness, and so much kindness. She followed all instructions perfectly and treated our home with great respect. Coming home to calm, content pets (and a tidy house!) made all the difference. It’s such a gift to travel knowing your animals are in loving, capable hands. We would trust her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter. She is truly the best! 🐾💛”

“Brook was super helpful, picking up a house sitting request on only a few days notice. She made time for a meet and greet before hand and took great care of Lottie.”

“Kathleen watched our pup for a week (our longest time away yet). Our pup was around 9 months old at the time, so despite the extra work that comes with a younger dog, we were very comfortable and reassured while away! She sent daily updates + photos, and we know our girl was cared for like she was her own. Kathleen also fed our fish and left the house in great shape, which we greatly appreciated. Would happily book her again for any future sittings!”

“Elizabeth is WONDERFUL! When you meet her, you know everything will be handled. With just one meet and greet, I knew I was able to get out of town without any worries. When I came home, the dogs were content and satisfied, like they had been well cared for and unbothered by my absence! And as a bonus, she was very respectful of my home and left it exactly as she found it! Elizabeth provides a 10/10 service, and I highly recommend her!”

“Maggie is an incredible sitter! She has taken care of my dog, Nattie, on two separate trips of mine now and it is the most confident I’ve ever been that Nattie is safe, happy, and well looked after while I’m gone. Maggie sends me an update with pictures each day, along with any questions or concerns, and otherwise I can trust I don’t need to worry and enjoy my trip without stressing that something could be wrong. I love getting the pictures and hearing about how everything is going, and knowing Nattie is being given all the treats and walks and attention she needs and deserves. I would recommend Maggie to any dog mom looking for someone reliable and trustworthy!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs for my entire life! I’m apart of several animal rescue organizations, so I’ve received special training on topics such as trauma-informed sheltering. I’m currently working full-time with a VERY flexible schedule. I work from home (downtown) for most of the week, and live close to the office. Your furry friends will receive a lot of attention from me while you’re away! I’m able to be in the home with your animal(s) for the majority of the time you’re away. I give them extra space for the first little bit, so they can get to know and trust me. Their happiness and comfort is extremely important to me!
About: I’ve always had a dog while growing up and have a true love for them! I may not have any pets of my own at the moment but I treat each dog as such. Since I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life I know the kind of love, attention and care they need and ensure to provide all of those traits for this I’m in the process of getting my real estate license so I’m currently working part time mostly at nights, which leaves my mornings and afternoons pretty available to check in/walk your dogs! My current place does not allow me to have pets, but from having my own dogs growing up I know the kind of care it takes to handle a dog in your own home! I would treat both your home and dogs with respect and give your dog the love you need for the time being

“Alecia is amazing. She is great with my kitties, attentive to detail, and communicates about what is going on with them. She stayed here for four days, and I came back to a home that was as clean as when I left it. Thank you, Alecia! I was lucky to find her through Rover and hope she can help next time I travel!”
“Katie was great taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She showed up when she said she would, spent some quality time with him, and sent plenty of pictures and status updates. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”

“Suzanne was great with my new puppy. She arrived on time and was here from 6 am - 4:00. She sent text and photos of my 13 week old puppy. She walked and played all day”

“Katie was amazing with our 2 shepherds. We know they can be a handful but she made us feel comfortable leaving them in her care for the weekend. She sent lots of pictures and updates to put our minds at ease and gave them all the play, treats, and attention they asked for! Definitely will book with Katie again next time we are out of town.”


“Dirk was fantastic. I just got home and both pets were excited, happy, and taken care of. We’ve had issues in the past with sitters but Dirk was communicative and helpful when it came to caring for our pets.”

“Highly recommend! Kristin was fantastic with our dogs. She is easy to communicate with, very experienced and loving with large rescue dogs, and handled our home and pups with great care. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Lauren was the best dog sitter! She kept me updated throughout the week , took great care of my Coco and they had a great time together. Walked him 3 times a day and played with him all day as well as cuddles! She has a lot of experience with pets and I highly recommend her , she also stayed at my place and took great care of it. Thank you from me and Coco🫶🏻”

“Lydia was great with our rescue pitbull! Our dog loved hanging out with her and Lydia was great about keeping us updated and helping us feel at ease during our first time using a Rover sitter. I would highly recommend her :)”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was very young. I am a cat owner to a beautiful tabby named Rally and have cared extensively with dogs as well— from medicine to grooming to walks to care. I will truly care for your animals. I am currently doing gig work of delivery (Instacart and DoorDash), and have open availability for your pups or kitties amazing routines. I am able to drop in for walks, if they need medication, or just need a companion by their side. I hope to be of comfort to your pets. In my clients home, I understand strangers can be stressful. I allow my clients pets to warm up to me and slowly build trust through play and affection. In addition, I am a very clean person and before the end of my stays, I always deep clean before leaving. As I hate to leave a messy house.
Norwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Crystal did a terrific job taking care of Toby again! He seems so comfortable with her and settles in quickly. She is very attentive & checks in with me several times a day with photos too. She cleaned up too & my house looks just like when I left. Thanks Crystal! I will book again!

Katie did a great job with Murphy and kept him happy while I had to go out of town for work. She sent me multiple updates throughout the day talking about walks they went on and what Murph got up to while I was gone. She was great at following the directions I left and I came home to a clean house and a happy dog. I would definitely use her again!

Lauryn took excellent care of Bailey and our home. We had an emergency at the house while Lauryn was watching Nailey overnight. She handle the issue responsiblyy, communicating with us and handling items until my husband could get home. She clearly went above and beyond. I would definitely ask Lauryn to watch Bailey again.
