Heather was a godsend! I had only had my 1.5 y/o dog for about two weeks before I needed someone to come and stay at the house with her. I sought out Heather on Rover and could not have been happier. She was extremely communicative from the moment I reached out prior to our meeting and greet, until the minute she left my house. She not only provided text updates but also loads of pics from her stay. She was trustworthy and took special care of my dog and the house. I would not hesitate to book Heather again, and very likely will soon! Thank you Heather for giving me peace of mind while I was out of town. :)

Kayla was a fantastic fur baby sitter! My dogs absolutely adored her, they were well cared for, and I was kept in the loop with their daily activities. I absolutely recommend Kayla, and I will be using her services again in the future. She’s kind, communicative, and respectful of my time and space. I could go on and on, but your pets are in kind safe hands with Kayla!

About: I've been around animals all my life. I've babysat animals for neighbors before and I've been a cat owner since I was a teenager. I also volunteered at my local shelter in college. I currently working from home, so I can give your fur babies all the attention they need and crave. I'm available any time and any place. I know a lot about cats and their behavior. For example, play is the best way to bond with a cat. If a cat's tail is down, but the tip is moving, that means the cat is nervous or cautious.

Kenna did a great job with our energetic puppy! She was communicative, kept the house super clean, and was overall a joy to work with. My dog loved playing with her pup! This was our first time leaving our puppy so it was such a relief not having to worry! I love that she stayed overnight- it made things much easier. She walked the dog everyday and I could tell my dog was so happy (and tired) when we got home!

We couldn’t be happier with the care our three boxers received! It was clear Hannah had a genuine love for dogs and plenty of experience handling larger breeds. Our pups can be a handful, but she managed them with patience, confidence, and lots of affection. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how much fun they were having. It was obvious our dogs felt safe, happy, and loved the entire time we were away. Coming home to three relaxed and well-cared-for dogs was the best feeling. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!

About: Hi! I specialize in puppy care, separation anxiety, and brachycephalic breeds. Having a Bulldog of my own has taught me firsthand how to handle the unique needs of smushy-faced dogs — from monitoring breathing to keeping them cool and comfortable. For anxious or velcro dogs, I provide a calm, attentive environment with plenty of reassurance. Puppies get the extra patience, structure, and supervision they need to feel right at home. 🐾 I work remotely full-time, which allows me to be home throughout the day. I do have occasional meetings during the week, but they are typically under 1.5 hours and scheduled in advance. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches of time. I can accommodate morning, mid-day, and evening walks and potty breaks. I’m happy to communicate my schedule ahead of time so you feel fully comfortable. I am fully attentive to the animals. I can provide multiple water/feeding bowls, cooling mats, toys, can give dogs medicine, and lots of love! I guarantee I will respect all boundaries and follow all your directions.

Gary has watched my dog Koda a few times now. He always does a great job- keeping me informed of what is happening and even adjusting his schedule to align with my mine. On one of my trips I was forced stay an extra day outside the US due to airline issues. Gary accommodated this unplanned emergency and made everything go smoothly. Personally, I think Koda believes he is the one on vacation when Gary watches him.

Elizabeth is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever used. I was able to go away for a weekend on short notice and know without a doubt my 2 dogs were in the best hands. She sent me lots of updates and plenty of cute pictures while I was away. She asked all the right questions if anything came up. I also came back to a clean house which was a huge plus. She was able to handle our crazy 1.5 year old golden and keep our 6 year old golden very happy. You could genuinely tell they enjoyed their time with her just from the photos. Would definitely use Elizabeth again and can’t thank her enough!! If you are looking for a well qualified dog sitter who truly cares about your pet as if they are her own, look no further.
