“I recently had to travel on short notice for a funeral and had the pleasure of having Cedell take care of my furkids while I was away. Cedell was excellent and put me at ease from our initial meeting. I have 3 senior animals 2 dogs and a cat that all have special dietary needs as well as medications that they take. Getting the feeding and medicine routines down can sometimes be a concern, but not with Cedell. She came in and did a great job making sure all of my instructions were followed exactly as written. I received several photos and updates as to how they did with meals and meds as well as general messages about the stay. She was conscientious about my home and made sure that everything and everyone was safe and sound while I was traveling. Great experience and I would recommend her to anyone needing her services. Thanks again Cedell!”


“Willow was amazing with our special needs and sometimes high maintenance dog! She sent plenty of updates and went above and beyond to make sure Karishma was comfortable for the week. The fact that Karishma was trying to play with her by the end of the week speaks volumes of how well Willow handled her since she doesn’t play with most people :) Willow, also, was very respectful of our house and left it in fantastic condition for when we got home!”


“Rachel was great. She accepted our last minute request and was flexible and a great communicator. Our dogs were very happy. I will definitely reach out in the future if I need a dog sitter.”


“Marianne watched our boy Skippy for a week of vacation. She did a fantastic job for us and did so much more than take care of the pup. Highly recommend Marianne and will request her again in the future.”


“Lauren to perfect care of my two basset hounds. She sent me pictures and updates. She really took the stress out of my travel. Thank you Lauren!”


“Picking Hannah out of so many options was just the best luck I could’ve asked for. This was her first time with my dog and house sitting in my home. It was also my first time using Rover in 3 years. She took such good care of my dog. He needed meds for an eye ulcer, 3x a day, he is a big butthead with other dogs so walks are sometimes challenging, and he started limping the night before my trip! Hannah was an amazing communicator and great snuggle buddy for my dog who loves to be in his home but not alone. I would book Hannah for house sitting and walks again!”


“Lacey and Lois love when Allison comes to pet sit for them. Allison threats them with tender loving care. I always feel confident that my girls are well taken care of. I get lots of pictures of the girls. If you are looking for an excellent pet sitter to take care of your pets, I recommend Allison for the job”


“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Cassandra to look after my dogs while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! She was incredibly attentive and took the time to understand my dogs' specific needs and routines. She followed all of my instructions and went above and beyond for the pups. She also sent regular updates and photos, which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you, Cassandra, for your exceptional care!”


“Shannon was wonderful! She was great with following the information about feeding our girls and giving them their medication. When our flight was delayed, she even stayed a little extra time with them to make sure they got an extra yard break. Most importantly, our girls really liked Shannon and even slept on the bed with her.”


“The kids absolutely love Cindy and her energy! This is the 3rd time she has watched our chaos crowd and they have accepted her as one of their own. We will only use Cindy in the future! Thank you again!”


“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!”


“Alan provided exceptional care for our dogs, Brady and Buttercup, during our recent trip!! His professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals set him apart as a standout pet sitter. Throughout his stay, he communicated regularly with updates and photos, giving us peace of mind. We received photos and updated multiple times a day. Alan not only cared for our dogs but also maintained our home immaculately. We returned to a spotless house. We highly recommend Alan as a dog and house sitter and will absolutely be using him again. He treated our pets like family, going the extra mile to keep them happy and entertained.”


“Brianna was communicative throughout her time Petsitting for me. I really appreciated the photos and videos she sent, too! She left my home nice and clean and made sure everything was well taken care of while I was gone!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and animals of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I have experience with energetic puppies, anxious rescues, and gentle seniors. I treat every pet like my own…patient, playful, and loving. Whether it’s a quick walk or an overnight stay, I aim to give pets comfort and consistency while their humans are away! I work full-time as a teacher, so during the week I am mainly available for drop ins and walks. For more lengthy overnight stays, I’m available Friday evenings through the weekend, as well as on all holidays and school breaks, including summer! However, full-on house sitting can also be accommodated during the week depending on distance and how busy my work week is looking! My schedule aligns perfectly with pet parents needing weekend or seasonal support, and I’m always excited to spend my time off caring for animals. I provide pet care exclusively in clients’ homes to ensure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. I live in a small apartment with an elderly dog, so I understand the importance of calm, attentive care. I always respect your home and your pet’s routine, creating a safe and loving environment while you're away.

“Shelby was amazing! Very consistent communication, sending updates and photos. Shelby stayed at our house with the pups and left the house cleaner than when we left. Our dogs were very happy when we came home and we could tell they were comfortable and content the whole time with her. She even hand fed them for reassurance. ❤️ We will happily have Shelby anytime and highly recommend her”

“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!”

