âHereâs a suggestion for your review: I couldnât be happier with the care Kate provided for my pets and home! They went above and beyond to make sure my pets were well-loved and cared for while I was away, and they kept my home in great shape. I felt completely at ease knowing everything was in such good hands. I highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!ââ

About: From a young age my grandma volunteered me to help look after our neighbors pets. But it never felt like a chore. I mean, is there any better job? I'd start with one house, & word of mouth had me sitting for a handful of neighbors! Overnight as well. Sitting was always for dogs, & I'm already a long time cat owner, so I'm the best of both worlds! I work part time as my main job, so I can pop in or stay overnight to look after your pets no problem! I'm best available Thursdays & Fridays, but can sit any night. I'm very respectful of my clients homes. I'll always leave it how it was found. Your pet will get all the care they desire, & the care you demand.
âThis is the second time I've used Hannah for a full week House and Dog sit, and would gladly call on her again. This trip even had a slight issue: (groomer cut dog right before our trip) and Hannah had to deal with my Winn licking the wound, and a small bloody cut. Hannah communicated the issue well and patched him up fine. She also leaves the house exactly as she enters it, leaving it as clean, if not cleaner, than it was left to her. I highly recommend for any service. I've also had one of my neighbors call on her and they were just as happy.â

âRebekah was so sweet, prompt and attentive to my dogs! She stayed overnight and was clean and thoughtful to send me many excellent photos of my happy dogs.â

âCathryn is wonderful! She took amazing care of our dog Lucy who is highly energetic. She kept us updated with pictures each day and was accommodating when things popped up. This was our first time using rover after changing dog sitters and Iâm so thankful we found her!â

About: I grew up on a farm in East TN, taking care of any farm animal you can imagine from a young age along with our pet dogs, cats, and rabbits. I moved to Jacksonville to attend UNF. Although Iâd love to get a dog, I donât have the time or money for it as a student-athlete. So, I figured I would come on here to maybe have the opportunity to to give some extra love to other peopleâs pets! Iâm currently taking classes Monday-Thursday, but I have long gaps and Iâm done early enough in the day that I could easily walk dogs during those days. My weekends are mostly open, depending on the week. Iâm a very active person, and I would love any chance to walk, run, or play with dogs! Iâm very detail oriented, so I could easily follow any instructions for fences, leashes, and things like that for your specific dog.
About: Weâve owned many dogs before. We travel frequently for longer periods of time so we canât have another of our own in this season. We still want to fill the time we are home with a dog in the house and be able to help out families. I work from home and my husband is a teacher so he is home mid afternoon and each evening. We are in and out during the weekends. We live very close to a dog park if that is something your dog is interested in and love going on walks around the neighborhood. We love spending time outside in the backyard or cuddled on the couch. We also have plenty of space if your dog prefers to be in a crate or on its own.
âEmily was an absolute godsend for our weekend away. I cannot recommend highly enough. She is such a professional with impressive knowledge of a wide array of animals. We were consistently notified of how the visit was going and responded to quickly with any requests. Will be booking again for our next getaway, no doubt. Thank you Emily!â

âAvarie was amazing with my kitty! She took great care of him and gave me lots of updates and photos while I was away! I will absolutely be using her again in the future.â

âWe're so grateful to Katherine for the care she provided to our senior dog, Angel. Throughout the long weekend we were sent timely feedback and pictures of Angel in various activities. Lately, taveling had become stressful due to Angel's age and health conditions but Katherine's care of her gave us the opportunity to enjoy our family trip with no worries.â

âLeslie was awesome. She reassured me Asher was in great hands and took good care of him and my home. Will absolutely rebook her again in the future!â

âMadison and her fiancĂŠ took such great care of Ollie for a week for us! I have no complaints. They went above and beyond and it was like we never left when we got home to our pup. He seemed happy, content and well taken care of!â

âSiena was great with our shy dog and very non-shy cat. She was attentive and provided us pictures while we were on our trip. She also communicated with us, and did a great job for us on our two week trip away. We would hire her again!â

âI was a first timer on Rover and with Brianna. So big choice(s) for me! She had a 5 star review and more than half of her clients have rebooked. This is why I felt comfortable selecting her. We did a pre-meet and it went well. While I was gone, Bri was great to send daily pics and videos! HUGE! Thank you for loving on my awesome dog son Daniel and allowing me to exhale regarding his care while I was gone.â

âClover watched my two dogs while I was away for four days. I felt so much relief knowing my boys were well taken care of. Clover engaged my dogs in lots of play time, activities and snuggles. I could not be happier with the quality of care Clover delivered!â


âHailey was amazing. She did a meet and greet with my pup, made me feel comfortable and my dogs looked very happy and content đ Hailey left my house spotless. I look forward to using her in the future.â

About: Iâve grown up surrounded by animals and caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Throughout college, I worked for Woofieâs, where I built strong relationships with both pets and their owners through dependable, loving care. I also volunteered at Young-Williams Animal Center in Knoxville, gaining experience with animals of all backgrounds and personalities. I truly enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. đžđ¤ I work a FT 9â5 job but am available for morning, evening, and weekend pet care, ensuring your pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and love. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routines so they feel comfortable and stress-free. Whether in my home or a clientâs, I provide regular feedings, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection while keeping their space clean, safe, and secure. I take time to get to know each petâs personality and needs and I love them as my own!
âVictoria was amazing with our girls, and gave them all the special attention needed for the 4th of July festivities. Weâre so appreciative to feel confident in the great care she takes with both our senior dog and young one, as well as our home.â

âOur pups had a great time with Jamie! She sent us pictures and updates daily. The house was pristine when we got home. We will certainly be asking Jamie to come and stay with our pups again!â

Park Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brianna was fantastic! She was very detailed and truly cares about each one of my pets needs and handled them like a pro! I have a very shy cat who normally does not come out for sitters but was loving all over Brianna by day three, I am SO impressed!!! Energy doesnât lie and she is an animal lover/caretaker to the core!

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. Sheâs a really sweet and very personable individual and would definitely recommend her to take care of your pups.

We were thrilled to meet Katherine. She was very responsive to our last minute request. We unexpectedly needed a dog sitter and she arrived in less than 2 hours. She was a perfect companion for our Shitzu âBabyâ and kept her relaxed while we were away. We highly recommend Katherine!

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.

She was an absolute delight! I must admit, I was quite nervous since it was my first time using an app like this, and I wasnât exactly familiar with the person I was hiring to watch my son. However, Luci went above and beyond to fulfill all my requests and meticulously followed his routine. I am thoroughly satisfied with the exceptional service Luci provided, and I highly recommend her services to anyone who needs someone to check in on and care for their dog while theyâre away on vacation or traveling internationally, like me. đĽ°đĽ°

Cam is the absolute best! The day before we left for our trip, our puppy got an infection in his paw and was on a pretty intense medication regime. Cam handled it like a pro. His communication was excellent and we loved all the picture and video updates. We knew our puppy was in great hands. We will definitely be using him again.

Emily was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind and took amazing care of all three of our pups and our home while we were away. We came back to happy, well-loved dogs and a spotless house. It gave us such peace of mind knowing everything was in her hands. Highly recommend her!
