“During our meet and greet with Kelsey, she blew us out of the water! I was so impressed with how she handled and interacted with our 3 dogs. We have a very grumpy old man who doesn't take to new people very well. Kelsey greeted them, loved on them and was not intimidated by Jake at all. Jake was friends with her by the end of our meet and greet. The two little ones took to her as well. In addition to Jake, Gemma was in heat and I was grateful Kelsey had experience with that and I didn't have to worry about messes while we were gone. We booked her that night. She stayed in our home with them while we were on vacation out of country. We also have chickens and I was grateful she was more than happy to tend to them as well. It was such a blessing to know that our home, fur babies and chickens were being watched and cared for. I received daily updates from her and countless pictures. I LOVED THAT!! Kelsey made sure the house was clean and tidied for when we arrived home, she even washed and folded all of Gemma's diapers. I can't rave enough about how amazing and perfect Kelsey was and is for our family. We have already booked with her for our summer trip and have a grooming appointment with her. Thanks a million times over Kelsey!! We can't wait to see you again!”

“Gayle did an excellent job with our dogs. They were well taken care of and she took care of our cat as well. We have a timid German Shepard that does not trust a lot of people, but she loved Gayle. We would use her again and again!! I would recommend Gayle to anyone!!!”

“Samye was an absolute star taking care of my special needs French bulldog while I was gone for the weekend. She paid close attention to my instructions and demonstrations, kept him clean and happy while I was gone, fed him just as I had instructed, and I returned to a happy, healthy, clean dog. In addition, she went above and beyond in taking care of my home, cleaning his rugs and washing linens so that I came home to a tidy house. I highly recommend Samye for your pet sitting needs!”
“Repeat house-sitting customer here! Brody is communicative, dependable, and affectionate with our dogs! We have two high-energy husky mixes and he’s great with them. We will book with Brody again!”

“Makenzie is amazing! I booked her on short notice, and she went out of her way to make sure we met and felt comfortable. We have three dogs—two Boston Terriers and a French Bulldog puppy—and she handled everything beautifully. I really appreciate her being upfront, and her rates are very reasonable. She followed the walking, medication, and feeding schedule perfectly. Makenzie is kind, responsible, and clearly loves animals. When we came home, the house was clean, she had even washed her own sheets, and most importantly—the dogs were well taken care of. I will definitely reach out to her again!”

“Catherine, was wonderful. Meet and greet was good . She took notes and wanted to interact with my dog . During her stay she sent pictures and gave updates . She left the house neat , and left very little footprint . She was nice and curtious . My dog seemed to do great with her and was no worse for wear when we returned so I think it want well . I would have her house sit again .”

“She did a great job with our 4 dogs! You can tell she’s very familiar with dogs and knows how to respond to different dog personalities. I felt completely confident from the first few minutes of meeting her. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Need a sitter who truly understands dogs? I’ve had pets my whole life and currently raise a happy, 2.5 year old pup who is a total social butterfly. Your dog won't just get a attentive sitter—they’ll get a built-in playmate! I love reinforcing good manners and ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and thoroughly entertained. I am currently on summer break from school and am home full time. Our days include playtime at home, walks around the neighborhood, and an occasional trip to the dog park. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my front door that we use for play. May dog is also always up for play. I am able to crate dogs if needed too.
“When I arrived home Finn and Mac were happy and healthy. There wasn’t much communication during the stay about their well being while I was gone, but I just took that as a sign everything was ok. Hannah left my home in the same state as when I left.”

“Our animals were so happy when we got home after Madison stayed here and the house was so clean when we got home. Madison was great and we will definitely have him come again next time we need a house sitter!!”

“Hannah was great with my two hound dogs! I got updates and photos and they were well taken care of. She was very respectful of my apartment and left it super clean and organized! It was great knowing my dogs were safe and happy while I was away!”

“Mark was amazing with our 3 dogs. We were very hesitant to leave them with someone we didn't know for a week and a half. But, Mark was so great to come over beforehand to meet us and meet the girls to make sure it was going to be a good fit for everyone. Mark was great with asking questions and making sure he understood our expectations before we left. While at our house, he did all the dogs' favorite things with them - long walks, runs, rides in the truck, snuggles on the couch. He kept us posted with pictures and videos and updates. When we got home, he had the house looking even better than we'd left it. We will definitely be looking to Mark first whenever we need someone to care for our girls.”

“Maretta is a jewel! She is so good with animals. My Winston has allergies and needed a specific routine at night that was never missed! Her really took to her and was so comfortable with her, not anxious like the past. Every little thing was done perfectly and with love an care. She's a real jewel!”

“This was my first time using Rover. Was very happy how easy it was. Ashley was great and took good care of both Chance and my place. Would totally use Ashley again and would recommend her to any dog owner.”

“This was our first time using Rover, and Darlena was amazing to work with. She did an awesome job with our dogs, and we are so glad we were able to find something that works better for our dogs while we are out of town!”

“Lexie was fantastic! From the moment she arrived, she was a beacon of support, providing frequent updates and delightful photos that truly put our minds at ease while we were away. Our dogs took to her immediately, visibly excited and comfortable in her presence. She was exceptionally communicative, always checking in and ensuring that she fully understood and addressed all our specific needs regarding their care. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and went above and beyond to make sure they felt loved and secure.”

“Victoria did an amazing job watching Copper. She was very attentive to his needs and gave him plenty of exercise with a 1-2 mile walk every day. She gave him tons of love and potty breaks frequently.”

Palmyra pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kelsey went above and beyond while caring for our dogs. She provided excellent communication the entire time and kept us updated with messages and photos. One of our puppies had an upset tummy and made several messes, and Kelsey handled everything with so much patience and kindness. She cleaned everything up without hesitation and took such great care of them through it all. It was obvious she truly cared about our dogs, and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Cheylynn was amazing! She stayed overnight with my pups and took such great care of them. I got lots of photos and frequent updates, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I came home to happy, relaxed dogs and everything in perfect shape. I will absolutely be booking with them again!
