“Ingrid is absolutely wonderful. I received videos and texts and constant communication while we were on vacation. She left my home immaculate, and my dog was cared for and loved beyond measure. She is a Rover treasure. I do not leave my dog with just anyone. I am grateful to have met her. She is a person of integrity - dependable and true to her word. Thank you Ingrid.”
“Krista was amazing! She stayed in our home and gave our dog Bailey lots of love and attention. She also gave us thoughtful updates on how she was doing including some pictures. We came home to a happy pup and a spotless house. Highly recommend!”
“Silvia is so kind and gentle with our 3 month old puppy Jax! She has been wonderfully accomidating in every way. She is thoughtful and loving! I will continue to book with her for our care!”
“Beth was wonderful with Mowgli and Miles our 2 indoor cats! It was so nice to be able to have them in their own environment! Beth took great care of them and we are extremely grateful to have found her! We will definitely asked her to watch them again! 5 stars!”
“Kilene did an absolutely amazing job caring for our cat and 2 dogs. We got plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Couldn't ask for a better sitter :)”
“This was our first time having Jackie watch our two dogs and she was amazing! One of our dogs can have separation anxiety so we were worried about how he would do with someone new, but Jackie was great with him and a super calm presence. She really is a dog whisperer! We loved that Jackie sent pictures of the dogs throughout the day while we were gone so we could see them having fun. Since both dogs can sometimes be reactive on walks, we asked Jackie not to walk them and to just play with them in our fenced backyard. I really appreciated that Jackie played with the dogs a lot in the backyard! I think she probably played with them more than we would have had we been there. We came home to happy, well cared for dogs and and couldn't be happier with the service Jackie provided.”
“Juan was fantastic with our dog Hank, and took great care of him. He was responsive, shared lots of updates & videos (which I really appreciate), and was a great house guest. We'll definitely book him again in the future, and would recommend him to anyone.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens most of my life. I have experience raising a puppy and administering oral medication as needed! I currently have a 4 y/o golden retriever who’s a big snuggle bug! I work afternoons primarily so I have the whole morning available to stop in and check on your fur baby or take them out for a walk! I can crate your pet as needed, and I am a first responder so basic first aid is no problem. Just let me know if there are any specific guidelines for caring for your pet and they will be followed!
“Kacey is the best! She took such good care of our dogs and sent us the cutest pictures to update us. When we got back I could tell our dogs were happy and tired from all the playing and attention. Kacey was also super clear in her communication and easy to contact; that made it much easier for us to go out of town. Wish I could give her 10 stars!”
“Alexis was great! Definitely will be booking with her again. She sent pictures of my girls to me everyday and communicated to me how things were going often. She left my house cleaner than how I left it and even took a sweet picture of them and left it on the fridge for me. Thanks Alexis!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of all types and sizes, ranging from Frank, a 130+ pound lab mix, to my parent's dog Willow, a 20-pound Bernedoodle. I grew up learning about dogs from my grandma who competes in dog shows. I watched as she taught her dogs to jump and listen to her every command. My parents then got Willow as a little puppy where I realized consistency and puppy pads are essential. I have always been an active person and can't wait to take your dogs on a walk or maybe a run for those active dogs! I'm training for a marathon and would love the extra exercise. I can't wait to meet your pup! I currently work part-time as a substitute teacher while working on my teaching certification and master's online. I am coaching a 7th-grade girl's basketball team for 2 hours a day on weekdays. My schedule is very flexible and I can work around your dog's needs! I do not have a place for your dog to visit my home but I would love to watch your dog at your home or take them out on walks. I can crate dogs in your home if that is needed. I can feed, walk, brush, and play with your dog! Let me know how to best help you and your pup and I will do my absolute best.
“Once again Ellyse was a trusted and wonderful sitter. Ava was so happy Ellyse was staying here. Ellyse took Ava for walks, sent pictures and I think even got a snuggle. Ellyse is such a genuinely nice young woman. Very fast response to questions and booking requests ( I messed up on dates and she accommodated my changes). Ellyse left my home spotless, with a great and sincere note and even flowers. I highly recommend Ellyse. Ellyse will always be my number one go to sitter for all occasions. Thanks Ellyse!”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Kelly! My husband and I went away for a week, and she did such an amazing job at keeping Lilly (our dog) in her usual routine. She also did a fantastic job at sending us daily updates with photos and videos. Kelly really is an amazing pet / house sitter and I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

Kaelan S.
“I hope this message finds you well! I’m writing to tell you about a wonderful pet sitter who I believe would be the perfect fit for your dog. Her name is Kaelan, and I’ve had the privilege of seeing her take incredible care of my dog, Mister, for quite some time now. As you know, finding someone trustworthy to care for your furry companion can be a challenge, but with Kaelan, you can rest assured your dog will receive nothing short of excellent care. One particular experience stands out to me. When I had to travel for a week last year, I left Mister in Kaelan's care. Mister can be a bit nervous around new faces, but Kaelan immediately formed a bond with her. She took the time to learn Mister’s quirks and preferences, and by the end of the week, I came back to a happy and relaxed dog, as if she’d been with family. It’s clear that Kaelan has a true passion for dogs, and I’m always impressed by how she creates a safe, fun, and loving environment for them. She’s reliable, responsible, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for, whether that’s through long walks, playtime, or simply giving them attention when they need it most. I can say with confidence that your dog will be in great hands with Kaelan. If you have any questions or want to discuss your dog’s specific needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Warm regards, Michael”

Noah T.
“Before Rover, Noah regularly cat/dog sits for neighbors as they are out of town. Recently staying the entire weekend at a home so their dog wasn’t lonely. For years he has cared for his neighbors pets across the street. Noah has pets at home he solely takes care of. Noah is very kind, loving, responsible, trusting and thoughtful. His connection with animals is special. He’s a perfect choice to be your pet caregiver.”
