“Brittney did fantastic with my 2 dogs. They seem very happy when I came home. Brittney also kept my home as she found it. Definitely recommend Brittany and will consider her to sit my dogs again.”

“Jennifer stayed with our older pup and cat while we were away for the weekend. She did an amazing job keeping us updated and sending me photos of our animals. I would definitely book her again.”

“The timing could not have been worse, our Wheaton Terrier, Winston fell a little sick just as we were about to go away for a few days. Fortunately for us, we found John on Rover.com a couple days before. He looked after Winston, performing all the daily routine activities, (scheduled feedings, walks twice per day, etc), as well as administering medication since Winston was feeling is best. John provided a few pictures and videos as well. John did a great job watching over Winston.”

I needed house sitting services for my pup while I was traveling & I had very high expectations of care for my pup who has separation anxiety & she exceeded my expectations.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my lifelong love for animals and the care I’ve provided to my own furry family. I have three amazing dogs and a cat who fill my days with joy, and they’ve taught me so much about patience, attention, and the unconditional love pets bring to our lives. On top of that, I’ve spent over five years working with animals, from caring for wildlife during an internship to looking after pets as a kennel attendant for VIP Boarding! I’ve worked and studied animal behavior throughout college, which has helped me better understand how animals think, feel, and communicate. I’ve learned to handle all kinds of personalities—shy, energetic, or senior pets needing extra care—and I always approach every animal with love and understanding. Your pets will be cared for like they’re part of my own family! I work Tuesdays to Fridays 8am to 6pm and Saturdays 10am to 5pm. Sundays and Mondays are TBD, but I am usually flexible and free! I’d maintain their usual routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime, to keep them comfortable. I tailor my approach based on each pet's needs, whether that’s providing mental stimulation for dogs or ensuring cats have a quiet retreat. I’m also experienced in administering medication if needed, ensuring their health and well-being are prioritized. I communicate regularly with pet owners to provide updates and follow any special instructions. My goal is to make sure pets feel secure, loved, and cared.
“Amelia provided excellent care for my pets while I was away. She was punctual, responsible, and went above and beyond with feeding, walking, and giving them plenty of love. Communication was great, and she sent updates, communicated her concerns, and sent photos. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands.”
“Courtney did a great job house sitting for us! She was easy to communicate with and sent lots of updates while we were away. I’d definitely recommend her for any pet sitting needs!”

“Catherine was excellent! She took great care of my pup and was very communicative throughout her stay. She also left my home super clean and well cared for. Will definitely be booking her again!”

Rachel did a wonderful job caring for our two dogs while we were away. From the moment we left, we felt confident they were in good hands. She made sure they were well cared for, kept to their routines, and gave them the attention they needed. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after, which gave us great peace of mind. Rachel also treated our home with genuine respect. Everything was exactly as we left it, and it was obvious she took pride in caring for both our pets and our house. It’s always reassuring to come home to a clean, well-maintained home after a trip. Communication throughout our time away was reliable and appreciated. Knowing our dogs were doing well allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying about them. Rachel proved to be dependable, responsible, and trustworthy, and those qualities are invaluable when trusting someone with your pets and home. We are very grateful for the excellent care she provided and would not hesitate to book her again in the future. We highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a reliable, respectful, and caring pet sitter. She made the entire experience easy and stress-free, and we’re thankful for everything she did
I have a 13-month puppy who has limited experience around new people, let alone being left in the care of someone new without me present. I had a lot of anxiety about traveling but had a once in a lifetime family reunion out of state I needed to attend. This is my first time using Rover and I wasn't sure I would find someone willing to stay with my dog on the Fouth of July, but I was fortunate enough to find Brittney! We liked her after our meet & greet but I still had nerves, not knowing if my puppy would be able to regulate herself (licking, jumping, etc.) with Brittney while I was away. In the past she has struggled to be calm with new people and I worried she would scare a sitter away with hyper behavior. Brittney had the right calm energy and patience, and everything went just fine. In fact my pup even behaved better than I had expected, much more calmly than I thought she would be capable of with someone new/exciting. Despite my rambling care instructions which changed more than once prior to her visit, Brittney figured everything out and was able to manage my pup, even during my neighbors setting off explosives 25 feet in front of my house. She maintains a great attitude and can problem solve (ie. when my pup was not going into her crate voluntarily). And, she was respectful of my home and willing to provide multiples updates for me throughout my time away. When I returned home my pup and house were just as I left them. I would not hesitate to trust her with the care of my pet again in the future, she took great care of my girl!

Amelia stayed at our home for four nights. She was very attentive to our older dog's needs. He quickly became attached to her. She is a great communicator, sending pictures and letting us know how he's doing throughout the day. She was very sensitive to the fact that he barked only to protect her but is really a scaredy cat. The fireworks over July 4th were particularly upsetting for him but she comforted him beautifully. We enjoyed our vacation, knowing our dog was so well cared for. We will definitely ask for her to stay with him again.

ALLIE IS EXTRAORDINARY, AMAZING, SUPERB & SO MUCH MORE!! We simply can't sing her praises loud enough! She stayed in our home and took care of our dog and 2 cats, and we could not be more happy with her and with the loving care that she took of our fur babies and our home. We loved Allie the minute we met her because she is so professional and friendly and outgoing. All of our pets loved her immediately - even my shy, skittish kitties came out of hiding to greet her in our initial meeting. She followed every instruction perfectly and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Her communication was excellent before, during, and even after her stay. She sent regular updates and photos that made it clear our babies were happy and well cared for. She also reached out to ask questions to clarify anything that came up during her stay. Allie went above and beyond our expectations, making sure our home was clean and tidy and even watered our plants and garden! It was obvious from the moment we met Allie that she truly loves and cares about animals, and she treated our pets and our home like like they were her own. If you are looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter, look no further than Allie! We will be trusting her with our pets and our home every time from now on.

Constance was absolutely amazing while house sitting for me. She took exceptional care of my Doberman Eros and my saltwater fish tanks, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with frequent pictures and excellent communication throughout the entire stay, so I always knew everything was going well. It was clear from the updates that Eros was happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention, and my saltwater tanks were cared for with the same level of dedication and attention to detail. I couldn’t have asked for a more reliable, trustworthy, or caring house sitter. Constance treated my home and pets as if they were her own, and I returned to everything in perfect condition. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable who truly goes above and beyond. I will definitely be booking her again!

Super thankful for Serafina! This was the second time she has watched Ollie and stayed in my home. I’ve appreciated the periodic updates, could see that Ollie was a happy dog while in Serafina’s care. The house was well maintained upon my arrival. I’m grateful for her flexibly as my flight was delayed an additional two hours, Serafina did an additional check on Ollie after her original watch time had been completed. Thank you again!

Emily stayed with my pups for a 10 day trip and took incredible care of them. I was able to relax knowing they were in such great hands. She handled my dogs needs (senior meds, exercise nuances, etc.) precisely and my dogs were very content when I got home which says it all! Incredibly grateful for her expertise and professionalism!
