“We're grateful we found Stephen! He came to our hotel to pet sit, putting our dog immediately at ease. By the time we got back, they were best buds. Highly, 100% recommend.”


“Allie is fabulous! We have used her several times. She just stayed a week with our dog. Not only was everything perfect with the dog but she left the house spotless! Great communication!!”


“Taylor was fantastic. She took wonderful care of our dogs and home. We had last minute flight delays and ended up needing to add an additional night and she could not have been nicer or more helpful.”


“We found a gem in Tara! She stayed at our home and took excellent care of our furry family members. Tara was very respectful of our house and provided wonderful care for our fur babies. We look forward to having her back for future sittings.”


“Molly was FANTASTIC!! This is the first time we have used a Pet Sitter. We have 2 Bernedoodle’s, Jingles who’s almost 6 and Holly who is 2 1/2. Jingles is very laid back and loves everyone. Holly on the other hand is all puppy still and she barks at everyone. We were a bit worried about how Holly would we with a total stranger. Molly came over to meet both dogs several days before we left for a long weekend. She was great with both dogs even though Holly was a bit apprehensive and barked at her most of the time. She quickly gained both of their trust by giving them snacks and giving them some love. Molly showed up on time the morning we had to leave. Holly warmed up to her right away and we had no worries about Jingles. Molly stayed in contact with photos and updates while we were gone. It was such a load off our minds knowing that both Jingles and Holly were very well taken care of. Thank you Molly!! We would definitely use Molly again the next time we have to leave Jingles and Holly.”


“Alexis was great with our doggos! We have an older dog who has some mobility issues, but Alexis was very careful and took great care of him. She communicated well, and took good care of our house while we were away. We recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


“Timothy is the man, he sent me updates while he was visiting, it was my first time leaving my puppy with a sitter and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving him with Timothy! 10/10”


About: I love animals of all kinds and look forward to getting to know your unique pet! My first animal friends were cats, but my circle quickly grew to include snakes, then dogs, and more recently other invertebrates like spiders and scorpions! While I don't have personal experience caring for birds, I am an avid bird watcher and would love to learn how to take care of an indoor feathered friend. I have experience with young pets, old pets, and pets with chronic illness. I have a very flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. Late morning, afternoon, and evenings preferred. I can accommodate single or multi-night pet/house-sitting. I understand all animals have unique needs and personalities and I look forward to learning how best to care for your pet in your home!!

“Kyle really came through for my girls and I in a pinch. Their regular sitter was not available for a weekend beach trip I had planned and we put our trust in another awesome human. He showed up for a meet and greet and my spicy, anxious ridden rescue took to him fairly quickly. We were all happy he was able to stay overnight. My girls usually dont do well with being left alone more than one night. I had updates when I needed and I came home to my place the way I left it. Would definitely use Kyle again.”


“Alexis took great care of our pup while we were away for a long weekend. We came back to a happy dog! She sent great pictures and regular updates. Recommend and will use her services again in the future!”


“Julie is top notch. She sent us pictures and updates everyday. Made sure to let me know how much Blake ate and drank while we were gone. Our house looked exactly the way we left it when we got home. I have already recommended her to family and friends. Thank you again Julie Tammy, Scott and Blake ❤️”


“Sarah came through to save the day when another pet sitter cancelled last-minute. When she saw my request, she called me right away to introduce herself and get the details to see if she’d be able to take the job. I’m so happy it worked out because Sarah was the best! She took cuddly care of my elderly cat, sending updates and pics regularly, and keeping me up-to-date on him taking his meds, etc. My cat has allergies and has a lot of boogers—Sarah was kind and understanding to this sweet old snot machine, even while being peppered by sneezes. Thank you SO much!”


About: I work as a client service supervisor at a vet. I have had dogs all my life and care for my friend's pets when they are away! I have one bunny and two cats. I am patient and love taking care of animals! I am outgoing and super friendly! I have a calm and loving personality and will do my best to make your pet feel comfortable around my presence. I work a flex schedule at the vet 5 days a week. Some of those days I work more into the evening while the other days are earlier in the mornings. I have one bunny and two cats. It depends if your pet is friendly with other animals. My bunny has his own separate room and my cats can be put in the room with the bunny if need be.

“We are so happy we found Katie :) Our dogs loved her upon the initial meet and greet and she sent great pictures of all the animals looking relaxed and happy during the booked weekend overnight stay. We came back to everything in place and super clean! Will definitely book Katie again!”


About: Animals are too good for humankind, so they should be treated like absolute royalty. I grew up with cats and had a small but successful dog-walking and pet-sitting business in my neighborhood growing up. I am more than happy to treat your pet as if they were my own <3 I am currently unemployed and searching for a new job, but in the meantime, outside of my rugby schedule, I am available to take care of your pets! To make sure your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are away, I would love to learn their typical routine at home and their interests!

“Caitlin is always so helpful with our dog Lincoln. Even when we have last minute changes or added medical needs she is ready to help in any way. We highly recommend her!”


“Brianna is a great sitter. She’s compassionate and treated my dog as if he was her own. She kept in daily contact with texts and photos. I arrived home to a happy dog and a very clean home. If you need a sitter Brianna is definitely who you would want to call.”


