“Marianne went above and beyond during her stay. We had a shelf randomly break and she spent one evening cleaning that all up, she picked up dog piles, and she even stayed into the middle of the night when we had a travel delay so that the pups wouldn’t be alone too long. Very friendly and communicative!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 16 and have more recently taken care of cats from time to time. I am able to give pets medication, if needed. I currently go to school full-time and have no job. I am currently on winter break and will be away from December 26, 2025 - January 1, 2026. I will take care of pets down to the letter of what you need. If I have any questions about anything, I will ask you.
“Trevor was respectful of my home and took good care of both of my dogs while I was away. My younger dog is very timid with strangers and too nervous to eat when I leave sometimes and he warmed up to Trevor very quickly and ate his meals.”

“Nicole and Rose were great! They were flexible with some last minute changes to the sitting. They sent updates and pictures for me to see how the pups were doing. They were very kind and great to communicate with. Can’t wait for them to house sit my pups again!”

“Hanna did a great job communicating her schedule and checking in with photos of my pup so I knew she was happy and at ease the whole time. Hanna was also very respectful of my home, leaving it clean and neat while staying over.”


About: I have trained puppies, taken care of senior dogs and have lots of patience. Animals of all kinds adore me and come up to me all the time. I’m a full-time dog care provider who truly loves what I do. Dogs are a huge part of my life, and I’ve chosen to dedicate my time to making sure they are safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels comfortable and loved. You can relax knowing your dog is in caring and dependable hands. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is happy and doing well. I have a huge fenced in patio and I have purified water for the animals. I have everything scotch guarded so any mess doesn’t matter.
“Nicole watched our kitty for a long weekend and we didn't worry one second. She is so devoted to our furry families. She did a great job of keeping her happy and comfortable. Our kitty is older so needs more help and compassion! Nicole is a delightful person and we felt she is like our family. We hope we can have her back again..”

“Michael was wonderful with our 4-year old lab mix, Vito. He sent pics multiple times a day and kept our pup happy while we were gone. We would definitely book Michael again!”

“Taylor was great with my leash reactive senior boy, he immediately loved Taylor during our meet & greet & I can tell he was well taken care of. Taylor provided consistent communication and pictures throughout the stay & followed my home rules/requests. I really appreciate that I came home to a vacuumed and clean home as well as Taylor being able to accommodate this stay as a new client on short notice. Would highly recommend”

“When Emily took care of my girl over spring break, I was nothing but comfortable the entire time being away from my dog. She was very loving and kind to her: always made sure her water bowl was full, fed her on time, walked her and let her sniff everything, but most importantly, Emily gave Jill space to get to know her on Jill’s terms. That’s important to me because she didn’t make Jill feel uncomfortable or pressured to like her, she let it happen naturally, and boy did it. I can’t recommend Emily enough, thank you!”

“Kimberly is a pet owner's dream. She really cares. She sat and cuddled each day with my senior cat, made sure he had fresh wet food to eat during her visits, and even watered our basil plants! I will gladly pay any premium to have her come back over and over again because I trust her.”

“Zack took care of Milo while we were away for the weekend. He communicated with us regularly, shared regular updates, and took great care of Milo and our house while we were away. It was really easy and enjoyable to work with Zack!”

“Shannon had her hands full with my Aussie. He is a full blown herder and more vocal than your average husky. Additionally, Ozzy was recovering from a cold and antibiotics were making him feel yucky. Shannon was incredibly resourceful and worked with me to find solutions to help my fur baby feel comfortable and safe despite his mom being far away for a whole week. I sincerely appreciated her dedication!”


“Steph did a great job house sitting for my senior cat who needs oral meds. She kept me updated and sent pictures throughout my trip. It was nice to have peace of mind while I was away for the weekend!”
“I can’t thank Brian enough for how well he cared for our boys. One of our dogs is a loud barker and quite rambunctious and he was calm within minutes around Brian. He sent pictures throughout our time away and we came home to two tired happy dogs. Hank and Henry will be excited to have Brian stay again in the future! As will we - our house was tidy when we came home, just like we never left!”

“Aleksandra took great care of my cat Nutterbutter and she sent lots of pictures and videos while we were away! Highly recommend and we will most definitely be requesting Aleksandra!”

Optimist Park Ne pet parents share their Rover experiences
Claudia was an absolute 10/10 sitter and we give her five stars without hesitation. She followed all of our care instructions for our two dogs perfectly and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She walked them every morning and evening just like we requested, sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, and clearly gave them a lot of love and attention. Both of our boys absolutely adored her. Even our older French bulldog, who usually takes time to warm up to new people, trusted her immediately and became her little shadow. That alone spoke volumes to us. It truly felt like our dogs were in safe, trusted, and loving hands the entire time we were traveling. Claudia cared for them with the same level of love and support that we give them every day. We are so grateful for the peace of mind she provided and would absolutely rebook her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing sitter!

Isaiah is a delight to work with! He was extremely attentive to Mackie, followed guidelines to a "T", sent lots of photos and kept me updated on their activities and games. His love for animals shines through. He was also flexible regarding an unexpected change in the original time frame.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience hiring Paige to dog sit and stay at my house. She is professional, trustworthy, calm, smart and respectful of my requests and my dog had the BEST time with her. She will be my forever dog sitter and if you’re looking for someone who is amazing, ask Paige. I’ve already booked her for future stays. I had the best weekend away because I never worried for a moment about my dog. She sent pictures and videos and kept me updated. I hit the jackpot with Paige and not just because I was in Vegas :-). Highly recommend her and if I could give 10 stars I would. 🐩 ❤️

We have used Alan many times over the past couple of years for in-home dog sitting and he is a great sitter! He is very good with communication before and during his stay and is so good with our dog who suffers a bit from separation anxiety. I would highly recommend him!

Brian was fantastic! Our dogs were quite well taken care of while we were out of town. Brian gave several updates and pictures to let us know what was going on. And he took great care of our home as well. I would highly recommend Brian to watch your dogs. He is very attentive to all of their needs.
Veronika was so helpful! I know that my dogs can be a handful and she took on the challenge full force. She cared and loved them while I was away visiting family. The peace of mind she was able to give me that my dogs had been well taken care of was so nice. I’m excited to book her again in the future!

Quianna was absolutely amazing!! She took the BEST care of my baby while I was out of the country for 6 nights. I am usually a nervous wreck and she eased my worries with daily pictures and very quick responses to any texts I had. Franklin was so happy with her!! She treated him just like she would he own baby and left my house SPOTLESS. 10/10 would book again and recommend to anyone needing a responsible sitter!

Deanna did an amazing job caring for our cat and our energetic Vizsla! She kept us updated with photos and messages, so we always knew our fur babies were happy and in great hands. It was great to have someone so reliable and caring looking after them. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!
We contacted Zoe last minute, about 3 days before our scheduled trip. We were her first customers. I cant say enough about how good she took care of our dogs. The husky got long walks as we requested daily. The house was just as clean when we arrived home. Don’t hesitate book her now!!
