“Allie was a fantastic dog sitter for our very fearful adult dog. She was patient, loving, and persistent without pushing too much. We got lots of photos and videos while we were away, and we came home to a clean house and a happy dog. We feel so lucky to have found Allie and will definitely have her dog and house sit again in the future.”


“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!”


“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”


“Hannah was so sweet with our 3 pups! You can tell she treats others pets the way she would her own. She is amazing with communication! We will DEFINITELY be using her skills again!”


“Alan did a great job taking care of my place and my Boston terrier Ripley. He is a great communicator and I recommend him if you are in need of someone to watch your pet!”


“Marianne was so nice and accommodating. She took great care of our dog. She kept us updated daily with pictures. During our meet and greet, our dog took a liking to her immediately and I knew we found the right dog sitter for our pet. Will definitely call on her again.”


“Kathy is the best! She is reliable, knowledgeable, jovial, and truly loves animals. After our return from three weeks abroad, we could tell that Kathy gave our two puppies lots of attention and love. They also became more social and calmer with people and Kathy trained them to listen better. Although the puppies' wellbeing was the most important to use in selecting a friend for them, Kathy was also a great house sitter, instrumental in helping us connect with an A/C repairman across continents and kept everything neat and running. Thank you, Kathy!”


“Cindy took care of our Pitty for 10 days while we were out of the country and she did an amazing job. Lots of update pictures and videos. Our pitty has a pretty structured scheduled as she’s still in puppyhood and Cindy did everything we needed. We will be booking her again!”


“Shannon was amazing. She hit it off with my two dogs right away. They slept with her and she did amazing. I will use her again when needed. Oh, and the house was spotless. Pick Shannon, you won't be disappointed.”


“Brianna was an absolute delight and wonderful house/cat sitter. She consistently communicated with us including videos and photos. Before our trip was over I had already booked Brianna for our next trip 😁. I highly recommend her for any of your pet needs. She showed my sweet cat all the love and I never worried about her.”


“Sasha did a great job going above and beyond to make sure the dogs and our house were taken care of and that we felt assured that we had nothing to worry about. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”


“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!”


“Kacee sat both our greyhounds in our home for a few hours. We’ve had these two for less than a month and were honest about our lack of 100% comfort with their ability to get along. She was not scared off when we mentioned muzzles, but both our pooches were calm and comfortable around her, which is a testament to her “dog whisperer” abilities. We will definitely be having Kacee back!”


“Kimberly was great at caring for our crazy dog while we were gone. She kept us updated and sent lots of photos. I felt comforted and eased while she watched our dog. We can't wait to use her again!”


About: I’ve grown up with pets and have always been the go to sitter for friends and family. I may not have formal experience yet, but I’m reliable, compassionate, and I truly enjoy caring for animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs and personality so they feel safe and loved. I am most experienced with dogs! I’m currently working full time so I’m available Wednesday through Friday every week, and every other Saturday. I work Sunday through Tuesday and every other Saturday so I’m unavailable on those days. I’m happy to offer morning, afternoon, or evening visits on the days I’m off and can be flexible with advance notice! I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment for pets in my care. I live in a small apartment and have a friendly small dog who gets along well with other pups. Because of my space and my current pet, I’m best suited for small sized dogs and even medium sized dogs who are comfortable in a smaller setting and around other dogs. I’m not able to accommodate larger dogs in my home at this time. I always supervise interactions to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. Pets in my care get plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I treat every pet like family and do my best to follow their routine to help them feel at home.

Optimist Park Se pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alan was absolutely phenomenal! We had him stay in our home with our two dogs for four nights and each morning and evening he provided through updates and pictures to let us know our pups were well taken care of. We never had to worry about them because Alan put us at ease that our pups were thriving. Our dogs can’t wait until we leave town again so they get to hangout with him once more!

Desiree was great! She accepted an emergency booking after our prior River sitter cancelled mid booking. From the pictures she sent, it’s clear she immediately put our dog at ease and treated him like her own. I would definitely have Desiree sit for us again!

Rozanne is everything and more in a pet sitter. She was on time, sent pictures, videos and updates while we were gone, followed our pets schedules perfectly and even brought a toy for them. You can tell she cares a great deal for our fur babies and we will definitely reach out to her again in the future.
Brenna is a lovely, highly caring and competent caregiver. We were thrilled with her care of our pup and our home. She is thoughtful, responsive, conscientious, and genuinely a kind soul who made our nervous dog feel safe and loved. We highly recommend Brenna, who went above and beyond expectations!

Meredith took such great care of my pets while I was away! I came home to a clean space with all four fur babies happy, healthy, and chilling. She provided regular updates and photos while I was away. I highly recommend booking Meredith for your pet care needs, five star experience

Shelby did an amazing job caring for our dog and home while we were away. She sent regular updates, which gave us peace of mind. Our dog was happy and well cared for, and the house was spotless when we returned. We’d gladly have her back and highly recommend her!

Mackenzie is wonderful! My husband and I never used Rover before and Mackenzie made the whole process seamless and comfortable. She was great about keeping us updated on our pups with texts and pictures. We will definitely be using her in the future. Hazel & Eddy miss her already!