When a snow storm hit our house one night, Liam stayed calm, made sure the pets were safe, and even contacted me to reassure me everything was under control.

Optimist Park Ne pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kaleigh is our go-to sitter. I don’t know what I’d be able to do without her. My pups love her probably even more than me. :-)

Can't say enough positive things about Ro! Proactive with updates, so caring and sweet to my dog, went above and beyond to keep the house pristine. Highly, highly recommend! (Especially if you have a bigger dog with a scary bark but is really a teddy bear :)

Victoria was great with our fur babies and took wonderful care of our home, I love that she spent a lot of time with them because they are used to lounging with a human friend. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone you can trust and rely on! She sent me cute pictures and videos while I was on vacation and my pups were obviously enjoying her company.

I cannot say enough good things about Quentin and his services! My wife and I were nervous as it was the first time that we had someone outside of our family watch our dog. Quentin went above and beyond to make sure that our dog was well taken care of while we were on vacation. We received frequent updates, pictures and videos of the stay, which was a huge comfort for the first time. Anyone who uses his services will not be disappointed!

Sammi was fantastic. My pups seemed excited to see her in the pictures she sent when she arrived. She also sent a video the next day. I was happy to get pictures of them while I was away She left my home just the way I left it (or better). I will be reaching out to her first when I need someone to watch my fur babies.

Sue was fantastic! Excellent with communication and took great care of my fur babies! They were extremely relaxed when I got back and had clearly been well cared for. Highly recommend!

Keyaria was great with our two dogs while we were away! She was punctual, attentive to the dogs, and would provide us with updates throughout the day. Will definitely rebook with her next time we are out of town!

Brianna was communicative throughout her time Petsitting for me. I really appreciated the photos and videos she sent, too! She left my home nice and clean and made sure everything was well taken care of while I was gone!

We hired Khrista to provide in-house dog sitting during the Fourth of July week. She maintained excellent communication and kindly sent us pictures and videos of our Tova. Her care gave us a wonderful sense of peace, knowing that our dog was in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and the house was left just as we had left it. We truly appreciate her services and couldn’t be happier with her care.

Sabrina was absolutely amazing! She had a very spacious yard for our dogs to play in and sent us pictures throughout the day. I could tell our dogs loved being in her company and were very comfortable with her. She has experience with other dogs and has a roommate pup that is the sweetest thing. With this being our first time using rover I felt very comfortable leaving our babies with her. I will definitely be using her service when we visit the area again. Highly recommend her services. She played fetch with my dog that loves her ball thrown and really accommodated to their needs. Very good pup sitter:)

Shelby was wonderful with our pup and our house! At our first meeting, she sat on the floor to give Cutie attention (a clear dog lover!) She was always quick to respond and kept us updated with pics and sweet videos, and those were the only evidence she was here. The house was just as we left it. She even washed and put on the sheets, which was so nice to come home to after a day of travel. Thanks, Shelby!

Tré is amazing! He was extra attentive to our two big dogs who both had health issues the week he was staying with us. He administered medications and provided great updates while following their routine and giving them lots of love. Tré always goes above and beyond and leaves the house immaculate. Thank you Tré!!

Took great care of my pups. Was able to do a last minute booking! Vacuumed and cleaned up before heading out as well! Thank you.

Cat was a great dog sitter! She took great care of our dog and took her on lots of good walks. She also took great pictures and was great at communication with us updates and how our dog was doing. We highly recommend Cat!

Lilly was amazing! We left our two temperamental Chihuahua mixes in the best of hands with her. She gave regular and detailed updates along with lots of pictures. She also did a wonderful job handling more complicated medicine routine. I highly recommend her and we look forward to having her back!

Camille is an angel. She took perfect care of both my animals and home while I was gone for nearly a week. I never doubted everyone was in safe hands. She provided frequent updates and pictures. I feel extremely lucky to have found such a kind and responsible person that clearly loves her job. Would love to have her back soon.

Kaitlyn was very good to the animals and she kept me updated with photos frequently. Very nice dog sitter!

Bryce was great with Miracle, he was very communitive and sent pictures regularly as requested. House was just as I left it. Highly recommend Bryce.
Rodney is amazing - my dog was sick right before the 2 week trip and Rodney came in with such kindness! He sent pictures and videos, took him for walks and took immaculate care of him as if Caden was his own pup. I cannot recommend him enough!

Lauren was a great sitter. She unfortunately had a family emergency and had to end her stay early but she notified me as soon as she found out and reached out to Rover immediately to help get a replacement sitter. She was very responsive and my girls loved her instantly during our meet and greet.
