“Haley is so kind and thoughtful! Checked in with early in the day about the bad weather we were expecting at night to see if our dog needed any extra care. Can't wait to book with Haley again!”
“Brooke was incredible! She gave me complete peace of mind during my trip, knowing my pets were in such great hands. She sent the cutest photos and regular updates of walks with my dog and playtime with my cat. She was super responsive, and both of my pets loved her right away. I’m so glad I found her! I'll be booking with her every time I travel from now on.”
“Kayla went above and beyond for our boy! She is super reliable and took such amazing care of Jax! Just to add how amazing she is, our garage code wasn’t working and she stayed over an hour locked out trying to figure out a solution to make sure she got to Jax while we were out of town!! A+ from us!”
“Ty was great with my pups! He was a great communicator throughout the process. One of my dogs is reactive to other dogs, which is my greatest concern when someone else is with them. He took the necessary precautions and there were no issues. He was a respectful guest in our home. Would definitely use Ty again!”
About: I am comfortable with all dog breeds and temperaments, including high-energy breeds such as German Shepherds. I have had senior and medically complex dogs, and currently work in the medical field so I am comfortable with medical care. I enjoy training and playing with pups, and would be so excited to meet yours! I work full-time during the week, but can adjust my schedule to let pets out every 8 hours. I am happy to do walks before or after work, and can dedicate more time on the weekends. I am available for pet sitting any night. I will do everything I can to make your pet comfortable in the way that works for them - are they clingy? Need a little space and time to get comfortable? Treat motivated or praise motivated? I will always be respectful of your pet and your space and ask you what that means to you!
“This was our first time using the Rover app to find a pet sitter. Ashley and her family took great care of our dog Jack during his stay with them and he made himself at home. It was great getting a picture or two everyday of him and how he was doing. We’ll be reaching out again.”
“5 stars for Julia! She took incredible care of my cat and was super reliable. I came home to a happy pet and a clean house. She is professional, thoughtful, and left absolutely no mess. I highly recommend her!”
“As always, Sara is amazing. We have multiple pets and she manages them with ease while we are away. It's hard to explain how great it feels to be able to trust someone so fully with our furry family members! Thank you, Sara!🐾”
“Nikki was amazing with our 8 year old Cavachon, Coco, while we were out and about and still adjusting to a big move! She was extremely responsive, kind, personable, and sent us pictures when we were gone. We couldn’t ask for anyone better! Thank you Nikki!!”
About: My house runs on cat hair and Alaskan Klee Kai energy — Annie, Mr. Darcy, and Benni keep me well-trained. I offer drop-ins, dog walking, and house sitting. I'll follow your routine or adapt to your pet's needs. Adept at medication administration, including injections. You'll hear from me — photos, texts, video updates, FaceTime if you just need to see their face. I'm easy to reach and big on communication. My cancellation policy is as flexible as possible, because schedules change and I understand that. Available weekday afternoons and evenings, weekends, and overnights. All breeds, all sizes, all personalities welcome. Your pet's in good hands — Benni can vouch. Pet care is a priority in my weekly routine, not an afterthought. I'm consistently available weekday afternoons and evenings, weekends, and overnights. When I'm with your pet, I'm actually present. My time is theirs; they're the point. Spending time with your pets is a privilege. Your home is your pet's comfort zone. I stick to what works for them — their space, their schedule, their quirks. I'm a careful observer, so if something seems off behaviorally or physically, I'll flag it rather than wait and see. I'm attentive to behavioral changes or anything that seems off, and I'm comfortable managing medications, including injections, so pets with medical needs are always welcome. The goal is simple: your pet feels safe, and so do you.
“Raquel was fantastic. We used her for house sitting with our doggo who doesn’t love being boarded. She treated him like he was her own and he was one happy dude when we got back. We felt totally comfortable having Raquel stay at our place. She communicated well and sent us regular updates with pictures. Will definitely book again!”
“Meredith did an amazing job with my pets. She was very responsive and kept me updated. She was able to get my shy kitty to come out and be social. Mika my shy kitty normally stays hidden when ppl are over. Both my dogs loved her and got many cuddles. I am very grateful at what an amazing job she did and would def rebook again.”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with Axel and Layla! I needed last second care for them and she took great care of them! She was punctual, communicative, and open to do more for them. Hands down the greatest experience I’ve had on Rover for the pups! 12/10 stars and would highly recommend her! Your fur-children will be in the best care with her!”
About: I have been around dog’s of all sorts for quite some time, i used to work at a dog grooming place as a bather so i would handle all types of different dogs! i have experience in puppy training, puppy care, senior care, walking and bathing if needed! I have a lot of free time right now, i would rather be spending my time taking care of furry friends then doing nothing! Your pet will get the most lovings with me :) I live on a farm, part of my yard is fenced in and some of it isn’t completely closed. it is a very big backyard tho plenty of room for your furry friend to run around on a longer leash!
“Hollea took great care of both our pups! Chesna and Archie couldn't wait for her to come in the morning. She played with and walked them with plenty of rest time in between. We 100% plan to use Hollea in the future!”
“Lydia is fantastic! She sat for our two large dogs and our house while we were out of town for four days and I couldn’t be happier with the excellent level of care she provided. We came home to a very clean house and very happy pups. Would definitely hire again!”
“Sydney helped us out with a VERY last minute booking and still made us feel at ease that Ember (our pup) was in good hands. She went out of her way to do a meet and greet with us the day we connected with her and was very communicative throughout the stay whenever we reached out! We will definitely use her again!”
“Shannon stayed with our 2 dogs & newly adopted cat for a few days. Her attention to all of the different instructions & communication was exceptional. We received regular updates & photos. Would absolutely recommend Shannon for pet sitting.”

Des is hands down the best sitter we’ve ever worked with. This is our fourth or fifth time booking her, and at this point she’s our go-to without question. She takes incredible care of Minnie and is so attentive to the little things that make a difference. You can tell Minnie genuinely loves her, which says everything. Her updates are consistently thoughtful, detailed, and actually enjoyable to read, which makes being away so much easier. I never have to wonder how things are going. Des is reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the animals she looks after. We feel very lucky to have found her and will absolutely keep booking with her.
Holly was absolutely incredible. From the very beginning she came over ahead of time to fully understand everything that was needed, which gave us a ton of confidence right away. She went above and beyond in every way. Her communication was excellent; she sent regular updates and photos, and we always felt completely at ease knowing our child and dogs were in her care. What really stood out was her commitment. She even drove through a blizzard to make sure the dogs were let out and properly cared for. That level of reliability and dedication is rare. We would highly recommend Holly to anyone and would absolutely trust her again without hesitation.
Kristine was great! She was very flexible for a short notice request. She communicated & sent lots of pictures while we were away. Griffin seems like he had a great time & was well taken care of. We would definitely recommend and have her watch our dog again!
Anna (aka Caroline) was just wonderful. She took excellent care of the house and our dogs while we were out of town. She was so meticulous about learning their quirks and she sent great updates. We’d certainly seek her services again and I’d recommend her to anyone!
