“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing. Not only did she care for my animals but she treated them as they were her own. Before I left for my trip she told me “don’t worry they’re in good hands”. She didn’t lie when she said that. If I need a dog sitter again I will be contacting her!”
“As always, Melissa is the best, and we are so lucky to have her to look after our pets!! She is so responsive, sends great photos of our cats, and gives us so much peace of mind when we are away. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“Kourtney was communicative and open to coordinating a meet & greet prior to scheduling our drop in. She was responsive and followed our care instructions closely the day of the drop in. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future. 😊”
“My search is over! I was hesitant to return to the Rover app after having family care for my now 13yr old yorkie while away. Heather has such a patient and attentive personality that put me at ease and that is impressive as a Type A dog mom!! I'm already planning to rebook with her!!!”
“Terry did drop in visits with our dog Callie while we were on vacation. She was so thorough and sent updates after every visit! She took wonderful care of our dog and it was also a relief to have her drop in at our house knowing everything was good while we were away! Terry is a great dog sitter and we will definitely hire her again!! We give her a 5 star rating!! Thanks so much Terry!”
“Leo has been letting our 2 huskies out daily through the work week for 2+ months now. He has been very kind and patient with our fur babies (one of our dogs is 13 years old and needs a lot of extra attention). Leo always makes sure to keep us updated on our dogs and has been very reliable. Highly, highly recommend Leo to watch your fur babies!”
About: I have owned dogs throughout my whole life. At one point Our pack totaled 6. I’ve owned 2 horses, a guinea pig, a rabbit, and a cat. I worked as an apprentice vet tech until the veterinarian died unexpectedly of a heart attack. I have recently pursued more education regarding grooming. I have groomed my own dogs and friends dogs over the years. I am conscientious and will never allow a dog to be in pain seeking medical care immediately. I would like it to be part time to start with the option of going full time further down the road. I am working on grooming lessons, and my current part time job. I believe in being observant of their behaviors and to respond accordingly. Our dogs receive much love and play time. They are allowed to be with us and on our furniture. I realize that many owners frown upon that and I will honor their wishes when caring for their pet
About: I have been house sitting overnight since I was 14. I have experience working with dogs, cats, mice, and flying squirrels. Believe it or not, I have taken care of dogs who were indoor-trained only.I am also an experienced dog walker- not just with my own dogs but with friends' dogs that I've loved as my own. I will be working part time over the summer (8-12 Monday-Thursday) so I will have afternoons and nights available during the week. I also have most weekends free. I abide by the safety precautions at the homes I stay at (fences, ring cameras, etc). When I stay with indoor cats, I take extra precautions when leaving the house to make sure the cats don't escape.
“Ashley was amazing and took the best care of our fur baby! Our kitty was comfortable with her right from the get go. She sent us video and photo check ins everyday that put our minds at ease while we were away. We really felt Huey was in the best hands.”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life since I was little. Growing up, my neighbors' and friends' dogs became honorary family members through countless walks, and I attended a summer camp held by the Humane Society to expand my pet care knowledge. When I was a teenager, we adopted a pet of our own - an elderly dog with a lot of special needs. Later on, I held a summer job on an educational farm, where I cared for a variety of farm animals on a daily basis and facilitated safe interactions with visitors. More recently, I've expanded my repertoire to include cats and house sitting. Right now I am available for full days on Sunday and Wednesday and nights from 6 pm to 8 am the rest of the week. I cannot board pets in my own home but am committed to meeting your pets' specific needs at your home or on walks. I find it best to have a conversation with prospective clients ahead of time about their expectations.
“Tina went above and beyond for our pup. She was caring and attentive to our dog’s needs and was willing to engage with our dog on her terms. They became fast friends and I can’t recommend Tina more.”
“Rachel was so wonderful in taking care of my fur baby as well as his buddy that we are dog sitting for the next week! Rachel did everything we asked plus more and handled the two big pups with ease! I will absolutely be reaching out to Rachel anytime my husband and I are away!”
“Doreen was an amazing sitter for Sadie! She updated me with a lot of pictures, videos, and description of her visit every day. She is very communicative and it’s obvious she loves animals. I’m so happy to have met her and completely trust her taking care of Sadie. 😊”
About: I don’t have my own pet anymore as he passed from old age. I like to take care of other people’s pets when they are on vacation and care for them with as much love as if they were my own. I will stay at your home if needed , schedule potty break services as well. I work at an elementary school so let out before I go to work and right after, evenings and bed time. I will take care of pets in clients home with care plan that fits the pets needs. Give them plenty of attention and care to take away any worries when you are away.
“Isabella was absolutely amazing and trusting in taking care of my dog :) she went above and beyond each stop by for him to make sure he was happy and felt loved. I will absolutely rebook Isabella next time I’m out of town!”
About: I'm very good at leading dogs on walks and getting them to like me as well. It's important to have a balance in that sense. I can walk dogs or feed pets before and after work. I usually work 7-3 Monday through Friday at EB with weekends off for fun walks and hanging out. I feed pets, get them water, walk dogs on a leash and pick up after the dogs followed by a nice pet and maybe a little treat :)
“As a first time Rover client, I could not have been more please with Samantha! She was absolutely fantastic with my cat, respectful, and sent me so many great pics and updates to reassure me my kitty was doing well during my absence. I'll be reaching our to Samantha next time I leave town. Thank You Samantha for your wonderful and loving care!”
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals. I’ve had 1 bird, 1 ferret, 5 cats, and 6 dogs. I’ve trained 2 Dogs to obey basic commands and good potty habits. Im available for boarding on Fridays through Sundays. I work from home on Friday and I don’t work the weekends at all. I can also be flexible during week days as needed. I take my dogs for walks every 3 hours or at their request. We play fetch and tug-o-war in my backyard. My basement is a complete doggy daycare.
About: I have hands on experience with both young and senior dogs, as well as large and small breeds. I currently care for my own two pups, a playful 2 year old Newfoundland and a sweet 13 year old Shih Tzu. This means I’m well versed in managing very different energy levels, needs, and personalities all under one roof. In addition, I understand the importance of gentle care for seniors, including medication routines, mobility support, and extra patience. At the same time, I can keep up with the energy, training needs, and socialization of younger dogs. Whether your dog is a tiny lap companion or a big, goofy cuddlebug, I provide personalized attention, safety, and love like they’re my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work around 35 hours a week over 6 days, but most of my shifts are only 4–5 hours long, which gives me plenty of time each day to focus on the pets in my care. I usually only have one longer shift a week, up to 9 hours on Saturdays, but I always plan my pet care responsibilities around that in advance to make sure every animal gets the attention, playtime, and care they need. Because I’m used to managing my time between work and my own two dogs (a senior Shih Tzu and a young Newfoundland), I’ve built a routine that allows me to be present, dependable, and flexible when caring for other pets too. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment that keeps them feeling safe and secure in their own space. Whether it’s a dog, cat, or another companion animal, I stick closely to their usual routine feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and anything else they need to stay happy and healthy. I adapt to each pet’s personality, whether that means quiet company, energetic play, or extra patience and care for seniors or shy animals. I also treat your home with respect keeping things clean, following your instructions, and making sure everything is just as you left it. My goal is simple: to make your pets feel cared for, loved, and stress free while you're away.

