“Kristin was a fabulous animal sitter. She fed all three of our cats and both of our dogs which all of them have different food that they eat. She let him out before and after their breakfast and before and after their dinner, she stayed with them overnight, so they wouldn’t miss us . I would recommend Kristin for any of your pet sitting needs.”

She is extremely reliable and my pets (a dog and 2 cats) really like her. If you need someone reliable, trustworthy and dependable, I highly recommend Brandi. She’ll treat your pets as her own!”

“Maddison has a great passion for caring for animals. She has always been responsible, trustworthy and loving when taking care of my cats and dogs. She is kind and patient with those pets that can be a little more challenging. She asks questions and will reach out to make sure if she has any questions or concerns. I have recommended her to friends and family. My fur babies love her.”


11. Ramona R.


“Ramona was a wonderful sitter for our two pups. She is extremely responsive and communicates frequently. We felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were away and our dogs fell in love with her. She sent lots of photos and videos of our pups and actively played with them in the house and our backyard. Ramona truly made sure they were cared for when we had a family emergency and had to leave the state quickly. I absolutely recommend her if you need someone trust worthy and honest!”


12. Jennifer M.


“Jennifer was incredible! We did a house sitting with our pup and she not only took the best care of our dog, but the house as well -- which was above and beyond what we expected. She is very knowledgeable about dog care and we would highly recommend her to any one of our friends or family!”

15. Dannielle C.

“Dannie was amazing. This was my 1st time using Rover or having a sitter in my home. Dannie kept me updated throughout the day as well as sent lots of pictures. It was reassuring knowing that I didn't have to completely disrupt my fur baby's daily routines while I was away. Will definitely be using Dannie again.”


16. Kassandra O.
About: I've always pet sat for my friends and family. I started when I was in high school. I sincerely just love animals and it makes me happy to help others being around pets. I just do Doordashing in my free time. So I can work the two apps around each other! I started Rover last year but stopped to try other things instead and take care of my health more. I'm currently down 110lbs and ready to take care of your beautiful animals! I have my two cats right now. I'm also the one my friends and family always ask to take care of their pets when on vacation. I'm the type of person to stop and move the turtle out of the road or help a lost dog find it's way back home.


17. Wolfe S.
“Wolfe is amazing with animals they have wanted to be a vet since they could talk. They love learning everything about dog training and has went to one on one classes to learn more. Every animal loves them I swear. So whether or not your looking for a full time dog walker or cat sitter they are a top choice for best service.”


18. Melissa H.
“Melissa has 4 dogs of her own which 2 are adopted. She is a member of Partners For Pets organization which she has fostered over 20 pups over the last couple of years.”


19. Lisa E.
About: I grew up around dogs and cats. I love spending time with my own and would love to care for yours while you are away! I work full time Monday through Friday but can be flexible with mornings and afternoon check ins during the week with plenty of time for walks and playing in the evenings or weekends. I have elementary aged children that are animal lovers and can also offer extra play time unless you do not want kids around your pets. We are flexible and happy to spend free time with animals! I follow the pet owner’s guidance for check ins, play time, house rules, and pet needs. I am open and flexible to do what you and your pet need to feel safe and cared for while you are away!