“Matt stayed with our 2 dogs over a long weekend and I definitely recommend and will be booking with him again in the future! My timid dog quickly warmed up to him and he was great about sending daily updates. We had a worry free weekend and appreciate how good he was with our 2 rescues.”


About: About Me Hi, I’m Pam! I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all breeds—puppies to seniors—and treat every pet as family. I’m organized, caring, and deeply dependable, and I’d be honored to care for your pup. Why Choose Me? Flexible & Present: I work from home and dedicate undivided attention to each pet—companionship is always there. Routine-Focused: I follow your pet’s normal routine closely—mealtimes, walks, play sessions—to help them feel at ease. Why I Love Pet Sitting Dogs and cats have been part of my life forever—I can’t imagine not having at least one around! I balance caring for pets with raising my son—I’m home, present, and fully engaged. We’re warmly present at all times—your pet will be with company and attention throughout their care. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to making your pet feel right at home! 1. Adhere to Your Pet’s Regular Routine As an effective sitter, I stick closely to your pet’s feeding, walking, and activity schedules to reduce stress and help them feel at ease. Consistency makes all the difference—pets thrive on familiarity and structure. 2. Lean on Written Schedules & Reminders I rely on alarms, digital reminders, or a shared care document outlining feeding times, walks, and medication schedules. Detailed care plans—not just verbal instructions—help ensure nothing is overlooked. 3. Balance Walks, Play, and Mental Stimulation Your pup will enjoy walks in the morning and evening, play sessions in the yard or with toys, and brain games like puzzles or training drills. This balanced mix keeps pets physically active and mentally engaged, which is a hallmark of personalized, attentive care. 4. Clear Communication with Owners I provide updates via text, photos, or videos—tailored to your preference. Whether you'd like a daily summary or only updates if something important comes up, I'll make sure our communication fits what works best for you. Clear, consistent updates help build trust and peace of mind. 1. Create a Secure, Pet‑Safe Environment I prioritize safety by pet-proofing all areas—tucking away loose items, securing small objects, and removing anything toxic within reach. I supervise pets at all times, even in fenced yards, and avoid assuming familiarity protects against escapes or mishaps. 2. Use Barriers and Supervision for Added Security To prevent accidental exits, I employ secondary barriers—like baby gates or exercise pens—when entering or exiting through doors. Even in clients’ homes, I discuss acceptable barrier use ahead of time to ensure safety. 3. Establish Safe Boundaries & Routines I maintain separate feeding areas and “own spaces” for each pet to avoid tension and provide comfort. Cleanliness and routine are central—each pet has its own safe zone, whether in my home or yours- 4. Meet & Greet for Confidence and Preparedness I always recommend a Meet & Greet before booking—this gives us a chance to establish comfort and go over logistics such as key access, gate codes, and safe entry routes. It also helps me anticipate quirky behaviors and preferences that enhance care. 5. Respecting Your Home & Access Protocols When caring for pets in your home, I ensure a secure access plan—whether through tested codes, spare keys, or lockboxes—and always return keys promptly. I conduct perimeter checks to confirm gates are closed, trash secured, and hazardous zones off-limits. 6. Open, Tailored Communication Builds Trust I’ll work with you to determine your preferred update style—daily summaries, photo check-ins, or notes only if something unusual occurs. Consistent, clear communication not only reassures you, but also ensures your pet’s care is seamless. 7. Emergency Preparedness Included I keep emergency contact info—including vets, local animal hospitals, and your trusted contacts—on hand. I’m prepared to act quickly and responsibly in case of illness or safety concerns. 8. Built‑In Assurance through Rover’s Standards As part of the Rover community, I’ve passed a comprehensive background check and adhere to Rover’s Trust & Safety protocols, including the Rover Guarantee and responsive booking protection. Our communications always stay within the platform to ensure transparency and security.

Johnnessa K.
“Johnnessa is a loving and caring person. She has had pets her whole life and has always taken the time to love and care for them. One instance Johnnessa found a stray pit bull and immediately took the time to make the dog feel secure enough for her to take her in her car. She did not want to take the dog home in case it was I'll or would hurt her dogs at home. She found a hotel that would accept dogs and stayed up with the dog all night to make sure the dog was safe and comfortable. She then took the dog to a vet the next day to try and see if the vet would find the owners and make sure the dog was not hurt . Johnnessa has also volunteered at the SPCA and takes the time to collect donations for the SPCA. Noone would be disappointed should they have Johnnessa care for their pet!”

Parker Ford pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ashton did well with our pets and we were glad she was able to house sit for us while we are gone! We are so happy to have someone we can leave our beloved pets to while we are gone. House was left neatly, we wouldn’t have known someone was here, and pets well cared for!

Jen was great with our dog Lincoln! He’s getting older and needs some extra attention with in-home therapy treatments as well, and Jen was helpful in doing those with him during her in-home stay. She kept us updated each day and also left the house in great shape when she left!

Kristina is great. Very willing to help. She showed up on time, followed the instructions, and sent pictures throughout her time here, specifically of him outside, eating dinner, and placed back in his crate before she left. I will definitely ask her for help again in the future.