She has also walked other friends and coworkers dogs and they too seem to have enjoyed having vanessa take care of their pets. Vanessa has also done some grooming and have been satisfied with her work.”
Lauren S.Star Sitter
“Lauren has stayed at my home several times and cared for my cats. They seemed to enjoy having Lauren around. They were well-fed, boxes were clean, and they even cuddled with her. She followed all of my instructions and left my home clean and tidy. Cats are generally easy but to have someone they warm up to is a treasure.”

Molly P.
“My younger sister, Molly, has always enjoyed an affinity with animals and even undertook a specialized course regarding the care and temperament when I was away at college. I witnessed her skill and commitment firsthand, though, when she spent several weeks dogsitting our beloved-but very traumatized - Bernewfie, Dozer. Adopted from an abusive childhood, Dozer’s size, strength, and volatile temperament necessarily gave us pause when considering the arrangement… but we needn’t have worried! From the first day to the last day of his care, we were struck by how calm and trusting our pup was with Molly and how downright inseparable the two soon became. We could not have asked for a more responsible, intuitive, or hassle-free dogsitter than Molly and, I am willing to wager, neither could you!”

Elizabeth S.
“Liz is an amazing, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter! I highly recommend Liz to care for your pets. She is incredible with my dogs and cats, including our dog Murphy who is extremely nervous and afraid of new people; they all love spending time with Liz. Leaving my dogs behind when we go on vacation is always sad but knowing they are in such great hands is comforting.”

My dog always gets extremely excited to see him and I would highly recommend him for watching your pets!”
