“Sage was available last minute and we were happy to have him take care of our two Aussie’s while out of town a few days. They were happy and well cared for until his care.”
“Chloe was a great sitter for our dog and two cats. She was very communicative and sent a lot of photos which helped us feel at ease while we were away. Our dog barks a lot when he meets people but she seemed totally unfazed and he warmed up to her quickly. We would definitely book with her again!”

“Emily was the best pet-sitter we have ever had! She was caring, responsible, and had great communication. We received lots of pictures of our fur babies, and she checked in often, putting our minds at ease. We came home to very happy animals and our home was cleaner than how we left it. We will definitely be asking Emily to pet sit again!”


“Cheryl is fantastic!! She is quick to respond, sweet with our big ole 2 year old golden retriever, and the perfect calming presence as you leave town.”

About: 8 years of vet technician experience, CPR administration of medicine. Knowing behavior and most important making sure they feel as if they are at home. My name is Brittany, I have full availability. I am looking to make this my full time job so I can finish online college for my bachelor's in psychology and attend to my daughter. I go by Desirae as well. I have a fenced in back yard and also enough bedrooms to separate any that need separated. If I go to someone's home I will do as they ask.
“Caitlin did a fantastic job with my crew. Sent plenty of pictures -which showed her giving my kitties and my dog plenty of attention. My dog seemed to be enjoying the time she spent with Caitlin. I ok forward to getting to have her pet sit for me again!”

About: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.
“One of the most positive dog and house sitting experiences I’ve had. Caroline was attentive, communicative and creatively playful with my two dogs. They loved her so much. Already booking my next visit with her. T”

“John was very communicative and took great care of my two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Photos or videos each day helped me feel less sad while away. Also, he watered my plants & took great are of my home. I highly recommend John & will call upon him in the future.”

“Grace and her pup Theo were great!! She sent great updates and it made me feel so good knowing that when my pup was left alone Theo was there to keep her company! Would highly recommend!!”


“Tina is a FANTASTIC pet sitter! She stayed at our house and took care of our large dog Rodrigo for two weeks while we were out of the country. We returned to a very happy pup, healthy plants, and a well-cared-for home. We had tremendous peace of mind thanks to Tina's frequent updates with photos, and before we left she made sure to ask lots of questions and get everything clarified to maintain Rodrigo's normal routine. She went above and beyond in every way, and I would gladly recommend her to others. We will surely be asking Tina back when we have to travel again! This was our first experience with Tina and with Rover.com, and we couldn't be happier!”

“Took excellent care of my dogs yet again! One of them had surgery two weeks prior so Abby was tasked with carrying her (~40lbs) up and down flights of stairs. Abby always goes above and beyond. I highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs!!”

About: I lost my own dog, Maika, a few years ago. She was 14 years old but it was way too early … I’m not ready to get a new dog myself, so Rover has been perfect. I moved to New Orleans a few years ago from Minnesota, where I was also an active member of Rover. My partner, Jonathan, and I bought a house that was built in 1909 — originally as an outdoor market in Holy Cross. It’s now a huge open space attached to a large fenced in yard. Dogs love it!. The dogs hang with me and I usually leave the door open to the back yard, which is basically a mini park with several fruit trrees. The neighborhood itself is also wonderful, there’s a large open field that is fenced in, I a great place for playing fetch or chasing frisbees. The levee is also perfect for long morning or evening walks. I''m a writer and work from home, so having a pup or two around is a real pleasure. I often take the dogs on walks or runs along the levee. But there’s also plenty of space in the house in yard if they just want to chill at home. Usually I work and puddle about doing arts and crafts and doggy's tag behind. The yard has both sunny spots and nice shade… Perfect for the pups.
“Madelynn did a great job caring for our babies! She frequently sent us pictures, videos and updates, which we really appreciated. Each time she sent us pics and videos, our babies looked happy and relaxed. We are so grateful to her!”


“Adam was the best! My boys are super clingy and he gave them both attention. He also took the laundry back and did it all and left the house cleaner than when I left. He will definitely be a go to sitter for me.”

“Joe has been an amazing help and I will absolutely use his help again. On top of being extremely professional and putting great attention to detail with all the requests I had for watching my dogs, Joe has a friendly and positive personality. He pays close attention and showed that he was ready and willing to accommodate for any needs the dogs have or that I have in order to know my pups are safe and taken care of. He communicates well while I was away and also gave me peace of mind on a routine bases. Highly recommend, especially if you are living on base since Joe already has access to base housing and will not require additional waivers or guest passes.”

“Aziz has been amazing on every front. When I needed a pet sitter with almost zero notice, he was at my house the next day. He was flexible with timing, always responsive, and kept me up to date. My dogs loved spending time with him and were all over him. He took great care of my house, too. He’s a smart, reliable, and compassionate sitter who I will ABSOLUTELY use again.”
About: Greetings, y’all! My name is Ashley, and I’m a public health graduate student. I am originally from the east coast (Maryland, New Jersey, Philly, NYC), and I’m a recent transplant from the southwest (Austin, TX). I’m currently working remotely and attending my Master of Public Health classes online so I have open availability to care for your pets while you’re away. I want to house and pet sit because we love to help people, their pet family members and their plants. I have my own “doghter” named Zoë, a 9-year-old black Lab that I rescued at 8 weeks old. When I decided to start planning to move abroad, I learned how house and pet sitting could allow me to have flexibility and new adventures as I travel internationally. As I prepare to move forward beyond the borders of the United States, I am new to exploring this platform through house sits in the city where I currently live. I want to pet sit in my own neighborhood because I’m accumulating reviews so that I can facilitate my move abroad where I plan to go to school, work remotely and house sit internationally. Since I'm planning to leave eventually, I have reduced the size of my container garden so I'm excited to have some houseplants and gardens that I will be able to tend.
Old Aurora pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah is amazing… She walked in and could read the personalities of each one of our dogs within one minute of meeting them. She is clearly an animal lover and will take great care of your home and your pets. One of the best we’ve ever had! Thank you so much Sarah for watching our pups!!
We had Caroline stay at our house and care for our very energetic one year old lab and our old man cat. She had no problem handing our dog’s high energy or our cat’s grumpiness. She took great care of them and our home. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Madelyne did a wonderful job of caring for our home and cats. She went above and beyond the call of duty by taking extra measures to save some of our newly planted flowers. She also washed and folded the sheets and towels we used, something we very much appreciate. Thank you, Madelyne, for doing such a great job!
Sage was very caring and attentive to our two rescue dogs. He sent text and photo updates daily, gave meds and food on a schedule, and gave them lots of love. This was the second time he watched our dogs at our home, and he will be the first dogsitter we contact for future housesits!
