“Ana was a great sitter. She took care of my two cats and parrot and was super enthusiastic and friendly. She even fed my parrot fresh fruits and vegetables. I'll definitely be using her in the future!”
About: I have owned cats and dogs all my life. I’ve cared for a few other pets when friends go on vacation. I love dogs and cats. I’m here to help. I will help care for your pets while you are on vacation or unable to care for your pets while you are at work or need a short break. I have a gate , my pets all stay inside, my big dog stays outside in the back and on nice days he will come to the front yard since it’s fence in.
About: I have loved dogs since I was born and have taken care of them as long as I can remember! I have almost always raised my dogs from puppies. I have experience with elderly, anxious, playful dogs, as well as puppies. I give all the animals in my care my full attention and best of care. I maintain clear communication with owners to ensure everyone’s safety. I currently have flexibility all weekdays and weekends to check-in with pets, potty breaks, take on walks, and stay in-home with the lovely pets. I give all my attention to the pets so that they can receive the best care. My top priority is the animals safety. Making sure they are well fed, hydrated, and pottied. I will of course treat the clients home with the utmost respect. I always update clients on how their doggies are doing!
“Alanna was wonderful! She spent time to actually interact with my cat instead of just filling his food bowl and leaving. She also noticed a hazard on one of his toys that had been broken and made sure it was kept out of his reach so that he wouldn't hurt himself. She was also good about updating me on his behavior as well as notifying me of packages arriving at our home. I am so grateful I found Alanna to watch my cat! Knowing she was watching him definitely made my trip away from home more worry free!”
“Justin cared for my tortoise, cat and plants. He executed everything perfectly, was flexible, asked thoughtful questions and communicated effectively. Will book again!”
About: I’ve had animals since I was a small kid. From pit bulls to Chihuahuas to ferrets/birds.My dream job is to become a veterinarian. Im currently working at an Animal Hospital as a Veterinary Assistant. I am working full time right now, I currently work 5 days out of the week and have a lot of time to myself after my 8-6.

“Darlina was great with our two dogs, and we felt very secure about leaving them on Christmas Day for several hours. Everything went smoothly, and we will definitely ask Darlina to Dogsit again!”
About: I have 7 years of professional experience caring for dogs and cats in a variety of settings; volunteering at shelters to working at training facilities, kennels, and provide companionship to family/friends while their on vacation. I’m confident in handling different personalities, breeds, and situations with care. I work at an office but maintain a structured schedule to ensure your pup gets plenty of attention and care. Pups are let out in the morning for 3-4 hours before I work, and have two other humans (my husband & brother) who come in check on them/potty breaks every 3 hours. When home, it’s all about cuddles, play, and companionship. Dogs have supervised free roam inside the house and access to the fully fenced backyard when I’m outside with them. When no one is home, pups are safely crated for their protection.
“I adopted Lucy (4 year old Great Dane) in June 2025. I was hesitant to ask a Rover to look after such a big dog, but Dustin immediately assured me that he was familiar with large breeds. Our first meet-and-greet went amazingly! She took to him instantly and he went out of his way to make sure she knew she could trust him. I booked him over Thanksgiving and Christmas because I had to travel. I couldn’t be more thankful for him making himself available to help me out. He showed up reliably (despite celebrating his own holidays) and has been accommodating to my chaotic requests. A true saint and dog lover.”
About: I've been a pet owner and animal lover my whole life! I grew up with both cats and dogs, and have experience volunteering in animal shelters and watching friends' pets. I currently own both a dog and cat, and am happy to take care of both. I understand that pets are family and I'll treat them like my very own. My current job gives me very flexible work hours, and I can easily accommodate last-minute requests. I will provide a calm, reliable, caring experience for your pets. My current job provides me with a very flexible schedule during summer months. I can work most hours of the day (mornings, afternoons, evenings) and am more than happy to book any last-minute requests for sitting or walks. I have a car so I can easily drive to clients' homes for walks, check-ins or overnight stays. I have experience running my own small business, and I understand the importance of organization, communication and reliability with my clients. I love animals and getting to know them, and I will take care of your animals as if they're my own.

For pet visits or dog walking, I am primarily available in the afternoon or evenings, but willing to accommodate to your needs. I am available daily. I have open availability for house sitting. Dogs will always be supervised! I will never leave your dog unattended. Especially during potty breaks. I will be attentive and alert to ensure your dog’s safety.
“Emily is awesome and took amazing care of my cats! I came home to happy cats and no poopy surprises in weird places from one of the cats like I’ve been having lately. And Emily was willing to check for those surprises during her visits.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family since high school. I have a dog, two cats, an 11-year old bunny, and two fish tanks.

I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog who will be happy to keep your dog company. I have light-up collars I use at night for visibility as well.
Parkway pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hilda was great! She was very responsive and very punctual with our check ins. My cats felt very comfortable and safe with her, and she shared great pictures and updates of the care she took of them. I will absolutely reach out to her again whenever I’m out of town!
1000/10 Ana went above and beyond. She was very detailed daily with the house visits and it was truly such a pleasure to have her watch my babies! She even helped with my rats/bearded dragons & i am sooo grateful. She cleaned litter boxes, water plants & brought in my mail which is so kind because I didn’t even ask her too 🥹❤️🔥. I’m not even home yet & I can already tell from the pics they loved her. Defiantly a huge comfort knowing I can trust her & will be rebooking asap!!
Natalie did such a great job. She went above and beyond to record and document her visits so well. I was quite impressed at her professionalism and quality of care,communication and attention to detail. 10/10 would recommend her services. Thank you Natalie and I look forward to more coverage in the future.
Taylor was amazing with our kitties! She was punctual and professional and it was very clear that the cats really trusted her. One of them is quite shy, but the photos showed that she came out for Taylor to get affection and food. She played with and pet the more social of the two so he didn't get too lonely while we were away. She even washed the food dishes after use! Can't recommend her enough if you need someone to look after your cats!
Absolutely an above and beyond sitter; she dog sat one of our pups that has behavioral health issues from prior abuse. I was worried all weekend how his care would be, but she handled this job with such ease. My dog liked her off the bat, which is a bit uncommon for him. She pet him, played with him, refilled his food and ensured water was there everyday. She even assisted in cleaning one plastic bottles that my dog got into when I was gone, she was so kind and respectful to the home. On top of her amazing work and compassion, she also gifted my doggie a bed, since he loves to destroy the many we buy him. Along with her kind gestures, she also provided pictures of my dog during her stay over with him. Overall she is an amazing sitter and I will love to have her again. I definitely look forward to booking her again for any future dog sitting.
