“Matt was awesome and our boys loved him! He checked in frequently, took them on walks, and left our home as it was. We’re looking forward to using him again!”


“We recently had the pleasure of having Sam watch our two dogs for nearly an entire week, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention he provided. Sam went above and beyond, even rearranging his work schedule to make sure our dogs were well looked after. He maintained their regimented routine, preparing their unique meals twice a day and taking them out for potty breaks and exercise an additional 3-4 times per day. His conscientiousness really showed in everything he did. Sam stayed overnight in our home, ensuring our dogs felt safe, secure, and comfortable in our absence. His communication was excellent—he sent us multiple photo updates throughout each day, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear from the photos (and when we returned!) that our dogs were happy, calm, and well cared for. Honestly, I don’t think they even realized we were gone! Sam is incredible with animals, and it’s obvious he has a natural connection with dogs. He’s also friendly, respectful, and trustworthy. Knowing he was there allowed us to enjoy a much-needed vacation without any worry. We’re already planning to book Sam again for our next trip! If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, and dedicated to caring for your pets as if they were his own, we can’t recommend Sam highly enough. Thank you again, Sam!”


“They were great with my baby and had very good communication. Easy to work with and I will always ask them whenever I need someone for my fur baby!!”


“Jessica was amazing! She took excellent care of my little girl. She was attentive, communicative, and responsible. She provided daily updates and made sure Juliet was always safe. Came home to a happy & healthy pup. Would definitely book again. Highly recommend! 😊”


“Christina was great. She was able to sit for my dogs on short notice. She sent updates and pictures several times a day. Both of my dogs are senior and she understood what needs senior dogs have. I'll definitely be booking Christina again.”


“Jeremiah house sat and looked after our two dogs, he kept us updated throughout our trip, sending pictures and recapping the events of their day. He was courteous, professional and our dogs seemed to thrive under his care. This was our first experience with Rover and we really appreciate the level of attention and communication we received. We will definitely book with him again!”


“Saved my can when another pet sitter failed to follow instructions and I had to fire them from a far. Roxanne came in and took great care of my babies. They were calm and happy when I got home.”


“Samantha was the absolute best! It’s not often we leave our pups especially for a week and a half so we were nervous to find someone we trusted to take care them and make them feel good while we were gone- Samantha did that and more! Sent pictures and updates everyday and also we truly could tell she loved being around our pups which gave us a sense of ease. Highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter while you are away!”


“Destiny was fabulous. Lots of pictures, videos, and check-ins, and the dogs loved her. Returned to a house in good order, happy dogs, and great relief at having found MY BABYSITTER!!”


“Braydon was 12/10. I will absolutely be using him in the future if he is available. My dogs were very obviously well taken care of, and it relived a lot of my stress while being gone. Communication and updates were better than any other rover or sitter i’ve used before.”


“Stormy is a dog magnet! My dogs took to her like they'd known her all of their lives the first second they met her! Stormy is very professional and is so kind. I recommend her highly.”


“Dena is amazing and warmhearted when it comes to loving my fur babies! I feel very much at peace and at ease knowing she is in my home giving my babies the attention they need and deserve! I will have her as my nanny moving forward knowing my babies were also very happy and loved on from the pics she sent.”


“Leah is an absolute gem! From start to finish, her communication was top-notch—we felt completely at ease the entire time we were away in Puerto Rico. We didn’t worry for a second, knowing our dogs were in such loving and capable hands. Whiskey and Rye adore her (which says everything), and to top it all off, we came home to a house that was somehow cleaner than we left it! Leah went above and beyond in every way, and we’ll 100% be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Negin was great! She gave updates and photos. She seemed to really care and be attentive to our puppy!”


“Bella was very friendly, provided great care for the critters (while they provided her entertainment lol), and kept the house just as we left it. Would definitely use her again!”


About: Hi, my name is Soleil and I currently attend UTSA online as a Computer Science major. I have hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs as a longterm petsitter. My responsibilities have included giving medication, feeding/exercise/potty schedules, and providing attentive care to pets with anxiety or special needs. I’m committed to creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every animal I look after, and I take care in being dependable, detail oriented, and compassionate. I am a full time online college student at UTSA which allows for a flexible schedule so I can provide consistent and attentive pet care throughout the week. I’m able to adjust my routine as needed to accommodate daily visits, walks, or longterm pet stays. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort. I follow instructions carefully and create a calm, loving environment. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel happy, safe, and at ease while you’re away.

“Kailin was fantastic! She was very easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures, and really seemed to enjoy my animals! I definitely recommend her and will use her again!”


“Ally was amazing with Luna! I'll definatly use her again. It's hard to leave your pets I'm so happy an app like this allows such great services.”


About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, needs, and comfort. I’ve also been a dedicated dog mom to my two pups for more than 7 years, so I know firsthand the love, patience, and attention that pets deserve. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or senior, I’m confident in my ability to provide thoughtful, reliable care tailored to their unique personality. Caring for your pet is more than just my full-time job—it’s something I truly love and feel honored to do. I’m here whenever you need someone you can trust, whether it’s during the week, on weekends, early mornings, late nights, or overnight. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. I provide a safe, cozy, and welcoming home where your dog will feel comfortable and loved. I live in a one-bedroom apartment with my two friendly dogs—a Chihuahua mix and a Boxer—who are both well-socialized and gentle. If your dog prefers or requires their own space, I have a spacious crate available to ensure they feel secure. In my home, pets are treated like family—they’re welcome on the furniture, including the bed, so they can feel right at home. We also enjoy relaxing on the small patio in the mornings, soaking up some fresh air and starting the day together in a calm, peaceful way. When I’m caring for your dog or cat in your home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease in their own space. I take great pride in treating your pet—and your home—with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, snuggles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow your routine closely so your pet feels as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. You can count on me to provide updates, lots of love, and reliable care every step of the way.

“Victoria was a great sitter!! One of the best ones I’ve had and kept me updated with all information a dog mom wants to know when is out of town. I know she took care of Bonnie like her own and I appreciated that very much!!!❤️”
