“I highly recommend Ruth if you need someone to watch your dog while you are away! She was very professional and she provided daily updates with pictures/videos of my little dude! Your pet will be in great hands!”
“Emily did an exceptional job watching our two dogs and sent pics of the happy pups every day we were gone. They were well taken care of and we appreciate it so much.”
About: I have been around multiple animals my whole life and have cared for them day and night. I have dogs,horses, ducks, barn cats, goats, cows and a pig. I love all animals no matter what and strive to make their life the best it can be. I care for dogs just like they’re my own kid and their needs come before mine. I would love to meet you and your furry friend and see if it’s a match so that I can make your furry friends day better by being there when you can’t! I treat my animals like they are my kids. I do a thing for them and want to make sure they trust me and feel comfortable when I am watching them I work usually from 9-6 weekdays sometimes earlier. They would get an early morning walk to tire them out while I go to work and another walk when I get home. I have one pup- he’s very spoiled. I have a crate if needed and also a play pen if you would prefer the dogs to be separated. They will have open range of the place and can go wherever they please. We will take potty breaks every hour- two hours or as much as needed. They are allowed on furniture as well.
“Heather did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs. She was a great communicator, sending plenty of pictures and texts to keep me up to date. She did a marvelous job and my dogs were very well cared for. She even watered my garden, picked up their poop and played with them!”
“Clover did an in-home sitting for us for a few days. We received a lot of photos, and they were very communicative. Clover was very in touch with our pups needs. They took care of our high-energy pup and made sure that she got loads of exercise through walks, beach sessions, and brewhound. Clover also took great care of our home. We will most definitely be using Clover again!”
“Illeana was great. She house sat and took good care of my babies while I was away on a trip. She was very respectful of my home, gave me tons of updates and my dogs loved her. I highly recommend her:)”
“Heidi stayed wit our dogs while we were out of the country and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to stay with our sweet puppies. We got pictures and updates all the time and came back to happy puppies. It was so wonderful to be able to have them stay in our home instead of a kennel and Heidi provided a great stay for them. Thank you Heidi!”
“Isabella was really good with our dog Penny Loved it that she was very responsive and open to doing a few extra things like rolling the trash out to the street since we had forgotten to do that. She’s a really sweet and very personable individual and would definitely recommend her to take care of your pups.”
“Brianna was a life saver! We were able to book and meet last minute for a weekend house sitting. I was definitely impressed by her versatility and expertise in caring for pets of all kinds. She provided great care for my dog with anxiety and two kittens! Brianna ensured they were well-fed, entertained, and snuggled. I highly recommend Brianna’s services to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy pet care!”
“Jessica was great with housesitting my pet! She was patient and kind as my dog is a little sensitive to new people, but Jessica handled it like a professional! She sent lots of updates and bonded with my dog and provided excellent care. Will definitely be booking again!”
“We learned of Hannah through a neighbor who used her and was so pleased they are using her again. I was a little worried as i have never used a service like this before but she eased my mind. She was great, she sent pictures & our house was the same as when we left, our dogs were well taken care of and she even did extras like collecting our mail ect.. We have already booked another sitting and definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”
About: I have taken care of and loved pets my whole life, and have lots of experience with pet sitting as well including puppies and seniors. Experience includes feeding, walking, overnight stays, bathing, and administering any necessary medications that are part of their regimen. My promise is to provide quality care for your pet while you’re away, communication, and lots of belly scratches and love. I currently work full-time during the week. My availability is mostly weekdays after 5:30 and weekends. If needed on a Friday before 5:30, we can arrange something with enough notice. I can take care of your pet in your home, or do drop-ins when needed if it fits within my current availability. I can do whatever you need for your pet’s care and normal routine.
“This was our first house sitting with Rover and Nathan. Nathan always responded quickly in the app. He sent pictures while we were away. He played with Sadie and took good care of our property too. Will definitely use Nathan again. Sadie was very relaxed and happy when we returned home!”
“Siena was fantastic with our dog and cat. Our dog is very skittish, but Siena was very patient with her. She was on time and very friendly. We plan to hire Siena again!”
“After having a terrible experience with another sitter through Rover I cannot recommend Jeweliana & Riley enough!!!! They provided easy communication and lots of photos completely erasing the stress I normally feel when we are away from our pets on travel. We will definitely be using them again!!!”
