“Stephen and his family are the absolute best! My dogs were obviously comfortable and excited to see them daily. I received photos and updates every day, and am so happy to have trusted sitters. I would highly recommend them!”
About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15. I’ve dealt with a range of task when it comes to pets, and have cared for animals big to small and young to old. I am extremely comfortable with pets and even have a dog and cat of my own! Since I have pets of my own, I frequently find myself walking my dog or spending one on one time with my cat. Pet care is a natural part of my day to day life! I love to give pets and make a pet feel cared for and safe. A calm environment is sometimes all an animal needs to feel loved!
“Thank you for loving our energetic dog while we were away!!! Lindsey was amazing and Bruno was so well taken care of. She sent lots of updates, pictures and videos! 🐶”
“It was a pleasure having Christina watch our Yorkie Evie. We appreciated her thorough communication and professionalism. We felt very comfortable having her dog-sit Evie while she is having a leg issue and required extra care. Evie looks forward to hanging with Christina again soon”
About: I've worked for a small pet sitting business (dog walking and cat sitting) for 9 years! I've taken care of puppies since they were little until they're huge! I can handle (easygoing) big dogs (Newfies) and am a total cat lover, too! I'm especially a sucker for senior pets. I'm responsible and reliable and always get to my appointments on time. I've done everything from walked, fed, given fresh water, cleaned litter boxes, bathed, and administered topical meds. I’m starting my own pet sitting business and am looking for both regular dailies clients as well as pet sitting/vacation clients! This is what I wish my full time job to be. I follow client instructions and make sure everything is thoroughly clear and understood prior to visit with your pet! Just give me your preferences beforehand. I am a very thorough communicator and will provide thorough updates! The only animals I am uncomfortable with visiting are ones with aggressive streaks- I've been bitten before and it's never fun!
“Dropped in for agreed upon dates/times. Sent pictures regularly. Played with my dogs every day. Brought in some packages that got delivered while we were out. Couldn’t be happier! Would absolutely rebook!”
About: I grew up with every kind of pet you can imagine and took care of senior dogs to little kittens! I love them all so much! I am a SAHM with one kid in school so I have extra time on my hands.

I have a fenced in pool and pond. I would always be outside with them.

I do like to take at least 2 days for myself every week, but I like to keep my schedule fairly open and flexible our home is a one bedroom apartment with ac/heating and plenty of open space for ourselves and any animal or animals that might need somewhere to stay
“Bri was amazing. She took care of my pups as if they were her own. She took her time and they responded by warming up to her more each day as they are really shy with new people. Snoopy and Kiwi have a new best friend! Thank you”

“Donna was great with working with me (first time Rover user) and my scaredy dog. She was very patient with my reluctant pup and by her 3rd visit, Donna had gained my dog’s trust. Donna provided clear communication and worked with me to find the best times for her visits. Thanks Donna!”
About: Hi, I’m Margot! I’ve been pet-sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was 9 years old. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, including pets who need medication and extra care. I am dependable, flexible, and truly love animals. Taking care of pets has always been something I enjoy, and I’m always happy to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Since I work from home as an artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I love being able to spend time with animals throughout the week, whether that’s stopping by for visits, walks, feeding, or just keeping pets company. I also have a cat of my own who I love very much, so animal care has always been a natural part of my life. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I follow their normal routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away.
“Denille was absolutely fantastic! Hooch quickly felt comfortable with her and was excited for her visits. She maintained his schedule on time and accurately. I wouldn’t hire anyone one else if I am in need of a sitter. Another upside is I think my Hooch is planning vacations for me so he can see Denille again.”

Carly was fantastic and was super communicative from the start as it was our first time using Rover. She provided great updates and always responded quickly to any questions we had. It’s always tough having someone new come in and take care of your dog, but Carly was amazing and dasher loved her right away. We can’t wait to use Carly again in the future.
Kelsey put my mind at easy while out of town for a week. I booked Kelsey for daily drop-in visits for my cat and senior dog and it was evident that they both warmed up to her very quickly. She administered medication and provided detailed updates. I was able to have a stress free trip and will be booking with her again.
Gillian provided top-notch care for my four dogs, and I'm so thankful to have found her. After meeting the dogs, she put my mind at ease, and the daily photos she sent were a lovely surprise. When we returned home, the dogs were happy and relaxed, a testament to Gillian's excellent care. We'll be sure to book her again for our next trip - she's definitely earned our trust!
Chuck was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Atlas! Atlas is a large breed with a very 'big' personality and can be a bit intimidating with his barking at first, but Chuck handled him with professional ease and a great 'dogs will be dogs' attitude. We really appreciated the detailed visit summaries and the photos he sent for every single drop-in—it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Chuck is professional, reliable, and clearly great with animals. Atlas was so happy when we returned! We will definitely be booking Chuck again for our future trips and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.
I can’t recommend Lindsey highly enough! She is reliable, incredibly kind, and truly goes above and beyond for my Ruby girl. Every walk is handled with care, and it shows—our dog is happier, calmer, and absolutely adores her and her sidekick Paco!! Communication is always clear and prompt, and the photos and updates after each walk give me total peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will treat your dog like family, this is the person to call!
Krista has been so wonderful with my dog these past few years. I am so grateful for her level of care and kindness. My dog loves when she takes him for walks and is genuinely excited to see her! Thank you Krista for always coming through and providing my dog with such amazing care. Koa loves you! ♥️
Robert was very responsive, professional and an amazing person. We had a cancelation the day before we were to leave for our wedding and Robert showed up within 10 minutes of accepting the request. We felt so at ease once we met and every time Robert stopped by there was an excellent recap of his visit with Persi and great pictures too! We even asked Robert to visit 5 times one day and he was more than happy to take care of this. Excellent all around, will definitely rebook with him in the future!