About: Hi! My name is Ariana. I have worked with animals for over 15 years and have owned animals all my life. My favorite animals are cats, but I love to hang out with dogs as well. I have owned and am knowledgable with Jack Russell Terriers, Beagles, and Labrador Retrievers. I previously worked at a few pet stores as a Pet Care Associate as well as a Veterinary Assistant and a Dog Bather for a few years. From these previous jobs, I have learned many things about different types of pets and their behaviors. I have a full time job outside of Rover that is an 8-5. I also have an Associate’s degree in General studies, a Bachelor’s degree in Social Sciences, and I am pursuing a medical coding degree so that I am able to work from home and have more time pet sitting! In the meantime, I would love to spend more time taking care of animals while continuing my education and Rover allows me to do just that. Can't wait to love and care for all of your fur babies! I try to be as flexible with pet parents as I possibly can when it comes to scheduling any services. I will work with anyone’s schedule to provide the best care! From the time that I wake up to the time that I go to sleep I am taking care of animals. I currently have one cat named Kiki. When I care for animals, I care for them like the loving creatures that they are. Taking care of an animal is like taking care of a dear friend. When I worked at different pet stores I lived and breathed caring for animals and put thought into each and every animals’ care. Now that I have my own pet sitting business, I want to do that very same thing with your fur babies. I would love to care for them as if they are my own and would drop anything and everything to make sure that they had the best care imaginable.
“Katherine did an excellent job caring for my pup. She arrived on time for the meet and greet and to take care of Twyla. She sent lots of updates and pictures of my sweet girl that eased my mind while away. Highly recommend Katherine if you’re looking for in home care!”
About: I am currently on a pre veterinarian track at Jacksonville University. I have always loved working with animals from the zoo to vet clinics to my own animals. I have always loved to spend time with animals which is why I have decided to sign up for rover. I would love to express my passion and help others have complete comfort when leaving their furry friend. I want my clients to know they’re with someone who is passionate & experienced with all that is needed for their pets care. At home I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 bunnies, and 2 guinea pigs! Everyday I experience hands on experience with pets feeding, cleaning, walking, and best of all giving them lots of love! At my clients home I make sure I go above and beyond to care for your pets! I will always be sure to make sure I clean up any mess, give your animal lots of love and comfort, and make sure all their energy is out whether that is throwing the ball outside, walks, or runs!
“Absolutely adore Hailey! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease. Hailey’s communication was fantastic, and the frequent updates and photos meant the world to me while I was away. She followed every instruction exactly as requested and went above and beyond to make sure my pets were happy, comfortable, and loved. What impressed me most was how quickly Hailey connected with and cared for my pets as if they were her own. It’s rare to find someone who is not only reliable and professional, but also genuinely invested in your pets’ well-being. I came home to happy pets and complete peace of mind. Words honestly cannot express how grateful I am for Hailey and her services-I would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter!”

Cat was great, she stopped by ahead to meet us all, she kept us informed while we were away and took great care of Griffin and Cooper. She’s very comfortable with dogs and immediately made us feel like she could handle anything that came up. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.
Kira is amazing. Our fur babies and daughters lizards were well looked after. She did us the honor of updating us with pictures of them the whole time she came back to the house from work. We had her stay at our home with them. Kira treated them so well, they seemed happy and calm when we returned and that was amazing for us as both our fur babies have separation anxiety. Yes a million times I would recommend her to look after your fur babies. We look forward to having you look after Kili and Manjaro again in the future. Thank you Kira.
I feel so lucky to have found Brianna to take care of my sweet 13yo pup. She was super communicative, and kept me updated with photos and her activities while I was away. She also made sure my dog kept up with her meds. She gave me such peace of mind. I highly recommend!
Alanna is the epitome of everything you could want for a dog sitter. She came and met our pups twice before her stay with them. She sent us regular updates. She took great care of the house even going above and beyond doing the few dishes in the sink and making her bed before she left. We will use her every-time we need a dog sitter. She’s a true gem!
Reese truly went above and beyond. He was consistently communicative and attentive, made sure my pet had plenty of time outside, and handled a last-minute booking seamlessly. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you, Reese, your consistency and proactive check-ins meant I never had to wonder or reach out first, which took so much stress off my plate while I was away.
Isabella was a very good and very reliable person to leave with our dog Penny. We’ve used her before so I knew it would be a good experience. I truly appreciate it that she’s very responsive to any questions and sends along pictures. It is so important to be able to leave our fur babies with someone we can trust. Isabella also leaves everything in the house just as she found it so that is appreciated as well. She is great and you’ll be glad that you chose Isabella.
We are so very thankful for finding Alyssa! She was a total pro in every sense of the word. We have an elderly blind (and nearly deaf dog) and a very active kitten, and her patience and obvious love for animals was exactly what they needed. She housesat for us over the New Years holiday and not only did she take great care of our pets, she took equally great care of our home. It was cleaner when she left than when she got there! We look forward to working with her again in the future.
